What the hell does it mean by getting jealous for... How could Ye Chen even get jealous? How could such a generous man like Ye Chen get jealous out of nothing? It was simply too unreasonably troublesome!
Who would have imagined that Death System immediately added, "Daily mission: let Ren Jing feed the medicine to you at least three times."
Ye Chen, "..."
Death System said, "How nice, both the daily mission and weekly mission are here at the same time. It'd be so easy for you."
Ye Chen kept himself wrapped inside the blanket and asked with a muffled voice, "Why do I need to take medicine when it's just a mild cold?"
Death System was amused."So you're actually afraid to take medicine?"
Ye Chen forced himself to explain, "Laozi dislikes taking medicine."
Death System pretended it didn't hear anything."Don't panic, just let Ren Jing feed the medicine to you using his mouth, it'll definitely not be bitter anymore."
Ye Chen wanted to curse it, but after carefully pondering over the scene it described, his face felt like it had heated up even more!
Ye Chen was in a very complicated mood. He wanted the cold to recover quickly, yet also wanted it to recover slowly. At the same time, he was afraid of taking the medicine, but he was kind of looking forward to it, too... Yup, it was probably the fever that messed his mind up.
The Death System summarized his thoughts."It's not the fever, it's you being horny."
Ye Chen, "..."
Death System felt really proud of itself and stated, "Chinese language sure is extensive and profound."
Ye Chen simply wanted to let it know that Chinese Kungfu was a lot more extensive and profound.
Ye Chen woke up early because his head hurt. He pressed the switch and the curtain opened automatically. It was still pitch-dark outside.
It's only six o'clock...
Ye Chen felt bored stiff just lying on the bed. He couldn't bring himself to sleep anymore, thus he took his cellphone and swiped through it.
He accidentally opened up WeChat and saw Ren Jing's name. But then, he immediately closed the app.
He kept on doing the same thing thrice.
Death System asked him quietly, "Do you want me to release a random mission to task you to give Ren Jing a call?"
Ye Chen's eyes brightened up."Is there one?"
Death System replied, "There is."
Ye Chen pursed up his lips."Then why haven't you released it yet?"
Death System said, "Will you do a random mission without any life point rewards?"
Ye Chen, "..." This spicy chicken system!
Ye Chen felt really defeated by the System. In the end, he made the call.
When he saw the name 'Ren Jing' on the screen, he suddenly felt diffident. He thought of hurriedly hanging up, but it was too late.
Ren Jing answered very fast.
Ye Chen didn't say anything.
Ren Jing's voice sounded very clear. He probably woke up early. He asked Ye Chen, "You are up this early?"
Ye Chen said, "Aren't you also up early... ?"
Ye Chen didn't realize it since he hadn't spoken out, but now that he did, he noticed that his voice was really hoarse.
Ren Jing immediately realized."What happened? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
People were mostly like this. When no one cared about them, a headache and a slight fever were not a big deal. It would get better just by taking some medicine and drinking some water.
But now that there was someone who was this sharp, caring, and concerned about him, the headache and slight fever became such inconvenience.
Ye Chen said, "I'm alright." Don't be unreasonable, you're a dignified three-feet tall man, Boss Ye!
Ren Jing asked, "Did you catch a cold? Are you having a fever? Wait at your house, I'll be right there."
Ye Chen suddenly felt like crying. He had turned from a boss into a pitiful little boy.
How could Ren Jing be so good? How could he be so, very good!?
Ye Chen stated, "Aren't you busy today? You should do your business first, I'm fine by myself."
Ren Jing asked him back, "Have you measured your temperature? Did you catch the cold last night?"
Ye Chen replied, "I'm alright... It's nothing, really."
As the two talked, Ye Chen didn't realize how long the time had passed. Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Ye Chen was still talking to Ren Jing on the phone. He thought that it was Xiao Liu who came, thus he said, "I'll open the door first, it's probably Xiao Liu..."
Right after he said so, he saw Ren Jing through the peephole.
Ye Chen's eyes widened. He said as he was still holding the cellphone, "How did you come so quick?"
Ren Jing smiled."Open the door."
Ye Chen hung up the call and promptly opened the door.
As soon as Ren Jing entered the house, he stuck his hand on Ye Chen's forehead. After feeling it for a while, he slightly knitted his brows."You have a fever."
All that was stuffed in Ye Chen's mind was: how could Ren Jing get here so quickly? They had just talked on the phone, but now he was in front of his eyes... Then, he took a glance at his cellphone and saw that the call record showed that the call duration was 23 minutes.
Has it been that long?
Ye Chen almost thought that his cellphone was broken!
Since Ren Jing had come, then let it be, but he even brought along a bevy of things, including thermometer, cold medicine, and even some food ingredients.
