"Then don't leave."
Ou Xuyan snorted.
Lu Fan turned around and left.
He didn't leave. Instead, he stayed outside. This woman ran away just like that. He had to watch her.
...
Soon, the news of Chief Lu asking for a leave of absence spread throughout the entire army. Yi Qiaoqiao also received the gossip first-hand --
"Did you guys hear, this morning, when Mrs. Lu was about to leave with her bag, Chief Lu kicked her bag over and carried her back into the house?"
"Not only that, Chief Lu even asked for a leave of absence. He stayed in the house to watch over Mrs. Lu, afraid that his wife would run away."
"Do you know why Mrs. Lu wanted to make a scene with Chief Lu? That's because last night, Chief Lu didn't say a word and pounced on Mrs. Lu!"
"Oh my god, Chief Lu is so manly. I really don't understand why Mrs. Lu is still angry. If it were any other woman, she would be so happy that she would fly to the sky."
Yi Qiaoqiao clenched her hands that were hanging by her side into fists. She wished she could pinch her nails into her palms. Why did things turn out like this?
She was the one who spread the rumor yesterday. When she heard the news from Mrs. Hai's window, she couldn't wait to spread it. But her goal was to get Lu Fan and Ou Xuyan to divorce. Why did it backfire?
Yi Qiaoqiao was so angry that she felt uncomfortable.
...
Ou Xuyan had been staying in the room. She really wanted to go out, but Lu Fan had locked the door, and he was still guarding outside. She couldn't go out at all.
At noon, there was a knock on the door. Then, the man's stiff voice came, "Ugly girl, it's time to eat!"
"No!"
The breathing outside was heavy. The man said fiercely, "If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. I'll see how long you can last."
Even if she starved to death, she wouldn't eat his food. He could rest assured.
Soon, it was evening. At this time, Ou Xuyan heard Mrs. Hai's voice from outside, "Chief Lu, I'm here to see if you and Mrs. Lu have reconciled. I just happened to make some meat patties. I'll give you some. Oh my, what happened to you, Chief Lu? Why are you so red?"
"Mrs. Lu," Mrs. Hai came to knock on the door, "Mrs. Lu, come out and take a look. Chief Lu seems to have a high fever."
He has a fever?
Ou Xuyan didn't believe it. Even with his strong body, he could get sick. And last night, he was so fierce. He didn't look like a patient at all?
Even if he had a fever, he deserved it. This was called retribution.
Ou Xuyan ignored her and went back to sleep.
"Mrs. Lu, I'm not joking. Chief Lu's forehead is very hot and his face is red. He really has a fever," Mrs. Hai said as she unlocked the door and pushed the door open.
"Mrs. Lu, please wake up. Hurry and take a look!" Mrs. Hai pulled Ou Xuyan up from the bed and pushed her out.
Ou Xuyan was forced to go outside. Lu Fan was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed. His face was indeed red, completely different from his usual wild and unruly appearance.
Ou Xuyan's heart skipped a beat. Then she bent down and touched his forehead. It was really hot.
He really had a fever!
"Mrs. Lu, what are you still standing there for? Hurry, I'll help you bring Chief Lu to the bed. Use a cold towel to wipe his body. I have some fever medicine at home. I'll go get it for Chief Lu to eat."
Ou Xuyan came back to her senses. "Oh, okay." She nodded her head foolishly, then laboriously put Lu Fan's heavy body on the bed with Mrs. Hai. Mrs.. Hai went back to get the fever medicine.
