When Jian Ran came in the morning, she found that she was the first one to arrive, and the other two didn't come.

It just so happened that he hadn't come here yesterday to tidy up his locker and desk.He put the fresh-keeping boxes of fruits and small cakes brought by Chen Yi into the fresh-keeping layer of the refrigerator, watered some water on the only pot of green plants in the office, and began to clean and mop the floor comprehensively.

After cleaning the ground, seeing that the two of them hadn't arrived yet, Jian Ran sat at her desk and turned on the computer, studying and thinking about the Baroque clothing style.After a while, he didn't wait for Su Wanwan, but Li Xiang came again with a tired face, Jian Ran stood up and greeted him with a smile.

"Morning." Li Xiang replied lightly, frowning and scanning the room with unhappy eyes, "Where's Su Wanwan?"

"Not here yet. Maybe there's a traffic jam on the road." Seeing that he was about to plunge into the studio again, Jian Ran quickly picked up the pencil case and gel pen from the table and chased after him, "Brother Xiang, here it is for you."

Li Xiang took the translucent frosted pencil case, and said "Thank you" a little tiredly.He didn't realize that the carrot was a pen, so he followed Jian Ran's instructions and pressed the leaf on the top of the carrot pen twice. When he found out that it was a gel pen, he smiled and said that Jian Ran was quite childlike.

"You don't think it's childish."

"Not childish. Childlike innocence is the best talent." After Li Xiang finished speaking, he walked to the water dispenser and poured a lot of roasted coffee into the quilt without even looking at it. "Help me tidy up the studio later. Wait for Su Wanwan to come and listen to her speech together. When it's over, tell me your opinion."

Jian Ran saw that his aura was weaker than yesterday, so she also relaxed, and asked a little unconfidently: "Brother Xiang, I'm an amateur, and my aesthetics are not very good. Will my suggestions cause trouble for you?"

"No, it's up to you whether you listen or not." Li took the coffee cup and gulped down more than 300ml of "concentration". At this moment, Jian Ran realized that Li Xiang was not only very kind to others, but also to herself. Also ruthless.

How bitter is that cup of black bottomless coffee.

As for the reference books in his studio, Li Xiang asked Jian Ran to pick and read whatever she liked, as long as she put them back in place when the time came, there was no need to report them.Jian Ran just picked a few books that looked relatively easy to get started and sat at the desk to read, and would write some notes from time to time. When the alarm clock for his meal order rang, he was hesitating whether to order a copy for Su Wanwan as well. During the meal, Li Xiang came out of the room with a bad face and told him to leave Su Wanwan alone.

"She asked for leave today, saying that her menstrual period is coming." Li Xiang frowned when he spoke, as if he was a little unhappy.

Seeing his expression, Jane felt that he was a little unreasonable.Because he grew up with his mother and was surrounded by women, he understands how difficult those few days of each month are for girls.When he was in the shop in City S before, he often replaced Lili and Xiaozhang for them, especially in winter. He also prepared brown sugar ginger tea and warm babies for them in the drawer.

But this day is really a coincidence, Li Xiang seems to have been tormented by the design recently, and it is normal to be unwilling.But after a while, Jian Ran greeted him and went to pick up the meal. Li Xiang asked him to bring him another ice cream.Because she noticed that he had lost his appetite yesterday, today Jian Ran deliberately ordered a different restaurant.Unexpectedly, Li Xiang ate a few mouthfuls and then put it down. He only ate half of the ice cream, and the coffee was brought to the inner room of the studio.

After Jian Ran finished her meal, she cleared the table, and after a while, she heard the sound of stools being overturned and cups breaking.

He hurriedly opened the door and saw that Li Xiang was lying on the ground with a pale complexion, the dark brown coffee spilled on the floor and soaked a lot of drawings.Jian Ran came over and quickly helped Li Xiang to lift him up from the high stool that he had overturned, but Li Xiang shook his head and asked him to finish the manuscript first, he was just a little dizzy and nothing serious.

