Chapter 36
During this period of time, he would involuntarily think of Shen Yin when working. He would suddenly wonder what Shen Yin was doing and could even say that he was worried about her.
Shen Yin brought out a bowl of clear noodle soup she just cooked from the kitchen. There was a tea egg in the noodles, as well as some vegetables, and there were some green onion slices sprinkled on top. It looked very appetizing.
"There's not enough rice, so have some noodles," Shen Yin said.
Xu Xiuhe was still immersed in his own thoughts and was disrupted again by Shen Yin's words.
"What's wrong? If you don't like eating noodles, you can eat rice and I'll eat the noodles."
Xu Xiuhe quickly denied: "No, I was just thinking about some things. The noodles look quite delicious."
Then, the three of them ate their meals in silence. Shen Yin saw that Xu Xiuhe was putting dishes into Zhengzheng's bowl, so she didn't add any more to his.
"What plans does this studio have next?" Xu Xiuhe asked. In his eyes, Shen Yin's clothing studio could only be regarded as a hobby to pass the time doing things she loved. He didn't expect it to make money, and of course, he wasn't lacking money either.
"The opening is tomorrow. I plan to set the starting point a little higher," Shen Yin said. At first, she hadn't thought about what kind of grade clothes she should make, but after Granny Su said her wedding dress was worth eight digits, Shen Yin decided.
"You mean doing some custom-made, building a brand?" Xu Xiuhe asked.
That was Shen Yin’s intention, but she didn’t know how to express it. Unexpectedly, Xu Xiuhe had said it out.
"The early stages may be more difficult. Everything is difficult at first. If there's anything you need, let me know and I'll have Liu Bo handle it," Xu Xiuhe had said this many times.
But Shen Yin would handle things herself if she could handle them instead of troubling others.
In the afternoon when Shen Yin was on the first floor with Zhengzheng, she felt a little uncomfortable physically with dizziness and blurred vision. Shen Yin touched her forehead, it was a little hot. Would she have a fever? The employees were going to start working tomorrow. She couldn’t fall apart at the critical moment.
Shen Yin took out her phone and called Xu Xiuhe. Xu Xiuhe was a little surprised to see Shen Yin's incoming call. Shen Yin rarely called him.
"Hello, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable physically, maybe I have a fever. I'm afraid of passing it on to Zhengzheng. Can you come get him?" Shen Yin said weakly.
When Xu Xiuhe heard this, he stood up directly from his office chair, "Wait for me, I'll be right there."
Xu Xiuhe put on his coat and hurriedly left the office. Liu Bo walked over, "What's the matter, Boss?"
"I have something urgent to attend to, won't be back tonight," Xu Xiuhe said without turning his head.
On the way, Xu Xiuhe stepped on the gas pedal. If it wasn't for obeying traffic rules, he would have wanted to run through all the red lights.
Finally, when he entered the small building, Xu Xiuhe saw Shen Yin sitting on the sofa with a pale complexion, still talking to Zhengzheng, telling him to play over there and not to come over.
"Look at the time now!" Xu Xiuhe didn't know why he was angry, but seeing Shen Yin like this inexplicably infuriated him.
He walked with large strides and went to Zhengzheng's side, picked up Zhengzheng and carried him out.
Seeing Xu Xiuhe carry Zhengzheng away, Shen Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Now she didn’t have to worry about passing something on to Zhengzheng.
Shen Yin stood up with difficulty. She was worse now, her fever was probably higher now. There was no medicine here either. She went upstairs, intending to drink some hot water and take a nap.
Just as she was walking up the stairs, Xu Xiuhe's voice came from behind, "Where are you still going upstairs to? I'm taking you to the hospital." His tone was a little worried.
Shen Yin didn't expect Xu Xiuhe to come back again. Shen Yin turned around, wanting to take a look. Unexpectedly, she became dizzy and her feet slipped back. Relying on her body's instincts, Shen Yin reached out to grab the railing.
Xu Xiuhe hugged Shen Yin from behind, "Still not resting properly when you're sick!"
This was Shen Yin’s first time being in such close physical contact with a man, and she felt a little uncomfortable at first. Just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Xu Xiuhe's words.
"Don't move."
Shen Yin stopped and Xu Xiuhe picked her up, turned around, and asked, "Is there anything else you need to bring from the room?"
Shen Yin shook her head.
Xu Xiuhe carried Shen Yin towards the door of the small building. When they got to the door, Xu Xiuhe put Shen Yin down and said, "Don't move."
Shen Yin really didn't dare to move. Xu Xiuhe locked the door of the small building swiftly, then picked up Shen Yin again.
"What's going on here?" Su Jin walked over from beside Small Building No. 4 and saw Xu Xiuhe carrying Shen Yin while asking.
Shen Yin spoke up in a small voice, "Mother-in-law, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable physically."
"Is it because you've been too busy recently and worn yourself out?" Su Jin asked with concern.
Before Shen Yin could reply, Xu Xiuhe spoke up, "Mother-in-law, I'll take her to see the doctor first, we'll get going now."
"Okay, go see the doctor early, don't overexert yourself," Su Jin said as she watched Xu Xiuhe’s back.
Xu Xiuhe carried Shen Yin to the passenger seat, changed his position, leaned his body towards Shen Yin's side, quite close. The sides of Xu Xiuhe and Shen Yin's faces were less than 10 cm apart.
Shen Yin was frightened, her spirits lifted in an instant, eyes wide open, holding her breath, not daring to move at all, "What are you doing?"
Xu Xiuhe turned his face, the two people were face to face, close enough to feel each other's breath, close enough for them to see themselves reflected in each other’s eyes.
"Buckling your seatbelt for you." Xu Xiuhe found the seatbelt on the passenger side and pulled it over. In this position, it looked as if Xu Xiuhe was hugging Shen Yin.
Xu Xiuhe was truly handsome. Shen Yin felt her face become fiery hot, even hotter than before. How could it have gotten so bad so quickly? Shen Yin looked at herself in the mirror, her face was as red as a red apple.
She seemed to know why her face was burning. She was shy. Fortunately, she had a fever, otherwise she wouldn't have known how to explain and cover up why her face was so red.
"How can you still come to work here when you're sick? I'll find another auntie to help you take care of the child too," Xu Xiuhe said while driving.
But Shen Yin just shook her head again. She wouldn’t feel at ease about anyone else taking care of Zhengzheng. During this time with Zhengzheng, Shen Yin felt her feelings towards him had deepened even more. After all, Zhengzheng was her own child that she gave birth to.
"I may have caught a chill while sleeping last night. My head felt a little dizzy this morning, and I thought it was because I didn't sleep well last night. I didn't expect to feel even dizzier this afternoon, even with some pain, before realizing that I might be sick with a fever."
Xu Xiuhe stretched out his right hand and touched Shen Yin’s forehead, "It’s so hot!"
But Shen Yin’s point of attention wasn’t on how hot it was. She felt Xu Xiuhe's hand was very cool, feeling very comfortable on her forehead. Xu Xiuhe’s fingers were long and well-proportioned, his skin was fair to begin with, and the blood vessels on his hands were clearly visible. Shen Yin could even smell the masculine cologne scent on Xu Xiuhe’s arm.
