"You're not having a fever, are you?" Mu Xiaoxiao gasped as she suddenly recalled earlier in the morning when the helpers had poured ice water all over him .
Moreover, she recalled that when he was at her house, he had only worn a t-shirt .
The weather in America had already gotten much colder lately .
Mu Xiaoxiao could not help but worry that he might have come to America to look for her in such a hurry that he had neglected to check the weather conditions here and ended up not wearing extra clothes .
Though he probably wouldn't get ill over just a little cold wind given that he was so strong, he had after all been splashed with cold water and stood outside for a long time .
He had also been exposed to the sea breeze while outside earlier on the cruise for god knew how long…
With these thoughts in her head, Mu Xiaoxiao grew anxious .
After suffering for so long, even if he was as strong as iron, it was impossible for him to come out of it without getting sick!
"You're a real dumbass . " Mu Xiaoxiao roasted him to his face .
He was obviously unwell, yet he still pretended that everything was okay, and he had even tried getting handsy with her, wanting to eat her up…
Suddenly, Mu Xiaoxiao realized something .
No wonder!
When he was kissing her earlier, she had felt that his lips were unnaturally hot, unlike the previous times when he had kissed her .
Seeing how sick he was, Mu Xiaoxiao felt uneasy and very worried .
She pushed him up so that he could lay comfortably on the sofa . Then, she quickly looked for her cell phone to call William for help .
Luckily, there were doctors on board .
Though she knew that William would quickly arrive with the doctor, the ten minutes during which she waited felt unbearable .
She sat on the carpet next to the sofa as she stared at Yin Shaojie's face .
The look of him with knitted brows and cold sweat on his forehead seemed like he was seriously ill .
Mu Xiaoxiao could not help but grumble about him again, saying, "Why didn't you tell me that you were sick? Are you a three-year-old? Even three-year-olds know to tell somebody when they are ill! You're a real idiot!"'
It was usually him who would scold her for being an idiot . Now, she finally had the chance to get back at him, but Mu Xiaoxiao was not even happy about it .
She touched his forehead again . Why did it feel like it was hotter than before?
Mu Xiaoxiao was very anxious as his body temperature felt scarily high .
They say that high fevers over 40 degrees can kill!
The more she thought, the more fearful she became . Feeling restless sitting, she quickly got up and went to the bathroom to prepare a wet towel to wipe away his cold sweat .
Isn't that how they do it on TV?
Change a wet towel to remove his cold sweat, and he'll feel much more comfortable .
She simply could not sit and wait for the doctor to come . Thus, she immediately took action when the idea popped into her head .
However, just as she stood up, Yin Shaojie, who was in a feverish daze, reached out his hand and grabbed her .
"No…" he mumbled something .
Mu Xiaoxiao was startled by the heat from his hand, and with both hands, she held his .
"Yin Shaojie, how are you feeling? Are you awake?" she bent down and asked beside his ear .
But he did not reply to her, his hand still gripping onto hers, unwilling to let go .
Mu Xiaoxiao felt helpless and anxious, and she said to him as if she was coaxing a child, "Okay, okay . I won't be angry with you . I'll just be getting a towel to wipe your sweat, alright?"
Yin Shaojie still did not let go of her . On the contrary, when he heard that she was going to leave, he instinctively gripped tighter as if he wanted to say that he would never let her go .
Watching him like this, her heart softened .
