I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

Chapter 403 If one day you can’t find me, or I become less like myself...

This time, Wei Lan finally saw his stubborn temper.

　　Persuade to no avail, Wei Lan's eyes fell on the bucket filled with water nearby. The gourd and ladle were floating in the bucket.

“Okay, if you want to lose your temper like this, then I’ll accompany you!”

After saying that, he hurried to the bucket, reached out and scooped up a ladle of water and poured it down from his head.

She is afraid of the cold, and her hands and feet get cold when winter comes. It takes a long time for the quilt to warm up when she sleeps at night. Gu Chao's body is hot, so she especially likes to get into Gu Chao's quilt.

The well water was biting and cold, sliding along the collar and into the clothes, like ice knives. Wei Lan shivered from the cold, a blush appeared at the end of his eyes, and his pink lips turned white for a moment.

"What are you doing!" Gu Chao's scalp exploded. How could he dare to continue sulking? He snatched the gourd gourd from Wei Lan's hand and threw it away. He picked Wei Lan up by the waist and ran towards the house.

Wei Lan twitched and couldn't help but whimper softly. Tears were pouring out. She was so cold that she was knocking her upper and lower teeth, and her whole body was shaking.

"Grandma! Grandma, please heat up some hot water! Grandma!" Gu Chao's voice rose and he shouted in a panic. He pulled the quilt with his big hands and covered Wei Lan tightly, then hugged Wei Lan and sat next to the stove.

Seeing that Grandma Gu was motionless, Gu Chaocuo hugged Wei Lan tightly, with beads of sweat on his forehead, "Grandma, my daughter has been soaked in cold water, hurry up..."

Although Grandma Gu was anxious, she choked in her heart and refused to come out. When Gu Chao said that Wei Lan had been soaked in cold water, Grandma Gu couldn't sit still anymore and ran to the kitchen with her little feet wet, for fear of wasting some time.

"Ignorant, ignorant! All of them, no one is worried!"

There was a beating and beating in the kitchen, but Gu Chao ignored it. Wei Lan was shaking so hard in his arms that he started to tremble too.

 “Is it cold? Is it still cold?”

Wei Lan's face was pale and pale, and the tiny blood vessels were very obvious like intricate spider webs.

Gu Chao's Adam's apple rolled, shaking his hands to stir up the fire in the stove, holding Wei Lan closer to the edge of the stove.

The fire burned a hole on the back of the little blue flower. Wei Lan was still shivering, her teeth chattering and making a sound. She was really frozen.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault, it's all my fault!" Gu Chao pressed his face against Wei Lan's, "I won't, and I won't do it again, nanny, nanny..."

Gu Chao leaned close to Wei Lan's ear, his voice was hesitant and he called her name over and over again.

Wei Lan felt as if she had been greatly wronged, her lips quickly moved downwards, and she made two "wuwu" sounds. Her pair of peach blossom eyes were filled with water mist, and her hot tears were like sharp weapons, falling in large drops.

　　It fell on Gu Chao's chest and on the tip of his heart.

 Distress replaces feeling helpless.

 "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...I'm not angry at you, I just, I just..."

Gu Chao's eyes were bloodshot, his voice was choked and suppressed, and the vicious energy in his body surged up and down.

 Gu Chao felt extremely depressed. When they were at the creek, Li Xu's approach and teasing towards Wei Lan made him feel that his anger had reached its peak. God knows how he could endure it.

He is not angry with Wei Lan anymore, he is just angry that he has no ability. If he had the ability, he could get rid of the label of rich peasant. That would be a different situation.

 He can protect Wei Lan behind him openly and declare to the outside world that she is his.

 Instead of like now, Wei Lan stood up and spoke for him.

Of course, when Wei Lan told the public that he was her partner, Gu Chao was happy at that moment, but what followed was worry.

What should he do if the sounds that stabbed him were transferred to Wei Lan? What should he do to prevent Wei Lan from being hurt?

For the first time, Gu Chao felt powerless.

He wanted to pamper and protect Wei Lan, but when he thought about what was about to happen, his mind was tense and there was no way he could do it.

Gu Chao couldn't imagine that his heart was so depressed that he could only use this extreme method to relieve the pain in his heart with his body.

“Nanny, don’t blame me.” Gu Chao murmured, his cheek delicately pressed against Wei Lan’s neck.

Wei Lan twitched and twisted her neck restlessly. There was a cold sensation on her neck, as if some liquid was flowing down.

The world suddenly became quiet.

 Gu Chao…

 Did you cry?

Wei Lan, who had been feeling extremely cold, suddenly stopped shivering.

Wei Lan couldn't hear anything from the outside world, only Gu Chao's slightly heavy breathing.

"I don't blame you..." Wei Lan took out her arm from the quilt and hugged Gu Chao tightly, trying to give him more comfort, "But please don't do this again, okay?"

 “Is there anything we can communicate with? I’m afraid of you being like this...”

Problems can be solved if they can be spoken out. What Wei Lan is afraid of is that Gu Chao refuses to speak up.

