He Xu looked up at the time on the wall. It was already past eight forty, and it was long past dinner time.

He said to Su Xing, "Are you hungry? Go eat something. I can do it here by myself."

He guessed that his girlfriend was already hungry.

Su Xing said, "Wait until you finish the infusion before eating. It won't take too long."

She paused and asked him again: "Do you want to eat something? I'll go buy you something to eat?"

He Xu shook his head gently, "I don't have much appetite."

Su Xing said, "Then I'll go buy some water. The doctor also prescribed you some oral medicine. Take it first."

"Good~"

Su Xing stood up and left the infusion hall.

There was a vending machine in the hospital, so she went to buy two bottles of water. She also saw that there was also a vending machine selling eight-treasure porridge, so she bought a can as well.

After shopping, she quickly returned to the infusion hall.

From the moment He Xu woke up and walked into the door, his eyes were fixed on her, and he kept watching her walk back to him.

Su Xing sat down next to He Xu and opened the eight-treasure porridge. "Taking medicine on an empty stomach is not good for your stomach. Eat a few mouthfuls of porridge before taking the medicine."

He Xu responded: "Okay."

Su Xing scooped a spoonful of eight-treasure porridge and fed it to He Xu's lips.

He Xu opened his mouth and ate the porridge.

The pregnant woman and her mother-in-law opposite, as well as the middle-aged couple, all looked at the young couple with smiles.

He Xu noticed other people's gazes and felt a little embarrassed.

Su Xing seemed unaware of He Xu's embarrassment and scooped another spoonful of porridge and brought it to his mouth.

He Xu tried hard to ignore the gazes around him, opened his mouth, and ate.

Su Xing fed him one spoonful at a time, and He Xu ate it one bite at a time.

He originally had no appetite, but after eating this porridge, it seemed as if his appetite had been whetted and it tasted very sweet.

Before he knew it, he had finished the whole pot of porridge.

Su Xing took out a pack of tissues from his backpack, pulled out a piece of paper, and wiped the corner of He Xu's mouth.

He Xu's face turned even redder.

Su Xing got up and found a trash can to throw away the porridge can and paper towels.

After returning, she took out the oral medicine prescribed by the doctor from her small bag, took the medicine according to the instructions, and opened a bottle of water.

She fed the medicine into He Xu's mouth and brought the water bottle to his mouth.

He Xu took medicine and drank water with the help of his girlfriend.

The patients and family members who were accompanying them nearby couldn't help but smile when they saw the interaction between the young couple.

Su Xing opened another bottle of water and gulped down most of it to fool his stomach.

After a few more minutes, He Xu's first bottle of medicine was empty.

Su Xing rang the bell.

The nurse quickly brought over another bottle of medicine.

"The patient's name is He Xu, right?"

The nurse routinely checks the patient's name.

Su Xing said, "Yes."

The nurse flushed the tube with saline and replaced the second bottle of medicine.

"Call me when the medicine is finished," the nurse instructed.

Su Xing responded: "Okay, thank you."

He Xu also thanked him politely, "Thank you."

This time there is only half a bottle of medicine.

He Xu wanted to inject faster, so he reached out and adjusted the speed of the dropper to the fastest.

As soon as he put his hand down, Su Xing raised his hand and adjusted the dropper a little slower.

He Xu looked at his girlfriend, with a hint of grievance in his eyes.

Su Xing glared at her boyfriend, "Why are you in such a hurry? Dripping too fast will irritate your blood vessels."

He Xu said "Oh" and didn't dare to argue.

After more than half an hour, the medicine was finally injected.

Su Xing pressed the call bell.

The nurse came over with a thermometer.

"Take the patient's temperature again."

She handed the thermometer to Su Xing.

Su Xing reached out and took it, "Okay."

The nurse removed the needle from He Xu and said, "Press it for a while, don't rub it."

He Xu pressed the needle eye with his other hand, "Okay."

Su Xing reached under the hem of He Xu's sweatshirt and helped him clip the thermometer on.

Five minutes later, the nurse came back.

He Xu took out the thermometer himself and handed it to the nurse.

The nurse looked at the thermometer against the light and said, "37.5 degrees, still a bit of a low fever. It should go away once the medicine takes effect. Go back and get more rest and drink plenty of water."

Su Xing responded, "Okay, thank you."

The nurse left.

Su Xing put his coat on He Xu.

The two stood up and prepared to leave.

The pregnant woman opposite suddenly waved to Su Xing and said, "Goodbye."

Su Xing smiled and waved goodbye to the other party, "Bye."

When the aunt saw the young couple leaving, she couldn't help but ask her daughter-in-law, "Do you know them?"

The pregnant woman said: "I don't know her. I went to the pharmacy to get medicine before, and the girl gave me her seat in the queue."

Her mother-in-law still had a bottle of medicine to finish, so she had to wait a while.

"I see... She's a very kind girl, pretty, and her boyfriend is also pretty."

The older sister next to him also said, "Yes, this young couple looks like the male and female protagonists in a TV series."

……

Su Xing supported He Xu and walked out of the infusion hall.

When passing by the reception desk, He Xu stopped and said to the nurse inside: "Hello, can you give me a mask?"

The nurse took out a disposable mask from the drawer and handed it to He Xu, "Here."

"Thank you."

"You are welcome."

He Xu put on a mask.

The two came to the parking lot and got in the car.

He Xu said, "Let's find a place and I'll go have dinner with you."

Su Xing asked him, "Are you hungry?"

He Xu said, "I ate eight-treasure porridge and don't want to eat anything for the time being. I'll watch you eat."

Su Xing understood why He Xu asked the nurse for a mask. He was afraid of spreading the virus by going to the restaurant.

However, seeing that He Xu looked so weak, she didn't want to go to the restaurant and just wanted to take him home to rest as soon as possible.

"Let's not go to the restaurant, let's go home."

"Go back after you finish eating. I feel much better after the IV drip. It's okay for me to stay outside for a while longer."

Su Xing said: "I'll order takeout now, and it will be here soon when we get home."

He Xu couldn't persuade his girlfriend, so he had to listen to her, "Okay."

Su Xing took out his cell phone, quickly ordered some takeout, then started the car and drove towards the apartment.

The two returned home.

Su Xing helped He Xu take off his coat, and then reached out to help him change his clothes.

He Xu blushed and said, "I can do it myself."

He quickly changed into his pajamas and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth.

When Su Xing saw him come out, he asked, "Would you like to lie down for a while?"

"it is good……"

He Xu lay down on the bed and pulled up the blanket.

Seeing that He Xu's face was still red, Su Xing reached out and touched his forehead.

Doesn't it seem so hot anymore?

She was worried, so she took the thermometer and took his temperature again.

36.9 degrees, the fever has gone down.

Su Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked down at He Xu.

Although the fever has subsided, he still looks a little listless and lacks energy.

But his sickly look has a unique beauty.

It made her feel itchy.

She couldn't help but lean over and get closer to him...

He Xu turned his head to avoid Su Xing.

Su Xing asked him with a smile: "Why are you hiding?"

He Xu said: "Don't infect you..."

"I'm in good health. Besides, we are in the same space. If my physical resistance is not good enough, I won't be able to escape."

After Su Xing finished speaking, she kissed him forcefully on the cheek.

He Xu: “…”

He felt helpless and amused, he really had no idea what to do with her.

Su Xing was still not satisfied and wanted to go closer.

At this time, the doorbell rang.

She guessed that the takeaway must have arrived.
