Chapter 205: 199. During the illness, he took meticulous care (2)

Huo Feng took the tissues from the desk and handed them to Pu Sangzhi.

It was then that Pu Sangzhi slowly sat up from the bed, took the tissue, and blew her nose.

Seeing her blow hard, the loud, snuffling sounds made it clear she didn’t care about her image.

Yet even so, Huo Feng’s eyes remained firmly fixed on her, his dark, shiny pupils twinkling like stars, as if he were looking at a rare treasure.

After Pu Sangzhi blew her nose vigorously, the tissue filled with mucus, she felt dirty, yet when she looked up, she saw Huo Feng with a ’you’re so cute’ smile on his face.

Pu Sangzhi was silent for a few seconds...

Huo Feng actually propped his chin and asked, "How come even blowing your nose is so cute?"

Pu Sangzhi: "..."

Awkward...

Huo Feng then said, "Do you need more tissues? Want to go again?"

Pu Sangzhi quickly shook her head and got out of bed while shaking her head to throw the used tissue into the wastebasket by the bed.

After a groggy morning in bed, Pu Sangzhi finally got up.

She hadn’t brushed her teeth in the morning, nor had she had breakfast, just woke up, took some medicine, and then went back to sleep.

So now, after getting up, she first went to the bathroom to brush her teeth, and then, she casually tidied up her appearance before coming out to have lunch.

Huo Feng joined them for lunch, and throughout the meal, Pu Sangzhi kept sniffling and occasionally coughing, looking quite ill.

Huo Feng suggested taking her to the doctor in the afternoon for an IV drip to get better faster.

Chen Huifen agreed with Huo Feng’s suggestion.

But Pu Sangzhi didn’t think it was necessary.

Latter on, with the joint agreement of Huo Feng and Chen Huifen, Pu Sangzhi reluctantly went out to see the doctor.

...

In the afternoon, dressed in casual sportswear, Pu Sangzhi went out with Huo Feng, leaving Chen Huifen at home.

As they left, Pu Sangzhi was still on high alert, wearing a mask and a hat, concealing her face with only her eyes showing.

The period of vigilance for their family hadn’t ended, and Huo Feng knew that the mother and daughter were still wary of the mysterious man at the mouth of the alley.

He was also concerned, sometimes feeling pity for her being so careful when going out...

Thus, Huo Feng’s resolve to find that man grew even stronger!

Around two in the afternoon, Huo Feng took Pu Sangzhi to a nearby clinic.

After taking her temperature and examining her throat, and asking a few simple questions, the clinic doctor recommended an IV drip, saying it would speed up her recovery.

Pu Sangzhi thought that since she was already there, getting an IV drip wasn’t a big deal.

If she got better faster, she would suffer less.

So, she accepted the IV drip.

The clinic doctor set Pu Sangzhi up with the IV, a total of two saline bags, which looked like they would take a bit over an hour.

The clinic had simple recliners, and Pu Sangzhi lay there under a small blanket, waiting quietly...

Huo Feng lay down on another recliner next to her, and to keep her from getting bored, he talked to her and tried to cheer her up.

Pu Sangzhi’s nose was constantly running, and she occasionally coughed, so Huo Feng kept bringing her hot water...

After she drank a lot of hot water, he accompanied her to the restroom several times, attending to her very carefully.

And in the end, he paid for the medicine.

Pu Sangzhi wanted to repay him, but Huo Feng adamantly refused, leaving her feeling quite embarrassed.

By the time they came back home after the IV drip, it was almost 4 o’clock.

At four o’clock, Pu Sangzhi started her tutoring session with Huo Feng.

In the room, she sat on the bed, Huo Feng sat by the desk, and since her desk was right next to the bed, they were at a perfect 90-degree angle to each other...just right.

Pu Sangzhi wrapped herself in a thick blanket, holding tissues in her hand, with a cup of hot water at the ready.

She still didn’t feel great, but after the IV drip, she coughed less often.

"You’re really neglecting some subjects, falling way behind in politics, history, and geography..."

Pu Sangzhi analyzed Huo Feng’s last midterm exam paper, among ten subjects he relied on math, foreign language, Chinese, and information technology to boost his score...

But overall, his performance seemed poor, ranking around 400 in his grade.

To break into the top 250, he would have to pull up his scores in those weaker subjects.

In recent times, Pu Sangzhi had been focusing on his Chinese, math, and foreign language, as these were essential subjects for college entrance exams.

But aside from these three subjects, the other subjects in the proficiency test are also important.

High schools in Zhejiang Province no longer divide classes into arts and sciences.

Therefore, students must pass all 10 proficiency tests; only on this basis can they choose three additional subjects for which they take the proficiency test, selecting the highest scores, and combine these with the scores of Chinese, mathematics, and foreign language to constitute the total score for the college entrance examination.

Pu Sangzhi plans to first set aside tutoring in Chinese, mathematics, and English, and then focus on the subjects in which he is weaker.

Next semester, they would face the first proficiency test, and Pu Sangzhi hoped that he would pass all of them in one go without having to take any make-up exams.

