Chapter 63 This big jerk
That night, many people were unable to sleep, their minds filled with all sorts of thoughts, making it difficult for them to eat or sleep.
But some people sleep soundly through the night without any dreams.
Since being discharged from the hospital, Shen Jin has been having nightmares every time he sleeps, dreaming of all sorts of bizarre scenes.
Furthermore, those images were incomplete, like fragments, scattered and unable to form a complete memory.
Sometimes he is the protagonist in his dream, and sometimes the faces of strangers flash by. When he wakes up, the dream he had last night gradually becomes blurry, and he can no longer remember the scenes in the dream.
Deep down, Shen Jin knew what he was missing, but he just couldn't find it again.
The next day, when Shen Jin opened his eyes, he couldn't help but gasp as soon as he turned over, his eyes welling up with tears. He muttered softly, "It hurts so much..."
He was alone in bed, and it was completely quiet except for the sound of him gasping for breath.
Last night, Yan Yu applied medicine to him and even took the blanket from him, staying on the same bed with him instead of going back to his room. He simply held him and fell asleep.
But when I woke up, the person was gone.
However, Shen Jin had no time to worry about anything else at the moment. He only felt a pain in his buttocks, as if they were being torn apart. Although he had applied medicine, he still couldn't avoid the pain.
"You big bad guy, you big jerk..." Shen Jin opened his sleepy eyes, snuggled deeper into the blankets, rubbed his bottom, pursed his lips with a hint of grievance, and muttered softly, "You just know how to bully me..."
For some reason, he felt a little cold and his head was spinning, so he pulled the blanket up and decided to stay in bed and try not to think about it.
At the same time, she was also a little annoyed that her boyfriend had treated her like that in the bathroom last night. She was crying and begging for mercy, her body trembling uncontrollably, but he wouldn't listen…
"It hurts so much..." Shen Jin couldn't help but mutter before falling asleep, smacking his lips in dissatisfaction, then snuggling into the pillow before sleeping peacefully like a big baby.
At nine o'clock in the morning, there was still no sign of him waking up.
Yan Yu plans to stay home for a few more days. As for work, he'll put it aside for now. There's no rush, and he has plenty of time.
The family's maid, Wang Ma, came to his side and reminded him with a smile, "Mr. Yan, it's time to eat."
Yan Yu was holding a stack of newspapers reporting the latest news. He was engrossed in reading them when he heard Wang Ma's voice. Without looking up, he casually waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know. Wait a bit longer."
He glanced down at the time; it was already past nine in the morning. The people upstairs were still asleep, unusually quiet, which puzzled him. Could it be that he had been too vigorous last night?
He tried to be gentle last night...
But Shen Jin's soft and gentle appearance was too tempting, and she couldn't control herself for a moment, and only stopped when she bullied him until he cried.
"If he's still sleepy, let him continue sleeping." Yan Yu shook his head and sighed softly, continuing to stare at the newspaper in his hand. The article wasn't about the city, but about things in the capital, which had recently become chaotic.
The so-called chaos is nothing more than the open and covert struggles among those major families, all about their own interests. It's far away from H City where Yan Yu is located, so it doesn't affect them.
However, in the cutthroat world of business, there are occasional opportunists who reap the benefits, so Yan Yu naturally has to pay close attention, as he might just become one of them.
"Hmm?" His gaze fell on the face of a person in the newspaper. It was Rong Lan, the young master of the Rong family, whom he had met in Bai Yujin's office that day. He looked very young.
As the only son of the Rong family, Rong Lan was naturally cherished by everyone. After all, one had already been lost, so the last one would be extremely precious.
Every year, the Rong family holds a grand celebration for Rong Lan's birthday, inviting people from all walks of life in the business world and various prominent figures to attend and celebrate. Everyone is very respectful.
Yan Yu was naturally one of those invited.
However, what attracted Yan Yu's attention at this moment was not these things, but Rong Lan's face. He had delicate features, bright eyes, thin lips with a faint smile, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, giving him a refined and elegant gentlemanly demeanor.
After washing up, Xie Li came downstairs and found Yan Yu sitting on the sofa, looking down at the newspaper. Yan Yu didn't even notice Xie Li when he walked up to him. Xie Li waved his hand in front of Yan Yu and said with a smile, "What are you looking at? You seem so engrossed."
Xie Li also leaned forward a little and saw the person in the newspaper. He was somewhat surprised and couldn't help but laugh: "Isn't this the young master of the Rong family? He rarely appears in the public eye."
Yan Yu responded with a soft "hmm," because his sudden voice dispelled the strange thought that had just surfaced in Yan Yu's mind, and he could only shake his head.
