Chapter 1741: Pulling Her into His Arms

“Wait for me for a while more,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said, then ran off.

Not long after, she came back with a box of pills.

“I’ll take this with me. When we reach the airport, buy a bottle of water and you can take one,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said.

Han Zhuoling glanced at it and saw that it was a box of flu pills and said, “I don’t have the flu.”

“Who said so? Just now at the balcony, your voice was already hoa.r.s.e,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said, showing that her ears were sharp.

Han Zhuoling: “…”

Was that because he felt cold?

Yet he could not tell s.h.i.+ Xiaoya the truth, which frustrated him badly.

“Then you have one too later.” Han Zhuoling felt that he could not be the only one taking the pill. If she could think of that tone as a hoa.r.s.e voice from the flu, she had to take one herself too.

“Huh? I’m fine. Why should I take flu medicine when I’m fine?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya pouted.

Han Zhuoling chuckled. He was fine too, but wasn’t he being forced to take one by s.h.i.+ Xiaoya as well?

“You didn’t wear a coat when you came down to fetch me earlier, and just now, you also wore so little to go out to the balcony. For prevention’s sake, it’s better to take one.” Han Zhuoling said all that nonsense with a serious face. “And the location for filming is relatively ordinary. If you suddenly went to a different place, it’s very easy for you to fall sick because you’re not used to the place, so it’s still better to take one beforehand.”

Han Zhuoling said it so logically and reasonably, making s.h.i.+ Xiaoya unable to rebut him.

She put the pills in her bag before finally pulling her luggage along and going out of the door with Han Zhuoling.

After entering the lift, Han Zhuoling asked her, “When you stay alone, do you often go to the balcony to stare at the scenery without wearing thick layers when the weather is cold?”

“Not often…” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said guiltily. “If it’s only for a few minutes, I won’t put on my coat just for it. But if it’s for a longer time, I will definitely have to put on a coat.”

“You can’t do this next time, even if the time is short,” Han Zhuoling said strictly. “You’re already a grown adult, so why do you still not know how to take care of yourself well?”

Being lectured by him like that made s.h.i.+ Xiaoya feel as if she was facing a very strict parental figure. s.h.i.+ Xiaoya lowered her head and said softly, “Oh.”

But why did this voice sound a little sad?

Han Zhuoling could only put his hands behind his back helplessly, to resist the urge to pull her into his arms and give her a comforting hug.

Why did she look so irresistibly cute when she looked so pitiful?

“I didn’t mean to sound so stern,” Han Zhuoling said in a gentler voice.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya was stunned for a moment. She then looked up at him and said, “I know.”

“When you’re living alone, be it if you’re sick or if anything happens, there wouldn’t be anyone right by your side in that moment. So you must learn to take care of yourself well. Don’t ignore it just because you think it’s a small issue,” Han Zhuoling said.

“Okay.” Afraid that Han Zhuoling would not believe it, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said seriously, “I really know it. I will also do as you said, not to ignore it just because it is a small matter.”

Han Zhuoling nodded, and a small smile crept up the corners of his lips.

At that moment, the lift reached the first floor.

The lift door opened, and Han Zhuoling took s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s luggage.

“I can take it myself,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said.

“You can help me open the door.” Han Zhuoling walked to the entrance and stopped.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya quickly opened the door, and Han Zhuoling pulled the two pieces of luggage over.

Han Zhuoling’s luggage was a normal 24-inch one, but s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s was bigger at 28 inches.

They would only be there for two days, so the clothes and daily necessities she brought were not a lot. The weather in Ning City was almost the same as it was here, so it would not be as extreme as the previous time in Man City.
