Zhuo Jian awoke again a little past noon.
Li Yuqing returned to the ward with antipyretics from outside.
As Zhuo Jian was looking for someone to ask why she was in the hospital, she saw him and her heart jolted!
"You're awake!"
Li Yuqing stepped forward, gently touched her forehead with his hand, but in his ears rang the name she had called out in her sleep, causing a pang in his heart.
Zhuo Jian sat up in bed, feeling the coolness of his hand on her eyes while she held her breath.
"The fever has subsided for now, but the doctor said it might spike again. If it gets that high again, you'll need to continue getting injections,"
he said as if it were something casual.
"I had a fever?"
Her memory was a bit hazy. After returning last night, she felt groggy and had planned to rest a bit before taking a bath and going to bed, never expecting to wake up at this hour.
