After being reminded by the system, Shen Jiao remembered.
It turns out that just yesterday, the original owner dug out the only thing left by Ji Yanqing's deceased mother, a necklace, from Ji Yanqing's room. And threw it into the pool in the back garden in front of Ji Yanqing, but Ji Yanqing jumped in and picked it up on the spot.
Although it is already spring, the temperature outside is still very low. The pool was open-air, and the water in it was so icy, so the original owner was really capable of doing it.
When the servant here saw that Shen Jiao had not responded, he became anxious and said, "Master, he is still your brother after all. It is not easy to explain to him if something happens."
Mother Chen on the side heard that it was about Ji Yanqing, and seeing that Shen Jiao had nothing to say, she immediately straightened her back and said loudly:
"What kind of thing is Ji Yanqing? If he dies, it's because of his own bad luck! How dare you bother the lady with such a trivial matter!" She seemed to have regained her usual aura, and her voice was even more powerful this time.
Shen Jiao finally came to her senses, interrupted Mother Chen, and hurriedly said to the servant: "Then go and call the doctor!" She was not afraid that Ji Yanqing would be like this. After all, he was the protagonist, how could it be so easy? Just die.
What she was worried about was that Ji Yanqing would blame this matter on her, making the already difficult task even worse.
After receiving Shen Jiao's instructions, the servant responded and immediately went out to notify the doctor.
Shen Jiao ignored the pain in her head and hurriedly put on her shoes and followed her downstairs.
…
The small room was dark and humid, and the cold and humid air penetrated along the skin and into the bones. Shen Jiao shivered as soon as she stepped into the room.
Why is it so cold?
Shen Jiao looked around and found that there was no heating facility in the house, and the windows were still leaking.
The room was filled with things, some of which belonged to Ji Yanqing, and most of them were debris, piled together in a mess.
It seems that the utility room was given to Ji Yanqing as his bedroom.
Chen Ma was worried that Shen Jiao's body also came with her. Seeing that Shen Jiao noticed some extra things in Ji Yanqing's room, she hurried forward with a complacent tone in her voice:
"Miss, this room and everything in it are arranged according to your instructions. Are you satisfied?"
Shen Jiao, who now only wants to hug Ji Yanqing's thigh: "..."
She was so...satisfied.
Shen Jiao managed not to let herself be defeated by this tragic reality. After calming down her grief and anger for a while, she returned her attention to her target - Ji Yanqing.
Ji Yanqing lay unconscious on the bed, with two layers of quilts stacked on top of him.
The quilt was also old, white, and didn't look warm.
Ji Yanqing's eyes were tightly closed, his crow-feathered eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and his brows were slightly wrinkled in his sleep. It was obvious that he was not sleeping peacefully.
The bridge of his nose was high, his face had an abnormal blush, and his thin skin covered his neat and smooth jawline, like a fragile sculpture. But even such a haggard look could not conceal Ji Yanqing's excellent appearance.
He is out of tune with his surroundings.
This was Shen Jiao's first thought when she saw Ji Yanqing.
Considering Ji Yanqing's condition, Shen Jiao asked Chen's mother to arrange for someone to move Ji Yanqing to another place.
"Miss, I understand." Mother Chen immediately expressed that she understood what Shen Jiao meant, "I will ask someone to throw him outside right now."
Shen Jiao was shocked: Mother Chen, please don’t hurt me!
Shen Jiao grabbed Chen's mother who was about to call someone: "He's already like this. Wouldn't it cost his life to throw him outside?"
Shen Jiao deliberately lowered her voice, leaned into Chen Ma's ear and threatened, "Do you want to harm me? If he dies, if word gets out, we will all go to jail."
Mother Chen was so frightened that she waved her hands repeatedly and hurriedly expressed her sincerity: "No, I didn't, miss. How could I harm you? You have to believe me!"
Shen Jiao also accepted the offer and asked Chen's mother to quickly arrange for someone to take Ji Yanqing back to his previous room for resettlement.
