Jian Nian had feverish delirium at one point.
It was not until the next morning that he truly came around.
Ye Xi didn't sleep well all night, initially wanting to take Jian Nian to the hospital, but Jian Nian refused to budge, curling up in the blanket, crying and feeling wronged, with no indication of what had happened.
In Ye Xi's mind, the words of that man on the phone kept resurfacing.
While taking care of Jian Nian, Ye Xi barely slept.
When Jian Nian opened his eyes, he found himself already in bed.
He had no recollection of how he got back to his room.
Hearing some noise, Ye Xi came in from the outside.
Seeing that Jian Nian was awake, he came over and asked, "Jian Nian, are you feeling any better?"
The fever had not subsided, but it was much better compared to last night.
Ye Xi scanned his forehead with a digital thermometer, 37.8 degrees.
That's a relief, a relief…
