"Say...say what..." Lin Yang tried to pull her hand back, but she couldn't muster any strength. "You misheard me."
Xu Chengzhi covered Lin Yang's burning hand with his other hand, staring intently into Lin Yang's eyes as she tried to look away, "Yangyang, I like you too."
He has a cold constitution, and his hands and feet are always cold all year round. Now, holding Lin Yang's small hand, the continuous coolness against her hand dissipated a lot of his heat.
Despite her fever, she craved the coolness of his touch and didn't push him away.
She squinted comfortably, then tugged at the little finger of his large hand with her other small hand, and pouted, "My head is so hot..."
"Is this what you call being affectionate, Yangyang?" Xu Chengzhi looked at Lin Yang, who was so dazed and unconscious, and his mouth suddenly felt dry, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down involuntarily.
"No, I want to drink water." Lin Yang's lips were so dry they were almost peeling.
"Then let go of me, and I'll go pour you some, okay?" Xu Chengzhi coaxed her.
Lin Yang nodded weakly, and the next second she obediently let go of Xu Chengzhi.
He had just gotten up to get Lin Yang some water when there was a knock at the door.
"Brother Xu, I've found you a doctor." It was Xiao Zheng's voice.
"Creakâ" Xu Chengzhi turned to the door and opened it from the inside.
The first thing that caught my eye was Xiao Zheng, who was still catching his breath. He had rushed to find a doctor as soon as he received Xu Chengzhi's call.
Unfortunately, this place is quite remote and sparsely populated, making it difficult to find a doctor.
Beyond Xiao Zheng's tall frame was a middle-aged doctor in a white coat carrying a medical kit.
"Doctor, thank you for your help." Xu Chengzhi stepped aside to let them in, then closed the door.
"Ugh!" Lin Yang, who had regained some consciousness, was hit by altitude sickness again and covered her mouth as if she was about to vomit.
Xu Chengzhi reacted quickly, taking two long strides to reach the bedside and pulling out the trash can from under the bed.
"Ugh!" Lin Yang bent over and vomited into the trash can.
She had already vomited everything up; now all that was left was a bunch of sour water.
"Auntie, stop throwing up! Waaah, people would think you're having morning sickness." Xiao Zheng teased her to distract her from her discomfort.
The doctor took out the medical kit and took out the necessary IV drip bottles and syringes one by one.
He took out a strip of anti-nausea medicine from the first-aid kit, took out two pills, and took the warm water that Xu Chengzhi handed him, gesturing for Lin Yang, who had wiped her mouth, to swallow them.
With water in hand, the two pills were swallowed smoothly.
Lin Yang leaned weakly against the pillow, too lazy to even lift her eyelids. The harsh words she uttered lacked any real force, "Xiao Zheng, you just wait. When I'm better, I'll see if I don't beat you up!"
"Then you'd better get better soon, Auntie, and it would be best if you could get up right now and beat me up, hahaha!" Xiao Zheng glanced at the doctor who was applying alcohol to disinfect Lin Yang's hand, and grinned slyly, begging for a beating.
"Nephew, are you getting cocky or am I too weak to lift a knife?" Lin Yang was arguing with Xiao Zheng a second ago, but the next second he couldn't help but grunt, "Ugh."
Tiny needles were inserted into the veins on the back of her hand, and several white tapes were applied to prevent her from moving around.
Watching the slowly dripping salt water, Lin Yang realized that Xiao Zheng's sarcastic remarks were all meant to distract her.
After all, she has always been most afraid of injections.
Xu Chengzhi patted Xiao Zheng on the shoulder. "Thank you."
"Oh, there's no need to thank me. She's my aunt after all." Xiao Zheng scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
