Billionaire's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 2027 - 170: Xia Ye Has a Fever
Everyone instantly understood.
Lu Yinxing didn’t think much, she was simply pondering the question.
She even thought everyone’s reactions were a bit strange.
The second round had already begun.
When the bottle stopped, it finally pointed to Lin Zhi.
Mai Xiaoqi asked, "Do you choose Truth or Dare?"
Lin Zhi said without hesitation, "I’ll choose Dare."
No one expected Lin Zhi to have the courage to choose Dare.
And this time the question was posed by Zhou Yimeng next to Mai Xiaoqi.
Zhou Yimeng flashed a wicked smile, "We have so many people here, Goddess, why not kiss someone?"
Lu Yinxing immediately said, "Zhou Yimeng, that’s too much."
Lin Zhi is not someone who can be easily joked with.
Moreover, it’s said that she comes from a strict family, jokes like this shouldn’t be made easily.
Zhou Yimeng acted innocent, "Isn’t that how you play Dare? She chose Dare herself."
The others also had gloating expressions.
Actually, Zhou Yimeng was giving Lin Zhi a chance to make up with Xia Ye.
If Lin Zhi had to kiss someone, surely it would be her boyfriend Xia Ye.
They had just quarreled due to Yao Xiaoqiang and were in a cold war, the atmosphere was quite icy.
Zhou Yimeng was being kind-hearted, trying to lighten the mood and ease the tension between them.
But only Lu Yinxing knew.
It wasn’t as simple as it seemed.
Even though Lin Zhi is Xia Ye’s girlfriend.
But Xia Ye was obviously still angry.
When Xia Ye gets angry, it’s terrifying; he won’t save any face.
If Lin Zhi really went up and was rejected, it would be truly humiliating.
Lin Zhi’s face instantly turned red.
She glanced sideways at Xia Ye.
Xia Ye was just sitting there.
He showed no reaction, his face was cold.
Even sitting with everyone, he felt unengaged.
It was as if nothing around him mattered.
Seeing Xia Ye’s demeanor, Lin Zhi felt a bit disappointed.
She didn’t dare to do it.
At this moment, Zhou Yimeng suggested, "How about just a kiss on the cheek then?"
Actually, seeing Xia Ye’s demeanor, Zhou Yimeng thought her original demand might have been excessive.
What if they hadn’t progressed to that stage?
What if it’s her first kiss?
Losing her first kiss in front of everyone, who would be happy?
Plus, that ice-cold demeanor was very intimidating.
Also, no one dared to joke about Xia Ye.
After all, Zhou Yimeng had already made the suggestion and now stepped back a bit.
If it still didn’t work, the game might not continue.
Next was Lin Zhi’s choice and Xia Ye’s reaction.
Since they were a couple, a kiss on the cheek shouldn’t cause a fallout, right?
Lin Zhi’s gaze fell on Xia Ye again.
But she quickly looked away.
Finally, Lin Zhi walked over to Lu Yinxing and kissed her on the cheek.
Lu Yinxing was a bit stunned too.
But she completely understood Lin Zhi’s reaction.
Xia Ye’s current situation was too risky.
Better not provoke him.
Lu Yinxing just smiled at Lin Zhi.
Everyone was actually quite disappointed.
Zhou Yimeng’s dare was originally well-intended.
But it didn’t yield the desired effect.
The game continued.
This time, the bottle spun for quite a while and finally stopped in front of Wu Mengmeng.
This time it was Guo Kaiti’s turn to ask questions.
"Mengmeng, do you choose Truth or Dare?"
Since Wu Mengmeng joined Class 13, she became the class favorite.
Because she excelled in her studies and had a gentle and kind disposition.
She patiently answered any study-related questions.
She almost became the class’s little teacher.
Though she still liked to keep her head down, acting invisible.
No one ignored her.
Everyone respected and liked her a lot.
Wu Mengmeng’s voice was still soft.
Yet everyone could clearly hear her.
Wu Mengmeng said, "I choose Truth."
This was within everyone’s expectations.
Generally, girls chose Truth in this game.
But Lin Zhi had chosen Dare without a second thought, which impressed everyone.
Guo Kaiti was quite nosy.
Especially since Wu Mengmeng appeared like a goody-two-shoes by day.
Now was a rare chance to extract some truth.
Naturally, it was an opportunity to dig up a bit of a secret.
Guo Kaiti smiled, "So tell us, is your first kiss still with you?"
