Chapter 71
Chapter 71: Chengque, Time for Your Medicine
In the bedroom.
Fu Chengque, who was pretending to rest under the covers, was startled by this loud shout:
Here it comes!
Wen Yu really brought the medicine!
Wuwu, how could he be like this, caring so much that even this Qingmei of his had a shark in her heart right now.
What to do, should I admit to faking being sick?
No… that would mean being asked about the purpose of faking illness, and that would greatly increase the risk of exposing the fact that I have a system.
Better to pretend to sleep or throw a tantrum and refuse to drink it.
With a click, the door opened, and Wen Yu cautiously entered with the medicine.
Fu Chengque quickly closed her eyes to pretend to sleep.
“Manager Fu, it’s time to wake up and take your medicine.”
“…”
“Asleep already?”
“…”
“You fell asleep so quickly, how severe is this illness!”
“If I had known, I wouldn’t have taken you out for a walk this afternoon. Your parents will definitely scold me later…”
Wen Yu reached out and touched Fu Chengque’s forehead.
It wasn’t hot at all.
Seems like no fever.
Taking a closer look, the breathing was slightly rapid, with a faint flush on the face. Indeed, there was still a slight illness.
He gently nudged the girl and called out louder, “Fu Chengque, come on, get up, take your medicine before sleeping.”
No response.
“You really need to take it first, to prevent a fever.”
Fu Chengque felt Wen Yu wouldn’t give up calling her, pretending to sleep wouldn’t work, so she…
Threw a tantrum!
She opened her eyes slightly, pretending to be weak.
“Wen… Yu… cough“
“Don’t speak, come on, drink the medicine first.”
“I… I won’t drink… Let go…”
“After drinking, you can sleep.”
“I won’t!”
“Be good, after drinking, you can sleep. Otherwise, you might get a fever.”
“I won’t drink!”
“It’s sweet.”
“I won’t drink anything.”
“Oh, quite spirited, if you don’t want to drink, that’s fine. I’ll stay here to make sure you don’t get a fever, alright? Otherwise, not just your parents, even mine will scold me.”
“…”
Too… too difficult to deal with!
Throwing a tantrum won’t work, then…
She started acting cute!
She didn’t believe this wouldn’t work on him.
“I really don’t want to…”
“Still refusing?”
“It’s so bitter… I really can’t drink it…”
“After you finish, I’ll give you a piece of candy.”
Are you kidding with a child!
Fu Chengque felt she couldn’t keep pretending, she had to satisfy him quickly and then get him out.
“Drink…”
“That’s more like it.”
Wen Yu handed over the medicine, watching as Fu Chengque took a sip, then swiftly lay down again, covering her head with the blanket.
Seeing that she seemed quite lively, he didn’t force her to finish it. A cold wasn’t a serious illness; a good sleep should do the trick.
Then he went back to the room and fetched a piece of candy.
“Sugar, want to eat it now?”
Fu Chengque remained silent, indicating she didn’t want to eat through her actions.
“Then I’ll leave it on your desk, you should rest for a while.”
After saying that, he exited the bedroom.
Once Wen Yu left, Fu Chengque immediately threw up all the medicine she had in her mouth into the trash can.
The medicine, so bitter…
Glancing at the sky, tears welled up before words could be spoken.
Chengque, the prospective Empress, couldn’t help but sigh deeply: This plan was truly foolish!
In any case, this method couldn’t continue anymore, it was even more terrifying than the previous ones.
On the desk, there was a piece of candy.
She unwrapped it and put it in her mouth, the sweet taste instantly filled her mouth, washing away the bitter taste of the medicine. Along with it, Fu Chengque’s resentment towards Wen Yu dissipated a bit—
Although it wasn’t his fault in reality, but who made him the target of the task?
Although, he gave the candy.
But he also gave the medicine!

After Wen Yu returned to her room, she rested for a while before taking out her phone to message Lou Xuanli.
