As soon as Shao Jingque said this, Qi Shengzhi, who had been as competitive as a fighting cock just now, froze instantly. The next second, he immediately turned into a frost-bitten eggplant, with a gray face.
I always thought that he just couldn't win an argument with Yue Feiying, but I didn't expect that Shao Jingque's attack power was even stronger than Yue Feiying's.
Such a short sentence could cause such great harm, and it was also a heart-wrenching truth, leaving him powerless to fight back.
If Yue Feiying cared about him and was worried about him, she wouldn't have locked the door of her room...
In fact, Shao Jingque himself was not at peace either——
What she really thought was exactly the opposite of what she said.
When she heard that Qi Shengzhi was deliberately doing something bad, her first reaction was to worry that Lu Zhan would misunderstand. Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated and she felt very uneasy.
But the next second, she suddenly realized that her reaction clearly meant that she still hadn't let go of Lu Zhan, which was why she cared so much about his opinion. She immediately reminded herself to calm down.
After all, they had just had a meal together, but her heart became restless again, which showed that her position towards Lu Zhan was not very firm.
It was a good opportunity for her to take advantage of Qi Shengzhi's provocation to create an insurmountable barrier. Otherwise, she was worried that she would be shaken and would start to have some bizarre ideas.
That night, the lights on the two floors of No. 1 Wuhuai Street were on all night.
The next morning, when Shao Jingque went downstairs, Qi Shengzhi was nowhere to be seen. Ding Ling and Yue Feiying had not returned from Yue Mansion last night either.
She had no appetite, but thinking that the baby in her belly needed nutrition, she made herself a glass of milk before going out.
When I stepped out of the door, I found that it had snowed all night last night. By the morning, the yard was covered with a thick layer of snow, which was easily above my ankles when I stepped on it.
Shao Jingque thought for a moment and went back to his room to change into a pair of high-top boots.
Ever since she fainted from vomiting last time, she has made up her mind to take good care of herself and her child. Now that she has made up her mind to raise the child alone, she can no longer do whatever she wants like before, and she has to consider everything more comprehensively.
When he arrived at the store, there were still as many customers as usual. Shao Jingque felt a little more at ease when things got busy.
Who knew that after a while, a figure carrying large and small bags stumbled in and shouted anxiously:
"Sister Jingque! Sister Jingque!"
Shao Jingque heard the voice and looked back, and found that the person coming was Lu Qiuya.
She hurried over, took Lu Qiuya's hand and asked:
"Didn't you take the train back home this morning? Why are you here now?"
Lu Qiuya had obviously been running all the way here, and after she stopped, she was breathing heavily.
Seeing this, Shao Jingque quickly poured her a glass of warm water and handed it to her. She drank the water in one breath before she recovered and said breathlessly:
"Sister Jingque, my train is about to leave. If I don't leave now, I will miss it, but my brother..."
Shao Jingque's heart tightened, and he quickly asked:
"What happened to your brother?"
Lu Qiuya's face flushed with anxiety:
"After I packed my luggage this morning, I found that my brother still had some things with me, so I thought of sending them to him quickly."
"But when I got there, I found out he had called in sick. When I got to his dorm, I saw him lying on his bed, barely breathing, his face flushed with fever."
"I went to the infirmary to get him some fever-reducing medicine and fed him the medicine, but when I left, his temperature was still fluctuating and hadn't dropped."
"Sister Jingque, you're the only friend I know here. Could you spare some time to help me check on my brother? I'm worried he's in danger alone!"
Shao Jingque was torn. She wanted to draw a line between herself and Lu Zhan, but now Lu Qiuya was begging her again, and Lu Zhan was still running a fever...
She gritted her teeth and finally agreed:
"Okay, I'll go check it out later."
Lu Qiuya excitedly hugged Shao Jingque and shouted happily:
"Thank you, Sister Jingque! I'll go catch the bus first. I'll leave my brother to you!"
At this point, Shao Jingque could only give a brief explanation to Li Fen and hurried to the military area - a fever for an ordinary person is not a trivial matter, and Lu Zhan had just undergone brain surgery, so he had to be extra careful.
When she arrived outside the military district, the sentry asked her who she was looking for. She answered truthfully that she was looking for Lu Zhan, but when the sentry asked about her relationship with Lu Zhan, she hesitated and could not answer.
At this moment, the young soldier who had stopped Shao Jingque at the military district gate last time recognized her and shouted in surprise:
"Isn't this my sister-in-law? Sister-in-law, you're here to see Captain Lu!"
Shao Jingque nodded awkwardly. If she said she was not one of them at this time, she probably wouldn't be able to get in today.
When the sentry heard that it was Captain Lu's wife, he immediately let her pass and kindly pointed her in the direction:
"Sister-in-law, keep walking along this road. The building on your left is the dormitory. Captain Lu lives in the dormitory at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor."
Shao Jingque thanked the two of them and walked quickly towards the dormitory building with a guilty conscience.
Seeing the door of the innermost dormitory on the fourth floor, Shao Jingque became nervous again. He raised his hand but hesitated before knocking. At one point, he even wanted to turn around and leave.
Just then, a burst of rapid coughing came from inside the door. Her heart tightened and she immediately knocked on the dormitory door.
After a long while, the dormitory door slowly opened. Lu Zhan stood behind the door with a pale face. When he saw that the person standing outside was Shao Jingque, his originally dull eyes suddenly lit up, and he was a little bit disbelieving:
"Why...are you here?"
Shao Jingque bit her lower lip, and her almond-shaped eyes carefully examined Lu Zhan's expression:
"Qiuya said you had a high fever and she was in a hurry to catch a train, so she asked me to come and see you."
Lu Zhan was stunned for a moment, then frowned, bent over and took a step back, and suddenly started coughing violently again:
“Ahem…”
Upon seeing this, Shao Jingque hurried forward to support him, and helped him sit down on the bed. He placed his hand on his forehead, his face darkening.
It was indeed a little hot. This time Qiuya didn't lie to her. Her brother did have a fever.
Her icy little hand suddenly touched Lu Zhan's forehead. The cold touch made him squint his eyes, but before he could feel it for even a second, Shao Jingque took her hand away from his forehead.
Shao Jingque put the things in his hand on the desk and reached out to take the medicine bag on the table, but his eyes were immediately attracted by the two dry branches stuck in the water cup.
Why does it look a bit like the branches of wintersweet flowers?
