Wen Yi couldn't understand the meaning behind Master Gu's words.
For a moment, she even felt that she had misunderstood something, that all of this tonight was not because Second Master Gu sent her away to deal with the Zhan family, but to let her build her own network of connections.
But this idea only lasted for a moment and was quickly rejected by Wen Yi.
She didn't want to be presumptuous and think that Master Gu would do something for her just because of a few words.
They are essentially a community of shared interests, a cooperative couple.
Even if Master Gu's scheme today was indeed designed to strengthen her connections, it was still for his own benefit.
That's all.
Wen Yi composed himself.
That evening, Wen Yi developed a high fever, and her body remained hot and she felt drowsy throughout the night.
But she had no right to be pretentious or willful. Knowing she was going to get sick, she dragged her ailing body and endured the discomfort to get up, drink hot water, and find medicine.
After eating, wrap yourself tightly in the blanket and go to sleep.
Even so, Wen Yi's temperature did not drop the next day.
It was the maid who came in to call Wen Yi for breakfast that morning who discovered that Wen Yi had a high fever. She called for Master Gu to come over, gave Wen Yi an injection, and rearranged her medication.
When I have a fever, I feel unwell and in a daze, mostly in a semi-conscious state.
When she woke up, she saw a masked man sitting on the sofa reading documents. Whenever she made a sound, the man would put the documents down.
He went over and poured Wen Yi some warm water, then helped Wen Yi drink it.
"The water is a bit hot, but lukewarm water isn't good either."
Gu Huaixu gently blew on the water as he spoke, then fed it to Wen Yi.
Wen Yi initially thought it was a dream until she actually drank the water and felt the heat flowing down her throat to her stomach.
Wen Yicai realized that this was not a dream, but something that had actually happened.
When she was sick, someone actually took care of her like this.
"I asked the kitchen to prepare some porridge for you. Shall we sit here and eat a little?" Gu Huaixu asked in a low voice.
Wen Yi shook her head almost instinctively, "I don't want to eat."
She almost wanted to turn over and go to sleep, and didn't want to eat anything else.
Fortunately, the other party did not stop her, and Wen Yi drifted off to sleep again.
But a short while later, Wen Yi felt someone calling her, "Wen Yi, wake up."
Wen Yi didn't want to wake up, so she pulled the covers up, turned over, and continued to sleep.
The next second she felt someone press down on her and say in her ear, "Sweetie, get up and eat a couple of bites before going back to sleep, or your stomach won't be able to handle it."
The voice was soft and seductive.
Wen Yi opened her eyes almost instantly. For a moment, she subconsciously thought she heard Gu Huaixu coaxing her to get up and eat.
But as soon as he opened his eyes, a face that always wore a mask was reminding Wen Yi.
Gu Huaixu can never reappear.
It's even more impossible that someone would try to coax her to eat like this when she's sick.
He's indulging in wishful thinking again.
No matter how much she reminded herself to be rational, Wen Yi could never shake off this delusional fantasy.
It's really laughable.
Wen Yi took a deep breath, trying to stay clear-headed and control her emotions even when she was sick.
“Since you’re sick, there’s no need to hold back,” Gu Huaixu reminded her.
Wen Yi's eyelashes trembled, and she looked somewhat taken aback.
Gu Huaixu helped her up. "A sick woman needs to be cared for and looked after, but she has the right to throw a tantrum. She doesn't need to make things difficult for herself."
Wen Yi did not resist, mainly because of what he said.
Whether it was because of her illness or not, Wen Yi felt a lump in her throat when she heard him say these words.
"Nobody told me."
After a long time, Wen Yi suddenly spoke these words in a hoarse voice.
Gu Huaixu, who was about to feed the child with the bowl of white porridge, paused. "What?"
"Nobody told me that it's okay to throw a tantrum when I'm sick." Wen Yi lowered her eyes.
Gu Huaixu smiled and said, "Then I'll tell you now, and that's enough for you to know."
He took a small spoonful of white porridge, blew on it gently to make sure the temperature was right, and then put it into Wen Yi's mouth, saying, "Open your mouth."
Wen Yi obediently opened his mouth.
She thought she was too sick to resist, and felt that the other party was so domineering that there was no point in resisting.
It's definitely not because I was moved by those two sentences he said.
Gu Huaixu patiently fed Wen Yi a small half bowl, but Wen Yi refused to eat.
I really have no appetite.
Moreover, plain porridge is really tasteless. Wen Yi felt that her mouth was getting more and more bitter the more she ate it. It was even worse than medicine, so Wen Yi refused to eat it.
"Eat a little more, there's not much left," Gu Huaixu coaxed.
Wen shook her head. "I want to sleep."
She slid down and lay down. Gu Huaixu pulled back the covers. "Don't throw a tantrum. There's only a little bit left. Eat it all before you go to sleep."
"Second Master Gu, you just said that a sick woman can have little moods and throw a tantrum." Wen Yi muttered, then started to laugh.
Hearing this, Gu Huaixu smiled and said, "Madam has a strong learning ability."
"Wouldn't it be better to listen to Second Master?"
"It's great, I like it very much."
Gu Huaixu did not force Wen Yi and placed the white porridge aside.
As he stood up, he suddenly bent down and kissed Wen Yi on the cheek.
Wen Yi, who had her eyes closed, suddenly opened them!
No.
