Chapter 397 Fiance

Finally, the doorknob rang softly.

Xu Ji withdrew his outstretched hand and turned his body slightly.

The door of the bathroom was opened, and Gu Xi had already changed his clothes, but he still looked a bit embarrassed.

Xu Ji's eyes fell on her hair which was still wet, and there was still some foam hanging from one side.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, walked over, pulled her to the shower, and said softly, "Lower your head."

Gu Xi did so.

After Xu Ji tested the water temperature, he took the shower and helped her rinse her hair again.

Then he pulled her to sit in front of the sofa, took the hair dryer, and dried her hair carefully.

Gu Xi was like a puppet at the mercy of others, his eyes were blank, as if he had been cut off from this world.

When Xu Ji bent over to hug her, she trembled reflexively.

Xu Ji glanced down and put her on the bed.

Then adjusted the infusion bag and inserted the needle into her thin arm,
"I added some medicine to help you sleep, don't think about anything, just close your eyes and have a good sleep." Xu Ji put his finger on the center of her eyebrows, which was a little hot, and asked her again: "Do you want to drink some water?" ?”

Gu Xi closed his eyes and didn't speak.

Xu Ji glanced at her dry lips, took a cotton swab, moistened it, and moistened her lower lip a little.

Then I went to pull a chair and sat down beside the bed.

Probably the medicine took effect, Gu Xi quickly fell asleep.

It's just that she didn't sleep well this time. Xu Ji saw her frowning and painful expression countless times, as if she had experienced some inescapable nightmare.

Xu Ji endured it for a long time, but still stretched out his hand and held her hand in his palm.

……

When Gu Xi opened his eyes, there was no one in the room.

This is a strange place.

She stared blankly at the ceiling, and it took a while to remember what happened last night.

She subconsciously looked towards the door.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but as soon as her eyes fell, the door was pushed open.

Gu Xi was caught off guard and met Xu Ji's eyes.

"Are you awake?" Xu Ji asked.

Gu Xi gave a soft "um", then seemed a little embarrassed, she lowered her eyes, and quietly buried her face in the quilt.

Xu Ji walked to the bed, leaned slightly, and put his hand on Gu Xi's forehead.

Gu Xi suddenly became stiff.

Fortunately, Xu Ji just posted it briefly and then let go: "Fortunately, the fever is gone, how do you feel now? Do you have strength? Go and wash up briefly, get up and eat something."

Gu Xi gave another soft "hmm".

Seeing her trying to shrink into the quilt, Xu Ji said helplessly, "I'll wait for you outside."

"Ah."

After the door was closed, Gu Xi slowly revealed his head and looked at the room.

The bed she was lying on was very narrow, and it was no different from a hospital bed. The only difference should be the color tone in this room, which was a very gentle pink-green, even a little bit dreamy.

Even the gauze curtains are light milky yellow.

This is too girly, right?
Gu Xi found it incredible.

She lifted the quilt and got out of the bed, probably because she hadn't eaten for a long time, her legs were a little weak, she held the bedside to relax, and then she got better.

A set of soft home clothes and a pair of soft mint green plush slippers are neatly placed on the bench at the end of the bed.

Gu Xi curled up her toes, a little surprised that Xu Ji was such a meticulous person.

After washing and changing clothes and going out, Xu Ji had already put breakfast on the dining table.

Gu Xi walked over and sat down, and there was only a bowl of vegetable porridge in front of her.

Gu Xi picked up the spoon and stirred it, then secretly glanced at Xu Ji who was sitting opposite.

Xu Ji ate the same vegetable porridge as she did.

When she peeked at him for the third time, Xu Ji put down the spoon and looked at her: "What's wrong? It's not to your taste? You haven't eaten for a long time, so you can only eat something light."

After a pause, he said, "It's best to pay attention to your diet in the past two weeks."

"No..." Gu Xi whispered, "I'm just curious, why would Professor Xu eat this like me?"

Xu Ji paused for a moment, then laughed lightly: "It's nothing, I've done too much."

Gu Xi was surprised: "Professor Xu made it himself?"

Xu Ji: "It doesn't look like it?"

Gu Xi blushed, and hurriedly lowered her head, pretending to be serious about eating.

After breakfast, Xu Ji went to clean up the dishes, while Gu Xi sat on the sofa, staring at the living room in a daze.

The decoration of the living room is quite different from that of the bedroom. It is completely masculine, simple and clean, and there are almost no unnecessary things.

When she was in a daze, Xu Ji came over with the cup and the medicine, and handed them to her: "Take the medicine, it's anti-inflammatory, and I'll change it for you later."

Gu Xi reached out and took the medicine.

After taking the medicine, Xu Ji brought the medicine box over to change her medicine, but Gu Xi shrank her wrist back: "I, I don't think there is any need to change the medicine, Professor Xu, last night, thank you last night .I'm almost, time to go."

Xu Ji looked at her.

Gu Xi dodged his eyes slightly, trying to divert the embarrassing situation: "Well, Professor Xu, why is the decoration style of your bedroom so different from the living room..."

Xu Ji put the gauze he took out back into the medicine box, and then replied, "That's a ward that I don't want patients to think it's a ward."

Gu Xi was taken aback.

Xu Ji explained: "This is also part of my studio. Some patients require privacy and are unwilling to go in and out of places like psychological clinics. This environment can make them more relaxed."

Gu Xi understood: "So...Professor Xu brought me back last night?"

Xu Ji stared at Gu Xi for a while before saying "hmm".

Gu Xi looked relieved.

Xu Jiqing closed his eyes, then opened them, his eyes fell on her wrist, and asked, "Change the medicine?"

This time, Gu Xi didn't object, and obediently extended his hand over.

It turned out that Professor Xu just regarded her as a patient.

Then she can rest assured.

Xu Ji held her wrist, carefully helped her change her medicine, and didn't ask any unnecessary words about the wound on her wrist.

This made Gu Xi obviously relieved.

It's just that before she breathed a sigh of relief, she heard Xu Ji say,
"I went to the orphanage during the day yesterday. Aunt Wang was worried because you weren't here. She complained about it several times."

Gu Xi's face froze.

He lowered his eyes in a panic.

Xu Ji stood up, found a small medicine box, and packed all the medicines she needed to eat and change in the past two days, "I'll take you back later, where do you live?"

Gu Xi opened his mouth, wanting to say an unrelated address.

But it felt like my mind was blank, and I couldn't find a decent lie at all.

"Or," Xu Ji asked, "do you need to contact your fiancé for you?"
