Rebirth: Never Live Up to You - C71
In the past when they were living together, Chi Yinan had almost never gotten sick. Occasionally, he would take a few pills with a cold, but now, he was so fragile.
Lifting his head, he sighed. He was probably too old!
By the time they entered, half an hour had passed. Chi Yinan seemed to have fallen asleep on her shoulder.
“Open your mouth.”
Chi Yinan looked at the elderly doctor, then looked at the woman beside him, and reluctantly opened his mouth.
“Inflammation of the tonsil, measure the temperature first.”
Chi Yinan had never liked coming to the hospital. Since he was young, he had been a family doctor and had been treated to and fro by doctors for the first time since he was young, and now and then, it was inevitable that his face would turn bad and stinky. Su Wenjin told the doctor about his illness as he curled up on a chair. It was time to take out the thermometer, and his warm fingers gripped the small metal under it.
The old doctor took the thermometer. The temperature was almost 40 degrees. He looked at the patient with suspicion, “40 degrees, two bottles of water first.”
When she heard 40 degrees Celsius, she couldn’t help but be a little worried. “The temperature is so high, can the hanging water go down?”
“It’s fine. I’ll test the temperature after hanging up the water.”
Chi Yinan sat on the chair and watched the nurse put the needles on her skin. He felt a burst of pain, but he was still able to endure it, and the clamor around the IV drip room made him uncomfortable. His dark eyebrows were furrowed from the moment he entered the room.
Chi Yinan was originally leaning on a chair, but then he slowly leaned towards the woman beside him, leaning on her shoulder like a scoundrel. Chi Yinan was originally leaning against a chair, but then he slowly leaned towards the woman beside him, leaning on her shoulder like a scoundrel.
“Warm Jin.”
He leaned against her shoulder and closed his eyes, calling her name. She flipped through the magazine and interrupted absent-mindedly, “Don’t talk. You’re crazy.”
Chi Yinan was silent. As expected, he didn’t say anything. He quietly floated on her shoulder and smelled her fragrance. It was light and pleasant.
It was just some gossip about celebrities, and unfortunately, there was also gossip about Xu Bing. She glanced through it, which probably meant that her fiance had gotten pregnant first, and it was really boring, so she put it on her lap and tried to move her shoulders, but he pressed down too heavily, so she let it go.
The two bottles of water were hung up until nearly six in the afternoon. When they were done, they took their temperature and retreated. The doctor said that he was afraid that they would get hot in the evening, so he prescribed some medicine and took note of the temperature when he went to bed. If the temperature rose again, he would come to the hospital.
The ride back was a lot smoother, and the car pulled into the basement parking lot, took him back, tucked him in, and left the house, thinking it was night and he hadn’t eaten yet and he had a cold, so she went back and cooked some millet porridge with some special pickles on it and carried the plate over.
Chi Yinan felt much better. His dizzy state gradually cleared up. Lying on the bed, he opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. Hearing the sound of the door being locked, he turned his head.
“Get up and eat some porridge.” The temperature was not hot at all. Hearing her words, Chi Yinan obediently got up from the bed and leaned against the bed, taking the gruel that was curling in the fog. The rice porridge, the pickled vegetables on it were extremely color and looked to be particularly appetizing.
She sat on the chair beside the bed and watched as he finished eating, then asked for another bowl of porridge. She went back to fill the bowl, and he finished eating quickly, then licked his lips and asked if she still had any left. She was shocked, since when could Chi Yinan eat so much?
“Chi Yinan, how many days have you been hungry?” She asked absentmindedly as she was cleaning up the dishes.
“Warm Jin, I want to take a bath.” She didn’t answer his question. She pulled at her clothes, probably having a fever. She was covered in sweat. According to his clean personality, it was normal for him to want to take a bath.
“Mm, go ahead.”
She packed up the plate and was about to carry it back, but she was scared by his stare. She said, “Chi Yinan, you have a fever, don’t you have limbs.”
After saying that, he felt that his words were a bit too harsh, but he didn’t bother to find a way out for them. He carried his plate out of his house and fed the sheepdog some dog food in the basin before leaving.
When she got back, she went to the bathroom and took a shower. In the fog, she remembered that the doctor had told him that he might get a fever in the evening, that the pills must be taken, and that she should pay attention to the temperature of his body, thinking that, given his personality, he probably wouldn’t take any medicine at all.
No one answered the door, remembering what he had said before he left. The key was under the mat in front of the door.
The room was dark and quiet. She turned on the light in the living room and knocked on the bedroom door, but when she pushed it open and entered the room, there was no light, and while she was wondering, the door to the bathroom suddenly opened and Chi Yi came out with a white towel in his hand, wiping his wet hair. It was only a moment of surprise to see her standing in the room.
