Chapter 175 - Chapter 175: Chapter One-Hundred and Seventv-Five: Hell (2/2)
‘Oh! So, the doors Ipushed open in my dream was the blanket! Fang Xi realized. ‘ Then, what about ‘him’? Washe just a figment ofmy imagination? In my dreams, he… was always dismissive ofme.’
Ye Kun carefully reached out to touch her forehead and said worriedly, “You’re still running a little hot. I’ll call a doctor to come take a look at you.”
Ye Kun turned around to get his phone. “Ye Kun,” Fang Xi called out; her hoarse voice sounded unfamiliar even to herself. “Hmm?” Ye Kun held his phone and answered her.
“I’m fine,” Fang Xi uttered.
Ye Kun handed her the digital thermometer. “Take a measure and see what temperature you’re at now. We’ll be fine without a doctor if it’s below 38 degrees Celsius. We’ll just need to continue to lower your temperature physically, take medicine, and drink water,” Ye Kun stated, talking more to himself than her.
Fang Xi accepted the thermometer and smiled at Ye Kun. “I’m fine, really.”
Ye Kun froze. Fang Xi’s smile, while beautiful, seemed fragile.
Fang Xi patted the seat beside her, indicating for him to sit down. However, Ye Kun pulled a small stool over and sat facing Fang Xi—she didn’t need to be taken care of, so he could no longer get so close to her.
Fang Xi lowered her head and chuckled. ‘ Ye Kun is a gentleman. He’s very different from a certain someone’s cold indifference.’
“Ye Kun, I had a dream,” Fang Xi told him. “I dreamed that I was in Hell and was frozen and burned. It was terrible.” With her throat moistened by the honey water, her voice gradually became clear.
“That’s because you have a fever,” Ye Kun said.
Fang Xi shook her head. “No, that was Hell. The hell that is my punishment. I even met my ex-boyfriend there.”
Fang Xi smiled at Ye Kun. Ye Kun was at a loss; he didn’t know how to comfort her.
“After this little trip to Hell, I’m truly over him. Ever since we broke up, I
couldn’t move on until—until yesterday. I’ve really moved on. From now on, my feelings for him will disappear together with the dream from last night. Ye Kun, I’m not sad anymore. This counts as a rebirth of sorts. Thank you! For always taking care of me,” Fang Xi said calmly and coherently..
