God of Racing-Chapter 416 - 409

Yu Sangwan clutched the towel around her chest and walked slowly toward him, appearing shy, "Aren’t you going to take a shower?"

Lu Jinxuan nervously clenched his fist and instinctively took two steps back, a look of horror on his face.

"Jinxuan?" Yu Sangwan noticed something seemed off with him, "What’s wrong with you?"

"Don’t come over! Stay away!" Lu Jinxuan raised his hand, resisting her approach, and his eyes clearly conveyed the same message.

"..."

Yu Sangwan was baffled. He... actually told her not to come near? How could it be? Hadn’t he always liked her? Even if his feelings were uncertain, he had always shown a strong interest in her as a person! Now he wants her to stay away?

Yu Sangwan couldn’t believe it, she forced a dry smile, "Jinxuan, are you feeling unwell?"

With that, she moved two steps closer and raised her hand towards Lu Jinxuan’s forehead.

"Ah..." Lu Jinxuan reacted as if shocked by electricity, trembling all over, his deep eyes glaring fiercely at Yu Sangwan, "I told you to stay away! Didn’t you understand?"

"I..." Yu Sangwan shook her head frantically, completely at a loss with this side of Lu Jinxuan.

Lu Jinxuan’s lips tightened, and he gritted his teeth, speaking lowly, "Are you so cheap! Throwing yourself at a man?"

"..."

Yu Sangwan’s face turned deathly pale. She was only wrapped in a towel, but it felt like he had stripped her bare and put her on display! Her dignity was ruthlessly thrown to the ground and shattered instantly! What was she doing?

She bit her lower lip so hard that her teeth pierced through her skin, and blood oozed out.

Lu Jinxuan furrowed his brows, "You..."

"I got it." Yu Sangwan choked out, nodding, "I... overthought it."

After saying this, she decisively turned around.

"..." Lu Jinxuan panicked, stepping forward trying to stop her, yet unsure of what to say.

Yu Sangwan halted her steps, back facing him, her hair still wet, water droplets trickled down from the ends, sliding over her smooth shoulders.

"I don’t know who you truly are, or what you’ve encountered, but I promised Mr. Tang that I would take good care of you during this period... You can stay here assured, I will fulfill my promise, and beyond that, I won’t think any more!"

Her words were clear, but Lu Jinxuan listened with furrowed brows, as if he had an unspeakable secret.

Outside, the rain poured heavily, inside the apartment, one lay on the bed, another nestled on the sofa, neither speaking.

Yu Sangwan faced inward, curling up. She kept reminding herself not to overthink it... This man’s attitude was ever-changing, always giving her some hope, then tearing it apart! How could she be foolish enough to believe he had sincere feelings!

And on the bed, Lu Jinxuan was staring unblinkingly at Yu Sangwan, holding his head in frustration.

"Fall asleep quickly! What’s wrong with you? Have you gone mad?"

He was sweating profusely in anxiety, but just couldn’t fall asleep! The person who could make him sleep peacefully was now lying just a short distance away on the sofa...

Lu Jinxuan tossed and turned in agony, murmuring, "Fall asleep quickly! Become the Lu Jinxuan she wants... Can’t sleep, what to do?"

The sound of turning behind, Yu Sangwan heard it too, trying hard not to get up... This man was toxic, the more you look, liking him would only increase by a fraction!

Lu Jinxuan curled up, headache worsening, gradually becoming unbearable, his body trembling, "Hmm..."

A painful groan escaped from his throat.

Yu Sangwan was not asleep, hearing the sound wasn’t right, she couldn’t resist getting up. She promised Tang Yueze to take good care of him, she couldn’t just leave it alone. She lifted the blanket off and walked to the side of the sofa, tentatively asking, "What’s wrong with you?"

"Headache, cold, cold..." Lu Jinxuan responded softly, looking quite unwell.

"You..." In her urgency, Yu Sangwan hurried over to the bedside, sitting down, reaching her hand towards his forehead, her palm finding it hot!

"Do you have a fever?"

"Fever..." Lu Jinxuan’s brows furrowed tightly, his expression a mix of confusion and innocence, "I... have a fever?"

Yu Sangwan was both anxious and helpless, "Is your body that weak? You saved me from a burning building before, and even jumping into the sea, you were fine... Just from some rain, you get a fever? Are you a child?"

Child... Hearing those three words, Lu Jinxuan shivered in fright.

"..." Yu Sangwan paused, quickly holding his hand, "It’s okay, catching a cold due to the rain isn’t a big deal, I’ll get some medicine... after taking it, you’ll sweat it out and be fine."

"Hmm..." Lu Jinxuan nodded, his eyes covered with a mist, if it weren’t for this 27-year-old mature man’s body, Yu Sangwan would really suspect he was a child.

Yu Sangwan went to get a thermometer and medicine, checked his temperature, it was a slight fever, "Here, take the medicine..."

Lu Jinxuan obediently did as told, and Yu Sangwan wrapped him tightly in a blanket.

"Sleep now!" Yu Sangwan tucked him in, "I’ll get some ice from the fridge to put on you to help bring down the fever, it shouldn’t be a big problem."

"..." Lu Jinxuan quietly watched her bustle around without saying a word, very obedient.

