Xia Qingning opened her eyes dazedly at Lu Jingzhe's scolding, and felt extremely hot. Her hands and feet felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead. She wanted to speak, but her throat was so uncomfortable that she couldn't make a sound.

She was already delirious from the fever, and only felt that the person next to her was cool, and she felt particularly comfortable when he was close to her.

"Hmm..." She groaned, a little breathless, and hummed:

"I feel terrible……"

After saying that, she started to climb onto him.

The ambiguous voices, the wild words, the wanton actions, no matter how slow Lu Jingzhe's reaction was, he understood the discomfort in her words.

This woman is so shameless, she wants to use the same old trick again! I really shouldn't have trusted her!

Lu Jingzhe could no longer bear it, so he stood up from the bed, turned on the light, and pulled off the quilt from Xia Qingning. He tried his best to resist the urge to throw her off the bed, and shouted:

"go out."

Xia Qingning had lost all her strength and lay there limply.

Seeing that she didn't move, Lu Jingzhe had lost his patience and didn't indulge him. He raised his hand to pull her. When his hand touched her skin, he realized that something was wrong. Why was she so hot?

After he came to his senses, he touched her forehead with his hand and found that she had a high fever.

"Xia Qingning." He tried to wake her up, but the person on the bed didn't respond at all. Her face, which was as big as a palm, was red and her eyes were not open. It was obvious that she was delirious due to the fever.

She is weak and it is not a good idea for her to continue to have a fever like this. She has to go to the hospital.

Lu Jingzhe quickly took the coat on the chair and put it on, then took out some money from the cabinet, and took out the clothes that Xia Qingning had sewn that night and put them on her. Then he opened the door, walked over, picked her up, and walked out.

The noise in the room just now had alarmed the other people in the room. Wang Mingfang opened the door with her clothes on and saw Lu Jingzhe holding Xia Qingning coming out. She asked in surprise:

"Oh, what's going on?"

Then Lu Lidong also came out of the room and looked at the unconscious Xia Qingning with a puzzled look:

"What happened to her?"

"She has a fever. I'll take her to the hospital." Lu Jingzhe said calmly, without any worry or tension on his face.

"Do we need to go with you? I think her condition seems to be quite serious." Lu Lidong asked symbolically.

"It's okay. I'll go." Lu Jingzhe said and went out holding Xia Qingning.

"Please help me bring back a message." Wang Mingfang shouted earnestly to Lu Jingzhe's back.

At this time, He Shanshan was also woken up. She yawned and looked at Lu Jingzhe holding Xia Qingning and leaving with an unhappy face. She asked:

"What are they arguing about in the middle of the night?"

"Xia Qingning seems to be sick and is being sent to the hospital now."

He Shanshan rolled her eyes and said, "She is the one who has too many things to do."

In a daze, Xia Qingning felt that someone was holding her and walking forward. The other person's hands were very strong and held her tightly in his arms. Although he was holding someone, he walked very steadily without any bumps or shakes.

Her head rested on his shoulder. Perhaps because of the fever, she only felt that his shoulder was strong and cool, and it was extremely comfortable to touch it.

Because she wanted to feel the coolness, she rubbed her head hard towards him, pushing his clothes aside, until her face was completely pressed against his skin without any hindrance. Only then did she feel satisfied and stopped moving.

The moment their skin touched, Lu Jingzhe's pupils shrank unconsciously, wondering if it was because of the other person's hot body temperature.

Because of her illness, her breathing was rapid and hot, and the hot breath lingered around Lu Jingzhe's neck.

He has always been resistant to skin contact with people, but now he was being leaned against so intimately by a woman, a woman he somewhat disliked, and he couldn't help but frown.

But she was sick after all. No matter how uncomfortable he felt, he couldn't get angry at an unconscious person. After hesitating for a moment, he adjusted his posture, held Xia Qingning with one hand, raised the other hand, pulled his clothes up, and isolated her face from the outside.

The person in his arms couldn't feel the coolness, so he stopped immediately, opened her clothes again, and even raised his hands to hug his neck.

The cool touch made Xia Qingning feel much more comfortable. She opened her hazy eyes and saw Lu Jingzhe's handsome face in front of her.

From her perspective, she could see that his jawline was clean and sharp, and his neck was long and strong. Because he was holding someone, his body was forced to exert force, and the muscles in his neck were tense.

She couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream, and asked in a low, hoarse voice:

"Lu Jinze?"

When Lu Jingzhe saw her wake up, he thought she was calling him, but she didn't respond. Just when he was about to tell her to stop rubbing against him, he heard her murmur in a low voice:

"Why did I dream about you?"

Seeing that she was still not awake, Lu Jingzhe felt that there was no point in saying more, so he shut up and continued walking with her in his arms.

We arrived at the hospital very quickly.

*

It was already the next day when Xia Qingning woke up. She slowly opened her eyes and saw a glass infusion bottle hanging above her head, with liquid dripping from the thick yellow infusion tube.

After realizing that this was in the hospital, Xia Qingning couldn't help but sigh that this body was so weak!

Fortunately, I chose to cling to Lu Jingzhe. If I had divorced him, with this body, I would have to go back to the countryside to farm and would have either died of exhaustion or starved to death.

After sighing, he turned around and saw Lu Jingzhe sitting on the head of the bed. Maybe he was too tired, he had fallen asleep on the chair, his head slightly tilted back, his eyelashes drooping, his nose high, and his breathing even.

Because he was asleep, the cold and aloof feeling on his body faded a lot. Xia Qingning looked at him closely and sighed unconsciously:

This man is so handsome!

It is said that a buzz cut is the most challenging for appearance, but his face can handle it perfectly. Without the modification of hairstyle, his contours are more clear and his facial features are more superior. Such a face is top-notch no matter what era it is in.

Perhaps it was because of his military acumen, but Lu Jingzhe woke up quickly when Xia Qingning was watching him, and as soon as he opened his eyes he met her staring gaze.

Their eyes met. Xia Qingning was caught peeking, and she quickly looked away guiltily. Just as she was about to pretend to be asleep, she heard the man ask in a low voice:

"woke up."

"Yeah." Seeing that she could no longer pretend, Xia Qingning could only reply softly.

"Are you hungry?" Lu Jingzhe asked, without any intention of exposing her.

As soon as he reminded her, Xia Qingning suddenly felt hungry and nodded:

"hungry."

"I'll get you something to eat." After saying that, Lu Jingzhe stood up and walked out of the ward.

As he walked to the door, a female doctor came forward. He stepped aside. The female doctor walked in and looked at him for a moment. Suddenly, her eyes froze. She was surprised at first, then she was so happy that she couldn't hide it. She called out his name:

"Lu Jingzhe"
