Chapter 159 All Night Care
He drank it in big gulps. Jiang Man called out again tentatively, "Chen Hao?"
But he in my arms just gasped and didn't give any response.
Jiang Man gently laid him down, clenched his slightly trembling hands, gritted his teeth, and found some alcohol again. He mixed it with warm water, soaked a towel in it, and wiped his forehead, armpits, hands and feet, hoping to help cool him down.
This process was repeated many times, wiping every half hour. The whole night was spent in busyness until the fever finally subsided. Jiang Man collapsed on the edge of the bed, too tired to move.
The next day, Jiang Man came to the company with heavy dark circles under his eyes.
When Xiao Zheng saw her, he was as surprised as if he had seen a ghost, and hurriedly asked about her situation. Jiang Man smiled bitterly, but didn't know how to explain.
At noon, she hurried home during her lunch break.
Chen Hao had already woken up and was holding the towel on his forehead, looking thoughtfully at the photos placed on the bedside.
Hearing the sound of the key opening the door, he looked up and saw Jiang Man running towards him hurriedly, putting a hand on his forehead, "Thank goodness it didn't catch fire again."
"What did you say?" Chen Hao asked in confusion.
Jiang Man knelt beside the bed and waved his hand, "Nothing, are you hungry?"
She took a breath and asked quickly with concern.
Chen Hao spread his hands and said, "Jiang Man, do I look like someone who can get out of bed?"
Jiang Man glared at him unhappily. How could it be so exaggerated? She stood up and took a plastic bag from outside the door.
"What is this?" Chen Hao asked curiously.
"Pork liver porridge." Jiang Man glanced at him and said, "You don't even know this, do you?"
Chen Hao rubbed his forehead helplessly, "Of course I know him."
"Pork liver replenishes blood, drink it quickly." She handed the bowl to him.
Chen Hao frowned. In fact, he never liked the taste of pig liver, but.
In order not to let her down, he drank it down sip by sip.
When the bowl was empty, he turned around and found that Jiang Man had fallen asleep on the edge of the bed.
He gently placed the bowl on the bedside, his fingers lightly touched the loose hair on Jiang Man's forehead, shook his head helplessly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He stood up gently, the wound on his waist still aching slightly.
Chen Hao bent down and carefully picked her up. Perhaps because she was too tired yesterday, Jiang Man was sleeping soundly at this moment, not being disturbed at all.
He gently put her on the bed. Jiang Man muttered something softly. He couldn't hear it clearly, but he liked her murmurs in her sleep very much.
He lowered his head, pressed his nose against hers, and called softly, "Jiang Man."
Then he raised the corners of his mouth in self-mockery, not knowing what to say.
He stood up and took off the gauze on his head.
I took out my cell phone and found that it was almost broken.
He twisted his neck. He would not let any of those who had troubled him yesterday go.
A cold look flashed in his eyes, and he dialed a number at random and gave a few brief instructions.
Then he immediately called Su Zeqi back.
Su Zeqi started to blame Chen Hao as soon as he answered the phone. Chen Hao held the phone farther away to avoid hurting his ears. "I know, Dad. I'll go back to the company this afternoon." He responded, and at the same time glanced at Jiang Man on the bed with a smile on his face.
When Jiang Man woke up, it was almost evening. She jumped up, hurriedly tidied herself up, and then hurried out the door.
Her steps suddenly stopped, and she realized that it would be useless to rush now.
She rubbed her messy hair and became extremely irritable.
Her cell phone suddenly vibrated. She picked it up and saw that it was Su Heng calling.
She swallowed, thinking, could he be here to call me to task?
"Hello." She picked up the phone cautiously.
"Where are you?" The voice on the other end of the phone was unusually calm, as if asking her what she wanted to eat for lunch.
Jiang Man yawned, "At home."
"come out."
Jiang Man blinked in confusion, "What?"
"Xuanxuan is here with me, don't you come to pick him up?" Hearing this, Jiang Man was stunned and all sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
"Why is Xuanxuan at your place?" she asked puzzledly.
"There's a parent-teacher meeting today, you didn't forget it, did you?" Su Heng's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Jiang Man patted his forehead. He was indeed busy all night yesterday and had completely forgotten about this matter.
"Right away, I'm out the door!" she said as she rushed to the door, grabbed her bag and prepared to run away.
"Stop struggling. By the time you remember, the flowers will be cold." Su Heng's voice came through the receiver with a hint of impatience.
"Come directly to my apartment." Although his tone was cold, it carried unquestionable majesty, as if if she hesitated for a moment, he would come to her house in person to "escort" her.
Jiang Man nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
Then she walked out slowly, still feeling a bit sleepy.
Perhaps due to lack of sleep, Jiang Man kept his eyes half-closed and his steps unsteady throughout the journey.
When she arrived at the foot of the apartment building, a silver-gray sports car suddenly drove up and almost passed her by.
She was so confused that she couldn't react. By the time she saw clearly, he was already very close and she couldn't avoid him.
She screamed and closed her eyes, her body staggering backwards due to a powerful force, rolling several times on the ground.
Unexpectedly, she felt no pain. She opened her eyes trembling with fear, only to see Su Heng standing before her with an angry look on his face.
"Don't you have eyes to look at when you walk?" He roared, his eyes seemed to be spewing fire.
Jiang Man was still in shock, breathing heavily and patting his chest, "I was scared to death."
"Are you listening to me?" Su Heng became even more furious when he saw that she ignored his anger. He reached out and pinched her cheek, forcing her to look at him.
The pain on his cheek made Jiang Man frown, "Let go, it hurts."
"Do you feel the pain?" Su Heng glared at her. "If you had really been hit by a car just now, I wonder how you would cry!"
Jiang Man curled his lips and said, "Don't be alarmist."
Su Heng helped her up. "Also, are you a snail? Why are you crawling so slowly?"
"I..." Jiang Man was about to retort when he was interrupted by Su Heng's cold snort, "Don't ignore my words!"
"I didn't!" Jiang Man widened her eyes, but when she saw Su Heng, a hint of joy inexplicably surged in her heart. "Where did you go yesterday?" she couldn't help asking.
When Su Heng heard this question, he lowered his head and asked, "Why, do you miss me?"
Jiang Man rolled his eyes at him and shook his head, "No."
"Oh?" Su Heng snorted lightly, with a hint of amusement in his tone.
Jiang Man coughed dryly and said, "I thought about it."
"Well, I like honest girls." Su Heng looked at her with teasing in his eyes.
Jiang Man smiled slightly, "Boss Su, do you know what 'forcing a woman of good character into prostitution' means?"