【Wen Yu】: Have you arranged everything for the New Year?
【Lou Xuanli】: Don’t worry boss, everything’s arranged perfectly.
【Lou Xuanli】: Are you really not coming to join us?
【Wen Yu】: I want to, but I’m busy.
【Lou Xuanli】: That’s a pity, everyone wants to see this mysterious boss.
【Lou Xuanli】: I’ve told all my female colleagues, our boss is handsome, successful, and rich, and most importantly, single!
【Lou Xuanli】: Did I embarrass you? Haha
【Wen Yu】: Thanks for that.
【Lou Xuanli】: How about sending a red envelope?
【Wen Yu】: [Red envelope]
【Wen Yu】: Let’s skip the bragging, focus on the task, and there will be rewards.
【Wen Yu】: Also, let’s have a company party before the Spring Festival.
【Lou Xuanli】: Haha, boss, you’re generous! Okay, I’ll arrange it over here, don’t worry.
【Lou Xuanli】: I feel like if I went to another company now, at the very least I’d be an executive, calling myself sister, I wouldn’t be willing to do that now.
【Wen Yu】: I completely agree.
【Lou Xuanli】: Haha, gotta go, gotta go.
The idea of finding someone to help with the studio before was indeed correct. Otherwise, with the current level of busyness, there would be no need to go to school, I’d be exhausted ahead of time.
Around eight o’clock in the evening, both sets of parents happened to return home.
Soon, Fu Chengque became lively in the chat group, seemingly recovered.
【Queen’s First Harem】(5)
【Fu Chengque】: I, the Empress, am in good health, my beloved subjects need not worry.
【Fu Chengque】: @Wen Yu @Xiao Gua @Lu Min @Fang Ling
【Xiao Gua】: Oh, you’re better now, that’s great, I was worried about you getting a fever this afternoon.
【Lu Min】: Chengque has a good constitution, a little cold is indeed not a problem.
【Fang Ling】: Thanks to your good constitution, you should have rested today. It’s impressive that you didn’t get a fever after running around outside.
【Fu Chengque】: Hahaha, just a little cold, nothing to worry about!
【Fu Chengque】: What about Wen Yu? Wen Yu? You didn’t even greet this Empress! @Wen Yu?
Wen Yu was busy watching videos.
Videos of rural cooking, fishing, and so on… There were plenty of “outdoor wild food” videos, completely different from those in the previous life. The familiar bloggers from before were completely absent here. This world had its own various types of bloggers, entirely different.
This was great.
Having different videos in two worlds meant double the content.
Using one unit of time to watch both rural cooking, trimming horse hooves, fishing, air force maneuvers, and tooth brushing…
This was what a good reincarnation felt like.
Fu Chengque sent Wen Yu a private message.
【Fu Chengque】: So bold! [Angry cat]
【Fu Chengque】: You didn’t even reply to me.
【Wen Yu】: What’s up?
【Fu Chengque】: Look at the group chat!
【Wen Yu】: Oh, I’m busy.
【Fu Chengque】: Busy my foot, your curtains aren’t drawn, I just saw you giggling at your phone.
【Fu Chengque】: Are you watching pretty girls? Let me see too, I also love pretty girls. [Excited cat] [Excited cat]
【Wen Yu】: [Video Share: The complete process of trimming a donkey’s hooves, which hasn’t been trimmed for 50 cm in five years, super relaxing!]
【Wen Yu】: [Video Share: The air force was empty again today, but something strange happened on the way…]
【Fu Chengque】: What’s this stuff! [Disdainful cat]
【Fu Chengque】: Why are you laughing at these?
【Wen Yu】: The comments are funny.
【Fu Chengque】: …
【Fu Chengque】: Are you free tomorrow?
【Wen Yu】: What’s up?
【Fu Chengque】: Hehe, it’s good news.
【Wen Yu】: Hurry up and tell me.
【Fu Chengque】: Private tutor, want to do it?
