At night, severe pain came.
Lu Nange suddenly arched his body in his sleep and felt as if there were thousands of steel needles stirring inside his head and his temples were throbbing.
She subconsciously put her hand on her forehead, and the skin she touched was frighteningly hot.
Her consciousness gradually faded in the high temperature, and her instinct for survival forced her to take out the antipyretic medicine from her system backpack and swallow it.
The rustling sound of plastic packaging woke Gu Wan up.
"Nannan? Nannan!" Gu Wan called her softly.
Lu Nange managed to say "hmm", his voice so weak that it was barely audible.
The cold light of the flashlight came on, and Gu Wan could see Lu Nange's red face clearly in the light.
She reached out her hand, and the warmth from her palm made her heart tighten.
"How could it burn like this..."
Gu Wan suddenly opened the door and rushed out.
At the stairs, Lu Xici and Chi Yanzhou, who were on guard, looked up at the same time, and the beams of their flashlights intersected and fixed on Gu Wan's staggering figure.
"Gu Wan? What happened?" Chi Yanzhou's voice was tense.
"Nannan...Nannan is burning hot!" Gu Wan's voice was trembling.
The two men's faces suddenly changed, and without saying a word they ran towards the classroom where the girls were resting.
The noise woke up the others.
When Gu Qi and his companions pushed open the door of the lounge, they were knocked off balance by Lu Beiye who was passing by in the night wind - the figure had already rushed to the next room.
When everyone rushed into the classroom, Lu Xici and Lu Beiye were already kneeling beside the mat.
Under the dust floating in the beam of light, Lu Nange's porcelain-white skin was abnormally flushed.
"Nannan has clearly awakened her special powers..." Gu Wan's voice was interrupted by the sound of Chi Yanzhou rummaging through supplies.
Lu Xici's fingertips brushed across the empty medicine plate next to the mat: "Nannan has taken antipyretic medicine."
Chi Yanzhou stood up: "I'm going to find Wen Qing!"
Gu Wan immediately followed: "Brother Yanzhou, my brother and I will go with you."
Lu Xici's Adam's apple rolled: "...Thank you!"
Lu Beiye held Lu Nange's hand, his eyes reddened, and his lips silently whispered "sister".
Lu Xici looked up at He Zhuo and the others, his voice full of fatigue: "Old He, you guys go and rest first, A Ye and I will take care of Nan Nan."
He Zhuo nodded silently and retreated with his men.
Chi Yi stood in the shadow of the corridor and whispered, "Master He, Master Ji, I'll go to the stairs to guard first! You go and rest first."
"How can I sleep?" He Zhuo rubbed his face and said in a deep voice, "Wait until Brother Yan takes Wen Qing to see my sister's condition before we talk!"
Soon, Chi Yanzhou and the other two hurried upstairs with Wen Qing.
A faint green light appeared in Wen Qing's palm, covering Lu Nange's forehead.
After a moment, her lips turned pale and she retracted her supernatural power.
"Miss Lu seems to have awakened a superpower, and her body functions are experiencing a stress response. My healing system is useless, so she can only rely on herself!"
Lu Xici closed his eyes and said in a very soft voice: "...Thank you."
Gu Wanyan stepped forward and said softly, "Sister Wen Qing, it's almost dawn, why don't you rest here with us?"
After everyone left, only the three siblings of the Lu family were left in the classroom.
Lu Xici reached out and rubbed Lu Beiye's hair, and said in a soft voice: "Do you want to sleep a little longer?"
"To accompany my sister." The child shook his head stubbornly, staring at Lu Nange without blinking.
"Then lie down with your sister for a while?" Lu Xici patted the cushion gently: "Brother will watch over you."
Lu Beiye didn't move, but just silently moved closer to the mat. His thin figure looked particularly stubborn in the dim light.
As the morning light climbed up the window lattice, the rooftop was still shrouded in depressing silence.
