After hanging up the internal line, she had a maid send over a new thermometer. She checked again, only 38°C!
Chi Xingye almost thought she was seeing things!!
"Meng, don't leave just yet." Chi Xingye called out to the maid who had brought the thermometer.
"Miss Chi, are you hungry? I will have your meal sent up right away. His Highness had instructed..." Meng started to explain with a smile.
"No need for that, come here. I want to take your temperature!"
"No need, my temperature is normal, I don't have a fever." The maid waved her hand and laughed.
"Come here now!" Chi Xingye insisted while holding the doctor's thermometer in her hand.
"Oh." The maid was confused.
After Chi Xingye took the maid's temperature and saw the thermometer reading, the maid jumped in surprise, "Oh my god, how could my temperature be 40.5°C? It's so high?!"
