Keep Distance, Mr. CEO!

Chapter 149: Chapter 149 He’s got a fever!

Indeed, as soon as she kicked the door open, she saw the faucet at the washbasin running, and next to that washbasin, there was someone. However, he wasn’t in any trouble, he was just standing there!

His hands were propped on the washstand as he stood there with his head lowered.

Ye Ning felt a bit embarrassed, "Ou Mucen, I..."

Before she could finish, the man suddenly swayed where he stood. She was startled and hurried over to support him, "Ou Mucen, are you alright?"

"Help me... back to the room!" He tried to keep his voice calm, but in truth, when this woman rushed over, his entire weight had already shifted onto her.

It was then that Ye Ning finally felt the burning temperature of his body and the gasping breaths through his nose and mouth, as if he were trying to light a brazier.

Could he be sick?

She supported him, leading him out of the bathroom, and nearly as soon as they reached the bed, he collapsed onto it, almost crushing her beneath him.

"Ou Mucen? Ou Mucen, how are you feeling?" Once again feeling his scorching body heat, Ye Ning started to panic. She got up from beside him and reached out to touch his forehead.

As expected, it was very hot!

She came to a realization and quickly stood up from the bed.

She should have thought of it earlier—when he arrived, he was already not himself, drenched all over. As he was leaving, he staggered, nearly falling onto her. And at that moment, when she touched him, his body was terribly cold.

Ye Ning glanced at the man who had quickly lost consciousness on the bed, then hurriedly slipped into her slippers and dashed out the door, "Manager, is there a doctor here? My boss is sick with a high fever."

The innkeeper immediately stood up at the news, "A doctor? No, what time is it now? The clinic is already closed. You should go buy some medicine."

"Is the pharmacy still open?"

"Yes, it’s open until midnight. You still have twenty minutes if you go now. Hurry up." The innkeeper’s wife also became anxious, pulling out a flashlight and handing it to her.

Seeing that, Ye Ning didn’t waste any more time. She took the flashlight and rushed to find the pharmacy.

Caring for a sick person was not unfamiliar to her; Xiaobao had been often ill since birth due to her not taking care during pregnancy. Back then, she frequently took care of him, even staying up all night to do so.

Thus, upon hearing that the pharmacy was still open, she felt somewhat less panicked. She hurried on her way, ignoring the pain of her own injury, and made it to the pharmacy.

Really, how could such a grown man carelessly get soaked in the rain? She was abandoned on the highway and hadn’t given up hope, so why would he act like a lunatic and do something so foolish?

Ye Ning was full of complaints by the time she found the pharmacy.

Fortunately, it indeed hadn’t closed, so she bought a box of cold medicine and antibiotics, along with a thermometer, before heading back.

Back at the inn, the innkeeper’s wife had not gone to bed. Seeing Ye Ning return, she quickly brought over a kettle of hot water, "I thought there was something wrong with your boss earlier—he was all wet. He must have caught a chill. Change his clothes for him, have him drink more water, and getting the cold out should do the trick."

Ye Ning: "..."

That’s right, that jerk, why didn’t he change his clothes? Soaking wet and still wearing them, serves him right to be sick to death!

Ye Ning carried the kettle of hot water back, her mood worse than just bad.