She went out and poured a cup of hot water for him to take in. When she came in, Chi Yinan had already put on his pajamas and was sitting on the bed without a blanket. She first reached out her hand to test the temperature on his forehead, and unexpectedly, it was even hotter than before, “Yes, have a good night’s sleep.”
“Warm Jin, thank you.”
“If you really want to thank me, then I’ll move back. Chi Yinan, we’re divorced, there’s no need to be neighbors anymore.”
“Well, I’ll think about it.”
Seeing him take the medicine, she hesitated on whether he didn’t say anything about opening the door to go back home, didn’t ask him about his situation the next morning when he went to work, came close to being late for work again in the morning, there were too many people on the bus, plus the traffic jam, she firmly decided that she wanted to buy a substitute car. Although she rejected Chi Yinan’s maintenance fee of billions after the divorce, she saved up all the turnover of “Shang O” previously, so these few years it wasn’t a small amount of money, so buying a car wasn’t a problem at all.
Thinking this way, she decided to go to the 4S store to take a look at a car after work. If it was okay with her, she would buy one as soon as possible. Thinking this way, she felt happy.
Chi Yinan didn’t go to the company today. His fever had already subsided, and his illness was like a sap. After the videoconference, he leaned back in his chair on the balcony, while the Warm Shadowdog curled up at his feet. From time to time, it would whimper softly, flick its tail, and ingratiate itself with Chi Yinan.
When he woke up it was dark and the lights were on and there was a noise outside and he opened the door and saw that it was open on the other side.
Su Wenjin didn’t expect that Su Xiao Yun would come here. He was so angry that he wanted to strangle her.
“Su Wenjin, are you and Chi Yinan really divorced?”
“Yes, we’ve been separated for over a month.” She went to the kitchen and poured a cup of hot water. No matter how she said that the person who came was a guest, she still had to do things according to etiquette, even though their relationship was extremely shallow.
When Su Xiao Yun heard this, the veins on his old face showed, and his teeth clattered loudly. He reached out and grabbed a glass of hot water on the tea table, and threw it at her, she was standing far away, the cup was not far from her feet, but the broken glass still splashed onto her feet. Luckily she was wearing thick slippers, and it didn’t hurt, so Su Xiao Yun saw that it didn’t hit anyone, and was a bit unhappy.
“Su Wenjin, I think you must be crazy to leave a good Mrs. Chi behind. Who else do you think would dare to marry you after you leave Chi Yinan? Do you know what Mrs. Chi’s name represents in S City?” The more Su Xiao Yun talked, the angrier he got. He had even blamed the failure of the company’s investment on her, “You’re the same as your mother, you’re going to lose money. What’s the use of raising you up so big, even men can’t tie you up …”
Three years ago, she had refused to marry Chi Yinan, and he had said those words to her. Back then, he had only scolded her, and now, even his mother was involved in this. She was so angry that she wanted nothing more than to die with him.
“Su Xiao Yun, there is no need for us to continue our discussion, we must not meet again in the future.”
When Su Xiao Yun heard this, his anger rose again, and he shouted: “You want to cut off all relations with me, you truly are an unfilial daughter, what value do you think you have now, if you leave Chi Yinan, you are nothing.”
On top of it, there was a photo of her mother and herself falling to the ground. She stepped forward and picked it up, while Su Xiao Yun’s leg kicked over her body, but she was caught off guard, as she fell head first onto a pillar, feeling her brain become murky, her vision became dark, it took a long time for her to recover from her shock, Su Xiao Yun did not expect her kick to be so powerful, she touched the blood on her forehead and laughed, “Su Xiao Yun, we are almost done.”
When Su Xiao Yun heard this, he became even angrier. He wanted to grab her by the collar and push her to the side. He stumbled a little but stopped himself from doing so.
“Who allowed you to touch her, Su Xiao Yun?”
He stretched out his hand to pull Su Wenjin up. He looked rough on the outside but was actually very gentle on the outside so that he could protect Su Xiao Yun behind him. Su Xiao Yun’s face changed, he did not expect to meet Chi Yi Nan and being in such a state, he could not help but feel annoyed.
“Director Chi, my daughter has troubled you. As your father, I didn’t educate you well.”
Su Xiao Yun’s attitude in front of Chi Yi Nan was never high, but every time Chi Yi Nan would lower his head, but Chi Yi Nan was currently burning with anger, burning his heart and lungs. The thing he held in his hand had actually hit him when he was not paying attention, and a few lines of blood could be seen on his white forehead.
