The Downtrodden Villain In A Redemption Romance Novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 Leaving

Xu Wen tossed and turned uneasily in his sleep, and his whole body was wrapped tightly by an unusually high fever.

It was like he was holding a burning stove in his arms, which made his skin tight.

The heat is so abnormal!

Xu Wen suddenly woke up from his sleep.

He lowered his head and saw clearly the situation in his arms through the dim light coming through the cracks in the curtains.

Lu Qingrang was hugging his waist tightly, her whole face buried in the crook of his neck, her whole body was exuding amazing heat, and even her breath was frighteningly hot.

“Brother Lu?” Xu Wen’s voice was hoarse and panicked as he had just woken up.

He stretched out his hand to touch the forehead of the person in his arms, and the warmth from his fingertips made his heart sink. The touch was so hot that it burned his hands.

“Brother Lu! Wake up!” He gently patted the other person’s cheek, feeling an abnormal hot flash in his tentacles.

Lu Qingrang seemed to be disturbed by his movements. He frowned unconsciously and rubbed deeper into his arms. He murmured indistinctly, but his arms held him tighter.

Xu Wen was completely panicked now.

He tried to break away to get his cell phone and thermometer, but found that Lu Qingrang was holding her very tightly.

“You have a fever, Lu Qingrang, relax a little and I’ll get the medicine.” He softened his voice and coaxed while carefully trying to open the tightly clasped fingers.

The skin of the tentacles was hot, and the temperature burned his fingertips and his heart.

Xu Wenzheng wanted to try to move his arm away again, but the person in his arms let out a whimper of dissatisfaction because of his actions.

“Well…”

Lu Qing let his thick eyelashes tremble a few times and opened a crack with difficulty. His eyes were filled with moisture and confusion caused by high fever.

He seemed not to be fully awake yet, but instinctively felt Xu Wen’s intention to leave. Instead of loosening the arms around Xu Wen’s waist, he tightened them even more, using almost all his strength to lock him in place.

“Xu Wen…” His voice was extremely hoarse, with a strong nasal sound, as if he had been greatly wronged. His hot cheeks subconsciously rubbed the crook of Xu Wen’s neck, seeking comfort and coolness, “Don’t move…it’s cold…”

Xu Wen was almost out of breath due to his strong force, and when he heard him shouting coldly, the idea of ​​breaking away in his heart was instantly replaced by helplessness and heartache.

He sighed, gave up his plan to get up, adjusted his posture to make each other more comfortable, then reached out to pull up the slipping quilt, wrapping Lu Qingrang tightly.

“Okay, don’t move, I won’t move.” He lowered his voice, like coaxing a child, and clumsily patted Lu Qingrang’s back with one hand, “But you have a fever, and we have to take medicine, eh? You relax a little first, and I’ll get you medicine and water. I’ll be back soon, okay?”

Lu Qingrang didn’t seem to hear what he was saying at all, but vaguely caught the word “come back”. Instead, he hugged him tighter and muttered vaguely: “I’m not leaving…”

Xu Wen felt funny and weak at the same time as he looked at the way he was burning up but only looking at himself.

A person who usually has a cool and reserved demeanor, but when he feels uncomfortable, it seems as if the seal has been lifted. He is like a human-shaped pendant that cannot be shaken off, very clinging to people.

He looked down at the head with soft hair buried in his chest, and finally relaxed his body as if resigned to his fate.

“Clingy guy.” He laughed and cursed in a low voice, but there was no trace of disgust in his tone, only indulgence.

The next fuss confirmed Xu Wen’s assessment.

The process of feeding the medicine was like a difficult tug-of-war. Lu Qingrang was stupefied by the fever, but was extremely sensitive to bitter tastes. He pursed his lips and refused to cooperate. He kept digging his head into Xu Wen’s arms, grunting and dodging the medicine spoon that was handed to his mouth.

Xu Wen had no choice but to hold his thrashing head in place with one hand, while softening his voice and coaxing him in every possible way, almost half forcing and half deceiving, before he finally fed the medicine in, and he broke into a thin sweat.

