This Heroine Is Not Pretty - Chapter 19
“Dad don’t hit mom, you guys don’t hit me, please, uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
“what!”
Li Na screamed and woke up from the dream, she opened her eyes, it was dark all around, she couldn’t see anything clearly, and her throat was burning hot.
She turned on the light, walked unsteadily to the living room, bent over to pick up a glass of water from the water dispenser, Li Na swallowed it gently, and her throat hurt even after swallowing the water.
After drinking the water, she went back to the bedroom and fell into a deep sleep again.
“Dong dong dong.”
It was already 7:30, and when fairy saw that Li Na hadn’t gotten up yet, she knocked on the door of her bedroom.
Li Na sneered, opened her eyes with difficulty, opened and closed her mouth, but couldn’t even say “come in”.
Fairy, who didn’t wait for a response, twisted the door handle, pushed the door open, saw Li Na lying on the bed, and touched her forehead, which was still very hot.
“Li Na, wake up.”
Li Na half-squinted her eyes: “Well.”
“Look, your fever hasn’t subsided. Listen to me. You don’t have to go to work today. You can go to the hospital to see it later. If it doesn’t work, go for a drip.” Fairy frowned and said with concern.
“I’m fine,” Li Na’s voice was hoarse, and her voice was so small that it was difficult to listen to her: “Please ask me for a leave.”
“Well, I see, but I also have to go to work. After you sleep for a while, you can get up and go to the hospital for a look. Don’t resist any more, you know?”
“Um.”
fairy looked worriedly at Li Na who closed her eyes and fell asleep, and had to go to the company alone.
After arriving at the company, Fairy finished punching the card, went to the personnel department to get a leave form, filled it out for Li Na, asked for sick leave, and then took it to the general manager to sign it.
“General Manager,” Li Na knocked at the door.
“Come in.”
Li Na walked in with the list and stood at the table. Jiang Ke was browsing the news on his notebook. He was a little concerned about Li Na’s reaction yesterday: “Where is Li Na? Why didn’t I see her when I came up just now.”
“She’s sick,” Fairy was distressed. “It’s even worse than yesterday, and she can’t even get out of bed. Before I leave, I ask her to go to the hospital to get medicine. I’m here to give you this.”
fairy put the leave request form on the table, Jiang Ke glanced at it, it was the leave request form, and he held it with his right hand on the table: “You give Li Na a call.”
“Now?”
“Yes, now.”
“Oh,” fairy took out her cell phone and dialed Li Na’s cell phone: “Beep…beep…beep…”
“Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable.”
“No one answered,” Fairy felt a little nervous, she called again, but no one answered. “Maybe she’s already up and taking a shower, and she can’t hear the phone ringing.” Fairy comforted the general manager.
“Keep hitting.” Jiang Ke left these three words and got up and walked out. When he reached the door, he turned back and stretched out his hand: “I remember you and Li Na shared the lease, right? Do you have the key?”
fairy fumbled around in her pocket for a long time before she remembered: “in the drawer, I’ll go get it.”
Jiang Ke left the company, and Fairy kept calling Li Na’s cell phone while sitting in her seat, but it kept showing that no one answered. She was also worried, worried about what if something happened to Li Na and she became critically ill with a fever, one or two If you don’t pick up, but if no one picks up after 20 calls, then there is an accident.
fairy stomped on the spot anxiously, she looked at the time on her phone, twelve minutes had passed, and the general manager should have arrived soon.
“Hello? Fairy, is something wrong?”
The phone was connected without any precaution, and Fairy couldn’t help but growl: “What are you doing, no one answers so many calls to you?!”
Colleagues near fairy are all paying attention to her. fairy smiled awkwardly, got up and walked to the pantry with her phone.
“I was taking a shower just now, and the phone was in the bedroom. I didn’t hear it. What’s wrong? What’s the matter?”
“I called you several times and didn’t answer, I thought something happened to you.” Fairy whispered.
“What can happen?” Li Na chuckled, her voice hoarse, she walked from the bedroom to the living room as she spoke, ready to pour a glass of water to moisten her throat.
“It’s fine if nothing happens, by the way, I forgot to tell you, because I couldn’t get through to your phone and I was worried about what happened to you, so I gave the key to the general manager…”
“Click.” With the sound of the key unlocking, Li Na stood in the living room and turned her head.
“Crack.” The door handle was twisted open, the door was pushed open, Jiang Ke put one hand on the door handle panting, and when he opened the door and saw Li Na, he was stunned, without blinking his eyes.
“Tell the general manager to go back and see if you’re okay.” Fairy said the last sentence in the phone receiver. Li Na held the phone in her left hand and turned slightly to the direction of the door.
She didn’t move, just looked at Jiang Ke quietly, with a hint of surprise.
And Jiang Ke’s inner shock was more than that.
Because Li Na’s body was only wrapped in a white bath towel, her hair was slightly damp, hanging messily behind her and her slender and tender neck, collarbone, and chest.
The window of the balcony was open, and the early morning sun swayed on the off-white curtains. The cool wind blew through the curtains, as well as Li Na’s hair and skin, bringing Jiang Ke’s nose tip a refreshing and pleasant feeling that belonged to her. Fragrant taste.
