The next morning, just as dawn broke.
I turned my head to look at Zhu Jiajia lying naked beside me.
At this moment, I, a "Chunan" who had kept himself pure for over twenty years and had never even held a girl's hand, still felt that everything last night was like an absurd dream.
But the soreness in my body, especially the waves of exhaustion from my lower back, reminded me: it was all real.
Zhu Jiajia's performance last night completely overturned my worldview.
She wasn't some innocent school beauty; her skilled techniques were exactly like the rumors on the forums.
The shock from that contrast almost made my soul fly out of this shabby room.
I carefully picked up my clothes from the floor and got dressed, planning to sneak back to school before it got too bright.
"Zhou Peiyu... are you leaving already?"
A cold hand suddenly reached out from under the covers and grabbed me.
I turned back, and Zhu Jiajia was already awake.
She propped herself up slightly, the slipping sheet unable to hide her stunning curves.
I nodded, "Last night was too much... my body can't take it. I have an early class at eight, you stay here."
"No, can't you stay..." Zhu Jiajia suddenly sat up and hugged me from behind.
Her body trembled, "I'm scared, I'm really scared that Yang Likai will come after me again, he's a madman, he won't let me go."
I sighed helplessly, turning to look at her tear-streaked face, and asked, "Why is Yang Likai after you?"
Zhu Jiajia's eyes flickered, she stammered, lowering her head, her voice barely audible, "It's just... Yang Likai has been chasing me for a long time, and I didn't agree, so he got furious. Last night he was drunk and insisted on taking me to that kind of place..."
I stared into her eyes for two seconds, sneering inwardly.
This woman was lying.
The photos on the forum were crystal clear, yet she was still playing the innocent victim.
But I had no interest in exposing her now; I had already taken enough advantage last night, there was no need to rub salt in the wound.
"Alright, don't overthink it. I really have to go." I pried her hands off, intending to stand up.
"I won't let you go!" Zhu Jiajia panicked, shamelessly kneeling on the bed, hugging my waist, and started untying the belt I had just fastened.
"Zhou Peiyu, I'm begging you... just stay, I'll do anything if you stay..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she lowered her head, and my intention to leave was instantly thrown out the window.
Who could resist this? Damn, she's the school beauty!
I closed my eyes, tilting my head back, deciding to skip the early class, the teacher might not even take attendance anyway.
However, just as I started to enjoy myself.
Zhu Jiajia, for some reason, suddenly started vomiting.
A yellow liquid mixed with undigested food and mucus splattered onto my thigh and stomach.
"Shit!"
That disgusted me to no end.
Looking down, the scene was unbearable, the viscous liquid sticking to me, reeking terribly.
I hurriedly grabbed some tissues from the bedside to wipe it off, "What the hell is wrong with you?!"
Zhu Jiajia couldn't answer me, she was bent over the bed, vomiting violently.
The yellow-green liquid covered the floor, the smell quickly fermenting in the small room.
As I wiped my body, I wondered: could it be that the drug I tested yesterday made me this strong? Thinking of this, my anger subsided a bit, and seeing her in such pain, I forced myself to go over and pat her back, enduring the stench.
"Hey, are you okay? Did your stomach get cold?"
Unexpectedly, she vomited a lot, and soon the carpet was soaked with vomit. I covered my nose helplessly, praying for this disgusting scene to end quickly.
As Zhu Jiajia emptied her stomach, she collapsed on the bed edge, her chest heaving violently, dry heaving continuously.
I thought she was done and was about to get a glass of warm water when Zhu Jiajia suddenly stiffened, the veins on her neck bulging.
"Blagh—!"
A mouthful of thick, bright red blood sprayed from her mouth onto the mess on the floor.
I was completely shocked. Vomiting blood?Damn it, This definitely wasn't a regular stomach issue!
Zhu Jiajia's complexion turned from pale to ashen, her eyes beginning to lose focus.
I realized things were serious; if she died in the hotel, my life would be over.
"Zhu Jiajia! Zhu Jiajia, wake up!"
Ignoring my disgust, I grabbed my long autumn coat from the side, hastily draping it over her naked body.
Since I'm quite tall, the coat covered her down to her thighs.
I carried her on my back and fled the hotel.
The cold early morning wind cleared my head a bit. I thought about going to a clinic, but as soon as I took two steps towards the commercial street, I stopped.
The clinics there were too shady! The Jingyang Branch Campus was ridiculously remote, and the clinic on the commercial street practically had a monopoly, charging over two hundred for cold medicine. The money I had left was for next month's meals and tuition.
After some thought, I gritted my teeth and ran back towards the campus with Zhu Jiajia on my back.
It was still early, around six in the morning, and the campus was shrouded in a thin mist. Apart from the occasional old professor heading to the track for morning exercise, there were hardly any students.
I jogged all the way, feeling the abnormal heat from Zhu Jiajia's fever through the coat.
"Hang in there, we're almost at the infirmary!"
Finally reaching the infirmary, the door was still closed.
I banged on it like a madman, the wooden door rattling loudly.
"Who is it? So early in the morning!" came a lazy and annoyed female voice from inside.
"Doctor! Help! My classmate is sick, she's vomiting blood!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.
The door opened.
A mature woman with fair skin and a beautiful face, wearing a silk robe, appeared at the door.
She was Doctor Park from the infirmary, Park the beauty, the fantasy of many male students at school.
"Doctor Park, please, you have to help her!" I was sweating profusely with anxiety.
Seeing Zhu Jiajia's half-dead state, the laziness in Doctor Park's eyes vanished instantly. She stepped aside, signaling me to bring her in quickly.
I laid Zhu Jiajia on the infirmary's simple bed. She was breathing rapidly, her face flushed, and strange ulcerated red spots were faintly appearing on her cheeks and neck.
Doctor Park calmly put on her white coat and glasses, but as she approached and saw Zhu Jiajia's condition, she immediately tensed up.
"Wait, don't move her." Doctor Park's voice turned unusually serious.
She quickly donned rubber gloves and a medical protective mask, even putting on a face shield. This cautious stance made my heart skip a beat.
Doctor Park flipped Zhu Jiajia's eyelids, examined the ulcerated red spots on her body, then used a tongue depressor to force open Zhu Jiajia's mouth.
"Ugh—" Zhu Jiajia let out another hoarse groan.
Frowning, Doctor Park used a cotton swab to extract some fluid samples from Zhu Jiajia's oral mucosa and the bleeding ulcers, then briskly moved to the microscope, efficiently preparing the slides.
After a full ten minutes, Doctor Park finally raised her head slowly.
She removed her glasses, pointing at the image in the microscope, "This is very strange. Based on the symptoms, these rashes, ulcers, and lymph node swelling on her body are completely consistent with the characteristics of secondary or even tertiary syphilis, but..."
"Syphilis?" I was stunned, "Damn, syphilis?!Damn it... Zhu Jiajia has syphilis?!"
I recalled the wild moments from last night, the vomit she sprayed on me earlier, and felt my lower body go cold.
"Don't shout." Doctor Park shot me a cold glance, "If it were just syphilis, it would be manageable. But the strange part is here, I found some syphilis spirochetes in her samples, but more of them are a kind of highly active mutant cells I've never seen before. They're rapidly devouring her tissues, a speed that syphilis alone couldn't achieve."
"This might be a 'Super Syphilis' catalyzed by some kind of deadly virus."
