Dr. Chen thought in his heart, but his movements were not slow, and he turned around. Joey Xu carefully lifted Sammy Jones from the quilt. She was soft all over, and when he moved her, she leaned softly in his arms. Her small mouth brushed against his neck if she could, and her breath fell all over the nape of his neck.
Joey Xu just hung his head and looked at her. Sammy Jones, like this, looked especially well-behaved and vulnerable, like a child who needed to be taken care of.
His heart fluttered so much that Joey Xu felt like his heart was going to melt along with her, and he called out to her tentatively, “Sammy Jones?”
“Hm?” With great effort and difficulty, she opened her eyes a slit to see Joey Xu’s worried face, and spoke in a delicate, as if pouting voice: “It’s hard to … thirsty …”
Days!
Joey Xu really can’t stand her like this, he just felt his whole heart beating, he looked back at Dr. Chen, “Quick, have Sister An pour a glass of water in.”
Dr. Chen went out, and before he went out, he didn’t forget to remind, “Feel free to tuck the thermometer under your armpit.”
“Good boy, it won’t be hard or thirsty in a while.” Joey Xu has never coaxed a woman, now coaxing such Sammy Jones is like a natural. Always did not know what tenderness is, he also gentle a lot, his hand from her open shirt collar to explore in, touched the burning plump, he also did not pause, so he pressed the thermometer under her armpit.
She doesn’t have much strength, and the only time he lets go is when the thermometer still has to fall down. joey Xu, helpless, coaxes her, “Keep a good pressure on it.”
Joey Xu only had to put his arm around her, helping her to press the thermometer under her armpit. A moment later, Dr. Chen came in with a glass of water, Joey Xu free a hand, personally probed the temperature, still hot, and then rested on the bedside.
“Ms. Zhao is down there in aggravation with tears in her eyes! Is it appropriate for you to do this?” Dr. Chen couldn’t help but say. Seeing how he was holding this woman so tightly and hurting her to his heart, which fiancée was this one who could stand it?
Joey Xu frowned at the mention of Zhao Yuanyuan.
Unconsciously remembering those words from Zhao Lanlan again, he lowered his eyes to look at the woman in his arms, his eyes slightly deeper. There were some answers that seemed to be calling out.
He ignored his words and simply asked, “About how long will it take for the energy to come up to temperature?”
“Almost there.”
Dr. Chen said.
Sammy Jones was hot and constantly sweating from the heat of his hold. Sore fingers lifted and tugged at the shirt he was wearing. He immediately dropped his head and moved closer to her, “What’s wrong?”
She lifted her head a little feebly, and her lips almost brushed hers, but she only softly winced, “Water …”
Her lips were dry and burning, and her wet, soft tongue just matched the words and licked her lips. His body stiffened, cursing the little goblin, he couldn’t help but bend his head down and nibble on her lips, before he reached for the water at the bedside.
The water was still a little hot, and he held it and blew on it for a while.
When she tugged at his shirt, he took her hand in his palm and patted and coaxed, “Soon, soon …”
Dr. Chen was completely dumbfounded. This Joey Xu was cleansed, dare I say that even his nature had changed? Iron-blooded man, when can he actually know how to serve a woman? Moreover, it is still so gentle …
This is a real eye-opener!
If the fiancée downstairs saw this scene, wouldn’t she be so angry that she would vomit blood and die on the spot?
Sister An fetched a basin of hot water and was about to send it upstairs when Zhao Yuanyuan, her eyes red and swollen, called out to her.
“No deliveries!”
Sister An had a difficult face, “Ms. Yuan Yuan, you’re nice, so don’t make things difficult for me.”
“Why should I send it? Sister An, she’s the third party! Look, she’s even boarded the door now! And in front of me! If you go up to serve her, what does that make me? What am I with these wedding dresses, these invitations!”
Exasperated, Zhao Yuanyuan picked up the wedding dress on the sofa and heaved it back.
What a promise never to see each other again! What an unwillingness to be a third party!
What is this now? Obviously a whore, and you have to set up some kind of chaste house for yourself!
In this situation, Sister An also really didn’t know what words to say to comfort. After all, she herself was only an inferior.
“Talk to Mr. Xu in a while, after all, you’re talking about marriage after all, Mr. Xu won’t even be able to hold this point of view.” Sister An said.
“The way I see it, he’s basically ghosted by that woman!”
She yelled angrily.
At that moment, upstairs, the bedroom door opened abruptly.
Joey Xu was standing right upstairs, looking at her from above as he made his way downstairs.
As soon as she saw him, Jo Yuanyuan’s tears were like pearls on a string.
“You left me at the bridal store, that’s where you went to find her?” She didn’t want to fight with Joey Xu, she knew that Joey Xu liked better behaved women, but she couldn’t help it! Couldn’t help but question!
What’s so great about that woman, anyway?
Joey Xu glanced at her and didn’t reply to her words, but instead brought the hot water from Sister An’s hand to her own. Only then did she say, “Sister An, order the driver and send Yuan Yuan back.”
Zhao Yuanyuan’s face changed.
“Joey Xu!”
“You go back to stay tonight.” Joey Xu looked straight at her then, “I’ll pay a personal visit to your house tomorrow and apologize as I should.”
“Apologize?” He knew he’d done wrong, too? Jo Yuanyuan’s face loosened up a little, but the thought of Sammy Jones living here and having to go back herself was too much to bear.
“I don’t want to go back …” she said, changing her policy and flattening her mouth in aggravation.
