Chapter 36 You Pressed My Hair
The next day.
Xu Ruochu's head was groggy. She couldn't remember what time she fell asleep after returning to her apartment last night, but she seemed to remember that before going to bed, she looked at the notebook that she had said she would throw away but had been reluctant to throw away, and then she slowly fell asleep...
She opened her eyes drowsily, but her eyelids were too heavy to lift.
This feeling made her very painful. She wanted to lift the quilt, get up, wash her face, and wake herself up.
"Hmm..."
As soon as she stood up, her head felt like it was being pricked by needles.
She fell back on the pillow, closed her eyes and gasped. It took her a while to recover.
"hiss......"
The pain in her head made her gasp.
She frowned and reached out to touch her forehead. The scorching temperature made her realize that her fever seemed to have worsened.
"Oh, it seems I can't go to school..."
She bit her lip and closed her eyes again to rest.
Then he fumbled for the cell phone under the pillow, ready to call his counselor to ask for leave.
Because she had a severe headache, she opened the address book and dialed without looking carefully.
"Hello, Teacher Da V, I have a high fever and would like to ask for half a day's sick leave from you." She said while covering her hot head with her hands.
"Why would you get sick when you're fine?"
Suddenly, a familiar low and magnetic voice was heard. Xu Ruochu was startled, his eyes suddenly widened, and he raised the phone to his eyes and looked at it.
The three words "cousin" suddenly caught my eye.
This name was changed after she was reborn. It had the same beginning as her counselor's English name, which caused her to accidentally dial the number.
Xu Ruochu's heart was beating fast, her cheeks flushed, and she didn't dare to say anything more. She quickly added, "I'm sorry, cousin. I called the wrong number."
She hung up the phone and tucked it back under her pillow.
In the ward, Gu Yixiao looked at the hung-up call record with a frown.
He called the other party's number back, but the other end still didn't answer the call.
After taking back his phone, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Lin Yuan was sitting on the hospital bed and saw that Gu Yixiao's face suddenly turned ugly.
She lifted the quilt, walked forward, and asked gently: "Axiao, what's wrong? It sounds like your sister Ruchu, what happened?"
"She's sick."
"What? Is it serious?" Lin Yuan asked worriedly.
"Okay. You should take good care of yourself. I'll go back first." Gu Yixiao responded.
"But Xiao, you just arrived. Don't you want to rest for a while? Why are you leaving so soon?"
"I have things to take care of. I'll see you another day."
"Okay, then be careful on the road..."
A trace of loneliness passed through Lin Yuan's heart, but his face still maintained an elegant and noble expression.
"I'll take you there."
She turned around and followed Gu Yixiao out the door in her hospital gown.
"No, you should rest."
After Gu Yixiao finished speaking, he didn't even look at her, but turned around and strode towards the door.
Lin Yuan stomped his feet in anger, but there was no way he could persuade him not to go back, so he had to lie back on the hospital bed, picked up his phone, and continued to call the mysterious man.
"Now hurry up and follow Young Master Gu to see where he goes. I want to know if he is with his sister?" Lin Yuan briefly explained the situation and told the other party to be discreet in his actions.
The mysterious man said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Lin Yuan hung up the phone, a cold light flashing in his eyes...
Xu Ruochu lay on the bed, thinking about all sorts of things, and fell asleep again unknowingly.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
There was a sudden knock on the door, startling her.
After waking up with a start, she rubbed her temples, got up in a daze, walked over and opened the door, only to see Gu Yixiao standing outside, looking at her seriously.
"What, what's wrong? Cousin."
Her face was pale and she blinked in confusion.
Gu Yixiao frowned: "Why don't you go to the hospital if you are sick?"
"Well, I've been taking my medicine at home, so soon..." she replied.
Before she could finish her words, Gu Yixiao suddenly stepped forward, picked her up, and closed the door.
“…”
Xu Ruochu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously grabbed his collar, his voice trembling slightly, "You, what are you doing?"
Gu Yixiao lowered his eyes and looked at the frightened face of the girl in his arms, and his heart suddenly sank.
She hooked her arms around his neck and pressed their bodies together. His chest was broad, with a faint minty scent, which made Xu Ruochu's heart beat faster and her breathing became a little rapid.
Her ears turned pink uncontrollably and she was extremely embarrassed.
"Big cousin..."
She called out cautiously.
Gu Yixiao held her hand, tightened it slightly, and opened his thin lips slightly, "Didn't I tell you to answer my call no matter when and where you are? Why didn't you answer the phone just now?"
"..." Xu Ruochu looked guilty. "I...maybe I fell asleep."
"sleep?"
Gu Yixiao narrowed his eyes slightly, "This is the second time. If you dare not answer my call for the third time, I will make sure you are in trouble."
He said it domineeringly, but his hands gently placed her on the bed.
Because he didn't pay attention to the long black hair under his arm, he accidentally pressed it.
A cry of pain was heard.
"hiss......"
"What's wrong?" Gu Yixiao immediately asked worriedly.
"It hurts...you pressed on my hair." Her voice came muffled from her throat, obviously in great pain.
Gu Yixiao immediately let go, looking at her eyes filled with tears due to pain, feeling a little annoyed, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Xu Ruochu shook his head, "It's okay, I'm fine."
"You rest first, the family doctor will be here soon." His face softened slightly.
"No, I'll be fine in half a day after taking the medicine. You can go back first."
"No, you must seek treatment if you are sick, otherwise it will leave hidden dangers. Listen to me." Gu Yixiao said firmly, leaving no room for negotiation.
Xu Ruochu couldn't persuade him, but she also didn't want to have too much contact with him, so she held her breath and turned over to face the wall, "Oh, then whatever you want."
Gu Yixiao looked at her stubborn profile, a doubt rising in his heart. He turned and walked to the other side of the bed, "Xu Ruchu, are you feeling unwell, or are you angry?"
"How could I..." She was stubborn and refused to admit defeat.
Gu Yixiao approached, staring at her with a sharp gaze, "I can even sense your emotions, and you still dare to say no?"
Hearing this, Xu Ruochu's cheeks turned red.
Is his observation ability so terrifying?
I was trying to control my facial expressions, but I couldn't hide it from him.
"I'm not angry!" she retorted quickly.
"I'm just too sleepy. I haven't had a high fever in all these years. Today is the first time in nearly seven years. I can't handle it."
"OK, don't show any emotion towards me, or I'll make you suffer."
“…”
Xu Ruochu was once again startled by his strong and overbearing words.
