"How come your body temperature is so high..."
Gu Xiwan's voice was trembling.
The maximum temperature of the thermometer is forty-five degrees, and Chu Lingjue's body temperature has climbed to the upper limit. His actual body temperature may be higher than forty-five degrees. Gu Xiwan has never seen this in more than a year of medical practice. Have you ever experienced a patient with such a fever?
Chu Lingjue's eyebrows were cool and he said without any trace,
"I don't know the reason either."
At this time, Qin Yueying, who had been waiting outside the door before, walked in and explained as he walked,
"Young madam, I forgot to tell you that when Butler Cheng and I handled the discharge operation for Emperor Ye, the doctor said that Emperor Ye might have symptoms of high fever at any time during his recovery. Therefore, the doctor specially prescribed a powerful medicine for Emperor Ye. For antipyretics, when the young master has a fever, just prepare a packet of medicine for the young master and feed him to take it."
Gu Xiwan's tense body gradually relaxed.
Indeed, it is reasonable for people to experience high fever after being injured or having surgery... However, it is rare for someone to have a fever like Chu Lingjue...
While Gu Xiwan was distracted, Qin Yueying had already taken down a box of medicine from the medicine shelf by the window, waved it in front of Gu Xiwan's eyes and said,
"This is the powerful antipyretic medicine prescribed by the doctor to Emperor Ye. I believe in that doctor. I believe that Emperor Ye will be cured of his illness after taking this medicine."
As he spoke, he quickly washed a packet of medicine with warm water, and then fed Chu Lingjue to drink it.
After Chu Lingjue drank the medicine, Qin Yueying immediately asked,
"Ye Emperor, do you feel better now?"
Chu Lingjue's expression seemed to be much more relaxed, and he said coldly and calmly,
"much better."
Seeing Chu Lingjue's appearance, Qin Yueying couldn't help but smile.
"But I'm still worried. I think the young lady is also worried about it. How about you ask the young lady to take your temperature again?"
Chu Lingjue raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Xiwan.
"Um."
"Young Madam, why are you still standing still? Please help Ye Di take his temperature."
Qin Yueying grabbed Gu Xiwan's shirt.
Only then did Gu Xiwan come to her senses. She cleared the actual temperature of the thermometer and handed the thermometer to Chu Lingjue again.
A few minutes later, after measuring Chu Lingjue's temperature, he returned the thermometer to Gu Xiwan. Gu Xiwan took a closer look and found that this time, Chu Lingjue's body temperature was already a normal 36.5 degrees.
Gu Xiwan could not have imagined that that antipyretic medicine would have such a miraculous effect. It would have immediate effects and cure the disease!
She picked up the box of medicine and took a look at it. The box was densely written with characters she didn't recognize in which language. As a doctor, Gu Xiwan had never seen this kind of medicine.
Gu Xiwan was studying the box of medicine intently when she heard Qin Yueying sigh sadly,
"Ye Di, you are so pitiful. You will have to die tonight. I hope I wake up tomorrow morning and see you alive instead of your corpse."
Gu Xiwan was frightened by Qin Yueying's words and shuddered.
Chu Lingjue looked like he had seen through life and death clearly, and he opened his white teeth and thin lips and said,
"If you find out that I am dead, there is no need to hold a grand funeral for me. I have left my will with Lawyer Li. You can contact Lawyer Li now to prepare my funeral affairs according to my will. "
Gu Xiwan was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat.
"Okay, Emperor Ye, I'm going to find Lawyer Li now."
Qin Yueying turned around and left.
"Sister Shadow, wait!" Gu Xiwan hurriedly stopped Qin Yueying. Even though she pretended to be calm, there was unconcealable fear in her clear eyes.
"What on earth were you and Chu Lingjue talking about just now? Didn't I already bandage his wound? Why won't he survive tonight?"
"Young madam, you just saw with your own eyes how severe Ye Di's fever is. The doctor said that Ye Di's fever will be more serious at night than during the day. This medicine has serious side effects. People should take this medicine when their body temperature is normal. The medicine will cause immeasurable damage to the brain and may lead to dementia, so you cannot give Ye Di medicine in advance, you can only give it to him when he has a high fever."
After listening to Qin Yueying's words, the confusion in Gu Xiwan's eyes became even stronger.
"Then, wouldn't it be enough to give him medicine when he has a fever at night?"
"This is the crux of the problem..." Qin Yueying shook her head.
"Young Madam, you also know how stubborn Ye Emperor is. Butler Cheng and I both want to stay by his side tonight, but he will never allow a second person besides you to sleep with him. Stay with him while you...
