Soon, the doctor came over and checked Shi Qi's temperature, which was 39 degrees.
Shi Qi woke up with a dazed look on her face, her cheeks flushed, her eyes watery, her lips unusually bright, and she lay in the quilt with droopy eyelids.
She fell asleep again, still holding the corner of Jiu Ye's clothes tightly in her hand.
Sitting beside the bed, Yejiu's eyes darkened as he lowered his head to stare at her unusually rosy face. There was obvious worry in his eyes, and his voice was cold, "Why did she suddenly have a fever?"
The doctor replied, "The temperature on the island has dropped significantly at night these past two days. I'm afraid that's why she caught a cold and developed a fever."
Yejiu was upset and thought he shouldn't have made her wait for him last night.
The doctor prescribed some fever-reducing medicine and left.
It was daybreak. Outside the window was a lush forest. The cool, green sunlight, like jade, flickered faintly through the gaps between the trees, and fell warmly into the house.
After staying with her all night and taking medicine, Shi Qi's fever finally subsided, but she was still weak and her face was pale.
Yejiu, wearing a black shirt, sat on the edge of the bed, one hand resting on the headboard, his sleeves pulled up a little, revealing his cold white wrist bones, and his beautiful lines revealed his sexiness.
He looked down at the delicate girl in his arms, who had just woken up and was clinging to his arm in a delicate and clingy manner.
The black and white deer eyes were full of innocence and bloodshot, and the long hair fell softly from his arms, making him look weak and helpless.
Yejiu stretched his neck and shoulders forward, caressing her face with an extremely doting expression on his face. He tucked her hair behind her ears and spoke in a low, gentle voice, like the most beautiful sound in the world. "Be good, sleep a little longer. Master Jiu will make your favorite porridge for you in a while."
When Shi Qi heard that he was about to leave, she immediately reached out to hug his neck, exhaling warm breath from her nose, and her voice was especially soft and delicate, "Don't go, don't go~~"
For some reason, Shi Qi, who was sick, was unusually delicate and clingy.
Yejiu's pupils were deeply constricted, and the girl who relied on him so wholeheartedly almost touched the softest part of his heart.
He bent down and kissed her forehead, "Dear, your fever has just subsided, you need to rest well."
Shi Qi nestled in his arms, her delicate appearance made her eyes watery, and her voice was soft and gentle, "I want to see you do it."
Unable to resist her insistence, Yejiu had to take her to the kitchen.
The golden morning light shone in from above the window, falling on his facial features, each of which was exquisite.
Jiu Ye's hands, as white as jade, were washing rice while he was keeping an eye on the girl behind him.
She was like a pendant, hugging his waist from behind with her hands, her little face pressed against his back, not saying a word, and being very quiet.
Her long eyelashes drooped quietly like butterfly wings, and I don’t know what she was thinking.
Her soft cherry-colored lips were lightly pursed, and her whole body exuded a clean, pure and sweet aura. At this moment, her delicate and sickly appearance seemed unusually clingy.
Wherever Jiu Ye goes, she follows.
Either she was pinching the corner of his clothes or hugging his waist.
From beginning to end, it was very quiet.
Such an abnormality made her keep her lips tightly pursed and remain silent no matter how Yejiu spoke to her.
Behind his back, Shi Qi's eyes became increasingly cold and gloomy.
All the memories from when she was five years old were recalled one by one.
A memory that she hated deeply.
The fear that she and her mother were being hunted became a nightmare that haunted her for many years.
Shi Qi's hold on Jiu Ye's hand tightened slightly, a cold gleam flashed in his eyes, and he spoke softly, "Jiu Ye, I want to become stronger."
