Chapter 40 - I Never Took You For A Jealous Type (1/2)
There is an ancient saying, 'If heaven made him, Earth can find some use for him.'
And our Ye Jun believes that as the Heaven bestowed him as the youngest one in the family, the notable usage that the Earth actuate for him is to annoy his elder brother as much as he can.
By the time, Xu Mey came downstairs, Ye Jun had already eaten most of the food. There was barely anything left on the table. She was dressed in her usual jeans and a turtleneck shirt. She watched as Ye Jun was immersed in devouring the food.
She wasn't paying much attention before but now that she noticed Ye Jun, she realized something was odd about him. His nose was bright red and he was sniffling after a period of time. He placed his chopsticks on the table and rubbed his neck and stretching his stiff muscles. After that, he again picked up his chopsticks to eat. Even though it was early spring but there was still a chill in the air but Ye Jun was barely wearing anything.
She walked up to his eating figure and placed her hand on his forehead intending to take his temperature. Ye Jun feeling her cold hands raised his head to look at her. She was deep in thought. "You have a fever, Jun." Ye Jun quirked his brows and placed his own hand over the forehead where Xu Mey's hand had been a moment ago. "Why are you wearing so little?"
Xu Mey ran up the stairs and brought him thick clothes to wear. "Hurry up and change into these clothes." She ordered him as she pulled him away from the food and pushed him up the stairs. She asked the maid to bring the medicine box. And she herself walked into the now clean kitchen to make some Ginger tea for him.
She brought the ginger tea and medicine to the guest room upstairs. Ye Jun was walking out of the room at that time when he heard her distressed voice. "Go back inside." Ye Jun frowned in confusion. "You're not allowed to leave the bedroom today."
She pulled him back inside the room and made him recline on the bed. Ye Jun was awfully quiet. He was constantly staring at her face with a weird glint in his eyes. Xu Mey gave him two tablets for fever and painkillers to ease his muscles. She also made him drink the ginger tea right in front of her. He obediently listened to her.
"Don't move. Rest for the day otherwise your fever can get worse." Ye Jun nodded his head with a faint smile.
Satisfied with his response, Xu Mey turned to leave when she saw Ye Jie leaning against the door frame. When Ye Jie saw her taking care of Ye Jun he felt really good. She gave the vibes of a caring mother which was amusing to Ye Jie.
Xu Mey cleared her throat inconspicuously, lowered her head and took a step ahead intending to walk past him. But Ye Jie had other ideas in mind.
He stood in her way not letting her leave. Xu Mey didn't look up instead moved to the other side but Ye Jie did the same thing again. He was being childish. Xu Mey raised her head to glare at him but the moment her eyes fell on his clean face and that killer jawline, she raised her head further up avoiding his eyes.
Ye Jie frowned when she avoided looking at him. And just like that his competitive side took over. Taking advantage of his tall height, he tried to make her look at him. Xu Mey, in turn, lowered her head. Ye Jie bent down making his face appear in front of her eyes.
Thinking about how to deal with this childish husband, Xu Mey turned her body 180 degrees. Ye Jie left the door and walked in front of her again giving a way to Xu Mey. She took advantage of the situation and ran faster than Usain Bolt to escape.
"That was really immature of you, bro." Ye Jun who watched their antics commented trying to take control of his laughter.
