"I brought it here."
Just as Dongfang Ye was thinking about something with his feverish brain, Bai Xuelan knocked on the door with some concerns.
She seemed to be worried that Dongfang Ye had not put on his clothes yet, so she did not enter immediately.
It was only then that Dongfang Ye remembered that he had taken off his clothes to take his temperature.
But…
"I forgot to measure it."
"I should have said that I had to measure it before I left, right?”
"Sorry, I was distracted."
Dongfang Ye apologized honestly and tucked the thermometer under his armpit. It did not take long before he heard a muffled electronic sound.
He picked up the thermometer and saw that the screen showed 38.3 degrees Celsius. Although it was not enough to go to the hospital, this temperature was still quite high.
Dongfang Ye tidied up his clothes and said to Bai Xuelan, who was standing outside the door,"
"I'm done measuring. Please come in."
After hearing this, Bai Xuelan carefully entered with a tray of porridge.
She looked so relieved because Dongfang Ye had already tidied up his clothes.
"What's the temperature?" asked Bai Xuelan.
"38.3. You'll be fine after taking some medicine and sleeping.”
"Medicine is 30% poisonous. Medicine can only target the symptoms but not the virus itself. Only by resting well and activating the body's immunity can the virus be eliminated. However, with your physical fitness,"
As she spoke, Bai Xuelan's face turned slightly red.
Dongfang Ye did not understand why she was blushing.
Even though he was reprimanded by her, Dongfang Ye knew that she was worried about him, so he did not retort and nodded.
His physical fitness was indeed not bad. He was involved in all kinds of sports and had a lot to show for it.
Bai Xuelan took a deep breath and said,""Eat it while it's hot."
She placed the pot and tray on the bedside table and opened the lid.
There was porridge with dried plums in the pot. The porridge water was relatively diluted, about one portion of rice and seven portions of water.
This was considering the burden of food on the stomach. He was really meticulous.
There were dried plums in it to enhance the taste of the porridge and also because it was better for people who had a cold.
There was no steam coming out of the pot, but a warm smell came from it.
This feeling indicated that this pot of porridge wasn't made on the spot. It was made first and then deliberately cooled down.
Although he had already sighed, Dongfang Ye still sighed in his heart. He was really too meticulous.
Bai Xuelan ignored Dongfang Ye, who was staring at the porridge, and quickly scooped the porridge into a bowl.
The dried plums were scattered in the porridge. The seeds inside had been carefully picked out. The red flesh was lightly mixed into the white porridge water, making one's appetite increase.
"Drink it. It shouldn't be hot anymore."
"Yes, thank you."
Dongfang Ye took the porridge and stared at it with the spoon in his hand. He did not eat it.
Bai Xuelan felt depressed when she saw his actions and said,"
"What are you doing? If you want me to feed you, I will never agree to this kind of service.”
"I wouldn't say that. I'm just surprised that you know how to cook. Yes, she's very good at cooking."
"If you live alone, you must know how to cook. Isn't that a given?”
Bai Xuelan said this with an innocent expression, which made Dongfang Ye's heart ache.
"Probably, yes."
Dongfang Ye mumbled and scooped a spoonful of porridge into his mouth.
The sticky porridge taste on his tongue, as expected, fully reflected the original taste of the rice.
There was very little salt, but the crushed dried plums and the gentle sourness and saltiness were very tasty, forming a wonderful balance.
Dongfang Ye did not actually like to eat salted dried plums, but he especially liked the mild sour taste with a hint of sweetness.
If he was healthy, he really wanted to pour these dried plums on rice and eat them.
"Delicious."
"Thank you for the compliment. However, it was just porridge. It was almost the same for anyone.”
Bai Xuelan replied as if nothing had happened, but the corners of her mouth still curled up playfully.
This smile was different from the one he had when he was in school. This smile was not the standard smile for outsiders, but a reassuring smile.
This smile was very beautiful and made Dongfang Ye subconsciously stare at her.
Bai Xuelan, who noticed his gaze, instantly returned to her original state-a beautiful piece of art.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Ah, I was distracted. Sorry."
The gentle smile only lasted for a moment before disappearing, which made Dongfang Ye feel a little regretful.
Although he thought so, he didn't say it out loud. He just scooped the porridge mouthful by mouthful and tasted the rare delicacy.
After the meal, Bai Xuelan diligently brought over a new bottle of sports drink, a basin for pouring hot water, a towel, a spare cold compress, and so on.
She placed these things on the bedside table and said,
"In short, you should rest and recuperate today. Please remember to replenish your water and take good care of yourself. Also, if you want to wipe your sweat, use this. The water in the basin is already prepared. Just put a towel in and wring it dry before wiping."
Dongfang Ye was speechless.
The first half of Bai Xuelan's speech was like a mother instructing her five-year-old child. She even taught him how to twist a towel.
Was he treating her like a child who had no ability to stand on her own feet?
Perhaps it was the impression that the messy environment had left on her that Dongfang Ye did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Then, I'll leave first. Take care of yourself.”
"Okay, goodbye."
No matter what, as a young girl, it was really inappropriate for Bai Xuelan to stay in the house of a man she had only met once. Dongfang Ye would also feel uncomfortable, so he accepted the other party's actions.
Under Dongfang Ye's watchful gaze, she checked the " decorations " around her again. After confirming that she had not missed anything, she left the room. Soon, she heard the sound of the door closing.
"This kind of spontaneous sense of justice, kindness, and thoughtful service.”
Dongfang Ye could only sigh.
Although Bai Xuelan was a little vicious, she was very serious and hardworking when she did things.
The corners of Dongfang Ye's lips curled up slightly.
In the future, even if they were even and became passers-by, he would remember her care in his heart.
He reckoned that after he recovered from his cold, he would no longer have anything to do with her. That was because she had only taken care of him once in a while.
To Dongfang Ye, Bai Xuelan was more like an ordinary girl who had a strong personality but was also quite human.
However, in the eyes of others, Bai Xuelan was not only a pure, cute, obedient, and humble beautiful girl, but also an angelic beauty that made people fall in love at first sight.
She had a small stature, a curvaceous figure, and a temperament that was so weak that it aroused the desire to protect her. Coupled with her posture, it was as if she embodied the ideals of a man.
In addition, she was the top student in her grade, an all-rounder in sports, and had good culinary skills. Who knew how much popularity she would gain?
Dongfang Ye had seen others trying to get close to Bai Xuelan and knew that many people were interested in her.
To Bai Xuelan, as long as she was willing, the people who wanted to be her boyfriend could line up in the corridor.
But even so, she had never dated anyone.
Dongfang Ye lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling.
Even though the medicine was effective, his body was still very tired. Once he relaxed, sleepiness would surge up.
He closed his eyes and recalled what had happened today.
Even his best friend, Wei Zheng, would not believe that he was being watched over by a venomous angel.
What kind of lousy light novel plot is this!
Wei Zheng, that bad friend, would definitely put on a sad face and wail," Sob sob sob, why did a cold burn your brain! I'm hallucinating!"
Dongfang Ye smiled.
To him, being taken care of by Bai Xuelan was not something worth showing off.
She believed that Bai Xuelan, who had taken all kinds of risks to take care of Dongfang Ye, would also not want this matter to spread.
Therefore, today was a secret between Dongfang Ye and Bai Xuelan.
Secrets, this word would always make one's heart itch when used between a young man and a young woman.
But tomorrow, they would be strangers.
Dongfang Ye thought as he gradually fell asleep.
