Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Taking Care of the Delicate Wife All Night _1
After he left, Xia Qingtian hurriedly took her clothes and ran into the bathroom to change.
Having changed, she put away the clothes she had taken off, opened the bedroom door again, and found that Bo Jingyan was not outside.
Thinking she had avoided him, Xia Qingtian breathed a sigh of relief, quickly sneaked back to her bedroom, shut the door, her heart thundering wildly in her chest.
When she thought about what had just happened, she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself in it.
Xia Qingtian covered her face and fell back on the bed, wrapping herself in the blanket and burying her face in the pillow, her mind a whirlwind.
She did not know how much ti had passed…
While lying in bed, Xia Qingtian felt feverish, as if she was burning up, she had broken out in a cold sweat, but then she felt like she was falling into a cold pit, frozen to the point that she couldn’t breathe.
She felt so uncomfortable…
All she felt was the extre discomfort in her body…
Bo Jingyan sat by Xia Qingtian’s bedside, his eyebrows tightly furrowed as he stared at the thermoter in his hand with tight lips. His cold face was full of gloom.
40 degrees!
Does this woman not know she has a fever?
If his private doctor hadn’t co over, he wouldn’t have gone to her bedroom to look for her.
Otherwise, no one would have known if her temperature had hit 41 degrees!
Bo Jingyan solemnly put the thermoter on the table, let the doctor give her so dicine, fed Xia Qingtian the dicine, and then had the Butler see the doctor out.
Only Bo Jingyan remained in the bedroom. He lowered his eyes and looked at Xia Qingtian, who was unconscious on the bed.
Her face was flushed, and even in sleep, her brows were furrowed and her expression uneasy.
Seeing her like this, for so reason, Bo Jingyan felt a block in chest, a sense of uneasiness brewing.
This wasn’t the first ti he felt this way.
When she fell into the water before, he was even more fearful and anxious.
What was he afraid of?
She was just his private cook…
Or was it because… last night in the garden, she gave him the feeling of being that woman from the other night?
As Bo Jingyan was thinking, Xia Qingtian suddenly grabbed his hand and cried out, “Mom, don’t leave!!!”
Bo Jingyan’s thoughts were suddenly pulled back to the woman on the bed.
She was clearly delirious.
She was calling him Mom.
“Mom… I miss you…” Xia Qingtian sobbed, holding onto Bo Jingyan, tears rolling down her face.
Bo Jingyan felt an inexplicable softness in his heart.
He had never seen this vulnerable side of Xia Qingtian before.
After seeing the doctor out, the Butler returned to the bedroom.
Seeing Bo Jingyan sitting at the bedside, exhaustion visible on his cold face, the Butler couldn’t help but speak up, “Mr. Bo, you should rest. Let
stay with Miss Xia.”
“No need.” Bo Jingyan refused, “You go rest!”
He knew the Butler’s health wasn’t good, and didn’t want the Butler to fall ill just as Xia Qingtian recovers.
The Butler opened his mouth to say sothing, but in the end, simply nodded and walked out of the bedroom.
Complete silence.
Early the next morning.
Upon waking, Xia Qingtian’s first sight was Bo Jingyan’s handso face.
She was taken aback, noticing that her hand was tightly gripping Bo Jingyan’s, and imdiately pulled it away in panic.
What was going on?
Why was Bo Jingyan in her room?
Had she… held his hand?
Xia Qingtian stared blankly at Bo Jingyan.
Suddenly, his eyelashes trembled.
Bo Jingyan slowly opened his eyes, fatigue evident in his gaze. Seeing her awake, he asked in a hoarse voice, “You’re awake?”
Xia Qingtian looked at him, opened her mouth slowly, her voice sowhat hoarse, “Mmm…”
Hearing her, Bo Jingyan looked at her once more and reached out to touch her forehead.
Xia Qingtian subconsciously closed her eyes, gradually opening them only when she felt his touch on her forehead.
“It’s okay, you’re not feverish anymore.” Bo Jingyan pulled back his hand, his gaze on her carrying an ineffable depth, leaving her lost.
Only then did Xia Qingtian snap out of it.
The implication of his words was… she had a fever last night?
“You can rest so more, I’ll be going.” Seeing she was fine, Bo Jingyan withdrew his hand, got up from the bed, and planned to leave.
Xia Qingtian sat up on the bed, watching him silently.
As Bo Jingyan got up to leave, he seed to rember sothing and suddenly stopped, turned back to her and asked in a low voice, “Was it Luo Nainai who pushed you into the pool last night?”
Hearing his question, Xia Qingtian nodded.
Getting her confirmation.
Bo Jingyan didn’t say anything more and left her bedroom.
Xia Qingtian sat by her bed, watching his departing figure, her heart filled with indescribable feelings.
She was sick last night?
Bo Jingyan watched over her all night?
Thinking about this, Xia Qingtian felt a strange feeling surging in her heart.
Her heart began to beat uncontrollably.
Once she had cald herself, Xia Qingtian got out of bed and prepared to leave the bedroom.
She ca down to the living room but didn’t see Bo Jingyan, the Butler told her he was in the study.
Thinking about how he had saved her last night, Xia Qingtian felt sowhat grateful.
She went into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, intending to make a sumptuous lunch for Bo Jingyan as a way of expressing her thanks!
Over an hour later, having finished preparing lunch, with the Butler’s help, she had served all the dishes. But Bo Jingyan didn’t co down.
Xia Qingtian looked up at the stairs, took off her apron, and went upstairs.
To the study.
As she was about to knock on the door, she heard a woman sobbing inside.
Xia Qingtian froze, her hand hanging in mid-air.
Was there soone else in the study?
Just as she was puzzled, she suddenly heard the woman inside speak in a familiar voice.
“Bo, it was an accident! I didn’t an to hurt Miss Xia, I… I just wanted to teach her a lesson!”
This voice, Xia Qingtian would never forget in her life.
It was Luo Nainai!
How dare she show her face here?!
Thinking about how she had almost died at the hands of Luo Nainai, and then how she had had a fever all night, Xia Qingtian felt anger boiling up inside her.
At the height of her anger, Bo Jingyan’s cold voice ca from inside, “Ha! Whether you intended to do it or not, I’ve already investigated!”
Upon hearing his words, Luo Nainai quivered, and couldn’t help but break down crying, sobbing, “Bo, I really admit my mistake, please forgive , please…”
Bo Jingyan sat in his office chair, his face impassive, looking at her with cold, emotionless eyes.
He looked at her coldly, his voice aloof, “You hurt my people, and think you can just apologise to solve the problem?”
