Chapter 60
Staying by His Side for the Entire Night?
“Don’t worry, I’m not interested in you at all!” Tong Lu said angrily.
Tong Lu shoved two pills into his mouth and sat down by the bed. She lifted his head with difficulty and handed him a glass of water. Her tone of voice was stern and fierce. “Drink some water to swallow the medicine now!”
She did not want to come back into this room at all, but she could not bear to leave him like this. After all, when she was detained and accused of assaulting the British prime minister, Leng Yejin had given her the warmth she needed.
She must be grateful and return the favor!
Leng Yejin’s pale lips turned down. His voice was weak but dangerous. “You’re getting bolder by the day! How dare you order me around?”
Her tone of voice was the same when she forced him to put on the pink dress. It instantly evoked that infuriating memory!
“Take the pills then. If you don’t, I’ll grind the pills into powder and force it down your throat. Do not doubt my force-feeding skills. When Shanshan was young, she often cried and threw a tantrum so that she did not have to take medicine. But I always managed to make her take them. Do you want to try it?”
Tong Lu blinked. She had mustered her courage to say those things. She gazed at his face with concern.
Two hours had passed. His body temperature was still forty-two degrees Celsius. If this kept going on, she worried that he would suffer from brain damage.
Hearing what Tong Lu said, Leng Yejin’s eyes widened. He glared at the blurry silhouette before him with fiery eyes. ‘This woman dares to threaten me again and again? Just you wait. I’ll deal with you the next morning!’
He sat up with difficulty. His mouth was awfully dry. He grabbed the glass of water and finished it along with the fever medicine.
Leng Yejin told himself that he was just thirsty. It was certainly not because of this woman’s childish threat!
Tong Lu watched him swallow the fever medicine and was secretly relieved. She helped him lie back down.
Leng Yejin nudged her away coldly. There was a weary look on his face.
Tong Lu poured him another glass of hot water and set it aside to let it cool.
She sat down by the bed. “Why don’t we go to the hospital or give Dr. Ji a call?”
“There’s no need for that. I know how to deal with this myself!”
His pale lips turned down once again. To him, it was just a high fever. It was no big deal. He had suffered all kinds of serious injuries. Apart from what happened in the Bermuda Triangle, when he was growing up —’Well, never mind that.’ He was already physically indestructible. There was no need to think about the past.
“The fever must’ve messed with your head. You have no idea how to deal with this situation. Do you know what 42 degree Celsius means? It’s like the cells in your whole body are boiling and bubbling like boiling water, do you know that?”
“Shut up! You’re loud and noisy!” Leng Yejin rolled over to face her. His words were sharp. She could do whatever she wanted because he did not care anymore. “You come to me in the middle of the night and do all these things for me. Aren’t you trying to get on my good side? Don’t trouble yourself. If you want to f*ck me, do it. Remember to keep me updated afterwards!”
Tong Lu felt as though her head was blown up. Her eyebrows were scrunched up. She grumbled sullenly, “You’re having a fever. I won’t argue with you for now.”
Leng Yejin narrowed his eyes. He sounded breathless. “Is that right? You’ve run into my room in the middle of night. Aren’t you reminiscing about the s*x we had, twice?”
Tong Lu’s face turned completely red. “What are you saying? I don’t remember anything at all!”
“You really don’t remember?” Leng Yejin gazed at her for a moment. He suddenly pressed his lips together and gave her a half-smile. His voice was deep and lustful. “I, on the other hand, remember those instances very well. Every single detail.”
Tong Lu’s head was spinning. She gritted her teeth furiously and recalled every single detail on the night she took the aphrodisiac by mistake. Utterly embarrassed, she grabbed the wet towel on his forehead and ran out of his room.
This man was simply awful, taking her kindness for an ulterior motive!
“He deserves to have his brain fried!”
