GTRSH Chapter 43

Fever

  The snacks were placed in a small transparent plastic box. Yu Xinche took it in his hand and looked at it, but did not open it: “Don’t you need to take a picture?”

  The Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, and Xu Le asked them to take two photos if they come across suitable materials recently, and then use them for business purposes.

“No need for this.” He Ci said.

TZ had a competition on the Mid-Autumn Festival, so he took advantage of today’s rest day to go home and have a meal.

His mother was a female boss when she was young. Like his father, she was obsessed with doing business and making money, and was busy every day.

Two years ago, she was ill, not seriously, but she became more open-minded after that. She began to slowly retire and enjoy her retirement life. Now she spends her days tending to flowers and plants and making snacks, and she has become a much gentler person.

When He Ci went home for dinner during holidays, she would often make some snacks for him to bring to his teammates.

Actually, he was planning to divide it up after returning to the base, but it seemed that his joke just now was not well-told. He just wanted to tease Yu Xinche, but he ended up feeling depressed after hearing it, as if his tail was about to droop.

He Ci then remembered that he had said before that the relationship at home was not good, so he took the rabbit out for him to play with in advance, hoping that it would change his mood.

“Let’s go back and eat with them.” Yu Xinche got in the car.

The weather had been fluctuating recently, with a temperature difference of more than ten degrees. The temperature should drop again tonight, and the wind was already cool. Autumn had arrived.

Yu Xinche felt a slight headache after sitting for a while. He closed the window on the passenger side, closed his eyes and leaned back in the seat to rest.

He Ci noticed that there was no movement beside him, so he glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, closed several car windows, and took out a coat from the bag next to him and put it on Yu Xinche while the light was red.

When he just left home, his mother was afraid that he would be cold, so she forced him to put on an extra coat before letting him go.

He Ci didn’t feel cold and took off his coat as soon as he got in the car.

It just came in handy now.

Yu Xinche slept very deeply. There was a traffic jam on the road, and the car stopped and started for almost two hours, but he didn’t wake up the whole time.

There was a speed bump when entering the park, the car shook a bit, but he didn’t wake up.

After parking the car, He Ci called him twice, but he still didn’t wake up.

Only then did he realize that something was wrong. He reached out and touched Yu Xinche’s forehead. Fortunately, it was not very hot.

He used some force to wake the person up. Yu Xinche was stunned for a while before he remembered where he was.

When he moved, the coat fell off. He Ci picked it up and said to him, “You seem to have a fever. Are you feeling unwell?”

Yu Xinche responded in a muffled voice.

He Ci shook his head helplessly, suspecting that he didn’t understand his question.

Afterwards, Yu Xinche unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car. His movements were a beat slower than usual, perhaps because he was still sleepy or because he was sick and had no strength.

When he reached the training room building and was about to step inside, He Ci stopped him and spoke to him slowly:

“No training today. Go back to your room, take your temperature, and then rest. Is that okay?”

Yu Xinche looked at his reaction for a while and nodded heavily.

He Ci sent the person back to the room, poured a glass of water, and went to find a thermometer.

All he found was an old-fashioned mercury thermometer. Five minutes later, Yu Xinche took out the thermometer, raised it with both hands, turned it around in front of the light, and stared at it to figure out the temperature.

Probably not finding it, he turned it around again, his eyes opening even wider.

When he turned it for the third time, He Ci couldn’t bear to watch it anymore, so he took it from him and looked at it himself.

37.5, a slight fever.

He Ci called the team doctor to inquire about the situation, but it was a holiday today and the team doctor did not come to the base.

He Ci quoted the team doctor’s words and asked Yu Xinche: “You have a low-grade fever. Are you feeling uncomfortable?”

“I feel sleepy and my head hurts a bit.”

He Ci asked again: “What else, does your throat hurt?”

Yu Xinche shook his head.

After hearing this, the team doctor said that there was no need to rush to take medicine for a low-grade fever. Yu Xinche was young and might get better after a good sleep. But He Ci was worried that his condition would get worse tomorrow, so he said that he should find some mild medicine to take and see how it goes.

He Ci was standing, and Yu Xinche was sitting next to him. He immediately shook his head when he heard that. Perhaps because he was afraid that he couldn’t see, he patted the back of He Ci’s hand twice and said, “No need to take the medicine.”

He Ci held the phone further away and asked in a low voice: “Don’t need it or don’t want to?”

