Xue Jing shivered and took a few steps back.
If this happened to a human, even if he didn't die, he would still be half-crippled.

Xia Mei was the first to rush in.
"lingling, are you there? What's going on? "
She looked around and saw Xia Ling curled up on the bed.
Her Pale face and cheeks were flushed red. Xia Mei stretched out her hand and felt that her body temperature was extremely hot.
In the early summer weather, the girl pulled the blanket and curled up on the bed. She was unconscious, but her head was covered in sweat.
"Oh my God, it's so hot. " Xia Mei was shocked. "Nie Chen, quickly call your uncle Gu and ask him to come over and take a look. "
Gu Shubo's father was a doctor. He had been treating patients and saving people for decades. He was also a shareholder in Gu Shubo's company.
Naturally, he was also in the hotel today.
Nie Chen withdrew his gaze from the girl on the bed. He responded and turned to leave the room.
A dark light flashed past his eyes. That glance just now had already captured the girl's current appearance.
Her skin was fair, and her unconscious appearance was so fragile that it looked like bubbles that would dissipate at any moment.
Other people might not know, but how could Nie Chen Not know why Xia Ling suddenly had a fever?
He exhaled lightly, feeling a little guilty in his heart.
For the first time, Nie Chen felt that he had not thought things through properly. He was only focused on helping him remove the effects of the drug, but he had forgotten that he was originally a delicate little girl.
In such a cold weather, how could he not have a fever when he was drenched in cold water?

Father Gu received Nie Chen's call and immediately rushed over.
The people who were originally waiting in the Front Hall of the Hotel Now knew that Xia Ling was sick and had quite a fever.
The Nie Family, the Xia Family, and the Gu family ran companies. They were both well-known figures in the market.
However, the Nie family was now considered the most promising family. The Xia family's business was stable and they had expanded. As for the Gu family's company, they had done well in the past two years. However, Father Gu had placed his attention on the management and investment of the hospital It was often easy to overlook the management of the company.
The engagement of Nie Chen and Xue Jing was considered a joyous event in the capital. Those with some status and status came over to support the event.
However, when it was time for the banquet, there were unexpected complications.
The only daughter of the Xia family suddenly had a fever.
The people in the front hall were all waiting. The people from the Nie Family and the Gu family came over to take a look
Seeing the little girl's fever, the elders of the other two families did not feel good either.
A dark group of people came over, but Xia Mei persuaded them to return to the front hall.
In the hotel room, Father Gu looked at Xia Ling's condition. His medical skills combined Chinese and Western medicine. He had saved many people's lives in the early years, and Xia Mei trusted him the most.
"Her Qi and blood is a little weak, and the cold evil has entered her body, which caused her fever. I'll prescribe some medicine now and go to the pharmacy to take it to reduce the fever. After today, I'll boil more sugar water for her to replenish her Qi and blood, and everything else will be fine. "
Hearing that she was fine, Xia Mei heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's been hard on brother Gu to make this trip. "
"This child is usually healthy and has never been sick before. I didn't expect her to suddenly get sick, and it scared me to death. "
Sitting beside Xia Ling, Xia Mei tucked her in and turned to look at Nie Chen.
"I'm really sorry for delaying your engagement with Jingjing. Nie Chen, doesn't your grandfather like my Fang Nanshan inkstone? I'll get someone to send it to your house tomorrow to make your grandfather happy. "
That Nanshan Inkstone was something that grandpa Nie had been thinking about for a long time.
Now, when Xia Mei said she was giving the inkstone to Nie Chen, it was actually an apology to the Nie family.
Everyone present understood.
When mother Nie heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "don't stand on ceremony, Xia Mei. What are we doing? No matter how important the day is, it's still the child's important. It doesn't matter if it's delayed for a while. It's just an engagement, so there's no need to be so particular about it. "
