Wen Yantong stared blankly at Chi Jingxi with his eyes open, not intending to take medicine at all. Chi Jingxi moved closer and asked, "Does the headache hurt?"
Wen Yantong touched his head and nodded blankly.
Chi Jingxi seemed to be coaxing, "After you drink it, your headache won't hurt anymore."
But she passed the medicine bowl forward, but she refused to drink it.
Chi Jingxi was a little helpless, so he had to give the medicine bowl to the next one, and then said, "Let's play a small game. If you lose, you have to drink up this bowl of medicine."
"Then what if you lose?" Wen Yantong asked subconsciously.
"Then I'll drink the medicine for you," he said.
Wen Yantong readily agreed, nodded and said, "Okay, what game?"
Chi Jingxi then said, "If there are twenty-four eggs on the table, you and I take turns to take them. We can take up to five at a time, and at least one. Let's see who can finish the eggs on the table last."
Wen Yantong blinked after hearing this, as if thinking about the rules of the game.
Chi Jingxi waited for a while, and then asked, "Can you understand me?"
Wen Yantong nodded immediately, "Of course."
He said, "Then you come first."
Wen Yantong leaned on the cushion, pondered for a while, and said, "I'll take three."
Chi Jingxi said, "Then I'll take three too."
Wen Yantong counted secretly, "I'll take five more."
"I'll take one." Chi Jingxi said.
Wen Yantong: "I'll take four."
Chi Jingxi: "I'll take two."
Wen Yantong: "Five."
Chi Jingxi: "One, I took the last egg, you lose."
Wen Yantong was stunned for a moment, "How could it be?"
Then she counted the eggs she took earlier, and in the end, it was Chi Jingxi who took the last one, and she lost.
Seeing that she figured it out by herself, Chi Jingxi handed the medicine bowl in front of her, "I would like to accept the bet, drink this quickly, so as not to get cold."
Wen Yantong was unwilling to accept this fact, curled his lips and said, "You are cheating."
"Where did I ever have it?" Chi Jingxi raised his eyebrows, "You're the one trying to play tricks, right? You just promised to drink if you lose."
Wen Yantong shook his head, turned his head aside, "I won't drink."
Chi Jingxi had no choice but to let out a long sigh, and then said, "If you persist in your obsession, don't blame me for taking coercive measures against you."
Wen Yantong thought to himself, can you still squeeze my mouth and pour it in? So he pursed his lips and shook his head stubbornly.
There was a smile in Chi Jingxi's eyes, he suddenly raised his hand, took a big gulp of the medicine, and then put the bowl aside.
Seeing him move, Wen Yantong expected that he was about to move, so she hurriedly crawled into the bed. Chi Jingxi knelt by the bed with one leg, grabbed her ankle and dragged her back.
The temperature on Wen Yantong's body was astonishingly hot, he kicked his legs subconsciously, but before he could react, he was pulled over by Chi Jingxi's tyrannical arms and trapped in his embrace.
Immediately afterwards, his lips fell, and he directly pried open Wen Yantong's lips and teeth, and passed the medicine in his mouth bit by bit.
The medicine was very bitter, without adding any honey, and when Wen Yantong opened it in his mouth, Wen Yantong frowned instantly, raised his hand and pushed Chi Jingxi's shoulder, struggling to spit out the medicine in his mouth.
However, Chi Jingxi grabbed her two wrists forcefully, supported the back of her head with the other hand, and guided her to swallow the medicine.
Some brown liquid overflowed from the corner of her mouth, slid down the slender neck, and slid across the rolling throat.
Chi Jingxi felt that she was going to be infected by her high temperature. The place where they touched was hot, spreading from the fingertips up to the tip of the heart.
Wen Yantong was still refusing, twisting his wrist restlessly, trying to push him away. Chi Jingxi had no choice but to soften his strength, and gently kneaded her wrist, gradually calming her restless mood.
After taking a mouthful of medicine, Wen Yantong smacked his lips with a sad face, and fled into the bed with a whimper. Naturally, Chi Jingxi didn't like her, so he grabbed her with one hand, then turned to pick up the medicine bowl beside the bed, and took another sip.
Seeing him repeating his old tricks, Wen Yantong jumped up and down, but was completely restrained by Chi Jingxi, unable to move, and was forced to feed him a second time.
After so many repetitions, in the end Wen Yantong found that his struggle and resistance were completely useless, and the strength of his struggle gradually weakened, allowing Chi Jingxi to finish feeding the whole bowl.
Finally, the medicine bowl was empty, leaving only a little medicine dregs. Chi Jingxi glanced at the bottom of the bowl, turned her head and kissed Wen Yantong's lips lightly, like a reward.
Wen Yantong pushed his face feebly, "I'm suffering to death."
Chi Jingxi wiped off the liquid medicine that slipped from her neck with her soft fingertips, and said, "This time I was too anxious, I didn't prepare candied fruit, and I won't do it next time."
Wen Yantong glared at him, "You are cursing me to get sick next time."
Chi Jingxi paused for a moment, then changed his words, "Okay, there will be no next time."
Wen Yantong fell back, splashed on the bed, covered his head and said, "Didn't you say that my head would not hurt after drinking the medicine? But now my head hurts! You lied to me!"
