Chapter 779 Sanji (14)
"So warm."
Yun Ci was soaking in the bathtub contentedly. When she was about to take some preventive medicine, her hand suddenly stopped.
"Get ill……"
What is it like?
Come to think of it, she hasn't ever been seriously ill.
When I read novels before, there were also some small episodes in which the relationship became warmer due to illness. This time...
Yun Ci's eyes turned and she made a decision.
I won’t take the medicine anymore.
If you are sick, that's good.
It doesn't matter if you don't get sick.
'Boom thump—'
"Miss Yunci, the hot soup is ready."
Yun Ci turned over, causing the sound of water splashing.
She lay down beside the bathtub and wrapped herself in a towel.
"Mr. Sanji, you can come in."
The shadow outside the door paused for a moment, then said "Excuse me" and opened the door.
In the rising heat, Yun Ci saw Sanji's tightly closed eyes.
He walked a little slower with the bowl in his hand, then stopped one step away from the bathtub.
Sanji squatted down and said, "Ms. Yunci, can you take it yourself?"
Because my eyes are closed, my hearing becomes clearer.
Sanji listened to the sound of water, his Adam's apple rolling up and down, and then his hand felt lighter.
A few drops of water fell into his palm as the bowl was taken away.
Sanji clenched his hands subconsciously.
A swallowing sound was heard.
There was not much soup, so Yun Ci sat by the bathtub and drank it slowly.
"Mr. Sanji, I'm sorry to bother you with cleaning up again."
Sanji let out an "ah" and spread his hands again.
The still hot bowl was placed in Sanji's hand with some force.
Then Sanji felt a familiar fragrance approaching, and his breath seemed to be right in front of him.
Sanji leaned back subconsciously, and then his feet slipped——
"not good!"
The bowl fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Then Sanji's clothes were grabbed, stopping him from falling to the ground.
Sanji opened his eyes subconsciously and met Yun Ci's eyes which were filled with some surprise.
When their eyes met, Yun Ci smiled helplessly.
"What are you hiding from? Me?"
Sanji denied without hesitation and stood up with the help of Yunci's force.
"I'm sorry, Miss Yunci, I..."
"Will you take responsibility?" Yun Ci said with a smile, "You said so last time."
She walked back into the water and sat down with her back to Sanji.
"Besides, Mr. Sanji doesn't think so."
"I won't accept a decision that is not made sincerely."
"Besides, I don't want to be with a man who doesn't like me."
Sanji stood there in a daze, opened and clenched his hands, finally said "sorry", and quietly left the bathroom.
"Hmm... After all this trouble, it seems that there is a high possibility that I will get sick..."
*
Yun Ci put on the clean clothes she took out from the space and walked out of the bathroom slowly.
Because of the previous ordeal, her head was a little dizzy at this time, her face felt very hot, but her body felt cold.
Yun Ci sat back at the table in the girls' dormitory, took out a pen and paper and started taking notes.
Her attention was drawn to the records, and she didn't realize that she was the only one left on the boat.
The Ice Channel is the base camp of the Flag Hunters, so it is not surprising that they found the hiding place of the Sunny.
However, there is no need to worry about the strength of Luffy and the others.
Yun Ci curled up in the quilt. The symptoms of nasal congestion made her feel a little uncomfortable. She could only breathe through her mouth and wipe her nose from time to time to clear the mucus.
She didn't know when she fell asleep, she just vaguely felt someone holding her and feeding her something.
Also, several quilts pressed together are really heavy.
But it's warm.
Yun Ci slowly opened her eyes and saw a beautiful head of orange hair.
Nami was sleeping on the side of the bed while Robin was sitting beside her reading a book. The coffee on the table was no longer steaming.
Yunci sat up gently, but Nami was not sleeping soundly to begin with, so even the slightest movement made her open her eyes.
"Xiaoci?"
"I'm sorry to have made you worried, but I'm fine now."
Yun Ci smiled gently and let Nami raise her hand to her forehead to test the temperature.
"I'll go get Chopper to take a look."
Robin put the book on the table, stood up and walked out of the room.
After a while, a series of footsteps came into the room.
"Xiao Ci!"
"Miss Yunci!"
The most useful Chopper was stuck at the back and had to squeeze through between Luffy and Sanji with great effort.
"Hey! You two! I'm the doctor!"
"Ah, sorry."
The two men gave up their seats, and Chopper went up and helped Yun Ci with some small checks.
"Well, the temperature has dropped a lot." Chopper warned, "But it hasn't fully recovered yet. It's better not to catch a cold before it fully recovers."
"Thank you, Dr. Chopper."
Chopper twisted his body awkwardly: "You should have a good rest. I will prepare another pill for you. You will get better faster after taking it."
After saying that, he ran out of the room with his short legs.
Zoro and Franky didn't stay in the room for long and returned to the watchtower.
Sanji went to help Yunci cook porridge.
Nami and Robin stayed in the room and chatted with Yunci, talking about what had happened before.
The Flag Hunters were hot on their heels, and they couldn't be so foolish as not to fight back, and in the end, they not only won, but also got their flag back together with the Phoenix Pirates.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't able to help at all."
"You've done us a big favor by helping us lure those penguins away! If it weren't for that, you wouldn't have been burned so badly."
but……
Nami scratched her face and said, "There is a little problem now."
Those Domon penguins surrounded the Sunshine in the sea, neither attacking nor leaving, which really put them in a difficult position.
"I asked them to help guard the ship." Yun Ci coughed a few times, "I'll go out and take a look."
"No! Chopper just told you not to catch a cold."
"It's okay for me to wrap myself up a little thicker. Besides, if we don't let the Domon penguins leave, we won't be able to set sail. Then we won't be able to leave this winter island waters forever."
"That's right..."
"Then put on more coats, and wear thicker ones."
Yun Ci obediently wrapped herself in three down jackets, a hat, scarf and gloves before she was allowed to go out.
She came to the side of the boat and took out large sacks one after another from the space, which contained the small fish and shrimps that she raised in the space, which were all overflowing.
"This is the reward." Yun Ci said to the penguins, "Come in batches, don't rush."
These penguins can only eat a few of the fish and shrimp that contain spiritual energy.
With the help of Nami and Robin, Yun Ci poured bags of fish and shrimp into the water. The Domon penguins were very conscious and when they had eaten their limit, they would lie happily on the water and float away to give their space to their companions who had not yet eaten.
There would be more fish and shrimps, not less. After the penguins finished eating, they called out to Yun Ci in unison a few times, then sank into the water and disappeared.
"Okay." Yun Ci smiled, "Now we can set sail."
Her lips were pale because of her illness.
The smile was very weak.
but……
Sanji's eyes were red.
Although it’s not a good idea to say this.
But the weak Miss Yunci is also so beautiful!
Ah! What a beauty! I can't take my eyes off her!
