Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 22 She Has a Fever_1

Qi Cheng did not reply. He got up directly and went upstairs.

Bang, the bedroom door was violently pushed open by him. This was his room, and Ji Yunhuan was the first woman to stay in his room. Did she really take this place as her own territory?

He had been angry since the morning. At first, he simply didn’t want to pay attention to her. But later, not only did she not take the initiative to reconcile with him, she even went out for a stroll all day. When she came back, she didn’t even greet him, just went directly to the room to sleep.

No one dared to live comfortably when he was uncomfortable in his heart. She was the first.

He was determined to teach her a good lesson, to let her know that when he was angry, she would face such consequences.

Taming this woman, making her submit to him from the bottom of her heart, was his most desired thing to do.

He admired her pride but was determined to strip her of it.

Because of his appearance, the temperature in the room abruptly dropped a few degrees. The female housekeeper who followed him up carefully stood aside, not daring to speak.

However, Ji Yunhuan on the bed showed no sign of awareness. She buried herself in the quilt, not even showing her head.

He made a lot of noise. He didn’t believe she couldn’t hear him. But she... she actually so arrogantly ignored him!

He took a few steps to the bed, waved his big hand, and lifted the quilt, seeing her curled up like a boiled shrimp on the big bed.

This was the fetal position, an extremely insecure sleeping posture...

Seeing her like this made it hard to relate her to the usually cold and arrogant woman.

Qi Cheng never expected, even after he had gone to such lengths, she could still pretend to sleep so calmly. Her mental fortitude was indeed impressive, almost comparable to his. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

The bed was large. She was lying in the center. He knelt on one knee, reached out, grabbed her arm, and pulled her up from the bed...

But she didn’t wake up as he expected.

She fell softly into his arms like a ragdoll. He was surprised, only then noticing that her face was unnaturally red. Leaning against his chest, he could feel her abnormal fever through the shirt.

He reached out to feel her face and forehead. The anger in his face quickly turned to tension, his voice turning cold, "Why didn’t you tell me she had a fever?"

The female housekeeper was taken aback, "I didn’t notice."

"Go get the doctor!" Qi Cheng said angrily.

Looking at the drowsy Ji Yunhuan, he placed her back on the pillow and pulled the quilt over her.

After the female housekeeper went out, only he and she were left in the room. Her sleeping appearance was very quiet, but because of the fever, her breathing was extremely rapid.

He leaned his forehead against hers, feeling her abnormal body temperature. It was this heat that dispelled the raging anger in his heart.

Apart from the fact that she was loved by Su Molang, she had done nothing wrong.

In fact, he was the one who owed her the most.

He had deprived her of everything, causing her to live the most miserable life for five years. But now...

The doctor soon arrived and confirmed that Ji Yunhuan’s fever was caused by a cold. An IV was administered.

The female housekeeper, seeing that Qi Cheng was still standing by, said with concern: "Sir, you haven’t had dinner yet. Go have a meal first! I will take care of Madam here."

Qi Cheng looked at the quiet Ji Yunhuan on the bed and sat down, "No need, I’ll watch over her here."

"But Ms. Xie is still waiting for you."

"Let her eat by herself." Qi Cheng had no mind for other women now.

He never loved any woman. To him, women were more like possessions. He liked watching those women with strong personalities gradually lose themselves because of him, and he was also willing to give a lifeline to those women in despair because of him.

He didn’t love Xie Xingwei either, so he wouldn’t care about her.

However, with such thoughts, he was still hungry while watching over Ji Yunhuan until very late.

Halfway through the IV, she finally woke up. She opened her eyes, instinctively wanting to move, but was quickly stopped by Qi Cheng grabbing her hands, "Don’t move, you’re on an IV."

She looked at the IV stand beside her and restrained her urge to move, glancing at Qi Cheng’s tense face with some surprise.

She didn’t speak, just leaned against the pillow, observing him.

Feeling uneasy under her gaze, Qi Cheng sat back, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

She closed her eyes, saying indifferently: "Maybe I haven’t fully woken up. I’ll sleep a little longer."

Otherwise, how could she see him caring for her here? Logic dictated that he should be with his beauty, whispering sweet nothings.

"Have you not slept enough after all this time?" There was a kind of restrained gentleness in his voice.

Ji Yunhuan opened her eyes and carefully prepared to sit up. Qi Cheng helped her. She looked at him and coldly said, "Thank you."

She was ready to get out of bed.

"Didn’t I tell you not to move?" Seeing her so disobedient, he felt a bit annoyed.

"I didn’t want to move either, but I have no choice." She sat up and started looking for her shoes. Because they were far away, she stretched her leg out, wanting to hook them over carefully. Seeing her cautious movements, Qi Cheng understood she wasn’t doing it to annoy him and helped her.

Watching her put on her slippers, he stood by and observed her.

Ji Yunhuan reached out to grab the IV stand, but Qi Cheng was already a step ahead, "I’ll do it for you."

"You know what I want to do?" Ji Yunhuan thought he was being overly attentive.

Qi Cheng just cast a cold glance at her, then saw through her intentions, "You just want to go to the bathroom, right? What else can you do?"

Ji Yunhuan, whose thoughts were seen through, felt a bit embarrassed. Having been under the IV for two hours, her bladder was full. She was woken up by the urgency. Helplessly looking at Qi Cheng, she asked, "Do you want to follow me to the bathroom as well?"

"Otherwise?" He looked at her matter-of-factly.

She inexplicably didn’t want him to follow her to the bathroom, "Call the housekeeper for me."

"If you don’t go, then lie back down." His dominance left Ji Yunhuan with no choice but to compromise.

In the bathroom, he placed the IV stand aside. Seeing that she hadn’t made a move, he worriedly asked, "Is your hand inconvenient? Should I help you take off your pants?"

One hand holding the IV, Ji Yunhuan could only use the other hand to take off her pants. He rendered her speechless. She had never intended to let him help. "It’s inconvenient with you here. Just get out."

She was almost dying of the urgency!

Qi Cheng looked at her, not making it difficult for her. The toilet in the bathroom was separated, with a frosted door in between. He backed out, closing the sliding door.

Ji Yunhuan, looking at his turned back, couldn’t be bothered to argue further. She lifted her skirt, took off her underwear, and sat on the toilet...
