  "Cough, cough, cough." Gu Wenyan was covered with a thick quilt, his cheeks slightly red, his lips dry and hot. He leaned against the head of the bed, a towel soaked in cold water on his head, and coughed softly.

  Mingshi went upstairs carrying a kettle and a cup of water from downstairs.

  After entering the room, she immediately poured a glass of water for Gu Wenyan.

  "Mr. Gu, drink some water."

  Gu Wenyan leaned forward slightly and took the cup of water but did not drink it. Instead, he stroked the wall of the cup and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that I only stayed in the sea water for a while yesterday, but I had a fever this morning. I'm sorry that you took care of me."

  "That's what makes me embarrassed. You went to the sea yesterday, probably to find me. So if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gotten sick. Isn't it my duty to take care of you?" Ming Shi said sullenly. She felt a little ashamed and guilty.

  When she saw several missed calls on her phone yesterday, she immediately understood why Gu Wenyan looked so anxious. It turned out that it was because she turned off the sound of her phone, which made him worry and come to look for her.

  After waking up early this morning and finding that Gu Wenyan had a fever, Ming Shi couldn't help but recall the time when she was hiding behind the reef and watching him searching the surroundings bit by bit in the cold sea water. She immediately took all the responsibility for his fever on herself.

  "It's not your fault, I was too careless." Gu Wenyan grabbed Mingshi's wrist with the hand that was not holding the water cup and gently pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed. He looked at her slightly depressed and drooping eyes and comforted her in a gentle voice.

  His eyes were focused and gentle, and his words took all the responsibility on himself. Mingshi felt even more guilty when she heard it. Thinking that Mr. Gu was such a good person, she must take good care of him!
  After Gu Wenyan finished drinking the water in the cup, Mingshi put the cup on the bedside table, and then reached out to try the towel on his forehead.

  "I'll change it again." Ming Shi said, and immediately took the towel to the bathroom, dipped it in cold water, wrung it dry, and came back to put it on Gu Wenyan's forehead again.

  "It's a pity that there is no ice at home, otherwise I could use ice bags." Mingshi sighed.

  Gu Wenyan let her operate on his head and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, my men will deliver some things to your door soon. I believe they will be thoughtful enough to send ice cubes."

  "Well, this is the only way now."

  Ming Shi said, pouring another glass of water for Gu Wenyan and handing it to him, "I heard that people with fever should drink more warm water, you should drink a few more glasses too."

  "Okay." Gu Wenyan's tone was full of indulgence, as if he wanted to do more than just drink some warm water, as if he would agree to whatever Mingshi said.

  Mingshi suddenly felt his face getting hot and a little uncomfortable.

  Gu Wenyan's hands acted quite quickly. Half an hour later, they came to the door one after another to put things in place, including some food and basic supplies. Gu Wenyan did not let Mingshi go down to meet them, but sent a message directly to ask them to go back after they were done.

  They came and went quickly. After the last person left, Mingshi slowly came down from upstairs. The first thing she did was to go to the kitchen to check the refrigerator and found a lot more vegetables and fruits in it. But she skipped those and searched up and down again. She scratched her head in confusion, but found that there was no ice at all.