And you have been sleeping in a separate bed with him for a long time, not to mention that you are now resentful of Ye Di's accidental affair with Miss Sheng... that... and it is even more impossible for you to sleep in the same room with him, so...
well!
no way!
Whether Ye Di can survive tonight can only depend on God's face. If God wants him to live, don't let him have a fever again. If God takes him to heaven, he can only burn him alive! "
Gu Xiwan breathed a sigh of relief.
"It turns out that it was just because of something like this. I thought Chu Lingjue's wound was infected or he had a terminal illness. Don't worry, Sister Shadow. I will make an exception tonight. Chu Lingjue and I are in the same room. sleep."
"Excellent, young lady, you saved Ye Di's life by doing this!"
Qin Yueying happily took Gu Xiwan's hand and told her worriedly,
"Once Ye Di gets a high fever, he will fall into a coma within a short period of time. He is very likely to be burned to death in his sleep without realizing it. Therefore, you must sleep in the same bed with him, so that you can sleep for the first time. I noticed something unusual about him for a moment, please!”
this……
Gu Xiwan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
All right!
Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.
Even though she has decided to distance herself from Chu Lingjue, Chu Lingjue is still her husband after all, and she still owes Chu Lingjue too many favors. Tonight, she will accompany Chu Lingjue like a senior nurse and save him. Give him a life...
Gu Xiwan didn't want to stay in front of Chu Lingjue for a long time, so she left the study after talking to Qin Yueying.
Gu Xiwan didn't see that the moment she walked out of the study, Qin Yueying and Chu Lingjue both showed successful smiles.
After making sure that Gu Xiwan was far away and could not hear the voices in the study, Qin Yueying said,
"Ye Di, when you and the young lady are alone in the bedroom and sleeping in the same bed at night, I won't be able to help you. Everything will have to depend on your own efforts."
At this moment, Chu Lingjue's eyes, which had always been as cold as ice crystals, revealed a scorching light.
"You don't need to remind me about this kind of thing."
The voice was cold and indifferent, and my heart was inexplicably restless.
Sharing the same bed with Gu Xiwan...
Chu Lingjue could not have imagined that even though he had just lost a lot of blood, as soon as he thought about sleeping with Gu Xiwan tonight, fragrant and fiery scenes would still appear in his mind. picture.
Damn it!
Chu Lingjue discovered that after meeting Gu Xiwan, he who was once cold and abstinent, actually went further and further down the road of love between men and women. He often wanted to get entangled with Gu Xiwan and do shameful things.
Mu Yunian went for a walk in the yard with the servant again.
Gu Xiwan didn't sleep well last night. She walked too much today and was exhausted. She decided to go to her bedroom to catch up on her sleep.
Gu Xiwan was walking along the spiral staircase to the second floor when a servant caught up with him holding a light blue sweater in both hands and said respectfully,
"Young madam, the old lady asked me to give you this sweater before she left yesterday. This sweater was knitted by the old lady herself. The old lady said that she originally wanted to give it to you personally, but you failed to do so for two days in a row. If she doesn’t go home, she doesn’t know where she went. It’s getting colder and colder now, and she doesn’t know when she will come back after leaving. So, I will give it to you after I see you come home.”
Gu Xiwan took the sweater and felt it was soft and soft to the touch, making her feel extremely comfortable.
In the past days, Gu Xiwan always saw Zhou Shutong knitting sweaters, but now she realized that Zhou Shutong was knitting for her.
Gu Xiwan couldn't help but be moved. She held the sweater in her arms and asked,
"Did the old lady leave yesterday? Where did she go?"
"The old lady went to pray for blessings. This time, the old lady went to a city farther away - Su City. The old lady said that it might take more than ten days for her to come back."
The servant finished speaking and left.
Gu Xiwan was still standing on the stairs, feeling lost.
She heard Zhou Shutong talk about a lot of family matters.
Fifteen years ago, something happened to Zhou Shutong's family. Zhou Shutong's husband was forced to take poison and died by the Chu family. She and Chu Lingjue lived on the streets. Starting from that year, Zhou Shutong, who suffered great spiritual trauma, searched for the soul. Comfort, believe in Buddha...
Later, Chu Lingjue, who gradually grew up, turned around the situation with his super strength and made the family glorious again.
Although Zhou Shutong became rich, her pious heart never changed. She was still approachable and charitable.
In fact, Gu Xiwan had long discovered that Zhou Shutong was very similar to her——
Although Zhou Shutong appears indifferent, she has a kind heart;
You will never harm others, but you will never let others take advantage of you, and you will never be lenient to those who maliciously harm you!
