Chapter 669
He Mei fell asleep in an extremely depressed mood. This time, she did not sleep very well. She had dreamt for the whole night and the dreams were filled with scenes of her PVPing with Huo Jiajue.
The next morning, the first rays of the morning sun shone on She Meixin’s face through the half-closed gap in the tent’s zipper, bringing with them a cool warmth that disturbed her nightmares along with the mist.
When she opened her eyes, she felt that her whole body was sore and her head was dizzy.
The not-so-thick sleeping bag was completely useless in this late autumn night. He Mei Xin sat up, feeling the weight on her head. She could feel the overwhelming presence of a cold that was assaulting her.
After climbing out of the tent, she narrowed her eyes and knocked on the security booth’s door.
"Can you let me in now?" Her voice was slurred, but that was what she meant. The security guard could understand.
"Sure." He pressed the remote control in his hand, and the heavy metal door opened with a light flick.
She felt as if she was treading on cotton and floated into the yard. Then she walked through the garden and into the living room.
It was still early, and he was still in bed, not to mention Huo Jiabao.
When the butler saw He Meixin walking in from the outside, she did not say anything. She had already known about the conflict between her and Huo Jianji last night.
"Young master still has an hour before you wake up. You don’t look too good, go upstairs to rest." The butler kindly reminded her, whether it was her concern for her employees or her respect for her mother. These words were extremely pleasing to He Meixin’s ears. Apart from her daughter, he was probably the most friendly person in the family to her.
"Thank you. "I understand." Ye Zichen nodded towards her, then she blurrily walked upstairs to her own room.
A headache began to slowly attack her sensory nerve endings, and soon after, all the muscles in her body began to ache.
He had a fever.
This was her first instinct. She didn’t have the slightest bit of strength left in her body. At this moment, she was in so much pain that she couldn’t even open her eyes.
She threw herself onto the soft bed and tightly wrapped the soft blanket around her, trying to drive away the chills that followed her. At this moment, the cold virus was constantly spreading inside her body, and she could almost hear the arrogant clamoring of the microbes.
Once again, he fell into a deep slumber ...
At eight-thirty in the morning, Huo Jiabao got up and went downstairs. There was no sign of He Yimeng.
Walking up to the dining table, he asked the butler who was in charge of arranging breakfast, "Is Yi Meng still in bed?"
"I’ve already told Miss He to call for Miss. She should be coming down soon." The butler replied respectfully.
"She Meixin has already woken up? "You woke up early." He then turned around and went upstairs to She Yimeng’s room.
When the butler saw Huo Jiu’s expression as he left, he couldn’t help but secretly wipe off the cold sweat from He Mei’s heart.
He went upstairs to She Yimeng’s room. He gently opened the door and saw She Yimeng sleeping soundly on the bed. Once again, her face was clouded. It was already so late, yet She Meixin still hadn’t come to wake him up and put his clothes on. Just how did this woman become her mother?
After closing the door, he walked directly to He Meixin’s room and fiercely pushed open the door. The first thing that entered his sight was He Meixin, who was also sleeping soundly.
Seeing that she slept so deeply, yet he didn’t even hear the sound of the door opening, Huo Jiu suddenly felt a bit angry.
He quickly walked to the bedside and used his large hands to grab the quilt. Then, he lifted it and saw her curled up together with her clothes.
She wasn’t woken up by his actions and was still sleeping soundly. Her posture was the same as a baby’s within the mother’s body. It was unknown if it was because she was too cold or because she lacked a sense of security.
When Huo Jique saw She Meiming’s dead sleep, an evil smile appeared on his face. That smile grew larger and larger, from the corners of his eyes to the corners of his mouth. Finally, it turned into a wave of chilliness that forced itself onto She Meixin ...
He Mei Xin felt as if she was walking on a cold glacier in her dreams. Everything around her was crystal clear, without the slightest hint of warmth.
The breath that he breathed out could instantly freeze into ice. It was cold ...
Just as she was stuck in the snow and ice, she felt a bone-piercing chill on her face. When she opened her eyes, she saw the dark expression on Huojiao’s face and the large cup of water in his hand. She was stunned for about five seconds before she realized what was going on.
She abruptly sat up from the bed and wiped the cold water that had just been splashed on her face. She did not have the strength to be angry with him and pointed at him with trembling hands while cursing: "Is there something wrong with you? I splashed cold water on someone’s face so early in the morning that even the blanket was getting wet. "
"What?" You dare to say that there’s something wrong with me? Do you know what time it is? You want your daughter to go to kindergarten? " Hearing how she scolded him so fearlessly, Huo Jiabao furrowed his brows and prepared to show her what he felt.
However, she only reached for her phone from the bedside table, opened her eyes slightly and looked at the time, then said, "I don’t have any strength left in me, can you change to someone else to take care of him?"
With that, she shifted her body and laid her head on the ground where it had not been wet.
"Woman, you’re so old and you’re still in bed?" He looked at her falling body and suddenly felt a little angry. Did he ignore his words? Taking a few steps forward, he walked over to the bedside and pulled on her wrist. He pulled hard, causing He Meixin to scream out loud. How could her aching muscles withstand such a great deal of force? She felt as if all the bones in her body were about to break and tears were about to flow out.
Just as his large hand touched her wrist, he felt an abnormal heat spread to his palm. He then saw that she was actually crying and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Frowning, he could not help but stretch out his hand towards her forehead.
"I’m not feeling well, my whole body hurts ..." As she cried, she mumbled something like a child.
His hand touched her forehead, and a hot rush of heat traveled to his palm. He lowered his head and cursed "idiot." Then he took his cell phone out of his pocket and dialed a number.
"Sir, what are your orders?" The call was to the housekeeper, who was busy downstairs.
"Have A Xia take care of A Xia and wake up. Also, inform Doctor Li to come to our house. Tell A Xia to not let He Meng into He Mei’s room. In addition, let Sis Zhang carry a clean bed sheet to He Meixin’s room to help her change it. " After calmly giving out some instructions, he glanced at He Mei who was still crying and said with some annoyance, "You will stay in this room today. There is no need to take care of your daughter."
