"Alright, I'm heading that way." Duan Yu answered the phone as he walked, "Brother Qin Yizhao, you didn't rest enough last night, you have to be careful on the road. If you are anxious, you can take a taxi.

"I slept for a few hours, I'm ready." Qin Yizhao said.

"No, brother Qin Yizhao, wait a moment." Duan Yu dialed another number.

Duan Yu arrived at Zhu Ruiyan's ward, and a youngster arrived not long after. Duan Yu handed over the car keys, "Xiao Li, send County Magistrate Qin to the Qing County's government compound."

"Alright, please be at ease, second young master. I promise that I will complete the mission." The youngster answered very seriously.

"Yu." Qin Yizhao also knew that between brothers, there was no need to be too polite.

"Alright, you can leave, you haven't rested enough for so many days, rest in the car, pay attention to your body. The news reports a few days ago said that you have overworked yourself to death, you have to be careful, take care of your body, and listen to my arrangements. Otherwise, I won't bother to care about your Zhu Ruiyan."

"Alright, I'll listen to you." He then looked at Zhu Ruiyan who was still sleeping, "You will leave now. Also, remember to tell her to find a gas company to repair the gas pipeline."

"Alright." Duan Yu agreed.

Qin Yizhao looked at Zhu Ruiyan again. He was reluctant to part with her, but after looking at her a few more times, he turned and left.

Zhu Ruiyan continued to sleep for a few hours, and when she saw Duan Yu in her room, he was stunned, but she could not recall what happened in the past, so she looked at Duan Yu quietly and asked, "Doctor Duan, why am I here?"

Duan Yu saw that she was staring at him and smiled. Duan Yu was wearing the protective suit for doctors at work, and smiled like a spring breeze was blowing, "You're awake? Do you want to eat? Zhu Ruiyan, you are so powerful, even though you were poisoned by the gas, you still managed to escape.

"Gas poisoning?" Zhu Ruiyan wanted to remember something, but her mind was in a mess, she couldn't remember anything at all.

"Right, let's not talk about that for now. Eat something." Duan Yu handed over a bowl of porridge that was emitting hot air.

Zhu Ruiyan still felt that her stomach was starting to turn up and there was no taste in her mouth. She took the bowl and drank a few spoonfuls before putting it down, "I don't want to eat right now."

"This bowl, you have to drink it. The cold is not over yet, I'll have to take some medicine later. First, I need something to cover my stomach." Duan Yu advised from the side.

Zhu Ruiyan had no choice but to finish the bowl of porridge as if she was drinking Chinese medicine.

"How did you find me?" Zhu Ruiyan suddenly asked.

"I didn't find you. Someone found you."

"Which one?" Zhu Ruiyan was unable to react.

"What do you think?"

"I don't know." Zhu Ruiyan thought for a long time. Unexpectedly, she looked for his phone, but didn't find it.

"Brother Qin Yizhao, he returned last night. It's just that he had something to do this morning, so he returned to the Qing County." Duan Yu said indifferently.

"Him?" Zhu Ruiyan was dumbstruck. How could it be him? However, she was sleeping too soundly later on and did not notice that Qin Yizhao had come over.

"If there's anything wrong with your Qing County, you can only return." Duan Yu explained again.

Zhu Ruiyan expressed her understanding. Now that she felt that her body was stronger, she said, "I feel better, how could I be poisoned by carbon monoxide. Could it be that I don't remember to turn off the gas valve?"

"Have the management check out the gas company's people. This was Brother Qin Yizhao's order before he left."

"Uh, okay." This person stayed here with her for half the night. Zhu Ruiyan had been trying hard to recall this scene in her heart.

In the afternoon, Zhu Ruiyan had hung up all the medicines for the cold before returning home. She went to look for properties, and the gas company quickly came to check, finally saying that there were no problems. Only then did Zhu Ruiyan return home, and saw that all the windows in the house were open, it must have been Qin Yizhao who opened it.

Did he come back yesterday for her?

He closed all the windows and returned to his room, seeing that there were many missed calls, mainly from Qin Yizhao and Ye Zhijie. Qin Yizhao even sent a message to him, "When you return home, call me."

Zhu Ruiyan replied with a text message, "I'm home, I'm fine."

Zhu Ruiyan replied with a text message, then placed the phone to the side. Deep in her heart, she was also filled with anticipation, she felt that if Qin Yizhao was in a meeting or had some other important matters, then she wouldn't need to disturb him, and just send him a text message.

Some time had passed, and Qin Yizhao did not reply nor call him. It was probably because he was busy with some important matters, so Zhu Ruiyan called back. Very quickly, Ye Zhijie's fiery voice came out, "Zhu Ruiyan, why aren't you answering the phone? I'll go knock on the door, and you're not opening the door for me, what's wrong?"

"Ye Zhijie, I'm fine. I've already went for an injection today, so there's no need for an injection tomorrow. I just need to get some medicine and I'll be fine."

"Then you went there yourself?"

Zhu Ruiyan didn't know what to say, "You're busy too, I can't let you keep worrying about me."

Ye Zhijie could not stand Zhu Ruiyan trying to differentiate the two of them, "Zhu Ruiyan, you are always so stubborn, I have always been so worried for you, but you have never taken me seriously."

"Master Ye, don't be depressed. I'm a bit tired. I want to sleep for a while."

