Gu Xiao stood by the bed for a moment, watching the drunken and soundly sleeping Qin Youbei.
She slept restlessly, reaching out to pull the blanket off.
He covered her again, She tried to pull it away again, Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, Her eyes bleary, Her long lashes damp, Her cherry lips parted, murmering, "Thirsty... water..."
She must have felt very hot, or uncomfortable.
Gu Xiao got up, poured a glass of water, and supported her to lean against himself.
Qin Youbei, groggy, drank a cup of water with Gu Xiao's help, but it only made her feel warmer, Her body tingled as if bitten by insects, itching and numbing.
Yet she didn't know exactly where the itchiness was.
To ease it, she could only wriggle about, rubbing randomly, trying to feel better, still mumbling, "Water, I want more water..."
Gu Xiao poured another cup.
Qin Youbei kept her eyes closed, eyebrows knitted, looking extremely uncomfortable.
