Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 1017 The Reserved Academic Genius vs. the Sweet Girl (9)

"Brother Yi, I'm going home now!" Shen Shuyi left Xiao Yi's house with an umbrella.

Xiao Yi watched her retreating figure, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.

He raised his hand to brush the hair from his forehead back, then strode home.

Xiao Yi didn't rush to take a hot shower, but instead started cooking rice. For some reason, he felt a little uneasy.

The thought of driving Shen Shuyi to and from get out of class starting tomorrow filled me with excitement.

The next day, Shen Shuyi ate breakfast and originally planned to go to Xiao Yi's house to wait for him, but she didn't expect to see the boy standing outside the yard as soon as she opened the door.

Xiao Yi held the handlebars with one hand, his clean and neat blue and white school uniform making him look tall and slender.

The warm morning light spilled down, gently covering his sharply defined profile, gilding his eyelashes with a layer of fine gold, highlighting his high nose bridge and clean, sharp jawline.

The young man had handsome features and exuded a clean, refreshing aura, like the morning breeze.

Shen Shuyi walked out and called out with a smile, "Brother Yi~ Good morning."

"Good morning, come on up." Xiao Yi made way for him.

Shen Shuyi sat up straight and said, "Okay!"

As the morning breeze blew, Shen Shuyi noticed that something was wrong with Xiao Yi. "Brother Yi, why are your ears so red?"

"Her face seems a little red too."

"nothing."

Shen Shuyi frowned. "Your voice sounds a little hoarse. Did you catch a cold from being caught in the rain yesterday?"

"It shouldn't be. I took my temperature this morning and it wasn't high."

"That's good." Shen Shuyi gently grasped the school uniform around his waist. "You must have told me if you weren't feeling well, I'll go to the hospital with you!"

"Ah."

Xiao Yi rode his bicycle for a short while and then headed towards the campus along the tree-lined path.

Students came and went along the way, and their eyes inevitably fell on the two of them.

The boy was tall and straight, his school uniform making him look cool and handsome, while the girl had gentle eyes and sat quietly in the back seat. They were a perfect match.

Whispers rose and fell among the crowd as many people secretly observed and speculated about the relationship between the two, wondering if they were secretly dating.

Xiao Yi noticed the stares and thought Shen Shuyi would let go to avoid suspicion, but she didn't move at all.

I don't know if it's because they're too open and fearless, or...
Xiao Yi didn't think much of it; he felt a slight headache.

I felt a little unwell after taking a shower and cooking dinner yesterday.

After finishing my homework at night, I tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep, and I felt even more uncomfortable in the morning.

Shen Shuyi was very attentive in class, and the teacher was very satisfied with her. The teacher originally thought that she was a rich girl who came to experience life, and that as long as she didn't make a fuss or disrupt the classroom discipline, it would be fine. However, the teacher did not expect her to be so attentive in class, and her grades improved rapidly.

Actually, Shen Shuyi was a little distracted in class; she noticed that Xiao Yi was not in good spirits.

The boy, who never rested on his desk before, started lying down during breaks.

Shen Shuyi asked with some concern, "Xiao Yi, are you feeling unwell?"

Xiao Yi looked up. "I feel a little dizzy."

Shen Shu noticed that his face was unusually red, so she subconsciously reached out and touched Xiao Yi's forehead.

"Oh dear, you're so hot! You must have a fever. I'll go ask for a sick day for you right now!"

"It's not a big problem, I'll go to the infirmary after class." Xiao Yi's voice was hoarse.

Shen Shuyi frowned, her fair face full of worry.

"No way, if you get brain damage from the fever, who will tutor me?"

Without saying another word, she quickly ran towards the teacher's office.

A short while later, she ran back, and at this time, the surrounding classmates also noticed Xiao Yi's situation.

Shen Shuyi said to the class monitor, "Class monitor, Xiao Yi has a fever. I'm taking him to the hospital to get checked out. Could you please send us a copy of the homework?"

"No problem, be careful, everyone. Or should I take leave and go with you to see Xiao Yi off?" Class monitor Tan Yingxu adjusted his glasses.

