Lu Ying reached out and touched his forehead. It was burning hot, and judging from his expression, he was more than just angry.

After thinking for a while, Lu Ying carried Shen Ci on her back: “Let’s go to the clinic.”

Lu Ying remembered that the clinic was not far away, and Shen Ci had to see a doctor no matter what.

"By the way, Qingyue, send someone to Yipinzhai to inform Qing'er and let him know the situation here."

But just as Lu Ying finished speaking, Shen Ci grabbed her hand. He was so weak that he even had difficulty speaking, but he still said, "No, let my brother know."

Lu Ying: "But..."

"Please." Chen Ci didn't want Qing'er to worry about him. His brother already felt that he owed him. If he knew that he was almost bullied, he would definitely blame himself and think that it was his fault for not protecting him well enough.

With Shen Ci begging like this, Lu Ying had no choice but to agree.

Lu Ying carried Shen Ci downstairs and went straight to the clinic with Ye Qingyue.

-

"He already had a fever, and he was given medicine that would make his body weak and powerless, so this happened. Don't worry too much. I will prescribe medicine now, and he will be fine after taking it." After taking the pulse, the doctor quickly prescribed medicine and asked the apprentice to go to the back hall to boil the medicine.

After taking the medicine, Shen Ci's body still did not recover. He lay on the bed in the clinic and fell asleep due to fever and physical weakness.

The young man lying on the bed had delicate and beautiful eyes and eyebrows, like a beautiful flower in spring, but now the delicate flower looked a little weak. He was quiet and well-behaved, and looking at him made people feel pity for him.

Ye Qingyue sat down on the edge of the bed, his eyes falling on the young man on the bed.

Suddenly, the young man reached out and grabbed Ye Qingyue's hand.

Ye Qingyue's pupils widened and she was suddenly startled. She was usually calm and indifferent, but now she was suddenly moved.

Ye Qingyue looked up and saw that the young man seemed to be in a nightmare, muttering "Brother, brother" all the time.

She frowned and tried to pull her hand away, but the more she tried, the tighter the boy held on.

Ye Qingyue stretched out his hand to wake the boy up, but just as he reached out his hand, he stopped when he saw the indigo in the boy's eyes.

He doesn't seem to have slept very well recently.

Chen Ci really hasn't been getting enough sleep recently. He has to write a storybook and prepare for the examination at the provincial school.

He knew that the world was so big and there were many more talented people than him. If he wanted to be better than others, he could only work harder and be more diligent.

Never mind, just let him catch it.

Ye Qingyue withdrew his hand.

However, Ye Qingyue had never been touched by a boy before. At this moment, her hand was held by the boy, and the warmth of the breeze from the boy's hand was transmitted to her body. She felt a little uncomfortable. Being held like this, Ye Qingyue could feel the slightly rough calluses on the boy's fingertips.

She met the boy three times in total, and each time left a deep impression on her.

The first time was at the door of Yipinzhai.

The most recent time is now.

The second time was when they were wasting time at the provincial school. Maybe the boy felt that there were too many people around and she didn't see him, but she did see him. However, no matter that they had only met once or because of the occasion, she couldn't say hello to the boy.

Shen Ci did have a nightmare.

He dreamed that Yang Han pounced on him and humiliated him. Shen Ci felt the despair burning from the depths of his heart.

The scene changed, and the person being pinned down by Yang Han was not him, but his brother Qing'er.

Shen Ci tried desperately to help Qing'er, but there was nothing he could do.
