When Comrade Liu woke up, it was already slightly bright outside! Brother Gu's fever had also subsided.
Not seeing Xiao Lin, the educated youth, he looked up in the direction of the educated youth settlement and saw Xiao Lin carrying a bamboo basket and walking towards him step by step.
The morning sunlight shone on her face, her cheeks flushed, fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her hair was slightly disheveled...
Comrade Xiao Liu's heart suddenly slowed down for a moment. He shook his head to shake off the slight tremor in his heart.
"Xiao Lin, did you go back just now?"
"Yes, I just went back. Gu Nanxun will be waking up soon, so I brought you some breakfast."
As they were talking, the blanket on the bed trembled slightly, and Gu Nanxun slowly opened his eyes.
"Ahem... What are you doing here, Lin, the educated youth?"
As soon as Gu Nanxun opened his eyes, he saw Lin Qing sitting on the stool. He coughed twice in surprise and asked.
Only then did Gu Nanxun realize that his voice was hoarse, and his throat was dry and sore.
“You had a fever last night… Here, have some water first.”
Lin Qing stepped forward, helped Gu Nanxun sit up, poured a cup of spiritual spring water, put the strengthening pill in it, and handed it to Gu Nanxun after it dissolved.
"Gulp... gulp..."
Gu Nanxun's throat was practically parched! This water came just in time! He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the water Lin Qing handed him tasted especially sweet.
"May I have another drink?"
Gu Nanxun handed the water glass to Lin Qing and asked.
"sure."
As she spoke, Lin Qing poured another glass of water for Gu Nanxun.
"I don't know if it's because I'm so thirsty, but I found that the water that Xiaolin, the educated youth, poured was particularly sweet."
Gu Nanxun carefully tasted the water in his hand and said.
"You must be thirsty. How could the water be sweet? There was no sugar added."
Upon hearing Gu Nanxun's words, Xiao Liu quickly chimed in. "Brother Gu has been awake for so long, he's finally getting a chance to speak!"
"Yes, you're just too thirsty to feel that way. If you like it sweet, I'll put some sugar in it next time."
When Lin Qing heard Gu Ge Xun say that, she explained softly.
She wasn't careful enough. She drank the spiritual spring water every day without noticing. She was lucky before because the spiritual spring water lost its spiritual energy after two hours, so it wasn't much different from ordinary water. Otherwise, she probably would have been suspected. Luckily, it was in front of Brother Nanxun. It wouldn't have been good if it were in front of other people.
"Comrade Gu, I've prepared some porridge for you. Please have some."
As she spoke, Lin Qing took out two bowls of lean meat porridge from her basket, handed one to Gu Nanxun and the other to Comrade Xiao Liu, and then took out six steamed buns and handed them to them.
"Thank you, Xiao Lin, the educated youth..."
Gu Nanxun said.
"No need to give me any, my family has definitely prepared something, you two eat it!"
Xiao Liu hurriedly waved his hand, saying that these were all fine grains, and the steamed buns even had meat in them. He had seen it all. There was even meat in the porridge; it was too precious.
"It's okay, you eat. I'm done. I made a lot, and if you don't eat it, it won't keep in this hot weather."
"Comrade Liu, could you help me ask for a day off for your dad? I'd like to go back and get some sleep."
Lin Qing asked.
"No problem, Xiao Lin, leave it to me. I guarantee I'll get it done for you."
“Young Lin, you can call me Liu Guoqing, just call me Liu Guoqing.”
Liu Guoqing scratched his head sheepishly and said.
"Yes, Comrade Liu Guoqing."
"Comrade Gu, after you finish eating, please rest well and take good care of your health."
"Okay, Xiao Lin, go back and rest. Thank you for taking care of me last night."
Gu Nanxun's eyes darkened with worry as he spoke.
He knew Lin Qing had a secret. The water she brought was unusual; after drinking it, he felt noticeably better. He had suspected it yesterday, and today he was even more certain.
He glanced at his legs; he had to pull himself together, or else…
Gu Nanxun looked up at Lin Qing, who had walked away, and made a decision in his heart.
Lin Qing woke up around noon. She quickly went to the kitchen before the educated youth finished work, boiled some water, and pretended to have cooked a meal.
Then, he quickly finished his meal, took a bowl of rice, a plate of braised eggplant, and a plate of braised pork with potatoes from his spatial storage, and then went to Gu Nanxun's house.
"Comrade Gu, dinner's ready..."
Lin Qing placed the food on the kang table and said.
"Young Lin, you've worked hard."
Gu Nanxun said with a smile that he was in good spirits today and had a smile on his face.
Lin Qing was momentarily stunned by Gu Nanxun's smile.
"Little Lin, what do your family members call you?"
Gu Nanxun asked.
They call me Qingqing.
"Can I call you that too?"
Gu Nanxun looked at Lin Qing with an expectant expression and asked.
"Can……"
Lin Qing blushed and said shyly.
"Qingqing, then don't keep calling me Comrade Gu. Just call me Brother Gu or Brother Nanxun."
Gu Nanxun tentatively asked.
"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Nanxun!"
Lin Qing said, her cheeks flushed.
"Okay... Qingqing..."
"Qingqing, don't blame me. You seduced me first. Since you seduced me, you can only be with me." Gu Nanxun's eyes darkened as he silently thought to himself. He wouldn't allow her to be with anyone else. The thought of her marrying someone else in the future made him want to kill.
Gu Nanxun knew that he had fallen for her, completely captivated by Qingqing's gentleness. Perhaps he had fallen for her at first sight; otherwise, given his personality, how could he allow anyone else to get close to him, especially a woman who clearly had a secret?
"Brother Nanxun, hurry up and eat, the food is getting cold. I'm going to go outside and take a look. When I came in, they were building a house outside. It must be for me."
