There was something disorganized about his voice.
Qing Wu wanted to take her hand back, but then she remembered that Pei Jue's wrist was still injured and blood would ooze if it was pulled, so she decided to give it up.
"Pei Jue?"
Pei Jue opened his eyes slightly, his eyes were a little blurry, but he was awake at least.
"Xiaowu? Wasn't I dreaming just now? Why are you here?"
Qingwu didn't answer his question, but took the water glass on the bedside table and handed it over.
"Take the fever-reducing medicine."
"good."
After watching Pei Jue take the antipyretic medicine, Qing Wu helped him lie down again.
Those obsidian eyes were bottomless, but they were shining brightly at this moment. No matter what Qingnu was doing, they followed her and never moved away for a moment.
Qing Wu's face felt a little hot under his gaze, and she inexplicably thought of what Annie said just now.
"The boss wants to go to Big Dipper because he also wants to know some things about the eldest lady's past. He said he would go there even if he doesn't investigate the eldest lady."
Just because he thinks those things are dangerous, does he want to do them himself?
Qing Wu looked at the weak Pei Jue in front of her. His face was a little pale, but his eyes were wet due to the high fever. He stared at her with fragile and moist eyes.
"I remember that I seemed to have told Anne not to disturb her fiancée, but she still called you here. I'm sorry to disturb your sweet dream."
"Why don't you want me to come?"
Pei Jue reached out and touched Qingnu's face. Because of the fever, his whole body was burning, and his palms were hot against Qingnu's face.
"Xiaowu, tell me, are you worried about me?"
He wanted his girl to remember her, but he didn't want her to be distracted by him, but when he saw her, he wanted to ask for an answer.
Pei Jue narrowed his eyes slightly, with a lingering smile on his lips, just like the moonlight still hanging high outside the window.
"If I told you and found out that you weren't worried about me at all, I'd be worried that I would be heartbroken."
He was half-joking, but also half-babbled, with a strong sense of exhaustion and nostalgia in his voice.
Qing Wu's eyelashes trembled slightly and she pushed Pei Jue back into the quilt.
"Go to sleep."
"Now, you don't have to worry about getting your heart broken. Your heart is fine."
The medicine took effect, and it was hard to tell whether it was due to fatigue or happiness, which made the corners of Pei Jue's mouth curl up.
When she said she wouldn't be heartbroken, did she mean... was she actually a little bit worried about him?
Qing Wu frowned slightly and looked at Pei Jue who fell asleep again.
Why did she think that the cause of Pei Jue's fever was not the wound but the cold?
His wound was not inflamed, but his high fever seemed to be caused by being showered with cold water.
Anne's injuries were obviously more serious.
Qing Wu was still thinking, but she felt her hand being held by Pei Jue, and the man placed a passionate kiss on her hand.
"Good night."
Qing Wu retracted her hand, pulled Pei Jue's quilt up to cover his face, and walked out of the house hand in hand!
Annie, who had just left Pei's mansion, glanced in the direction of her boss's house.
"Oh, I wonder if the eldest lady will find out if the boss is so injured and gives himself a fever?"
"Probably not!"
After all, the wound is real, it’s just that the process is a little more tortuous, so the result will be the same, right?
…
Early the next morning.
Qing Wu yawned and went downstairs, and saw Zuo Wanjun hugging Su Mi and smiling lovingly.
Zuo Wanjun is soft-hearted. The biggest setback she has ever encountered in half her life was the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, which was considered soul-stirring.
She saw burn marks all over Su Mi's body, and tears of distress fell down.
"Does it hurt, kid? Don't worry, Auntie knows several plastic surgeons and they will definitely cure you!"
"It's okay, auntie. Doctor Shen said he can be cured."
Shen Zhongshuang, who had just come downstairs, staggered when he heard this and almost missed his last step on the stairs.
Shen Jushi asked in confusion: "When did the second brother also conduct research on burns? Did he change the subject?"
Shen Zhongshuang was strong and calm and coughed twice: "Professor Chen has research, I will study along the way."
Once she heard that Chen Jianhong had a solution, Zuo Wanjun also felt relieved.
"That's great. As expected of Professor Chen! Mimi will be staying at our house recently. Auntie will prepare delicious food for you!"
The rest of the Shen family did not show any abnormality to Su Mi's arrival.
It was as if it was natural for her to appear at the Shen family's dining table.
On the other hand, the Shen brothers looked a little unkindly at Pei Jue who appeared at the dinner table.
Especially when they saw that he asked their sister to pick up food for him because his wrist was bandaged, the eyes of the four sons of the Shen family became a little strange.
Shen Jushi couldn't hold it back and gritted his teeth: "Since Mr. Pei is not in good health, he should go to the hospital and lie down."
Shen Dongli slapped him down: "Why are you so angry! What's wrong with Ah Jue coming to have a meal? You're the only one who talks too much! Ah Jue, if you leave him and eat more, how can you get hurt if you're so good?"
Pei Jue took the porridge that Qing Wu served and said, "Thank you, Xiao Wu. I'm worried about my uncle. He was injured accidentally while the project team was inspecting. It's nothing serious."
Mr. Pei looked at Pei Jue and smiled.
"Since you're injured, don't go to the group for the next two days. If the group is gone, you can still go around. Just stay at home with Xiaowu!"
He had long been dissatisfied when he saw that Pei Jue only cared about going to work and not spending time with his grandson-in-law!
Now it's time for him to find a chance.
Mr. Shen looked at Mr. Pei with a smile.
"It's not easy for Ah Jue. You're an old man and you're not dead yet. Go help the children with work for a few days!"
"What class do I go to? How old am I that I still have to help him work?"
Pei Jue saw Mr. Shen blinking at him, and there was a smile on his face.
He deliberately said to Mr. Pei: "Grandpa, I still need to go to a meeting to sign a contract."
Mr. Pei hated the iron and said: "Is there any contract that you have to go to in person? I will go and look at it for you for two days! I don't believe that there can be any big troubles if I am here!"
"Then thank you grandpa."
Mr. Pei realized belatedly, why did he agree to help Pei Jue go to work?
Are there any people at his age still working in a group?
But who makes his grandson look so pale? It makes people feel distressed just looking at him. Mr. Pei has controlled the Pei family for many years. When he goes to work, he just signs a contract and goes through the process, which is not a big deal.
Shen Jushi looked at Pei Jue, and his temples were beating.
"Mr. Pei, it's not just your hands that are injured. You can still do your own eating, right?"
Why does he need his sister to feed him? Please ask?
He felt heartbroken just looking at this picture!
Pei Jue smiled innocently at Shen Jushi, "It's inconvenient to eat with your left hand, so I have to trouble Xiaowu."
inconvenient? !
Shen Jushi clearly remembered that when he went to Pei's to discuss cooperation, Pei Jue signed with his left hand!
A person who writes with his left hand tells him that eating is inconvenient?
It happened that Pei Jue was sick now, Zuo Wanjun glared at Shen Jishi.
"Don't look for trouble! Enjoy your food!"
Pei Jue reached out and took away the spoon from Qing Wu's hand, "I can do it myself. It would be bad if my fiancée is delayed from eating because of me."
"Well, call me again if necessary."
Shen Jushi rolled his eyes.
This guy must have done it on purpose!
His innocent and lovely sister was deceived by this big pig like Pei Jue!
