She was half asleep when she heard Hongrui's voice.
The medicine was bitter, and she didn't want to drink it, but she heard a soft voice coaxing her, "Be good, drink your medicine."
"After you finish drinking, I'll give you candy."
That voice, so close, yet so gentle.
She took the medicine, and Xiao Zhongxuan handed her a sugar pill. Shen Zhiyi subconsciously opened her mouth and put it in her mouth...
Her whole body was burning hot, even her lips...
Extremely hot.
It was like the summer sun setting on fire.
Her lips brushed against his fingers.
Instantly, a spark ignited.
Xiao Zhongxuan's eyes suddenly narrowed, and when he withdrew his hand, his breathing and heartbeat were still erratic.
Hongrui had already helped Chen Zhiyi rest, and looked at Xiao Zhongxuan, "Young Master Xiao, we will take care of the young lady. We still need to wipe her body. It's very late, it's not appropriate for you to stay here."
Xiao Zhongxuan remained calm on the surface, "I made magnolia pastries."
"Thank you, young master."
The spring night was cool, but Xiao Zhongxuan did not leave. He sat on the roof until late at night, when he saw that Shen Zhiyi's lights were off and confirmed that her fever had subsided before he left.
Just on her fingers, where her lips had touched...
The burning flames lingered for a long time!
When Shen Zhiyi woke up the next day, she still felt as if everything from the previous night was a dream. It wasn't until she saw the stack of magnolia pastries on the table that she realized Xiao Zhongxuan had actually come.
"Girl, how are you feeling?" Hongrui asked, worried about her health.
"It's alright now."
As they were talking, Song Yuxiu pushed the door open and came in. He was unaware that Shen Zhiyi had a fever the night before, and said with a smile, "Madam, I specially got up early to go out and queue up to buy you breakfast."
Shen Zhiyi smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, my husband."
"We are husband and wife, there's no need to be so polite."
Her gaze swept over the red marks on his neck...
He really worked hard last night.
Lin Yaoyao really never stops for a moment.
Since you've chosen to die and want my life...
Then I'll see you off!
After Song Yuxiu left, Shen Zhiyi gestured for Hongrui to come closer and whispered a few words of advice to her.
Hongrui burst out laughing: "I'll take care of it right away. Anyone who dares to drag our girl into this mess will have to pay with their life this time!"