Xiao Yi immediately stood up straight, without needing Shen Shuyi's help. "I can walk to the school gate and take the bus, no problem." "Alright then." Tan Yingxu looked at Shen Shuyi. "Shen, you can call me if you need anything."

"Okay, let's go." Shen Shuyi followed Xiao Yi out the door.

As soon as they stepped out of the classroom, Shen Shuyi quickly helped Xiao Yi up and whispered, "Brother Yi, let me help you. I'm afraid you'll faint."

Xiao Yi felt hot all over, but when Shen Shuyi's hand came over to support him, the cool feeling was very comfortable.

The two walked out of the school gate, and Shen Shuyi hailed a taxi.

Once seated in the car, Xiao Yi leaned back and casually asked, "Do you have the class monitor's phone number?"

"Yes, the class monitor asked me to add him on WeChat. He said that all the students in the class have added him on WeChat, and when we graduate, they will make a yearbook with his address, phone number, and photos."

Xiao Yi frowned slightly, "It's only the first semester, so even if we're going to make a yearbook, it'll be next semester."

Shen Shuyi was worried about his health, and since he was speaking in a low voice, she couldn't hear what Xiao Yi was saying at all when a car horn blared outside.

"Brother Yi, what did you just say?"

"It's nothing." Xiao Yi thought for a moment and said, "Don't rush about the tutoring. I've always been doing it for you, and it's been quite systematic. Don't let the pace be interrupted."

Shen Shuyi nodded, "I think so too. Last Friday, the class monitor said he could help me with physics, but I said you were already helping me and I refused."

Xiao Yi frowned even more deeply. He just wanted to give them a heads-up, but he didn't expect that they were already planning something.

Everyone here is smart. Xiao Yi knows Tan Yingxu's character well. He would never fawn over a classmate without ulterior motives.

He also discovered Tan Yingxu secretly looking at Shen Shuyi several times. All of this suggests that Tan Yingxu has fallen for Shen Shuyi and wants to pursue her.

Xiao Yi pinched the bridge of his nose, his head aching more and more the more he thought about it.

Shen Shuyi is the beloved granddaughter of the Xiang family elders, and he has received so much kindness and care from them. It is his duty to watch over Shen Shuyi, to prevent her from being deceived by men, and even more so, to prevent her from falling in love too early.

After thinking it through, he closed his eyes.

"Brother Yi, we've arrived at the hospital. Are you feeling unwell? Let me help you out of the car." Shen Shuyi reached out and hugged Xiao Yi's arm.

Xiao Yi was helped out of the car, feeling dizzy and lightheaded. He hadn't been sick in a long time.

This cold and fever struck like a landslide, leaving me feeling utterly weak.

Shen Shuyi ran around until Xiao Yi sat down to receive the IV drip, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief when she returned with the medicine.

"Okay, now that our IV drip is finished, we can go home!"

When Xiao Yi saw her flushed face, his heart melted.

This reminded him of his grandparents, and his eyes welled up with tears.

"Shuyi, thank you."

Shen Shuyi's eyes lit up. "Oh, you're not calling me Shen anymore?"

Seeing Xiao Yi's embarrassed expression, she smiled and said, "Actually, you can call me 'little sister'."

"How about this, I'll just call you brother, okay?"

"Who told you that you can't even pronounce the name 'Shuyi'?"

"Okay, thank you, little sister." Xiao Yi took off her glasses with one hand.

Shen Shuyi: "..."

He had never shouted like that before. Now he called out slowly, his voice sounding somewhat lazy because of its hoarseness. Shen Shuyi was a little unaccustomed to it.

Seeing that there was still a lot of medicine in the IV drip, and noticing that it was almost noon, Shen Shuyi stood up. "I'll go buy some food. Do you have any dietary restrictions?"

"The doctor said to eat something light. I was thinking of buying you some wontons or lean meat porridge. Do you eat scallions?"

"Eat." Xiao Yi took out her phone. "Don't run away, I'll order takeout."

"No, no, I don't know how hygienic the takeout shops are. I'll get it from the restaurant next door!" Shen Shuyi left without waiting for him to say anything more.

As Xiao Yi watched her retreating figure, his head was still spinning, but an inappropriate thought popped into his mind.

He longed to be with Shen Shuyi forever, so that he would have someone by his side when he was feeling down.
