BXBX NOVEL Chapter 474: Fever
" Ke Xin, Mammy An we need to go back to the sea and catch some more crabs," after returning home, Yu Dong placed the bucket of meat on the table before turning to look at Fang Chi. " Did Xiao Hua wake up?"
Fang Chi was cooking rice in the kitchen when he heard Yu Dong\'s question, he shook his head and with a worried glance said, " He seemed to have been scared a bit too much, I just went to see him a few minutes ago, he seemed to have developed a high fever, his entire body is burning and he was rolling around the entire bed, I wiped and changed his clothes since they were drenched in sweat but it didn\'t help much. I called for the village doctor but she isn\'t here, she went to see someone in the next village."
Yu Dong frowned, she handed the meat to mammy An to clean before she walked to Fang Chi\'s room where Xiao Hua was sleeping as she went inside and took a glimpse of Xiao Hua\'s flushed face, her brows scrunched up even more. When she went to the mers\' house, though Xiao Hua was a bit flustered he didn\'t show any sign of being this scared, that was why she took it for granted that he was fine but in the end, he was just a weak mer, how in the world would he be fine after seeing a dead body lying on the threshold of his house?
With a heavy sigh, she stepped inside the room and walked toward Xiao Hua, who was still lying unconscious on the bed. Raising her hand she took carefully pressed the back of her hand on his forehead. His forehead was burning and from the looks of it his fever was going to get even worse if it doesn\'t get treated on time, there was no way she could wait for the doctor to come back from the next village. Yu Dong placed her hand in the sleeves and then took out the fever medicine that she has stored in her space before popping one pill out of the packet and mixing it with water in the cup sitting on the cabinet next to the bed.
However, after she was done —— she looked at the unconscious Xiao Hua and then the cup with medicine water in it. So, how was she going to make him drink this?
Yu Dong first tried the simple method of raising the head and pouring the water right in but as she tried to do it, Xiao Hua moved his head stuttering, " No," that was how her first plan failed. The second plan was to spoon-feed him but as she placed the spoon against his lips, Xiao Hua simply closed his lips to the point that she couldn\'t even pour a single drop inside his mouth…in the end, there was only one option left and that was…
She crouched next to the bed and brought the cup to her lips before taking a sip of the bitter medicine and clasped Xiao Hua\'s face before pressing her lips against his, of course, he struggled a lot. His hands slapped against her shoulders as he tried to push her away from him and when he saw that it wasn\'t working he dug his nails in her skin causing Yu Dong to scrunch up her brows before she thrust her tongue out and parted his lips…but even so, the mer was bent on making trouble with her, he clenched his teeth tighter than ever as he thrashed his legs in the bed.
Worried that he will hurt himself by making such a ruckus and even more anxious about attracting Fang Chi\'s attention, she pinched Xiao Hua\'s nose. Two seconds later, he gasped and Yu Dong took her chance as she poured the entire medicine inside his mouth and pulled back. A relieved sigh escaped her lips but no sooner did she do that, Xiao Hua raised his hand and slapped her across the face with his expression scrunched up in disgust. " Damn you …you stalker…"
Ah, so he thought that she was a stalker.
Yu Dong shook her head and rubbed the spot that was slapped by him and stood up from her spot before heading out of the room as she rolled the sleeves of her shirt.
" I will prepare the meal before leaving to catch crabs and fish," she said to Fang Chi then turning her head to Mammy An she asked, " Did you buy the ration?"
Mammy An nodded and said, " The shopkeepers were surprised, however, we told them that we run a bar, so they didn\'t ask anything further but we bought ration for at least three months or even more, but Miss Yu don\'t you think that the ration will go bad in the next three months?"
" You don\'t have to worry about that, I have an idea to keep the ration as fresh as possible." With her space, she didn\'t have to worry about the freshness of the ration, with all the things in her space, she will be able to maintain the freshness of the food anyway. " Tonight leave the village through the path that no one uses and bring the ration to my house, I will put it all away and as for the mers, ask them all to return to the village as well, we will be shutting down the bar for a few weeks."