Yu Xinche hesitated for two seconds: “Don’t want to.”

The two looked at each other for a moment, He Ci sighed and asked the team doctor: “If you don’t take the medicine, can you just sleep more?”

“Okay, then remember to come and have a look at him when you get to work tomorrow.”

After hanging up the phone, He Ci saw that the water had been drunk, so he poured him another half cup: “If you don’t want to take the medicine, forget it, just go to sleep. Call me if there’s anything at night, and call me if you feel unwell.”

“En En.”

“Can you wash and brush your teeth by yourself?” he asked again.

“En En En..” Yu Xinche looked up at him. His eyes were not as bright as usual, but he looked more obedient.

He Ci couldn’t help but rub his hair: “Okay, take a rest, I’m leaving first.”

Yu Xinche sat in the chair without moving, just leaning on the back and watching for a while.

When he reached the door, He Ci turned around again: “Don’t lock the door today, okay? If you need anything, I’ll just come in.”

“Okay.” Yu Xinche lay down like a little animal, “Bye.”

After He Ci went out, he first found Xu Le and asked him to help find an electronic thermometer.

After Xu Le found out about this, he was also concerned: “Ah, is he asleep now?”

“Yeah.”

“Okay, go ahead and do your things. I’ll take the thermometer directly to Xiao Yu’s room later.”

“…” He Ci wanted to say just give it to me, no need for you to take it in.

On second thought, he felt that his idea was strange. Since he could enter Yu Xinche’s room, why couldn’t others?

“What?” Xu Le saw that he was hesitant to speak, and thought that he had something else to explain.

“It’s okay. Just be gentle when you enter his room. I’m going to train.”

The remaining three teammates in the training room were all in queues.

They didn’t have to return to the team on rest days, but since there was a game the day after tomorrow, these people didn’t dare to slack off.

He Ci shared the snacks made by his mother with his teammates. Xiao Ou asked while eating:

“By the way, where’s Xiao Che? Didn’t you pick him up to come back with you?”

He Ci: “He has a slight fever, so he’s resting.”

The teammates were all focused on the game, and they didn’t think the situation was serious after hearing He Ci’s words, so they felt relieved after asking a few questions.

He Ci also started a ranking game.

He didn’t know if it’s because there were too many noobs at night, but he could kill more than ten people every time and finish a game in no more than twenty minutes.

After playing for two hours and winning five games in a row, he stared at the settlement panel for a while, picked up his phone and went out.

Yu Xinche was sleeping soundly, lying on his side with half his face buried in the quilt.

He Ci carefully took the electronic thermometer on the bedside table and scanned him, and found that he still had a low fever.

As long as it doesn’t get worse, he tiptoed out again.

After that, he returned to the training room and continued to queue for more than an hour. At his usual sleeping time, he turned off his computer and left.

Before going to bed, he went to Yu Xinche’s room again and found that his fever had subsided.

He was sleeping very soundly, his posture did not change, he was still buried in the pillow with only half of his face showing.

The lights were off in the room, and a few rays of moonlight shone through the curtains, quietly lighting up the room.

Maybe he was sleeping too soundly, He Ci suddenly wanted to stand in his room for a while.

But the next second, a voice in his head told him to get out right away. It was too weird to stand in someone else’s room and peep at him without turning on the lights in the middle of the night. He couldn’t do that.

He Ci had a very strong moral bottom line. He cursed himself as a pervert in his heart, closed the door and left.

Yu Xinche was unaware of this. When he woke up the next day, he no longer felt uncomfortable. He saw a thermometer next to him and dropped a drop of temperature on his forehead. The temperature was 36.8, very healthy.

He didn’t drink much last night, so everything that happened was still fresh in his mind.

He took a photo of the thermometer and sent it to He Ci, adding:

– I’m fine

He Ci replied with a “OK”.

After a while, the door opened.

Yu Xinche was still washing up when he came out with a toothbrush in his mouth. It was He Ci.

“Come with me to the team doctor later to have another look,” he said.

“Don’t need to bother.” Yu Xinche was brushing his teeth, speaking indistinctly.

He Ci leaned against the door: “Need. Brush faster.”

Yu Xinche took out the toothbrush: “Really, there’s no need, I feel very good now.”

“Don’t need it or don’t want to?” He Ci asked again, his tone different from last night.

“…” Yu Xinche felt that he would not be as easy to talk to today as he was last night. After struggling for a moment, he said, “I don’t want to, and I really don’t need to.”