 “I understand you, I know yours.”

 “No matter what, I will be with you.”

 “Anything, we can solve it together…”

 “Brother Chao, do you believe me?”

 “Just trust me, okay?”

"trust me."

 “Yeah.” Gu Chao nodded heavily with a nasal voice.

In the room, two young men put their foreheads against each other, warming each other.

Grandma Gu looked against the wall of the door, her darkened lips trembling, and tears welling up in her muddy old eyes.

 Her Chao Geer has really found someone who can sympathize with him.

 Good thing, this is a good thing!

Grandma Gu wiped her tears hastily and walked back to the kitchen. After calming down her mood, she babbled: "Brother Chao, the hot water is ready. You can move the bathtub in, don't let girl Lan freeze..."

 It was as if she was not aware of the scene that happened in the room just now.

   *

After taking a bath, Wei Lan's small face showed a light pink color, and she shrank back into the quilt dizzily. There was only a small bulge in the middle of the huge quilt.

 Gu Chao poured the hot water. He had already taken a shower and put on clean clothes.

He was worried that Wei Lan would catch a cold. All afternoon, Gu Chao stayed in Wei Lan's room reading. From time to time, he would touch Wei Lan's forehead to check the situation.

It was just dark in the evening and Gu Chaogang turned on the light. Wei Lan moved, not quite used to the dazzling light, and covered her eyes with her small hands.

"Um...Chao, Brother Chao..." Wei Lan's face was as red as a delicate blooming red plum, but her voice was intermittent and extremely fragile.

"I'm here, are you thirsty?" Gu Chao sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hands to tuck the corner of the quilt. The fluffy quilt was pressed down, and Wei Lan's red face was exposed.

The pink lips are chapped and turned white, and the fine sweat on the forehead is stuck to the hair. The black hair makes the small face look as white as snow.

Gu Chaojian frowned slightly and put his big hand on Wei Lan's forehead.

 So hot!

Gu Chao retracted his hand, stood up and walked out.

There was resistance from the corner of his clothes, and Wei Lan's hand was holding the corner of his clothes.

Gu Chao sat back on the bed again, held Wei Lan's hand and put it back under the quilt, his voice hoarse and worried: "You have a fever, I'll call grandma."

"I'm fine." Wei Lan half-squinted her eyes and murmured in a low voice.

The hand in the quilt grabbed Gu Chao's hand and refused to let go, "Brother Chao, I had a dream..." "Huh?"

 Gu Chao asked in single syllables, and put his big hand on her forehead. His mind was racing, thinking that when Wei Lan finished speaking, he would go find his grandma.

There is no medicine at home. If grandma cannot see it, he can go to the town before it gets completely dark.

Wei Lan raised her lips slightly, raising a fragile and quiet smile. Her consciousness was blurred and she couldn't distinguish between dreams and dreams. "Do you believe that the people in the story will come back to life?"

Gu Chaoling coaxed, "How did the people in the story come back to life?"

“You and Youlan will really come back to life. I saw it. You are all real.”

Gu Chaowei was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face gradually faded away.

After a long silence, he held Wei Lan's hand tightly and said, "Don't say stupid things."

Wei Lan smiled unconsciously and asked: "If one day you can't find me, or I become less like myself..."

 “You are confused by your sleep.”

Wei Lan's words were completely unfounded, but Gu Chao seemed to be afraid of something and interrupted Wei Lan anxiously, not wanting her to continue speaking.

"Well..." Wei Lan groaned, her eyes closed tightly, her breathing a little heavy, and her dark eyebrows on her pale face were very eye-catching, and she was frowning tightly because of discomfort.

As if to confirm Gu Chao's words, Wei Lan did not speak.

Unable to delay it any longer, Gu Chao went out to find Grandma Gu.

Grandma Gu put her hand on Wei Lan's forehead, then sat on the edge of the bed and shouted a few times.

Wei Lan closed her eyes and frowned as if she was haunted by a nightmare, showing no intention of responding.

Gu Chao's heart sank with worry, and his eyes moved from Wei Lan's bright red face to Grandma Gu, "Grandma, how is my daughter? If it's not good, I'll go to the health center to buy medicine now!"

“It’s snowing so much outside, the health center has long been closed.” Grandma Gu shook her head and took a pulse from Wei Lan’s wrist.

"It's not a big problem, but you need to have a good rest..." Putting Wei Lan's hands back into the quilt, Grandma Gu stood up and walked out, "You get a basin of cold water, wet a towel and apply it on her, and I'll make a pot of **** soup. You drink a bowl later, and then feed Lan girl another bowl."

Gu Chao nodded hurriedly and stood up to fetch water. Wei Lan grabbed the corner of his clothes again.

 Her little palm-sized face was flushed, and her pair of peach blossom eyes were watery, as if she could shed tears at any time. She was pitiful and helpless.

 “Don’t go to town...Brother Chao, stay with me.”

Wei Lan was vaguely conscious. She heard Granny Gu's words intermittently just now and thought that Gu Chao was going to the county at this time.

