When they met again, the boss' eyes turned red, kissed her and said sweet words to her

The next day.

After a good sleep, Lin Sitian’s fever did not return, but she still felt dizzy and weak.

Before calling Baldy to ask for leave, she held her breath. After Baldy answered the phone, she felt as if she couldn't breathe and was about to die in the next second.

"Boss, I'm sick... cough cough... I'm sick and want to take a leave. Otherwise, it would be bad if I infect other colleagues, especially you..."

Even so, Baldy only allowed her to take one day off.

As soon as Lin Sitian hung up the phone, she started to rant: "Don't you think he's disgusting? When it comes to salary increases, he says the cake shop doesn't need anyone else. If the salary is too low, I'll leave. When I ask for leave, it's like the cake shop can't survive without me for a single day and will go bankrupt..."

"Ahhh, Hou Yi is so good at shooting down the sun, why doesn't he come and shoot down my workday!"

"Bao'er, we're both bosses. How come the difference between Baldy and you is bigger than the difference between a human and a sow?"

Xu Nanyin looked at her rolling around on the bed with amusement and said, "Stop rolling around. You'll have breakfast and medicine later."

The knock on the door happened to sound.

Special Assistant Huang appeared at the door, holding a food box in his hand: "Ms. Xu, this is the breakfast that President Pei asked me to deliver."

"No, I was just about to go get it myself."

"Mr. Pei said you must be very tired last night and told you to have a good rest today." Huang Liu coughed and his voice became softer.

Xu Nanyin always felt that he had misunderstood something. She was a little speechless and didn't know how to explain. Huang Liu took the opportunity to put the lunch box at the door and left.

When I opened the lunch box, there were two bowls of cod porridge and a few side dishes, with a refreshing aroma.

Lin Sitian wrapped herself in a small blanket and walked out of the bedroom while sniffing, "It smells so good!" Then she picked up a bowl of cod porridge and drank it happily.

"Did you just see who sent it?" Xu Nanyin coughed.

"Didn't you see? Wasn't that the takeaway you ordered? It couldn't be the takeaway delivered by that damn scumbag, right? Even dogs wouldn't eat that scumbag's food!"

"..."

Xu Nanyin watched her eat the porridge in big mouthfuls, and hid the overly exquisite food box behind her with a guilty conscience.

Lin Sitian rested comfortably at her place for a day and felt almost recovered, so she went to work the next day.

Xu Nanyin thought that caring for the patient was over, but unexpectedly...

One day later.

Just as she was about to rest in the evening, there was a knock on the door.

Pei Jingmo was leaning against the door in a black silk robe, his cold and pale face flushed red, and his beautiful fox eyes were blurred as he looked at her.

"you……"

As soon as Xu Nanyin opened her mouth, his upper body pressed down heavily and leaned on her shoulder.

"Good boy~" His voice was hoarse: "I have a fever."

The weight on her shoulders was too heavy. Xu Nanyin was about to push him away when she heard him say, "Your best friend infected me. You are responsible."

"?"

Xu Nanyin was a little speechless, "I took care of Sisi for a whole day and night without getting infected."

"It means you are stronger than me, and it means I am unlucky."

"..."

The heat from his nose spread across Xu Nanyin's neck. She touched his forehead, and it was indeed very hot. She couldn't help but think of that night in the hospital when there were so many patients. He gave her both masks he had requested... Maybe he had been infected then?

She helped him sit on the sofa in the living room, handed him the thermometer, and said, "Take your temperature first."

"My hands are weak, cough cough..." Pei Jingmo coughed weakly a few times.

Xu Nanyin had no choice but to sit next to him, holding the thermometer in her hand and inserting it into the deep V collar of his nightgown. She felt a subtle burning sensation on his skin under her fingertips. She put the thermometer away and quickly withdrew her hand.

The next second, he leaned over and buried his head in her chest.

She froze for a moment, then reached out and pushed his shoulder, "Get out of the way!"

"Just for a moment..." Pei Jingmo didn't move, his voice muffled from her chest: "I'm like this, how can I have any dirty thoughts?"

Who knows! She knows what kind of person he is!

She grabbed his right ear and said, "If you don't open it, I'll twist your ear off."

"Twist it. Twist the other one too, otherwise it won't be symmetrical." Pei Jingmo wrapped his arm around her waist and buried his head deeper. "Remember to stop the bleeding in time. It doesn't matter if I die, but I don't want you to go to jail."

Xu Nanyin: "...Don't speak so highly of yourself."

"Xu Nanyin, I am the best person in the world to you." His voice was low and hoarse.

Xu Nanyin was stunned, staring blankly at the black hair on his chest. She once really thought that he loved her to the core...

It was almost time, so she took out the thermometer for him and looked at it. He had a high fever of 39.1 degrees.

At this level, taking an ibuprofen should be able to reduce the fever. She finally pushed his head away and went to get the antipyretic medicine for him.

