A pot of ginger water was soon done and Elvis scooped a small bowl for Gu Mengmeng.
After Gu Mengmeng drank a bowl of ginger water, she felt much better. She pushed the bowl to Elvis and asked him to drink one bowl to warm himself up. Elvis hesitated, this was the medicine for Gu Mengmeng, how could he eat it?
Gu Mengmeng smiled and said, “these two slices of ginger can boil with water for the entire day, just add in snow when we finish drinking.”
Gu Mengmeng promised over and over again that the ginger in the cave could last her the entire winter before Elvis reluctantly tried a bowl too.
This was the sweetest thing he had tasted in the entire world. A feeling called happiness spread across his entire body.
Gu Mengmeng, having finished the ginger water, fell back to sleep again. In her dreams, she was back to the bed in her college dormitory, the white bear plushie was smiling at her at the bedside. She hugged the bear and forcefully rubbed her face against the fluffy bear, before riding the bear to sleep in satisfaction.
On the other hand, the reality was: Elvis was supposedly sitting at the bedside, but Gu Mengmeng pulled the hide dress Elvis was wearing onto the bed, the dress was then thrown aside, while Elvis was in her arms, all naked. He stiffened and did not dare to move at all, afraid that he might cause the slightest discomfort to the sleeping Gu Mengmeng.
It was dark in the cave, time almost left no trace in here. The snow had blocked off the entrance completely, Gu Mengmeng and Elvis did not even know whether it was day or night outside.
Gu Mengmeng was unsure of how long she had slept, but the fever had subsided when she opened her eyes again, while she was clamping onto Elvis like an octopus..
Gu Mengmeng thought, if she let out a scream now, take back her hands and then make a false accusation, would it be less embarrassing?
The answer was negative. There were a few more months ahead where she was going to spend alone with Elvis, if she gave this reaction now, the coming days would be even more awkward.
So, should she be like Princess Jianning whom once slept with Wei Xiaobao, hugged him in her arms and say, “You are my man from today onwards, I will treat you well”?
Observing Elvis’s build, Gu Mengmeng decided that it might be a little difficult to fit him into her arms…
When Gu Mengmeng was still in a dilemma to which way she should react to the present awkward situation, Elvis opened his mouth first, “Aren’t you thirsty? I will go fetch you a bowl of ginger soup.”
“Uh… Yes yes, sure.” Gu Mengmeng nodded her head, her eyes darted around and dared not to look at Elvis, embarrassed.
Elvis kissed on her forehead before saying, “You have to let me go first before I can get it for you.”
Gu Mengmeng suddenly realized she was still snuggling to Elvis’s body, she bounced backwards as though she was electrocuted and wrapped herself up with hide tightly. Looking at Elvis calmly going to get the soup, Gu Mengmeng cleared her throat, laughed dryly and explained, “My sleeping posture is not too decent, especially during a fever, my brain was in a mess… I am usually not like this, Really…”
Elvis walked back with the soup, blowing it and brought it to Gu Mengmeng’s mouth. He smiled gently, not saying a word.
Gu Mengmeng was indeed thirsty, she took over the ginger soup and took a big mouth, before pushing the bowl back to Elvis. But Elvis just touched her lips lightly, wiping away the wet stain, and he said gently, “Your sleeping posture is good, you drooling was so adorable.”
