Chapter 97: Following Like a Shadow (2)
After laughing at herself, Yinyin looked up at the sky. It was just a bright moon with few stars...
"It would be nice if the starry sky could be like it is now."
There is a bright moon in the sky . Although there are only a few stars, it is still so elegant and bright, unlike Yin Yin's heart which is too turbid now. But sometimes she should let go, appreciate the moonlight and relax. Whether she is anxious or worried, she can't change anything. She can only let nature take its course. At least she can adjust her mentality at the right time to face various situations. Otherwise, she can only hide under the protection of others, and then she can do nothing.
Just as Yin Yin was looking at the twinkling stars in the night sky.
'Will people turn into stars in the sky after they die? '
“Ugh!!!”
The words that flashed through her mind made Yinyin's head hurt as if it was splitting. She raised her hand to touch her forehead, and the pain soon disappeared...
"What just happened?"
After the pain disappeared, Yin Yin had no recollection of the words that had just flashed through her mind. She looked confused and even forgot what had happened. She only felt that she remembered something, and then her head hurt. After the pain disappeared, she remembered nothing.
He shook his head, and the pain in his head seemed to disappear completely. He put his hand on his forehead on the window sill again, looking at the starry sky in the dark night. The corners of his lips slightly curved, looking very desolate under the moonlight, and he slowly spoke: "Although I don't remember, could it be because of you?"
Such a tone can be heard to contain sadness and desolation. No matter when, a moonlit night when one is alone will always seem particularly desolate, just like Yin Yin at this moment.
After dinner and a short rest, Yinyin fell asleep. In her dream, she felt her head getting heavier and heavier, and then a cold feeling came over her. She also felt as if something was touching her face, which seemed familiar. Perhaps because her head seemed too heavy, she did not open her eyes. After all, she was already weak, and she was inevitably tired from running all the way...
The next day.
When Yin Yin opened her eyes, an unexpected yet expected person appeared in her sight...
"Yan——"
When she saw Zhou Yan appear in her sight, Yin Yin sat up calmly, but her body seemed a little weak. Seeing this, Zhou Yan, who was sitting on a stool beside the bed, hurriedly stood up and reached out to help Yin Yin sit up.
"Why would you--"
Despite feeling a little weak, Yin Yin was anxious to inquire about Zhou Yan's arrival. Ever since she didn't see Zhou Yan when she left yesterday, Yin Yin had already guessed whether Zhou Yan would follow her, and she actually guessed right.
"…Are you okay?"
Zhou Yan's sudden words made Yin Yin feel a little confused. It was also because of these words that Yin Yin realized that her body seemed to be a little weak. She looked at Zhou Yan in surprise.
"You had a fever last night."
Zhou Yan understood Yin Yin's surprise and answered calmly. Yin Yin suddenly understood and looked at Zhou Yan with wide eyes: "You... came last night?"
"...Well, you happened to be asleep at that time. I wanted to check on you, but I didn't expect you to have a fever. Fortunately, it was only a low temperature."
After listening to Zhou Yan's explanation, Yin Yin realized that what she felt last night was not a dream. Was it a low temperature fever? No wonder she felt heavy in the head and a little weak now.
"Thanks!"
Unable to find words, Yinyin could only thank him first, and then suddenly thought of something: "So... have you always been by my side taking care of me?"
Zhou Yan didn't answer. Yin Yin realized that Zhou Yan seemed a little different from before. She couldn't tell where. Moreover, the sadness in his eyes deepened. When she noticed it, Yin Yin's heart ached.
"Lie down for a while. Medicine and breakfast will be delivered soon."
After a moment's silence, Zhou Yan said calmly.
"……Um."
Zhou Yan's expression made Yin Yin unable to refuse, so she had to agree. With Zhou Yan's help, Yin Yin lay down again. After she lay down, Zhou Yan covered her with the quilt and tucked it in to prevent the wind from penetrating through the gap in the quilt. He was still as careful as ever when it came to things related to Yin Yin. However, after lying down, the two of them fell silent. Zhou Yan just looked at Yin Yin, and Yin Yin, who was being looked at, of course felt very uncomfortable and had to close her eyes as if to escape.
Not long after, Yin Yin heard a slight sound in her daze, and she opened her eyes again...
"You're awake."
Yin Yin had just opened her eyes when Zhou Yan's voice came, which showed that his eyes had never left Yin Yin.
"The medicine and breakfast have just been delivered, please wait."
Zhou Yan gave her instructions and stood up to the table to serve her medicine and breakfast. It turned out that the sound Yinyin heard was the sound of someone coming. Zhou Yan walked towards Yinyin with the tray of medicine and breakfast on it, put the tray on the stool where he had been sitting before, and then leaned over to help Yinyin, who was about to sit up, to sit up. Afterwards, Zhou Yan unilaterally fed Yinyin breakfast and medicine without Yinyin refusing...
"Well, it seems to have completely withdrawn."
After Yin Yin drank the medicine, Zhou Yan put his hand on Yin Yin's forehead to measure the temperature before he felt relieved and took his hand away. At this time, Yin Yin was already speechless. She didn't know how to start talking. She could only stare blankly at Zhou Yan, who was so familiar to her that he seemed a little strange and even scary.
"We still have some time before departure, so you should take a good rest and get enough energy. I'll leave first."
Having said that, before Yin Yin could react, Zhou Yan stood up, picked up the tray and walked away.
"Yan——"
After Zhou Yan took a few steps, Yin Yin seemed to come to her senses and shouted without thinking. After this shout, Zhou Yan stopped and turned around with his back to Yin Yin.
