Chapter 138 Chen Mo in Weakness!
Hearing a knock on the door in a daze, Chen Mo weakly picked up his phone and glanced at it.

I didn't realize it was already 8 a.m.

As usual, Su Yuqing got up early to tidy up the room and make breakfast.

She discovered that Chen Mo, who usually gets up no later than seven o'clock, was completely out of the loop today, so she curiously knocked on the door once.

Since it was the weekend, she had considered that Chen Mo might oversleep, so she just knocked lightly and called out. When no one answered, she went back to doing her own thing.

By 7:30, almost half an hour after she had prepared breakfast, Chen Mo still hadn't gotten up, so she knocked on the door again.

There was still no response from inside the room.

At this moment, Su Yuqing began to feel a little worried.

She wasn't in the mood for breakfast; she was just thinking that if Chen Mo didn't react in another half hour, she would use the spare key to open Chen Mo's door directly.

Chen Mo had previously mentioned the location of the spare key.

When she knocked on the door again at eight o'clock, she still didn't hear a response, so she said she was going to use the spare key to open the door.

After checking the time, Chen Mo, who was in the room, realized that his mind was foggy from the fever and he didn't want to move at all, so he simply continued to lie down.

Soon, the door was opened from the outside with a key with a click.

In fact, Chen Mo's room was not locked at all.

Su Yuqing could simply turn the doorknob and come in.

Upon entering, Su Yuqing saw Chen Mo lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and she immediately walked over slowly.

"Chen Mo..."

She called out softly and gently.

"Hmm..." Chen Mo responded weakly.

Chen Mo wasn't immune to catching colds before, but today's cold seemed more severe than any of his previous ones.

I don't know if the lake water I choked on yesterday contained germs that worsened my condition.

"It's time to get up and eat. Is something wrong?" Su Yuqing squatted by Chen Mo's window, gently patting the blanket on Chen Mo's chest, and asked softly.

"I...cough cough...I think I've caught a cold. You should go out, or you might catch it." Chen Mo said in a slightly hoarse voice, trying to suppress the pain in his throat.

Su Yuqing immediately tensed up. She quickly reached out and touched Chen Mo's forehead, only to find it was frighteningly hot.

"It's so hot! You have a really high fever. This can't go on. Let's go to the hospital," Su Yuqing said anxiously.

At this moment, Chen Mo had no desire to move at all and refused, saying, "No need, cough cough... I'm still in good physical condition, I can get through this, cough... Besides, I don't really want to move right now."

He rarely goes to the hospital because he doesn't like the smell of hospitals. He used to get through colds on his own, unless he had a serious injury after fighting with a thug, in which case he would have to go to the hospital.

"Then hang in there, I'll go out and buy you medicine right away!" Seeing that Chen Mo didn't want to move, Su Yuqing indulged him and immediately changed her mind.

Chen Mo didn't intend to stop this idea, but suddenly, the scene of Su Yuqing's murder flashed rapidly and frequently before Chen Mo's eyes.

Startled, he quickly reached out and grabbed Su Yuqing, who had just gotten up to leave.

"Wait! Cough cough cough..." After Chen Mo pulled Su Yuqing back, he coughed violently a few times before he could say anything.

"There's medicine at home... we have it in the TV cabinet, you don't need to go out." Afraid that Su Yuqing might encounter danger if she went out alone, Chen Mo didn't dare to let her go out by herself.

Hearing Chen Mo say that, Su Yuqing turned around and smiled gently, patting the back of his hand lightly, saying, "Okay, I'll go get it for you right away." After saying that, she turned around and helped Chen Mo, who had just sat up in surprise, back onto the bed. She pulled up the blanket, patted him gently, and then got up to go to the TV cabinet in the living room to look for Chen Mo's cold medicine.

After quickly reviewing the expiration dates and instructions for the medications, she prepared a dosage for Chen Mo for one meal.

Then he returned with the medicine in a small bowl and a cup of warm water.

"These can be taken before meals. Take these medicines first, then have some breakfast."

Chen Mo was very weak at this time, and like a well-behaved child, he let Su Yuqing do whatever she wanted.

It was rare for Su Yuqing to encounter Chen Mo in this weakened state, but Su Yuqing found Chen Mo in this state unexpectedly cute.

He obediently does whatever I say, and he speaks in a lot of mumbled "uh-huh" sounds, just like a little kid.

"Cough... I don't want to eat breakfast..." Chen Mo wanted to refuse to eat breakfast.

At this moment, he had absolutely no appetite.

"No, you're already sick and your body needs nutrition. How can you skip breakfast? Wait a moment, I'll make you a breakfast suitable for people with colds right away."

"You lie still and continue sleeping for a while. I'll wake you up when breakfast is ready."

Su Yuqing coaxed Chen Mo like a child, her tone and actions full of tenderness and love.

Chen Mo had no choice but to nod vaguely.

Seeing this, Su Yuqing smiled and left.

Lying on the bed, Chen Mo felt discomfort in his throat. He knew that his constitution could not possibly have made him so sick from a cold.

It must have been the lake water last night that caused my infection.

If this continues, I'm afraid I really won't be able to avoid going to the hospital.

However, at this moment he really didn't want to move at all.

He felt tired even moving a finger, let alone going out.

He curled up in the blanket that Su Yuqing had pulled up for him and closed his eyes in a daze.

I don't know how much time passed, but suddenly a smell of wheat and milk wafted into my nostrils.

It turned out that Su Yuqing had returned with a specially prepared breakfast.

Given Chen Mo's cold, Su Yuqing prepared a small bowl of oatmeal porridge, some light side dishes, two custard buns, and a boiled egg with only the egg white and no yolk for Chen Mo.

She had just checked and found that eating egg yolks might increase the digestive burden on people with colds.

"Chen Mo, come sit up and have breakfast."

Su Yuqing gently woke Chen Mo, who was half asleep, and helped him sit up against the headboard. She also thoughtfully placed a cushion under his waist and brought him a small folding table.

This small table was originally used to sit on the bed and play on my laptop, but now it's perfect for holding plates.

After placing the plate on the small table, she picked up the spoon and looked at Chen Mo, saying, "I see you're not feeling well right now, so let me feed you."

Before Chen Mo could answer, Su Yuqing gently scooped up a spoonful of the overcooked oatmeal porridge, blew on it to cool it down, and then held it up to Chen Mo's lips with one hand while the other hand held it to his mouth.

This made Chen Mo feel a little embarrassed. Apart from being taken care of by his grandmother when he was a child, this was the first time he had ever appeared so weak in front of others.
