Liu Yan became increasingly anxious as she knocked, and finally had no choice but to take out her phone and call Mo Yuqing.

No one answered.

After several more attempts, the door was slowly opened.

"Oh dear, grandma! Anyone who didn't know better would think you'd disappeared!" Liu Yan complained anxiously.

"without."

Mo Yuqing replied in a muffled tone, as if she had just woken up, then turned and walked back to her room, swaying unsteadily.

The hem of her black lace slip dress swayed with her movements, and one strap drooped down her shoulder, revealing a patch of smooth, white skin. She let it hang there, since there were only girls around.

Liu Yan sensed something was wrong and quickly changed into the slippers that Mo Yuqing had prepared for her alone and followed her. "Are you alright?" When she arrived at Mo Yuqing's room, she saw that Mo Yuqing had already groggily gone back to bed.

She lay on her side, stretching out her arms and legs like an octopus, tightly hugging a large teddy bear.

Her long hair was loose on one side, giving her a somewhat casual look.

Why aren't you saying anything?

Liu Yan hurriedly approached her and touched her forehead.

"Oh my god! You're so hot! You have a fever?" Liu Yan gently shook Mo Yuqing, trying to wake her up. "Did you take any medicine? How did you get such a high fever?"

"I got soaked in the rain," Mo Yuqing grumbled, looking like she was about to fall asleep again.

He looks very uncomfortable.

Why are you getting soaked in the rain for no reason?

Liu Yan found it strange. She had clearly driven her home, and the girl had gone home with an umbrella. Where was she going to get rained on?

Mo Yuqing closed her eyes, occasionally rubbing her cheek against the doll, leaving a few damp marks on the bear's dry fur.

"Looking for something," she mumbled groggily.

"Looking for something? What could be worth you looking for all over in the rain?"

"...I didn't look around, it was in the trash can." As Mo Yuqing spoke, her breathing became incredibly steady, as if she had fallen asleep.

"What did you say? Trash can?!"

Liu Yan didn't need to look in the mirror to guess that she must be looking like a subway passenger, an old woman, and a cell phone.

Suddenly, an image flashed into her mind: a stunningly beautiful girl, soaked to the bone, looking anxious in the pouring rain...

Going through the trash can?!

"Baby, are you crazy?"

Liu Yan's complaints went unanswered; Mo Yuqing had already fallen asleep again.

She glanced around but couldn't find any cold medicine or fever reducer, so she could only push her way in again, "Did you take any medicine?"

"No, I'll be fine after a nap. I've always been like this since I was little." Mo Yuqing seemed a little annoyed by being pushed, so she turned over and pulled Liu Yan onto the bed as well, making her sleep with her.

Mo Yuqing was burning up, even her breath was hot. Her long, slender right leg wrapped around her lower body, keeping her close to him.

Liu Yan looked up and could only see the other woman's perfectly rounded thighs, but she wasn't seduced. She sighed, got up, and said helplessly, "You'll be brain-damaged after you take a nap!"

After saying that, she looked around for fever reducers and a thermometer; if she couldn't find them, she would have to go out and buy them.

I have no idea what's going on in this old lady's head. When Liu Yan had a high fever, Mo Yuqing was busy taking care of her, but now that it's her turn, she just says she'll be fine after a nap.

Liu Yan rummaged through drawers and cabinets for a while before finally finding a thermometer and fever reducer in a small transparent box.

"Come on, let's take your temperature."

Fortunately, Mo Yuqing was more obedient when she was asleep than when she was awake, so Liu Yan didn't waste much time boiling water.

A few minutes later she returned with a glass of water and some pills, and gently placed them on the pure white bedside table.

The moment she picked up the thermometer, she frowned.

Thirty-nine degrees two?

Liu Yan looked up at Mo Yuqing, who was still clinging to the teddy bear like an octopus, and said irritably, "If I hadn't come, you would have burned yourself into an idiot!"

"Take your medicine!"

Awakened by the stern shout, Mo Yuqing slowly got up, took the pills and water glass perfunctorily, and swallowed them in one gulp.

Liu Yan breathed a sigh of relief and drew the bedroom curtains for her. All that was left was to observe the temperature.

Luckily, I arrived early.

I don't know what suddenly came over my counselor, but he sent me a message saying not to feel embarrassed and to get the necessary check-up.

Oh well, at least they gave me leave.

She sat next to Mo Yuqing, silently scrolling through her phone.

"You're really something, braving the heavy rain to rummage through trash cans..." Liu Yan laughed for a moment, then sighed speechlessly, "You're something else."

"What are you looking for? Did you drop the property certificate inside?"

"Looking for the things Chen Lu gave me." Mo Yuqing burrowed completely under the covers, only her hair lying loose on the pillow. "Let me sleep a little longer..."

Liu Yan paused for a moment, then said helplessly, "Go to sleep."

She looked at the sleeping Mo Yuqing, her gaze gradually becoming more and more complicated.

If you have the talent for being so infatuated, why didn't you do it earlier?

If you do this once before Chen Lu gives up, he'll definitely propose to you the very next day if he finds out.

What's the use of it now...?

Either they couldn't recognize their own feelings for Chen Lu, or they couldn't find that overwhelming sense of security, and in the end, they struggled until now, and it's all too late.

Any girl might lose sight of her feelings because of her parents' marital problems, but you can't. There's no one better to you than Chen Lu...