Wu Mengmeng looked up, instantly frozen.
Then her face turned crimson.
At this, everyone sensed something was up.
Wu Mengmeng didn’t know how to respond, not expecting such a question from Guo Kaiti.
Though she felt relieved it was this question.
At least she wasn’t asked specifically whom she kissed.
Since she chose Truth.
Wu Mengmeng couldn’t tell a lie.
Plus, she wasn’t good at hiding it, her expression betrayed her completely.
Wu Mengmeng said, "It’s not."
Wu Mengmeng seemed shy as if recalling something.
But everyone around her burst into commotion instantly.
No one expected the girl who seemed the most well-behaved had lost her first kiss.
People started to make a fuss.
Asking, "Who was your first kiss with and when did it happen? Wow, even the top student has a story, we’re so curious."
Wu Mengmeng’s face showed a hint of evasive fear; clearly, she didn’t want to say.
Lu Yinxing intervened, "That counts as a second question already, you can’t ask, wait for next time."
Everyone begrudgingly stopped.
Yet Wu Wei, sitting next to Wu Mengmeng, looked terribly grim.
Grabbing Wu Mengmeng’s hand, he demanded, "Who did you give your first kiss to? Wu Mengmeng, you’re so young, how could you be so careless?"
Wu Wei’s expression and the chilling aura around him frightened everyone.
But it was understandable why Wu Wei was so upset.
After all, Wu Mengmeng was his sister.
At school, everyone noticed.
Though Wu Wei seemed to bully his sister.
Only he was allowed to bully her; no one else could say a thing about her.
Wu Wei earned a private nickname, "Wu the Protector."
Now hearing his sister’s first kiss was gone.
He exploded immediately.
Wondering which guy had taken advantage of her.
Wu Mengmeng looked down, glanced at Wu Wei, then turned her head away.
Her expression seemed determined not to speak.
Lu Yinxing went over and knocked Wu Wei, "What do you mean, acting like it’s okay for you to do what you want but not others, you’re the epitome of hypocrisy, how many girlfriends have you had since middle school, just mind your own business."
Wu Wei angrily snapped, "But I’ve never kissed them!"
Wu Wei’s statement brought another silence.
What?
Could it be that Wu Wei still had his first kiss?
This was something nobody would have guessed.
Knowing Wu Wei was the school’s recognized playboy.
The number of girls claiming to be his was as many as the beauties of Jinling’s courtesans.
And yet...
Even Wu Mengmeng found it surprising.
In the end, Wu Wei sulkily sat back.
His somber expression could rival the always displeased Xia Ye.
But the game continued.
Finally, the bottle pointed to Wen Quan.
Wen Quan chose Dare.
It was Xia Ye’s turn to make a request.
Everyone looked at Xia Ye.
What request would Xia Ye make?
The two of them were friends, so she probably wouldn’t make it too difficult, right?
Most importantly, everyone was really afraid Xia Ye would be uncooperative.
Because the whole night, although he sat there.
He hardly spoke or made any movements.
He wasn’t cheering anyone on, he seemed to be living in his own world.
So everyone was also worried Xia Ye wouldn’t be in the mood to speak at this moment.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ye glanced at Wen Quan.
He softly and simply said, "Dance."
Everyone was a bit surprised.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ye also had this kind of mischievous mindset.
He made Wen Quan dance in front of everyone.
This must be very interesting.
Wen Quan was quite relaxed about it.
Wen Quan said, "Sure, I’m a dance expert. What dance do you want to see?"
Someone in the crowd shouted out, "Folk dance!"
This made it even more interesting.
However, to others, this might seem like mischief.
But to Wen Quan, it was a moment for his personality to shine.
He walked to the center without a hint of stage fright.
Although he had never learned folk dance before.
He imagined the scenes from TV in his mind and started rotating his body with abandon.
He ended up pulling it off convincingly.
With a kind of youthful and carefree air, emitting a unique charm.
The people below started to keep the rhythm.
When the dance was in full swing, Wen Quan pulled Lu Yinxing up to dance along.
The two of them danced wildly in front of the bonfire, but it was incredibly joyful.
Laughter echoed throughout the valley.
At that moment, Xia Ye suddenly stood up and said, "You guys continue, I’m heading back to the tent."
In the firelight, Xia Ye’s complexion didn’t look good.
No one knew what had happened.
But Xia Ye quickly left.
