Chapter 401 Remembering to take medicine
Qi Changfeng smiled spontaneously and said, “The logic of what you said is quite unique.”
“You can’t understand because this is wisdom.” Gu Yan forgot the previous unpleasantness temporarily and praised herself proudly.
He started the car with a smile and drove towards Gu Yan’s house slowly.
They did not talk with each other all the way back home. Fortunately, it was not far away from her home, so it was not very embarrassing.
Gu Yan leaned against the back of the passenger seat. It seemed that she had fallen asleep. Qi Changfeng would like to wake her up, but he was shocked when he touched her skin with his fingertips. It was hot.
When he thought of it, he reached out and touched her forehead immediately to verify his conjecture. She had a fever!
“Gu Yan?”
She did not respond.
He was a little flustered while he took her upstairs hurriedly to the bed. He planned to give her some antipyretics, but found that she did not have a kettle in the house, not to mention medicine. He rubbed his head in annoyance, thinking that he was so careless. How was she getting by in these hard times?
When Qi Changfeng came back, Gu Yan was still sleeping. He never thought that he would take care of a patient someday and would even prepare water and buy medicine for her.
He stopped thinking immediately when he heard Gu Yan snort softly. He began to boil water with his newly purchased kettle. Perhaps this was love. He sighed and rubbed his forehead. Ever since this girl appeared in his life, he often did some inexplicable things. Moreover, he even did not realize that she really changed him.
Qi Changfeng found that her clothes were completely wet after he gave her antipyretics. Without any thinking, he reached out and wanted to help her change clothes. When he touched her soft and hot body again, he had a slight electrical sensation, which sobered him. He looked at the woman in front of him and thought that although he looked forward to keeping her directly, his education did not allow him to take advantage of her.
He stood up and called his assistant.
“President Qi, do you have any other orders?” Qi Changfeng’s assistant maintained her professional smile and said.
“You go back first. I’ll call you if necessary.” The assistant helped Gu Yan change in clean clothes and dried her hair. Gu Yan fell asleep after taking the medicine. He thought at present he did not need the help of his assistant.
“Okay.” The assistant closed the door gently and then left.
The room was quiet, but it was different from the cold silence of the office. He felt that as long as he stayed with Gu Yan, he would feel cozy even if they had no communication. The woman he liked slept in front of him. He could hear her steady breathing and hold her hand. At present, she would not refuse him or push him away. He really hoped that time could stop at this moment. In this way, he could just keep looking at her sleeping face.
He bent over and fell asleep on Gu Yan’s bedside when sleepiness came.
Qi Changfeng felt that something seemed to move in his hand. He woke up slowly, and his eyes met Gu Yan’s. For a while, they faced each other but did not say anything.
Gu Yan withdrew her hand gently, trying to complete this action without showing traces. Qi Changfeng had a panoramic view of that, but he could not do anything at that moment. After she had pulled away her hand completely, he suddenly felt a sense of loss. However, in order to avoid a more awkward atmosphere, he withdrew his hand and scratched his originally uncombed hair.
“You got a fever last night.” He couldn’t help himself and took the initiative in explaining.
“Yes.” Gu Yan nodded gently, and embarrassedly looked at her clothes and then Qi Changfeng. She said, “My clothes...”
“I asked my assistant to help you to change your wet clothes.” He knew her scruples.
“I got it.” She was relieved obviously and nodded gently. She kept silent for a while, and then added, “Thank you, um... Changfeng.”
Although she was hesitant about calling his name, he had a little happy in his heart.
“I have to go to the company. Excuse me?” Although this was not what Qi Changfeng thought in heart, he knew that Gu Yan wanted him to leave. He did not want to leave at all.
“Well, sure.” Gu Yan had no objection.
The result met his expectations. She did not urge him to stay, which made him a little bit disappointed.
He turned and said to Gu Yan who followed him for sending him away, “Don’t open the dessert shop today if you do not feel well.”
Gu Yan froze for a moment, then nodded, and said, “Okay, I will.”
“Remember to take medicine.” Qi Changfeng never thought that he would nag her like that.
“I will.” Gu Yan nodded again.
“I’m leaving.”
“Goodbye.”
He could not find anything to say, so he had to leave. Gu Yan watched him go downstairs. Then she turned back into the room and had a long sigh. “I’m sorry.” Gu Yan murmured against the door.
When Manla came, she saw that Gu Yan sat in a daze by the window.
Manla rubbed her head, thinking that could she only keep one position.
Manla didn’t greet her, walked directly behind her and tapped her on the shoulder suddenly.
“What are you thinking?”
Gu Yan turned her head, saw Manla, and smiled gently.
“Are you going to come back to City A?”
“Yes.” Manla sat down and didn’t give up that question. “What are you thinking?” She asked.
“Xiangyan’s birthday is coming.” Gu Yan got up and poured a glass of mango milk tea for Manla as usual.
“Yes.” Manla nodded and said, “Mo Yichen is going to hold a birthday party for Xiangyan. I heard that many business celebrities are invited. It’s a big party.”
“Sure. That is Mo’s family.” Gu Yan stopped moving her hands for a moment. Although she pretended to have a light and breezy tone, inside, she was a maelstrom of churning emotions. She thought that perhaps she could see Xiangyan in the distance at the party.
“What? Will you come to the party?” Manla knew Gu Yan’s thoughts best.
Gu Yan shook her head gently. Even if she planned to go there, she wouldn’t tell anyone, including Manla.
“I know you don’t want to come back to City A. I can understand your feelings.” Manla took the mango milk tea from Gu Yan and took a gulp. She still asked for confirmation, “Are you sure?”
“Yes.” Gu Yan hesitated for a while and then continued, “But I still want to send Xiangyan a birthday gift.”
“I think that’s cool.” Manla agreed.
“However, I wonder what birthday present I should buy for him. He won’t lack anything at Mo’s family.” Gu Yan said with depression. That was right. Xiangyan didn’t lack anything. Mo Yichen would try his best to satisfy him.
