Chapter 71 Fever
Chapter 71 Fever
chapter 71
"You're awake?!"
Meng Youcheng looked at Jiang Yuming excitedly and asked anxiously, "How are you feeling now? Are you any better?"
The boy's face was extremely pale, as white as paper. His dry lips moved slightly. "Uncle...where is this?"
His voice was still very weak and listless.
"This is a hospital. You have a fever. How are you feeling? Are you any better?"
The boy nodded slightly. "Mm."
"You woke up so quickly?"
Just then, the doctor came over. "How are you feeling? Are you still feeling unwell? Feeling weak is normal..."
Jiang Yuming shifted his gaze and glanced at him, "Hmm..."
"Your brother didn't sleep a wink all night. When you get better, you have to thank him properly. He carried you over around 1 a.m. and has been busy ever since..."
"And your girlfriend, she's also..."
"I'm not his girlfriend!"
Before the doctor could finish speaking, Xia Chunian returned with breakfast. She handed the doctor the soy milk and fried dough sticks, saying, "This is what you wanted..."
Then he handed both bowls of porridge to Meng Youcheng...
She said, "I'm not his girlfriend, I'm just his neighbor. I'm single, and besides, he's so weak, I wouldn't even look at him!"
The doctor was stunned for a few seconds...
"Not your girlfriend? I thought... I'm so sorry..."
Xia Chunian laughed and said, "Of course! It would ruin someone's reputation. By the way, brother, do you have a boyfriend?"
Meng Youcheng was stunned when he heard their conversation...
No, isn't she the female lead?
How can you flirt with other guys in front of the male lead?
Is it really that crazy?
The doctor was quite adept at handling things: "Didn't I... add you on WeChat?"
Meng Youcheng stared at the two of them in disbelief...
The male lead is still here!
They cheated on the male lead?!
Just as the man was about to speak, Jiang Yuming suddenly spoke forcefully, "Uncle, I... am hungry..."
Ugh……
Silly boy, someone's already put a green hat on your head, and you're still starving here...
Meng Youcheng opened the porridge. "I'll feed you..."
Logically, this should have been the female lead's job, but this girl, I don't know what she was thinking, actually flirted with a handsome guy right in front of the male lead...
Well, seeing that she's in such a good mood, I shouldn't bother her. I'll do it for her.
Meng Youcheng scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it gently, and then held it to the boy's lips...
Jiang Yuming was stunned...
His eyes were fixed on Meng Youcheng, as if a small star was shining in them...
After hesitating for a long time, those parched lips slowly opened...
He ate it, his gaze remaining fixed on the man's face...
Meng Youcheng didn't pay much attention to him...
At this moment, Meng Youcheng's head was buzzing. Getting old really is taking its toll. Just staying up late last night had made him feel so unwell. He felt like his body didn't even belong to him anymore...
He gently skimmed off another spoonful, patiently blew on it for a while, and repeated the same actions as before...
The way a young man looks at a man can stretch into a long, tender thread, full of affection...
Where are you from?
Those two idiots over there, "eager to cuckold the male lead," were having a lively conversation...
Suddenly, our silly female lead stopped talking...
The doctor looked at her, puzzled. "What's wrong?"
"Shh..."
Xia Chunian made a hand gesture, her gaze still fixed on Meng Youcheng, and whispered, "Look at them... don't they have great chemistry? Aren't they kind of sweet?"
"Huh? You...?"
After about ten minutes, the bowl of porridge was finally finished...
Meng Youcheng stood up, his head spinning instantly. He took a step back and almost fell...
"Uncle, what's wrong?"
Jiang Yuming asked anxiously...
The man shook his head. "It's nothing..."
"Your uncle took good care of you last night; he's so kind to you..."
Xia Chunian stepped forward, "It's so enviable. Why didn't I meet someone as good as him? He's so good to you, afraid something might happen to you, he even carried you on his back..."
"Do you know how heavy you are? I can't even lift you up, but your uncle carried you the whole way, really..."
"Don't love too much~"
Meng Youcheng's head was buzzing at that moment, and he was in no mood to understand the meaning of her words...
Instead, she sat down, shook her head, and said, "I'm fine..."
"Uncle, you...?"
Jiang Yuming's eyes were full of heartache as she stared intently at him. "You've taken care of me all night. Are you very tired now? Do you want to...?"
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy..."
"Cough cough..."
