Chapter 614 How Does Gu Li Know Mi Luan(11)
"Mi Luan"
Gu Li called out feeling the warmth of the small frame in his embrace. The warmth was too much for him to know that Mi Luan was sick.
At the same time, Rong Ting entered the cave with a basket of fruits in his hands. His other hand held the firewood that he had tried his best not to get wet but they still got soaked in the rain because of how fast it was raining.
However, Gu Li's attention was not on him at all.
At this moment, his panic-filled eyes were fixed on Mi Luan's closed eyes. He patted Mi Luan's covered cheek lightly with his hands.
However, Mi Luan never opened his eyes.
"Xiao Luan."
The name unconsciously slipped out of Gu Li's lips. Perhaps it was because of the concern he was feeling for the weak and young boy at this moment.
Seeing his panic-stricken face and his worried voice, all the other shadow guards also got to know very soon that something was not right so they started to gather around Gu Li.
"He is having a high fever."
Gu Li raised his head to look at the old master when he heard him saying this.
"Fever…"
He whispered as he looked at the unconscious Mi Luan. Indeed, Mi Luan's slightly exposed forehead was completely red.
Gu Li looked like a lost child as he again looked at his master and said in a concerned and panic-filled voice.
"Master, what should I do?"
The old master also had a serious face and said immediately
"We need to change his clothes. They are wet. It is not good for him to wear the same clothes any longer otherwise it will harm his body more."
Gu Li nodded his head immediately. He couldn't even remember the last time he had fallen ill or he had to take care of a sick person. So how could he know what he should do in such a situation! He was completely clueless and he didn't like it at all.
His Xiao Luan was sick and he didn't know anything about how he could cure him.
Frustration and self-blame were evident in Gu Li's eyes as he forwarded his hand to remove Mi Luan's clothes.
However, just when his hands had touched Mi Luan's cloth, the old master held his hand.
Gu Li was confused because of being stopped and raised his head to look at the old master.
"You can't change his clothes."
"Why?"
Gu Li asked with a frown that expressed his confusion.
The old master's face was expressionless as he looked at Gu Li and then at Mi Luan who was unconscious.
It was a moment later, that he finally said
"He won't like it. Did you not see how he didn't even let you remove his veil?"
Gu Li's frown went deeper and he said strictly
"I don't care, Master. I don't care if he doesn't like it. There is nothing to get angry about or dislike about this. I just don't want him to get sick. He would understand."
Saying this, Gu Li again stretched out his hand to continue his work.
However, just when his clothes touched Mi Luan's clothes, he heard Mi Luan's whisper.
"Don't …"
"Xiao Luan."
Gu Li was very happy on hearing Mi Luan's voice. It made him feel relieved because he thought that Mi Luan was still fine.
The fever must be light. Yes, Xiao Luan will get better soon. Gu Li said this to himself again and again.
He even comforted Mi Luan with the same words. He caressed Mi Luan's forehead as he said gently.
"Xiao Luna, you will be fine. Let elder brother remove your clothes. They are wet and they will make you feel colder."
However, in response Mi Luan kept his eyes shut but curled up his body more as if he was trying to evade Gu Li.
All the gentleness vanished from Gu Li's eyes.
His face was expressionless as he said coldly
"Today, I won't listen to you."
Saying this, he held Mi Luan's body firmly and held his clothes again. His eyes went colder when he realized that he could the warmness through the clothes itself. The fever was not light at all.
Gu Li concluded silently.
However, Mi Luan was still struggling to get free from his hold, though he couldn't apply much force because of the weakness in his body as he had fever.
Gu Li's eyes were filled with helplessness this time.
"Why are you behaving like this?"
He asked helplessly but Mi Luan continued to move his body lightly indicating that he didn't want him to remove his clothes.
Gu Li had his heart full of conflicts. He didn't want to force Mi Luan and he didn't want him to get sick also. He didn't know what he should do.
Just at this moment, the old master spoke to Gu Li.
"All of you leave from here."
"But Master…"
Gu Li wanted to protest. However, one look from his master made him shut his mouth. He saw the shadow guards silently leaving the cave though it was raining heavily outside.
He was the last person to stand up. However, before turning around, he couldn't help but say again.
"Master, Xiao Luan is young. He doesn't know what is good for him. We can't agree with all of his unreasonable wishes."
Gu Li actually didn't understand why Mi Luan was resisting so much.
The only reason he could find was that perhaps the young boy had never undressed in front of anyone and hence he was too shy and introverted.
He really needed to change this in the future but right now, also he needed to do what was needed.
However, the old master didn't respond to Gu Li's words. He merely said
"Leave, Gu Li. I am here to take care of him"
The helpless Gu Li sighed and could only leave with an expressionless face though his heart was full of worry.
He could only trust his master.
