Forty-Four

"Lu Feng?"

Shen Zechen called out to Lu Feng a few more times, but Lu Feng did not reply. When Shen Zechen turned Lu Feng over, he saw that Lu Feng's face was flushed red and was gasping for air.

Shen Zechen anxiously extended his hand out towards Lu Feng's forehead. It was boiling hot, the temperature seemed to want to burn Lu Feng's body, Shen Zechen could not help but be shocked.

"Why is it so hot?"

Shen Zechen frowned, then retracted his hand, "Lu Feng, wake up, I'll take you to the hospital."

Lu Feng dazedly stretched out his hand and grabbed onto Shen Zechen's hand. He was unsure if he was awake or not as Lu Feng mumbled, "No need … I'll take some medicine... "It's just a small ailment …"

"He's already been burned to this state, how can he still have any small ailments?"

Shen Zechen was angered to the point that his face turned green, but when he looked at Lu Feng's appearance, he could not do anything about it, and his eyes landed on the medicine and bread on the table. Shen Zechen bent down to open the bag and rummaged through it, and only bought the cold medicine, but did not have any medicine to treat his fever.

"Why wouldn't he take good care of himself?"

Shen Zechen turned around, and looked at Lu Feng with a pained heart, then walked towards the bathroom, used a clean towel to dry off some cold water, and placed it on Lu Feng's burning hot forehead.

Perhaps because the towel was ice-cold, Lu Feng felt a lot more comfortable. The pained expression on his face gradually disappeared, and he fell into a deep sleep.

After Shen Zechen searched for a while, he just happened to have finished eating all the medicines at home. He then looked at Lu Feng who was lying on the sofa, and walked over.

"Sleep well, I'll go buy you some medicine."

Shen Zechen bent over, and her ice-cold fingers lightly caressed Lu Feng's burning cheeks. Lu Feng let out a light snort.

"Don't run around. Wait for me to come back."

Slowly retracting his hand, Shen Zechen got up and left.

When the door closed, Lu Feng who was lying on the sofa opened his eyes in a daze. Then, he saw Shen Zechen's figure disappearing into the door, so he closed his eyes again.

When Shen Zechen finished buying the medicine, it was already very late and he was still sleeping. Shen Zechen let out a sigh of relief.

After putting down the medicine, Shen Zechen changed Lu Feng into another towel to apply it. He poured himself a cup of warm water and took out the medicine according to the shop owner's instructions. Just as Shen Zechen was about to take the medicine and feed it to Lu Feng, he suddenly got up from the sofa.

"What's wrong?"

Shen Zechen anxiously carried the water and walked over.

"Thirsty …"

Lu Feng said.

"Come, have some water and eat the medicine."

Shen Zechen gave the medicine and water to Lu Feng.

When Lu Feng took the medicine, he half-opened his eyes, and directly stuffed all the medicine into his mouth. When Shen Zechen did not stop him from doing so, he choked on the medicine until he coughed, and then spat out all the medicine.

"Why are you so careless? Have some water. " Shen Zechen patted Lu Feng's back, and immediately brought him a cup of water to drink.

After that, Shen Zechen went to prepare more medicine and ate them one by one. After seeing Lu Feng finish eating the medicine, Shen Zechen felt a lot more at ease.

After consuming the medicine, Lu Feng went back to sleep. Shen Zechen was not at ease, he stayed by Lu Feng's side the whole night.

Lu Feng repeated it over and over again during the night. It wasn't long before it finally started to burn again, which frightened Shen Zechen quite a bit.

Shen Zechen was afraid of waking Lu Feng up, so he only lit up a small lamp, and the weak light shone onto Shen Zechen who was sitting on the sofa. Shen Zechen quietly looked at Lu Feng who was finally sleeping soundly, and with a sigh of relief, he lowered his head and rubbed his forehead.

"Ugh …"

Lu Feng suddenly snorted.

"What's wrong?"

Shen Zechen subconsciously raised his head. He thought that something had happened to Lu Feng, but when he saw that Lu Feng had only managed to roll over and continue sleeping, he couldn't help but sigh.

"I really have to worry about the dead …"

Shen Zechen leaned back, and looked at the unlit lamp, his eyebrows slowly knitted, not knowing when it started, but Shen Zechen felt like his eyes were locked onto him, and he was unable to leave Lu Feng's side even for a second.

He must be really crazy …

Thinking about it, Shen Zechen laughed bitterly.

Early morning of the second day, Lu Feng slowly opened his eyes and woke up.

What entered his sight was the ceiling of the living room. Lu Feng was startled, and then, he smelled a faint fragrance of porridge.

Lu Feng sat up on the sofa with a grunt. The towel that was originally on his forehead slipped and fell onto Lu Feng's body.

"You're awake?"

Shen Zechen turned off the fire and walked towards Lu Feng.

"Yes."

Lu Feng nodded.

"How is it? Are you feeling better? "

Once Shen Zechen arrived in front of Lu Feng, he bent down and gently placed his hand on Lu Feng's forehead and said softly.

Shen Zechen's hands were ice-cold. For some reason, Lu Feng always felt that it was very comfortable to cover his forehead.

"No more fever."

When Shen Zechen withdrew his hand, he ruffled up Lu Feng's hair before turning around and returning to the kitchen, "I've helped you request a leave of absence. Come over and eat something first, don't go to work today."

"Oh, thank you."

Lu Feng inexplicably felt that after the hand left, his heart was empty. He raised his head to look at Shen Zechen's tall and straight back, and felt his heart become even weirder.