Unable to resist him, Jian Ran had no choice but to let him sit on the wicker chair next to her, then pick up the manuscript and hang it to dry before cleaning up the mess all over the floor.While cleaning, Jian Ran stared at Li Xiang holding his cell phone in a daze.

"Brother Xiang, how about I take you to the hospital?"

"No. It's just that I haven't slept well recently." Li Xiang rubbed his temples and asked Jian Ran to go to the iron box on her desk to see if there was any candy, and bring him a piece.

When Jian Ran walked to the desk, she saw the cute and festive snack box that was incompatible with the studio's furnishings.He lifted the lid, and there was still the lingering smell of the butter cookies that once held inside.Holding the empty box, he glanced at Li Xiang, who was lying on the wicker chair with his eyes closed, with some reluctance: "Brother, I happen to be going to take out the trash, so I'll buy it for you."

"It's gone, isn't it?" Li Xiang murmured disappointedly.

"Well... But there are still candy wrappers. I know this brand of toffee, and they sell it downstairs."

Li Xiang closed his eyes, shook his head slightly, and told him in a weak tone that he should not bother and go to have a lunch break.Seeing this, Jian Ran didn't say anything, she just hummed and gently closed the glass door for him.

As soon as Jian Ran left, Li Xiang dared to relax, allowing his body to be filled with exhaustion.His mind was blank now, and he felt as helpless as a leaf falling in the wind.

He knew what he was upset about, but this ending was also brought about by himself.That day, it was not so much that Li Xiang drove him away, it was better to say that Li Xiang couldn't afford to lose, and he just pretended to lose decently in the name of driving him away.

Li Xiang opened the previous chat history with his mobile phone, and found that the last one was two months ago.At that time, Yang Fei asked him if he wanted to send back the spare key of the door lock.

How did he return?

"No, I'll just replace the lock with a new one."

It took Yang Fei a long time before he replied "Yes".

Li Xiang didn't dare to look at the phone any more, and threw it directly on the coffee table next to him.He was so tired that he didn't want to do anything.

Jian Ran found out that Li Xiang had a fever two hours later.Based on yesterday's impression, he reckoned that Li Xiang's lunch break would be about an hour, but he was afraid that Li Xiang would be too tired today, so he waited another hour before looking for him.When he knocked on the door with the candy he bought from downstairs, Li Xiang didn't respond to him.

He thought it was because Li Xiang was too involved, so he knocked harder, but still no one answered.Jian Ran didn't know where the intuition came from, she instinctively pushed open the glass door, and found that Li Xiang was lying on the bench with his head tilted, sleeping evenly, his face was abnormally red.

Jian Ran boldly touched Li Xiang's forehead, and found that it was terribly hot, so she quickly put the sugar on the table beside her, trying to tell Li Xiang to get up first.Although Li Xiang reacted a bit, he was not sober, he muttered "Yang Fei, let me sleep for a while", then he slapped his hands away and went back to sleep.

Only then did Jane remember that Li Xiang only came here wearing a thin sweater and cardigan this morning.Before, he thought it was Li Xiang who put the coat in the car, but now it seems that he probably didn't wear thick clothes when he went out.

It's the first time Jian Ran has experienced such a thing as her boss being sick, but it seems inappropriate to call for an emergency.He hurriedly found a scarf and a thick coat from his closet and put them on. Just as he was about to pick up Li Xiang and take him to the hospital like the male protagonist in the TV series, he found that his little strength was not enough to watch.He tried to wake up Li Xiang to go with him again, but this time Li Xiang actually scolded him and told him to leave quickly.

Jian Ran had no choice but felt that it was not good for Li Xiang to be seen by outsiders and subordinates, so she called Chen Yi: "Old Chen, can you come over?"

"What's wrong?" There was the sound of brushing pens on Chen Yi's side, as if he was signing a document.

"Brother Xiang is sick. He has a fever, and the fever is quite severe." Jian Ran covered her mouth and glanced at Li Xiang behind her, then lowered her voice and whispered: "He doesn't want to go to the hospital, and I can't hold him... "..."