Because having make-up exam records in students’ files really doesn’t look good.

Moreover, she hoped that all his proficiency test scores would be A’s. Although this was difficult, only with such scores could he secure the path to Tsinghua in front of him. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

"Starting tomorrow, don’t bring your math book over anymore. Bring the books and homework for political science, geography, and history. These subjects require a lot of memorization. I’ll circle the key points for you, and you’ll have to memorize them all."

"Oh..."

Huo Feng despised these three subjects the most, but since Pu Sangzhi had decided, he had no choice but to accept.

"Alright, then do the exercises, and show me after you’re finished," Pu Sangzhi commanded.

"Wait a moment..."

Huo Feng suddenly raised his hand: "Before I start working on the exercises, I want to ask if I could stay here tonight."

Pu Sangzhi rejected without thinking, "No way!"

Huo Feng immediately replied, "Don’t be in a hurry to refuse, listen to my reasons."

Pu Sangzhi decisively responded, "No reason is good enough, I refuse!"

Huo Feng clicked his tongue and immediately began to employ his silver tongue, spouting nonsense, "You’re sick like this, how can I feel at ease going home? Even if I go home this evening, I still have to come over in the morning. Plus, I definitely won’t be able to sleep well, and I might come over in the middle of the night... You know my temper, just the thought of you and I could show up at your door in the middle of the night, no matter the time. Now that the weather is so cold, are you really heartless enough to let me freeze at your doorstep?"

Pu Sangzhi took a tissue, pinched her nose, and glanced at him out of the corner of her eye: "Excuses! I won’t listen!"

"Fine!"

Huo Feng nodded, "You don’t believe me, so be it. But I will definitely come over and wait in the middle of the night, or maybe I just won’t go home and will hang around an internet café for a few hours before coming over."

As Pu Sangzhi listened, she felt he was crossing a line and couldn’t help but glare at him, "Huo Feng, are you threatening me?"

Huo Feng spread his hands nonchalantly, "Not at all. I’m just doing what I want to do, and you do what you want to do. After all, how I choose to take care of you is up to me, and whether you respond to me is your choice. You’re the one being loved, you’re fearless. No matter what you do, I won’t leave, who else could I be so sure of but you?"

Pu Sangzhi was at a loss for words, not knowing how to respond.

All she could do was blow her nose with the tissue, using the action to ease the awkwardness.

Seeing her ignoring him, Huo Feng sighed deeply, "Sigh, no matter how sincerely I treat you or how devotedly I’m there for you, you never seem moved even in the slightest. It’s just me being foolish, caring that you were sick. I brought you chicken, stewed it for you myself, took you to the doctor, and accompanied you when you got injections... Never mind, you’re just heartless. Having dealt with you for so long, I’m used to it. Being hurt by you isn’t a big deal..."

Pu Sangzhi’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Are you trying to guilt-trip me?"

Hey, he really was!

But Huo Feng wouldn’t admit it, "Think whatever you want, after all, you’re the one being loved. You’ve got me wrapped around your finger. No matter how capricious you are, I’ll put up with it. Whatever you do to me, I can bear it... Sigh, let’s not talk about it anymore, that’s that. If I can’t stay here tonight, I accept it. Then I’ll just go to the internet café and play for a few hours, sleep the first part of the night, and come wait for you in the latter part."

Pu Sangzhi was so overwhelmed by Huo Feng’s words that she couldn’t say a thing.

She took a sharp breath in, not sure what to do when suddenly...

"Achoo!"

Pu Sangzhi let out a big sneeze and, without covering up completely, sprayed some saliva on Huo Feng’s face.

Huo Feng instantly widened his eyes, staring at Pu Sangzhi with his mouth open, a look of panic on his face.

Realizing she had been rude, Pu Sangzhi covered her mouth and nose, her big round eyes looking back at Huo Feng.

"Are you infecting me now?"

Huo Feng, eyes wide, incredulously said, "You refuse my kindness, and now you purposefully infect me?"

Pu Sangzhi shook her head emphatically, "No! I didn’t do it on purpose!"

Huo Feng clutched his chest with a wounded look, "You deliberately sneeze at me, spraying viruses all over my face, oh wow... Woman’s hearts are the most poisonous!"

"Hey, I didn’t!"

Pu Sangzhi was at a loss for words, unable to stand Huo Feng’s false accusations against her.

And she thought he was making a big deal out of it, it was just a sneeze...

Hadn’t he said he was worried and cared for her? How could his attitude change so quickly with just a sneeze?!

Huo Feng pointed a finger at Pu Sangzhi, shaking it continuously, "Devil, you’re a devil. I try my best to save you, and you want to drag me to hell?"

"Hey, stop talking nonsense..."

Pu Sangzhi, somewhat annoyed, swatted his finger away, "It’s just a sneeze! What’s with making such a big deal! Didn’t you say you love me? So, just because I sneeze at you, does that mean your love is gone? That’s just too cheap!"

The moment she spoke these words, Pu Sangzhi regretted them!

Because she realized... what she said was too suggestive!
