Chapter 10
Lin Ran was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night. Her body felt like it was on fire, and all her bones were aching.
She touched her forehead and it was burning hot, probably because she had a fever.
The effect of the medicine she took had worn off, so she woke up in pain.
Lin Ran moved her frozen and numb limbs, got up, and went to knock on the door.
No one answered the door.
She struggled to walk to the storage shelf, picked up the sculpture on the shelf, smashed it down, and then fainted on the ground.
While she was dazed, someone came into the basement and patted her face.
The familiar fragrance of pine and cypress enveloped her.
Don’t take pictures, it hurts.
She felt like her face was going to rot, with new wounds adding to the old ones, and there was no way she would recover.
Consciousness completely sank into darkness.

"He has a fever and is fainting from hunger. I'll give him a shot of cefuroxime first, and then some glucose. He won't die for now...but I can't say for sure what will happen in the future."
Inside the bedroom, the temperature dropped sharply.
Shen Jinghan's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it. He said coldly: "Explain clearly."
Yanci sighed deeply, pointed to his watch, and said, "Mr. Shen, don't you see what time it is?"
Four o'clock in the morning! He thought the prince had been assassinated and seriously injured, otherwise why would he call him several times in a row!
He has an outpatient clinic tomorrow morning and an extra surgery scheduled in the afternoon.
As a result, he was called at four in the morning. What could he do?
Yanci explained helplessly: "She is too weak. It's best to take her to the hospital for a comprehensive examination. Isn't it that you Chenyuan doesn't give people food?"
He looked at the butler in shock: "Who is this?"
Shen Jinghan’s woman?
I have never heard that he has a woman. I have known him for so many years, and this young man always looks up to the sky. He is not only narcissistic but also has severe mysophobia. I even suspect that he is asexual and doesn't love anyone.
So there's a beautiful yet weak woman hiding in the bed at home?
If this gets out to Hong Kong's wealthy circles, it will cause an earthquake!
The housekeeper quickly explained: "This is the Fifth Miss, the eldest young master's stepsister. You have been abroad for many years, so you don't know her."
Yanci's jaw dropped in shock. That little adopted daughter in the rumors? Isn't she Shen Zhuoyu's woman?
When the Chenyuan incident broke out, he was still studying for a medical doctorate in the United States. When he came back, he was only hearing second-hand news.
How come things turned out that his brother's woman was in his bed?
This complicated triangle relationship! His gossipy heart was ignited.
Shen Jinghan said impatiently: “Hurry up and see the doctor, then get out.”
words:"......"
He said this, with Shen Jinghan's poisonous mouth and bad temper, no matter how handsome or rich he is, he will never find a partner!
Yanci gave Lin Ran an IV drip and told him to watch over it, then find a guest room to sleep for two hours, and go back to change clothes and go to the outpatient clinic when it was daybreak.
Lin Ran was in a daze and felt someone feeding her water. She wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids felt as heavy as two small mountains.
It was like returning to her childhood. Every time she was sick, her grandma would feed her water at night and pat her back to coax her to sleep.
"Grandma." She murmured, her tears wetting the pillow.
The other person patted her back gently.
When Lin Ran woke up, it was already noon the next day.
The curtains in the bedroom were closed, the light was dim, and a man's low voice could be faintly heard from outside.
She looked at the familiar bedroom and her expression suddenly changed.
Shen Jinghan's bedroom?
She had a fever and was unconscious last night. Was it Shen Jinghan who carried her out of the basement?
Lin Ran looked at the men's shirt on her body, and her face turned even paler.
How is it possible! Hasn't he always hated her and her mother?
The voices outside gradually faded away.
Lin Ran struggled to get up, and a dizzy feeling came over her.
The door was opened from the outside.
Lin Ran trembled slightly, forced herself to sit up, and looked at him.
Shen Jinghan stood at the door, his face handsome and indifferent. His tall and majestic figure blocked all the sunlight. The bedroom suddenly became darker, and there was a hint of danger in the air.
"Awake?" an emotionless voice.
Lin Ran's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pale and dry lips smiled sarcastically. It was still that familiar smell, cold and ruthless like winter frost. How could she think that this man still had a trace of conscience.
He just wasn't tired of her body yet, and wanted to humiliate her one more time before ruthlessly throwing her away.
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
Chen Jinghan narrowed his eyes slightly, walked into the room, reached out and touched her forehead, and when he saw her hiding behind him, he sneered and with a gloomy face, he hugged her in his arms.
Lin Ran struggled violently, but the little strength she had while she was sick was like a kitten scratching an itch to the strong man.
She glared at him.
Shen Jinghan saw a thin layer of sweat on her face. Her collar loosened during her struggle, revealing the charming scenery of her chest. Her almond-shaped eyes were dark and bright. Suddenly, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his voice became hoarse: "What's the hurry?"
He hooked the sweat-soaked hair at her temples, pinched her face, and said in a low voice, "You're still sick, and you're so anxious to seduce me?"
Lin Ran was so angry that she felt dizzy. She leaned weakly on his chest, gasping for breath violently.
Shen Jinghan put his hand to her forehead and said coldly, "The fever is almost gone."
Only by sweating can the fever go away.
Lin Ran was surprised to find that her body felt much more relaxed and not as drowsy as before.
She lowered her eyes to look at the back of her hand. Did he call a doctor last night? Wouldn't that alarm Shen Zhongqi and her mother?
Her face turned pale and she said hoarsely, "Let me go. I have to go back."
Shen Jinghan sneered, "Go back to the basement and continue being locked up? What kind of masochistic physique do you have? You go to be locked up when Shen Zhongqi asks you to? Is he the one who supports you?"
All of Chenyuan's expenses were in his name, and he was the one who supported her all these years. What a heartless little ungrateful bastard!
"I'm happy to." Her shoulders trembled with anger. It was better than being treated humiliated by him here in dishevel. Between corporal punishment and mental humiliation, she chose the former.
At least Shen Zhongqi couldn't hurt her in the slightest.
Chen Jinghan narrowed his deep phoenix eyes, lowered his gaze to look at her snow-white and dazzling skin, and bit her collarbone hard.
The man's hot thin lips made her shudder slightly, and the stinging was mixed with a secret pleasure.
The body's memory of him is too deep.
Lin Ran pushed him hard.
Chen Jinghan remained motionless, caressing the back of her neck with his large palm, sneering, "Including yesterday's detention, you already owe me twice. How about a slap in the face for ten times?
If we can’t finish it in one night, we can spread it out over several nights or even during the day.”
Lin Ran was held in his arms, and could clearly feel his burning body temperature. Her whole body tensed up, and her face suddenly turned pale.
"Brother, we will be discovered."
Her voice trembled, and she tried to struggle but had no strength left in her body. She suddenly felt a sense of despair.
When Shen Jinghan saw her little face as pure as a gardenia, his eyes suddenly darkened. He suddenly picked her up and walked towards the bathroom.
