Chapter 92 I'm Here With You

After Jiang Xianli got on the car, she started sneezing.

“A-choo… A-choo…”

She muttered, "It must be that idiot Jiang Xianhui who cursed me behind my back."

Xie Jingcheng handed her a tissue and turned the heater in the car to the highest setting.

"I think you're catching a cold."

Jiang Xianli didn't respond to his words, but instead said, "I didn't look like a shrew just now. Am I different from the me you know?"

She knew that Xie Jingcheng had actually been watching silently at the door.

Xie Jingcheng shook his head, "No, I think you're really cool. From the first time I saw you, I knew you were a cat with sharp claws."

After saying that, he turned and looked at Jiang Xianli with a serious expression.

"You don't need to hide yourself. Whenever you are wronged, you should fight back like this. Even if you poke a hole in the sky, I will fix it for you."

Jiang Xianli blinked, her tone somewhat coquettishly unconsciously.

"What if it collapses?"

"If it collapses, I'll hold it up for you."

"Wow... Young Master is so nice." Jiang Xianli took out a bag from the pile of things she bought, "It's worth it that I bought a gift for my Young Master. I'll give it to you."

Xie Jingcheng opened it and took a look. It was a blue-gray tie.

Although he rarely wears a tie, this was the first time his wife gave him a gift, and he couldn't contain his joy.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome... A-choo... A-choo..."

Jiang Xianli sneezed twice more.

"Let's go, it's getting dark soon, let's go home."

"good."

There was already a lot of snow on the road, so Xie Jingcheng drove very slowly along the way. It was time for dinner when he got home.

Xie Jingcheng first asked Aunt Wang to prepare a bowl of ginger soup for Jiang Xianli.

He personally brought it to her mouth and said, "Drink."

Jiang Xianli took a sip and couldn't help sighing, "Eh... it tastes so bad."

Xie Jingcheng took out a piece of White Rabbit candy from his pocket like magic, "Here."

"All right."

Jiang Xianli picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp, leaving her mouth with a spicy taste.

Xie Jingcheng had already peeled off the candy wrapper and put the candy right into her mouth.

Maybe she really had a cold. Jiang Xianli had no appetite. She ate something simple and went back to her room.

After taking a shower, she went to bed and turned on the TV to watch her favorite Monkey King.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

“Boom boom boom…”

"Come in."

Xie Jingcheng pushed the door open and walked in, holding a bowl of black stuff in one hand and a bag in the other.

"What is this?"

"Medicine."

"oh."

Jiang Xianli is now sneezing, has a runny nose, a swollen head, and a weak body. She definitely has a cold.

So she didn't show any mercy and drank most of the bowl of medicine in one gulp.

Xie Jingcheng should have been relieved, but he felt inexplicably embarrassed.

"Ahem... ahem... well, why don't you say it's bitter?"

Jiang Xianli didn't understand why, "It's quite bitter, what's wrong?"

"According to what they say in TV dramas, if it's bitter you should say 'don't drink it, it's too bitter', why did you swallow it in one gulp?"

Jiang Xianli was even more confused, "If you are sick, you have to take medicine, even if it is bitter, why do you say you don't want to drink it?"

"You said you didn't want to drink, so I tried to comfort you. I brought all the things to comfort you."

"What?"

Xie Jingcheng opened the bag and took out a box of chocolates, a box of plums, a box of hawthorn slices, and finally two stacks of money, estimated to be 20,000 yuan.

“Ahem… Ahem…”

Jiang Xianli handed the empty bowl to Xie Jingcheng, "Pour some water in it, and let's do it again."

"Okay, fine!"

Xie Jingcheng really poured half a bowl of water, "Jiang Xianli, drink the medicine."

Jiang Xianli half-buried her head in the quilt, acting even more weakly.

"Hmm...it's bitter, don't drink it."

Xie Jingcheng rubbed her head, his eyes full of pity.

"Be good, drink a sip, then eat a piece of plum, and it won't be bitter anymore."

puff……

Jiang Xianli really wanted to laugh, but she had to try hard to hold it back.

"Okay, just one sip."

Xie Jingcheng fed her a sip, and she immediately pretended to be coquettish.

"Wuwu... I don't want to drink anymore, it's so bitter..."

Xie Jingcheng quickly stuffed a plum into her mouth, "Be good, have another bite, just one bite."

“Pfft…hahahaha…”

Jiang Xianli couldn't stand it any longer, "Xie Jingcheng, I don't want to play anymore, it's too childish."

The two of them are both in their forties. One is a business tycoon, the other is a college student who is about to graduate. They are still playing house here. It's so funny that it would make people laugh to death if you tell others about it.

Xie Jingcheng rolled his eyes at her and said, "This woman is really unromantic. Then drink this water. You should drink more water if you have a cold."

"No, I'm not thirsty."

Jiang Xianli drinks little water to begin with, and after just drinking a bowl of medicine, she really can't drink it anymore.

"Be good, drink a sip."

Xie Jingcheng brought the bowl to her mouth, and Jiang Xianli had no choice but to take a sip.

"Drink some more."

"I don't want to drink anymore."

"Be obedient and drink up the water, and I'll reward you with 20,000 yuan."

Jiang Xianli frowned, "Master, aren't we acting the same thing again?"

"No, this time it's true. It's the same to coax someone to drink water or to coax someone to drink medicine. Drink it quickly."

"Okay, fine."

For the sake of money, Jiang Xianli picked up the bowl and finished it in two or three gulps.

If she saves a few tens of thousands more, she can buy a courtyard house in Kyoto and sell it for tens of millions in twenty years.

Xie Jingcheng tucked the corner of the quilt for her, "You are so good."

He put the food and money on the bedside table, and without any intention of leaving, he sat down on the sofa.

"If you're tired, go to sleep. I'll be here with you."

Jiang Xianli glanced at her and said, "Are you going to stay here with me for one night?"

"Well, if you get hungry or thirsty at night, I can take care of you. If you get dizzy and fall down when you get up to go to the bathroom, I can help you up."

"A-choo..." Jiang Xianli's nose felt a little sore from the sneezing, and her throat became a little hoarse. "Master, I have a cold, not a terminal illness."

"Pfft, don't talk nonsense. You must live a long life. If you are not sleepy, we can watch TV together. Anyway, my wife is sick, and as a husband, I have to take care of you here."

"Okay, good. Thank you so much, Master."

The two of them watched TV and chatted occasionally. After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xianli really fell asleep.

In order not to disturb her, Xie Jingcheng did not go to bed, but just slept on the sofa with a quilt all night.

The next morning, Jiang Xianli's cold was even worse and her nose was completely blocked.

Just as she was about to get out of bed, Xie Jingcheng said, "I've called the school and asked for three days off for you. With the weekend, you can rest at home for five days."

A cold is not a serious illness. Jiang Xianli originally wanted to insist on going to school, but since Xie Jingcheng had already asked for leave for her, she decided to rest at home.

But she still had to get out of bed and wash up.

But when she came out of the bathroom, Xie Jingcheng had already brought her breakfast.

Red date millet porridge, spring rolls with potato shreds.

"You are sick now, so you can only eat light food. I will treat you to a big meal when you get better in a few days."

"That's good enough."

As soon as Jiang Xianli sat down and prepared to eat, Xie Jingcheng scooped up some porridge with a spoon and put it to her mouth.

"Open your mouth, ah..."
