Chapter 847: Si Zhengting, You Scoundrel! (2)
Zhuang Nainai was shocked . She turned around and saw the iron gates opening . The butler stood there, looking at Zhuang Nainai as he said, “Madam, I knew you would come . Please enter . ”
Zhuang Nainai: “…”
The gates were already open . Could she still leave?
The answer seemed to be no .
Moreover… she was really worried about Si Zhengting’s condition . So she gritted her teeth and walked in .
On their way into the villa, Uncle Li explained, “Sir has been like this since he was young . Whenever he’s ill, he won’t go to the hospital . Neither would he get an injection or take medicine . He would just pull through without medical intervention . He won’t let anyone get near him . This time, he has a really high fever, but he is still stubbornly refusing help . We can’t even feed him water . Madam, quickly go upstairs and see him . He’s been sick for a couple of days . We’ve put him on a drip to bring his temperature down, but he’s still been struggling to get well . He’s been having a high fever for a week . If his temperature still doesn’t go down, we won’t know how else we can help him!”
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes narrowed . He’d been having a high fever for a week? How could it be that serious?!
She hurriedly went upstairs with Uncle Li . When she entered the bedroom, her gaze immediately landed on Si Zhengting .
He lay in bed, a blanket draped over him . He looked frail . His face was flushed, his eyes tightly shut . His characteristic masculine aura permeated the room .
Uncle Li handed her the antipyretics . “Madam, this is the medicine that Sir should be taking . ”
Zhuang Nainai lowered her head and looked at the medicine, then looked at the man on the bed . His entire body was burrowed under the blankets . Only his head was uncovered . His current state made her forget about his haughty, cold, and elegant self . Now, he looked like an overgrown child . She swallowed the words on the tip of her tongue and took the proffered pills from Uncle Li’s hands .

Uncle Li took the opportunity to turn around, planning to leave .
“Uncle Li,” Zhuang Nainai called .
Uncle Li turned back .
Zhuang Nainai was silent for a moment, then said, “When he wakes up, you are not allowed to let him know that I was here . ”
Uncle Li was taken aback . “Madam, this…”

Zhuang Nainai pursed her lips . “If you can’t promise me this, I’ll leave now . ”
Uncle Li was speechless . Could he not promise her, then?
Uncle Li closed the door . Only the two of them were in the room now .
Zhuang Nainai’s gaze was drawn to his face . She couldn’t take her eyes off of him .
Now that no one was around, she could size him up unabashedly .

His already slim face had grown gaunt . His cheekbones were protruding, causing the contours of his face to look sharper and tougher .
At that moment, he seemed to be dreaming . He raved briefly and unintelligibly .
Zhuang Nainai brought her ears closer to his mouth and managed to make out some of what he was saying . “Nainai… get out of the way! Nainai, don’t leave me…”
When she heard his words, it was as though her heart had suddenly been grasped by a huge hand . She suddenly felt an excruciating pain .
Her eyes watered and her nose tingled . She pursed her lips and took a step forward . She couldn’t help but say softly, “If you can’t bear not seeing me, how could you bear to send me away?”
After she said these words, she sighed . She couldn’t help but reach out and stroke his forehead .
His burning hot forehead shocked her to the core . And he furrowed his brows, moving his head slightly, as though he didn’t like being touched . But after feeling the coolness of her touch, he turned his head back, allowing her hand to rest on his forehead . He relaxed, even rubbing his forehead against her palm, as though he was a cat trying to please its master .
