EBE Chapter 148 No Strength
Chapter 148 No Strength
Of course, taking medicine is the most important thing at this time.
Gu Wan drank the medicine obediently, but she still had no strength.
"You must be hungry after not eating for so long. Have some candy first. I'll go heat up your food for you?"
Zhao Congyi held her with one hand and spread the other hand in front of her. In the middle of his big palm lay two blue and white candies.
Gu Wan looked up at him with amusement, "Why are you coaxing me like a child?"
Children only want candy after taking medicine.
Zhao Cong looked at her for a moment, then hurriedly looked away and pursed his lips. Gu Wan could only see his lips opening and closing, but could not hear what he said specifically.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing, you're almost done with the candy, shall I go get you some food?"
Perhaps she was sick, because Gu Wan was completely different from her usual reserved self. She was acting like a spoiled brat and pouted:
"Nothing, nothing, why are you treating me so perfunctorily?"
Zhao Cong opened his eyes and laughed angrily!
"Ancestor, look at how I treated you perfunctorily."
Gu Wan straightened her upper body. She was originally sitting close to him, but he suddenly straightened her upper body and knelt in front of him.
A pair of soft, boneless hands were still tightly grasping his collar.
At this moment, Gu Wan was kneeling on the bed with her upper body upright, and Zhao Congyi was sitting, so that the two of them were just level.
But Gu Wan was not satisfied with this appearance, and insisted on pushing Zhao Cong back, forcing him to be shorter than herself so that she could look down at him.
Zhao Congyi was so taken aback by her arrogant look at this moment that he lost his temper at all. He obediently tilted his upper body, with his thighs and upper body forming a 140-degree obtuse angle.
Gu Wan placed her hands on his chest and hadn't noticed the problem yet.
"You call me ancestor? Huh?"
"Hurry up and get up, or you'll fall."
Zhao Congyi reminded him, supporting himself with one hand behind his back and with the other hand loosely wrapped behind his back in a hugging position.
Gu Wan pursed her lips and said, "I, your ancestor, would never fall."
Having said that, she obediently stood up and sat next to him. Zhao Congyi was surprised by her obedience and suddenly felt a little sorry for her.
Seeing her flushed face, he sighed resignedly.
Put a pillow behind her back.
"Just lie down for a while, don't fall asleep yet. I'll be here soon. Eat something and then go to sleep, okay?"
Gu Wan looked up at him with wet eyes, and nodded after a while, "I know, you are really nagging, even more nagging than my parents."
Her parents never talk to her like this because they don't have time.
She suddenly seemed to understand why she couldn't accept Zhao Congyi's marriage. She didn't want to experience the same life as her parents.
Zhao Congyi was choked by her words. The originally affectionate atmosphere was instantly destroyed by the word "mom and dad".
But the culprit seemed to feel nothing at all. He sighed resignedly and walked out of the room.
If Gu Wan looked up at this moment, she would definitely see that his walking posture was different from usual.
The rice was originally reserved for Gu Wan in advance, but the woman was afraid that if she kept it heated for too long, the rice would turn into a paste.
There was still a little fire left, and it was quick to light the fire, so the rice was heated up quickly.
Zhao Congyi brought the meal and poured her a glass of water. "You can eat directly on the bed. It's dark now. You may fall if you get out of bed."
He said as he brought her a towel to hold the lunch box.
After Gu Wan took the meal, she took a stool and placed it at the head of the bed, on which she placed a large cup of water. The cup was the one Gu Wan often used.
"Eat slowly, don't be too anxious, be careful not to choke."
Zhao Congyi took an orange and peeled it, looking up at her from time to time.
"Doctor Zhao, why don't you go to bed?"
Zhao glanced at her from the side, and when he heard her speak so clearly and call him Doctor Zhao, he knew that she should be much better.
"I'll check on you after you finish eating. If you're okay, I'll go to bed."
Gu Wan nodded. She didn't understand much of this, and she couldn't pretend to say no. She could only try to eat faster, otherwise Zhao Congyi would have to wait until very late.
"Go slowly, I'm not in a hurry." After thinking for a while, he added, "You just took the medicine, it will take a while for the effect to take effect."
Gu Wan then slowed down her eating pace. One of them was eating while the other was peeling an orange slowly.
After Gu Wan finished eating, Zhao Congyi naturally took the empty lunch box from her and handed her the orange.
After putting the bowl down, he handed her the water next to it.
Gu Wan was being taken care of so carefully, but for some reason, she felt an indescribable sense of panic in her heart.
Zhao Cong had no expression on his face. He just took the cup of water from her hand, put it on the stool beside him, and went out with the lunch box.
Gu Wan thought he put the lunch box in the kitchen. It was hot now, and if the lunch box was not washed and left in the room, it would definitely smell.
You can put it in the kitchen and wash it tomorrow when it's better.
Gu Wan was thinking while holding the orange in her hand, but when he came in again, she noticed that his hands were wet.
When Zhao Cong saw her looking at her hands, he said casually:
"It just so happened that there was hot water while I was steaming rice, so I washed the bowl."
Gu Wan really wanted to ask if he was so considerate to everyone, but she felt it would be weird to ask like that.
"Why don't you eat oranges?"
Gu Wan came back to her senses and cut the orange in half. "Doctor Zhao, you've worked hard. You eat it too."
Zhao Congyi didn't bother to be polite with her and reached out to take it. Their fingertips inevitably touched, but Zhao Congyi didn't feel anything strange.
Gu Wan, on the other hand, felt her fingertips getting hot and her whole arm shook uncontrollably.
"What's wrong? Are you still cold?"
As he said that, Zhao Congyi was about to stand up and wanted to touch Gu Wan's forehead, but Gu Wan was so frightened that she tilted her head and dodged.
"No, I just got soured."
She was referring to the orange in her mouth.
Zhao glanced at her from the side, not knowing whether he believed her or not.
"You should be fine. Eat the orange, rinse your mouth with some water, and go to bed early."
"Thank you for troubling me tonight, Dr. Zhao."
"It's nothing. I told you, I'm older than you, and you don't know many people here. Just treat me as your brother. If you have any problem, just call me. Got it?"
Gu Wan nodded, and Zhao Congyi smiled, opened the door and went out.
He finished the orange in his hand in no time, took a big gulp of water, and then slowly lay down.
For some reason, all I could hear was the word "brother" that he called me when he left.
Maybe I'm really overthinking it. Let them be brother and sister, even though they feel like green tea lovers.
Gu Wan covered herself with the bed sheet and thought sullenly, completely forgetting that she actually had a quilt, it was just placed in a small space.
