There’s a fever, make him comfortable. (2)

Lu Nan went to bed later than him, and closed his eyes only after the boy’s breathing became stable.

He insisted on sleeping with someone in his arms, not only because of selfishness, but also because he could know whether Lin Yuhe had a fever or not.

In the middle of the night, Lin Yuhe really caught fire, and Lu Nan woke him up to take his temperature, it was thirty-eight degrees.

Lu Nan went to find a bag of antipyretics for Lin Yuhe to drink. The body temperature was not too high, and Lin Yuhe didn’t react too much, but he was so sleepy that he kept rubbing his eyes. After drinking the medicine, he lay down and fell asleep again.

Lu Nan waited for a while to make sure the other person’s body temperature did not rise again before going to sleep.

Fortunately, the antipyretics took effect quickly. When Lu Nan woke up early in the morning, he took his temperature again, and it had already dropped to thirty-seven degrees.

Doctor Zhou came to check on Lin Yuhe and brought new medicine.

Lu Nan always speaks very seriously when he spoke about him. He treated him like a child, and the pills are replaced with children’s standard sizes.

Although the fever subsided, Lin Yuhe’s consciousness was still a little drowsy, and he sat there blankly after being called up, and he would only move if Lu Nan said a word.

After Dr. Zhou left, Lin Yuhe, who was lying back in the soft quilt, was still awake, frowned when he saw Lu Nan brought new cold medicine.

Lu Nan got a little closer, and saw Lin Yuhe tucked himself into the quilt.

“Be careful,” said Lu Nan.

A ball of quilt on the bed moved, opened a crack at the top, and then stopped moving again.

Seeing that Lu Nan really wanted to strip him out of the quilt, and then strip him directly out of his pajamas.

However, Lu Nan still had a calm expression on his face, and said, “It’s fine if you don’t take it now, I’ll put the medicine by the bed, remember to take it at noon.”

The medicine should be taken twice a day, but it was alright to take it later in the noon.

The quilt ball didn’t move, as if pretending not to hear.

Lu Nan put down the medicine and said, “I still have to go to the laboratory to find Dr. Xie this morning.”

The quilt ball moved this time, but it shrunk itself even tighter, even pressing back the seam that was opened just now.

The implied resistance was quite obvious.

If he doesn’t want to go, he doesn’t have to, and Lu Nan doesn’t intend to let Lin Yuhe go out. If one had a cold, they should take a good rest.

He said, “Then cancel it first, you have a good rest at home, and I will come back after I finish my work.”

Lu Nan turned around and changed his coat. He was still worried when he came back, fearing that Lin Yuhe would be bored, so he glanced at the bed again.

When he took a look, he realized that the boy on the bed had stuck out of the quilt at some point and was staring at his movements.

Seeing Lu Nan looking over, Lin Yuhe didn’t look away.

He opened his mouth, with the lipstick that Lu Nan had just helped to apply on his lips, his voice was a little hoarse.

“Gege.”

Lu Nan walked over, thinking that something was wrong with him. “I’m here.”

“What’s wrong?”

The boy looked at him intently with those beautiful deer-like eyes, and asked softly.

“Can you come back sooner?”

Lu Nan paused.

But the boy didn’t notice it, and felt that it wasn’t the same, so he added another sentence.

“I miss you.”

The most provocative and unaware, who could withstand a straight ball.

Lu Nan almost failed to go out.

In the end, he had to help Lin Yuhe reapply the lip balm again.

After going out, Lu Nan didn’t go directly to the company, but went to Xie Mingshen first.

He informed in advance that Lin Yuhe didn’t come, so Xie Mingshen received him directly.

The two chatted briefly.

Xie Mingshen said, “At present, what is certain is that Ningning has no organ, lesion, or physical trauma. His usual mental state is relatively stable, and he has studied psychology and is proficient in taking test scales. SDS and SAS scores are within the normal range.”

The SDS measures depression and the SAS measures anxiety.

Lu Nan frowned and said, “He has learned these things, will he intentionally answered in a way to gain normal results?”

Honestly, this question was pretty dangerous.

“There are not many problems that can be seen on the scale. This is just a basic test. But Ningning does have a tendency to close himself. He didn’t deliberately refuse to cooperate, but he was still protecting himself subconsciously.”

Xie Mingshen continued, “Although he has studied psychology and was exposed to some professional fields with his parents when he was a child, it is difficult for even a professional doctor to deal with his illness. Ningning’s current situation may be able to make self-judgment, but it’s hard to coach yourself and take steps to change. Besides, it is difficult to make a complete judgment even now. Ningning’s psychological trauma is hidden relatively deeply.”

Xie Mingshen further explained, “What I have learned now is that he had a relatively cheerful personality when he was young, and he was willing to communicate with others.”

From a professional point of view, it is generally not recommended that psychological counselors consult and treat acquaintances. However, the two haven’t seen each other for nearly ten years, and they only got together for two years before, so their relationship was not too deep now. Xie Mingshen understood Lin Yuhe’s situation back then, but more understanding comes from the present.

“But now he has begun to close himself, and his feelings are weak. The reasons for this change in him still need to be explored.”

Lu Nan paused and said, “Is it because his father and stepmother’s behavior?”

“There should be this part of the reason.” Xie Mingshen said, “However, I’m still thinking about another possibilities.”

He then explained, “In the energy hierarchy of negative emotions, anger and disappointment are at the bottom, and they are relatively easy to adjust. The strongest and most harmful negative emotions are actually shame and guilt. In the case of Ningning, I want to find out if there is any influence of the latter.”

Lu Nan frowned. “Okay.”
