PopularNovelChapter 28: Chapter 26 Taking Care of the Girl for a Night
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“How can you—"
The reproach stopped abruptly mid-sentence.
Qipei looked at Qiao Jing nestled in his arms, her face flushed, breathing weak and labored, the extent of her
frailty tugging at his heartstrings indescribably.
At this moment, Qiao Jing was in a semi-conscious state, her mouth slightly agape, warm breath spraying out
with each exhale.
Qipei carried Qiao Jing into the room, laid her gently on the bed, and reached out to touch her forehead.
So hot!
She must have caught a fever from getting drenched in the rain earlier that day.
After covering Qiao Jing with a blanket, Qipei ran outside with an umbrella to buy medicine.
When Qipei returned, Qiao Jing’s temperature had risen even higher.
“Tfor medicine.” Qipei brought over swater, but Qiao Jing showed no sign of waking up.
“Qiao Jing, take your medicine,” Qipei called out again.
Qiao Jing slowly opened her eyes, squinting, her consciousness fully consumed by the fever, instinctually
responding to her nbeing called.
Qipei’s gaze fixed on Qiao Jing, her eyes unfocused and without a direct stare, guessing she was in a daze.
With no other choice, Qipei set the hot water and medicine on the bedside table, sat at the edge of the bed,
propped Qiao Jing up against himself, and then brought the medicine to her lips.
“Tfor medicine.”

Upon hearing the command, Qiao Jing instinctively opened her mouth and moved closer to the palm of the man.
The moment her lips touched his palm, Qipei felt as though an electric current had shot through him, causing his
normally stoic face to betray a sense of bewilderment and confusion...
It was the slast twhen Qiao Jing had unintentionally kissed him; not only did he not dislike it, but he
quite enjoyed it.
Had he taken the wrong medicine? Why was he experiencing such a subtle sensation from Qiao Jing’s touch?
After all, this feeling he had only felt towards one person before, the girl who had performed surgery on him.
The reason he couldn't forget about that girl was because her touch had sparked something unique in him,
making him irresistibly infatuated.
As these thoughts swirled in his head, Qipei’s gaze suddenly landed on Qiao Jing’s palm-sized face, and once
again, the speculation that frequented his mind arose.
It was very possible that Qiao Jing was the girl who had saved him...
Amidst the complex feelings in Qipei’s heart, the girl wrapped in the blankets shrank further inside.
Was she still cold?
Qipei reached out and pulled the blanket up around Qiao Jing’s neck.
“Hmm...” When Qiao Jing felt the chill from the man’s hand, she let out an involuntary moan.
Qipei first paused, then withdrew his hand.
But no sooner had his hand left Qiao Jing’s face than she suddenly grabbed it.
Using his hand as an ice bag, Qiao Jing pressed it against her face for a “cold compress,” feeling much more
comfortable.
Qipei sat by the bed just like that, letting Qiao Jing hold his hand, his half-lowered eyes filled with complex
thoughts.
After a good half hour had passed, Qipei, still in his original pose, felt numbness in half of his body. He moved his
arm, trying to pull it from Qiao Jing’s grasp.
He managed to free his hand, but the next second, Qiao Jing, with her eyes still closed, furrowed her brow in
displeasure, suddenly pulling on Qipei’s arm and dragging him onto the bed.
Comparatively cooler than her feverish body, she instinctively hugged him.
It felt very cool, very comfortable.
Instantly, Qipei's face darkened. If

Despite that, he had to get up.
“Mom...” The murmured sound of her dream talk, carrying an undisguised sadness, poured out of Qiao Jing’s
mouth.

This sight gripped Qipei’s heart painfully, compelling him to lift his hand and gently wipe away the tear from her
face.
Never mind, let her hug him for a while...
She was quite pitiful, after all.
The night passed, and the weather cleared after the rain.
As dawn began to break, Qiao Jing awoke.
The moment she woke up, she saw Qipei lying beside her and reflexively kicked out.
