Chapter 135
This was a startling sight: his face flushed, his breath hot. Her heart skipped a beat, and she tentatively reached out and placed her hand on his forehead. Sure enough, it was burning hot.
Luo Shuiyao frowned, "Are you having a fever?"
Ye Yunzhou felt the coldness on his forehead. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that his throat was extremely dry. In the end, he just said "hmm" softly.
Seeing this, Luo Shuiyao placed her hand on his wrist, quietly feeling his pulse. After a moment, her brows furrowed. This was clearly a fever caused by a cold. Now the high fever persisted, and it looked like it would last for quite some time.
Luo Shuiyao became more and more worried, and her eyes were full of concern. If the cold and fever are not treated in time, it may cause more serious symptoms.
"You sit here for a while, I'll ask the servants to call a doctor for you." After saying this, Luo Shuiyao turned around and was about to call someone, but just as she took a step, she felt her wrist tighten.
Ye Yunzhou grabbed her wrist and pulled hard. Caught off guard, she took a few steps back and fell on Ye Yunzhou's legs.
Luo Shuiyao looked confused for a moment.
She stiffly turned her head to look at Ye Yunzhou who was holding her, and reached out to push him. "Brother, what are you doing?"
Ye Yunzhou's eyes were hot and bloodshot. "Didn't I tell you to call me Brother Yuan Zheng?"
Luo Shuiyao was speechless. Why was he still pursuing this at this time?
"Okay, Brother Yuan Zheng, please let me go."
Ye Yunzhou still held her tightly, with no intention of letting go. His head rested on Luo Shuiyao's shoulder, his breathing hot and rapid. "Yao'er, I don't want to let you go."
His voice was low and hoarse, filled with deep nostalgia.
Luo Shuiyao's heart trembled. She had never seen Ye Yunzhou like this before. What's going on? Ye Yunzhou's condition doesn't look right.
The original book didn't say that he looked like this!
As for Ye Yunzhou liking her, she found it even more incredible. Wasn't it a sign of goodwill for the heroine that he gave her a hairpin? If she was being sentimental, that would be embarrassing.
Luo Shuiyao once again tried to persuade Ye Yunzhou to let her go, "Let me go first, I'll go get someone to call a doctor."
Ye Yunzhou shook his head and said, "Don't call a doctor. I'm fine. Just stay with me."
Luo Shuiyao sighed, "It's fine if you want to call a doctor, but can you let me go first? I have to lower your temperature, otherwise you'll go crazy with a fever tomorrow, and your mother will be sad."
There was a hint of helplessness in her tone.
Ye Yunzhou was slightly startled when he heard her words, then slowly let go of her hand, but there was still reluctance in his eyes.
Luo Shuiyao asked him to lie on the couch, but found that he was tall and the couch was too short for him. When he lay on it, his body below the knees was hanging in the air.
But at this moment, Luo Shuiyao was in no mood to care about these things. After he lay down, Luo Shuiyao wanted to unbutton his clothes to let him cool down.
Ye Yunzhou was already somewhat delirious from the fever, but when he sensed someone approaching, he quickly reacted and squeezed Luo Shuiyao's wrist, "Don't touch me."
Luo Shuiyao's hand, held by him, froze slightly. Suppressing the inexplicable anger that welled up in her heart, she tried to speak in a calm tone: "Okay, I won't touch you, you let me go first."
When Ye Yunzhou heard the familiar voice, he opened his eyes with great effort. After seeing that it was her, he slowly released the hand that was restraining her.
Luo Shuiyao shook her wrist which was slightly painful from his grip, then turned and left the house.
Ye Yunzhou looked at her movements and sighed in annoyance. When he was unconscious, he instinctively kept anyone away from him, but he didn't expect to hurt her.
Luo Shuiyao left the house and exhaled. The night breeze blew away the heat from her body and calmed her down a bit.
She didn't expect Ye Yunzhou to be so wary of her, she just wanted to cool him down.
But then she thought again, forget it, Ye Yunzhou in the original novel has such a personality. The fact that he hugged her so suddenly just now must be because he was confused due to the fever. Why should she bother with a patient?
After a while, Luo Shuiyao came in with a basin of ice water. Compared to before, her face was a little colder, and she didn't talk to Ye Yunzhou like before.
She placed water beside the couch, then soaked the cloth in it, wrung it dry, and gently placed it on Ye Yunzhou's forehead.
Ye Yunzhou looked at her cold face and felt very uncomfortable. He knew that his behavior just now might have made Luo Shuiyao unhappy, but it was really a subconscious reaction at that time.
He wanted to explain, but didn't know where to start.
After Luo Shuiyao had simply cooled him down, she left him alone. She then rummaged through the cabinets and soon found a white porcelain bottle.
She pulled out the cork, poured out two pills, took some water, and motioned Ye Yunzhou to take it.
This medicine was bought when she made medicine for Madam Hou last time. It is used to dispel cold and heat. This ancient Chinese medicine is too bitter, so she made a few pills for herself.
I didn't expect it would come in handy at this time.
Ye Yunzhou took the pill and swallowed it without hesitation.
Luo Shuiyao was a little surprised. Wasn't this man worried that she would poison him?
Ye Yunzhou seemed to see through her thoughts, and forced a smile, saying weakly: "I believe you."
Luo Shuiyao felt a strange ripple in her heart when she heard him say such ambiguous words. She coughed lightly to hide her emotions. "This medicine can relieve your symptoms. I hope you get better soon. You rest here. Call me if you need anything. I'm going to sleep for a while."
Ye Yunzhou looked at her tired eyes in the candlelight, feeling guilty and nodded. "Go and rest, I'll be leaving soon."
He was indeed exhausted at the moment, but it was not impossible for him to go back to his own yard if he wanted to. However, he had a despicable thought in his heart. He just wanted to stay with her for a while longer. Even if they were not intimate at this moment, they could at least sleep in the same room.
This thought made his heart beat uncontrollably, and a strange and strong emotion spread in his heart. He tried to calm himself down, but found that the emotion was like a tide that was difficult to contain.
After all this trouble, Luo Shuiyao was already too sleepy to open her eyes. She didn't care about Ye Yunzhou's fluctuating mood, and went straight into the inner room and fell asleep.
It wasn't until dawn that Ye Yunzhou finally got up. Feeling his body had improved considerably, he stood at the door of the inner room and looked inside through the beaded curtain.
He saw the woman, dressed in the same dress from last night, reclining on the bed in an extremely domineering position. Just looking at her, he felt a surge of tenderness in his heart, and couldn't help but smile silently. That smile was filled with doting and tenderness, as if the woman before him was the most precious thing in his life.
