Chapter 45: Weak, Helpless, and Clingy
Qiao Bang and Xie Chen passed by the shooting training ground and saw Qiao Ye practicing shooting alone.
They passed by the equipment training ground and saw Qiao Ye doing strength training alone.
Later, they saw Qiao Ye running alone in the playground, training in mecha, and doing reaction training, but they didn't see Lu Chi.
Later, Qiao Bang asked in surprise, "Did Lu Chi ask for leave?"
Qiao Ye: "Well, he asked for leave."
Qiao Bang asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Qiao Ye was also quite puzzled: "I called Lu Chi, but Lu Chi didn't answer. It was his housekeeper who answered. The housekeeper said Lu Chi was not available."
Qiao Bang said hesitantly, "Ye Zi, you and Lu Chi are partners in the mecha battle. Do you want to go see him? What if he has something to say but is too embarrassed to ask? After all, you just taught him a lesson. I don't think he would dare to ignore you if he hadn't encountered any problems."
Qiao Ye thought for a moment and said, "I think what you said makes sense."
Qiao Ye was sweating profusely. He wiped the sweat off his face with the towel on his shoulders, then dialed Lu Chi's number again using his light brain.
After waiting for a long time, the call was finally connected.
"Hello, Lu Chi."
"It's me, I'm the Lu family's housekeeper Wu, Mr. Ye."
Qiao Ye leaned against the tree, looked down at the mottled shadows on the ground, and asked, "Lu Chi still can't answer the phone?"
"Yes, I'm really sorry, Mr. Ye."
"Is he really ill?"
"Yes, Mr. Ye."
"What's wrong?"
Butler Wu said after a second, "Fever."
Qiao Ye: "Fever? Okay. I'll come to the Lu family to see him later."
Butler Wu: "Mr. Ye, it may not be convenient now."
Qiao Ye: "It's okay, I just have a fever. I'm in good health and I'm not afraid of being infected. It's not inconvenient at all."
After saying that, Qiao Ye hung up the phone.
Butler Wu was still holding the beeping communication and looking at Lu Chi.
A trace of panic flashed across Lu Chi's face.
"She's coming over?"
Butler Wu nodded: "Mr. Ye said he would be here soon. Young Master, are you sure you don't want to tell Mr. Ye that you are having sex?"
Lu Chi's face turned cold: "I have a fever, not a combined fever."
Butler Wu: "We understand."
Lu Chi rubbed his forehead as he walked towards the room.
If she knew he was in love, how would he lie? Would he just make up a random girl and say he liked her? Or...
He couldn't let her find out that he liked her.
So annoying.
Qiao Ye took a taxi to the Lu Family Manor. The Lu Family Manor looked the same as usual, but the atmosphere seemed a little different.
Everyone in the manor seemed a little nervous.
Butler Wu drove a sightseeing car to pick up Qiao Ye at the gate of the manor, and Qiao Ye got in the car.
"Where is Lu Chi?" Qiao Ye asked.
Butler Wu smiled gently and said, "The young master is in his room. He still has a fever."
Qiao Ye: "Then I'll go see him directly."
"Okay, Mr. Ye."
After Qiao Ye entered the villa, she found Lu Chi's room with ease. She knocked on the door, but no one answered, so she turned the doorknob and walked in.
"Lu Chi." Qiao Ye shouted.
"Qiao Qiao, I'm in the bedroom." Lu Chi's voice sounded a little weak.
Qiao Ye walked to the bedroom door and knocked, "Can I come in?"
Lu Chi: "Well, come in."
Qiao Ye pushed open the door to Lu Chi's bedroom. Half of the curtains in Lu Chi's room were blackout curtains, while the other half were translucent curtains, making the bedroom slightly dim.
Qiao Ye walked to Lu Chi's bed and saw that Lu Chi's face was slightly red.
"Are you really feverish?" Qiao Ye leaned forward slightly, placing her hand on his forehead. It was so hot.
Seeing Qiao Ye coming over, Lu Chi's vision began to waver. When her hand touched his forehead, it felt so cool and comfortable. Lu Chi's vision wavered even more.
He was very attached, but the owner of the hand quickly took it away.
A moment of loss in my heart.
Uncomfortable. Combined with the heat susceptibility period, his emotions would be magnified many times. Even though he tried his best to suppress it, Qiao Ye saw a trace of grievance on his face.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Ye sat beside his bed and asked softly with concern.
Lu Chi looked at her eagerly: "Qiao Qiao, I'm hot and uncomfortable."
"Are you so upset?" Qiao Ye had already forgotten to pursue the matter of him not answering the phone.
Maybe the Lu family has strict rules and they don't allow you to answer the phone when you're sick?
"Hmm." Lu Chi couldn't help but add a final syllable to the word "hmm".
Perhaps he noticed it and felt a little embarrassed.
Qiao Ye asked: "Would you like some water? I'll pour you some."
Lu Chi: "Yes."
Lu Chi was very obedient, and he watched Qiao Ye pour the water eagerly. Combined with the sentry during the heat, every smile and gesture of his beloved guide was enough to capture his entire heart.
I really want to hold her hand, I really want to hug her, I really want to kiss her, I really want to smell her pheromones, I really want to mark her!
But Qiao Qiao doesn't like people labeling her.
Lu Chi curled up in the quilt again.
Qiao Ye took a glass of water and Lu Chi came out from under the quilt. Qiao Ye felt that his body was very hot and red.
"Is it really okay with you?"
Lu Chi shook his head and said, "I'm fine." He took the water, tilted his neck back, and drank the whole glass of water.
Qiao Ye looked at Lu Chi, watching the rhythm of the water going down his throat. For some reason, she felt that the way Lu Chi drank water was a bit sexy.
After Lu Chi finished drinking the water, Qiao Ye put his cup aside.
Lu Chi looked at Qiao Ye with watery eyes, "Qiao Qiao..."
"Um?"
"My arms are so sore."
Qiao Ye sighed, sat back down on the bed, and took his arm. "Then let me massage it for you?"
Lu Chi nodded quickly. "Yeah."
Qiao Ye's fingers were thinner, softer, and smaller than his own. Lu Chi lay in bed, watching Qiao Ye intently rubbing his arm, feeling her delicate, soft fingers. The SS-class Sentinel, possessing a high level of fusion, finally felt a tinge of satisfaction and his temper subsided.
"Do you still want to sleep?"
"I don't want to sleep."
"Aren't you sleepy?"
"Not sleepy."
Qiao Ye: "I have seen your situation. Butler Wu can take good care of you. I am ready to go back to school now."
Lu Chi immediately stuck his head out, looking a little cute: "Don't leave, okay?"
Qiao Ye laughed: "You didn't even answer the phone before, now you're afraid I'll leave?"
Criticized by his favorite guide, the sentry retreated into his blanket like a child who had made a mistake. "I'm sorry. Qiao Qiao, can you stay with me?"
Lu Chi usually helped her a lot at school, but now Lu Chi needed care, and he was so weak, helpless, and clingy.
In addition, Lu Chi, who was feverish, looked so well-behaved, just like a little kid, which made Qiao Ye's heart soften. She couldn't bear to refuse him.
Qiao Ye: "Okay."
Lu Chi's eyes lit up in an instant.
