chapter 152 – Almost unable to take care of oneself
Sending it over, she put the phone down and was about to get up when a reply came with a ding.
She was stunned to re-look at her phone.
[Sister Phoebe, are you sick? Are you okay? Is there someone around to take care of you?
Phoebe Barnes moved her fingers and replied, [I’m fine, I have friends around.
There was a minute pause in between, and just as she was about to lift the covers and get up, a direct voice message came from there.
[Sister Phoebe, I’m practicing a song in the practice room, and there’s nothing going on, so why don’t I come visit you, and you send me your address].
“…”
Phoebe Barnes felt a headache again, although she knows that the young people now are quite familiar, but the enthusiasm of this child how to feel a touch of discomfort, she is not what very hot star, usually because not much talk is not very attractive, she really some do not understand.
She didn’t reply immediately, but got up from the bed, picked up the robe on the floor and put it on.
However, the casual movement, the body is like running a marathon as sore.
Especially between the legs, the pain is simply difficult to close.
Take two steps, and she winces in pain.
He was moving in the direction of the bathroom when his cell phone weibo rang again.
She wrinkled her brow, but still turned her steps and walked over and tapped down the voice.
[Sister Phoebe, sorry, I’m a bit abrupt, if you’re not convenient, I’ll go next time].
Phoebe Barnes looked down and thought about it, but returned a sentence, [Don’t think too much, it’s not inconvenient, but I’m sick and can’t greet you, it will also delay your work, wait for some days, I invite you to dinner.
A big smiley face was quickly sent over there, and the tone of voice was quite well behaved.
?Hmmmm, then it’s an appointment, I’ll come to you when you’re well, then you get well, I won’t bother you.
Phoebe Barnes looked at it and returned a simple umph.
Putting down the phone, she was slightly thoughtful.
This Gu Zhen looks simple as if he has not experienced any darkness, but last night and can be so unmoved to help her relief, just purely because he is smart?

After an hour of soaking in hot water and applying some medicine, Phoebe Barnes stayed in her room all day.
During the day is also basically sleeping, to the evening, it is too hungry to stand, get up and hesitate to go down to find some food.
But it was humiliating for the maids to see her walking like that.
She was also embarrassed to face Chen’s mother.
Just as she was torn, Chen Ma knocked on the door, “Madam, are you awake?”
“Uh … is awake.”
“You’ve slept all day, you’re probably very hungry, I’ll go down and bring up the food for you.”
“… is fine, please.”
Phoebe Barnes’ irritation with Kemp Ross rose again in her heart.
Is there anything more humiliating than being made to live almost beyond his means?
But she knew better than anyone that this irritation existed only in her heart, and she didn’t dare to come at him at all.
A deep sense of frustration lingered until Chen’s mother came up with the meal, allowing her to abandon her worries for a brief moment.
She did not take long to finish eating, she heard the sound of the car engine downstairs, guessing that the man came back, then the little face changed, the quilt lifted, covering the head directly pretend to sleep.
Downstairs, Kemp Ross walked into the lobby in a straight suit, carrying his computer with an indifferent air.
Chen’s mother greeted him and took the jacket and computer from his hand.
The man asked, “Is she awake?”
Chen Ma nodded, “She woke up once in the morning and once in the evening, just after eating. But he doesn’t look very well.”
The man’s face did not change, faintly back, “Well, I know, tomorrow give her some soup, she wants to eat what she said to do.”
“Hey okay.”
The man pushed open the bedroom door, slowly walked to the bedside, lowered his eyes and looked at the motionless figure on the bed, eyebrows gently knitted, eyes hidden deep dark, I do not know what is thinking.
Phoebe Barnes, who was pretending to be asleep, eased her breathing when she heard the movement, and the steady footsteps sounded like a beat against her heart.
There was silence around for a second, and then a sudden light overhead.
It was the man who reached out and lifted the covers off her head, raising his eyebrows and snorting coldly, “Sleeping just after eating, are you a pig?”
Phoebe Barnes stiffened for a moment, then pretended to have just woken up and slowly opened her eyes, some as if she couldn’t stand the excitement of the light, squinted gently again to see the man’s face, and said in a low, hoarse voice, “You’re back?”
The man’s eyes looked towards her neck for a moment and smiled mercilessly, “Phoebe Barnes, can you pretend to be a little more professional? Sleeping in a jacket, how cold are you?”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes was stunned and suddenly remembered that she was sitting with a jacket on her body and had just been in too much of a hurry to take it off before lying down.
The small face changed and instantly had the embarrassment of being torn apart.
Kemp Ross didn’t bother to care about her messy emotions, his eyes moved to her pale face and frowned slightly, “Mama Chen said you slept all day?”
She blushed and pursed her lips and mmmed, “Hmm.”
It’s not that she doesn’t want to get up, it’s that all the joints are sore, especially the legs.
The man’s bony fingers gently rubbed her long black hair, his eyebrows were warm and calm, “Does it really hurt that much?”
Phoebe Barnes heard the words, beautiful eyes opened to meet the cold white light vaguely glared at him, not much momentum, more of a complaint of aggression, “how much force used you do not know?”
The pain in the shoulder and waist is completely pinched out by him.
That time in the hotel, even with the catalyst of drugs did not let him become so brutal, last night simply beastly.
Of course, these four words she did not dare to curse out, and could only use her eyes to continue to accuse.
The man’s eyebrows under the black broken hair look a few leisurely, the mood seems good, lazy voice, “I only clear you cool a few times.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes was annoyed, and could not scold him, so she closed her eyes and stopped talking to him.
Seeing the woman sulking like a small temper, Kemp Ross lips silently swept a curve, faint, seemingly absent, fingertips gently cut her face.
Undeniably, last night’s exercise is indeed a bit too much, than the last drug stimulation to lose their minds, but he is physically fit, rest a few hours to recover, just this woman seems to be really tormented.
What was the reason for last night, he was too lazy to dwell on it now, but there was no way he could lower himself to apologize to her, he just softened his tone a bit and said, “I’ll rub some medicine on you later.”
Phoebe Barnes eyes snapped open, glossy watery eyes showed a slight hint of surprise, heartbeat instantly missed a beat, stammered, “I, I rubbed the medicine.”
Is this his guilt?
Did he also find last night’s behavior a bit puzzling?
It’s really rare.
Phoebe Barnes’ resentment that had been bottled up all day was completely dissipated by his nonchalant words.
I felt quite unimpressed at once.
