Although Elaine shamelessly used her body to intervene in her and Jacob’s feelings, she was unwilling to do the same thing.
Just as she sighed in her heart, Jacob had already walked over with a wet towel.
Jacob wiped her forehead with a wet towel, and said, “Miqing, I bought you some digestible dinners. After a while, I will help you go back to the room and lie down on the bed. Then I will feed you something. In addition, you have already taken the anti-fever medicine, I believe it will not take long for the fever to go away.”
Meiqing nodded: “Thanks for your hard work, Jacob, to be honest, I’m really hungry. I haven’t eaten much all day.”
Jacob hurriedly said, “Hey, why didn’t you tell me earlier? You should have told me as soon as you fell ill. In the end, you are fine. If I didn’t ask you on WeChat, you won’t tell me the truth!
Meiqing said, “I don’t want to bother you either. I thought I can survive it. I didn’t expect it to get worse.
Jacob sighed and said with affection: “If you have something like this in the future, you must notify me as soon as possible. I will definitely come here as soon as possible, okay?!”
Meiqing nodded and said gratefully: “Okay…I see…”
Jacob was satisfied, and said, “By the way, Meiqing, where is your temperature meter? I’ll take your temperature again to see if it has improved.”
Meiqing nodded, pointed to a thermometer on the coffee table, and said, “Before you came, I wanted to take another test, but I really don’t have any strength in my body. I can’t shake the mercury thermometer, so, please. Give it a shake…”
Jacob hurriedly reached out and grabbed the thermometer in his hand. While shaking it, he said distressedly: “Hey, I really didn’t know that Paul was on a business trip. Otherwise, I must have come to see you a long time ago. You are sick at home. What can I do if there are three long and two short…”
As he said, he handed the handed thermometer to Meiqing, and said, “Clip it quickly. Next time, I will buy an electronic thermometer to avoid inconvenience for you.”
As soon as he finished his speech, he remembered something, and hurriedly changed his words: “Don’t buy electronic ones. Electronic ones are not as accurate as mercury. If you can’t shake it by yourself, ask me and I will help you.”
Meiqing nodded moved.
She was naturally very pleased with the thoughtfulness of Jacob in her heart, especially when she was sick, she suddenly didn’t know where the sense of dependence grew.
So she said with a bit of shyness: “Thank you, Jacob.”