"Are you going out?" He looked up at Xie Li and noticed that he wasn't dressed casually today; he was quite neat, as if he were going out to meet someone.
Xie Li smiled charmingly and said frankly, "Yes, I'm going out for a bit. My brother is in this city recently, and I haven't seen him for a while. I'm going to catch up with him."
When Xie Li mentioned his brother, Yan Yu frowned slightly. He knew Xie Cheng and understood what kind of person he was. However, the two had always kept to themselves, though they occasionally cooperated.
Yan Yu's furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and he nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll have the driver take you out."
Xie Li smiled and shook her head: "No need. It's not easy to see my brother, and it might take a while. I can go out by myself."
Since he said that, Yan Yu didn't insist on giving him the driver. He just nodded and let him do as he pleased. As long as he thought it was okay, that was fine. After all, it was just going out and there wouldn't be any danger.
Xie Li glanced around the hall but didn't see the figure he disliked. His eyes flickered slightly, and then he smiled at Yan Yu: "Where's Chen Jin? He's still not up? He can sleep quite a bit. It's almost past breakfast time."
"I guess he was too tired last night, so he got up a little late today." Yan Yu blurted out without thinking. After saying that, he felt that his words seemed to imply something, so he couldn't help but glance at Xie Li. Seeing that there was no other change in his expression, he felt relieved.
"Oh, I see. Remember to feed him when he wakes up," Xie Li said with a smile. "Irregular eating habits are bad for his health, so don't let him be willful."
He was like an understanding adult taking care of a child who needed love.
Yan Yu's smile softened a bit, and he said with a smile, "I know, don't worry so much. You can't even take care of yourself, yet you're worried about others. Don't keep your brother waiting, go out now."
"Okay, I'm leaving now." Xie Li turned around with a smile and walked towards the door.
The moment he turned his head, the charming smile on his face vanished completely, replaced by a cold indifference, his eyes dark and brooding, as if he were plotting something sinister.
Yan Yu continued reading the newspaper for a while, letting time slip by, before finally frowning and wondering, "This sleep time is a bit too long?"
He put down the newspaper and went upstairs. When he opened the door, he saw Shen Jin curled up in bed, his forehead seemingly covered in cold sweat, his brows furrowed. Yan Yu was slightly startled and quickly called out, "Shen Jin!"
He rushed to the bedside, pulled back the covers, and found the person lying on the bed shivering in cold sweat, his clothes almost soaked through. His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly bent down and picked him up: "Chen Jin, wake up! Wake up, don't sleep!"
"He has a fever, wake up first." Yan Yu reached out and touched Shen Jin's forehead. It was burning hot, as if he had been pulled out of hot water. His whole body was burning hot, and you could feel a patch of sweat on his skin.
Shen Jin groggily opened his eyes, feeling his head heavy and cold, and all he wanted to do was sleep. He couldn't help but yell, "Get out of the way! Don't disturb my sleep! I'm not getting up! Get out of the way!"
He reached out and tried to push Yan Yu away, shouting, "Don't steal my blanket! You big jerk, get away from me! I want to sleep! Sleep! Sleep! I just want to sleep, hmph!"
"What are you humming about!" Yan Yu was somewhat helpless, but there was nothing he could do. He quickly took the thermometer and, after discovering that the patient had a high fever, called the family doctor.
Unfortunately, the family doctor was out today and couldn't come, so Yan Yu had to pull him out of bed, help him wash up, change his clothes, and then take the drowsy man downstairs.
Shen Jin didn't know where he was going to take him, but he just felt unhappy and tired, and didn't want to move at all. So he shook off his hand and shouted stubbornly, "I'm not going! I don't want to go! I want to go back to sleep, hmph!"
Helpless, Yan Yu reached out and picked up the person who was trying to run back upstairs, patted his bottom, and coaxed, "Stop making a fuss, or you'll feel even worse. I'll buy you lots of delicious food later at the hospital, okay?"
Shen Jin's clear and lively eyes darted around a few times before she turned her face away: "Hmph, don't think I'll fall for your lies. I don't believe you."
It's this big jerk's trotter that's causing him pain, and now you're trying to coax him with snacks? You big bad guy!
Although he kept saying he didn't believe it, he didn't struggle anymore and let Yan Yu carry him to the car and take him to the hospital.
Because he had a fever and a slight cold, Yan Yu put a mask on him when they got out of the car, and led him into the hospital. Just as they were about to take him for a check-up, someone suddenly called out from behind, "President Yan?"
Yan Yu turned around and saw that the person who called him was Rong Lan.
