Fortunately, Lin Yuxi was still strong and could withstand it. The old man gave her a dose of strong medicine, and her body temperature gradually returned to normal near dawn.
Her complexion gradually returned to normal. Chen Zhongqian touched her forehead and finally felt relieved.
The old man smiled and said, "The fever went away fairly quickly. She needs to have a good rest in the past few days. Fortunately, the epidemic has been mostly controlled, so let her not worry about it."
Chen Zhongqian nodded, "Thank you for your hard work this night, have a good sleep."
"It's not hard. You have to have such a disciple for the rest of your life. How can it be hard to take care of her? It's not too late to feel bad." The old man smiled, packed up the medicine box and went out.
Chen Zhongqian sat by the bed and watched over Lin Xixi. From time to time he would touch her forehead with his hand, for fear of having a fever again.
Lin Hexi was still dreaming at this moment, but since he no longer had a fever, he would not have that fever dream.
She dreamed about the New Year, and the holidays were about to begin. She still applied for duty on New Year's Eve and the first day of the Lunar New Year as in previous years.
Everyone in the department teased her, "Xie Xie, it's time for you to find a boyfriend."
It happened that there was a new doctor who had just graduated from the department. He was a young and talented person, so someone matched the two of them and asked the young doctor to work with her.
Lin Yuxi thought that she had been very close to a man named Chen Zhongqian recently and had the intention of developing a further relationship, so she refused.
"No, I can be alone."
"You can't live your whole life alone, right?"
She smiled and said, "You can live well alone."
After saying that, he opened his eyes and was stunned when he saw the bed curtain. Didn't he say he was on duty in the department? Why were he lying on the bed again?
It wasn't until Chen Zhongqian's hand moved that she came back to her senses. She turned her head and saw him, and she was holding his hand tightly.
"Are you awake? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Lin Yuxi shook his head, "It's okay, but I don't have any strength."
Chen Zhongqian covered her with a quilt and said, "You had a fever last night. Of course you will have no energy. Your master told you to have a good rest, so don't think about getting up."
How many years have you had a fever?
Lin Joy vaguely remembered the fever dream she had, and nodded, "It seems I'm getting old, and I have a fever as soon as I drink water."
She was covered in sweat. She had sweated so much last night, and now she was half dry and all sticky on her body. Thinking about it made her extremely uncomfortable.
"You didn't change my clothes?" Lin Yuxi asked him.
Chen Zhongqian said immediately, "No, absolutely not."
One is asking, why don't you change my clothes?
The other one was answering, I am definitely not that kind of person, I did not secretly change your clothes, I promise!
Lin Hexi smiled and said, "Then... why not?"
This time Chen Zhongqian didn't know what to say, so she added, "It's uncomfortable to wear wet clothes."
"Um."
"So, why don't you go get it for me?"
Chen Zhongqian went to the cupboard and got her a pair of clean underwear, put them on the bed and began to feel dazed again.
Lin Yuxi moved her hands, but she really didn't have the strength. "If...we are a couple, it's not impossible to help change clothes."
They had kissed each other and slept in the same bed more than once, but there always seemed to be something between them, and no one was willing to take the initiative to step over it.
If that's the case, let her step through.
Chen Zhongqian saw that she was already untying her clothes and it was inappropriate to look anywhere. He cleared his throat and pretended that he had done this many times before tidying up her clean clothes for her.
Although Lin Yuxi pretended to be calm, his heartbeat could not be hidden. It thumped again and again, as if it was about to jump out.
It seemed more difficult for two people to dress together than by themselves. When he finally changed his clothes, Chen Zhongqian was sweating profusely.
Lin Joy looked at him, "Do you have a fever?"
This sentence successfully made the other party choke. She quickly patted his back, but Chen Zhongqian pinched his wrist and stuffed it into the quilt.
"have a good rest."
The epidemic situation in Chong County has been brought under control, and now it is just the finishing work. Lin Yuxi really has nothing to worry about, so he can rest assured and recuperate here.
However, she still remembered the leg injury of the old lady next door. After sleeping all morning, she felt that she had some strength, so she got up and got dressed, intending to go to the old lady's room to clean up her carrion.
"I need your help. I don't have any strength in my hands right now. I can't do it without someone by my side."
Chen Zhongqian nodded, "As long as you need it."
Lin Xixi smiled and asked him to follow her to the old lady's house with the bamboo basket. Yesterday she said she would treat the old lady. The old lady had been looking forward to it, but when Yueniang said she fell ill, she blamed herself very much.
"Madam, are you feeling well?"
Lin Hexi smiled slightly, "Don't worry, old man, I'm young and strong, but I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable going into the water. I'm almost better after taking medicine."
Sitting down by the bed, Lin Yuxi opened the bamboo basket and prepared to take out the things for debridement, but it was empty. She suddenly frowned.
This is the first time something like this happened.
Every time she encounters a patient who needs some modern medical items to treat, the things she needs will appear around her.
Although she had already thought about it, maybe one day such a magical thing would not happen again, but it was still too sudden.
Lin Yuxi's breathing was a little messy, so he covered the basket and smiled, "Look at my brain, I need some important medicinal materials to treat your injury. I have used up what I brought, and I still need to go to the mountains to collect them. It looks like they are still good.
It’s going to have to wait.”
The old lady hurriedly said, "It's okay. It's important that you take good care of yourself. I've been waiting for you for so many years. There's nothing I can't wait for."
Lin Hexi nodded, "Then you listen to me, change your diet first, and wait until the sugar level in the blood drops to better heal the injury."
"Okay, I will listen to you." The old lady nodded hopefully.
Lin Yuxi felt even more uncomfortable. If those things never appeared in her medicine basket, what would she use to clean the old lady's wounds?
It's not impossible, it's just that everything has to be prepared again, it can't be sterile, and there's anesthesia, which is a big problem.
She went out without changing her expression, and took Chen Zhongqian back to the house. She looked over and over at the medicine basket, but even if she dug a hole, she couldn't get a pair of pliers out of it.
"Where's the medicine? Why is the medicine gone?" Lin Yuxi thought she was mentally prepared, but when all this really happened, she was still so unprepared.
Chen Zhongqian just watched from the side and waited for her to calm down before saying, "Don't worry."
Lin Joy rubbed her face, "I promised the old lady that I would treat her wounds, what should I do now?"
He reached out and held her hand, "You can do it without those things, I believe in you."
