“You’re not having a fever, are you?” Mu Xiaoxiao gasped as she suddenly recalled earlier in the morning when the helpers had poured ice water all over him.
Moreover, she recalled that when he was at her house, he had only worn a t-shirt.
The weather in America had already gotten much colder lately.
Mu Xiaoxiao could not help but worry that he might have come to America to look for her in such a hurry that he had neglected to check the weather conditions here and ended up not wearing extra clothes.
Though he probably wouldn’t get ill over just a little cold wind given that he was so strong, he had after all been splashed with cold water and stood outside for a long time.
He had also been exposed to the sea breeze while outside earlier on the cruise for god knew how long…
With these thoughts in her head, Mu Xiaoxiao grew anxious.
After suffering for so long, even if he was as strong as iron, it was impossible for him to come out of it without getting sick!
“You’re a real dumbass.” Mu Xiaoxiao roasted him to his face.
He was obviously unwell, yet he still pretended that everything was okay, and he had even tried getting handsy with her, wanting to eat her up…
Suddenly, Mu Xiaoxiao realized something.
No wonder!
When he was kissing her earlier, she had felt that his lips were unnaturally hot, unlike the previous times when he had kissed her.
Seeing how sick he was, Mu Xiaoxiao felt uneasy and very worried.
She pushed him up so that he could lay comfortably on the sofa. Then, she quickly looked for her cell phone to call William for help.
Luckily, there were doctors on board.
Though she knew that William would quickly arrive with the doctor, the ten minutes during which she waited felt unbearable.
She sat on the carpet next to the sofa as she stared at Yin Shaojie’s face.
The look of him with knitted brows and cold sweat on his forehead seemed like he was seriously ill.
Mu Xiaoxiao could not help but grumble about him again, saying, “Why didn’t you tell me that you were sick? Are you a three-year-old? Even three-year-olds know to tell somebody when they are ill! You’re a real idiot!”‘
It was usually him who would scold her for being an idiot. Now, she finally had the chance to get back at him, but Mu Xiaoxiao was not even happy about it.
She touched his forehead again. Why did it feel like it was hotter than before?
Mu Xiaoxiao was very anxious as his body temperature felt scarily high.
They say that high fevers over 40 degrees can kill!
The more she thought, the more fearful she became. Feeling restless sitting, she quickly got up and went to the bathroom to prepare a wet towel to wipe away his cold sweat.
Isn’t that how they do it on TV?
Change a wet towel to remove his cold sweat, and he’ll feel much more comfortable.
She simply could not sit and wait for the doctor to come. Thus, she immediately took action when the idea popped into her head.
However, just as she stood up, Yin Shaojie, who was in a feverish daze, reached out his hand and grabbed her.
“No…” he mumbled something.
Mu Xiaoxiao was startled by the heat from his hand, and with both hands, she held his.
“Yin Shaojie, how are you feeling? Are you awake?” she bent down and asked beside his ear.
But he did not reply to her, his hand still gripping onto hers, unwilling to let go.
Mu Xiaoxiao felt helpless and anxious, and she said to him as if she was coaxing a child, “Okay, okay. I won’t be angry with you. I’ll just be getting a towel to wipe your sweat, alright?”
Yin Shaojie still did not let go of her. On the contrary, when he heard that she was going to leave, he instinctively gripped tighter as if he wanted to say that he would never let her go.
Watching him like this, her heart softened.
