C113

She raised her hand and touched her forehead, feeling nothing out of the ordinary.

However, it was really uncomfortable. Furthermore, his entire body was in a daze. It was hard for him not to make a mistake in his diagnosis.

Pei Luoyi got off the bed and dragged her light body in a circle before finally finding the medicine box. She then took out the thermometer from inside.

Five minutes later.

37 degrees, low fever.

Pei Luoyi packed her things back into the medicine box and briefly washed up. She didn't have the strength to do so, so she lay down on the sofa.

He didn't even have the strength to go to the kitchen and cook a bowl of porridge.

It had only been a clear day, but it was raining again today. The sound of thunder could be heard from time to time. The entire sky was dark and overcast with thick dark clouds. The sky was very dark.

In that instant, the loneliness that was abandoned by the world … It hit him in the face.

"..."

Shen Xiao realized that his boss had been absent-minded all day and was looking at his phone from time to time.

This situation was unprecedented. The word 'suspicious' could no longer describe such a strange feeling.

The black phone that was placed on the table hummed as it approached the end of the shift.

The man who was busy dealing with the documents immediately raised his head when he heard the commotion. He took it with his long hand and glanced at the name displayed on it. His eyes immediately darkened.

Gong Yan picked up the call, raised his phone close to his ear, slightly leaned back on the chair and asked, "What's the matter?"

A respectful yet serious voice came from the other end of the room, "Young Master Gong, Miss Pei hasn't been out for the entire day. However, she called for take-out service in the morning and noon. Apart from that, nothing unusual has happened."

The man frowned, "Outgoing?"

The other person hesitated for a moment before saying with a more cautious tone, "Yes, I personally witnessed the delivery of takeout in the corridor. Miss Pei opened the door to take it from me …" "Oh, right. Miss Pei does not look well. She looks very weak."

Weak...

Gong Yan coldly pursed his lips into a straight line, and only after a long while did he reply, "Got it, continue to stand guard there."

Then, he hung up the phone. His fingertips caressed the black phone as he seemed to be deep in thought.

A few seconds later, he picked up his cell phone again and dialed a number.

Just like yesterday, the call ended after a few seconds. The cold female voice reminded him again and again that the other party did not want to answer the phone.

A faint trace of irritation suddenly appeared on the man's face.

Shen Cui stood at the side, not daring to make a sound. He wanted to ask a few times, but he felt that this wasn't something a subordinate should do. After hesitating for a while, he still didn't say anything.

Instead, it was the man who opened his mouth, "Check her friend's number and give it to me as soon as possible."

Shen Cui was stunned for a moment before he replied, "Okay, right away."

Then he turned around and left the office.

This matter wasn't that difficult to deal with. After all, when he was investigating Pei Luoyi previously, everything concerning her had been typed out into a single sheet of information.

Not long after, Shen Cui returned to his office and passed a number to the man, "CEO, this is the number that Miss Pei still has. However, there is only one person who has been in contact with frequently these days."

Gong Yan put down the pen, glanced at the name at the top of the page, made a sound, then picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"..."

Pei Luoyi finished her dinner half an hour later. Just as she was about to take another antipyretic drug and take a shower and sleep, the doorbell rang.

She opened the door and saw Xin Xin outside. Her mind was in a mess for a second before she absentmindedly asked, "Why are you here?"

Xin Yi saw that the woman wasn't in a good mood, so he didn't reply. Instead, he raised his hand to touch her forehead. After touching for a while, his face hardened.

"You're having a fever. Yesterday, I let you go to the hospital. If you don't go, you'll be dragged to this day. See, are you sick?"

She retracted her hand and looked at the woman who looked as if she could fall at any moment. She was so grown-up that she couldn't even take care of herself.

Pei Luoyi pursed her lips and was about to say that she was fine when she was pulled into the living room by Xin Yi.

"Change your clothes, I'll take you to the hospital."

She spoke in a tone that was not to be denied.

Having known each other for such a long time, Pei Luoyi naturally knew that this was the real deal.

Even though she had been lying down all day, her head was still dizzy and heavy without any signs of improvement. If it wasn't for the habit of eating three meals at regular intervals, she wouldn't even have the desire to get up and eat.

"I shouldn't go anymore …" I've taken the medicine, so just get a good night's sleep. " After saying that, she sat back on the sofa and weakly pulled a pillow over her head, closing her eyes.

Xin Xin could not help but scold her for being so shameless. She didn't want to go, so she couldn't carry her.

A bellyful of air suddenly dissipated.

"Alright, if you really don't want to go, then I'll stay here with you tonight." After some thought, she asked again, "Have you had dinner? If not, I'll make you a few dishes. "

"I've already eaten." Pei Luoyi lifted her eyelids, and the light in her eyes flickered. "Why did you suddenly come over?"

Usually, before she came to find her, she would make a phone call to ask about it so that she wouldn't be out and out.

Xin Xin, who was sitting on the sofa, heard what was said. Her face stiffened as she raised her eyes to look at Pei Luoyi, who had an emotionless expression. After thinking for a moment, she decided to speak the truth.

"Ugh …" Actually, it was your Master Gong who called me. He told me that you were not feeling well and told me to come over to see you. "

The moment she finished speaking, the woman's expression changed. Thinking back to last night when she came out of the manor, she started to feel weird, so she continued asking, "You guys yesterday …" What's wrong? I think you were fine when you went out.

The living room fell into a short period of silence. Pei Luoyi hid her face so that no one could clearly see what she was thinking.

This statement of hers showed that she didn't want to say much.

Xin Xin didn't like to get to the bottom of things. Seeing that she didn't want to say it, he sighed and spoke up to ease the depressing atmosphere, "Forget it. This is originally a matter between the two of you, so I shouldn't ask anymore …" But you, if you want to sleep, go in and sleep. I'll stay here to guard tonight.

Pei Luoyi lifted her eyes and opened her mouth. She then continued, "Don't tell me you don't need anything. I'm worried about you living alone. I know you don't want to contact your parents right now."

Pei Luoyi was speechless, and her lips pursed up.

After thinking about how things had happened for so long, she contacted her family after returning home. She did not take the initiative to call them back, so they had no intention of contacting each other.

After all, they had been a family for 20 years. Although they weren't as intimate as they used to be, they were not as superficial as they were now.

In the end, he felt a bit disappointed.

Since this was what Xin Yi said, Pei Luoyi didn't press the matter and nodded her head before returning to her bedroom to rest.

One hour later.

When he heard the knock on the door, Xin Yi was watching TV with rapt attention.

He threw away the potato chips in his hand and walked to the hallway to open the door.

When the door opened, he saw a tall figure wrapped in water vapor. He was stunned.

Gong Yan expressionlessly looked at the woman who opened the door, his black pupils slightly moved, "Where is she?"
