As if someone in the sky had forgotten to turn off the switch, another round of snow started falling. In the rescue zone, new supplies were delivered, and new volunteers rushed to the scene to help. However, in this disorderly place, there seemed to be a person who had become their greatest hope, and that person was Ling Mofeng.
Under such difficult conditions, Mr. Vice President accompanied them to fight against the calamities of nature. This kind of feeling, no matter how cold the wind and snow were, would still be warm.
With the combined efforts of both the military and the civilian, there was only one disaster area left. There were no direct roads there, and the traffic was blocked. Only airplanes could be used to transport manpower and material resources to a.s.sist the disaster area.
Ling Mofeng had an emergency meeting to discuss the rescue strategy and immediately sent people to carry it out.
After Lan Xianxian made a ruckus over her young mistress" temper, she also silently went to find something to do. She actually wanted to leave this place, as she couldn"t stand the evil weather and couldn"t stand the dirty work here. It seemed like she wouldn"t be able to bathe tonight.
Her original plan was to catch a cold, then let Ling Mofeng take pity on her, and let her become a citizen under his care, enjoying his tender care.
However, it was clear that she had underestimated her physical fitness. Even until the next day, she was still lively and showed no signs of catching a cold. On the other hand, Lan Yanxi"s physique was much worse and she had a high fever the next morning.
Lan Yanxi realized that something was wrong with her body, but she did not put it to heart. She only thought that she was dizzy and weak due to not having a good rest, so she stubbornly persisted.
Suddenly, Cheng Yuan, who was sitting beside her, turned her head to look at her and noticed that her face was unusually red. She quickly asked, "Yanxi, are you alright? Your face is already red from the cold?"
Lan Yanxi shook her head. "I"m fine!"
"Do you want to take a rest? Another group of people came just now, and we have enough manpower. Don"t try to show off, hurry up and go sit down to sleep!" Cheng Yuan insisted and reached out to help her.
"Alright!" When Lan Yanxi heard that she had enough men, she finally stopped insisting. Putting her things aside, she fell to the side in a daze the moment she stood up.
"Yanxi!" Upon seeing it, Cheng Yuan"s face turned pale with fright. She hastily stretched out her hands to help her steady herself.
"My legs are numb!" Lan Yanxi couldn"t help but laugh bitterly.
Cheng Yuan, on the other hand, felt that it wasn"t just a matter of the numbness in her leg. She quickly pressed her hand against Lan Yanxi"s forehead, immediately becoming alarmed. "Yanxi, you"re burning up!"
"Is there? "I"m probably a bit busy!" Lan Yanxi stretched out her hand as well, but could not feel anything.
"Come, I will bring you to see mister!" Cheng Yuan was extremely anxious. She didn"t care about anything else as she held her hand and walked away.
Only then did Lan Yanxi realize that she had caught a cold. It turned out that she was not busy, but sick.
Lan Xianxian had been paying attention to Lan Yanxi"s movements. When she saw Cheng Yuan holding her hand and walking towards Ling Mofeng"s office, her eyes turned red from jealousy.
After Cheng Yuan knocked on the door, she pushed Lan Yanxi into the room and said to Ling Mofeng anxiously, "Sir, she"s having a fever. I"ll go get the medicine to take care of her!"
"Hey, Cheng Yuan, I ??" Lan Yanxi wanted to say something, but she saw that the door behind her was tightly shut by Cheng Yuan.
The next second, she was gently pulled into his arms by the man. Ling Mofeng pressed his forehead against hers and felt the abnormally hot sensation. He couldn"t help but exclaim, "You should pay more attention. You really make me worry!"
Lan Yanxi didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. "I didn"t do anything. I"ve already worn enough clothes. I don"t know why I caught a cold either."
Ling Mofeng sighed softly. He reached out his hand to wrap her two cold hands tightly in his palm and gently rubbed them for her.
The man"s palm was warm and dry, and Lan Yanxi couldn"t help but fall in love with him.
"Yanxi, I"ll be going back the day after tomorrow. Follow me. I"ll be making the decision!" Ling Mofeng didn"t wait for her to reply and made the decision for her.
Lan Yanxi nodded, "Alright, I"ll follow you wherever you are!"
Ling Mofeng"s heart ached as he looked at her cold and beautiful face. Once again, he reached out to hug her tightly.
Lan Yanxi felt dizzy as she leaned against his chest, as if she had some sort of support, making her feel drowsy.
At this moment, Cheng Yuan knocked on the door with medicine in her hand. "There are antipyretic drugs and cold medicine. Sir, please let Yanxi take them as soon as possible. Don"t come back to help!"
"I"ll be troubling you, Cheng Yuan!" Ling Mofeng received it gratefully.
Lan Yanxi also thanked him. Only then did Cheng Yuan turn around and leave, no longer bothering the two of them.
"Sit here, I"ll get you some hot water and some pills!" Ling Mofeng helped her to a chair and sat on the side.
Lan Yanxi raised her gaze to the tall figure of the man as she felt an indescribable happiness in her heart. It was as though she could feel relieved as long as he was here.
Ling Mofeng poured a gla.s.s of water, but found that the temperature of the water was too high.
He turned his head and saw the woman staring at him without blinking. Her eyes were as clear as water and were filled with love. The man felt embarra.s.sed and his handsome face couldn"t help but blush a little.
He turned his back again and continued to blow hot water for her.
"Turn around and let me take a look!" Lan Yanxi didn"t know which part of her mind was in the wrong. She was still in the mood to tease him when she became so sick.
Ling Mofeng"s back tensed up and he couldn"t help but listen to her words. He turned around and saw the girl"s playful little face, full of smiles.
"The water"s not hot anymore, take the medicine!" Ling Mofeng pretended to be serious as he held the water and walked in front of her. He squatted down and put the medicine on her palm as if he was coaxing a child: "Listen to me!"
"What if he doesn"t listen?" Lan Yanxi blinked her eyes, she was very mischievous.
"If you don"t listen, I"ll let you have an injection!" Ling Mofeng had a way to treat her.
"No! Even if I die, I won"t be injected with needles!" Lan Yanxi quickly threw the medicine into her mouth and immediately drank the water. She choked on the water until she lowered her head and coughed twice.
"Slow down, no injections!" Ling Mofeng couldn"t help but chuckle when he saw how scared she was. He reached out his hand to touch her shoulder to comfort her and patted her lightly.
Lan Yanxi seemed to have calmed down as she leaned weakly against the chair. Looking at the man"s handsome face that was almost within reach, she couldn"t help but stretch out her finger and gently touch his face.
Ling Mofeng felt as if he had been electrocuted and his blood started to flow faster. He quickly stood up and said in a soft voice, "Yanxi, you just stay here. Don"t go out!"
"Aren"t you afraid that others will misunderstand our relations.h.i.+p?" Lan Yanxi couldn"t help but ask with a smile.
"No, no matter what you say, you are still my fiancee. When I return from my country visit, we will be engaged. In the future, no matter how others view our relations.h.i.+p, we will be a community. Whether it is benefits or family, we will not be afraid of the eyes of others!" Hearing her ask that, Ling Mofeng felt like he was hurt from an old injury. He blamed himself and said angrily.
Lan Yanxi nodded happily. "Alright, I"ve always been looking forward to this kind of life!"
"En, stop talking. Lie down on my bed and sleep for a while!" Ling Mofeng reached over to help her, but Lan Yanxi was too lazy to leave. The man didn"t say anything as he carried her directly to the bed he had temporarily slept on and gently put her down.
"Take off your jacket. It"ll warm you by covering yourself with a blanket!" Ling Mofeng said softly.
Lan Yanxi, on the other hand, listened obediently. After taking off her jacket, she wore a beige turtleneck sweater, and Lan Yanxi tore off her tied ponytail, causing her long black hair to fall down. Even though she was wearing so many clothes, she still looked thin and weak, causing the man"s heart to ache.
Lan Yanxi lay down on the bed and looked unblinkingly at the man.
Ling Mofeng didn"t leave immediately after tucking her in. Instead, he put one hand on the bed and reached out with the other to wipe her messy hair.
He was looking at her affectionately. In this remote mountain area, in this cold and snowy day, his heart was actually unspeakably warm.
Ling Mofeng still couldn"t control himself. He bent down, kissed her on the forehead, and patted her little face: "Alright, go to sleep!"
Lan Yanxi nodded and fell into a deep sleep.
After Ling Mofeng took care of some things, he suddenly remembered that she had just taken her medicine and quickly walked over. He reached out his hand to touch her neck and sure enough, he was sweating a lot.
She was afraid that her back was covered in sweat. She had to change her clothes quickly, otherwise, she would get sick again.
