Chapter 548: Chapter 548
Han Mingyue’s mind went ’buzz’ in an instant! He only dared to sneak a peek before quickly turning his gaze away! And he whispered sternly, "Put your hands down!"
"Oh!" Having been closely examining her own belly, Zhen Yu obediently released her hands, and her pajamas gently fell, covering her beautiful abs.
Just as Han Mingyue was about to breathe a sigh of relief from hearing her agree, Zhen Yu looked up and said, "I’ve put my hands down, now you lift yours up and let me have a look!"
Han Mingyue’s face turned red instantly! Without thinking, he whispered a firm, "No!"
"Why?" Zhen Yu was puzzled and explained, "Zhen Yan has shown me his!"
A wave of jealousy surged in Han Mingyue’s heart!
"You’re not allowed to look at his anymore!"
"Then you should show me yours!"
Zhen Yu’s response was so smooth! It choked Han Mingyue up, leaving him stuttering and at a loss for words! In the end, he could only say, "...Aren’t you going to the toilet?!"
"Ah? Oh!" His remark reminded Zhen Yu of her urge to pee! She hurriedly muttered as she rushed into the toilet. "Wait till I’m done and you show me! I really suspect you’ve been secretly training behind my back..."
In fact, Zhen Yu guessed right! Han Mingyue had indeed been training, but it wasn’t exactly in secret.
The whole thing started when Han Mingyue’s roommate Jia Ming was mocked while playing basketball, so he came back to the dorm and suddenly declared he wanted to work out! He even insisted on dragging all his roommates to join him.
At first, everyone was worn down by his nagging and had no choice but to accompany him.
But later, they all gradually slacked off.
Only Han Mingyue figured it’s just a matter of doing some push-ups and sit-ups before lights out each night, and it wouldn’t take much time... so he consistently stuck with it.
Han Mingyue sat alone on the living room sofa, lost in thoughts, while Zhen Yu was busily going in and out.
By the time she came out of the bathroom after her shower, half an hour had passed.
Seeing her walking towards him, Han Mingyue snapped back to reality and stood up abruptly!
"Are you hungry? Change your clothes and let’s go out to eat! Also, do you not have a thermometer at home?"
"I’m hungry! I’ll just make something to eat myself in a bit!" After answering twice, Zhen Yu threw herself into the sofa, posing lazily and asked, "Why do you need a thermometer? You don’t seem to have a fever?"
Han Mingyue leaned over to try her forehead again, feeling the temperature wasn’t high before dropping his hand.
"Don’t you feel unwell? I heard you coughing, you better check your temperature!"
"Oh." Suddenly stretching and yawning, Zhen Yu mentioned, "I want some water."
"I’ll get it for you!" responded Han Mingyue immediately.
As he turned and walked to the kitchen,
Zhen Yu quickly took the opportunity to fish out the thermometer from her bag and shook it out of its plastic case! After a couple of shakes and taking a look, the mercury stopped at 38 degrees!
She doesn’t know who last had a fever and didn’t shake it down.
Shake it two more times, take another look, still 38 degrees!
Shake it again! Look again!
After shaking it three times and it still didn’t drop below 37 degrees, Zhen Yu was irritated...
This damn thing is too freaking hard to shake!
Just waking up early felt sticky all over, and without eating or drinking, I just took a shower, and now I am totally drained! I don’t have the energy to deal with it! Zhen Yu simply raised her hand and threw the thermometer forcefully onto the sofa!
To hell with this! I’m not taking my temperature anymore!!
When Han Mingyue came back with a cup of warm water, she just saw her childish behavior, and couldn’t help but laugh: "What’s the matter with you? Why are you throwing the thermometer around?"
"This crappy thing! It’s useless!" Zhen Yu said bitterly, and grabbed the cup of water, gulping it all down in one go! After drinking, she let out a sigh, "Ah..."
Now that my throat is not dry and my stomach isn’t empty, I feel much better.
"I want to get something to eat, do you want to eat with me?" Zhen Yu asked without moving.
"No, I had breakfast before I came here." Han Mingyue replied while vigorously shaking the thermometer, "What are you going to make? Do you need any help?"
"No need! I’ll just fry an egg... never mind! I’ll just have some instant noodles instead!" Zhen Yu finally shifted from a slumped to a sitting position, stretched her feet onto the ground and slipped on her slippers.
"Then let me make it for you! I can fry the egg too." Han Mingyue held Zhen Yu’s shoulder and presented the thermometer to her: "Measure your temperature first."
"Oh." Zhen Yu took the thermometer with one hand and started unbuttoning her pajamas with the other.
Han Mingyue’s temple vein almost popped, and she immediately held Zhen Yu’s hand!
Zhen Yu was startled and looked up at him confusedly: "What are you doing?!"
Han Mingyue, face flushed, retorted: "What are you doing?!!"
"Taking my temperature! Isn’t that what you asked?" Zhen Yu earnestly replied.
"Just put it directly inside your collar!"
"That’s too troublesome! It’s not like I’m not wearing anything underneath."
Han Mingyue embarrassingly and silently released Zhen Yu’s hand.
Then he watched as she unbuttoned the first button of her pajamas, revealing the thin white straps inside... and a rounded shoulder.
Han Mingyue intentionally stayed in the kitchen a little longer, feeling it was about time Zhen Yu was done taking her temperature before he came out with a bowl of prepared noodles.
Sure enough, Zhen Yu was already checking the thermometer, her pajama buttons neatly done up.
"What’s the temperature? Drink this first, then I’ll go fry some eggs for you."
"Um... 37.8 degrees, just fry one egg!" Zhen Yu’s voice was even hoarser than before.
"Alright! You have a slight fever! Where did you find the thermometer? Is there any cold medicine with it?"
"Yes, I seem to remember there is some Cold-FX powder. You go fry the egg; I’ll find the medicine myself."
"Okay! Take the medicine after eating the egg!"
Once Han Mingyue left, Zhen Yu rummaged through the commonly used medications in the space and laid them out on the coffee table, then began to pick through the bottles and jars. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel~fire~net
After a satisfying meal and taking her medicine, Zhen Yu was still slumped on the sofa, not wanting to move! Even when Han Mingyue suggested she go back to bed, she refused to budge. Han Mingyue had no choice but to follow her command and went to the bedroom to fetch a thin blanket for her.
He had just sat down a person’s distance away when Zhen Yu called him, "Han Mingyue, come here."
Her voice was almost entirely hoarse...
Han Mingyue thought she was feeling unwell, quickly moved next to her and asked with concern: "Are you feeling very uncomfortable? Is it a headache? Or is your throat hurting too much? Maybe I can go home and ask my dad,"
