Chapter 165: No morals
His shoulders suddenly felt heavy. Jiang Wan originally wanted to push the person away, but he soon realized that something was wrong.
The temperature of the man's forehead was frighteningly high, and even the breath on her neck was scorching and burning. She probably couldn't stand anymore.
She could only use her left hand holding the umbrella to support his arm, and used her right hand to take out her cell phone from her bag and hail a taxi.
"Lu An, are you still awake?"
The touch in his arms was so soft and fragrant that Shao Lu'an let go of his hands powerlessly, only to feel his head getting more and more dizzy.
He didn't really mean to hug her.
Even if he has ten thousand ideas in his mind, he won't take action the first time they meet.
He couldn't help but feel such a headache just now that he wanted to fall backwards. He thought that he couldn't really embarrass himself in front of her, so he might as well just throw it all away.
It would seem more comfortable if she pushed me down.
But it seems that I am lucky...
Jiang Wan didn't push him away.

Shao Lu'an himself didn't know when he fell asleep. When he regained consciousness, he was lying on the hospital bed with an infusion needle inserted in the back of his hand.
As for Jiang Wan, she seemed to have fallen asleep on the side of the hospital bed, with her long, soft, black hair loosely spread out, revealing half of her porcelain-white, soft face, and she was holding a cell phone in her hand.
Her breathing was so shallow that it was almost inaudible, but Shao Lu'an felt his throat tighten and he couldn't move his eyes away.
But perhaps it was because his eyes were too straightforward, Jiang Wan, who was originally just sleeping lightly with her eyes closed and not sleeping very soundly, soon noticed it.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
After a brief look, Jiang Wan's eyes moved slightly, he straightened up, and asked softly: "How is it, do you feel better now?"
Shao Luan stared at her and said seriously, "I have a high fever. Shouldn't you touch my forehead to see if my fever has subsided?"
Jiang Wan blinked, and was able to remain calm in the face of his unreasonable words. He stood up, poured him a cup of hot water and handed it to him.
"The doctor said that you probably had a fever caused by excessive fatigue that reduced your body's immunity. It's quite serious. I thought you would sleep until dawn."
She lowered her eyelashes slightly, opened her cell phone, checked the time, and then looked at him.
"But it's not even twelve o'clock yet. Do you want to sleep a little longer? The nurse is outside."
Shao Lu'an raised his eyebrows slightly, of course he could hear the implication that she was about to run away.
He didn't have any extravagant hope that Jiang Wan would stay here with him until tomorrow morning, nor did he think it was necessary.
But after only seeing each other for a short while tonight, he was not satisfied at all.
"No, I'm shy. You have to chat with me for a while before you leave. Only then can I fall asleep."
Jiang Wan showed a suspicious look and naturally didn't believe it.
But Shao Lu'an is a patient after all, so it is harmless for him to stay a little longer.
Only when he saw her sit down again did Shao Lu'an relax his brow.
But in such a solitary space, looking at her familiar face so close to him, his fingertips suddenly felt itchy.
His mind began to uncontrollably recall the wonderful touch of the warm and soft jade in his arms not long ago. He closed his eyes and felt that his fever seemed to have gotten worse.
Jiang Wan noticed the sudden quietness of the atmosphere around him. His brows twitched slightly. Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, he was interrupted by the sudden ringing of his cell phone.
Shao Lu'an took out his cell phone impatiently, and after glancing at the number, his expression changed slightly.
He didn't hesitate and quickly put it in his ear.
"Why are you calling me so late?"
The man's voice on the other end was as deep and sharp as ever.
"The base informed me that you had completed the formalities early tonight, and they called me to remind me that you were not in good condition."
"Are you home now? I'll ask Lu Ming to come over and check on you."
Lu Ming is Shao Ting's personal doctor, and Shao Lu'an is also quite familiar with him.
In the past he would not have refused, but there was certainly no need to do so tonight.
Shao Lu'an's eyes fell on Jiang Wan's face and he sneered, "No need. I'm in the hospital by myself now. You should just stay with my cousin's wife."
As soon as this name came out, Jiang Wan's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't figured out who was calling Shao Lu'an.
She was suddenly somewhat glad that Shao Lu'an at least didn't turn on the speakerphone, so she could continue to pretend she knew nothing. Otherwise, even she would have found this situation difficult to handle.
Fortunately, the call didn't last long before he hung up.
What she never expected was that just when Shao Lu'an put down his phone and Jiang Wan had no time to breathe a sigh of relief, her phone suddenly rang with the familiar incoming call vibration sound.
Her eyes darkened slightly, and when she opened her phone again, she saw the familiar note displayed on the screen.
Because of the angle, Shao Lu'an didn't see who called her, but he took in the changes in her expression that she had not yet had time to conceal, and the corners of his lips immediately pursed into a straight line.
"Jiang Wan, your guilty expression makes me feel like a gigolo."
He grew up in a family like the Shao family, which has extremely complicated relationships and backgrounds. He may act without scruples, but it has long been his instinct to be extremely sensitive to the emotions of people around him.
Just like he knew from the beginning that Jiang Wan didn't care much about him, if he had thought about it more deeply, it would have been impossible for him to be unaware of it.
Jiang Wan was at a loss for words for a rare occasion. She didn't respond to him, but she didn't answer the phone either. She just stood up.
"Lu An, it's getting late. I should go back."
Her tone was soft and calm when she said this, but Shao Lu'an's expression looked slightly ugly.
He could almost conclude that compared to Shen Yan, the person who called her was probably the one who really had a close relationship with her.
He asked, "Jiang Wan, do you have a boyfriend?"
Jiang Wan lowered her curled eyelashes slightly and said softly, "No."
After a pause, she continued, "But didn't you say before? I'm a liar."
"Lu An, how are you going to judge which of my words are true and which are false?"
Shao Lu'an looked slightly stunned. This time he did not refute anything and remained silent.
Jiang Wan's eyebrows slightly curved and he turned around.
"Okay, I really should go. You should rest well. If you rest well, you might be able to be discharged from the hospital tomorrow."
Just as she reached the door, someone behind her suddenly called her in a low voice.
"Jiang Wan."
She turned around and met his eyes, which were slightly tired but as dark as black jade.
The other person stared at her for a long while before he said solemnly, "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not."
"I have no morals."
"As long as you don't tell me to get lost, I don't care whether you have a boyfriend or not."