Because Li Na was at home alone, her bath towel Li Na was also randomly wrapped horizontally, and the length was barely enough to cover her buttocks, less than half of her thighs, let alone sitting or bending over, just standing here, her buttocks and The private position seems to be exposed if the action is bigger.
In just ten seconds just now, Jiang Ke saw the most stunning and beautiful Li Na in his eyes.
Li Na doesn’t know how to scream instinctively, and her voice doesn’t allow her to scream. In this way, she stared blankly at Jiang Ke for about ten seconds. Before he could react, Jiang Ke had turned his back to her and closed the door.
“I’m sorry, I forgot to knock on the door without thinking about it.” Because I was too worried and anxious.
Li Na blinked and said to Fairy, “I’ll hang up first if I’m okay.”
“Bye-Bye.”
Li Na didn’t speak. She walked into the bedroom and closed the door before Jiang Ke turned around. He let out a sigh of relief, and his right hand slowly landed on his left chest.
His heart was beating vigorously, but it seemed to be beating faster than usual.
Li Na closed the door, followed her and leaned back against the door, her chest rising and falling with her breathing, her hands on her chest, trying to soothe her beating heart, Li Na closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths before opening them, Go to the closet to get clothes to change.
Li Na wore a more comfortable off-white daisy floral dress. Before her hair was blown, she could only drape a towel over her shoulders.
Opening the bedroom door, Jiang Ke was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking back at Li Na.
Li Na looked away, pretended to be natural, and said, “Why are you here, general manager?”
“I’m worried about what happened to you.”
Li Na was stunned, turned her back to him and wiped her hair with a towel, without any stagnation: “Don’t be joking, didn’t Fairy get through my phone and give you the key to help you come to me?”
Jiang Ke chuckled, got up and stood less than a meter behind her, looking at her profile: “No, because I’m worried about you, I’m afraid you’ll be uncomfortable, I’m here only for something.”
Li Na’s arm stopped, Jiang Ke’s voice told her how close he was to her, he could hug her with a single hand, and even the faint lemon fragrance on his body was teasing her.
Li Na bit her lip angrily, she ignored Jiang Ke, walked past him, brought the hairdryer from the bathroom, went back to the window in front of the balcony, plugged it in, was about to turn on the switch, and took it with both hands arrogantly and forcefully through the hair dryer.
“I’ll help you.” Jiang Ke smiled.
“No,” Li Na frowned, “I can come by myself.”
Jiang Ke smiled without saying a word. He moved a higher dining chair from the dining table with the back facing out, and let Li Na sit down: “You can’t blow your head when you have a headache, I’ll blow your hair for you.”
Li Na didn’t speak, but it was obvious that Jiang Ke’s attitude was tougher, but it was nothing to blow her hair, she thought.
Jiang Ke turned on the hair dryer and adjusted it to the warm, low setting. The gentle wind blew through Li Na’s hair and tickled her heart.
Jiang Ke moved very lightly. He tried to chat with Li Na: “How are you feeling today, are you better?”
“Well, much better.” Li Na lowered her eyes.
“I want to hear the truth, not these perfunctory lies,” Jiang Ke held the hairdryer in his right hand and tugged at Li Na’s hair with his left.
“You are my boss, I won’t lie to you.” Li Na defended in a hoarse voice.
“Look at you, look at you, listen,” Jiang Ke shook his head helplessly and said “tsk tsk”: “Your voice is hoarse, obviously worse than yesterday, do you think I’m a fool?”
“…” Li Na didn’t want to say anything.
“Does your head still hurt?”
“Much better,” Li Na replied.
“That is to say, it’s still not good, your head is still hurting, your voice is even more hoarse today, and your throat must be hurting.” Jiang Ke teased while gently stroking Li Na’s soft hair: “You take your youth as capital, and wait until you are old. But to suffer.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Jiang Ke smiled: “I’ll take you to the hospital for a good look.”
“No need, it will be fine in two days.” Li Na said the same thing. She didn’t want to take medicine, and she didn’t want to be taken to the hospital by the general manager. Who knows what extra things will happen in the process of getting along with the two of them. .
“By the way, did you forget to take your third shot of the vaccine? Today is the deadline, so I don’t dare to delay it any longer.” Jiang Ke said, and he hit it with one blow.
Li Na was crying, and in the end she still had to go to the hospital.
Jiang Ke didn’t speak any more, and An Xin was blowing Li Na’s hair. When it was almost time, he said, “Do you remember that you once saved me?”
Li Na nodded: “I didn’t remember it originally, didn’t you mention it before? Then I remembered it.”
“Yeah, speaking of this matter, I haven’t thanked you yet, I’m repaying you.”
“How to report?” Li Na asked absently with her head lowered.
The smile at the corner of Jiang Ke’s mouth disappeared, and his expression became serious where Li Na couldn’t see it. He turned off the hair dryer, placed his hand on the window sill, and gently bent over and hugged Li Na from behind.
Li Na was startled and struggled reflexively. Jiang Ke buried his chin on her neck, closed his eyes slightly, and said in a very light, extremely gentle tone, “Be good, don’t move.”
This sentence seemed to have magic power, Li Na quickly calmed down, looked at Jiang Ke in the right ear, and said word by word: “General manager, please tell me what you are going to do!”
Jiang Ke smiled, and he quickly touched the corner of Li Na’s mouth: “I want to make a promise to you.”