"Fine, I've applied for three days leave. You can come back to the office at that time. The director has already approved it. I'll help you pick up the delivery and bring it to your house."

"This is too troublesome." Zhu Ruiyan shouted.

"This is it for now. You have to eat the medicine on time." Ye Zhijie muttered a few more sentences before retracting.

Just as Zhu Ruiyan placed his phone to the side, Qin Yizhao received a call. Zhu Ruiyan's heart tensed up, and immediately picked up his phone to answer the call.

"Who are you talking to? It's been so long." Qin Yizhao said impatiently.

"That colleague, Ye Zhijie." Zhu Ruiyan did not hide from him.

"How is he now?" Qin Yizhao asked again.

"He's recovered." Zhu Ruiyan replied in a low voice.

Then, the other party fell silent. Zhu Ruiyan could not hear any emotion in Qin Yizhao's voice, and she asked: "Zhao, were you here last night?"

"Yeah." Qin Yizhao replied indifferently, "I have a lot of things that I need to take care of, so don't make me worry."

Zhu Ruiyan was obedient, "En."

"Has the gas company gone to overhaul it?"

"I've been here before."

"Alright, hang up." Qin Yizhao said and pressed it.

Zhu Ruiyan looked at her phone dumbly. The phone had already ended and she didn't know what she was feeling from the bottom of her heart. She went to the bathroom. The wound in her hand had healed, her period had passed, and after she had showered, she lay quietly on the bed to rest. After that, she just stood there by herself. It was really boring, so she came up with an idea.

She got up, packed her things, prepared her cold medicine, put on some extra clothes, and went to the city station.

If Qin Yizhao hadn't looked at her last night, she probably wouldn't have made such a decision.

Zhu Ruiyan rode on the bus to Qing County, first she went to buy some vegetables and the like before entering Qin Yizhao's residence. This time, she was stopped by the guard, and only after Zhu Ruiyan brought her pass did the guard let her in.

The floor and the sofa were filled with clothes that had been changed. The dust was also very thick, and with one glance, Zhu Ruiyan could tell that no one had cleaned up the room before. She just felt that men did not know how to live.

Zhu Ruiyan put on the rubber gloves and helped Qin Yizhao tidy up the room. After washing his clothes and drying them, he dragged the floor a bit, in the end, he was still sick. After working so hard, his body was still tired and he rested on the sofa for a while, but after tidying up, the room looked more comfortable. After that, he stood up and went to Qin Yizhao's room to tidy up. The blanket was rolled up and the pillow was placed unsteadily on top of the bed.

He then changed the bedding, filled up the washing machine, and then went to the kitchen to cook a few dishes.

It was already late, but Qin Yizhao still hadn't returned home. Zhu Ruiyan was really too tired, so she leaned on the sofa and slowly fell asleep.

The winter night was extremely cold. Qin Yizhao had to busy himself for a long while before preparing to return and rest. He walked to the bottom of the dormitory, raised his eyes to look at his room, and discovered that there was actually light in his room.

He wanted to immediately fly upstairs. He wished that it was Zhu Ruiyan very much, but was afraid of getting disappointed at the same time. But only Zhu Ruiyan had the key to his house.

Zhu Ruiyan opened her dormitory's door and the fragrance of the food assaulted her senses. Zhu Ruiyan was holed up in the corner with her eyes closed, as if she had heard the sound of his door opening, and immediately opened her eyes, which was a little hazy. It seemed that she had fallen asleep just now, and looked at her with a bit of shyness in her eyes.

The suit that Qin Yizhao was wearing was very close-fitting. Standing at the door, Zhu Ruiyan felt that this person was very tall.

He just stood there at the door, motionless and silent, staring at Zhu Ruiyan as if everything in front of him was an illusion.

Zhu Ruiyan didn't know what he meant, why did he have to stare at her. She was a little nervous, and neither of them said a thing, but Zhu Ruiyan could not help but ask, "You don't want me to come here?"

Qin Yizhao paused, strode over, and embraced her.

"No, Zhao, I still have a cold, so I can easily pass it on to you." Zhu Ruiyan immediately shouted, and used her hand to cover Qin Yizhao's mouth.

Qin Yizhao pulled her hand away, "Don't worry, my resistance is strong, I won't be infected that easily."

He continued to kiss her. This woman had come straight over without telling him beforehand. Her happiness had come so suddenly that he was in a trance.

The two of them kissed until their breath became unsteady. Only then did this coquettish kiss end.

"Zhao." Zhu Ruiyan muttered, and used both hands to embrace Qin Yizhao's tall body.

Qin Yizhao came in from the outside and even though he still had the aura of the cold wind on him, Zhu Ruiyan didn't mind and continued to hug him with all his might.

"Why are you here?" Qin Yizhao's low and hoarse voice sounded beside Zhu Ruiyan's ears.

"A few days sick leave." Zhu Ruiyan replied.

"So what if it's fake?"

"Yeah." Actually, she missed him a lot and wanted to see him, but she was too embarrassed to say it out loud. She just couldn't say it out loud, so she directly ran straight to the Qing County to do it.

"How many days have you been sick?"

"It's been a long time, I'm almost done. I just need to take some medicine and everything will be fine." Zhu Ruiyan answered in detail.

"You've been carrying it all by yourself?"

"My colleague sent me to the hospital," Zhu Ruiyan replied.
