Synopsis:
The biggest fun for the overworked employee Xia Wenxi every day is...
Xia Wenxi was indeed feeling unwell. After seeing Aunt Li leave out of the corner of her eye, she covered herself with the blanket and closed her eyes to sleep again.
Naturally, no one knew that although Aunt Li had promised not to call Xia Hengyuan and Ke Shurong, she had called Xia Wensheng after she went out.
Today is Sunday. Xia Wensheng is waiting for Minghuan at the orchestra for rehearsal. After rehearsal, the two of them will have time to go on a date in the afternoon.
Xia Wensheng was surprised to see An Yun come out first at the door. In his memory, An Yun and Ming Huan were always together, so he didn't expect them to not come out together today.
Although Minghuan had mentioned having a conflict with a friend last time, Xia Wensheng didn't immediately realize that the friend she was referring to was An Yun.
"An Yun, is Huanhuan finished?"
The two had met a few times before and even had a meal together, so Xia Wensheng went up to ask him directly.
Unexpectedly, An Yun said "I don't know" without any expression.
The tone of the voice startled Xia Wensheng. It was someone behind him who heard it and replied, "When I came out, Minghuan was talking to our commander. They should be out soon."
Xia Wensheng then came to his senses and thanked the person.
It was at this moment that he received a call from home.
“She says she doesn’t want to go to the hospital, so she doesn’t?! Go change her clothes, I’ll be right back.”
After Xia finished speaking, he planned to send a WeChat message to his girlfriend, but as soon as he opened WeChat, he saw that Ming Huan had appeared.
"I'm sorry, I was just..." Minghuan started to say, but seeing Xia Wensheng's expression, she immediately changed her words, "What happened?"
Xia Wensheng nodded, "Yes, I was just about to tell you. Wenxi has a fever again. My parents aren't home and she doesn't want to go to the hospital, so I was just about to go home."
"Then let's go quickly, I'll go with you."
Without hesitation, Xia Wensheng opened the passenger door for Minghuan. "Alright, I'm a man, and there might be some inconveniences for me to take my sister to the hospital. Thank you for your help."
"What's the trouble? Let's go quickly."
With both of them preoccupied with Xia Wenxi's matter, Xia Wensheng drove even faster, naturally failing to notice An Yun waiting for the car by the roadside. However, An Yun's eyes flickered as she watched the car speed past her.
"Xia Wenxi had a fever not long ago, and now she has a fever again."
Frequent fevers are not a good sign. Xia Wensheng frowned. "We need to arrange a full-body check-up for her at the hospital later."
Upon hearing this, Minghuan comforted her, "In this weather, it's easy to catch a cold and get a fever if you sleep with the air conditioner on at night. Don't worry too much, think about which hospital you plan to go to first."
“There’s one near our house, and that’s the hospital she went to last time.”
Xia Wensheng drove almost at the speed limit the whole way, arriving home a third faster than usual.
"Aunt Li, how is Wenxi?"
"I've been wiping the lady down with alcohol to lower her temperature, but after changing her clothes and taking her temperature again, it's only gone down a little bit."
Xia Wensheng nodded and walked with Minghuan towards Xia Wenxi's room. At this time, Xia Wenxi was almost unconscious, feeling as if she was in water one moment and fire the next.
When Xia Wenxi woke up again, she squinted and saw that the room was dark, so she thought she had slept until dark. Just as she was about to sit up, a soft hand pressed her down.
"Don't move, Wenxi."
Xia Wenxi turned her head in a daze, "Minghuan, what are you doing here? Am I in the hospital?!"
As Xia Wenxi saw Ming Huan, she naturally also saw where she was.
She was quite familiar with this ward and recognized it immediately.
Minghuan raised the bed for Xia Wenxi, put a pillow behind her to make her more comfortable, and then got up to pour her a glass of warm water.
"Drink some water first, your lips are so dry from the fever."
"Thank you, Sister Minghuan."
Xia Wenxi was indeed thirsty, so she picked up the cup and drank it. When she put the cup down, she noticed a bag of cotton swabs on the bedside table.
"Was the air conditioning set too low last night? It gave your brother and me a fright today."
"Xia Wensheng is here too?" Xia Wenxi put down her cup and asked in surprise.
"Of course, otherwise how would I know you were sick? He just went out to find a doctor."
Speak of the devil, and he appears; Minghuan had barely finished speaking when the door opened.
"Awake? Still feeling unwell?"
Xia Wenxi shook her head. "I feel much better."
Upon hearing that she was much better, Xia immediately put his hands in his pockets and began to berate her.
"You're really something, Xia Wenxi! Your parents just passed away, and you've already managed to get yourself to the hospital. You keep saying you can take good care of yourself."
"Wensheng! Why are you saying that? Wenxi didn't get sick on purpose. What did the doctor say?"
Xia Wenxi suddenly felt like someone was backing her up. She glanced at Xia Wensheng and snuggled closer to Ming Huan, almost lying in her arms.
Xia Wensheng didn't argue with the sick person and pulled up a chair to sit down by the bedside.
"The doctor said there could be many reasons for a fever. When she first came to the hospital, a blood test came back normal, but it would be best to wait until she wakes up and have a full-body check-up."
"No need, right? I'm perfectly fine now, just a little hungry."
"It's none of your business to speak!"
After being scolded again, Xia Wenxi tilted her head and leaned completely into Ming Huan's arms, giving Xia Wensheng a defiant look.
"I've spoken with the doctor. You'll stay at the hospital tonight. You'll have dinner later and then fast. You'll start your tests first thing tomorrow morning."
There are so many tests to do, it's definitely too late tonight.
"Then I'll go home first and come back tomorrow... My parents just arrived, and they'll definitely video call me back tonight. I don't want them to worry, and then they won't be able to have any fun."
"You do know how to worry your parents!"
"Can't you speak properly? Wenxi is still sick."
Xia Wensheng took a deep breath and forced a smile. "No, if the fever spikes again tonight, I'll still have to stay at the hospital. And Mom and Dad..."
That is indeed a problem.
Xia Wenxi raised her hand. "I have a solution. Please allow me to speak."
"allow."
"Let's go out to eat. I can call Mom and Dad from the restaurant first, that'll be the first move. I'll come back after we finish eating, okay?"
"Ha!" Xia Wensheng sneered, "You've got quite a few tricks up your sleeve."
Ten minutes later...
Xia Wenxi was already sitting in the car.
"I want to eat..."
Xia Wenxi was interrupted before she could finish speaking, "You can only have porridge tonight, you have no choice."
Xia Wenxi stubbornly said, "Why is there no choice? When it comes to porridge, there are plain porridge, millet porridge, preserved egg and lean pork porridge, and seafood porridge to choose from!"
"Plain porridge!"
Xia Wenxi said angrily, "Are you Song Yan?"
What should I give as a gift?
Xia Wensheng glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "You look pretty energetic. Stop clinging to your sister Minghuan."
"Minghuan didn't say anything... Brother, why are you like this? You're so petty."
Minghuan also looked at Xia Wensheng with disapproval: "That's right, I didn't say anything, I'm happy to do it."
