As the crowd dispersed, Qin Yuji’s face, watching Mr.
Feng being carried out horizontally by people, was still somewhat pale.
She didn’t dare to imagine what would have happened if he hadn’t shown up.
Even though the vice-president had appeared, his presence only seemed to hasten her delivery to Mr.
Feng’s bed.
“Come here…”
The low and familiar voice rang out, and Qin Yuji looked up to see Chi Jingxuan glaring at her with a face full of indignation.
Her cheeks still bore the glistening tears, while her right hand, not yet fully healed from a burn, was now reddened and slightly furrowed her brows unconsciously as she gently stroked it.
Chi Jingxuan felt that his earlier handling of the situation might have been too lenient.
For a moment, he felt somewhat self-reproachful.
He really should have taken her away directly, after wasting an entire night, they had still ended up in this mess.
“Come here…”
Seeing her somewhat dazed, not knowing if she was scared or hadn’t heard him, Chi Jingxuan called out again.
Qin Yuji felt a chill in her heart.
Having escaped from one Mr.
Feng, there was another man in front of her, dignified to the point where it seemed no one dared to provoke him.
Was it her destiny to never escape?
“I’ll go change my clothes…”
After calling out, Qin Yuji turned and headed towards the changing room.
After slowly changing her clothes and coming out, the vast second floor was already empty.
He should have left, right?
With a sigh of relief as if a burden had been lifted, Qin Yuji’s heart was nevertheless not at ease.
Golden Age, Fleeting Years, it seemed wherever she went, she could encounter him.
She managed to avoid him this time, but could she do it again next time?
When would such days ever end?
Thinking that she had only saved a little more than three thousand yuan, still far from enough, Qin Yuji felt somewhat despondent.
She exited Golden Age through the staff passage and saw, in front of the grand entrance, Chi Jingxuan in the driver’s seat of the black Maybach, looking somewhat impatient.
Involuntarily trembling slightly, Qin Yuji stepped forward, slid into the open car door, and settled into the passenger seat.
Without a word all along the way, half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the villa.
Turning his head to look, the little woman had already fallen asleep, but even in her sleep, her brows were tightly furrowed, as if bearing an unbearable sorrow.
Reaching out to smooth her brow, Chi Jingxuan’s hand had just neared her forehead when he felt a wave of heat emanate from it.
Upon touching, indeed, her forehead was burning hot, even hotter than the night she was drenched by rain.
She had clearly passed out from a fever.
No wonder her face had been flushed all this time, and during the evening in the private room, she continuously shrank back.
He had thought she was unwilling to come near him, but now it seemed she may have wanted to stay away from the air conditioner in the corner of the room.
Hurriedly getting out of the car, Chi Jingxuan carried her into the room and made a phone call.
A few minutes later, his personal doctor, Ruan Xu, arrived.
After an injection, Qin Yuji’s complexion returned to normal, and her temperature was not as high as before.
Looking around and not seeing any of the villa’s servants, Ruan Xu hesitated but still took care to instruct, “Fever tends to recur, especially at night when it can be quite severe.
Instruct the servant to take her temperature every so often, and if she has a high fever, use alcohol to wipe her palms and body, which will make her feel more comfortable…”
After seeing off Ruan Xu, Chi Jingxuan sat by the bed, touched Qin Yuji’s palm.
Her hand was soft and warm.
The elders always said that such girls have the softest hearts.
As he stood up intending to leave, planning to call Sister Li to look after her for the night, Chi Jingxuan was just about to get up when his hand was grabbed by her.
“Mom, don’t leave me…”
“Why don’t you want me, why…”
Her low murmurs, so clear in the quiet room, froze Chi Jingxuan in place, and he could feel his entire back tensing up.
It turned out, she and he, they, were the same kind of people.
