Chapter 15 Song Li has a fever
In the coldest month of the year, winter in Yuancheng seemed to come especially early and last especially long. The wind and frost were blowing like sharp blades, and the world was unbearably cold tonight.
He Qian was on a business trip in City M for a week. It was just a small project, but he took so long to finish it.
When I returned to Ciyun Pavilion, as soon as I entered the entrance, I found that Song Li's high heels were taken off and spread all over the place, and her handbag was actually thrown on the floor?
Logically speaking, Song Li is a very honest and cautious person. If she had drunk alcohol, she would not drive by herself. Just now in the garage, it was confirmed that it was Song Li's usual parking habit. Yang Xiao had already confirmed that she had no social engagements tonight and would come back after work.
He Qian quickened his pace and walked towards the bedroom. As soon as he opened the door, he felt the hot heater coming towards him. How afraid of the cold was she?
Song Li lay flat in the quilt with only his head exposed.
He Qian turned on the light, stood by the bed and called her twice, but there was no response. He looked at the bedside table and saw several bottles of medicine!
"Song Li!" He Qian panicked! He lifted the quilt and carefully pulled her up. She was limp and unusually hot, especially her cheek against his neck, which was like a small stove. Her hair was still a little damp, probably because she hadn't dried it completely after washing it.
Song Li was shaken so much that her consciousness began to become a little blurry. She frowned and tried to push away the person who woke her up, but she had no strength to do so.
"Song Li..." He Qian patted her face gently, then touched her forehead. It was so hot, she had a fever!
Song Li was drowsy. She just wanted to sleep and no one wanted to touch her.
He Qian laid her back on the bed and called Yang Xiao: "Ask Doctor Zhang to come over. Song Li has a fever."
Yang Xiao and Zhang Jinnan did not dare to hesitate for a moment, and arrived at Ciyun Pavilion in less than half an hour.
Yang Xiao had no reason to follow, so he waited in the living room. Zhang Jinnan followed He Qian into the master bedroom, put down the medicine box, took out the receiver and hung it around his neck, then pointed the thermometer gun at Song Li's forehead with quick movements.
He Qian stood beside with an unhappy look on his face, his eyes never leaving Song Li's pale face.
Zhang Jinnan took the temperature several times, checked her pupils, and reached out to lift the quilt. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he paused. He turned back to look at He Qian, "Mr. He, I want to listen to Miss Song's heart and lungs."
He Qian was very cooperative and quick, quickly pulling off Song Li's quilt.
Zhang Jinnan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was wearing clothes, and hurriedly moved the stethoscope over to her.
After only two or three minutes of examination, He Qian became impatient, "What's going on? If it's serious, tell me quickly so we can send him to the hospital!"
Zhang Jinnan is in his fifties and can be considered an experienced doctor. He has always been He Qian's regular personal doctor. Although he has treated Song Li several times and was terrified of He Qian's impatient seven consecutive questions, he has some experience, but he still feels a chill down his spine every time.
"It must be the cold that caused the fever..."
"Should?" He Qian couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"Yes, yes, I caught a cold and had a fever!" Zhang Jinnan's heart was beating fast and he put away his weapon.
He Qian picked up a few bottles of medicine from the bedside table and handed them to him, "I don't know how much she took, come and take a look!"
Because there were quite a lot of medicine bottles, He Qian used both hands to "present" them. This action scared Zhang Jinnan so much that he almost knelt down!
"This is cold medicine and fever-reducing medicine. It seems that Miss Song also understands her condition."
"Why can't you wake her up even though she has a cold and fever? Is she asleep or unconscious?"
Song Li had been woken up by this time, but was still dizzy. He squinted his eyes and saw two figures swaying in front of him, then closed them again.
"Miss Song has caught a cold and has a fever. The symptoms came on quickly and she is weak, so her condition looks very serious. I will give her an IV now to lower her temperature first." Zhang Jinnan dove into the medicine box again and began to prepare the medicine.
He Qian could only believe him and stood aside without saying anything, watching him make one move after another until he had hung the potion for Song Li.
"Mr. He, the potion will take about an hour and a half to finish. Should I...stay here, or come back at the appointed time?"
"Go away." He Qian sat on the bed and looked up at the transparent medicine in the drip.
"Okay, Mr. He." Zhang Jinnan packed his things.