Before the man could finish speaking, the boy coughed again. Meng Youcheng patted his chest. "Aren't you better yet? Why are you coughing again?"
"It's normal, don't worry..."
The doctor suddenly spoke up, "After he rests for a while, you can take him home. This is just a small clinic, there's nothing else wrong, you can take him home to rest..."
"Oh, by the way, the medical bill is 486, but I'll give you a friendly price of 480."
Meng Youcheng: "Can he really go home now?"
"It's nothing..."
The doctor thought for a moment and said, "The main thing is that I don't admit patients here, and nothing else is likely to happen. He just needs to rest. He's not very strong right now, so you'll definitely have to carry him home..."
"Okay, thank you."
……
Xia Chunian hailed a taxi...
Meng Youcheng carried the boy into a taxi...
Jiang Yuming lay on his shoulder, looking at him weakly, "Uncle, are you tired?"
Meng Youcheng shook his head...
Why say so much nonsense?
Xia Chunian opened the car door and got in. "Don't you know how much you weigh? Why are you asking him if he's tired? He must be very tired..."
The boy ignored her, his eyes still fixed on Meng Youcheng. He raised his hand and wiped the sweat from the man's face...
"Uncle, thank you..."
"You... are so good to me."
The man didn't reply, but the girl next to him said jokingly, "Then why don't you repay me with your body? What's the use of just saying thank you? Anyone can say thank you..."
Meng Youcheng stared at Xia Chunian in disbelief...
She... shouldn't be a fujoshi (a female fan of male-male romance), right?
This is a romance novel, it shouldn't be that serious, right?
But she...
Is it a joke? Or are you serious?
Jiang Yuming is your future boyfriend!
The boy didn't reply, his eyes still fixed on Meng Youcheng. "Uncle, are you willing?"
"Willing to what?"
The man looked at the boy with a shocked expression...
"I'm willing... I'm so tired."
what? !
……
Three days passed quietly...
Jiang Yuming's health has improved a lot. During his follow-up visit, the doctor said that he used to take a lot of medicine and rarely caught a cold. However, if he did catch a cold, it would be very troublesome...
So you must keep a close eye on him!
Meng Youcheng sighed heavily and replied with a "okay".
His pockets were emptier than his face; he had no money at all. The company wasn't paying him anymore, so he had to find a way to make a living. He took a simple job...
She worked part-time to earn money while taking care of Jiang Yuming...
It's not really about taking care of him; the boy can cook for himself, so he doesn't need to do anything...
Jiang Yuming didn't want to practice acting anymore; he wanted to find a job to help ease the burden on men...
Meng Youcheng refused.
One day, the landlady came to the place and called Meng Youcheng and Xia Chunian to her room...
"Hey girl, and little brother, it's been a month already. Are you going to rent again next month? If you are, you need to pay the rent today..."
Xia Chunian took out the 2000 yuan she had prepared in advance and handed it to the landlord, "It's for rent..."
Meng Youcheng seemed a little uneasy...
Although he found a new job, he's only earned less than a thousand yuan so far, after all, it's only been less than five days...
"Sister, do you think it's possible to...?!"
"I understand..."
Before the man could finish speaking, the landlord interrupted, "I only found out a few days ago that your nephew is a celebrity. I saw the news the other day; I know you're having some trouble..."
"How about this? I've been losing at mahjong these past few days, and my old girlfriends told me to find a man to give me a massage and do something..."
As they were talking, the landlord took Meng Youcheng's hand. "You can turn things around. Why don't you come to my room tonight and help me turn things around? I'll waive this month's rent..."
The man was stunned...
Xia Chunian quickly stepped forward, separated the two of them, and said with a smile, "Landlady, my room leaks when it rains, could you take a look?"
The landlord smiled and said, "Okay..."
As she turned around, she glanced at Meng Youcheng. "Little brother, think it over carefully..."
……
At nine o'clock in the evening, Xia Chunian returned home after finishing her overtime work...
She noticed the light was still on next door, so she went over...
Jiang Yuming sat alone on the bed playing on his phone when the girl smiled and said, "Brother...where's your precious uncle?"
The boy looked up at her. "Sister Xia, why are you so late?"
"Don't even mention it. That bastard boss treats us interns like dirt. The pay is pittance, and we have to do the work of nine people..."
She smiled. "Where's your precious uncle?"
"I don't know, he went out..."
Xia Chunian immediately sensed something was wrong, "Oh no!!!"
