Chapter 42: The Benevolence of the Healer
Gan Luo lowered his head to help him finish the quilt and was about to straighten up, but accidentally the other party reached out and fished it over, Gan Luo's body was sideways, and Zhou Jingrui's hand wiped her cheek.
His strength was not great, it was more like a light stroke, Gan Luo suddenly felt that his face was hot, and seeing his drowsy appearance, he reached out and pinched the other party's cheek, "If you dodge it, you may slap me." ”
The skin touched by his fingers was hot, and he reached out and touched the other party's forehead, Gan Luo took the thermometer to help him measure his temperature, and saw that it had risen to 38.9 °C.
Hu Mei's high fever was caused by the wound, she didn't know the specific reason for Zhou Jingrui's fever, looking at the needle hole of the infusion on the back of his hand, Gan Luo clenched her hands, even if there was a fever reducer at home, she couldn't use it indiscriminately.
Replacing the fever tape on Zhou Jingrui's forehead, Gan Luo found alcohol and wiped Zhou Jingrui's arms and forehead with a cotton cloth, but the area was not enough to cool down, Gan Luo stared at the buttons of Zhou Jingrui's shirt and frowned.
"It's just to cool you down, and if you keep burning, you might be a fool...... If you don't speak, you say yes. ”
"Those who save people should be informal. ”
Gan Luo muttered to himself, holding a cotton cloth dipped in alcohol with one hand, and reaching for the button on Zhou Jingrui's chest with the other.
Ganlo counted the time to cool him down with alcohol.
In the middle of the night, Ganluo felt more and more sleepy, and sat on the side to take a nap.
"Ding Ding Ding!" As soon as the alarm clock set on the side rang, Gan Luo subconsciously rubbed his temples to wake up, and reached out to touch the other party's forehead.
Feeling the coolness of his heart and forehead, in a daze, Zhou Jingrui half-opened his eyes, glanced at Gan Luo, who was staring at the ceiling with his neck tilted, and his fever and slightly hoarse voice was resentful, "It's not as bad as you think." ”
Gan Luo was still a little sleepy and hazy, but when he heard this, he realized the meaning of the other party's words, and his face was red to the root of his ears.
"Your fever is a little abnormal. ”
Gan Luo changed the subject, filled the handkerchief in his hand with alcohol, and helped him wipe his neck, collarbone, and heart and lungs with lightning speed.
He could feel the pain of his blushing face, and Gan Luo took a breath and turned his back to him, "The temperature has almost dropped." ”
"You sweat a lot, you have warm water next to your pillow, and when you are thirsty, you take it yourself. Ganlo got up and took the basin and face towel out of the living room.
Zhou Jingrui turned his head and glanced at the alarm clock on the coffee table, half past two in the morning.
There was a notebook that recorded his body temperature next to the alarm clock, took a look, it was recorded very neatly, measured every 15 minutes, and drew a curve chart, Zhou Jingrui raised the corners of his mouth, glanced in the direction of Gan Luo's distance, and gently tore off the piece of paper that recorded his body temperature and held it well.
took a sip of water from the water cup, looked around, he was sleeping in the living room, and there was still the residual smell of alcohol after evaporation, looking down, his clothes were half open, and he remembered that when he opened his eyes and saw Ganluo looking at the ceiling with his neck stalked, Zhou Jingrui showed a warm smile on his face.
After buttoning up her clothes, Zhou Jingrui got up and called her, "Ganluo?"
"Here. ”
Gan Luo was in the kitchen, guarding him for most of the night, his stomach was hungry and tight, his stomach was empty, and he would definitely not be able to sleep when he went to sleep now, so he simply boiled two poached egg mats to make up for it.
He remembered that Ganluo didn't eat much at dinner, there were only two of them at home, and now it was late at night, and the kitchen of Ganluo's house was smaller, so it was not appropriate for him to go in again, and the steps he took into the kitchen stopped in mid-air and retreated, Zhou Jingrui leaned against the door and looked at her back, "What are you cooking?"
"Poached eggs. ”
Gan Luo turned his head to look at him, the other party's complexion was much better than just now, turned around and touched the temperature of the porcelain bowl containing lotus root powder, and muttered, "I scalded the lotus root powder for you." The poached eggs are mine. ”
Zhou Jingrui looked at her back, his eyes did not move a bit, with a trace of imperceptible emotion, "It's still early in the morning, go sleep for a while." ”
"Eat and go. Gan Luo put the poached egg into the bowl and handed him the lotus root flour in his hand, "Well, drink it and sleep well." ”
Zhou Jingrui took the porcelain bowl in her hand, swallowed the words to his lips again, and looked down at her, "Thank you"
Gan Luo nodded, took this gratitude, looked around, just didn't look at Zhou Jingrui's eyes, and instructed: "Drink more water, the kettle is placed next to you, and you will come by yourself when you are thirsty at night." I went to sleep. ”
"Hmm," Zhou Jingrui nodded in agreement.
After eating the poached eggs in a few bites, Ganluo simply washed up and walked straight to his room.
With his back against the door, his head buzzed non-stop, and Gan Luo gritted his teeth when he heard the scene just now, he was so embarrassed, he drilled towards the bed, why did he wake up at that time?!
"Actually, it's not a big deal, am I being too conservative?" Gan Luo muttered, leaning sideways to stare at the fleshy on the bedside table, "Is it because of the first time I undressed someone else?"
"Why are you so weak-hearted......" Gan Luo tossed and turned, pulling the quilt over his head, "No matter!
“...... Can't sleep...... Can't sleep......"
Ganluo poked his head out of the quilt and stared at the ceiling in a daze, unable to sleep, but the more he thought about it, the less sleepy he became.
She measured the other party's temperature once every fifteen minutes, and now more than half an hour has passed, and I don't know if it has been repeated, Ganluo got up, barefoot, and quietly opened a crack in the door and glanced at the living room.
The lights in the living room had been turned off, Zhou Jingrui was on the floor with his eyes open, he didn't fall asleep, but looked at the moonlight thrown in from the window in a daze, and closed his eyes when he heard the sound of Gan Luo opening the door.
Barefoot around the coffee table, Gan Luo walked lightly to Zhou Jingrui's side, listening to the steady breathing, Gan Luo was sure that the other party was asleep, reached out and touched his forehead, had returned to normal body temperature, and quietly slipped back to the room on tiptoe.
The living room returned to silence, the silver-white moonlight sprinkled out of the window, Zhou Jingrui opened his eyes to see the dividing line between black and silver, closed his eyes, and slept soundly all night.
