Chapter 8 Qi Zhao has a high fever, please.
Qi Xunsheng slept until night. When she woke up, her headache was gone. She first sent a message to Shan Xianmin, asking her why she didn't call back.
After a while, Shan Xianmin replied: "My head hurts a bit. I'm going to go back to sleep."
I guess she must have been extremely sleepy, otherwise Shan Xianmin, who has always been very curious, would not have talked to her much about what happened yesterday.
Seeing this, she didn't send any more messages to disturb her.
Qi Xunsheng went downstairs to pour a glass of water. Seeing Aunt Zhang standing in the living room in a daze with a tea cloth and a cup, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Aunt Zhang came to her senses and replied, "They came back just now, but you said you didn't want them even if they came back, so I didn't open the door."
Qi Xunsheng smiled and praised: "Well done."
She knew that Aunt Zhang was soft-hearted and if they came back she would definitely say many sweet words to get her to open the door, but Aunt Zhang did not let them in.
"Then you won't hire a servant in the future?" Aunt Zhang was a little worried. After all, she felt that people like Qi Xunsheng should be supported. No matter what the purpose of this group of people was, it was okay to join in the fun, at least it would not make her look so lonely.
"No need to look for one. I don't need anyone to take care of me. I'm happy with you," Qi Xunsheng said coquettishly, "and don't you like animals very much? How about we take in some animals?"
The stray cats and dogs she brought home on weekdays were all taken care of by Aunt Zhang, so she naturally supported the idea when she heard it.
This was not just a sudden impulse on Qi Xunsheng's part. This time, the bracelet and the medicine had been lost for a longer time than in the past. She heard the voices of the animals. Nature was cruel and their living environment was harsh. It was already difficult to survive under the scorching sun, and there would be a cold winter ahead, which would only make things more difficult.
Instead of having a bunch of servants who are not loyal to her, it is better to have some loyal and simple animals.
Although Qi Xunsheng would walk her dogs normally, she never knew that she was a hero in their hearts. Her little animals all liked her very much.
At least animals are more sincere than humans.
After sharing her idea with Aunt Zhang, Qi Xunsheng went upstairs. She planned to draw a design herself and turn the ground floor of the villa into a pet park.
As the sky darkened, the crescent moon climbed up the branches.
“A-choo——”
She was so absorbed in painting that she didn't notice that the sky outside the window had darkened. Her window was still open, and a gust of cold wind blew in, causing her to sneeze uncontrollably.
It was scorching hot during the day, but I didn't expect the temperature to drop so much as soon as it got dark, and even the wind became cold.
Is this reasonable?
Qi Xunsheng stood up and looked out the window. She could see nothing but dense branches, so she closed the window, pulled the small curtains, and continued to draw her design.
Before Qi Yushuang passed away, she often asked her to learn painting. She was smarter than ordinary people and learned painting, singing and playing the piano faster than others. She had won many awards at a young age.
But later Qi Yushuang passed away, and there was no one to discipline her. She became lazy and stopped studying.
But it is not difficult to draw a picture of your ideal design.
"bite--"
Her cell phone suddenly rang.
"Hey, teacher."
"Xunsheng, how have you been lately?"
"It's fine." Ever since she came back from Beilu Village, Luo Qingqing didn't allow her to go there again. The consecutive dreams forced her to listen to Luo Qingqing, but she was still worried about the ancient tombs. After all, she knew that it was a very important matter to Luo Qingqing.
"Teacher, have you found anything in the ancient tombs?"
"Some cultural relics have been discovered, and the expert team is still studying and analyzing whether they belong to the Qi Dynasty."
Whether the Qi Dynasty existed is a controversial topic in today's society. There is no direct cultural relic to prove the existence of the Qi Dynasty, and only a few words in unofficial history mentioned the Qi Dynasty.
A dynasty without any real evidence is sought after by many people. If it is confirmed that the Qi Dynasty really existed, it will cause a sensation.
"Looking for the sound."
"What's wrong, teacher?"
