Chapter 034
Because Xu Jingning has spent a lot of time in the hospital since he was a child, he is very familiar with some common diseases.
Just now, he saw the person's face flushed in the dark, and he naturally thought that he had just taken a shower. It was not until he looked under the bedside lamp that he saw that the red was not normal.
If you think about it carefully, it seemed that when someone came out of the bathroom, there was a slight chill on his body, clearly he had taken a cold shower.
Even in this state, you still want to drink red wine? Aren't you afraid that your condition will get worse?
Xu Jingning didn't even notice that he was shaking slightly with anger.
Hearing his question, Yan Xun's expression didn't even change, and he said softly: "Sorry."
This one sentence confirmed Xu Jingning's guess.
"What did you do wrong to apologize to me? I'm not the one with a fever, and I'm not the one feeling uncomfortable." After scolding, Xu Jingning realized the identities of the two people and realized that he had spoken in a rather harsh manner.
But...it's normal to show some concern for a friend that Yan Xun has personally acknowledged, right?
Thinking of this, Xu Jingning's brows deepened: "What's going on?"
"It's nothing really, just some minor adjustments to get closer to the character."
This reminded Xu Jingning that the role played by Yan Xun in the second performance was his teacher, a diplomat who was in poor health but extremely determined.
Because of the fever, Yan Xun's tone of voice was a little weak, but he still managed to remain calm: "It will be fine after this period, and I have always been very healthy. It's just a minor ailment occasionally, it won't affect anything."
His original intention was to reassure Xu Jingning, but for some reason, Xu Jingning's expression seemed to become even uglier after hearing this.
"So you were like this before?"
The warm yellow light had a limited illumination range. Even though Xu Jingning was sitting at the head of the bed, he could only see half of his face when he turned around. His expression was dim and unclear at this moment.
"For the sake of a role, you can ruin your body as you please, right?"
Yan Xun forced a smile: "Ningning, I know my own body well."
But Xu Jingning seemed to have misunderstood his meaning and did not reply in time. After a while, he avoided Yan Xun's gaze and said in a light tone: "That's right, I am not qualified to give instructions on Teacher Yan's arrangements."
Yan Xun keenly noticed that the person in front of him was in a bad mood, but his mind was so groggy that he didn't realize it clearly for a while.
Then, he watched Xu Jingning get up and leave without any reluctance.
When she reached the door, she said sullenly to him to have a good rest and closed the door for him.
Xu Jingning walked back to the guest room with a gloomy face. He didn't know what he was doing, but his chest felt suffocated. He was afraid that if he didn't leave, he would say something uncontrollable.
It was not until 2874 loomed up that his confused thoughts were pulled out of their tangle.
Seeing that the host was in a bad state, 2874 asked in confusion: "Ningning, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay." Xu Jingning temporarily put Yan Xun out of his mind and calmed down. "Have you done what I asked you to do?"
"Hmm!" 2874 was a simple-minded system. Its attention was drawn by one sentence. It threw the sorted data back into Xu Jingning's phone and motioned him to take a look. "After comparison, it turns out that Zhong Yue was photographed several times and brought back to the community by more than one person."
"It's not really clear in the original image, but I increased the clarity."
Xu Jingning flipped through the pictures and raised his eyebrows.
These girls... their looks are really different, visibly so to the naked eye.
If you say Zhong Yue is smart, he has the audacity to have so many girlfriends at the same time and bring them back with a swagger. But if you say he is not smart, he still knows how to fool a few girls by making them look the same in terms of hairstyle, makeup and clothing style.
Obviously, if any photos were accidentally leaked, at most his single image would be ruined, but it would not cause a bigger impact. Besides, he is already in his thirties, so it is understandable that he would have a girlfriend.
If you want to blame someone, just blame him for falling into Xu Jingning's hands. Besides, if you want to be a scumbag, you must be prepared to be exposed.
"Help me find the contact information of these girls." Xu Jingning slowly came up with an idea, "Then send them anonymous messages according to the content I gave you."
What’s the point of just the collapse of the building? For Zhong Yue, the damage of social death is definitely greater.
————
The next morning, Xu Jingning prepared breakfast and tiptoed into Yan Xun's room.
Xu Jingning doesn’t know how to cook, so she ordered takeout early in the morning, intending not to disturb the patient, but Yan Xun woke up anyway.
My head was hot and I couldn't sleep soundly. When I opened my eyes, I saw someone at the head of the bed. Yan Xun called softly, "Ningning."
My throat seems to be inflamed and a little hoarse.
Xu Jingning responded and handed over the thermometer: "Measure it yourself."
His temper came suddenly last night. Half of his anger was because he was annoyed that Yan Xun didn't care about him, and the other half was because he felt that the fever was not serious and it shouldn't be a big deal if he let it dry overnight.
I didn't expect the temperature to be over 38 degrees.
"Do we need to go to the hospital?" After all, Xu Jingning was not a professional doctor, so he was a little unsure and immediately opened the map to look for nearby hospitals.
But Yan Xun stopped him and said, "No."
Xu Jingning was stunned.
The great actor Yan is actually still hiding his illness and avoiding medical treatment?
Then, Yan Xun instructed clearly: "There is a medicine box in the master bedroom with antipyretic medicine in it. There is no need to go to the hospital."
As if he was afraid that Xu Jingning would continue to misunderstand, he added: "The hospitals nearby are all public, which is inconvenient. I haven't opened the medicine box for a long time...it shouldn't be expired."
