Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl
Chapter 403 So Affable
Gu Muxue leaned over to support Lin Ruoxi, and suddenly she couldn't help laughing. She was laughing because she was angry.
Just whispering in Lin Ruoxi's ear, "Xue Rui is calling," was more effective than any other calls she had made before.
Lin Ruoxi's almond-shaped eyes were still blurry, but she tried to open them wide and look for her cell phone beside her.
"Who did he call?" Lin Ruoxi asked in a daze.
Gu Muxue held up the antipyretic medicine and brought it to Lin Ruoxi's mouth: "He didn't call, take the medicine first."
Gu Muxue felt helpless at the moment. Lin Ruoxi had become unconscious due to the high fever, and she was still wondering who Xue Rui had called.
"You...you are lying." Lin Ruoxi's voice was nasal.
Due to the physical discomfort and unfulfilled expectations, Lin Ruoxi's sense of loss reached its peak in an instant. Tears could not be controlled and slid down her cheeks, with drops of water dripping onto Gu Muxue's hands.
"Ruoxi, I..." Gu Muxue was speechless for a moment.
Lin Ruoxi stared at her with tears in her eyes, her red lips glistening, and her usually smooth chin wrinkled like a crumpled candy wrapper.
Lin Ruoxi now looks like a child who has suffered a great injustice, and she is the bad person who deceived the child.
An inexplicable sense of guilt came over her, making Gu Muxue a little dazed.
It is said that girls will become childish in front of the person they like. She herself does not feel much about it, but Lin Ruoxi is like this in front of Xue Rui.
Gu Muxue thought that because of her illness, Lin Ruoxi did not hide her emotions at this time, and seemed to be acting like a spoiled child.
No wonder Xue Rui likes to pinch Lin Ruoxi's face. At this time, Lin Ruoxi is too easy to bully, making people want to pinch her.
But what should she do now? Apologize and appease Lin Ruoxi?
Gu Muxue subconsciously lowered her attitude, like coaxing a child to take medicine: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have lied to you, then you take the medicine first, okay?"
Lin Ruoxi said softly: "Well...thank you."
With the sound of "tun tun tun", the glass was soon empty.
"Great." Gu Muxue's eyes curved: "Then I'll take you to the hospital, okay? Yu Minlan will be here soon."
However, when Lin Ruoxi heard the word "hospital", she shook her head like a rattle.
"Remember to call me when Rui calls..." Lin Ruoxi said as she was about to bury her face in the sofa pillow again.
Seeing this, Gu Muxue hurriedly helped Lin Ruoxi up: "Go to bed, go quickly."
She had also had a very high fever before, so she was very clear about Lin Ruoxi's current condition. She was probably weak all over and not conscious.
But Lin Ruoxi was able to let down her guard in front of her, proving that she still trusted her very much in her heart.
So while Lin Ruoxi was still awake, she wanted to move Lin Ruoxi to bed as soon as possible.
Gu Muxue suggested again: "Ruoxi, let me take you to the hospital."
"Don't go."
Lin Ruoxi was very resistant.
Gu Muxue had no choice but to stagger into the bedroom with the half-asleep Lin Ruoxi and lay her flat on the bed.
She took out a thermometer from the medicine box and took Lin Ruoxi's temperature, which was 39 degrees Celsius.
Gu Muxue's pupils trembled violently. She hurriedly dialed her family doctor in Hedong. She clamped the phone to her ear with her shoulder, washed the towel, and communicated anxiously with the person on the phone:
"Doctor Zhang, my friend has a fever of 39 degrees and doesn't want to go to the hospital. What should I do? He is already asleep."
"What's the cause?" The man on the other end of the phone was very stable.
"It seems like a cold wind is blowing?"
Gu Muxue felt very guilty because she guessed that she was the culprit.
"Take antipyretics, then apply cold compresses to your forehead, preferably your neck, limbs, and armpits..."
Gu Muxue's face turned red when she heard this. Doesn't this mean that she should strip Lin Ruoxi naked?
"Take your temperature every half an hour. If the fever persists, seek medical attention as soon as possible. After the fever subsides, pay attention to whether it recurs..."
"Thank you, Dr. Zhang. I'm sorry to bother you at night."
"Miss Gu, you are too polite. It is my duty."
"Goodbye, Doctor Zhang."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Muxue squatted beside Lin Ruoxi's bed with a basin of water. At this moment, Lin Ruoxi buried her head in the quilt, not giving her the chance to apply cold compress on her forehead.
Gu Muxue lifted the quilt, put a towel on Lin Ruoxi's head, and took out another towel to wipe Lin Ruoxi's slender white neck.
She leaned in closer to take a closer look. Lin Ruoxi's eyes moved unconsciously when she fell asleep, causing her eyelashes to tremble slightly, and the two blushes on her cheeks made her look even more adorable.
Gu Muxue stretched out the back of her hand and gently touched Lin Ruoxi's face, but the temperature did not drop.
"We've taken a shower together anyway, so it's no big deal..." Gu Muxue gritted her teeth, lifted the entire quilt, and began to help Lin Ruoxi take off her clothes.
To Gu Muxue's surprise, the whole process went very smoothly and Lin Ruoxi did not resist at all.
But there was a small accident when I was taking off my underwear.
The moment the buttons of her bra were unbuttoned, Lin Ruoxi actually stretched out her arms with a smile in her eyes, hugged her in her arms, and rubbed her little face against hers.
Gu Muxue's mind went blank. What happened?
However, before she could think clearly, she was suddenly pushed away by Lin Ruoxi.
Gu Muxue frowned, and she came to a conclusion - when she was unbuttoning her clothes, Lin Ruoxi mistook her for Xue Rui, and when she realized the touch was not right, she pushed her away...
