Yan Jie stayed by Jiang Hexi's bedside all night.

He had originally planned to send her away this morning.

However, Yu Xiangwan called in the early hours of the morning, saying that Jiang Wenze and Jiang Wenjing had taken a plane to Henan Province overnight and would arrive in Shangrao Village this morning to pick them up.

Upon hearing the news, he remained silent for a long time, feeling utterly powerless.

Her two brothers, who were like paraquat-treated insects, really didn't give him a single chance to show off.

But this is for the best. She's with her family, and with their guidance, she'll be able to let go of her worries more quickly.

After the three IV drips were finished, Jiang Hexi's temperature dropped to 38.7 degrees Celsius.

The blood test results were far from ideal; her white blood cell count was five times the normal value, and all inflammatory markers were spiked, indicating a very serious infection in her body.

Yan Jie held her hand through the blanket, watching the liquid from the IV drip seep into her body drop by drop.

I don't know how much time has passed.

When Jiang Hexi woke up, she saw him staring blankly at the IV drip, and called his name softly:

"King Yan...I'm hungry..."

"Wanwan and Gossip Girl haven't brought breakfast yet."

Now that the floodwaters had receded, Yan Jie didn't know where to find her food. Remembering the IV drip on the stand, he tried to comfort her, saying:

"The antibiotics you're receiving right now are made with sugar; you won't feel hungry after you finish the infusion."

Jiang Hexi stared at him blankly for three seconds, unsure whether to cry or laugh, her heart full of grievances with no one to confide in.

The rain outside was still pouring down relentlessly.

Jiang Hexi vaguely remembered what he had said last night, and the way she looked at him was different now.

She moved her lips, wanting to thank him, but her throat hurt too much and she couldn't make a sound.

Yan Jie picked up the water glass, held the straw to her lips, and said presumptuously, "Are you going to sit up to drink, or lie down to drink?"

Jiang Hexi shook her head at him; her intention was not to drink water.

Yan Jie misunderstood her meaning, thinking she didn't want to sit up, and directly inserted the straw into her mouth, instructing her:

"Inhale slowly, don't choke."

Jiang Hexi was caught in a dilemma: whether to drink or not. She stared at him intently with the straw in her mouth, but seeing that he didn't react at all, she could only take a couple of half-hearted sips of water before lying down on the hospital bed.

When Yan Jie saw her suddenly close her eyes and lie there motionless, he thought she was not feeling well. He raised his hand to touch her forehead, which was slightly hot. He then saw her staring at him without blinking, her eyes seeming to be silently pleading for help.

"Are you about to catch a fever again?"

"It's not...burnt..."

Jiang Hexi expressed her demands to him with great difficulty.

"When the village doctor made his rounds, he instructed that if there were signs of a high fever, antipyretics should be given."

Yan Jie picked up the ibuprofen from the bedside table, poured out two tablets, and knowing that she didn't want to get up to drink water, he put the tablets to her lips.

"Take your medicine."

Jiang Hexi was about to refuse his kindness when he slightly opened his mouth, but he stuffed two pills into her mouth, and a bitter taste immediately filled her throat.

She glared at him angrily with her round eyes.

Yan Jie acted as if he hadn't seen her, took the water glass, put the straw into her mouth, and ordered her, "Drink water."

Yu Xiangwan hurriedly arrived at the village doctor's clinic with breakfast in hand.

When Jiang Hexi saw her, her eyes welled up with tears, and she almost burst into tears, overwhelmed with grievances.

After Yan Jie went out to rest, Yu Xiangwan took his place and stayed in the ward.

Jiang Hexi was helped to wash up in bed and changed into dry clothes.

She sat leaning against the headboard, eating hot millet porridge, which warmed her stomach and heart, and restored some of her energy.

She hoarsely complained about Yan Jie, recounting everything he had done that morning, and asked Yu Xiangwan to judge the matter for her.

Yu Xiangwan said fairly and objectively:

“Yan Wang has never served anyone before, but he served you all night yesterday, which is unprecedented for him. You should know what he was thinking.”

Jiang Hexi's cheeks flushed slightly from what she said; she seemed to be delirious with fever again.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Yu Xiangwan continued talking to herself:

"Since you have no ideas, then I congratulate you on being free from this sea of ​​suffering. Your two older brothers will come to pick you up this morning, and the King of Yan will no longer have the chance to torment you."

Jiang Hexi didn't expect her two older brothers to come, and so quickly at that.

At 11:40, the helicopter arrived at the Shangrao Village Cultural Square.

The propellers on the top of the plane roared loudly, and the powerful swirling air currents whipped up our clothes.

Jiang Wenze and Jiang Wenjing stepped out of the helicopter one after the other.

The two men, both handsome and dashing, strode in, their long legs flowing gracefully in suits and trench coats, with a helicopter and light rain behind them, creating an atmosphere befitting a domineering CEO's entrance.

No wonder the staff at the scene covered their mouths to avoid making a sound, not to mention the female netizens watching the live stream.

[Is this the legendary Paraquat Bro? Oh my god, forgive me for letting out an inappropriate scream, they're so handsome!]

[Even the most handsome man can't compare to my King of Looks, hmph!]

Are they here to take Xi Mei away from the farming reality show? This is too much! It's like an idol drama come to life.

[Did Xi Mei save the galaxy in her past life? She's so lucky! I wish I had a brother like that, but she has two!]

Jealousy has distorted me beyond recognition, Xi-mei. Actually, I can take your place if I get sick, just let me lie in a hospital bed and have my two brothers take turns caring for me.

After eating breakfast, Jiang Hexi suddenly developed a fever again, with her temperature rising to 39.6 degrees Celsius.

She lay drowsily in the stroller, watching her two older brothers walk towards her.

Jiang Wenze shook hands with Director Chen and said frankly:

"Thank you to the entire production team for taking care of my sister, and thank you to the six guests for their understanding and support. She has a persistent high fever, so we'll take her home first to avoid causing any more trouble for everyone."

Director Chen said understandingly, "After the program is finished, we will visit Xi-mei again and hope she recovers soon."

Medical personnel from the helicopter came over to hand over the patient's condition.

As Jiang Hexi was leaving, she squeezed Yan Jie's hand through the blanket and nodded vigorously when he looked at her in surprise.

She was telling him that everything would be fine once she got back.

Medical staff pulled the trolley toward the helicopter.

After waving goodbye to everyone present, Jiang Wenze and Jiang Wenjing hurriedly followed the cart.

Amidst the "clattering" of the rotors, Yan Jie watched as the puddles on the ground were swept away, the helicopter slowly took off, and then disappeared into the horizon.

His curled fingers slowly clenched up.

She knew he had held her hand all night, so she must have understood his feelings, and the rest would naturally fall into place.