Chi Jingxi had no other choice, so she also lay down on the bed, rubbed her head, and coaxed softly, "Wait a little longer, when you wake up, the pain will stop."
Wen Yantong closed his eyes, enjoying the strength of his hands.
Seeing that she seemed to be drowsy, Chi Jingxi got up and asked someone for hot water, put it on the table next to the bed, and then pulled Wen Yantong up from the bed.
Wen Yantong couldn't lift his spirits up at all, he just felt uncomfortable, and there was a bitter taste in his mouth that couldn't go away for a long time, and he always swayed to and fro when sitting.
Chi Jingxi was extremely patient, wrung out the water from the cloth towel, then sat on the edge of the bed, straightened her crooked body, let her lean on his shoulder, and wiped her face gently and forcefully.
The young master who had never served anyone before, did not look clumsy when he moved his hands, but he was afraid that his strength could not be controlled well, and it would hurt Wen Yantong's soft face.
After rubbing the hot water on his face, Wen Yantong regained consciousness a little, and opened his big hazy eyes to look at him.
After Chi Jingxi wiped her face, she wiped her neck as well, then wet the cloth towel in the basin, and then went to wipe her hands. He moved very seriously, and Wen Yantong's eyes moved with his movements.
He wiped carefully, his wrists, palms, and even the fingertips were wiped clean. Wen Yantong looked up at him for a while, and looked down at his hands for a while.
After wiping, he ordered someone to take out the water basin, and took two cushioned blankets to put on the side of the bed.
He put Wen Yantong under the quilt, covered her with the quilt, and then patted her on the forehead, "Go to sleep."
Wen Yantong opened his eyes to look at him, although he felt sleepy, but instinctively he was unwilling to close his eyes and stared at him without blinking.
Chi Jingxi looked around in the room, then took a book from the table, sat on the soft blanket beside the bed, and looked almost at the same level as Wen Yantong who was lying on the bed.
Chi Jingxi said again, "I won't leave, you go to sleep."
As if she had taken a reassurance, Wen Yantong turned to look at him sideways, the haze in her eyes became more and more obvious, making her drowsy.
Chi Jingxi opened the book, and looked at it seriously under the warm light beside the bed.
Wen Yantong thought of the time when she was in the academy a while ago, when she woke up from a nightmare and couldn't help crying. Chi Jingxi was like this, she didn't speak sweet words, but she would sit with a book by her side.
The night is thick and the surroundings are quiet. Only the sound of burning candles and the turning of pages.
Chi Jingxi's breath was very light, but it weighed heavily on Wen Yantong's heart, making her whole heart calm and calm, slowly becoming peaceful.
The servants cleaned up the empty room in a hurry, and Chi Jingxi sat until late at night, and left after Wen Yantong fell into a deep sleep, resting overnight in the cleaned up room.
Let's say that after Mu Yang and Fu Zixian were kicked out of Wen's house by Chi Jingxi, they were relatively silent in the carriage.
Mu Yang's face was sullen, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.
Fu Zixian never liked to take the initiative to talk, but seeing that Mu Yang was not very happy now, he thought that he had been worrying for the past few days, didn't sleep well, and looked extremely tired.
He wanted to divert Mu Yang's attention by talking, "Young Master Mu, what is the word General Mu gave you?"
Mu Yang regained his senses when he heard the words, and when he raised his eyes, the heaviness covering his brows disappeared a lot, and he said, "Xing Yi. If you do things, you will stand erect."
"Mu Xingyi." Fu Zixian chewed the words in his lips and teeth, and then smiled lightly, "General Mu is very cultured."
Mu Yang curled his lips, "And half of your father's credit."
Fu Zixian was silent for a while, as if hesitating a little, and finally made up his mind to take out the jade plaque from his sleeve pocket, "I'm sorry that I couldn't say happy birthday to Xing Yi personally because of the delay two days ago. "
Mu Yang didn't see it at first, so he waved his hands indifferently and said, "There's nothing to be sorry for, you were taken away, and if you want to blame it, blame the remnants of the Jiang family, and let you suffer this innocent disaster."
Fu Zixian had no choice but to raise his hand forward again, "I don't have anything valuable to give you..."
Mu Yang sighed, and seemed to have something on his mind, and suddenly opened the curtains to look out, "It's nothing, I didn't intend to ask for anything from you, as long as I wanted to. You see Wen Yantong and ask him to join our For the birthday party, he always pushed back and forth, and now I still have to worry about his illness for no reason."
Fu Zixian said, "Don't worry too much, I think it's because of the wind, it's just a normal wind and cold."
Mu Yang looked up the street, thinking that the Prime Minister's Mansion would be two streets away, so he said to the attendant outside, "Go to Xinqi Street, I want to buy some pastries."
The guard was stunned, "Should I send Young Master Fu back first, or..."
Mu Yang said, "Go directly, and go back to the General's Mansion later."
The guard took the order and bowed his head. When he retracted his head, Fu Zixian's hand had been raised for a long time.
Mu Yang looked suspiciously, "What is this?"
Fu Zixian's hand felt a little sore, so he directly stuffed it into his hand, and said, "This is the jade plaque from Chuanyang Wei's family, it's my birthday gift to you. I hope you don't mind."
Mu Yang stared, then pouted all of a sudden, and fainted on the soft bed in the car.
