“Still uncomfortable?” He sat back down by the bed, one arm pulling her into his embrace, touching her head.
Ji Nuan shook her head, slanting down in his embrace dependently. “It’s much better.”
Auntie Chen was unable to stop worrying the whole time. She passed their door in the middle of the night and heard that there were movements. She rushed off to serve up some porridge.
“Mr. Mo, it’s already so late. I’ll feed Madam some porridge. Her fever was serious, so she needs to eat some food.”
Mo Jingshen used his free hand to take the bowl from her. “No need. I’ll do it.”
Auntie Chen was surprised. Ever since Ji Nuan had a fever, he never left her side by a single inch. It seemed like this little couple that previously treated each other like strangers were really going to begin their happy life from now on.
Auntie Chen smiled and stopped disturbing them. She quickly left the room and gently closed the door.
Ji Nuan caught the scent of the white porridge. There seemed to be some minced meat inside, and it was extremely fragrant. She immediately glanced inside the bowl. The moment she saw it, she became even more hungry.
Mo Jingshen removed his hand from hers. With one arm he tugged on her shoulder, helping her to sit up and lean in his embrace.
Although Ji Nuan was no longer as dizzy, she still felt rather weak. She laid against his chest limply; her forehead pressed under his chin.
Her eyes remained fixed on the porridge in the bowl like a kitten begging for her owner to throw some food her way.
At the same time, she could feel his gentle breathing land on her forehead.
It was a heart-melting sensation.
Mo Jingshen brought a spoonful of porridge to her lips. “Open your mouth.”
This time, Ji Nuan was very obedient and listened to him. When she swallowed, she felt like her taste buds had been awoken. It was so fragrant.
Seeing that she was willing to eat and was eating happily as though her appetite had opened up, Mo Jingshen chuckled softly. Bite by bite, he fed the entire bowl to her.
Ji Nuan laid back down on the bed feeling well-fed and enjoying the care of Mo Jingshen.
“My whole body is covered in sweat. Can I shower again?” she asked in a soft voice.
“Your fever hasn’t completely gone down. Shower tomorrow morning.”
“But my whole body is so wet and sticky that it’s difficult to bear…”
“Bear with it for a night.” He did not give in to her and turned off the light, leaving on only the bedside lamp yellow light. “Sleep for a few more hours. When the sun rises tomorrow, we’ll measure your temperature again.”
Mo Jingshen laid down by her side. Ji Nuan began pushing herself into his body until his arms were around her in an embrace. His hand patted her back gently to coax her to sleep. Ji Nuan pressed her head against his shoulder, whispering, “Earlier on, you carried me out of the bathtub so directly…”
Mo Jingshen did not speak.
She spoke dazedly again, “You’ve already seen me completely. Then it shouldn’t be too much for you to bring me to wash again. I didn’t even complain about it earlier.”
Mo Jingshen: “…”
—-
At last, because Ji Nuan was a clean freak who could not sleep until she showered, her insistence finally led Mo Jingshen to bring her to shower again.
