On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter

Chapter 142 Uneasiness!
As Su Yuqing turned to leave, Chen Mo still had the illusion that once she left his sight, she might never appear again.

After Su Yuqing's figure was completely out of sight, he suddenly remembered the phone call he had received when he was a criminal police officer, whether it was a dream or he had really traveled back to the time.

"If it's a dream, then everything said on the phone is just wishful thinking. But if it's reality, then who exactly is that death row inmate that Yuqing knows?"

The lightning struck at the most crucial moment, but he just happened not to hear it.

He only remembered a few key pieces of information: first, the other party was a death row inmate; second, the other party knew Su Yuqing; and third, the other party had very few opportunities to contact Su Yuqing.

If we work backwards from these three points...

While it might just be a fantasy, it could also be real information.

After all, the time travel had already actually happened, so there was nothing fantastical that Chen Mo couldn't accept anymore.

He believed he could travel back and forth again.

Therefore, he wouldn't simply dismiss what just happened as a dream.

Instead, it was treated as a feasible lead and investigated.

After all, it's better to believe something is true than false.

If it's fake and nothing is found in the end, then the progress is no different from the beginning.

If it's true, then if we investigate diligently, we might find a breakthrough.

However, Chen Mo was suffering from a cold and fever, and his head was spinning. He felt a headache whenever he tried to think, so he had to give up thinking for the time being.

He leaned against the headboard, wanting to sleep but afraid to.

I'm terrified that if I fall asleep, I'll be back in my days as a detective. If I can't come back then, I'll be devastated.

Just as he was drifting off to sleep, a cool sensation suddenly covered his burning forehead.

The next moment, a cool sensation came from their burning cheeks.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Su Yuqing sitting in front of her with a playful smile on her face.

Her hands were covering her face.

"How is it? Does this cooling down make you feel more comfortable?" Su Yuqing asked Chen Mo with a smile.

Feeling her icy little hands gradually warmed by his body heat, Chen Mo smiled and stretched out his hands from under the covers, covering Su Yuqing's hands with his own. Only when he could truly feel the warmth of her palms against his cheeks did Chen Mo feel at ease again.

"It's very comfortable," Chen Mo said with a smile.

"It seems what they said online is actually somewhat helpful." Su Yuqing smiled and gently withdrew her hand, flipping the towel over Chen Mo's head. At the same time, she reached out to feel the temperature of the side that had just been turned over. She said with some concern, "Chen Mo, your fever is quite high. Should we go to the hospital to get it checked out?"

"Let's wait a day. If there's no improvement, we can go to the hospital later. My body can still handle it." Chen Mo said with a smile, then lay down again, but left one hand outside to gently hold Su Yuqing's small hand. "With you here, it's much more effective than a doctor."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Su Yuqing's heart was also pounding as Chen Mo's hot palm held her small hand tightly.

I always feel that Chen Mo is more likely to convey his inner feelings when he is sick.

She smiled and gently stroked Chen Mo's cheek, hoping he would wake up feeling better.

Although he closed his eyes, Chen Mo was only meditating, because he dared not fall asleep again.

When Su Yuqing reached out and covered her cheek, Chen Mo could clearly feel her gentle touch.

Soon, the towel on his forehead was replaced, and the cool touch made Chen Mo feel very comfortable. Before he knew it, Chen Mo, who hadn't wanted to sleep, drifted off to sleep again.

This time, however, he didn't dream anymore; he simply drifted off to sleep.

Time flew by and it was already noon.

Seeing that Chen Mo was sleeping soundly, Su Yuqing did not disturb him.

When a patient has a poor appetite due to illness, they do not necessarily need to eat three meals a day like a normal person; otherwise, it may actually increase the burden on their body.

With Chen Mo asleep, Su Yuqing let him sleep as well.

We can make him something to eat later.

When she was by Chen Mo's side, holding his hand, she always felt that this boy, who seemed capable of doing anything on his own, harbored a deep sense of unease deep inside.

But the reason for this unease is unknown.

Whether it was his sleeping posture or the way he tightly gripped her hand, Su Yuqing could sense the tension and unease in his subconscious.

Although she didn't know where Chen Mo's unease came from, Su Yuqing gently comforted him from the side, "Everything will be alright, sleep peacefully, I will always be by your side."

Su Yuqing dared to speak so boldly only because she knew Chen Mo couldn't hear her.

Even in his sleep, these words still reached Chen Mo's heart, making him feel even more relaxed.

As soon as Su Yuqing finished speaking, she felt Chen Mo's hand gradually lighten, and she couldn't help but look at Chen Mo with some surprise.

I thought he had woken up.

Seeing that he was still sleeping soundly, Su Yuqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She can be very bold at times, but most of the time she is quite shy.

After gently placing Chen Mo's hand on the blanket, Su Yuqing tiptoed away from the towel on Chen Mo's forehead and left the room.

Cold compresses are not suitable for prolonged use.

Once the patient feels more comfortable, you can stop.

After sensing that Chen Mo's temperature wasn't very high, Su Yuqing packed her things and left the room.

After a while, she returned to Chen Mo's room with her "Five Years of College Entrance Examination and Three Years of Simulation" materials, placed a small chair in front of Chen Mo's bedside table, and used Chen Mo's bedside table as a desk to start studying.

Seemingly sensing that the hand tightly clenched in his palm had disappeared, Chen Mo, who had lost his sense of security, suddenly woke up.

He quickly looked around, and only when he saw Su Yuqing sitting obediently next to him doing practice questions did he breathe a sigh of relief.

He slowly turned to the side, and Su Yuqing, sensing the movement, immediately turned her head to look in his direction.

Seeing that Chen Mo had only turned around, she smiled, went over to pull the blanket up for Chen Mo, patted him gently, and then immediately sat back down to focus on doing her homework.

Only then did Chen Mo secretly open his eyes again, quietly watching Su Yuqing's profile as she diligently worked on her problem.

Although he knew Su Yuqing was beautiful, Chen Mo rarely paid close attention to her.

Looking at her focused expression as she worked, Chen Mo felt that Su Yuqing was radiating a unique charm.