Yu Sangwan brought over the ice, placed it on Lu Jinxuan’s forehead, seeing his eyes still open, she softly urged, "Get some sleep! I’m here watching..."

Lu Jinxuan just looked at her, not following her advice.

Yu Sangwan’s heart skipped a beat, her gaze darkened, "Are you worried that I might do something to you? Rest assured, I’m not that cheap. I promised I wouldn’t think too much... I certainly won’t think too much. I’m just... fulfilling my promise to Mr. Tang."

"No, I..." Lu Jinxuan shook his head in panic, yet couldn’t continue.

Yu Sangwan smiled bitterly, "Whatever it is, close your eyes and sleep!"

"Mm." Lu Jinxuan, afraid she might overthink, and perhaps unable to face her, immediately closed his eyes.

"Sigh..."

Yu Sangwan sighed, resting her chin on the edge of the bed, replacing the ice pack for him without a word. Finally, unable to resist her fatigue, she fell asleep leaning against the bed.

Almost at the exact moment, Lu Jinxuan opened his eyes. He quietly watched Yu Sangwan’s sleeping face, his brow slightly furrowed. After a long time, he muttered, "Just now you were so wronged, and now you’re not holding any grudges... Aren’t you afraid that you’ll end up with nothing, acting like this? Sigh..."

Knowing she was sound asleep and wouldn’t wake up, Lu Jinxuan took her hand and placed it on his cheek, slowly closing his eyes.

They woke up in the morning with their hands tightly clasped together, and almost at the same time, opened their eyes.

Their gazes met, and Yu Sangwan quickly looked away, withdrawing her hand as well.

"..." Lu Jinxuan furrowed his brows, feeling unfamiliar with the situation before him. Last night... How was she sleeping by the bedside? There were medicines and ice packs on the nightstand?

Yu Sangwan stood up without a word, took the ice packs, and turned to leave.

"Wanwan!" Lu Jinxuan hurriedly called out to her, but she still didn’t stop walking.

"Ugh..." With a sudden throb in his head, Lu Jinxuan reached up to rub it, that feeling of a blank mind overwhelmed him again! What was going on?

When he got back yesterday, they were clearly about to ’get to the point’... So what happened afterward? How did he... with her?

Lu Jinxuan furrowed his brows, trying very hard to recall... but it was futile.

He got out of bed, and Yu Sangwan was already preparing breakfast.

"Wanwan." Lu Jinxuan walked over, choosing his words carefully, "Last night, did I... hurt you?"

He thought that the incident was too intense.

Yu Sangwan’s hand, which was cutting tofu, paused. She tugged at the corners of her mouth, giving a bitter smile, "No, you didn’t hurt me."

"Then..." Lu Jinxuan tapped his forehead, "You’re unhappy?"

"No!" Yu Sangwan turned around, forcing a smile at him, "I’m fine... Oh, by the way, how long do I have to take care of you like this? Did Mr. Tang give any specific instructions?"

Her instinct felt off, her smile shouldn’t be like this.

Raising his hand, he grabbed her wrist, "What’s wrong with you? Weren’t we fine yesterday?"

Yesterday? He had the nerve to bring up yesterday? What was his heart made of?

Yu Sangwan took several deep breaths, shaking her head with a smile, "Nothing! We’re fine now too! I’m taking good care of you, you focus on your work... When you’re done and gone, we won’t owe each other anything!"

She broke free from him and went to serve breakfast, "Let’s eat!"

Watching her profile, that intense stubbornness emanated from him. Lu Jinxuan considered himself to have a bit of understanding of this girl... Something must have happened last night!

In addition, he had a vague feeling inside, fearing it might be related to his illness! How serious had his illness become? He couldn’t contact Tang Yueze at this moment, otherwise, he really wanted to ask about his illness, besides insomnia... what other symptoms were there?

At the Original House, in Tang Yueze’s room.

The door was quietly pushed open, and Lu Feixuan tiptoed in, not daring to make any sound.

"Brother Yuezhe."

"Mm?" Tang Yueze was leaning over handling some business affairs. Hearing Lu Feixuan’s voice, he immediately stopped, "Third Miss!"

He struggled to get up, pulling at the wound on his back, and couldn’t help but frown painfully, "Ugh..."

"Ah!" Lu Feixuan was startled, hurried over, and flung herself onto the bedside, anxiously furrowing her brows, "Are you okay? Don’t move around!"

Tang Yueze glanced at his hand held by her, quietly withdrew it, "Thank you for your concern, Third Miss."

"..." Lu Feixuan froze, her expression dimmed. "Brother Yuezhe, are you mad at me?"

Tang Yueze looked surprised, "What is the Third Miss saying? I dare not."

Lu Feixuan pouted, muttering, "It’s my fault, I shouldn’t always say in front of mom that I want to come here to see elder brother... I’ve caused trouble!"

"Heh..." Tang Yueze chuckled, shaking his head, "Third Miss, you’re overthinking... The Madam’s actions cannot be influenced by others."

"Mm." Upon hearing this, Lu Feixuan beamed with a smile, "So you’re not mad at me, Brother Yuezhe?"

Tang Yueze sighed, "I really am not."

"Ah!" Lu Feixuan clapped her hands, exclaiming excitedly, "By the way! I came to tell you! Mom went to the ’Small Villa’!"

The "Small Villa" naturally referred to Mu Qinglan’s place!
