The doctor came to check on Qiao Yuxian.
Low immunity due to her physiological period and exhaustion from staying up late caused a cold and high fever.
The issue wasn't severe, so the doctor prescribed some medication and left.
Qiao Yuxian took the medicine and lay down, Aunt Mei set up everything needed and left.
Watching Aunt Mei leave, Gu Yanjing was about to leave too. She reached out to grab his sleeve, but because Gu Yanjing had already taken a step forward, she missed his sleeve and caught his finger.
Gu Yanjing felt her cold fingers and paused, looking at her.
Qiao Yuxian felt uncomfortable with the fever and didn't want to be alone, so she didn't notice she was holding his finger and said, "Can you stay with me for a while?"
When she was a child and got sick, her grandparents would stay with her. As she grew older, her grandmother would stay and sleep with her.
That's why whenever she's sick, she really hopes someone can stay, otherwise she can't sleep.
