Xie Yuyan After the Fever Subsided

“Mmm...”

In the middle of the night, Xie Yuyan gradually woke up from her unconscious state after her fever had subsided. A strong thirst and a dull ache in her limbs spread throughout her body.

“It hurts... What happened to me?”

Xie Yuyan squinted her eyes, propping herself up slowly with her hands on the mattress. Even though the fever was gone, she still felt unwell.

“Huh?”

When Xie Yuyan tried to reach for the water glass on the table based on her memory, she realized she wasn’t on the living room couch.

“This... This is...”

She took a deep breath, feeling the blanket covering her, and it dawned on her that she was in Ye Feng’s room.

“Why am I sleeping here? Where’s Ye Feng?”

Xie Yuyan slipped on her slippers, stood up, and turned on the bedroom light. In an instant, she saw the glass of water and the pills on the nightstand.

“Is this... fever medicine? Was I sick?”

As she read the label on the medicine, fragments of memories began to surface. It seemed that Ye Feng had noticed she was sick, gone downstairs to buy medicine, and even fed it to her.

“Where’s Ye Feng?”

Xie Yuyan picked up the glass of water and drank it all in one go. Her parched throat felt slightly better, but not seeing Ye Feng around, she opened the door and stepped out.

With the help of the bedroom light, Xie Yuyan saw Ye Feng sleeping soundly on the couch. He had draped his jacket over himself, while her blanket was neatly folded beside him.

“Of course, he’s here... What an idiot, not using the blanket!”

Although she muttered under her breath, her gaze toward Ye Feng was filled with affection.

She gently lifted his jacket and placed it aside, then unfolded her blanket and covered Ye Feng with it. Afterward, she crouched down, looking at his sleeping face, and the pain in her body seemed to ease a little.

I could watch you like this forever...

Xie Yuyan rested her chin on her hand, quietly gazing at Ye Feng with a soft smile. Just then, she noticed a faint red mark on his neck.

Curious, she leaned in closer. After a moment of careful observation, she pursed her lips.

The blood vessels on the neck are indeed fragile. I only kissed him lightly yesterday, and it’s already like this.

But it looks really good. I really want to leave my mark on every part of Ye Feng’s body.

Though, why does this mark look so dark? It’s only been one night. Or is Ye Feng’s blood clotting ability just that good?

Clearly, Xie Yuyan didn’t think of any other possibilities and still believed the mark was from her kiss.

“Goodnight, Ye Feng.”

Xie Yuyan whispered softly to Ye Feng. Although she wanted to hug him, she knew he was too tired today and decided not to disturb him.

With that, she returned to Ye Feng’s room and turned off the light...

......

“Mmm...”

In the morning, Ye Feng woke up groggily and tried to sit up, only to find half of his body hanging off the edge of the couch. The sudden sense of falling startled him—if he had rolled over, he would have likely fallen to the floor.

Wait, isn’t the couch pretty big? How did I end up sleeping on the edge?

Ye Feng tried to scoot further into the couch, but the space that should have been empty felt unusually cramped, as if there was a wall blocking him from behind. He couldn’t even turn over properly.

What... What’s going on?

Baffled, Ye Feng lifted his head and peeked toward the inside of the couch. When he saw what was happening, his mind instantly cleared.

Xie... Xie Yuyan!? Why is she sleeping here? Wasn’t she supposed to be in my room last night? And no wonder it felt like there was a wall behind me, it was...

Ye Feng pulled back the blanket and was about to get off the couch when he realized Xie Yuyan’s arm was tightly wrapped around his. If he tried to break free, he would undoubtedly wake her up, but staying like this wasn’t an option either.

Just as Ye Feng was at a loss, he felt a strong compression against his back, followed by Xie Yuyan’s voice.

“Good morning, Ye Feng~”

“Good morning... Wait! What are you doing!?”

Seeing that Xie Yuyan was awake, Ye Feng didn’t care about being quiet anymore. He grabbed her hand and pried it off, freeing himself.

“Geez, why are you overreacting? It’s not like I’m going to eat you.”

Xie Yuyan yawned casually, lying back on the couch as if nothing had happened.

“What do you mean, ‘not going to eat me’? Why did you suddenly come to sleep on my couch? I gave you my bed!”

“Huh? Isn’t that your own fault? Why are you blaming me?”

Xie Yuyan looked at Ye Feng with pitiful eyes, as if he was the one in the wrong.

“My fault? Explain to me how this is my fault.”

Ye Feng couldn’t help but laugh in frustration. He hadn’t expected Xie Yuyan to turn this around on him. After all the effort he put in, he was somehow the one at fault.

“Ye Feng, don’t you usually sleep in your room?”

“Yes, but what does that have to do with this?”

“So, you should be the one sleeping in the room, and I should be the one sleeping on the couch. Therefore, you’re the one who stole my bed!”

“......”

“Hehe, now you get it, right?”

“Get what? I think your brain’s still fried from the fever.”

“Well, that’s because you didn’t come back in time~”

As she said this, Xie Yuyan reached out from under the blanket and grabbed Ye Feng’s pants, pouting.

“So, you have to take responsibility for me.”

“You’re unbelievable...”

Ye Feng sighed and flicked Xie Yuyan’s forehead with his finger, making her yelp and cover her head with both hands.

“If you hadn’t eaten cold food and didn’t dry your hair properly last night, you wouldn’t have gotten sick. Next time, be more careful, got it?”

“Hehe... I got it.”

Xie Yuyan knew why she had suddenly developed a fever—it was because she had stayed in the bathroom for too long. Deep down, she felt a little embarrassed.

“By the way, check your temperature later. The thermometer is in the medicine bag in the room. I’ll make something light to eat.”

“No! I have a recipe now, so I should be the one cooking.”

Hearing that Ye Feng wanted to take over her task, Xie Yuyan threw off the blanket and stood up.

“I told you to rest and recover. It’s not like I’m never going to let you cook again...”

Ye Feng turned around to tell Xie Yuyan to sit back down, but as he did, he noticed that her pajamas weren’t buttoned properly, revealing a glimpse of her skin.

“Button up your pajamas properly, you hear me!”

“Alright, alright, I got it. Don’t be so grumpy first thing in the morning~”

Xie Yuyan smiled, watching Ye Feng’s flustered expression as she buttoned up her pajamas.
