To seduce her

The night was as dark as ink, quietly covering the entire garden.

The stars were hidden behind the thick clouds, and only a few cold rays of moonlight struggled to penetrate the mist and fell on Xia Yizhui.

An unexpected cool breeze blew over, bringing with it the slight chill of the night and invading Xia Yizhuo's heart.

The hair was gently lifted by the night wind and then slowly fell down.

Xia Yizu looked at the unquestionable look in Gao Yushan's eyes, and his heart was desolate.

She knew very well that she had never had the power to decide the direction of the plot in this story.

She is even just an insignificant supporting role. Without the brilliance of the protagonist, she can't change anything.

She had no choice but to accept it.

Xia Yizhu took a deep breath, raised his chin slightly, and a hint of slightly paranoid stubbornness flashed in his eyes: "Mr. Gao, I only have one question for you. You..."

Have you ever liked me?

Gao Yushan pulled the corner of his lips: "Between you and me, is there any need to ask such a question?"

There was sarcasm in his words.

Xia Yizhui's breath choked and he finally fell into despair.

Yes, the relationship between them was not something that could be made public, so what right did she have to ask him whether he had any feelings for her?

"I understand." Xia Yizhu lowered his head and looked at the broken pieces of the flower pot at the foot of Gao Yushan. He felt the same way: "Don't give me money. I can earn it myself. As for the 500,000 yuan... I will try my best to pay you back, but it may take some time."

Xia Yizhu took a half step back, as if he had made up his mind, and bowed to Gao Yushan: "Thank you, Mr. Gao. Thank you for saving me from my parents and giving me a wonderful first love. Please give me a few days, I will find a job while finishing the work at your home and the old house. After I find a new job, I will leave Lukang, goodbye."

"..."

After saying that, Xia Yizhui turned and left.

Under the moonlight, Gao Yushan's eyes closely followed Xia Yizhuo's running figure.

The girl unconsciously pulled her skirt with her hands, and the skirt swayed gently in the night breeze, drawing a graceful arc behind her.

Her steps were a little hurried, as if she was eager to escape from here.

Her back looked particularly slender and stubborn in the moonlight.

Gao Yushan looked at her and felt a slight pain somewhere in his heart.

Things are finally getting back on track, right?

Gao Yuchuan felt really uncomfortable.

He was delirious from the fever, and his consciousness was as if wrapped in smoke, hazy and blurred.

He felt a cool hand touching his forehead, a touch that was both real and unreal. Gao Yuchuan tried hard to open his heavy eyelids, and the scene in front of him gradually became clear.

The light was soft, and Shen Yaochu's worried face came into view.

Gao Yuchuan's confused mind made him unsure for a moment whether everything he saw was real.

Is it an illusion? A dream? Or...really?

"Yao Chu..."

Gao Yuchuan's originally clear and powerful voice now sounded a little hoarse and weak.

His breathing was accompanied by low gasps, and it was obvious that he was in real pain.

Shen Yaochu's body froze. She didn't answer, but turned on the light beside his bed to see Gao Yuchuan's current appearance more clearly.

The man's angular face was flushed, his narrow eyes were slightly narrowed, but it could be seen that they were full of bloodshot, and he looked extremely weak.

Gao Yuchuan blinked repeatedly, as if the scene in front of him was too blurry and he wanted to see the woman's face more clearly.

But his hazy vision didn't become much clearer, and his eyes became even more tired.

The tenderness and desire in the eyes, baked by the heat of the body, became more and more intense.

Shen Yaochu felt a little uncomfortable for a moment when she was stared at by that burning gaze.

Shen Yaochu turned his eyes away and suppressed his beating heart.

She is a doctor, and there is no one else who can help him now. As his current wife and the mother of his child, it is her duty to handle it for him.

After all, we can't let him burn to death at home and leave the children without a father.

Thinking of this, Shen Yaochu reached out and grasped his wrist, with her fingertips resting on it.

The fingertips felt hot to the touch. Gao Yuchuan's body temperature must be high, he must have a severe fever.

Feeling the pulse beating at her fingertips, the rapid rhythm made her frown slightly.

She had to find a way to cool him down.

Shen Yaochu let go of his wrist and turned to get the medicine box.

But just as she turned around, a hot hand grabbed her wrist.

It was very fast, but weak, and Shen Yaochu was able to break free with just a slight effort.

His arrogance, under the influence of the fever, had lost all its intimidating power.

Shen Yaochu turned around and met Gao Yuchuan's deep and blurred eyes.

Gao Yuchuan seemed to have a lot to say, but he was so tired that he could only open his mouth reluctantly: "Don't..."

Don’t go…

Before he could finish his words, Gao Yuchuan's hands dropped down weakly.

His eyes were half closed, as if still open, but he no longer had the strength to pull her.

Watching Shen Yaochu leave, Gao Yuchuan felt anxious, but his body hindered his actions.

What happened to him? Why couldn't he control his body...

Or... is everything just a dream...

*****

----

Wake up from dream.

When Gao Yuchuan woke up again, the sunlight had already filtered through the gap in the curtains and fell into the room.

Gao Yuchuan suddenly woke up and felt his whole body burning hot and extremely uncomfortable.

He opened his eyes with difficulty, his eyes were bloodshot due to the high fever, and were full of anxiety and uneasiness.

When he was dazed last night, he saw Shen Yaochu!

This thought urged him to struggle to get up from the bed and look around for the figure.

He looked around, his eyes searching the room, not missing a single inch.

A dim room, a cup of water by the bed, a medicine bottle on the table...

It seems that Shen Yaochu really came to take care of him last night!

A hint of surprise flashed in Gao Yuchuan's eyes, and only then did he have the mind to check his own problem.

He raised his hand and touched his forehead, it was hot.

He must have a fever.

Gao Yuchuan is in good health and rarely has a fever.

But this time, he was inexplicably glad that he suddenly had a fever.

At this moment, the door handle turned gently, making a slight "click" sound.

Gao Yuchuan's heart moved, and he instantly raised his eyes and looked towards the door.

The door was gently pushed open, and a beam of light came in and fell on Gao Yuchuan's face.

A woman stood at the door with her back to the light. The light behind her enveloped her entire body, making her look somewhat unreal.

That figure made Gao Yuchuan's heart beat slightly.

"Yao——"

"Mr. Gao, are you awake?"

The girl's clear and crisp voice sounded, but it was like a basin of ice water poured over one's head.

Gao Yuchuan's expression froze instantly, and the joy in his eyes disappeared instantly, replaced by obvious disappointment and indifference.

"why you."

"..."
