Chapter 22
After finishing the gang affairs,
Bai Chengze returned home. It was already midnight.
There were two missed calls on the phone screen, both from Yang Qiaoan.
Bai Chengze called back.
On the other end of the phone, Qiao An's breath was weak,"Hello, Mr. Chengze..."
Her tone was like a spider's thread, weak and lifeless.
"I just saw the phone, what's going on?"Bai Chengze frowned
"My body feels so hot, maybe I have a fever," Yang Qiao'an said,"Can you get me some medicine downstairs.
Bai Chengze looked at the time and said,"At this time, all pharmacies are closed."
Then, he stood up and rummaged around the room,"I just have some at home. I'll send them to you.""
After hanging up the phone, Bai Chengze pushed out the door and came to the door next door.
After waiting for a while, he heard a slow footsteps coming from the room.
The door opened, and Yang Qiaoan stood holding the door frame. Behind her, she covered her head with one hand.
Her whole body was slightly pink because of the heat, and she looked very pitiful.
"I'm so embarrassed to trouble you so late..." Qiao An took the medicine from Bai Chengze's hand,"I'll pay you another day."
"Why be so polite."
Bai Chengze reached out a hand and touched Qiao An's forehead. It was hot.
Qiao An was startled by this sudden movement and dodged slightly.
"You have a severe fever. Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"Bai Chengze said worriedly
"I don't really like the atmosphere of the hospital, and being hospitalized is very troublesome." Yang Qiao'an shook his head,"I can take care of myself, and I'll be fine if I take some medicine."
As she spoke, she muttered to herself,"I must have caught a cold in the elevator that day. I have been feeling a little uncomfortable since yesterday..."
Hearing this, Bai Chengze felt a little guilty.
"You go back and rest, Mr. Chengze, it doesn't matter to me."
As he spoke, Yang Qiaoan held two boxes of medicine and gently closed the door.
Bai Chengze was a little worried and stood outside for a while.
Within a few seconds, he heard a"pop" sound coming from the room. Dull movement, like someone falling
"Are you okay, Miss Joan?"Bai Chengze patted the door gently.
There was silence inside the door, and there was no response.
After a few more shouts through the door, Bai Chengze was convinced that something had happened to Qiao An inside.
He put both hands on the doorknob, The veins in his arms popped out, and with a little force, he pulled out the entire door lock.
As he pushed open the innocent door, Bai Chengze saw Qiao An lying on the floor of the living room, muttering softly, unable to hear. What was Qing talking about?
Bai Chengze lifted her upper body and held her in his arms.
Qiao An opened and closed his eyes, but couldn't make a sound.
"I'll take you to the hospital."Bai Chengze looked serious.
"No..." Yang Qiao'an shook her head with difficulty. She gently grabbed one of Bai Chengze's arms,"Mr. Chengze, just help me back to the bed..."
Unable to resist, Bai Chengze had no choice but to nod.
She held Yang Qiao'an in her arms. , stood up, kicked open the half-open door, and gently placed her on the side of the bed.
Then, Bai Chengze tidied her messy clothes, and took off her two slippers. He pulled the flannel quilt neatly and covered Qiao An's body.
He went to the living room, took a glass of warm water, and tested the temperature.
He returned to the bedroom with two fever-reducing pills in his hands. Qiao An gently filled the pills into her pink and tender mouth, then held her head up and slowly poured warm water into her mouth.
Yang Qiao An seemed to be very hungry, with her eyes closed and her mouth moving greedily. He swallowed the water in the cup and drank a whole cup of water in his stomach.
Bai Chengze held her chin and wiped Qiao An's mouth carefully with his thumb.
Qiao An sucked it while half asleep. Half of his fingers were wrapped in his mouth.
Bai Chengze slowly took out his fingers, gently placed Yang Qiaoan's head on the pillow, and smoothed the messy hair on her forehead,"Do you want me to get you another drink?""
Seeing that Qiao An didn't reply, he held up the water glass and was about to leave for the living room.
At this moment, Yang Qiao An stretched out his hot hands from under the quilt and gently held one of Bai Chengze's fingers,"Mr. Chengze…"
"Um?"Bai Chengze turned around, put down the water glass, and slowly sat down by the bed.
"You came to take care of me so late," Yang Qiao paused,"She won't be angry, right?"
"ah?"
Bai Chengze thought for a moment, and then realized who"she" Qiao An was talking about.
He felt a little embarrassed and shook his head gently,"It's not what you think."
"How is that..." Yang Qiaoan kept asking.
"She is one of my students and occasionally comes to my home for classes."Bai Chengze replied seriously.
"You guys are making so much noise in class," Yang Qiao'an turned his head,"It's so noisy that I can't sleep."
"Some actions are like this,"Bai Chengze is a dead horse and a living horse doctor," it is inevitable that there will be some movement."
"She must be... very happy to have such a caring teacher like you, right?"
Yang Qiaoan looked at Bai Chengze with affection.
Bai Chengze didn't know how to answer,"I think it's like this"
"That's great..." Yang Qiaoan turned his face away,"Mr. Chengze must be a very good teacher."
"……"Bai Chengze looked at the sinister Qiao An and fell silent for a while.
However, Yang Qiaoan didn't seem to want to let him go.
She grabbed the corner of her clothes with her hands, feeling a little embarrassed and said,"Mr. Chengze…"
"Um?"Bai Chengze nodded.
"I sweat a lot," Yang Qiaoan wiped his forehead,"My pajamas seem to be wet with sweat."
After a slight pause, Qiao An seemed to be making a lot of determination.
Finally, she looked at Bai Chengze and opened her red lips lightly:
"So, could you please help me get some dry clothes?……"
