Su Xiaowan suggested, "How about this, let's find the nearest hotel and stay there first, and talk about it tomorrow."
“Okay, when I went to buy an umbrella, I saw a hotel over there, not far away.”
"Then let's go."
Lin Chen was still driving. Actually, Lin Chen felt it was okay. Although he had a fever, he had driven for so many years in his previous life that driving had become a muscle memory. I wonder if any of you experienced drivers have had this experience: even if you are thinking about other things while driving, you can still drive normally and even overtake other cars.
Of course, we still want to remind all you guys: there are countless reasons, but safety comes first. Reckless driving will bring tears to your loved ones' eyes.
Following the fat man's directions, the group quickly found the hotel, booked four rooms, and then went upstairs together with their room keys.
"good evening."
Lin Chen said goodbye to the three of them, opened his room door, immediately crawled into bed, and drifted off to sleep.
"Knock knock knock!"
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Chen was awakened by a knock on the door. He got up and looked through the peephole, only to find it was Su Xiaowan. He then opened the door.
"Xiao Wan, is something the matter?"
"Lin Chen, I went to buy you some cold medicine. Take the medicine before you go to sleep."
Su Xiaowan handed a box of Quick to Lin Chen.
"Oh, okay, thank you. You should go back and get some rest too."
Okay, good night.
Lin Chen returned to his room, took a cold medicine, and went back to bed to sleep. After a short while, there was another knock on the door. Lin Chen went over and looked through the peephole. This time it was Shen Yue.
"Young Miss, I had just fallen asleep when you woke me up."
"Oh dear, I came to check on you and take your temperature." Shen Yue waved the mercury thermometer in her hand.
"Come in."
Lin Chen walked to the bedside and sat down. Shen Yue first touched his forehead, then shook the mercury thermometer: "Raise your hand and put it under your armpit."
Lin Chen obediently raised his arm, and Shen Yue directly stuffed the thermometer into his collar.
When her cool little hand touched Lin Chen's hot skin, Shen Yue shuddered and her cheeks flushed instantly. She quickly put the thermometer under Lin Chen's armpit and then hurriedly took her hand out.
Five minutes later, Shen Yue took out the thermometer and glanced at it.
"38.5 degrees Celsius, the temperature is still quite high. We'll check on it tonight, and if it continues to rise, we'll have to go to the hospital."
"It should be nothing serious, just a minor cold. The fever will definitely break by tomorrow. You should go back to sleep, Miss."
"No, you caught a cold because you took off your clothes and gave them to me. I'm staying tonight to take care of you."
"No need."
"Oh, you go to sleep, don't worry about me. You need to sleep more if you have a cold."
Lin Chen was so sleepy that he couldn't persuade her, so he let her be.
"Okay, I'm going to sleep now. If you get sleepy later, you can go back to sleep by yourself."
"Okay, you should go to sleep."
Lin Chen crawled into bed and fell asleep immediately.
As night deepened, drowsiness crept in Shen Yue. Sitting on the edge of the bed, her eyelids drooped. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly felt Lin Chen begin to tremble all over, muttering, "So cold, so cold."
Shen Yue became anxious, looked around, and took Lin Chen's down jacket, covering him with it, but Lin Chen was still shivering all over.
"What to do, what to do..." Shen Yue gritted her teeth, took off her coat, crawled into Lin Chen's bed, and hugged him tightly.
Gradually, Lin Chen felt warmth in Shen Yue's embrace, and he hugged her back, tighter and tighter, and his body stopped trembling.
The next morning, Lin Chen felt something soft in his arms. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Shen Yue.
Lin Chen chuckled to himself, thinking, "He said he would take care of me yesterday, but he was so sleepy in the middle of the night that he just fell asleep and even crawled into my bed."
Lin Chen gently flicked Shen Yue's nose and said softly, "Miss, wake up."
Shen Yue shifted her body and murmured, "Let me sleep a little longer."
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt something was wrong, and she opened her eyes abruptly, meeting Lin Chen's gaze.
For some reason, the temperature in the air began to rise gradually, Shen Yue's cheeks became hot, and Lin Chen also felt his mouth was dry.
At the critical moment, Lin Chen regained his senses.
"Ahem, Miss, it's time to get up."
"Oh, right, let me take your temperature again."
"36.8, thankfully, the fever has subsided."
"I told you not to worry."
"Hmph, it's good that they care about you."
After getting up, Lin Chen and Shen Yue went together to wake up Fatty and Su Xiaowan.
"Brother Chen, are you alright?"
"It's alright, the fever has gone down. Let's go back to school."
After dropping off the students back at school, Lin Chen returned to 1901 to take a shower. He had sweated a lot the night before, probably because of a fever, and hadn't brought any spare clothes, so he couldn't shower at the hotel.
Today was a holiday, but Anrou hadn't slept in yet. She was woken up by the urge to pee, so she quickly got up, opened the bathroom door without even putting on her slippers, and rushed in.
Sitting on the toilet, with the sound of running water, An Rou showed a relaxed expression.
"Huh? Didn't I just finish peeing? Why is there still the sound of water?"
An Rou finally opened her eyes and looked around. The familiar scene appeared before her eyes once again.
"Boss! Why don't you lock the door every time you take a shower?!"
Lin Chen ignored her and continued taking his shower.
"Oh, senior, I'm such an innocent young man and you didn't say anything when you saw me, why are you getting so worked up?"
"Pah, you dog of a boss, you call yourself innocent? Can innocence be that great?"
"Huh? What?"
"Ahem, it's nothing, I'm going back to sleep."
An Rou blushed and quickly ran out.
Lin Chen glanced down and saw his little brother standing proudly, as if he knew what An Rou was talking about.
After taking a shower, Lin Chen took out his laptop and continued coding in the living room.
"Beep beep beep."
Lin Chen received an email. Upon opening it, he found it contained design drawings for a milk tea shop sent by someone from Wang Fugui's company, along with a message asking what the shop's signboard should be called.
Lin Chen thought for a moment and decided to call it Heytea, as it would be easier to remember. He then looked at several design drafts, picked the one he was most satisfied with, and sent it back to the other party.
At noon, An Rou finally got up, rubbed her hair, and walked into the living room, where she found that Lin Chen had already prepared the meal.
"Wow, boss, you're so virtuous!"
"Hehe, get out of here, there's no room for you."
"Hehe, then you should eat less."
An Rou didn't believe Lin Chen would leave her without a share, so she obediently went to get some rice.
While eating, Lin Chen said, "Senior, come out with me this afternoon."
"what?"
"I'll treat you to milk tea."