"I'm not leaving. I'll come back with a basin of water..." Gu Chao comforted her patiently, brushing the sweaty hair from the little girl's forehead, "Are you thirsty? Can I get you a glass of water?"

"Hmm..." Wei Lan pursed her lips and asked delicately, "I want something sweet."

Gu Chao nodded hoarsely, "Okay, let's make some sugar water."

As the sound of footsteps faded away, Wei Lan closed her eyes. Her head was dizzy and her whole body was weak, but she felt a little uneasy.

She...she didn't say anything just now, right?

 Wei Lan is not sure.

I still want to think deeper, my thoughts are chaotic, and my head is getting further and further away.

Wei Lan’s thin eyebrows wrinkled and then relaxed, her breathing suddenly became heavy, and she fell into sleep again.

 The cold compress with a wet towel was not very effective. After that, I couldn’t feed the **** soup that Grandma Gu had cooked. The situation was very bad.

Gu Chaojian frowned, looked away from Wei Lan's forehead, and turned to Grandma Gu, "Grandma."

“Go, be careful on the road.” Grandma Gu sighed and waved her hand.

Gu Chao nodded and gently rubbed his big palm twice on Wei Lan's flushed face.

Gu Chao stood up and strode out quickly.

　　I left home at around six o'clock, and when I came back it was already ten o'clock at night. Grandma Gu was worried and stayed in Wei Lan's room before she fell asleep.

Gu Chao parked his bicycle toward the main room with his trousers covered in mud. Grandma Gu finally felt relieved after seeing him.

“What took it so long? Have you bought the medicine? Girl Lan’s condition is not good, her forehead is hot..."

"The health center in the town was closed, so I went to the county." Gu Chao brushed back his hair, which was stained by sweat and snow, revealing a smooth and straight forehead and a pair of eyes with heavy cast iron eyes.

 He poured hot water and went to Wei Lan's room, "Grandma, what's going on with Nannan?"

 The hot water is very hot, please let it go for a while.

 Taking advantage of the time, Gu Chao took stock of Wei Lan's situation.

The little girl's face was sallow, her lips were chapped and slightly parted, and she was panting uncomfortably. Her brows had been furrowed since he left the house and they haven't loosened up yet.

Just now, Grandma Gu dipped a towel in water, but that could only moisten Wei Lan's lips.

 The situation is special right now, no more than usual. If you don’t drink more water, you won’t be able to survive.

Grandma Gu’s face was full of worry: “I can’t feed the water, so it’s impossible to continue like this.”

"It's getting late. You should go back to your house and rest. I'll just watch from behind." Gu Chao found a clean enamel jar and came back to pour boiling water and blow on it while pouring.

"What do you know? What if I don't keep an eye on you?" Grandma Gu refused. She couldn't help but sigh when she thought of the cause of the incident. "Tell me, you, who is usually a very steady person, why did you become so stubborn at this time?" Son?"

"She is a girl. What if such a cold weather gets the root of the disease? You are going to the capital city in a few days. If the old comrades of the Wei family hear this, how can this happen?"

 The more he talked, the more Granny Gu hated the fact that iron could not become steel.

 Gu Chao looked gloomy and worried about Wei Lan. He couldn't listen to what Grandma Gu said. "This won't happen again. Grandma, you go back and rest. I'll call you if anything happens."

Grandma Gu saw that he was about to get stronger again, so she simply said nothing more, "Then you should be more careful and give her more water. If she couldn't feed her, she would use a towel to moisten her lips with water."

"Um."

Grandma Gu sighed and returned to the front room.

The room was quiet except for Wei Lan's uncomfortable breathing.

The hot water was just right. Gu Chao lifted Wei Lan up and hugged him tightly. He took a big mouthful of hot water and pressed it against Wei Lan's lips.

This was repeated several times until the water in the enamel tank was exhausted. Gu Chao hurriedly took down the bowl, wrapped Wei Lan in a quilt and hugged her tightly.

His chin was pressed against the top of Wei Lan's hair while he was sleeping, and his voice was hoarse and self-reproaching, "I'm sorry..."

 Before others could say anything offensive, he put her in trouble first.

Gu Chao took a deep breath. Wei Lan looked so fragile and uncomfortable, and he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

Sighing softly, he put Wei Lan back on the bed and covered him with the quilt. Gu Chao hurriedly washed up, changed into clean clothes, and brought the quilt from his room over.

Afraid that Wei Lan would be dazzled when he woke up, he turned on the electric lamp, lit the kerosene lamp and placed it on the corner of the table. He put up a quilt and sat next to Wei Lan.

Gu Chao didn't dare to really sleep. While thinking about things, he took care of Wei Lan. After many twists and turns, he fed him water twice, and Wei Lan's condition finally improved.

When he was feeding water for the third time, the sound of a rooster crowing could be heard outside the window. Gu Chao took a sip of water, and as soon as he put it on Wei Lan's lips, he met a pair of dark eyes.
