Jing Xiao listened to her lesson and reminded, "I'm married."
"Don't worry, we will break up in a year." Tang Muzhi replied without hesitation, not forgetting to give him a big look.
It was clearly written in the agreement last night that they would divorce within a year if they had no relationship. At that time, she would not rely on him. This kind of man who would change the password of the door at every turn and shut himself out, She doesn't want it.
"We will divorce you only if we don't have feelings within a year." He reminded me again.
The corner of Tang Muzhi's mouth curled up with a mocking arc, she stared into his eyes and snorted coldly: "Don't worry, we definitely don't have feelings. After all, if you don't like me, I won't fall in love with you."
Hearing this, Jing Xiao's eyebrows furrowed again and he stared at her displeased.
This girl is really crazy, she doesn't even listen to good or bad words.
"By the way, have you forgotten the password for this door or don't want to give it to me?" Tang Muzhi's eyes fell on that door, a flash of irritation flashed in his eyes, and he continued, "I don't want to go out tomorrow and not be able to come back. coming."
"I'll send you the password later." A flash of embarrassment flashed across Jing Xiao's face. What happened tonight was indeed that he went too far.
"Just tell me directly, I can remember it. Mr. Jing, you noble man, forget things more often, lest you forget them again later."
Tang Muzhi's words were so sinister that she was obviously mocking him.
Jing Xiao sighed, knowing that he deserved it, so he didn't care, "The password is 122910."
"Okay, I got it." She responded, then turned and walked directly to the bedroom, sneezing as she walked, and when she reached the door, she didn't forget to tell her, "Pick up the books and put them away for me."
After hearing the sound of the door being closed, Jing Xiao looked down at the book at his feet.
This little guy not only hit himself with it, but also had to pick up the murder weapon and put it away. It was really unreasonable.
He smiled bitterly, but still obediently bent down to pick up the book and put it back to its original position.
Tang Mu Zhi returned to the bedroom. When she came out of the shower, she felt a dull pain in her temples.
She had been unable to sleep in the past two days, but she slept deeply tonight.
But in the middle of the night, her whole body started to burn.
In a daze, she dreamed of her childhood days in Tanzhou.
At that time, grandma was still there. In midsummer, they sat under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air. They had a wicker chair and a cattail leaf fan, and they could sit there for a long time.
"Grandma..." She murmured in her mouth, unconsciously wanting to reach out and touch her, but her body seemed unable to move.
Jing Xiao came out to pour water when he was thirsty. After being awakened by her voice, he walked to her door and knocked on the door to remind her, but found that the people in the room were still talking nonsense, as if they were trapped in a dream.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally opened the door.
There was a warm desk lamp on the bedside, and the orange-red light illuminated the entire room. Tang Muzhi was wearing cartoon pajamas and curled up into a small ball on the bed.
Her long eyelashes drooped slightly, covering her eyelids, her fair and beautiful little face was flushed, sweat appeared on her forehead, and her delicate brows were tightly knitted, looking very uncomfortable.
Jing Xiao thought of the cold wind blowing outside for so long tonight and kept sneezing when she entered the house. He felt a little worried, so he stepped into her room for the first time.
When he walked to the bed, suddenly, the person on the bed reached out and grabbed him, and the hot temperature of his palms startled him.
He was stunned for a moment, then realized what she was doing. He immediately bent down and touched her forehead, which was frighteningly hot.
She has a fever!
The person on the bed kept mumbling, his voice was weak, and it was hard to hear what was being said.
Jing Xiao didn't think much, turned around and walked out of the room. After returning to his bedroom, he called his personal doctor.
At around three o'clock in the morning, Tang Mu Zhi's body temperature dropped a little, but she still fell asleep and did not wake up.
Jing Xiao didn't go back to his room, but stayed on the sofa beside her bed.
At this moment, he felt really guilty and self-blame. Maybe Tang Muzhi was right. It was really ridiculous that he, a thirty-year-old man, would do such childish things.
Time ticked by, and the sunlight outside the window slowly filtered in, but the person on the bed was not awake yet.
Jing Xiao didn't sleep all night, and his hanging heart never let go.
About half an hour later, the person on the bed showed signs of waking up.
A familiar smell first poured into Tang Muzhi's nose. Then, she slowly opened her eyes and saw the blue and white curtains in her room.
She was stunned for a few seconds, and then she saw the man sitting on the sofa next to her.
"Are you awake?" Jing Xiao glanced at her and said apologetically, "You have a fever."
Tang Muzhi's head was dizzy and her whole body was weak, but she still struggled to sit up. "What time is it? I should go to school."
Hearing this, Jing Xiao stepped forward and held her shoulders, pushed her back onto the bed, and warned her sternly: "You have a good rest today. Over at the school, I have already asked for leave for you."
