Chapter 716: Are You Better Now? You’re Conscious? Do You Remember Everything?

Although Mo Jingshen had fainted abruptly due to his high fever, when the doctor rushed over, he was still able to open his eyes slightly. He hoarsely informed them not to frighten Ji Nuan, to accompany her to wait in the living room, and to not say anything that would scare her.

After giving him a check up, the doctor asked: “CEO Mo, did you used to have gastric problems?”

Mo Jingshen closed his eyes as he laid on the bed, answering hoarsely: “I did. Two years ago in Los Angeles, I worked frequently without having sufficient sleep, and ate at irregular hours for a long period. I was then admitted to the hospital for gastrospasm.”

“That must be it. Your body is very healthy, but due to your previous gastric problems, your body cannot tolerate too much cold food. I’ve stayed here for many years and I’m aware of the living habits of the people here. You must have had too much seafood for the past few days. It’s likely that your gastric was already beginning to feel poor. Did you have an ice-coffee or the like after?”

Mo Jingshen rubbed his forehead, answering weakly with a sigh: “I had a few glasses.”

The doctor nodded. “It’s acute gastritis caused by too much irritation. It’s not a large problem, but it’s better to keep to light foods for the next few days. Right now, your temperature is quite high. After your fever subsides, take your antibiotics on time. You should recover in two to three days. There’s no need to be worried.”

Mo Jingshen did not say anything. He glanced at the employee who had just stepped in. “Where is she?”

“Mrs. Mo is in the living room. Please set your mind at ease. We’ve been comforting her this whole time. It seems that she is quite worried for you and her complexion is quite poor. Should we let the doctor give her a check up as well?”

Mo Jingshen raised his hand with some difficulties and stopped the doctor from stepping out. “She’s very resistant to an unfamiliar doctor’s touch. Just accompany her quietly.”

The employee nodded and left without saying more.

Westerners rarely took injections, unless it was really necessary.

The doctor prescribed Mo Jingshen with some fever reducer and antibiotics and instructed the employees to prepare an ice bag to aid his recovery. He made sure that there were no other issues before leaving, and informed Mo Jingshen that he would stay in this hotel tonight; if there were any issues, Mo Jingshen could contact him any time. There was no need to worry.

Mo Jingshen nodded lightly.

After the doctor left, the hotel employees asked if he needed someone to stay and take care of him. However, Mo Jingshen indicated for them to leave, in case they made Ji Nuan uncomfortable.

It was late into the night, and the time was 2:00 a.m.. Ji Nuan stood in the living room but did not feel drowsy at all. She stood before the windows, facing the azure seaview. She did not dare to enter the main bedroom even after the doctor and hotel employees had left. She heard them say that Shenshen’s fever was extremely serious, and that he needed proper rest after taking his medicine. She feared that she would disturb him and stood outside the whole time.

However, for the past hour and a half, the more Ji Nuan could not see him, the more anxious she became.

She leaned forward and pressed her forehead against the ceiling-to-floor windows; her gaze was somewhat dazed as she faced the ink-black sky and the seaview.

In this large island, it was possible to catch the sight of the tides receding at a fixed time everyday, and now was the very moment. The peaceful surface of the sea slowly rose and with a greater force than it did with the daylight, it surged up incessantly to approach the beach and the distant skerries.

Ji Nuan watched the view outside in a daze; multiple scenes replayed continuously in her mind. She closed her head and knocked her head against the window; it didn’t hurt much, but the sensation of her head knocking against the ice-cold window seemed to alleviate the strange ache in her mind.

She closed her eyes, but could not stop seeing the scene of Mo Jingshen collapsing on the study floor.

Ji Nuan knitted her brows and raised her hand to press on her aching forehead with force. Abruptly, she heard two light coughs from the bedroom. She opened her eyes wide and rushed to run into the bedroom.

The fever reducer Mo Jingshen took must have taken effect; his forehead was covered in sweat, but the medicine kept him in deep sleep.

When she saw the sweat on his forehead, Ji Nuan approached his bedside and took the tissues from the side drawer to dap messily at his forehead. A few moments later, his forehead was covered in sweat again. With reddened eyes, Ji Nuan continued wiping for him, saying: “Shenshen, this is all my fault. I don’t even know how to take care of you...”

In his unconscious state, Mo Jingshen seemed to have heard her voice. He knitted his brows but did not awake.

Ji Nuan reached for the ice bag that had fallen off to the side and touched Mo Jingshen’s forehead. She instinctively felt that his temperature wasn’t as high as earlier. A moment later, she seemed to have thought of something and tossed the tissue box she was holding in her arms aside. She ran toward the bathroom and filled a pail with tap water. She then brought the pail and a clean towel out to return to his bedside. She soaked the towel in the pail and wrung it till it was half-dry. She then wiped the sweat off of his forehead bit by bit, over and over again.

After more than half an hour, he finally stopped sweating. Ji Nuan placed her hand on his forehead again and confirmed that he no longer had a fever, before finally bringing the pail back to the bathroom.

For the entire night, Ji Nuan returned to his bedside every so often to watch him. She did not stand by the windows to watch the waves again. When it was almost daylight, she instinctively entered the kitchen. Not too long later, she returned to the bedroom.

——

8:00 a.m.

Mo Jingshen opened his eyes. His fever had already recovered last night. When he awoke, he felt a night of good rest took away any discomfort he previously had. He rarely fell ill, and whenever he had a fever, he would be all right once the fever reduced.

The moment he turned his head, he saw the little woman fast asleep on his bedside. It seemed like Ji Nuan did not rest well last night. The man slowly raised his hand and rubbed her forehead.

The moment he touched her, Ji Nuan startled awake. She raised her head to watch him: “You’re awake?”

Mo Jingshen’s hand froze as he stared into her eyes. Although her gaze was drowsy, it was undeniable clear. The sight of it caused his heart to slam against its ribcage.

Ji Nuan thought he was feeling unwell and reached out to touch his forehead: “You’re no longer having a fever. Is your gastric making you uncomfortable? I made porridge with some of our remaining uncooked grains last night. It’s been cooking in the rice cooker all night. It should be ready now. I’ll go bring you some.”

Ji Nuan turned and headed out.

However, Mo Jingshen’s gaze was completely fixated on her back view; no matter if it was her gaze or her tone...

He abruptly sat up, tore aside his sheets and stepped out of the room. He watched as Ji Nuan closed the small window next to the ceiling-to-floor windows and headed for the kitchen. He suddenly spoke up: “Ji Nuan.”

Ji Nuan paused in her footsteps but did not turn back.

“You’re better now?” his tone was careful but certain.

Ji Nuan did not respond and continued heading for the kitchen.

Mo Jingshen immediately moved and with several steps, he caught up to her. He held her shoulders and forced her to turn around, lowering his head to look into her eyes. “Tell me, are you better now? You’re conscious? You remember everything? En?”
