With a bad feeling in her heart, Ruan Ning reached out to open the door.
Probably hearing the sound, Cheng Jikuan outside immediately said: “Ruan Ning, don’t open the door. I came here to tell you that Jili has a fever. It’s 38.2 degrees now.”
“She has been with you for the past two days, so you should pay attention to your body temperature at night.”
Ruan Ning frowned: “Has she taken antipyretics?”
“Just now.” Cheng Jikuan’s voice was a little muffled through the mask: “Her physical fitness has always been good. You don’t have to worry.”
Ruan Ning still felt that it was not that simple: “What about you? Are you okay?”
Cheng Jikuan replied: “It’s okay. But the time is short and we are not sure whether it is contagious. Let’s not meet during this period.”
“Okay.” Ruan Ning thought about it and made a promise: “Be careful and come to me if you need anything.”
After Cheng Jikuan left, Ruan Ning carefully recalled the details of the original book. It was easy to spread diseases in heavy rain and humid environments. The book did describe many people having fever, and some even died because of it.
The only thing was that the timing didn’t match, but no one knew how the disease was spread, so it was hard to say whether it matched or not.
She hoped that Cheng Jili could get through it safely.
Ruan Ning sighed and took out a bunch of grapes and an apple from the space.
She decided yesterday to start eating dinner every other day starting tonight, otherwise, it would be a joke if everyone else became skinny, while she gained weight.
At around 8 o’clock, just as she was about to continue watching the drama, the living room window was hit by a small object again.
Ruan Ning knew that the old man had come back in the dark, so she took out a mask from the space, put it on, and left the house.
After thinking about it, she opened the corridor window a little and stood a little further away.
Compared to last night, the old man was obviously much more energetic, with bright eyes: “Girl, open the lock quickly. I will return the boat to you.”
When Ruan Ning took the rubber boat, he said with a beaming face: “That’s good. We found food, at least, it can last for a week!”
Ruan Ning was also happy for him. After thinking for a while, she asked, “Are you still living with those people from the Self-Help Association?”
The old man was immediately disdainful: “How is it possible? How could I stay with Wu Jin’s men? I delivered supplies to the 17th floor and lived in their house.”
Ruan Ning: “That’s good.”
The old man sighed: “I just feel sorry for the other old guys. Wu Jin will definitely not let them have an easy time.”
After sighing, the old man suddenly asked curiously: “Girl, why are you wearing a mask?”
“Someone on our floor has a fever.” Ruan Ning said: “The situation is unclear now, so you should also pay more attention.”
The old man’s face changed: “Why is there a fever? If this is an infectious disease, how many people will die?”
Ruan Ning didn’t say anything.
The old man’s eyes became listless again: “What happened to God? How is your sick person? Is he having a high fever?”
Ruan Ning replied: “It’s over 38 degrees, so it should be fine for now.”
“Thirty-eight degrees.” The old man rolled his eyes and said, “Girl, it’s hard to find a doctor when you’re sick now. I just happen to know an old doctor who is still in this building.”