After Yang Xiao and Zhang Jinnan left, the whole room returned to silence. Song Li lay there motionless, his brows furrowed, as if he was uncomfortable and impatient.
He Qian stood up to get the hair dryer, carefully took out her hair, and began to blow dry her hair...
Song Li was still awakened by his actions and suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him.
He Qian was stunned for a few seconds by her staring at her big eyes, which seemed to be crying but not crying. Just when he was about to say something, she blinked blankly again. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't wake up.
Song Li thought she might be out of her mind. Why would He Qian blow dry her hair?
But the warm breeze whistling in my ears, every movement of my fingertips gently lifting my hair, all seemed so real...
He Qian blew on the left side and then switched to the right side.
Song Li felt completely in a trance, a dream then reality. When He Qian was tidying up her hair, she suddenly grabbed his hand...
He Qian met her eyes. She seemed much more awake. He turned off the hairdryer and said, "Don't think too much. I just don't want you to die so early."
Is it really him... Song Li couldn't see the face in front of him clearly, so he could only hold the big hand tighter and tighter.
He Qian did not pull his hand back. The needle was still inserted into the back of her left hand.
Song Li muttered, "Du Zhanrong only needs a week to recuperate from his injury, and you left me by his side for a week. What if he never recovers? Do I have to stay by his side for the rest of my life..."
After hearing this, He Qian was stunned. This sentence was like an electric current that entered his ears and spread throughout his body!
"Is it..." Tears flowed from the corners of Song Li's eyes, and she stared blankly at the shadow in front of her, which seemed to be He Qian.
He Qian's face began to burn. Could he have caught Song Li's fever? But why was his heart beating so violently? Was it guilt or fear?
She didn't ask any more questions, and he didn't dare to move. The two of them remained in a stalemate for a long time...
Finally, Song Li fell into a deep sleep again, and in a daze, he let go of He Qian's hand.
He Qian's arms were a little numb from stretching, but he still gently pried her hands apart and covered her with the quilt.
After getting up, he stopped again, lowered his eyes and looked at the person on the bed again...
Song Li, the woman whom he had always hated but could never bring himself to do anything to her!
He remembered the first time he saw her. It was at the freshman welcome ceremony of Yuancheng University. She gave a speech as an outstanding student representative. As an important sponsor of various projects of the school and an outstanding alumnus, He Qian awarded Song Li a commemorative medal.
At that time, Song Li was young and lively, with a sweet smile, and was sunny and enthusiastic. He Qian remembered her very clearly.
After the conference, Song Li found him privately and said that she entered Yuan University just for him and wanted to follow in his footsteps because she had liked him for a long time...
He Qian smiled and didn't care much.
For several months afterwards, Song Li often appeared in front of He Qian without any reason...
Song Li also studied pharmaceutical research. His mother, Tao Fuhua, was a genius in pharmaceutical research and had a great reputation in the industry, but she was particularly impressed by Song Li, and he often heard his mother praising her intelligence...
Then, a fire broke out in his mother's laboratory, and Qin Xiang, with whom he was discussing the wedding date, was inside.
At that time, He Qian received Qin Xiang's call for help. He was on a business trip in Lin City. After the meeting, he only heard her message. When he rushed back, the laboratory was beyond saving!
Qin Xiang cried on the phone and asked He Qian to save her. He could never forget that heart-wrenching cry!
"He Qian, please come quickly, please come and save us. Aunt Hua is bleeding a lot. There's a huge fire here. He Qian, I don't want anything to happen to our child. Please come quickly... It's Song Li. Song Li came to find Aunt Hua. They were arguing, and then the lab caught fire. When I found Aunt Hua, she was lying on the ground bleeding a lot..."
The crackling sound in the background is particularly obvious, and the sound of the fire burning is very loud. You can imagine how fierce the fire was at that time and how desperate they were!
The fire kept burning and Qin Xiang kept crying!
And Song Li was the arsonist and the murderer! Even though the police later confirmed that Song Li had sufficient alibi, He Qian still believed Qin Xiang's words!
So He Qian had no choice but to use his own methods to force Song Li to confess, threatening her with her father's life...
But she never expected that her father, Song Qian, would be so unwilling to see his daughter suffer that he would choose to jump from the ninth floor...
He Qian stared at Song Li who was sleeping on the bed, feeling mixed emotions. After twelve years of entanglement between them, were they destined to continue to get along like this in the future?