“I don’t have time for you tonight.” Joey Xu’s heart was now hanging on Sammy Jones upstairs, he was going to make things clear with Zhao Yuanyuan, but it was never going to be tonight. “Sister An, what are you waiting for? Go get the driver!”
“… Yes.” Sister An quietly glanced at Zhao Yuanyuan’s face before turning around to make the call.
Joey Xu carried the water and went upstairs. From the beginning to the end, did not look back at Zhao Yuanyuan. Looking at that back, Zhao Yuanyuan’s face grew paler and paler, she took a step back and sat down on the sand somewhat powerlessly.
Joey Xu, is she really in love with Sammy Jones?
He would rather he still loved Zhao Lanlan, then, at least for Zhao Lanlan’s sake, he wouldn’t really turn his back on her. In the past, he had treated her well, hadn’t he?
And …
With a face so similar to her sister’s, she won’t lose to Sammy Jones as long as he has any heart for her.
But now …
She wasn’t sure, not at all!
Joey Xu, did you really change your mind?
Joey Xu goes in and asks, “How’s it going, what’s the fever?”
“Thirty-nine degrees. Let’s give her a fever-reducing injection, cover her overnight, and she’ll be fine in the morning.”
“Really?”
“You still can’t trust my medical skills? Don’t worry, it won’t burn.” Dr. Chen said as he prepared the syringe, mixing the medicine and sucking it into the syringe.
Joey Xu looked at him, “Where are you hitting with this drug?”
“You tell me!” Dr. Chen looked at him, “Where you usually hit this.”
Joey Xu knew Dr. Chen, and would never give someone a hangnail if it wasn’t something very important. In his opinion, that would be a minor surgery. So, it must have been a small syringe to give her a butt needle.
“No way!” Joey Xu refused.
Sammy Jones can’t be shown anywhere.
Dr. Chen had expected him to say this and sighed, “Just don’t worry, in our doctor’s eyes, that’s a piece of meat. Men and women, old people and children, it’s all the same. Besides, don’t you want her to get well quickly? It’s fine if she doesn’t get an injection, take some medicine, if the fever doesn’t subside and she continues to suffer, you can’t blame me for my lack of skill.”
Joey Xu thought very seriously for a while, and then looked at Sammy Jones again, the hard look she had, made his heart clench. In the end, there was only a compromise.
“OK. You go out first!”
Out again?
Dr. Chen was once again embarrassed and had to walk outside with the syringe and medicine to transfer it.
Joey Xu didn’t forget that the woman was still naked underneath! She had Sister An send a pair of pants in and personally put them on her before picking her up. Just let her lie on her lap, like a child’s injection when she was young, only slightly peeling down the pants a little bit, letting Dr. Chen give the injection.
The entire time, he was staring at Dr. Chen with a deadly stare, several times, making Dr. Chen unable to lay his hands on him, almost demanding that he not look at him like that, as if he was a pervert.
This needle goes in and it really hurts.
Sammy Jones’ brow clenched and his hand squeezed his pants. If it were normal, this pain would be nothing to Sammy Jones. However, the more vulnerable people are, the more they are afraid of pain. Sick, the heart of the defense is naturally fall, pain will shout, difficult to cry.
Joey Xu held her hand in place and stared at Dr. Chen without a good look, “Can’t you be gentle? You think you’re stabbing me!”
“Almost there, almost there, it doesn’t really hurt.” Dr. Chen was truly nervous. Carefully pushing the medicine in, he hurriedly withdrew the syringe, while saying, “Okay, okay.”
Joey Xu immediately wrapped Sammy Jones up securely and gave him a hug. Sammy Jones was tucked back under the covers again, his mouth dry.
“This is medicine, take it and wake up tomorrow with a headache that can be relieved a little.” Dr. Chen left a few pills, and instructed as he did so, “Shake her awake in a moment and have her eat it.”
“Uh-huh.” Joey Xu answered and waved his hand, signaling Dr. Chen to go out on his own.
As soon as Dr. Chen left, only Sammy Jones and Joey Xu were left in the room. Sammy Jones was lying on the bed, sweating all over, and when she tried to lift the quilt, Joey Xu shoved her hand back. Joey Xu tucked her hand back in. She struggled, so he grabbed her hand and fixed it in the quilt.
Dropping his eyes, looking at her weak and pale appearance, Joey Xu’s brows furrowed tightly. He was a little afraid to imagine what the consequences would be if he didn’t happen to bump into her on the road today, with her kind of self-abusive behavior.
Maybe, just pass out on the floor and no one cares.
The thought of what it would look like still haunted him. He half sat down at the head of the bed, and with one long arm, he picked her up from under the covers, letting her rest her whole body against his shoulder. Sammy Jones winced in discomfort, and Joey Xu reached up to ruffle her sweaty hair out of the way, “Sammy Jones, take your pills first, you won’t have a headache tomorrow.”
She seemed to hear his words, but also seemed to be not very awake, just smashed her lips, and her eyes did not open. Her small action, hooked Joey Xu heart all numb, originally went to get the medicine hand, suddenly withdrew.
Without thinking, he embraced her slim body in turn and bent his head down to kiss her on the lips.
Sammy Jones was uncomfortably dry-mouthed, and only as soon as his lips imprinted, she probed her tongue as if she’d been there for a long time and licked his lips. Such a move was undoubtedly a fatal temptation for him, and with a grunt, he thrust his large palm into her still-wet hair and fought to deepen and intensify the kiss, not caring whether or not he would be infected by her.
Joey Xu couldn’t think what was wrong with him. Maybe it was from the day he met Sammy Jones that his whole being started to be off.
