Unfortunately, the weather was uncooperative. It was sunny in the morning, but a light drizzle started just before she was about to leave work. Tang Junyao had come by bicycle, and the weather was truly unpredictable.

The phrase "unpredictable weather" immediately brought a person to mind; the weather was just like that person, changing color constantly.

Shaking her head, she realized that she had probably been bothered by his messages too much lately, otherwise why would this name have appeared?

I looked up at the gloomy sky. It wasn't heavy; it was just a light drizzle, not enough to get me soaked.

After she got in the car, she started to speed up, speeding along the road like the wind, constantly weaving through the endless stream of vehicles. However, the rain really didn't cooperate and showed no sympathy for her not having brought a raincoat. In an instant, a torrential downpour began.

She was soaked to the bone. Her phone vibrated in her pocket, and a white Toyota slowly approached. She slowed down and glanced back; it was her brother's bodyguard, Baihu. She stopped beside him, and the car slowly came to a stop. A moment later, Baihu got out, holding an umbrella that mostly sheltered Tang Junyao's head. The rain was so heavy that he was instantly drenched. "Miss, please get in the car. I'll drive this one back for you. It's too rainy; it's not safe."

Baihu thought, "If something happens, I won't be able to explain it to Young Master Lan. Miss's safety is of utmost importance. My mission in staying in the capital is to protect her."

Tang Junyao's clothes are dripping wet now, so it's not suitable for her to sit in the car, and she'll just get the car dirty. She might as well get wet herself and not let anyone else get wet. She should be able to take a hot shower when she gets home and not catch a cold.

Thinking about it, she declined Baihu's offer, saying, "It's alright, you guys get in the car. I'm already soaked, and it's not far from home, so let's not stand here chatting." Baihu still held the umbrella for Tang Junyao with a worried expression.

Seeing that Baihu was still worried, she spoke up again, "I'm really fine, I'm a doctor, don't you believe me? Let's go quickly, or I might really catch a cold if we wait any longer."

Baihu knew that Tang Junyao didn't want to trouble them and was quite stubborn, so he could only get in the car, restart it, and follow behind.

The rain was too heavy, and Baihu didn't see a black car following behind his vehicle.

As the black Maybach passed by, the man's eyes revealed displeasure. The woman was soaking wet, rainwater streaming down her face like tap water.

Xu Mingkai glanced at the cold-faced man in the back seat. "Young Master Ji, it seems that the young mistress is soaked to the bone."

The man didn't speak at first, but after a moment of silence in the carriage, he finally spoke, "Do you think I'm blind?"

Xu Mingkai was speechless. Who had offended him? It was just a kind reminder. "No one."

No one spoke after that. Ji Hancheng turned to look at the torrential rain outside the window, his mind filled with the image of the woman being soaked through by the rain. He felt inexplicably irritated. Why didn't she check the weather forecast?

When Tang Junyao arrived home, her clothes were dripping wet. Aunt Zhang was startled when she saw her. "Miss, why did you come home soaked? We can take a taxi or stay at the hospital for a while with the young master. Why did you come back in the rain? It's easy to catch a cold in this weather."

Aunt Wu had already taken a blanket from the bathroom and draped it over Tang Junyao. "Go to your room and take a hot bath. Soak for a while to get rid of the coldness in your body. I've already turned on the hot water in the bathtub."

Tang Junyao smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, Auntie. Lele's mom will go take a shower first and then come back to hug you. Auntie, I'm probably all wet when I came in, could you please wipe me down?"

Aunt Zhang scolded playfully, "What are you saying, child? Hurry up and go."

Tang Junyao smiled, made a face at her son, and went into the master bedroom.

Stepping into the bathroom, she found the bathtub almost full. She removed the blanket and turned off the faucet. The water was a little too hot; her aunt probably wanted to warm her up, and indeed, she was feeling a bit chilly, as the spring rain was quite cool.

I took off my wet clothes and lay down in the warm water. The warmth instantly washed over me, and every cell in my body opened up. It felt so good. I half-closed my eyes and enjoyed the water temperature, but for some reason, I felt a little dizzy. My first instinct as a doctor was that I might have caught a cold.

After soaking for about 10 minutes, the water temperature dropped, so she got out of the bathtub to get dressed. She felt a little dizzy, so she just put on a bathrobe. It seemed she couldn't sleep with Xiaoyouzi that night; it would be troublesome if she caught something.

The weather forecast clearly said it would be cloudy today, so how come it's raining? That's so unreliable.

She planned to put on some clothes and then go to the medicine cabinet to find some cold medicine, but she kept sneezing, so she could only take a mask out of the drawer and put it on. She then got up and took an empty cup to the kitchen to pour water.

The water stains on the floor had been cleaned up by the housekeeper. She took a cup to the kitchen to pour water. "Auntie, Lele can sleep with you tonight. I think I've caught a cold."

Aunt Zhang was a little worried. "Young Master, don't worry, we'll take good care of you. Are you feeling unwell? Have you taken any medicine? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

Feeling warm inside from her aunt's continuous concern, Tang Junyao raised her cup to indicate that she was pouring water and that her aunt didn't need to worry. The aunt was relieved to see that she was already taking her medicine.

Aunt Wu began to persuade Xiaoyouzi, "Lele's mother is sick. Let's not bother her tonight and let her rest well, okay? Sleep with Grandma, and I'll tell you some nice stories."

Little Yuzu very sensibly agreed, saying that tomorrow is the weekend, and she should sleep in for one night and rest for two days.

In the early hours of the morning, Tang Junyao felt like her body was on fire. She only had cold medicine at home, not fever reducer. She was usually very healthy and only had a fever twice a year, so she didn't have the habit of keeping fever medicine on hand. She tried to check the time on her phone, but she had no strength at all. She couldn't even open her eyes, and her breath was hot enough to scald someone. She knew she had a fever, and it was quite high.

At this point, only an IV drip was possible. She struggled to get her phone out and saw it was already past midnight. Having no other choice, she had to bother Baihu. She dialed the number, and a respectful voice came from the other end, "Miss, are you feeling unwell?"

Baihu wasn't actually fast asleep. Tang Junyao had gotten caught in the rain today, and he was worried she'd catch a cold, so he slept in his car downstairs while waiting to be summoned.

Tang Junyao slowly exhaled, "Find a doctor, I have a fever." It felt like she had used up all her strength just to say those few words.

Baihu received the order and immediately called the director of the Imperial Hospital, regardless of whether he was asleep or not, based on the principle that the young lady's illness was a serious matter.

The dean's phone number was personally made by him after he came to the capital, out of fear that if needed, people like them would get hurt from time to time, living on the edge of a knife, with unpredictable accidents every day.

Unexpectedly, the connection I established was used on a prostitute for the first time.

The doctor arrived quickly. He was a middle-aged man who looked quite mature. Beside him was a tall girl wearing a long black dress that covered her ankles, but you could still see that her shoes were very large when she walked. Her long black hair was loose and covered half of her face. She wore a loose trench coat over her clothes, which made her look somewhat androgynous.

The tall woman was wearing a mask, obscuring her facial features. Her height and shoe size aroused Baihu's suspicions, but her eyebrows were exquisitely drawn, and beneath her long eyelashes were a pair of captivating eyes. The crystal earrings that peeked out under the streetlights dispelled Baihu's doubts.

Led by Baihu, the two doctors entered the elevator. He pressed the button for the 25th floor, and the elevator went straight up. Soon, they arrived at the door, and Baihu began to remind them, "Please keep your voices down. There are elderly people and children sleeping at home."

The middle-aged doctor responded, "Okay, you don't need to worry about the nurse next to me making noise; she's mute."

Baihu cast a sympathetic look at the woman. She was so tall and handsome, and her features should be quite good-looking, so it was a pity that she was mute. He silently sympathized with her for a while before leading them inside.
