After the divorce, the aloof female CEO was filled with regret.
Chapter 69 Jiang Yuwei has a high fever
I could tell the person outside was in a hurry, so I quickly put down my knife and fork. "Gu Mengmeng, I have something urgent to take care of. Let's talk later."
"Okay." Gu Mengmeng agreed and quickly hung up the phone.
I stood up to open the door and saw Secretary Li, who looked anxious. "Sir, President Jiang has fainted due to a high fever. Please go and see him quickly!"
Has Jiang Yuwei fainted?
I was quite surprised. Just a moment ago she was acting all high and mighty, but I didn't expect her to be at her last gasp. I also remembered when she kissed me, her whole body was burning hot, and her face was exhausted; she was definitely not in good shape.
"If she faints, take her to the hospital. I don't know how to treat illnesses."
Secretary Li said with a bitter face, "Sir, the hospital is closed. Mr. Jiang just has a fever. You can't get an appointment for this kind of illness abroad."
I thought for a moment, "Where's Chen Yiran?"
Secretary Li was taken aback. "Mr. Chen is in the next room."
"Then let him take care of it. He's a doctor, even if he's a surgeon, he must know a thing or two about minor illnesses like fevers."
They definitely know more than I do.
Besides, someone like me, whom Jiang Yuwei wouldn't even look at, is hardly worthy of taking care of a noble young lady like her.
Secretary Li frowned immediately. "That's not a good idea. A man and a woman alone together. If President Jiang wakes up and finds out, she'll be angry."
A thought struck me, and I keenly grasped the key point: "A lone man and a lone woman?"
Didn't Chen Yiran ask Jiang Yuwei to stay? Didn't she agree?
This is not right.
"Yes, after you went back to your room, Ms. Jiang chased away all of Mr. Chen's friends, so now Mr. Chen is alone next door. I just took Ms. Jiang's temperature, and she has a fever of 40 degrees Celsius. She must have felt unwell a long time ago. If she wanted Mr. Chen's help, she should have asked when she was conscious, instead of coming to me."
Secretary Li looked at me anxiously, "Sir, I know there might be some misunderstanding between you and President Jiang, but you can't just ignore President Jiang's life or death..."
40 degrees? That's a really high fever!
Jiang Yuwei rarely has such a high fever. Could it be because I made her take a cold bath at her grandfather's house a couple of days ago?
I raised an eyebrow, and Secretary Li continued.
"Moreover, you care about President Jiang more than anyone else. In the past, whenever President Jiang was unwell, didn't you take care of him personally? Even if President Jiang only felt a little nauseous, you would rush to find medicine. You are especially caring and considerate towards President Jiang..."
Secretary Li looked both anxious and confused. He stared at me with wide eyes, completely bewildered.
I understand his confusion. He must be thinking, "In the past, when Jiang Yuwei was even slightly unwell, I would be as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Now that she is so sick that she has fainted, how can I be so calm, as if I don't care at all?"
I pursed my lips tightly, and scenes from my past and present lives flashed through my mind. Whenever Jiang Yuwei was unwell, I was always the one who got the most anxious and upset.
Jiang Yuwei is a workaholic. Whenever she has a stomachache or feels unwell, she always forces herself to continue working. No one dares to say a word to her except me, who urges her to take her medicine and makes sure she gets some rest.
At first, she would always coldly tell me, "You just need to mind your own business; you don't need to worry about me."
Later, after being married for a while, she started to get impatient: "Ye Qiu, don't you have anything to do? Everyone gets sick, it's not like you're going to die. You make a big fuss over every little thing, and you're always running around me. Aren't you annoyed?"
I remember those days of being a simp very clearly, and I also vividly recall Jiang Yuwei's responses.
My concern has become a constraint for her, and it's really unnecessary.
Besides, I'm not the Ye Qiu who used to revolve around Jiang Yuwei and desperately hoped she would like me anymore.
I gripped the doorknob, looked at Secretary Li, and gave him my advice very seriously: "Secretary Li, she doesn't need me. You should find Chen Yiran; he's much more effective than me. Or you could give her some fever reducers. If that doesn't work, take her to the hospital. France is so big; there's bound to be a hospital emergency room that's still open."
"I have my own things to take care of, so I won't take care of her anymore. If you need anything else, come find me."
Secretary Li looked bewildered and became even more anxious: "But, sir..."
I closed the door before he could finish speaking, leaving him outside.
When I was reborn, I no longer loved Jiang Yuwei, unlike in my previous life when I was full of fantasies and expectations about her. But love had become a habit, and I still couldn't help but take care of her, unable to bear seeing her sick and unattended.
But now, after living again for a while, this habit is slowly disappearing. Like now, knowing she's in so much pain, even fainting from a high fever, I'm just surprised, but I don't even have the urge to go see her…
The next day, I woke up naturally, and when I finished washing up and went out, I immediately saw a handsome man and a beautiful woman standing in the living room of the suite.
Jiang Yuwei sat on the sofa, her face as pale as a sheet, her lips bloodless, revealing a rare weakness. Chen Yiran stood beside her, considerately handing her a cup of hot water and a bowl of steaming pork rib porridge, showing remarkable thoughtfulness.
I stood at the doorway, quietly watching this scene, feeling quite at peace with it. Then, I silently took out my phone, found a good angle, and snapped a picture.
Although Jiang Yuwei has agreed to the divorce, what if she's stingy and unwilling to pay me the divorce settlement? It's always good to have some "evidence," even if it's just fabricated "cheating photos," it'll give me more leverage in negotiations.
Before he could even look at the photos, he heard Secretary Li's weak voice: "Sir, are you up?"
As soon as I finished speaking, several pairs of eyes turned to me. Jiang Yuwei, in particular, stared at me with eyes as cold as ice blades, her face expressionless.
I felt inexplicably uneasy, so I quickly put my phone away, avoiding her gaze, and looked at Secretary Li. I was immediately startled: "What happened to you? You look like a panda, with such heavy dark circles under your eyes?"
Secretary Li, with large dark circles under her eyes and a hint of resentment in her gaze, said, "President Jiang had a fever all night, and I took care of her all night."
Hey, Secretary Li didn't ask Chen Yiran for help and took it all on herself?
I couldn't help but shake my head: "You're working so hard, it makes me look like I'm just being perfunctory at work."
Secretary Li's usually composed face suddenly tightened, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Sir, you are joking. But thankfully, Mr. Chen was there last night. He gave President Jiang an injection to reduce his fever, and President Jiang is only now getting a little better."
Fearing I might misunderstand, Secretary Li quickly added, "Mr. Chen was hungry in the middle of the night and went out to find something to eat, only to discover that Mr. Jiang was acting strangely. He was just acting out of a doctor's compassion..."
I:"……"
I didn't say anything, but he's in such a hurry to explain, making it seem like I'm usually so terrible or so jealous.
Chen Yiran put down his chopsticks and walked towards me, his voice gentle yet tinged with guilt: "Sir, I've been wanting to talk to you privately about what happened last night. I'm sorry, neither Lu Mi nor I should have spoken like that, especially Lu Mi, who twisted the truth last night and made you feel wronged. I apologize to you on his behalf."
"As for those slaps, don't worry, I've already talked to him. He won't call the police or cause you any trouble. I hope you can calm down."