Ye Chen was feeling sincerely moved as he took his temperature."You... you..." He really didn't know what to say anymore.
So awesome! In short... Ren Jing is so, very awesome!
The temperature shown on the thermometer was exactly the same as what Death System said, 38. 9 degree, not different one bit.
Ren Jing said, "I'll make you something to eat. You should take the medicine after you've had your meal."
Ye Chen thought that he should say this: I'm alright, I really am. So you should do your work and you don't have to stay, I could manage by myself.
But he couldn't bring himself to say it. He didn't want Ren Jing to leave, and it really wasn't because of the missions.
Ren Jing held the back of Ye Chen's head, then pulled him closer and gave him a kiss between his forehead. He said in a soft voice, "Wait for a bit, the food will be ready soon."
Ye Chen said under his breath, "... Alright."
Ren Jing cooked congee for him. With the addition of some fresh and tasty side dishes, the congee looked delicious and appetizing.
Ye Chen didn't actually have much appetite, but since Ren Jing had gone through a lot of trouble to make it for him, he had to eat a bit of it no matter what.
Ren Jing filled two small bowls with congee, but he didn't eat it. He simply stirred it gently with a spoon.
Ye Chen asked, "Why don't you eat the congee?"
Ren Jing replied, "I've already had breakfast."
Ye Chen was puzzled. What was that extra bowl for?
He found out soon enough. As soon as he had just finished his small bowl of congee, Ren Jing gave his bowl to him."The congee's temperature is just right, you should have more."
He was actually helping Ye Chen to cool the congee down!
It was really so considerate of him!
Ye Chen actually felt full just by eating a small bowl of congee, but he decided to eat the other bowl. After all, Ren Jing had worked hard to cool it down by stirring it.
Death System as an onlooker thought: Ren Jing is an expert at raising a 'pig'!
After finishing the meal, Ye Chen's spirit had improved a lot. Ren Jing looked for some medicine for him.
Ye Chen was at a loss that he became really entangled. He has a very narrow throat, which was why he could choke easily when swallowing capsules. Also, when he used water to gulp it down, the capsule's coating would be dissolved. The medicine tasted very sour.
But then, most dissolved medicine would taste weird. Even the ones with the label 'sweet fruity flavor' written on its sachet usually tasted really terrible that he wanted to vomit.
Ye Chen came over to take a look. He really wanted to say that he couldn't take capsules medicine, but in the end, he saw that all the medicines Ren Jing bought were dissolved ones... He thought that it had to be really bitter.
Ren Jing turned his head around and saw Ye Chen, then smiled as he said, "They're not bitter, the taste isn't that bad."
Ye Chen thought inside his heart, That's what people who didn't have to take medicine always say.
After the medicine was dissolved, the amount was just right, about less than half a teacup. Ye Chen had summoned his courage and was about to take a sip, but then felt really stifled.
The Death System reminded him, "The mission requires you to let Ren Jing feed you the medicine. Do you get it? You have to be fed by Ren Jing!"
Ye Chen, "..." I almost forgot!
He stared at the teacup, then looked at Ren Jing, then stared back at the teacup and looked at Ren Jing again... His heart was in a mess. Ye Chen finally opened his mouth, "I... I..." No matter how he forced himself, he couldn't say it!
Ren Jing looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ye Chen felt really wronged. He really wished that Ren Jing could receive his telepathy!
"I don't want to take the medicine." Ye Chen whispered.
Ren Jing said, "You should have some, otherwise your cold won't get better. It would be uncomfortable for you."
Ye Chen didn't dare to look at Ren Jing. He simply added some words softly, "I don't want to take the medicine by myself."
Ren Jing was startled.
So Ye Chen was actually feeling hot... what bullshit fever? Now he turned even hotter as if he had turned into the Flaming Mountains.
Ren Jing obviously heard what Ye Chen said. He smiled faintly, then said in a low voice, "Let me help you."
My words reached him! Ye Chen immediately felt delighted. He took the initiative to say, "I'll grab the spoo-"
Since he would be fed, they certainly needed to use the spoon. But in the end, Ye Chen was kissed before he even finished his words.
Along the sweet and cloying french kiss came the truly-not-bitter medicine.
Ye Chen had taken countless cold medicines in his life, but this was definitely the sweetest one he had ever taken. It felt so sweet that his heart felt like it was on cloud nine.
You know what... When I translated that chapter when Ren Jing was sick, somehow, I'm sick too. And when I did this chapter, again, I fell sick LMAO... I guess I'm spiritually connected to my children HAHAHA... ~del~Except that I got no one to pamper me and all that sweet things MUAHAHAHAH~/del~
