Why did she suddenly get a fever?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he hung up the drip to reduce her fever, Qin Sijue stood beside the bed with a cold expression, clearly harboring some resentment towards Li Yuan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The air conditioning in the room was set too low!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a joke! If Sijue knew that the fever was caused by an infection at the wound site, his hospital would turn into his firing range!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…” Qin Sijue’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, filled with suspicion, but ultimately he remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, the fever is subsiding, she should be fine now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t leave tonight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan was packing up, planning to leave, but then he heard Qin Sijue suddenly speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head, a look of surprise in his eyes, “Sleep here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mhm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan stared at him, trying to detect any hint in his stoic face, but in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did this woman really not know him for even a day?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then where do I sleep?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Living room, on the sofa.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan was instantly dissatisfied, “Hey, is this how you treat the man who saved your woman—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, Qin Sijue shot him a look, and Li Yuan immediately left the room with the medical kit in silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night grew deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the woman sleeping soundly on the bed, a few seconds later, Qin Sijue also turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, Gu Qiangwei slept very peacefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she woke the next day, her fever had subsided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, everything Gu Shijie had done to her wrapped around her like a nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t… let me go… let go…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Get away!
