Chapter 22: Care

The light in the room was not turned on, and the light in the bathroom shone indistinctly, barely illuminating the person on the bed. Gu Zhiru's face was a little pale, and as soon as Xiaoju's hand touched her skin, she knew something was wrong, it was very hot, and it was still there. sweating.

"Mr. Ye, Madam is not quite right, she seems to be sick."

Ye Linran stood up abruptly, and covered Gu Zhiru's forehead with a cold hand, and saw his brows furrowed tightly: "I have a fever."

"I'll call the doctor, you take good care of her."

Xiaoju nodded obediently.

Ye Linran walked to the window and turned his back to them, Xiaoju touched under the pillow, and then removed Gu Zhiru's make-up and cleaned it as if nothing had happened.

……

When Bai Ziheng came, Xiaoju had already left, only Ye Linran and Gu Zhiru were left in the room, Bai Ziheng put down his things in the dark, looked at the weak person on the bed and looked at Ye Linran speechlessly.

"Are you still a thing, killing people twice in two months, you are very energetic?"

"I told you last time that you are deaf?"

"How dare you ask me to come and see this kind of thing?"

Ye Linran put Yan En in the ashtray, and said flatly: "She caught a cold last night and had a fever."

Uh.

Bai Ziheng's ears felt a little hot, he coughed a few times, and walked up to Gu Zhiru, as if he really caught a cold...

"This. This is simple. I just need to prescribe some medicine for her. I'll have someone bring it to you later."

"I came here to ask you to get him medicine, what are you doing here without even taking medicine." Ye Linran frowned, and said with some displeasure.

"Who knows that your ancestor caught a cold and had a fever. I thought my English ability would still be the same as last time. You asked me to come here." Bai Ziheng couldn't help but give him a blank look.

"Okay, okay, you go and come back quickly, if her fever gets worse, your salary for this month will be soaked."

"..." Bai Ziheng was speechless, and couldn't help cursing secretly: "Damn capitalist."

After Bai Ziheng left, he returned to his original tranquility. Ye Linran looked at Gu Zhiru's peaceful sleeping face, and his expression gradually eased. He went to the bathroom and picked up a clean towel, wet it with cold water and folded it into a square shape. Little Tofu Cube, then walked to her side and gently put the towel on her forehead.

The water in winter is bone-chillingly cold, even if it just wets the towel, it still makes Gu Zhiru struggle a little.

Ye Linran touched her neck, the hot touch made him withdraw his hand, the temperature was frighteningly high, even worse than last time, he pursed his lips, wet a towel again, lightly Gently wiped Gu Zhiru's body.

……

After tossing and tossing for a long time, finally Gu Zhiru's temperature began to drop, Ye Linran packed up the towels, and was afraid that she would be hungry when she got up, so she checked her watch and finally went downstairs to the kitchen.

When Gu Zhiru woke up, it was not yet full light, she only felt sore like being run over by a car, and her throat felt like it was on fire, and she frowned when she swallowed the pain.

"Why are you here?"

Gu Zhiru turned his head to see Xiaoju who was sitting next to her, who was about to fall asleep like a chicken pecking rice.

Seeing that Gu Zhiru woke up, Xiaoju woke up instantly.

"Miss Gu, you finally woke up. I will watch over you all night."

"Did you not sleep all night?"

"Well, Mister has been staying in the study and hasn't come out. I thought you can't be left alone here, so I volunteered to come here." Xiaoju explained directly.

"By the way, miss, are you hungry? There's porridge in the kitchen, I'll get it for you." Xiaoju stood up and ran out without answering whether she agreed or not.

Gu Zhiru looked at her frizzy appearance, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

Gu Zhiru felt that something was touching her since she woke up, but the feeling was not very obvious. She couldn't help but reach out and touch it under the pillow. It was a pink bear, and behind the bear was a post-it note.

She looked towards the door with a complicated expression.

I have to find a chance to go out tomorrow night...

When Xiaoju came back, she saw that the pillow had obviously moved inward, but she didn't seem to have any abnormal expression on the surface, even though Gu Zhiru was staring closely at her eyes, she didn't notice half of it.

She put the porridge on the bedside table, smiled cautiously, and said softly, "Miss, why do you keep looking at me?"

Gu Zhiru shook his head with an incomprehensible smile.

Xiaoju fed the porridge into Gu Zhiru's mouth one by one. The soft and glutinous red beans were combined with the rice cakes. The slight sweetness brought out the rice fragrance of the rice cakes. The fried golden rice cakes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They were very crispy but not hard. The outside is covered with a layer of red bean milk paste, which is fragrant but not greasy.

"Did you do this?" Gu Zhiru looked into her eyes and asked casually.

"It's not. I guarded Miss all night. It was two o'clock in the morning. The night steward told me that she was afraid that Miss would be hungry."

The smile on Gu Zhiru's face deepened a bit, she nodded and said nothing more, half-truth and half-false are easier to believe.

"Okay, you've been sitting here all night, and you're probably tired. I'll give you a day off and go back to sleep for a while."

After Xiaoju left, Gu Zhiru took another look at the post-it note she put under the bed——Ming, two in the morning, goods, moonlight, organization.

The ten characters are written very simply, but they are clearly arranged. Of course, Gu Zhiru can understand, but when he saw the last two characters, his complexion was obviously not as bright as before. This is really sent by the organization. It's a dog, unfortunately it's a puppy. It can't see clearly the internal and external situation. It only knows how to come over and send a small note in such a clumsy way.

Gu Zhiru dialed Ye Chen's public phone: "Send me some snacks. If you want something lighter, you can come up and deliver it yourself. I don't worry about those maids who are frizzy."

"Okay madam, wait a moment. The kitchen is already making almond honey cakes. I'll bring you a few later."

……

Gu Zhiru drank the last mouthful of porridge, he picked up the soft and crunchy little cake just out of the oven, chewed it slowly, he was getting more and more ladylike, he didn't speak but just kept quiet While eating, she didn't speak slowly until the cake was finished.

"Xiaoju is a member of the organization."

Ye Chen shook his head, he didn't know the identity of this girl: "Probably not, I sent a letter to the organization a few days ago, which mentioned this matter, but the organization didn't give a clear answer."

Gu Zhiru clenched the post-it note in his hand.

"I know, you go out first."
