“You’ve caught a cold? Hurry and sit down.”
Shen Yunci pulled Lu Ning to a chair. Lu Zhi came out from the kitchen. “What’s wrong?”
“Ning’ning seems to have caught a cold.”
“A cold!”
Lu Zhi placed the bowl on the table and walked over. He raised his hand to touch Lu Ning’s forehead and was relieved when it was not hot.
Then, he went to look for medicine with Shen Yunci.
Lu Ning said, “Dad, Mom, it’s not that serious. I’ll just go to the school’s infirmary for them to take a look.”
“No, no, you have to take some medicine. Otherwise, it’ll get worse. Hey, where did you put the medicine?”
“I’d kept it here. Why isn’t it here? I’ll go and buy some now!”
Lu Ning:
Before Lu Ning could stop him, as she stood up Lu Qing came back with a bag in hand.
Seeing the entire family standing up, he could not help but stare at them in bewilderment.
“What happened?”
“What have you got there?”
Shen Yunci walked over and looked at the bag in his hand.
“The medicine we bought previously. Wasn’t our medicine box at home running out of medicine? I left it in the car two days ago and forgot to take it.”
Before he could finish, Shen Yunci snatched it. “Is there any cold medicine…
Found it!”
Lu Zhi quickly went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
“Who caught a cold?”
“Sister caught it.”
As Lu Jingzhi spoke, he walked over and brought a small bun to Lu Ning’s mouth. “Sister, eat something. Don’t take medicine on an empty stomach.”
Lu Ning smiled helplessly. After sitting back down, she bit into the bun he handed her.
She stopped resisting and just sat there, watching them fuss over her.
When she went out, Shen Yunci nagged at her, “Wear more clothes, wear something over those. Your clothes are too thin, put this on.”
“Have your brother send you there instead of riding the scooter. Remember to drink the tea in the thermos, it’ll keep you warm.”
Lu Ning nodded and walked out.
She got into Lu Qing’s car with Lu Jingzhi.
Lu Qing dropped Lu Ning off first.
“Bye bye, Sister. Remember to drink more water.”
Lu Ning nodded and closed the car door.
Lu Qing saw that her gait was obviously different from usual. He frowned, then started the car to send Lu Jingzhi off.
Lu Ning arrived late. When she went up the stairs, she saw that the students in the classrooms on each floor were all seated neatly. The corridor was also very quiet. Other than the sound of pages rustling, there were no other sounds.
Lu Ning looked down at her feet and walked up step by step. She felt like she was seeing double.
She reached out and grabbed the stair railing.
She climbed up, step by step. She had never felt so sluggish before.
Huo Jinyan was walking towards the classroom. When he reached the stairs, he saw her climbing up, slowly and unsteadily.
She was climbing up just like a snail; he simply stood at the top of the stairs and observed her.
Lu Ning’s head was lowered and she did not notice him at all, she was still climbing the stairs. Just as she was about to bump into Huo Jinyan, Huo Jinyan raised his hand and pressed it against her head.
Lu Ning was momentarily stunned before she looked up. When she saw Huo Jinyan, she was frozen for another two seconds before she subconsciously wanted to back away. When she did, she missed a step. Fortunately, she was still holding the railing, and Huo Jinyan quickly raised his hand to grab her other arm.
Seeing that something was clearly wrong with her, Huo Jinyan helped her stand.
“What happened?”
Lu Ning looked at him as she took a step back, trying her best to distance herself from him. She even raised a hand to cover her nose and mouth.
Huo Jinyan could not hold back a frown when he saw her actions.
Lu Ning said in a muffled voice, “I have a cold. Stay away from me, it’s contagious..”
