Chapter 571: 571 Our Dad (5)_1
"Let
assist you!" Seeing him struggling to hang the IV drip bag without asking for help, Eleven rushed over instantly.
With an IV in his left hand and his right hand unable to bend properly, even his fingers could only wiggle a little. It was a pitiful sight.
Who knew when it would get better?
After helping him set up the bag, she patted the bed and lifted the covers for him to lie down, providing him a full-service package.
"I’m thirsty."
"Hot or cold water?" Before he could respond, she answered herself, "Hot water is better! When in doubt, hot water to the rescue!"
She poured him so water, waited for him to finish drinking. She then noticed that the air conditioning was still on and promptly turned it off.
"Why’d you turn it off? Isn’t it hot?"
"Given how much of a fever you have, you can’t have the AC on anymore."
"I’m fine—"
What did she think he was, a feverish toddler?
He was fully aware of his body’s condition. He wasn’t that frail.
"Even if you’re okay, you should still avoid it. It’s starting to get warr, but it’s not sumr yet. Just bear with it for a while, I’ll open the window for so fresh air."
Just as Gu Liancheng was about to speak, Eleven added while opening the window, "I’m not doing this solely for you, you know. What if your virus spreads to , and then I spread it to the kids when I get ho?"
"..." Truly a waste of his concern.
After a long day of being sick, Gu Liancheng was feeling weary. He was too exhausted to shower, deciding to sleep through the night and freshen up in the morning.
Eleven noticed that he was sleeping restlessly and coughing in his sleep. Touching his cheek, she felt it still burning, even turning a slight shade of red.
She had never seen him this unconscious due to illness. Eleven stared at him, leaning on the headboard. He seed fragile for once, like a delicate flower.
Pity, he was still a wolf underneath. Even when injured, taking down a hopping bunny like her would be a piece of cake.
Well, she should let this wolf cool down a bit then.
Eleven fetched a bowl of warm water. While he was sleeping, she gently unbuttoned his patient’s attire, spreading it to the sides.
Physical cooling requires wiping down with warm water to disperse heat instead of cold water.
She did it lightly, trying not to wake him up, very carefully.
As she was almost done wiping his abdon, he suddenly grabbed her wrist. On turning to the side, Gu Liancheng’s eyes were fixed on her, "Gu Qianxun, what are you doing?"
"Help—"
"Are you taking advantage of
when I’m not alert?"
"You’re the one making a fuss! I would never—"
Her glance fell on his exposed body, the muscles in his abdon rising and falling with his rapid breathing. A man and a woman exchanging glances, a flirtatious atmosphere gradually arose.
"Cough..." Eleven scratched her cheeks, "Although your physique is impressive, I’m not the type to take advantage of others in a crisis."
"Really? However, you may take advantage of my vulnerability, I promise I won’t bla you." He squinted his eyes.
"No no no," Eleven quickly waved her hands, "I’m just helping you wipe your body to aid in cooling down."
"Oh really? Then I must agree," the corner of his mouth lifted, "Do you need my cooperation? Done wiping my upper body? Now wipe down below."
"Hey no—" She didn’t intend to continue wiping his lower half!
In her panic, Eleven’s hand landed on his. Unfortunately, it was right on his belt buckle.
