"Based on the young mistress's allergic symptoms, it should be pollen allergy. However, the allergic symptoms are not very severe. I've prescribed some oral medicine and ointment. She'll be fine in at most three days," the doctor explained.
"I see," Lu Luochen replied.
If he had known this, he wouldn't have taken her to the flower and bird market today. Then none of these things would have happened. He felt somewhat self - reproachful.
The family doctor placed the medicine on the table and instructed Lu Luochen on how to use it.
Lu Luochen listened very attentively. He jotted down what the doctor said one by one, and then saw them off.
Now there were only the two of them in the room. Lu Luochen sat down beside the bed. He looked at Wen Sining lying on the bed. Her lips were pale, giving a very weak impression.
"It's all my fault," Lu Luochen grabbed Wen Sining's slightly cool hand.
Wen Sining knew what he was thinking and shook her head. "It has nothing to do with you. I didn't even know I was allergic to pollen myself. I've never had such a reaction before."
She held Lu Luochen's hand back and continued, "Besides, I wanted to buy the flowers myself. Don't think too much about it, okay?" She comforted Lu Luochen.
Lu Luochen nodded. He picked up the medicine on the table with his other hand. This was an ointment. He quickly unwrapped it.
"I'll apply the medicine on you now."
Wen Sining didn't refuse. Seeing her agreement, Lu Luochen squeezed the ointment onto his hand and carefully applied it on her arms.
The ointment felt cool on her skin. Wen Sining felt less itchy. After applying it on both arms,
"Undo your clothes. I'll apply it on your back," Lu Luochen said.
Hearing this, Wen Sining felt a bit shy. Although she and Lu Luochen had been married for a long time, they hadn't had an intimate relationship. Now, it was embarrassing for her to undress in front of him.
Seeing that she didn't move, Lu Luochen immediately understood. He subtly curled his lips, reached out and tapped her head. "What are you thinking about? I'm just applying some medicine on you. I won't do anything to you."
Wen Sining blushed at his words. Then she undid her clothes and lay prone on the bed.
Lu Luochen saw the large patches of rashes on her back. His eyes were filled with undisguised distress. He carefully applied the medicine on her.
Wen Sining only felt that the places his fingers touched were a bit hot. Fortunately, Lu Luochen finished applying the medicine quickly. In order to let the medicine take better effect, he didn't let Wen Sining put on her clothes immediately after applying the medicine.
"Sit here first. I'll go and get you a glass of water. Take the medicine, and you won't feel so uncomfortable," Lu Luochen said as he put the ointment aside, picked up the cup and walked away.
Soon, he came back with a glass of water. Wen Sining tested the temperature. It wasn't hot. She took the medicine he handed her and swallowed it with a tilt of her head.
"Okay, lie down and rest for a while," Lu Luochen said.
Wen Sining didn't refuse. She fell asleep soon after lying down, while Lu Luochen stayed by her side all the time.
Soon it was mealtime. Qing Tang knocked on the door. Lu Luochen put down the book in his hand and strode towards the door. After opening it, he saw it was Qing Tang. He glanced at Wen Sining who was still sleeping soundly on the bed, then walked out of the room directly and closed the door. He was afraid that their conversation would disturb her rest.
"Uncle, it's time for dinner. Should I bring it up for you?" she asked for Lu Luochen's opinion.
"Bring it up," Lu Luochen said.
Qing Tang agreed and turned to go downstairs. Lu Luochen called her back. "I'll go and carry it," he said and walked forward.
Seeing his behavior, Qing Tang sighed that Uncle was really nice to Auntie. She had lived with Lu Luochen for so long, but it was the first time she saw him caring so much about someone. Even Old Master Lu didn't have this kind of treatment.
Lu Luochen put the food on a tray and carried it up. Just as he placed the tray on the table in the bedroom, Wen Sining opened her eyes.
"Did I wake you up?" Lu Luochen glanced at her and asked.
Wen Sining shook her head. "I've slept for so long." Maybe it was because the medicine had taken effect. She had slept very deeply this time.
"It's okay. Just sit on the bed. Don't get out," Lu Luochen said as he carried the food to her and sat down beside the bed.
Wen Sining saw that he didn't seem to hand the bowl to her. "Are you going to feed me?" There was a hint of uncertainty in her tone.
Lu Luochen let out a soft "um". It was the first time he had ever fed someone.
Wen Sining was amused by his silly look. "I can eat by myself. And I'm just allergic, not disabled. My hands are fine."
Saying that, she reached out and snatched the bowl from Lu Luochen's hand. She wasn't used to being fed by others.
Lu Luochen then handed the bowl to her and told her to eat slowly.
Wen Sining nodded. She felt that Lu Luochen was treating her like a child.
After dinner, Lu Luochen cleared the dishes and asked Qing Tang to come up and take them away.
Wen Sining picked up her phone. After turning it on, she saw there were messages in the notification bar. It had been an hour ago. She had been sleeping at that time and had ignored them.
She clicked in and found that all the messages were from Lu Xuan.
He told Wen Sining that there was a problem with the script they had been discussing. They had already reached an agreement with the producer, but now it was messed up.
Wen Sining thought for a while and replied that she would solve it.
Lu Luochen fetched a glass of water. He called Wen Sining's name, wanting her to take the medicine. But the person sitting on the bed didn't respond at all. He called her several more times, but still got no answer. She didn't even look at him. He felt completely ignored by Wen Sining and was very uncomfortable. But then he thought that her health was not good, and partly it was his fault.
Thinking this, he took the medicine over. Looking down, he found that Wen Sining was sending a message to Lu Xuan. The anger that had subsided in his heart flared up again.
"Ningning, it's time to take the medicine," Lu Luochen said impatiently.
Wen Sining looked up at him after pressing the send button. "I know."
She took the medicine and saw that Lu Luochen was still looking at her. She thought he had something to say. "What's wrong?"
"Is your phone that interesting? I called you several times and you didn't answer," Lu Luochen said with personal emotions, mostly dissatisfaction.
Only then did Wen Sining realize that she had been busy. She immediately threw her phone aside.
"I'm wrong," she knew she was in the wrong and took the initiative to admit it.
Lu Luochen didn't expect to be really angry. But seeing the name Lu Xuan, he still felt a bit uncomfortable.
