It was already midnight when Fu Hongxing got home.
Ning Jing had something on her mind. She was originally sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) waiting, but later she became drowsy and slumped onto the table on the kang.
He first went to the kitchen, scooped up some hot water, and cleaned himself thoroughly.
Then he pushed open the door and entered the room, where he saw Ning Jing resting her head on her pillow, her brows slightly furrowed, and a look of worry and unease on her face.
Fu Hongxing's face, which had been cold and stern, gradually softened.
He has no regrets about what he did today.
After taking a deep breath, Fu Hongxing reached out and gently tucked a stray strand of hair that had fallen across Ning Jing's cheek behind her ear.
Ning Jing seemed to sense Fu Hongxing's presence; her furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and her unease dissipated considerably.
Upon seeing this, Fu Hongxing paused, just as he was about to withdraw his finger.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his head, causing him to grab his hair and collapse to his knees with a thud.
As Fu Hongxing's fingertips left, Ning Jing, who had initially felt relieved, trembled slightly and then suddenly opened her eyes.
"Red Star? What's wrong?"
Seeing Fu Hongxing kneeling on one knee, holding his head in his hands, his forehead covered in sweat, Ning Jing exclaimed in surprise.
He stepped forward and grabbed Fu Hongxing's body, his voice trembling with fear.
The pain came and went quickly, like a gust of wind.
When Ning Jing jumped up from the kang (a heated brick bed) and helped him up, Fu Hongxing felt the pain subside.
However, the aftereffects of that pain are still quite obvious.
Fu Hongxing forced his head up, smiled at Ning Jing, and comforted her, "It's nothing, I just accidentally fell. I walked too much today, and my legs are a little weak."
Ning Jing didn't believe a word he said.
Tears streamed down her face: "You're lying. You rode a bicycle today. Tell me, are you feeling unwell? Fu Hongxing, if you're feeling unwell, you must tell me. Don't lie to me, or I'll never forgive you for the rest of my life."
Hearing Ning Jing say that, Fu Hongxing, who had been standing upright, simply slumped down and sat on the ground, chuckling softly, "I knew I couldn't lie to you. It only hurt for a little while, but it doesn't hurt anymore."
When Ning Jing heard what he said, the tears that were already flowing flowed even more fiercely!
However, she also knew that now was not the time to cry.
They helped Fu Hongxing up and moved him onto the kang (a heated brick bed).
Then he quickly went out and filled a basin with hot water to wipe Fu Hongxing's sweat.
After wiping her down, seeing that Fu Hongxing didn't seem to be in pain, he finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.
I don’t know if it was because I was too tired today, or if the headache I had earlier caused my whole body to resist and become exhausted.
Ning Jing poured out the water from the basin and came back in; he was already sound asleep.
Looking at Fu Hongxing's face, Ning Jing's heart clenched with pain.
What exactly happened today?
What could cause Fu Hongxing's head, which had been perfectly healthy for so long, to start hurting?
"Fuqiang, tell me, did the other party actually cure Fu Hongxing's illness?"
So many days have passed, and Chris still hasn't replied. Ning Jing is starting to despair.
If possible, she would be willing to exchange all the gold coins in this system for medicine that could cure Fu Hongxing's illness.
The thought of tranquility had barely formed when she felt a buzzing in her head.