"Take the medicine and go back to your room to sleep."

Pei Jingmo was surprisingly cooperative. He drank some water, swallowed the medicine in one gulp, then stood up and walked towards the door.

Xu Nanyin went to the kitchen with a cup of water. She heard the door close with a "bang" and felt vaguely strange. It seemed that it didn't come from the front door...

She came out of the kitchen and opened the bedroom door.

On the beige bear-shaped blanket she had just changed, the man was lying on it with his arms and legs spread out, his face buried in the bear's belly.

She took a deep breath, walked to the bed and pulled his arm, "Wake up~"

Pei Jingmo leaned sideways and half-opened his eyes to look at her. "What's wrong? Why did you follow me into my room?"

“…This is obviously my room!”

The confused, bewildered expression on his face was too realistic, but Xu Nanyin didn't believe him at all, "Pei Jingmo, stop acting..."

The next second, her wrist tightened and she was pulled down on top of him.

"Shh..." He suddenly put his forehead close to her ear, "Listen."

"?" Xu Nanyin felt puzzled.

"There's water boiling in my head, gurgling."

"Then why don't you pour some tea leaves in there? Make some Longjing tea."

Pei Jingmo turned his face away and coughed several times, his voice sounding weak and powerless: "I got sick because water got into my brain, but not tea leaves."

He closed his eyes, his face pressed against hers, feeling a little hot. Xu Nanyin tried to prop herself up and get up, but he held her waist tightly with both hands.

"hug."

His voice was hoarse and he said coquettishly, "I'm also afraid of being taken to the Flaming Mountain."

Xu Nanyin was both angry and amused, and became more and more certain that he had entered her bedroom on purpose. She was about to pry his hands open with force.

"Yinyin, I feel uncomfortable..." He breathed heavily, sweat seeped from his forehead and nose, and he frowned in discomfort.

She was stunned for a moment, but finally didn't push him away. She let him hold her until he was completely asleep. Then she went to sleep on the sofa in the living room, but she didn't sleep well. She usually didn't get up at night, but she woke up twice that night. She tiptoed to the bedroom to make sure he didn't have a high fever before going back to sleep.

After waking up in the morning, Xu Nanyin went to the bedroom again. Pei Jingmo was still asleep. She touched his forehead and found it was no longer hot, so she washed up and went out.

As soon as she arrived at Jinyifang, she received a text message from him: [Where are you? ]

He must have just woken up, she replied: [Go to work]

Pei Jingmo: [You have no conscience! I'm already sick, and you just leave me alone at home like this]

Xu Nanyin: [I just have a conscience, otherwise I would have thrown you under the bed]

Jinyifang's business has been booming these days. Xu Nanyin spent the entire morning dealing with accounts and reviewing orders.

I was busy until noon, and when I picked up my phone, I saw several text messages from Pei Jingmo: [Fainted from hunger]

[I have a fever again, 39.3 degrees]

Xu Nanyin hurried out of Jinyifang and hailed a taxi.

apartment.

Pei Jingmo lay comfortably on the sofa with his legs crossed, stirring a bowl of cod porridge in his hand and drinking it slowly.

Huang Liu stood by, rubbing the bottom of the mercury thermometer with his fat hands until sweat broke out on his forehead. Finally, he rubbed the number to 39.3 degrees.

"Mr. Pei, it's done."

Pei Jingmo put down the cod porridge, took the thermometer, looked at it, and curled his lips: "Okay."

Then he picked up the document on the coffee table, read it quickly, pointed out the problems sharply, picked up the pen, and signed his name in a flamboyant manner.

Although he coughed occasionally, he was full of energy and didn't look like a sick person at all.

After reviewing a thick stack of documents, he was about to tell Huang Liu to leave when suddenly... he heard someone entering a password outside the door.

When Xu Nanyin opened the door, she saw Pei Jingmo lying on the sofa with a weak look on his face and sleeping.

She tiptoed over and just as she was about to put her hand on his forehead, he opened his eyes, half asleep and half awake: "Grandma, are you here to see me? Or am I here to see you? Am I dead?"

Are you really hungry and fainting?

Xu Nanyin glanced at the number on the thermometer next to her and saw that he had a high fever. She felt a little guilty. She had thought he was fine.

She immediately went to pour a cup of hot water, sat on the sofa and helped him up, "Drink some water first."

"Xu Nanyin..."

Pei Jingmo seemed to recognize her then. He leaned against her with a weak look on his face, his thin lips trembling slightly.

Xu Nanyin's voice softened unconsciously: "Didn't you eat anything? Why didn't you ask Assistant Huang to bring you food?"

"Yes. He had a car accident on the road, a pileup."

On the balcony, he squatted in the corner with his arms folded, looking at Huang, who looked like a gas tank, with his mouth twitching: He is really a screw-up! Don't be too outrageous!
