Chapter 16 Master with a Fever
Jiang Jiu looked at the miniature version of his master in front of him, who was so adorable but very serious and stern, and the corners of his mouth switched back and forth between standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun and showing restraint.
"Laugh if you want to."
Little Ji Chen looked at Shen Qingye's twitching mouth corners, sighed deeply, and looked helpless like a little adult.
Other men would become mentally degraded after turning into juvenile forms, and would act like a spoiled child, act cute, and even cry. However, Ji Chen seemed to have no such symptoms at all. Instead, he still looked mature.
Perhaps because he received very strict family training since childhood, he himself tends to observe etiquette and restrain himself, just like a well-educated young master from a wealthy family, who is very serious in everything he does.
Just saying this sentence exudes the flavor of an adult version of Ji Chen.
"Master, how come you still look like a cold child even though you've grown smaller?"
Jiang Jiu squatted down with a smile, and she really wanted to hug Ji Chen in her arms, but because of the filter she had for Ji Chen's master, she restrained herself.
How to say it, maybe it is because Ji Chen has not revealed any flaws at the moment, which makes Jiang Jiu feel uneasy and unable to treat him completely like a child.
Listening to Jiang Jiu's outrageous ridicule, Ji Chen did not seem angry. Instead, he rubbed his eyebrows in annoyance.
"How long will it take for this to change back?"
Ji Chen's question made Jiang Jiu stunned. He carefully counted the time of other people in his mind and made a rough estimate.
"If it's short, it's more than ten hours, and if it's long, it might be two days."
Although Bai Ze said it was two days, in Jiang Jiu's eyes, this time was too long. Others would change back relatively early, in less than a day.
"Master understands."
Ji Chen still retains some habits, such as calling himself a master.
Even though he is already Jiang Jiu's boyfriend in name.
Sometimes Jiang Jiu also feels troubled, as this name always sounds immoral, especially in bed.
But now seeing this little cutie say this, Jiang Jiu just thinks it’s too cute.
"Ahem, Master, are you planning on going out today?"
Jiang Jiu tried her best to look serious and not show any abnormal expressions, otherwise when Ji Chen recovered, he would definitely find a way to torment her again. He knew that she was the type of person who would become more nervous the stronger her sense of taboo was.
"How can I leave the house in this state? I'll just put today's work aside and ask for leave."
Ji Chen sighed more times that day than usual.
"Then your students..."
Jiang Jiu couldn't help but want to tease.
Most of Ji Chen's students came for his good looks. Jiang Jiu had also gone back to the university to attend classes, but they were only Ji Chen's. Seeing him explain ancient history with a serious face, he always felt like he was traveling back in time.
According to his personality, he would indeed learn these things faster.
He also often told Jiang Jiu that the history of every world, whether it was mortals or immortals, would be almost the same. As long as there were people, there would inevitably be conflicts.
Even if he is now an Immortal Lord and can intimidate the immortals in the Nine Heavens, there is no guarantee that one day there will not be an immortal who wants to overthrow the current Nine Heavens and establish a new system. However, compared with the age of mortals, that would be a bit too long.
Even Ji Chen had only seen it on some ancient bamboo slips.
But no matter how it changes, there are differences between heaven and earth.
On the contrary, after coming here and reading the history of this world, he was able to deduce many rules, which made him gain a lot.
"They are fine."
Ji Chen cleared his throat and prepared to go to his room.
Suddenly, for some reason, his footsteps paused again, and he stopped and turned around.
"My body has become smaller today, and there are many trivial matters that I cannot complete. I still need your help. Please don't go too far."
He said this, and it sounded like a warning, but Jiang Jiu still didn't miss the hint of expectation and nervousness hidden in his eyes.
Jiang Jiu immediately understood.
It turns out that Ji Chen's mind was not completely unaffected, but it was just hidden better, and he still looked like an adult version.
But as long as she is a child, she will be afraid of being alone, so Ji Chen said this to prevent her from leaving.
"Of course, Master."
Jiang Jiu agreed with a smile.
...
Jiang Jiu spent the whole morning peacefully with Ji Chen, but in the afternoon, he heard a weak call from Ji Chen's room.
She stood up with a start and walked towards Ji Chen's room, but she never expected to see her master, who was burning hot all over.
The miniature version of Ji Chen was looking at her with misty eyes, his whole body full of fragility.
"The master seems...sick."
As he spoke, he coughed twice, which immediately made Jiang Jiu's eyes look serious.
I didn’t expect that Ji Chen, who had never been sick since he embarked on the path of cultivation, would suddenly fall ill today. This is really too bad.
His body now is no different from that of a human cub. He is so weak and must be feeling very uncomfortable.
She walked forward, held Ji Chen in her arms, let him half lean on her chest, her voice a little nervous.
"I'll think of a solution for you now."
Regardless of anything, Jiang Jiu tried to contact Bai Ze to see if there was any way to make Ji Chen get better quickly.
Ji Chen, whose face was flushed with fever, looked up at Jiang Jiu's chin, closed his eyes with relief, leaned obediently on her chest, and curled up a little, with dependence written all over his heart and body.
This made Jiang Jiu, who had originally focused his attention on Bai Ze, suddenly stiffen.
This kind of trust that allows for complete disarmament is absolutely touching no matter where you see it.
She had never seen Ji Chen like this before.
Now, even Jiang Jiu's voice became softer.
"Bai Ze, think of a solution."
Jiang Jiu asked in a tiny voice, leaving Bai Ze on the other side speechless.
"I'm not saying that, but what can I do? He's with you now because he's become smaller due to repulsion. His power might be special, and the repulsion is strong, so he has a fever. I guess spiritual power is useless. I can only wait for him to change back, or for you to help him reduce his fever."
When Jiang Jiu heard this, he subconsciously thought of some yellow waste in his mind and quickly threw it away.
"How can I help?"
She blurted out the words without thinking, and was criticized by Bai Ze.
"Of course it's your human method. You should use the same method as mortals to reduce fever. I really... If you don't take care of him, he might become a fool."
Bai Ze said unhappily.
But he just said it casually. He didn't expect Jiang Jiu to be so worried that she almost jumped up on the spot, if it weren't for Ji Chen still in her arms.
Jiang Jiu, who really believed it, immediately cut off contact with Bai Ze and hurried out to find antipyretic medicine for Ji Chen.
