Chapter 86: The heart is beating at the wrong tempo

The family doctor was on his way over.

Yu Yuehan’s condition had finally stabilized after a series of checks and medication.

‘Young Master Han, you might feel exhausted after the medicine wears off, but you will be fine after a day’s rest in bed,” the doctor said respectfully as he stood up from the bedside and took off his stethoscope.

When he heard this, Yu Yuehan lifted his gaze up lightly and glanced at Nian Xiaomu, who had shrunk to the corner of the room.

“Examine her as well.”

His voice was very soft, just like a small gust of wind that drifted past the ears.

The family doctor stood dumbfounded for a few seconds without any reaction; he suspected that he had misheard him.

Young Master had never shown concern for any woman in his life…

Now, however, he had actually instructed him to specially examine a woman—looks like he really cared for her.

A look of astonishment flashed across the doctor’s face.

“I came in late just now, so I am fine,” Nian Xiaomu explained hurriedly when she saw the doctor walking toward her.

Eventually, she gave up struggling and allowed the doctor to examine her when she saw Yu Yuehan and his knitted eyebrows.

“There is not much issue with Miss Nian’s health condition, and she will be fine after she gets enough water and rest,” the family doctor said politely. “It was fortunate that you discovered it and opened the windows for ventilation in time.”

As the doctor finished his piece, he turned around and started to pack up the medical box.

He left with the medical box when he saw that Yu Yuehan did not have further instructions for him.

The butler followed the doctor and sent him off.

“Young Master, I shall not disturb your rest then…” Nian Xiaomu wanted to take her leave as well, but before she could finish her sentence, she heard his magnetic voice.

“Are you planning to leave me alone here?”

Nian Xiaomu: “…”

What did he mean by leaving him alone?

From the way he phrased it, it was as if she wanted to discard him after she made use of him. In actual fact, however, there was nothing going on between the two of them!

She would be the one who suffered a loss if they had anything going on!

After Nian Xiaomu cursed silently in her heart, she lifted her head and saw him leaning against the bed headboard with a pale face. She felt an indescribable sense of guilt.

When she saw the wound at the corner of his lips, this feeling was especially strong…

The doctor’s inquiry suddenly flashed past her mind.

“Young Master, what happened to your lips?”

“The cat at home was not obedient, and it bit me.” Although it still sounded hoarse, his deep voice was particularly enticing.

His deep and soulful eyes stared fixedly at her when he said that sentence.

Her face turned red from holding back her thoughts; she was afraid that others would find out that she was the cat that was not obedient!

When she heard the doctor asking him if he needed a tetanus shot, she nearly couldn’t restrain herself. She wanted to dive right into the sofa and pretend not to have heard anything.

To think that he could still reply in a deadly earnest manner and say, “No need for that. This cat is different from the others.”

At that moment, she hadn’t even dared to look into the eyes of the family doctor.

It was the first time that she had wished so hard for a bottle of mute medicine on hand—so that she could poison Yu Yuehan until he was a mute!

Nian Xiaomu shook her head and refused to let her imagination run wild. She raised her head and said, “The doctor wanted you to take ample rest. I will only disturb you if I stay here.”

“Get me a cup of water,” he opened his eyes lazily and instructed.

“…” So he had disregarded what she said just like this?

Nian Xiaomu gritted her teeth. Since she could not leave, she went forward and poured him a cup of water.

When she saw the beads of perspiration that emerged from his forehead, she instinctively grabbed a piece of tissue paper and wiped them off.

“Is the room too warm? I will switch on the air conditioning for you.”

She stood at a very close distance to him.

The faint fragrance on her body constantly spilled into his nostrils.

As she stooped down to wipe the perspiration off his face, her perfect cherry lips swayed continuously before him.

Yu Yuehan knitted his eyebrows. He felt that the effects from the medicine, which had just disappeared, were starting to take effect once again.

His heart was beating at the wrong tempo.
