088. Only on your own

I moved my somewhat sore arm, and was about to raise my hand to wipe the sweat from my forehead, when I realized that I had a needle inserted in my right hand. ↙ Eighty-eight ↙ ↙ reading ↙, .※.o◇

No wonder I felt a little pain just now.

I glanced up until I landed on the medical infusion stand next to the bed, and then I realized that I was hanging water.

My head crashed for a moment, am I still dreaming?

Raised his left hand and pinched his face, as if it didn't hurt much, and wiped the sweat on his forehead by the way, and then closed his eyes tiredly.

Why, it's so tiring and decadent to even dream?

The room was silent, so quiet that you could hear the potion dripping into the tube.

I closed my eyes, but my consciousness gradually became clear, and there was a faint sound of footsteps walking to the bed, I just opened my eyes, and at the same time I looked at Lu Xudong's deep eyes, and a warm palm also fell on my forehead.

Not dreaming? I looked at him with some hesitation.

He quickly took it back, with a somewhat indifferent expression on his face, and solemnly told me: "You have a fever, and you are still asleep and awake, I have found a doctor to come to the house!"

Of course I knew I had a fever, and I knew it was going to be bad before I climbed into bed and went to bed, and I was usually in good health, at most twice a year, and I usually just hugged the quilt and covered my head to sleep, and it was good to sweat.

But what is he doing now? He actually went out of his way to find a doctor to come to his house, and even hung up the potion for me, is he habitually acting as a loving husband and wife as before, or is he pitying me?

As if seeing through my thoughts, Lu Xudong pulled his lips and smiled, "Don't worry, I know you don't want to be sympathetic, I'm just doing my duty!"

It was the same gentle expression and tone as before, but with a slight hint of coldness.

"Thank you!" I really don't have the strength to fight with him anymore, and I don't have the confidence to fight with him anymore, I don't want to ask for trouble anymore, not to mention that I am indeed taken care of by him.

After thanking him, seeing that he was still standing by the bed, he couldn't help but stare at him weakly: "Are you still in trouble?"

Lu Xudong didn't speak, but raised his chin towards the head of the bed, I turned to look at it suspiciously, only to find that the potion was almost finished.

He's going to change my potion?

His eyes subconsciously scanned the various tables, chairs, and counters in the room, and he didn't see anything else resembling a potion, but a small first aid kit was placed on the bedside table under the stand where the medicine bottle was hung.

It is always prepared at home, which is to put some medical supplies that can be used daily, such as gauze, band-aids, alcohol, thermometers and other things, which are usually stored in the cabinet in the living room.

I reacted suddenly, and turned my head to look at Lu Xudong dumbfounded.

As if to confirm my thoughts, Lu Xudong reached out and turned off the infusion hose that had been dripping with the medicine, leaned over and took out the disinfectant cotton from the first aid kit, put it on the mouth of the bottle containing alcohol, and tilted the bottle, and then squatted on the side of the bed, carefully tore off the adhesive tape on my right hand, and gently pulled out the infusion needle while pressing the disinfectant cotton dipped in alcohol on the back of my hand.

His movements were not skillful, but he was very unhurried, and there was only a slight tingle on the back of his hand, and then he was surrounded by a cool touch.

Quite surprised, and a little embarrassed, I said again, trying to reach out and hold down the disinfectant cotton myself.

But Lu Xudong didn't mean to let go of his hand at all, he just pressed the back of my hand, his jaw tightened slightly, his face looked at me as usual, his tone was flat, and he couldn't hear the emotional ups and downs at all: "I boiled porridge, are you going out to eat, or will I bring it in for you?"

If I hadn't seen his ability to change his face, I'd probably think that all the hideous things I had before were all my dreams.

Either after a long night's sleep, my mood has calmed down, or because I am really hungry, I looked at the ceiling and replied woodenly: "Thank you, you can go out first, and I will eat by myself later." ”

Lu Xudong didn't speak, there was a subtle and gentle stroke on the back of his hand, it seemed that he gently wiped it with a disinfectant cotton, and then his moderate strength and the moist and slightly cool touch of the disinfectant cotton quickly disappeared from my senses.

He stood up, threw the contents of his hand into the trash can, glanced at me faintly, and then slowly removed the bottle that was no longer potion, threw the pipe into the trash can, and turned around to pack up the first aid kit.

I figured it was time for him to clean up and go out, and sat up slowly, only to see that he was still standing there.

I was a little nervous when I met his unwavering eyes, he wouldn't want to continue discussing the topic on the phone at noon, would he?

Fortunately, he didn't say anything, and when he saw me sitting up, he quickly strode out with his things in his hand.

I looked at his back a little distractedly, and then fell to the already half-filled garbage can, and my heart was mixed, and the feeling that could not be said to be sad or joyful really made people want to sigh!