After Xia Ye left, Wu Wei also got up and left directly.
Suddenly two people were gone.
The atmosphere could no longer be lively.
The time was getting late.
Mai Xiaoqi said, "Maybe we should call it a night, as we plan to get up early to see the sunrise. Let’s sleep early tonight."
Everyone agreed.
And so it dispersed.
Lu Yinxing also felt Xia Ye’s complexion didn’t look good tonight.
Although Xia Ye wasn’t sociable, he rarely spoiled the fun in public.
Lu Yinxing was somewhat worried.
Lu Yinxing also returned to the tent.
Xia Ye was already lying down fully clothed, on his side, turned away from Lu Yinxing.
Lu Yinxing entered the tent.
Lu Yinxing called, "Big brother."
But Xia Ye didn’t respond.
Lu Yinxing knew Xia Ye was in a bad mood tonight, unsure if it was because of Lin Zhi.
Lu Yinxing sighed in her heart.
People in love truly have variable moods.
Even her usually calm big brother is no exception.
Lu Yinxing was also somewhat tired today and planned to sleep early.
When Lu Yinxing lay down, she accidentally touched Xia Ye’s hand.
Lu Yinxing was startled.
Oh my, why is it so hot?
Lu Yinxing hurriedly turned Xia Ye around.
Xia Ye wasn’t asleep.
But his whole body was shaking.
Lu Yinxing felt his forehead.
Xia Ye’s forehead was also burning hot.
Xia Ye was sick. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Lu Yinxing was alarmed.
Why didn’t he say anything if he was sick?
Just now, he was still accompanying everyone, exposed to the cold wind on the mountaintop.
What was he thinking?
Lu Yinxing felt both anxious and angry.
Fortunately, Lu Yinxing had excellent medical skills.
Ordinary illnesses were nothing to her.
But there were no medicines here, not even a thermometer.
Lu Yinxing couldn’t figure out the cause, whether it was a cold, virus infection, or something else.
But with Xia Ye being so hot, the most important thing was to physically cool him down.
Lu Yinxing fetched some water from outside.
Fortunately, there were mountain springs nearby.
Then she placed a wet towel on Xia Ye’s forehead.
Xia Ye seemed to be half-asleep.
Lu Yinxing knew once at this time, he would irresistibly fall asleep.
Especially when he was sick.
Everyone else had crawled into their tents.
Only Lu Yinxing was rushing back and forth.
However, Lu Yinxing was still very worried.
Xia Ye’s condition didn’t seem like an ordinary cold.
In the middle of the night, Xia Ye got up and vomited several times.
Anyway, Lu Yinxing hadn’t slept at all.
But after some analysis, it didn’t seem like a simple fever, rather like food poisoning.
Lu Yinxing had been hospitalized due to food poisoning recently, and she was very familiar with that feeling.
Lu Yinxing eventually confirmed it.
They did eat a lot of local food that night.
But everyone ate without any issue.
Besides, Lu Yinxing had carefully distinguished the mushrooms and vegetables they picked.
She was an expert in the field, naturally wouldn’t make a mistake.
But why was it like this?
However, she couldn’t think too much about it now.
After vomiting, Xia Ye felt a lot better.
But he was still feverish.
His body was burning hot.
But he was curled up in the tent, shivering.
Lu Yinxing continually physically cooled him.
She was so tired she almost fell asleep sitting there.
But she forced herself to stay alert.
Finally, around four in the morning, Xia Ye started to recover from the fever.
At that moment, Lu Yinxing was so exhausted she couldn’t stand up.
Though feeling tired.
Lu Yinxing couldn’t sleep.
She didn’t know why, maybe she passed the sleeping hour, making it hard to fall asleep.
The others planned to get up to watch the sunrise.
But no one emerged from their tents.
Seeing herself unable to sleep, Lu Yinxing simply got up.
Then she sat on a rock.
The mountain here was quite high.
She could already see a weak light in the distance.
The sky slowly started to turn red, then gradually turned golden.
The sun slowly rose from the mountain waist, like a giant disk.
The sunrise here was remarkably different from other places.
Its majestic beauty made one’s eyes open wide.
Lu Yinxing felt no drowsiness.
Even felt like pulling everyone out of their tents to witness this rare scene.
But she didn’t do that.
She rested her cheek on her hand and watched the sunrise.
She didn’t know when, but a thin blanket was added to her shoulder.
Lu Yinxing turned and saw it was Xia Ye.