Perhaps this is why Gu Xiwan and Zhou Shutong get along so well.
However, Gu Xiwan didn't know how long such harmony could last.
Gu Xiwan decided to give birth to this child. Now, she can still hide the secret that she is not pregnant with Chu Lingjue's child. Once she gives birth to this child, it will be impossible to hide this secret...
Gu Xiwan didn't dare to think whether Zhou Shutong would be so kind to her after finding out that the child she gave birth to was not her biological grandson...
"Madam, it's time for dinner."
"Madam, the young master ordered me to send you downstairs for dinner!"
Gu Xiwan was shaken awake by the servant.
When Gu Xiwan walked into the restaurant, only Qin Yueying and Mu Yunian were sitting at the dining table, but Chu Lingjue was not there.
Qin Yueying seemed to know what Gu Xiwan was thinking, and said meaningfully,
"Ye Di has difficulty moving and won't come to dinner. More importantly, lovers can't get tired of being together all the time. Leaving a little space for each other can be more refreshing. A long absence is better than a new marriage, Wanwan, right?"
Gu Xiwan curled her lips disapprovingly.
Lover?
At best, she and Chu Lingjue could only be regarded as a couple who were tied together by some strange combination of circumstances to live together. How could they be considered lovers?
After Gu Xiwan had dinner, she accompanied Mu Yunian for a walk in the yard. Mu Yunian was so weak that she only yawned after half a lap of the yard.
Gu Xiwan helped her mother walk around the yard and then helped her to the bedroom on the second floor.
After watching her mother fall asleep, Gu Xiwan left quietly.
As soon as Gu Xiwan walked out of Mu Yunian's bedroom, she heard the door open, and immediately after, Chu Lingjue walked out of the bathroom.
Chu Lingjue, who always wore dark clothes in the past, was now wearing a white bathrobe.
The light in the bathroom was dim, but Chu Lingjue seemed to have a fairy spirit, as if a layer of white light enveloped him, handsome, noble, and perfect, just like in a painting.
Looking at Chu Lingjue, Gu Xiwan was stunned.
"Sleepy……"
Chu Lingjue yawned and looked at Gu Xiwan with burning eyes.
"Go to bed with me?"
Gu Xiwan woke up when she heard Chu Lingjue speak. Her lips moved but she didn't speak.
yes!
She said herself that she would sleep with Chu Lingjue tonight...
That's what she said on her own initiative without anyone asking her!
However, at this moment, she suddenly became afraid.
Even though Chu Lingjue was extremely tempting, Gu Xiwan still had full confidence in herself. She was convinced that even if she slept in the same bed as Chu Lingjue, she would definitely be able to resist Chu Lingjue's temptation.
Now, looking at Chu Lingjue in white, Gu Xiwan was unsure.
When Chu Lingjue uncharacteristically "sweet-talked" her in the study room, Gu Xiwan felt her heart melting. At this moment, Chu Lingjue was actually wearing her favorite white clothes...
Just seeing him from a distance, Gu Xiwan got a little hot-headed, and her heart couldn't help but start to get restless. She didn't know if she would be lustful when she slept with such Chu Lingjue. faint……
No!
She must be indifferent to Chu Lingjue!
Nowadays, she can no longer afford to lose any dignity. She wants to be a proud queen, and she must not be blinded by lust!
"I don't want to force anyone to do anything. If you don't want to, you don't have to sleep with me against your will. The worst result is that I die."
Chu Lingjue said indifferently while walking in the direction of his bedroom.
Hearing Chu Lingjue mention the word "death", Gu Xiwan began to feel anxious again.
At this time, Chu Lingjue said again,
"You're right, no matter what, I cheated on you, my body is dirty, and I feel ashamed of myself when I'm with you. Maybe, it's a good thing that I'm dead -
After all, I was injured to save you. If I die tonight, it will be considered as dying for you, and it will also be regarded as a way of apologizing for my disloyalty to you, as long as you forgive me. "
Gu Xiwan has always been soft-spoken.
In the past, no matter how cold and terrifying Chu Lingjue was, she could bravely confront Chu Lingjue tit for tat. However, after hearing Chu Lingjue say these soft words, she could no longer hold back.
He took off all his guard and walked towards Chu Lingjue and said,
"Why don't I just sleep in the same bed with you for one night? I keep my word. Besides, I said you are not my type. You are like a stone to me. I have nothing to worry about."
Chu Lingjue didn't speak anymore, but the corners of his lips raised evilly.
To Gu Xiwan, he was no different than a piece of stone?
Gu Xiwan, let's wait and see!
