What if you were targeted by a cool and aloof beauty?

"Just drink from the pot. The water inside is hot, so it shouldn't cool down too quickly. I'll wash the kettle afterwards." Jiuge hugged the entire pot to her chest.

She took a breath and pretended to personally take the kettle of hot water to feed An Chen.

"?" Upon hearing this, An Chen subconsciously tried to take the dangerous kettle from him, but Jiu Ge nimbly dodged his movement.

"Come on, open your mouth." Jiuge gripped the kettle tightly, the spout already pointed at An Chen's head.

"Meow!!!!" Sensing something was wrong, Milk Candy quickly ran away on its toes.

If you accidentally spill boiling water on it...

The cat is definitely going to die!

“People will die.” An Chen understood Jiu Ge’s feelings.

If it were Jiuge who had the problem right now, he would definitely be very uneasy.

But the scene before my eyes...

"You really will die." An Chen covered his mouth, determined not to let Jiu Ge find a chance to pour boiling water in.

“Your whole body is ice cold, inside and out. Even if you drink it all at once, it will only be ordinary hot water. I don’t want you to touch it yourself because I’m afraid it will cool you down too much.” Seeing that An Chen didn’t understand what she meant, Jiu Ge straightened her face and explained seriously.

Perhaps using poison to fight poison can warm An Chen's heart again.

"Is there any possibility..." An Chen suddenly felt very sorry for himself.

What terrible things has he done?

"What's possible?" Jiuge tilted her head and blinked.

"When I touched the water glass, the boiling water turned into lukewarm water," An Chen said gently, recounting what had just happened.

"Mmm." Jiuge nodded.

“My physical condition is still unclear. If you ask me to drink hot water without touching the kettle, what if the water isn’t cold and goes straight down my throat?” An Chen patiently presented his hypothetical scenario.

"..." Upon hearing An Chen's words, Jiu Ge's pupils dilated in shock for a long time.

She placed the kettle on the coffee table and nudged An Chen's cold back.

"You drink it yourself."

"Waaaaah, please don't die." Jiu Ge said, tears welling up in her eyes as she pushed An Chen forward.

"I won't die." An Chen was a little confused.

What's happening here?

He quickly grabbed the kettle and drank all the boiling water in one go.

“But I’ve never seen a disease like yours before.” Jiuge sniffed, her eyes reddening.

"They won't die."

After drinking a pot of boiling water, An Chen felt his body temperature rise a little.

"Drinking boiled water does help." If there's anything wrong with it, it's that his stomach felt bloated and uncomfortable after drinking it.

"Really?" Jiuge rubbed her eyes and placed her hand on the back of An Chen's hand.

"It does seem a little warmer." She stopped sniffling.

"Yeah, so it's nothing." An Chen rubbed his stomach.

He could even hear the sound of water flowing inside his stomach.

"But what if he dies? You said Hua Zhijian is half-dead... and... we've never seen this before, we don't know what will happen, it's like how water from a kettle might scald you to death even if it doesn't touch your body." Jiuge asked worriedly.

The question is reasonable, and the analysis is also reasonable.

For a moment, An Chen didn't know what to say in response.

"In any case, I won't die." He put on an expression that suggested he already knew everything and that this little thing wouldn't be difficult for him.

"Let's take the temperature." Jiuge got up and took a thermometer out of the coffee table drawer.

She shook herself and, mimicking how the housekeeper used to take her temperature, inserted the thermometer under An Chen's armpit.

"Don't move for three minutes." Jiu Ge gently pressed An Chen's arm, afraid that An Chen wouldn't hold the thermometer tightly.

"Mhm." An Chen nodded.

The feeling of being taken care of was much better than I had imagined.

It's been a long time since I've felt this way again.

Three minutes later, Jiuge pulled out the thermometer.

She raised her hand and pointed the thermometer at the ceiling, looking it over from left to right.

"How is it? Is it very low?" An Chen asked with a smile.

The number displayed on the thermometer must be enormous.

"Twenty degrees!" Jiuge suddenly exclaimed.

She gripped An Chen's shoulders tightly and shook him violently: "Are you sure you won't die? At this temperature..."

"No, don't worry." An Chen reached out and grabbed Jiu Ge's arm, removing her hand from her shoulder.

"Really?" Jiuge was still not quite convinced.

“It’s really not a big problem, and my constitution is different from yours, so I can use spirit coins.” An Chen gave a reasonable explanation.

“That’s good… Then tonight we…” Jiuge began.

Before he could finish speaking, An Chen suddenly grabbed her leg.

"Oh dear!" Jiuge quickly retreated.

“That’s right, stay away from me.” An Chen nodded in satisfaction.

He suddenly realized that he was still unsure whether the phenomenon was contagious.

If the source of infection is not Hua Zhijian but an infectious disease, then that would be troublesome.

"?" Jiuge burst into tears on the spot.

"No, I mean I don't know if this phenomenon is contagious. It would be troublesome if it spreads to you. I didn't mean you can't get close to me!" An Chen's brain worked at lightning speed, explaining clearly in the blink of an eye.

"I don't think it's contagious." Jiuge's tears stopped abruptly.

If An Chen didn't know Jiu Ge, he would almost have thought she was acting.

"In short, it's not contagious." Jiuge's tone became increasingly certain.

"Why do you think that?" An Chen asked, puzzled.

There needs to be some scientific evidence to convince people.

He would certainly not be willing to let Jiuge continue to take risks.

We've already touched it so many times.

"Just like you think you won't die," Jiuge said matter-of-factly.

She didn't want to leave An Chen alone, nor did she want to be unable to be close to him because of this.

"No, anyway, tonight, the two of us will sleep in our own rooms," An Chen emphasized, enunciating each word clearly.

“But…” Jiuge was unconvinced.

“No buts.” An Chen’s attitude was resolute.

"Maybe it will be better tomorrow." Seeing Jiuge's pitiful look, his tone softened a bit.

"Alright then." Jiuge twirled a strand of hair.

"I'll cook for you today, you just stay in your room and rest." She pointed upstairs, gesturing for An Chen to hurry up.

"Hmm." An Chen was a little worried, but he still nodded.

For so long, he had never tried letting Jiuge cook for him alone.

Although I've given it a brief introduction, Jiuge hasn't had a chance to put it into practice yet.

Now might be a good opportunity.

"Then you should go upstairs quickly, I'll go to the kitchen to study first," Jiuge urged obediently.

"Okay." An Chen got up and walked upstairs.

Just as he stepped into the room, Jiu Ge's voice came from below again.

"The sofa I ordered should arrive tomorrow, and there will be another car later. Both are back-to-school gifts for you."

After saying this, Jiuge's voice completely disappeared into the kitchen.

“?” An Chen was shocked.

He seemed to have just heard something incredible.

……

Jiuge's cooking was very simple: stir-fried green peppers with pork and a steamed egg.

To An Chen's surprise, both dishes looked delicious and tasted amazing.

"Is it good?" Jiuge asked with a look that said, "Praise me!"

"Mmm, it tastes even better than what I make." An Chen gave it a very high rating without holding back.

"That's good." Jiuge nodded and began to eat with peace of mind.

"So what kind of car are you talking about? When will it arrive?" An Chen finished a large bowl of rice in a few bites and then added another bowl for himself.

"Keep it a secret." Jiuge insisted on protecting the secret to the end.

"The car is still on your tab; I can drive it normally," An Chen suggested.

He was worried that Jiuge would buy a subpar car.

They were even more worried that Jiuge had bought an expensive luxury car.
