Chapter 53
53: 53 As if Holding a Fragile Treasure 53: 53 As if Holding a Fragile Treasure By the time she got home, it was already midnight.
An Ji had gone to bed early, but he had left a light on for her.
The living room light was still on, giving An Ruo a sense of warmth as soon as she returned.
Xiao Ji was the sole warmth in her heart.
For his sake, she had to remain strong and carry on.
After taking a hot shower in the bathroom and putting on dry pajamas, An Ruo dried her hair and finally fell into a deep sleep, but she didn’t sleep well that night.
In her dreams, Tang Yuchen’s demonic face kept appearing in her mind, unshakable, like a nightmare.
The next day, An Ruo went to work not feeling very spirited.
A few assistants noticed her pale complexion and advised her to take a day off to rest, but An Ruo just smiled, shook her head, and declined their kind offer.
She had only started working a few days ago, so how could she feel comfortable asking for time off?
She really needed the job and didn’t want to lose it.
At lunchtime, feeling dizzy and nauseous with no appetite at all, An Ruo decided not to eat and proceeded to start on her afternoon tasks ahead of time.
In the president’s office, Yun Feiyang had not gone for lunch either.
Through the slits in the blinds, he saw An Ruo still at work.
At first, he was taken aback, then his brow furrowed, and he got up and walked out.
Approaching An Ruo and seeing her pale face, the wrinkles between Yun Feiyang’s eyebrows deepened, “Are you ill?”
Yun Feiyang didn’t notice that his voice carried an unmistakable note of concern and care.
An Ruo was startled by his voice.
She suddenly looked up and hastily got to her feet, “President Yun…”
Yun Feiyang suddenly reached out and touched her forehead.
An Ruo was taken aback by his action, and his warm hand landed on her forehead.
“Your forehead is very hot.
Do you have a fever?” Yun Feiyang withdrew his hand and said in a tone that brooked no refusal, “I’m granting you a day off.
Go home and rest for the day, come back tomorrow.”
An Ruo wanted to say it wasn’t necessary, but she truly felt terrible and didn’t want to fight against her own body, so she agreed.
“Thank you, President Yun.”
“Go home quickly.
Can you make it on your own, or should I take you?” The man’s dark eyes fixed on her, showing a hint of care.
An Ruo saw a fleeting emotion in his eyes and felt a touch of warmth in her heart.
After all, having someone show such concern for her made her very happy.
“No, I can get home by myself.” She gave him a grateful smile, picked up her things, and prepared to leave.
An Ruo took a couple of steps, and her footsteps immediately slowed.
Her head was spinning, and with every movement, her brain violently shook as if someone were hammering at her skull, causing her immense pain and discomfort.
Yun Feiyang noticed something was wrong with her.
Just as he was about to step forward and ask what was the matter, An Ruo suddenly staggered, her vision went black, and she fainted.
“An Ruo!” Yun Feiyang quickly caught her, and seeing her pale face, his heart clenched uncomfortably.
Without a second thought, he scooped her up in his arms, holding her tight as if cradling a fragile treasure.
When An Ruo woke up, she found herself in a hospital.
The pungent smell of disinfectant in the hospital made her feel worse and even more nauseous.
Yun Feiyang, who had been by her side the whole time, saw her wake up and quickly smiled, “You’re awake.
Do you feel discomfort anywhere?”
An Ruo stared at him for two seconds, then asked sheepishly:
