Jiang Siyan fetched the medical kit, which also contained a mercury thermometer; after disinfecting it, he clipped it under Jiang Jiu's armpit.
"Don't move me... so sleepy."
Jiang Jiu mumbled as she turned over, but Jiang Siyan held her arm still, pulled her into his embrace, and soothed her as if comforting a child.
Five minutes later, he took out the thermometer—it was a mild fever.
Jiang Siyan got some fever-reducing medicine and helped Jiang Jiu sit up, "Be good, take the medicine then sleep."
Jiang Jiu sleepily opened her mouth, swallowed the pill, then took a sip of water, and continued to close her eyes to sleep.
Watching Jiang Jiu's sleeping face, Jiang Siyan couldn't help but pull her closer into his arms.
"Why push yourself so hard, can't you rely on me more?"
Jiang Jiu naturally did not respond to Jiang Siyan and slept soundly.
The next morning, Jiang Jiu got out of bed full of energy, and Jiang Siyan came over with the thermometer, "Take your temperature."