The first thing I do when I get up is to go to the bathroom, since the last time my aunt came to be embarrassed in front of Lu Xudong, my high vigilance against my aunt's infiltration for several days seems to have extended to this month.

Luckily, I went to bed with an extended version of the tampon, so even though the whole sheet was full, it didn't get on my pants. Slightly relieved, I changed to a new one, put on my pants and got up, and when I pressed the flush button, I felt as if something was wrong.

I looked down at the clothes on my body in confusion, and when I walked to the washstand on tiptoe with my right foot to wash my hands, I looked at myself in the mirror, and finally realized that I was not wearing this pajama before!

Awkwardly went to the restaurant, Lu Xudong had already prepared two bowls of porridge, and he was sitting in the place where he usually sits, eating porridge with vegetables slowly.

I habitually glanced at the clock in the living room, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening, and I was still more or less surprised, "You...... It's not ...... yet. Dinner?"

Lu Xudong didn't raise his head, and neatly spit out two words: "Supper!"

My slightly throbbing mind suddenly sobered up a little more, even if it was really him who helped me change my clothes, it must be because I had sweated and soaked my clothes, wearing sweat-soaked clothes, even if I hung more water, I am afraid that the burn will be repeated.

He is simply doing his so-called duty to the "other half"!

After the events of last night and today's day, I really shouldn't have expectations for him, it's just that after such a long time together, emotions have already sprouted and taken root unconsciously, and now I want to erase them all, I'm afraid it will take time to adjust.

I smiled self-deprecatingly, moved to the side of the meal and sat down before Lu Xudong's urging eyes glanced over, and when I picked up the spoon, I thought about it, and said thank you again detached and polite.

He ignored it, only snorted coldly after a while.

I was choked in my chest, and I still couldn't help myself because his cold snort hurt slightly, so I had to swallow food hard while comforting myself in my heart, don't care, don't worry, take your time.

A bowl of white porridge in the stomach, hungry for a whole day before the stomach began to have a little sense, the decadent spirit seems to have recovered a lot, I got up and went to add another bowl, when I came back, I happened to meet Lu Xudong's slightly inquiring eyes, a little stunned for a while.

He curled the corners of his mouth, and a nonchalant look slowly appeared on his face, as if casually reminding me: "Don't eat too much at once!"

I was inexplicably impetuous, and I wanted to yell at him, but could you not hold me in the palm of your hand for a while, and step me into the mud for a while?!

But in the end, it was just a low "um", this time it was really not cowardice, it was just that people were under the roof, and the fever had just subsided, and the person was very tired, and he didn't want to provoke any more disputes, so he had to give in temporarily.

I scooped a tablespoon of porridge into my mouth, and the rice grains that were clearly sweet and delicious just now became difficult to swallow again.

Lu Xudong sat opposite and looked at me, his indifferent face was slightly displeased, and after a while, he suddenly got up and snatched the bowl and spoon from my hand, leaving only one sentence: "If you don't want to eat, don't force yourself to eat!" turned around and entered the kitchen.

Just now he told me not to eat more, and now I'm angry because I can't eat...... Thankfully, I was mentally prepared, and my confusion lasted only a few seconds, and I quickly calmed down again.

I got up and slowly tried to clean up the table, but Lu Xudong just poured out the white porridge I had eaten a few bites, and immediately came out again to grab the work I was about to do, and said in a very cold tone: "You go to rest, I'll clean up here!"

I would have been moved again, and in fact, even though his tone was so stiff, I couldn't really be as calm as water.

It's just that he has spread out the truth in front of me, and he really has ulterior motives for marrying me, and it is impossible for me to straighten him up, and besides, the cruel words have already been put out, and I really don't want to make myself more sad, so I simply obediently went back to the room.

I knew it wasn't useful to lock the door, so I just closed the door and threw myself on the bed for a while.

There was still chaos in my head, and even my thinking was a little dull, so I lay down for a while, and the exhaustion hit, and I quickly fell asleep again

Half-asleep and half-awake, as if someone approached, helped me move my position, and covered the blanket, I suspected that it was a dream, rolled up my body and moved in the blanket, and my consciousness sank into the darkness again.

This time, there is no dream until dawn.

When I opened my eyes, I reached out and touched my forehead in a daze, as if my hands were not hot at all, so I was relieved to get up to the bathroom and change my aunt's towel, and I was already a little more sober.

There was a rare sound of falling rain outside, and when I washed my hands, I took a handful of water and drenched my face, and then I went back to the bed to check the time with my mobile phone.

It's only six o'clock in the morning, and I slept heavily last night, and I'm a little refreshed at this moment, as if I don't look like a person who has just had a fever.

I raised my right foot and looked at the wound on the sole of my foot carefully, and then stretched out my finger and pressed it gently, as if it didn't hurt particularly anymore.

Then start submitting your resume and looking for a job! I secretly made up my mind that since no one can be relied on, I can only rely on myself.