The doctor who rushed over in a hurry did a set of examinations on Ji Yanqing and found that Ji Yanqing's condition was not optimistic. Fortunately, he was found in time and it was not serious.
The doctor gave him an injection and prescribed some medicine. Before leaving, he also told the servant some precautions. If he was still not well, he should be contacted in time.
"Mama Chen, you all go down first." Ma Chen must be sent away. Shen Jiao was really afraid that Ma Chen would come up with some idea to abuse Ji Yanqing again, and she couldn't resist it anymore.
After everyone left, Shen Jiao walked to Ji Yanqing's bedside, lowered her head and stared at it carefully for a while.
The temperature in the room gradually increased, and Ji Yanqing's face looked much better. He seemed to be overheated and lifted the quilt a little, exposing his arms to the air.
"What are you moving about?" Shen Jiao muttered, but walked over to cover him with the quilt.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Shen Jiao stretched out her hand, Ji Yanqing noticed her approach, and his slender wrist was firmly grasped by him.
Shen Jiao tried to break away, but Ji Yanqing was still ill and didn't know where he could find the strength. Shen Jiao tried for a long time, pulling his fingers and her own hand, but still failed.
It even made my hands red.
[Are you sure he didn't wake up? ] Shen Jiao expressed doubts.
[After testing, yes. 】
Shen Jiao looked at Ji Yanqing in disbelief, is this still a human being? He was so energetic even when he was asleep.
After Shen Jiao's troubles, Ji Yanqing, who fell into a coma, seemed to sense something. His eyelashes trembled slightly, and his thin lips made a sound like talking in his sleep.
Shen Jiao got closer and vaguely heard the word "mom" from Ji Yanqing's broken and fuzzy voice.
Shen Jiao thought for a while and felt that Ji Yanqing was quite pitiful. He had lost his mother since he was a child, had to live under someone else's roof and had been bullied all the time. She thought that he was not awake yet anyway, so she bent down and hugged him gently, patting him comfortingly.
Ji Yanqing was confused and thought of his mother's death in his sleep. He held Shen Jiao's hand tightly, as if a drowned person had finally found the driftwood of hope, stubbornly and humbly unwilling to let her leave.
After all, once a person in the cold receives warmth, he will not let it go easily.
Seeing that Ji Yanqing was holding her tighter, Shen Jiao had no choice but to sit next to Ji Yanqing and wait for him to wake up.
People easily fall asleep in a warm environment, and Shen Jiao was bored staying here, so she simply lay on the bedside and fell asleep.
…
Sultry heat and humidity were Ji Yan's first feelings when he woke up. The soft big bed lying under him, the luxurious chandelier on the roof reflecting the dazzling light, and the faint fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose all showed that he was out of place.
Noticing the sound of breathing coming from beside him, Ji Yanqing turned his head slightly and saw Shen Jiao taking a nap.
Shen Jiao, who was sleeping quietly on her stomach, was different from her usual appearance and looked very well-behaved. The face without makeup was rouge-like pink, as delicate as a flower.
The aroma is stronger.
It seemed to be coming from her flesh, radiating through her warm breath, blowing over his arms bit by bit.
Very itchy.
Ji Yanqing suddenly shook off Shen Jiao's hand as if he had been pricked by a needle. The movement was so large that Shen Jiao was frightened and woke up immediately.
Shen Jiao stood up in confusion. She hadn't fully woken up yet. There was a pink mark on her cheeks from leaning on her arm for a long time, making her look particularly charming.
Shen Jiao turned to look at Ji Yanqing blankly, and found that the other person had stood up and was sitting on the bed, staring at her with his dark eyes, which were extremely cold and full of disgust, as if he wanted to eat her alive.
"What are you doing here?" Ji Yanqing asked in a cold voice. He was still ill and his voice was hoarse.
Shen Jiao suddenly felt a little angry. She was taking care of him and coaxing him to sleep, but in the end, he was staring at her with such malicious eyes.
Shen Jiao forgot her identity for a moment and blurted out: "Can't you see that I'm here to take care of you?"
