Qiao Anhao couldn't help but stare in a daze.
When she finally snapped back to reality, the sky outside the window was already dark. The villa, which was located halfway up the mountain, was already quiet, and now it was even quieter. She could faintly hear the sounds of birds and insects in the forest outside the villa.
The lights in the bedroom weren't turned on, so it was pitch black. Qiao Anhao took out her phone, and with the help of the light from the phone screen, she switched off the lights. She reached out her hand to touch Lu Jinnian's forehead, and realized that the fever had subsided a little, but it was still very hot. She replaced the towel on his forehead with a new one that was soaked in cold water.
Qiao Anhao stayed by his side the entire time, not sleeping. Every once in a while, she would change the towel on his forehead. When it was eleven at night, his temperature was finally no longer as frighteningly high. Only then did she relax. She sat on the floor, sprawled by the side of the bed, and uncontrollably fell asleep.
Because of her bad sleeping position, Qiao Anhao didn't sleep for long before she woke up. The first thing she did was to touch Lu Jinnian's forehead out of habit. She realized that the temperature that had subsided had risen again. She hurriedly used the cold towel to wipe Lu Jinnian's body to cool him down, but this time, it was completely useless. His temperature continued to rise, and in the end, due to the discomfort, he let out a low moan.
The cold towel was probably only able to temporarily cool him down, and to completely remove the root of the problem, medicine was still needed.
In the middle of the night, in the wilderness, Qiao Anhao was really afraid that if Lu Jinnian continued to have a fever, it would cause a problem, but he was unconscious and couldn't take medicine...
Qiao Anhao stared at Lu Jinnian for a while, then as though she had made up her mind, she stood up and grabbed the medicine from the bedside table. She first stuffed it into Lu Jinnian's mouth, then drank a mouthful of water. Slowly, she lowered her head, and moved closer to Lu Jinnian's lips.
As Qiao Anhao lowered her head, Lu Jinnian's face drew closer to hers. She could clearly feel his breathing, and her entire body tensed up. Her hands on both sides of Lu Jinnian's head gripped the bedsheets tightly, and her trembling lips pressed against Lu Jinnian's.
Qiao Anhao felt as though her heart had stopped beating. Besides the night three months ago when they were drunk, this was the second time their lips touched.
Qiao Anhao held her breath, and passed the water in her mouth into Lu Jinnian's mouth. Then, she used the tip of her tongue to push the medicine and water down his throat. After he swallowed the medicine and water, she hurriedly left his lips. She raised her hand to cover her mouth, gasping for air. She could feel her heart racing, as though it was going to jump out of her throat at any moment.