He Ci smiled and remained unmoved: “I think it’s needed, hurry up.”

Yu Xinche resigned himself to his fate and went back to brush his teeth, then went downstairs with him.

A small area on half a floor of the base was reserved for the team doctor, which is equipped with basic medical equipment. He first drew a tube of blood from him and then asked about some routine symptoms.

“I’ll send you the results when they come out. There shouldn’t be any problem,” said the team doctor.

He Ci: “Yeah.”

Yu Xinche held the cotton swab and complained quietly after leaving the room: “I told you not to do it. My arm hurts from having my blood drawn. If I use the wrong skills in the training match later, I’ll blame you.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll Carry.”

Apparently he failed to cause trouble, so Yu Xinche added, “I think you have the potential to be a father. You are so attentive and you will definitely be responsible for the child.”

He Ci glanced at him and said slowly: “You also know that only children don’t want to see a doctor or take medicine?”

“…” Yu Xinche pretended not to hear and quickly walked to the cafeteria to eat.

The test results came out quickly, and the team doctor sent the same conclusion to Yu Xinche, He Ci, and Xu Le:

– The blood test results were normal. I personally speculate that it is because he stayed up too late recently, which caused his immunity to decline. The temperature difference has changed a lot recently, so he may not be able to adapt.

– Xiao Yu should rest more and drink more water recently. Training is important, but you still need to take care of your body.

After reading it, Yu Xinche replied “OK, thank you”, saying that he would actively adjust, but in fact he didn’t take it to heart.

He was indeed the one who went to bed the latest in the team. He usually practiced one or two more games than his teammates at night. In the morning, except for He Ci, he would also get up a little earlier than others and could also practice two more games.

Xu Le had mentioned once before that he could go to bed early, but he just brushed it off because he thought it was normal for a newcomer to practice more.

He didn’t have as much experience as his teammates, and his hero pool was inherently limited.

Although we had won the recent games, if he didn’t make up for it quickly by training more, problems may soon be exposed.

Rather than relying on his teammates to win the game by chance, he wanted to stand out on his own.

After three supports were banned in the last game, he decided to change his previous bedtime routine of 2 o’clock to 3 o’clock so that he could play one more game.

On the day the team doctor sent this message, Xu Le mentioned Yu Xinche’s name during the review and asked him to practice one hour less and go to bed early.

Yu Xinche nodded again, with the corners of his mouth raised in just the right arc, appearing a very well behaved person.

Especially deceptive.

Xu Le believed it immediately and jumped directly to the next topic.

As for He Ci, Yu Xinche didn’t know whether he believed it or not. He was afraid that he would feel guilty when he saw He Ci, so he didn’t look in his direction when he nodded.

At one o’clock at night, the teammates turned off their computers and left one after another. Yu Xinche glanced at He Ci’s computer screen. He was about to leave after playing a game.

Before leaving, He Ci called him and asked him to go to bed early.

Yu Xinche agreed: “Okay, let’s play this last game.”

Afterwards, he met OBSESS, Zhou Fang, who had come to his live broadcast room to give him gifts.

Zhou Fang and his team all had a very busy schedule. They haven’t gone to bed yet at this hour, and you could tell from the voice microphone that it’s very lively.

“God Che, do you mind if I’m live streaming?”

“No, it’s okay.”

“Okay. Mainly because it’s the end of the month and I owe too much time.”

Yu Xinche’s show just started this month, so there’s no time requirement. However, he knows that Xiao Ou and the others are also rushing to meet the time requirement recently, so he could understand the pain of having to rush the show.

After playing a game, Zhou Fang asked him to play duo, and Yu Xinche estimated that there was enough time to play two more games, so he agreed.

The last time he rejected Zhou Fang’s invitation to play duo, he said they could play together next time they met, so he might as well take this opportunity to return the favor.

Yu Xinche wanted to practice heroes, so when choosing a support, he directly asked Zhou Fang what kind of support he wanted and got it himself.

Zhou Fang was also a good person. He would also explain to him why his AD wanted to pair with this support, whether it was for laning considerations or team fight considerations.

The two of them cooperated well and played three games without realizing it.

Yu Xinche felt a little sleepy not long after the third game started. He tried to stay awake and continued playing. Halfway through, he suddenly felt the back of his chair sink.

He Ci took off his headphones, leaned over the back of his chair and stared at him: “God Che, is this what you mean by playing a round and then going to sleep?”