She was so weak that she couldn't exert any strength. She couldn't help but frown, and her voice was weak and had a strong nasal sound, "I'm fine."
Seeing her stubborn look, Jing Xiao's frown deepened, but he still spoke to her in a slow tone, "Be obedient and lie down well. Your fever reached 38 degrees last night."
Upon hearing this, she pretended to smile relaxedly, her pale face without any blood, looking a little scary, and murmured: "I'm just telling you, why did my head hurt when I went to bed last night."
Jing Xiao looked at her and apologized seriously, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have locked you out last night, and I shouldn't have let you blow the cold wind at the door for so long. Otherwise, you wouldn't have a fever."
Tang Mu Zhi was startled, and a trace of sadness arose inexplicably in her heart, but she didn't say anything and just closed her eyes again.
In fact, she was somewhat grateful to Jing Xiao. If it hadn't been for him, she wouldn't have been able to dream of her grandma whom she hadn't seen for a long time when she was so dizzy with fever.
In the past few months, this was the first time she dreamed about her grandma. The little old lady was really cruel and refused to see her in her dream for so long. Last night, she finally saw her.
Therefore, she didn't need Jing Xiao to apologize, she even needed to thank him.
Tang Mu Zhi calmed down her emotions, opened her eyes again, pushed herself up, and prepared to get out of bed.
Seeing that she still wanted to get up, Jing Xiao ordered with some displeasure: "You just lie down and rest today, and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
"I..." She was about to explain, but she coughed violently.
"Stop talking." Jing Xiao reminded her while patting her on the back, "Winter colds are the most troublesome. If you don't get a good rest, you may not be cured until the final exam."
She coughed until her cheeks turned red, and her ears and neck turned pink. She took a breath, pushed his arm away, and whispered in an awkward voice: "I just want to go to the bathroom."
"Ah?" Jing Xiao choked, a blush appeared on his handsome face, and said slightly embarrassed, "Let me help you over."
"No need." She shook her head, then lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
Tang Mu Zhi was originally tall and slender, but now she was so weak that she looked as if she could be blown away by the wind.
As soon as she stood up, her legs suddenly became weak, and then there was a heartbreaking pain in her ankle. She couldn't help but groaned and almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Jing Xiao had quick eyes and quick hands and caught her in time.
"Be careful." After saying that, he picked her up directly.
Suddenly flying into the air, Tang Muzhi's pupils suddenly shrank, and she raised her eyes in a panic, "Mr. Jing, you really don't need it."
"Stop being so pushy." He spoke in a low voice, his tone was light, but it was unquestionably domineering.
Tang Muzhi only felt that the tip of her nose was filled with the smell of male hormones. This feeling made her a little overwhelmed. She lowered her eyes, pursed her lips tightly, and said nothing.
They were so close that her heart was beating extremely fast, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
After entering, Jing Xiao carefully put her down and told her, "I'll go out first. Call me when you're ready."
"Yeah." She responded in a low voice, but she didn't dare to look at him from beginning to end.
After he left and the bathroom door was closed, Tang Muzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
What he just did was really as intimate and natural as a husband taking care of his wife.
The scene she saw in a daze last night suddenly appeared in her mind. Thinking of this, there was a dull pain in her heart, and the tip of her nose became sour.
Did he really take care of him all night?
After a while, Tang Muzhi walked to the sink and stood still, her eyes gradually focused, staring at herself in the mirror, looking embarrassed and haggard, with a bitter smile on her lips, she laughed at herself for thinking too much.
Jing Xiao didn't hear her voice for a long time and became inexplicably worried.
Now he wanted to knock on the door, but he was afraid of disturbing her. After thinking for a moment, he decided to wait.
However, he had decided in his heart that he might take this opportunity to find a servant to serve him. In that case, many things would be more convenient.
After a few minutes, Tang Muzhi came out of the bathroom on his own.
She held the door and walked very slowly.
Seeing this, Jing Xiao immediately stepped forward to meet her, supported her, and asked, "Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable?"
"No." She curled her lips slightly and smiled lightly.
Back on the bed, Tang Mu Zhi lay on her side, looking out the window, her expression calm and unruffled, her eyes dim, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Jing Xiao stared at her silently for a while, and then said: "I will find a nanny to come over in the afternoon. It will be more convenient for her to take care of you."
When she heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then refused, "No, I'm just sick. I'll be fine in two days. It's not like I can't take care of myself, so there's no need to hire a nanny."
Jing Xiao raised his eyebrows, obviously a little surprised, "What? Don't you like having strangers at home?"
"I just don't think it's necessary to spend this money."
They just agreed to get married. As long as he was willing to give her a place to live for free, there was no need for anyone to wait on her.