Qi Xunsheng always felt that Luo Qingqing seemed to have something to say to her.
"I dreamt something happened to you last night. Are you okay?"
Luo Qingqing has always believed in dreams. She had heard her talk about dream interpretation before, but at that time she had never had a dream and could not feel that kind of feeling.
"I'm fine. Teacher, are you too tired? You must get enough rest. I can help you anytime." Qi Xunsheng certainly didn't dare to mention that he had been to Rose Manor last night.
But she was really curious about Qi Zhao.
Luo Qingqing sighed and just asked her to take care of herself and call her if she needed anything.
"Teacher, do you know Qi Zhao?"
"I've heard of it, what's the matter?"
"Do you know her rose estate?"
"Why bring this up?"
"I saw it online and thought it was beautiful, so I became curious."
"Don't be curious, this place is very weird." Luo Qingqing's voice became serious. "You have read the recent news, right?"
"right."
"Then do you know that reporter still has a high fever?"
"Ah? No way?" Qi Xunsheng touched his forehead, but there was no sign of heat. "What about the others?"
"The weirdest thing is, almost everyone who went on this interview got a fever," Luo Qingqing said earnestly, "That location is weird. It's not the right place to plant flowers."
Almost everyone has a fever. Does that mean some people don’t have a fever?
But now, even without Luo Qingqing's reminder, Qi Xunsheng would not go there again. Not to mention the weird location, she thought the weirdest thing was the owner there, Qi Zhao.
Whenever Qi Zhao looked at her, she felt as if her mind was controlled and she couldn't help herself. He was obviously forced to kiss her, but in the end, he couldn't let go and kept savoring the memory.
After hanging up the phone with Luo Qingqing, Qi Xunsheng took his own temperature and found it was normal, so he stopped worrying about it.
Since you've already gone, there's no point in worrying anymore. At most, you can just take a few more fever-reducing pills.
After a while, Qi Xunsheng felt exhausted all over and went to bed early without even eating.
She returned to her old self and slept soundly all night long. The chirping of insects and birds outside the window indicated that today would be a good day.
She went downstairs humming a song.
Without any other annoying people in the house, she woke up feeling less irritable. After having breakfast and drinking a glass of milk, she returned to her room and continued drawing yesterday's design.
It wasn't until the afternoon that her cell phone rang.
It was someone she was very familiar with but never contacted.
Why did Gu Yue call her?
Because of Luo Qingqing's words, Qi Xunsheng and Gu Yue saved each other's phone numbers.
Before she could even say "hello", she heard a cold questioning voice from the other end of the phone -
"Where did you and Shan Xianmin go yesterday?"
He called to ask her where she was going, and his tone was so harsh that Qi Xunsheng was impatient: "What's it to you?"
"Shan Xianmin had a high fever all night and is now talking nonsense. Why didn't you tell me where you went?"
"What?" Qi Xunsheng was stunned for a moment, then stood up from his chair. Without waiting for her to ask again, he answered honestly, "I went to Rose Manor."
There is only one place in the whole city of Los Angeles that can be called Rose Manor. Gu Yue was overwhelmed after hearing this. Why go there when there are so many other places to go?
Outsiders just thought those words were lies. Only they knew that there was a real curse on this manor, but they didn't know where it came from. It could be the owner of the manor or someone else.
The only way to avoid it is not to go.
"I'll be right there."
"Don't……"
Guessing that Gu Yue would definitely stop her, Qi Xunsheng rushed out of the house after hanging up the phone and went straight to Shan Xianmin's house.
The fact that Gu Yue appeared in her house meant that they had already determined that Shan Xianmin was not just suffering from a simple fever.
As soon as she appeared, Gu Yue asked her, "How are you?"
The tone was more comfortable than when he heard it through the receiver, and Qi Xunsheng answered honestly: "I'm fine."
But Gu Yue didn't listen to her. He still took her temperature and let her in only after seeing that she didn't have a fever.
"Don't worry about me, I..."