"Xiao Rui is right about being a clingy person." Gu Muxue sighed in her heart and picked up the towel to wipe Lin Ruoxi's limbs.
As Gu Muxue wiped it again and again, more than an hour later, the mercury column on the thermometer stopped at the number 37. "Huh~" Gu Muxue let out a long sigh, and the big stone in her heart was finally put down.
Although it was only for more than an hour, a thin layer of water beads appeared on her smooth forehead due to her nervousness.
Listening to Lin Ruoxi's steady breathing, Gu Muxue took off her shoes and sat on the other side of the bed to rest, preparing to take Lin Ruoxi's temperature every half an hour to make sure that she didn't have a relapse.
In her spare time, she planned to chat with Xue Rui for a while, but she didn't know how to start.
Because Xue Rui had just told her to take good care of Lin Ruoxi before he left, she was thinking of scare Xue Rui by saying, "We are my girlfriend, why should I take care of her?"
But now...she no longer has the face to settle the score.
So she closed the chat box and opened Yu Minlan's chat interface.
Yu Minlan sent a lot of messages:
[Has Miss Ruoxi's fever subsided? Mr. Gu, do you want me to go up and take care of her? ]
Gu Muxue replied: [She is asleep. Please book a room nearby tonight. It is best not to sleep. I may call you at any time.]
At this moment, Yu Minlan was waiting in the parking lot, the light blue light of her mobile phone shining on her tired face.
She remembered that Gu Muxue's house had many rooms, so it would be more convenient for her to go upstairs to take care of her, so she walked towards the elevator while replying:
[Mr. Gu, I'm still worried. I'm already in the elevator. Please remember to open the door for me.]
Gu Muxue frowned and quickly replied: [Xiao Yu, you have crossed the line. I can let it go for the first time.]
After sending the message, Gu Muxue clicked the transfer button and transferred 1,000 yuan to Yu Minlan, with the note "overtime pay".
Gu Muxue is not like Lin Ruoxi. She has a clear position for everyone around her. Even though her house is big, she would never allow a driver to live in, even if she is a female driver.
Yu Minlan stood at the elevator entrance, with one finger on the button, but she was unable to press it.
She swallowed nervously, and this string of cold words made her shiver all over.
Miss Gu was usually very amiable and would occasionally chat with her as a friend, but today a few words made her face the reality.
The two words "Xiao Yu" were meant to remind her to put herself in the right position. She was just a maid who was ordered around and had to do whatever the lady wanted her to do.
However, Yu Minlan cares more about the second half of the sentence.
What does “it’s okay to let it go for the first time” mean?
What will you care about next time?
Yu Minlan recalled the many TV dramas she had watched. Drivers knew too many secrets and often did not have a good ending!
Gu Muxue gave her 1000 yuan in overtime pay. If she added a few zeros to the end of this number and gave it to others, would it be enough to buy her own life?
Thinking of this, Yu Minlan suddenly felt as if there were a pair of cold eyes staring at her from behind.
She subconsciously shrank her neck and looked around. The dark underground parking lot seemed particularly eerie.
A gust of cold wind blew by, Yu Minlan shrugged her shoulders, folded her arms and ran towards the car muttering to herself.
"Boss Xue, I shouldn't have said bad things about you behind your back. Compared to Miss Gu, you are so kind and amiable..."
"Huh? Something seems wrong? Why did I become Miss Gu's driver?"
……
At the same time, in an international hotel in Shanghai.
"Ah!"
Xue Rui was sitting face to face with a man in the hall, drinking tea and chatting, when suddenly he sneezed several times in succession.
Xue Rui threw the tissue into the trash can, rubbed his nose and smiled: "I wonder who is saying bad things about me behind my back."
The man in front of him is an old acquaintance, Qingfeng from Leyou, the person in charge of the acquisition of Candy Crush Saga.
He and Qingfeng have always had contact. Some time ago, he asked Qingfeng to use his connections to delete Lin Ruoxi's posts. He mentioned the investment case this time, but he didn't expect Qingfeng to follow suit.
"Someone must be missing you." Qingfeng said with a smile.
Xue Rui chuckled: "That's right."
The two girlfriends will naturally sneeze more.
"Speaking of Lin Ruoxi, what is she doing now?" Qingfeng asked curiously.
He created popular games and many high-quality software in high school, set a record in the college entrance examination, has a high IQ and strong execution ability. It is impossible for such a person to study step by step.
"Have you heard of generative AI?" Xue Rui pinched his brows.
At first he could still understand some of it, but now he is becoming more and more confused about Lin Ruoxi.
Because he had dinner with many professors some time ago, including those from psychology and philosophy. What he couldn't understand the most was why there was also one from Chinese language?
Does this have anything to do with AI?
He didn't understand, but Xue Rui was very clear about one thing: professional matters should be left to professionals. If Lin Ruoxi wanted to do it, she could do it, and he just needed to support her wholeheartedly.
Anyway, he and Lin Ruoxi signed a "betting agreement". If he succeeded, it would be a feat that could change history. If he failed, he could get a concubine. In any case, he would not suffer any loss.
"Never heard of it." Qingfeng shook his head. This term was too professional.
"I don't understand either." Xue Rui spread his hands.
"Let's not talk about her, let's talk about you. I can understand the universal campus, but what is a shared power bank? Many mobile phones require replacement batteries." Qingfeng didn't understand.
"It won't be possible to change it in a few years. Integrated design is the trend, and the integration of current mobile phones is still too low," said Xue Rui.
"Even so, I feel..." Qingfeng paused here.
He remembered that Xue Rui was a business gangster who had registered most of the elimination games, so they were forced to acquire a small workshop.
"Have you registered the trademark for this thing?" (End of this chapter)
