170: Chapter 170 If it weren't for me, you would be finished.

He scanned today's intelligence.

Luo Wei immediately saw that Xia Ningxue was sick.

A high fever of forty degrees was no small matter; that situation was extremely dangerous!

Luo Wei didn't hesitate to wave at the group of girls. "I have something to do; I need to head out."

He had just taken a phone call, so saying he had things to attend to now didn't seem abrupt to anyone.

Moreover, everyone actually breathed a sigh of relief at his departure.

Earlier, when they were changing into their swimsuits, Luo Wei had suddenly returned.

This had left them feeling a bit frustrated.

As soon as Luo Wei left, the atmosphere in the room instantly became lively.

Wen Lili was the first to tease Su Xiaohe. "Xiaohe-jie was so pitiful just now. She had just taken off her clothes, and then..."

"Don't say it!" Su Xiaohe's round face flushed red as she hurriedly reached out to cover Wen Lili's mouth.

"Nanqiao-jie..." Luo Xiyao silently walked over and sat down beside Gu Nanqiao.

She asked curiously, "What are we eating for lunch today?"

Luo Xiyao wasn't exactly a foodie.

When she asked this question, she couldn't help but stare at Gu Nanqiao's gravity-defying figure.

Although Liu Zhixu and Su Xiaohe also had great bodies,

while they were changing into swimsuits just now,

Luo Xiyao had quickly ranked everyone in her mind!

Gu Nanqiao's figure was second to none among them!

Gu Nanqiao was quick-witted and instantly guessed Luo Xiyao's true meaning.

This young girl was envious of her figure and wanted to make a change.

Gu Nanqiao blushed and whispered into Luo Xiyao's ear.

"I'll write a recipe for you."

"Mm-hmm!" Luo Xiyao's eyes lit up with immense anticipation!

On the other side, Luo Wei had left home.

He was currently dialing Xia Ningxue's number.

He didn't know where the Police Beauty lived.

So, he had to call and find out for sure.

The call was connected quickly.

But Xia Ningxue's tired and dazed voice came through the receiver, "Hello..."

"Xiaoxue, it's Luo Wei..."

"Luo Wei, heehee..."

Hearing that it was Luo Wei calling her, Xia Ningxue was quite happy.

But she also complained a bit, "So you finally remembered to call me. I've been waiting for you to call..."

Without waiting for Luo Wei to speak, Xia Ningxue's mumbling continued through the receiver, "...You guy, you promised to come see me when you were free. I've been waiting all this time..."

Xia Ningxue sounded like she was talking in her sleep; she was clearly delirious from the fever.

"Xiaoxue, where do you live?"

"I live in your heart, heehee..."

Good grief, did this Police Beauty think she was dreaming?

Luo Wei didn't hang up. After getting into his car and sitting down, he sent a message to Li Yina, asking the villainous young miss to help investigate Xia Ningxue's residential address.

Although Taian Company had been restructured, the intelligence network it built had not been destroyed by Li Yina.

Li Yina quickly found Xia Ningxue's residence through the intelligence network.

After receiving the address provided by Li Yina,

Luo Wei quickly drove there.

In an apartment building.

Xia Ningxue was lying face down on the bed wearing her law enforcement uniform.

She had worked all day yesterday, and just as she was about to get off work in the evening, an emergency occurred, forcing her to work overtime all night.

After returning to her residence, she had flopped onto the bed and fallen straight asleep.

In her dream, she dreamed that Luo Wei called her.

Because she knew it was a dream,

she boldly bared her heart.

"...Do you remember? I once confessed my feelings to you."

"I'm a campus belle, you know? You turned me into a joke. You actually rejected me..."

"Do you know how long you made me suffer? During that time, I couldn't even eat..."

"Do you know? Aside from you, I haven't liked anyone else..."

"I thought I had forgotten you long ago."

"I didn't expect that when I saw you in the hospital last time..."

"You jerk, why did you have to grow up so handsome? My heart skipped a beat for you all over again..."

Xia Ningxue's dazed mumbling continued to come through the phone receiver.

Luo Wei listened with a smile while driving.

Under normal circumstances, Xia Ningxue would absolutely never say such things.

He really didn't expect to unexpectedly hear her true feelings while she was sick with a fever.

However, Xia Ningxue's voice grew smaller and more incoherent.

Her condition was clearly getting worse!

Luo Wei slammed on the gas, rushing toward Xia Ningxue's residence!

It didn't take long for him to successfully arrive downstairs at an apartment building.

When he went upstairs, there was no longer any sound coming from the phone receiver.

Clearly, Xia Ningxue, in her high-fever state, had lost consciousness.

Arriving at the door of Xia Ningxue's apartment, Luo Wei activated his Eye of Thoroughness and saw Xia Ningxue lying on the bed.

A security door couldn't stop him at all; with a light punch, he successfully destroyed the lock cylinder.

Luo Wei quickly entered the apartment and went to Xia Ningxue's room.

At this moment, Xia Ningxue was soaked from head to toe, radiating heat.

Her fair skin was flushed red, looking as if it were on fire.

She had lost consciousness, and the situation was very dangerous.

Luo Wei took out a mineral water bottle.

The bottle contained the spirit liquid he collected daily from the white jade porcelain bottle.

Opening the cap, he brought it to Xia Ningxue's soft, pink mouth and fed her a sip of spirit liquid.

This was undiluted spirit liquid; just this one sip was enough to significantly strengthen Xia Ningxue's physique.

After feeding Xia Ningxue only one sip of spirit liquid, Luo Wei put the bottle away.

The spirit liquid was practically a divine medicine; the effects were immediate upon ingestion!

Xia Ningxue, whose body had been burning up, was now having her fever break.

In her comatose state, she was bit by bit regaining consciousness.

Her long eyelashes trembled, and she smacked her lips, clearly savoring the delicious spirit liquid she had just drunk.

When she slowly opened her eyes, she could hardly believe them!

Her eyes widened as she looked at Luo Wei in disbelief!

She seriously suspected she was still dreaming!

She closed her eyes and opened them again!

After a good while, she was certain she wasn't dreaming!

She had no idea what had happened, but her head was actually resting on Luo Wei's lap.

Her fair cheeks, which had just cooled from the fever, now turned red at a visible rate, becoming burning hot.

She wasn't having another fever, of course; she was shy.

"You, you, I, I..."

She stammered, suddenly unable to speak properly.

Luo Wei picked up the phone lying aside. "I called you earlier, but I heard your voice didn't sound right, so I rushed over."

Xia Ningxue realized that the call between her and Luo Wei hadn't been hung up yet!

She instantly realized that she hadn't been dreaming just now.

She really had been on the phone with Luo Wei!

Thinking about her bold declarations in the "dream,"

she practically turned into a steam engine, her whole body so embarrassed she felt like she was about to start smoking!

Overwhelmed with shame, she could only cover her cheeks with her hands and hide like an ostrich.

"Your clothes are soaked through. Are you going to take a shower yourself, or should I help you?"

"I-I'll do it myself..." Xia Ningxue hurriedly got up.

She felt sticky all over, not knowing how much she had sweated.

"W-What happened to me just now?" Xia Ningxue was a bit confused about the situation.

"You had a fever of forty degrees. If I hadn't shown up in time, you'd be finished!"

Xia Ningxue had no memory of such a thing, but there was a lingering taste in her mouth.

Clearly, Luo Wei had fed her some kind of medicine.

She mumbled a thank you and quickly entered the bathroom.

Luo Wei went downstairs to buy tools to fix the damaged security door lock.

However, during this process, Xia Ningxue's phone kept receiving calls...
