Chapter 315: Use Is it True or False 12_1

Mu Ziying, such a timid and frightened person!

She claimed to hate Dongfang Ji, yet she secretly sneaked off to see him.

And after having seen him, she dumped him onto me and made a run for it!

Who does something like that?

If Uncle and Brother find out, I’ll be the scapegoat.

But right now, Baili Xia simply didn’t have the time to be annoyed with her.

With Dongfang Ji so sick, it’s a matter of life and death.

Who has time to care about anything else?

She rummaged through the medicine box, and after finding a bottle of fever medication, carefully gave him half a bottle.

She then got a towel and wiped his face, neck, and limbs clean.

After toiling away for nearly half an hour, she finally managed to lower his temperature a little.

However, he remained dazed and confused.

Even though his eyes were open, he had an unfocused look.

She didn’t know if she should call the family doctor.

If Brother found out that she had brought Dongfang Ji back, would he lock him up again?

Like Uncle, Brother also had a terrible temper.

If he really decided to take him back, could Dongfang Ji survive until the Dongfang Family arrived, given his current physical condition?

After considering the situation and checking his forehead again, she sighed in relief when she didn’t notice his temperature rising again.

She ordered some porridge from the kitchen via the intercom.

She also called Mu Ziying and asked her to make up an excuse for her, saying she had a stomachache and couldn’t attend the barbecue.

Just then, she began to concentrate on the care of the still not fully awake man by the bedside.

His current condition was partly her fault.

Back in the hall, she had staged a drama, misleading everyone into believing that Dongfang Ji had bullied her.

Ultimately, she was partly to blame for his condition.

As she watched the man lying on the bed, his face slightly flushed from the fever, she couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty.

After his fever subsided, Dongfang Ji slowly began to regain consciousness.

The maid quickly brought up a pot of rice porridge.

Baili Xia dismissed the maid then helped him sit up and carefully spooned two large bowls into his mouth.

Dongfang Ji still didn’t fully understand the situation but all he knew was he was hungry.

After the second bowl, he looked at Baili Xia with eyes still somewhat cloudy.

“You just woke up, your body hasn’t fully recovered yet, so you can’t eat too much at once.”

Baili Xia put away the bowl, helping him to lie back down again.

“Take a nap first, then sweat some more.

I will prepare something else for you to eat later.”

Dongfang Ji remained silent, his gaze still focused on her.

Only after she had covered him with a blanket did he slowly close his eyes.

Baili Xia breathed a sigh of relief, it was rare to see him so obedient.

But now what was she supposed to do?

With an extra man in the room, who knows how this situation will be twisted in the future.

But Dongfang Ji had just gotten better and was still very weak.

If he was once again sent back to that small room, and he again had a high fever, who would take care of him?

After finishing the remaining food, she tidied up and went out, asking the maid to take the dishes back.

Baili Xia returned to the chair beside the bed, lazily yawned.

Her body was still tired, and after a full meal, she was sleepy.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when she slowly closed her eyes.

She rested her head, slumping in her chair, and fell into a deep sleep.

…

The wind tonight has a touch of cold.

It came in from the window, brushing against her face, giving off an indescribable chill.

But soon, that chill turned warm.

And before long, that warmth became a scorching heat!

Baili Xia was abruptly awakened in her dream.

Before she could fully open her eyes, she already detected something strange with her body.

Someone was on top of her, fervently kissing her!