"Wait, I'll go right away."

"En." Jian Ran nodded to the phone receiver, and said as if she remembered something, "By the way, Lao Chen, do you have an extra coat?"

"Have."

"Can you bring me one? I lent Brother Xiang to wear it."

"it is good."

"Then I'll show brother Xiang if there's any anti-fever medicine, and I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Jian Ran breathed a sigh of relief.Although he wanted to help Li Xiang find medicine, he didn't dare to rummage through his personal belongings, so he could only see if there was any medicine box from the outside.In the end, he really found a plastic storage box with a cross drawn on it. After Jane opened it, she found that the medicine inside was quite complete, but it looked a little interesting. The cough syrup in it was strawberry, and the vitamins were in the form of fudge. Calcium tablets are milk-flavored, and even fever medicine is a children's type.According to the instructions, he took an adult's measure and poured a cup of warm water to dissolve it. He woke up Li Xiang again and asked him to get up and take the medicine.

"No."

"Brother Xiang, hurry up, get up." Jian Ran saw that his blushing face was limp and looked like he was being coquettish, and she almost said "Quickly be obedient".

"Yang Fei...don't worry about me... just let me die of illness." Li Xiang buried his head in Jian Ran's coat holding his breath, but took his head out of the coat within two seconds. He asked in a daze, "This clothes...isn't it your taste?"

"Brother Xiang, it's mine, it's Jian Ran's."

Li Xiang seemed to understand but didn't understand, nodded and lay back on the rattan chair.It seemed that something was wrong, so he raised his head and asked, "What about Yang Fei? Has he gone to buy me medicine?"

"Ah, Yang Fei...Yang Fei...yes, I went to buy medicine." Jian Ran didn't dare to look at him, she stared at her toes and said nonsense, "Brother Xiang, you should take the medicine and go to the hospital later Take your body temperature, if you have a fever again, you might have to hang water and get an injection.”

Upon hearing this, Li Xiang became more obedient, holding the cup and pinching his nose, he finished drinking the granule, sticking out his tongue and yelling in distaste that it's really bad.At this time, Chen Yi sent a message telling him that there was still one intersection to arrive, and told him not to worry.Jian Ran thoughtfully reminded him that the situation has improved a lot, and told him to concentrate on driving and not to be distracted.

While waiting, Jian Ran was going to tidy up Li Xiang's desk.When he picked up a pile of messy papers, he suddenly found a small white business card under the keyboard.

There is a line of words printed in simple fonts: Utopia chief designer Li Xiang's personal assistant, Yang Fei.Below is the English version and a string of phone numbers.

He put the business card in his pocket by accident, and Chen Yi also came in from the outside with fast steps, and at a glance he saw Li Xiang lying on the rattan chair wearing a simple coat and sleeping soundly.

Jian Ran took the coat in his hand and walked out with Chen Yi as she put it on: "I just gave brother Xiang medicine. He also looks better and knows how to take care of others."

"Yeah." Chen Yi carried Li Xiang into the elevator, and praised him for discovering it early. There was a time when Li Xiang caught a cold and almost developed pneumonia. "Don't think he is a workaholic, but his health is not very good. I I only found out after getting to know him. Every time he designs an earth-shattering work, he suffers from a serious illness, so his family has never supported him because of this relationship. His family has enough money for him to spend several lifetimes. So his parents don't want him to be too tired, just hope that he can live a safe and healthy life."

"But Brother Xiang is not the kind of person who is willing to stay at home and earn his living."

"Well." The two of them had already brought Li Xiang to Chen Yi's car, and Jian Ran opened the door of the back seat and let Li Xiang lie on the back seat, "So when he came out to do it alone, no one dared to give him a hand. Only I dare to invest money. Later we became good friends.”

Although he was a little dissatisfied, because of Li Xiang's illness, Chen Yi reluctantly allowed him to lie on Jian Ran's lap.

After everything settled down, the three of them set off in the direction of the hospital.Jane touched the business card in her pocket, and a bold idea came to her mind.
