There was a fierce look in Lu Yanjue's eyes, but his hands were moving gently.

He patted Jiang Ruoli's shoulder and whispered, "Don't be afraid, you won't die. I'm here, and I won't let you die either..."

He said it over and over again in her ear.

Perhaps Jiang Ruoli heard it in his sleep, and gradually, he was no longer so uneasy.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Lu Yanjue stood up and began to take measures to reduce her fever.

Jiang Ruoli was unconscious and could only receive intravenous drips and use fever-reducing patches.

During this time, he did not forget to go into the bathroom, run some hot water, and wipe the sweat off her forehead and face.

Seeing his slightly frowned brows gradually relax, Lu Yanjue put down the towel and stared at the clueless person without blinking.

He couldn't help but stroke her eyebrows with his fingertips.

He was such a lively person before, but now he is lying on the hospital bed with a pale face.

His heart suddenly felt a pain for some reason.

"Jiang Ruoli, I won't let anyone bully you anymore."

Afterwards, Lu Yanjue quietly watched over her.

We waited until three or four in the morning.

Fortunately, Jiang Ruoli's fever gradually subsided and the situation was not that bad.

At this time, Lu Yanjue raised his hand and touched her forehead, and it seemed that it was not so hot anymore.

Only then did he feel relieved, leaning back in the chair beside him and closing his eyes to rest.

Jiang Ruoli woke up around five o'clock. When he opened his eyes, he felt groggy, weak, and aching all over.

However, under the dim light, that slender figure seemed to have the power to soothe people's hearts, and all the nightmares and discomforts seemed to be driven away.

Jiang Ruoli gradually regained consciousness and realized that she had been ill and that it was the man beside her who was taking care of her.

She couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Why... would he do this?

This time she was attacked, and he had obviously done enough.

He sent people to investigate the murderer and arranged the best ward and medical care for me, which was already very caring for me. But why did he need to take care of me personally?

All this has gone beyond the relationship between the two of them.

The two of them were nothing, and if they were to be compensated, he had already made up for it with what he had done to her before.

She really didn't understand it and felt helpless.

Does the Count know that people are most likely to let down their guard when they are at their most vulnerable?

She had already made up her mind to stay away from him, but now, he was stepping into the territory she had set up...

If this continues, she is worried that she will fall!

Jiang Ruoli closed his eyes and told himself that he must not have such thoughts!

The Earl is not someone I can dream of.

After Jiang Ruoli tried his best to convince himself, he began to feel uncomfortable again.

Maybe it was because she was sweating, her body felt sticky and made her feel uncomfortable.

She looked at the basin and the confiscated towel on the cabinet next to her, and thought about taking them to wipe herself. Although her body could not move, her hands could still move.

So, she reluctantly raised her hand to reach the towel, but because of the angle, it was a little difficult to grasp.

After struggling for a while, I finally got it, but it fell to the ground with a "bang".

Jiang Ruoli exclaimed, "Ah..."

At the same time, it also woke up Lu Yanjue who was next to him.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Ruoli raising his hand, and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong? When did you wake up?"

Jiang Ruoli heard his voice was a little hoarse and tired, obviously he didn't sleep well, looked up at him and said apologetically: "Sorry, did I wake you up?"

Lu Yanjue shook his head and said, "No, I wasn't asleep to begin with."

He bent down to pick up the towel, then he asked, "What are you doing? Why didn't you call me?"

Jiang Ruoli's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a hoarse voice: "You are resting, so I just want to not disturb you. Besides, it's just wiping the sweat, I can do it myself."

Seeing her trying to be brave, Lu Yanjue couldn't help but frown and said, "You can't move now, and you can't toss yourself. Wait, I'll change the hot water for you... The water is cold, don't catch a cold again."

Jiang Ruoli felt a little conflicted when he heard this.

In fact, if possible, she would like to change her clothes.

I didn’t change it last night, and now my hospital gown still feels a little sweaty, and I feel uncomfortable all over.

Lu Yanjue noticed that she seemed to want to say something, so he asked, "Just say it if you have anything to say."

Jiang Ruoli said without hesitation, "Then please trouble Mr. Earl to call the nanny my father found! Or the nurse will do, I want to change clothes."

Lu Yanjue paused.

So that's what it was. I had a fever and was sweating all over. It's time to change it, and I can't do it myself.

He said calmly, "I'll go call the nurse for you. The nanny your dad hired didn't stay in the hospital last night, and she didn't come so early."

Jiang Ruoli nodded, "Okay."

Soon, Lu Yanjue went out to find a nurse.

But after a while he came back and no one followed him in.

Jiang Ruoli was puzzled, looked behind him, and asked, "Why didn't the nurse come?"

Lu Yanjue frowned slightly, hesitated, and said, "The nurse is not here. She must have gone to make rounds. I don't know when she will be back."

Jiang Ruoli was a little disappointed after hearing this, "Is that so! Then...it's okay, I'll wait a little longer!"

Although she said that, the sticky feeling on her body still made her feel uncomfortable lying down.

What’s even worse is that the scratches on my body, stained by sweat, make my skin feel itchy and it’s so uncomfortable that it drives me crazy.

She frowned and endured it.

Seeing her like this, Lu Yanjue asked, "Are you feeling very uncomfortable?"

Jiang Ruoli nodded, "Yeah, my clothes are a little wet, and it's uncomfortable to cover the wound, but... it's okay, I can bear it."

Lu Yanjue pondered for a few seconds, said nothing, and went to the bathroom to get some hot water.

Then, draw the curtains and lock the door.

Jiang Ruoli looked at his actions and was a little slow to react until the man came to the bed and said, "I'll help you change."

He spoke frankly and calmly.

Instead, Jiang Ruoli himself was confused.

what?

He helps himself???

This is this...

"No, isn't it good?"

Jiang Ruoli was at a loss and quickly refused: "How about I wait for the nurse?"

Lu Yanjue looked at her panicked expression and couldn't help but want to laugh.

He knew she was shy.

But seeing that she was so uncomfortable, he couldn't bear to look at her and continued to endure it.

So he spoke calmly, "You know the doctor-patient relationship is the same for both men and women, right? Now I am in charge of your injuries and I am your doctor. You are not feeling well now, so it is normal for me to do this.

Besides, you just sweated a lot, and these scratches must have been wet with sweat. You have to apply medicine again. If you delay, the wounds may become inflamed and itchy... You will suffer then! So, don't be stubborn anymore, let me help you!"

As he spoke, he suddenly took two steps forward, his eyes flashed with tenderness as he said, "I'll help you up first. It's the third day now, you can try to sit for a while! Just bear with it! It will be fine soon!"