The underlying meaning is that it's not that he's often sick, it's just that his identity is sensitive.
So could you please stop being angry?
Xu Jingning still had a stern face, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
He took out the antipyretic medicine according to the instructions, confirmed that it was to be used before meals, and handed it to Yan Xun along with warm water.
"It's better to eat something in the morning." Xu Jingning knew the feeling of being sick very well. He picked up the bowl of seafood porridge and subconsciously used a coaxing tone, "Do you want me to feed you?"
Looking up at Yan Xun's teasing smile, he immediately became angry and stuffed the porridge into his hand: "Drink it yourself!"
But he still handed it over very carefully.
After breakfast, Yan Xun was forced to "obediently" take a nap and asked Director Fang for a day off, while Xu Jingning stayed at home to take care of him.
After resting for a few hours, the fever subsided, but Yan Xun's condition was still not very good, and he was worried that he might have some other problems.
Xu Jingning called her mother again and asked what to do.
"It's okay. Once the fever goes down, it means she's almost recovered. Follow the recipe I gave you and let your friend eat well. She'll be fully recovered tomorrow." Mom spoke softly, as if she was afraid that he would be worried. She smiled and added, "This is Ningning, you took good care of her. Don't worry too much."
Xu Jingning looked at the person who was sleeping soundly in the room and was not easily persuaded.
Unexpectedly, my mother suddenly smiled and started telling a story: "You were like this when you were a child, do you remember?"
"Mom?" Xu Jingning didn't expect her to bring up the past. "When I was a kid... I never had a good life. When did you say it happened?"
So many years have passed, and now Xu Jingning is alive and well, so his family members are no longer shy about talking about this matter, but Xu Jingning really doesn't remember what his childhood was like.
The pain I felt back then is still deeply engraved in my mind, but I have no recollection of the specific details.
"Oh, you were sick every few days, and your health was not good, so your family was always worried."
"But every time you had a fever, you recovered very quickly, basically within a day or two." As she spoke, the mother actually began to speak with nostalgia, "You had a fever of nearly 40 degrees Celsius once, and your father rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night, crying and worrying that there was something wrong. But the fever went away overnight."
"Although your fever had subsided, you remained in a deep sleep, which scared your family. Your father and I still remember what the doctor on night duty said.
"She said that because the child knows that his family is around and that someone is waiting for him to protect him, he needs to use all the energy in his body to adjust to health, so he has been sleeping all the time. When he wakes up, he will be fine."
Mom's tone was so gentle that Xu Jingning couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Mom, the doctor was just joking and comforting you."
"Just tell me, are you comforted?"
Xu Jingning did feel a lot more at ease. He glanced at the person in the bedroom again and closed the door gently, but not tightly, so that he could come in and out at any time.
Because he knew someone was waiting for him?
I thought Yan Xun would sleep until night, but he woke up before four o'clock. Under Xu Jingning's strong request, Yan Xun took his temperature again and let him out only after confirming that it had returned to normal.
Yan Xun hadn't rested for such a long time in a while. Xu Jingning also took away the air conditioner remote control in the master bedroom just in case. Now he was sweating and sticky. He wanted to take a shower, but was sternly refused.
Xu Jingning frowned and scolded: "Want to do it again?"
Of course Yan Xun said he didn't dare to say anything.
The dinner was not sumptuous, but it was much better than the seafood porridge. It looked extremely nutritious. Yan Xun picked up a piece of pork liver and asked with a smile, "Did you make these?"
"I asked the chef to make it." Xu Jingning scooped him a bowl of egg soup. "Wait for me to cook. You are already in the hospital because of food poisoning."
Yan Xun: “…”
I would also like to thank Comrade Xu for not killing me.
He ate the various dishes that Xu Jingning forced upon him in a proper manner, and was then forced to rest for an hour. After calculating the time, Xu Jingning finally mercifully announced, "You can take a shower now."
"But you can't take a shower for too long. If you feel dizzy, you need to get out in time."
How could Yan Xun dare to say no? He even suspected that if he was a little slow in reacting, Xu Jingning would help him wash.
Of course, it’s not that outrageous. The more likely scenario is that he was tucked into a quilt and forced to sleep all night without turning on the air conditioner.
Yan Xun could tolerate the absence of air conditioning, but he could not tolerate being forced to sleep in the smell of sweat if conditions permitted.
After all, this season is midsummer.
The shower room in the master bedroom doesn't look big from the outside, but when you walk in you'll find out it's a recessed design. There's even a huge bathtub separate from the shower. After looking at the buttons one by one, Xu Jingning roughly understood the functions.
He didn't dare let anyone take a bath, so he could only slowly adjust the temperature of the shower. When he felt it was about right, he was about to go out and call for help, but he turned around and saw Yan Xun had already walked in.
The pajamas he had worn for the whole day had been changed, and now he was wearing the bathrobe that fully exposed his charming figure. Coupled with Yan Xun's natural pair of affectionate eyes, Xu Jingning's hand trembled, and the temperature of the shower suddenly soared to the hottest.
The temperature in the bathroom suddenly rose, and there was even a thin but hazy mist.
Yan Xun was afraid that he would burn himself, so he hurriedly called out: "Ningning? Are you okay?"
Ningning is fine, but she feels unwell.
His ears turned red and he covered his face: "Don't come over here!"
Oh my god, I haven’t heard that fever can be contagious?