When Lu Qingrang finally fell asleep again due to the effect of the medicine, and his breathing seemed to be more stable, Xu Wencai breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling as if he had fought a tough battle.

He rubbed his aching arms, and then he had time to pick up his cell phone, which had been almost silent all morning.

The screen was unlocked, and several unread messages from Li Yue popped up:

Li Yue: [Brother Wen, I’m here!At the window seat of the coffee shop~]

Li Yue: [Brother Wen?Have you arrived?】

Li Yue: [Brother Wen…are you unable to come because of something?】

Xu Wen’s heart skipped a beat and he looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost eleven o’clock!

He completely forgot about his agreement with Li Yue!

A strong feeling of guilt surged up instantly.

He subconsciously looked at Lu Qingrang, who was sleeping soundly on the bed. The man was sleeping peacefully due to the effects of the antipyretic medicine. The blush on his cheeks had faded a bit, revealing a slight paleness. He looked extremely well-behaved, completely different from the clingy and shameless little ancestor just now.

The station is indeed not far from home. Taking a taxi and meeting each other will take up to forty minutes if everything goes well.

Looking at Lu Qingrang like this, he probably won’t be able to wake up for a while…

Xu Wen thought quickly in his mind, and an impulse to make amends took over.

He still wanted to go there and at least apologize to Li Yue in person. He couldn’t let the girl wait for so long in vain.

“Just come back before he wakes up…” Xu Wen said to himself in his heart, as if this would alleviate some of the guilt of leaving the patient behind and sneaking away.

He gently tucked Lu Qing’s quilt in, and then tested the temperature of his forehead. He felt that it was not as hot as before, which gave him a little peace of mind.

When he reached the door, he hesitated for a moment, then took out his mobile phone and quickly sent a message to Lu Qingrang:

[Brother Lu, I have to go out for an urgent matter. I will be back soon. You have a good sleep.If you feel uncomfortable when you wake up, call me.】

In this way…does it count as notification?

After doing all this, Xu Wencai unscrewed the door lock very slightly like a thief, stepped out, and carefully closed the door, fearing that the slightest sound would disturb the sleep of the people inside.

Almost five minutes after Xu Wen left the house, Lu Qingrang, who was sleeping on the bed, frowned uneasily.

The chaos caused by the high fever still oppressed his nerves heavily, but it was as if there was an extremely precise sensor placed deep in his body, and he could clearly feel that the reassuring heat source had disappeared.

His arms were empty, and the cold air took advantage of the void and pressed against his sweaty pajamas, causing a slight shiver.

Lu Qingrang opened his heavy eyelids with difficulty, his vision was blurred, and he subconsciously reached out and groped around him, but only caught a cold sheet.

“…Xu Wen?”

The hoarse voice sounded extremely weak in the silent room, and there was no response.

An emotion mixed with the panic of being abandoned and huge grievance instantly overwhelmed my heart, which had become extremely fragile due to the high fever.

Lu Qingrang struggled to reach for his cell phone beside his pillow. The screen lit up, and the message from Xu Wen popped out dazzlingly.

[I have something urgent to do and I will be back soon…]

“Urgent matter…” Lu Qingrang muttered and repeated these two words. His chaotic brain was unable to conduct rational analysis and could not understand what an urgent matter was.

At this moment, all the ability to think logically was burned away by the high fever and strong uneasiness, leaving only the most direct emotional feelings, Xu Wen abandoned him.

When he was sick and needed him most, he was left alone in an empty house for other urgent matters.

Xu Wen is used to feeling this kind of grievance.

My throat was dry and tight, and my eyes couldn’t help but feel sour.

Lu Qingrang threw the phone away suddenly, as if throwing away something dirty.

Then, he curled up and used all the remaining strength in his body to stare at the door without blinking.

Those eyes that were moist and hazy due to high fever were filled with stubbornness, accusations, and even more grievances.

go out?

good.

Let’s see when you… come back.
