He covered her with a blanket. After her body was sweating all over, her fever began to recede quickly.

He got a bowl of hot water, dipped a towel into it and wrung it out before using it to wipe the sweat off her body. Once she was clean, he helped her change into a clean set of clothes.

Xu Xiyan no longer had a high fever, finally falling asleep quietly. Huo Yunshen held her hand as he silently stayed by her side.

He knew what he was doing was wrong and that he had to let her go eventually. For now, however, he chose to look away from the truth by telling himself: just a little longer, just one more minute…

He watched over her for the whole night. When it was close to dawn, he left her apartment reluctantly.

The sky had turned bright outside. Xu Xiyan woke up and her head was no longer aching. Her mind was a lot less foggy now and her body no longer ached as much. Other than a stuffy nose, the other symptoms of her cold had been alleviated.

She sat up and noticed that she was wearing her pajamas. If she remembered correctly, she didn’t seem to have taken a bath changed clothes yesterday.

So how had she changed into her pajamas?

She turned around and saw a box of cold medicine on the bedside table.

Xu Xiyan picked up the medicine box and examined it. This medicine… looked a lot like the one she had bought for Huo Yunshen when he had been seriously ill.

A thought occurred to her. Xu Xiyan rushed out of her bed and ran out of the bedroom barefooted, in too much of a hurry to put on her shoes.

“Mr. Huo… Mr. Huo…”

She searched the whole room but he was nowhere to be found. She went through the crystal closet door to his apartment, but still didn’t see anyone.

Xu Xiyan sighed. She was missing him so badly now that she was beginning to hallucinate and lose her mind.

…

In the next few days, Xu Xiyan went to the set for her shoot during the daytime. After that, she went to the hospital to visit her grandfather.

In the hospital, Xu Xiyan b.u.mped into Xu Jinshan and Su Rui. Xu Jinshan still had an arm-sling around his neck. Su Rui’s injuries, on the other hand, were not as serious; she was accompanying her husband to the x-ray room.

When they came face-to-face with Xu Xiyan, Xu Jinshan and Su Rui almost jumped out of their skin. They could not help but take a few steps back, fear showing in their eyes.
