"I don't want to eat anymore, and I don't want to move. Qin Che, please stay with me and sleep a little longer," you said pitifully.

"Your stomach will feel uncomfortable if you don't eat soon. Here, have some water first." He placed the cup in his hand on the bedside table and reached out to help you sit up.

You played two intense games yesterday, and with the Chinese medicine and cold water soaks, your body really can't take it anymore.

"I'm not strong enough, Qin Che, carry me."

Qin Che leaned down, and you hooked your arms around his neck; he wrapped his arms around your waist.

He did almost all the work; you just sat up with his help.

He held the glass of water to your lips, and the warm water soothed your throat instantly.

"Qin Che," you call softly.

"Ok?"

What brings you to Jinyuan City?

"I came to discuss business and happened to drop by to see you."

"Didn't you come to see me and then casually discuss business?" You chuckled softly, not wanting to expose him.

"You could say that." Qin Che put down his water glass and sat down on one side of the bed.

His large hand covered yours, gently caressing the skin on the back of your hand.

"About yesterday..." You turned your head slightly to look at Qin Che beside you.

"You don't need to apologize to me. I know your situation at the time, and you did the right thing."

Qin Che lowered his eyes and did not look at you.

You could tell he seemed upset when he brought up yesterday, so you reached out and pinched his cheek.

"I thought you would scold me and forbid me from taking on such dangerous missions in the future."

"I won't make you give up your job because of me; it's part of your life too." He finally turned to look at you. "However, if there are any more dangerous missions like this in the future, could our dedicated hunter lady reluctantly bring me along as a fairly capable helper?"

"Okay, I'll definitely bring it next time, don't be angry." You cupped his face and leaned in to nuzzle him.

"You have no idea, everyone I saw yesterday looked like you. It was terrifying, not funny at all." You still felt lingering fear when you mentioned what happened yesterday.

"Yes, I know that kind of drug. It amplifies the desires in people's hearts and is extremely dangerous." Qin Che held your hand, cradling it in his palm as if it were a precious treasure.

"Thankfully, this mission was successfully completed. Otherwise, if this thing had leaked out, the thought of it would have been terrifying." You leaned against him, feeling incredibly at ease.

"Qin Che."

"Ok?"

"Don't you think I'm a hassle?"

"will not."

"I feel embarrassed that you always take care of me."

"you will not."

"what?"

"You're incredibly thick-skinned; there's nothing to be embarrassed about at this level."

You want to punch him, but you don't have the strength.

Forget it, I'll save it for now and deal with him when I recover.

The doctor arrived shortly afterward.

The doctor first drew some blood, and then a bunch of messy high-end instruments were used.

Finally, after a thorough examination, the doctor diagnosed him with a cold.

The doctor gave you a fever-reducing injection, left some medication for your symptoms, and then left.

Qin Che held your hand and felt it was still terribly hot, so he took your temperature again.

"The fever-reducing injection hasn't worked yet; the temperature is already 40 degrees Celsius."

Your body is very hot and your limbs are weak, but your spirits are still good. Seeing Qin Che's furrowed brows, you want to say something to ease the atmosphere.

"Qin Che, how about trying me at 40 degrees Celsius...?"