"I'm not worried, I'm just afraid you might infect others."
Gu Yue's tongue is as sharp as ever.
Qi Xunsheng remained silent. She must be sick to tell Gu Yue not to worry about her.
When she entered the room, Aunt Shan asked her first: "Xunsheng, didn't you go there together? How are you okay? Can you tell me what happened?"
Shan Xianmin had a high fever all night, suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, and started talking nonsense during the day. He looked much more haggard after just one night.
Qi Xunsheng knew that Aunt Shan meant no harm, but she couldn't answer.
"She has always been dull, but has good physical fitness. Maybe the time has not come yet." Gu Yue stopped Aunt Shan from approaching.
Even at this time, he still wants to step on her. Gu Yue is really annoying.
But she remembered that Qi Zhao had given her a glass of red wine last night, and perhaps it was related to the wine.
"Where are you going?" Gu Yue stopped her and asked.
"I'll think of a solution."
No one believed that she would try to find a solution, especially Shan Xianmin's parents, who looked at her with complicated eyes.
Qi Xunsheng had seen this kind of look many times. Whenever something happened to someone around her, no matter how big or small, they would blame her, thinking that she was unlucky.
Qi Xunsheng didn't explain much and just turned and left.
"Take care of him." Gu Yue and another girl of the same age in the room, who was a senior student with whom Shan Xianmin had a good relationship, advised.
After giving the instructions, Gu Yue chased out and stopped Qi Xunsheng at the door when he was about to leave.
"where did you go?"
"I have a solution. I'll be right back."
"I'll go with you."
"No need," Qi Xunsheng said calmly, "Aren't you afraid that I'll bring disaster to you now?"
Gu Yue paused, and at this time, Qi Xunsheng stopped a car, opened the door, sat down, closed the door, and reported the address in one go.
Gu Yue came back to his senses and looked at the car that was driving away. He opened his lips but no words came out.
Qi Xunsheng had seen that kind of look many times, so when she met Gu Yue for the first time, she could see that she disliked her, just like those people.
The last time I came here was in the middle of the night, and now it’s daytime. I don’t know if I can still find Qi Zhao so easily.
It was still the same place where the fence broke last time. There was no one guarding it, so I walked in according to my memory.
She was lucky enough to find the castle and see Qi Zhao in it. She was half lying on the sofa, shaking a wine glass in her hand, but this time the liquid was green.
This man seems to like drinking very much.
Qi Zhao raised his eyes to look at her and said the same thing as last time: "Whose child is this, so ignorant of etiquette."
Time was running out. If she stayed any longer, Dan Xianmin would suffer more pain and torture. She could only hurry up.
So she didn't respond to Qi Zhao's words, but walked slowly to the sofa where she was lying, squatted down and looked up at her.
Qi Zhao tilted his head, not understanding her action. He pulled the corner of his lips and was about to speak when the person who was squatting in front of him and looking up at her suddenly stood on tiptoe, came forward, and kissed her lips.
Although they hadn't seen each other for only one night, it was a kiss they hadn't seen in a long time. Qi Zhao's eyes were much clearer, and he looked at her quietly.
Qi Xunsheng's cheeks felt hot as she confirmed in her heart, it was just like this last time, Qi Zhao was very happy, and she was like this today too, Qi Zhao must be very happy too, right?
After the kiss, she took a steady breath and spread out her palms——
"Medicine, antidote, medicine to reduce fever."
Afraid that she wouldn't understand, Qi Xunsheng explained everything clearly in one breath.
Qi Zhao laughed out of anger, looking at her mockingly: "You forcefully kiss me, and then ask me for the antidote?"
How could Qi Xunsheng not know that she was inexplicably confused, but there was no other way now. The two of them came here together, and only she was fine. It must be Qi Zhao who gave her the antidote.
She bit her lip, clasped her hands together and placed them on her chest, as if making a wish. She looked up at her with an aggrieved expression, and spoke softly.
"Please, please."
"Qi Zhao Qi Zhao, please."
