Chapter 497: Chapter 497: Chicken Soup for the Soul

Su Man: “…”

She froze for a moment, then quickly turned around!

Finally caught up by embarrassment, she stammered, “You… you should change your clothes first. I’ll go back and bring our luggage and the map!”

With that said, she hurriedly left.

Lu Yuwen watched her retreating figure, looked down at the clothes in his hand, wavered for a moment, but finally, unable to stand the stale smell on his body, gritted his teeth and decided to take a cold shower!

…

The temperature, bearing the chill of early autumn, although not yet that cold, taking a cold shower was truly torturous.

After bathing, Lu Yuwen sneezed countless times.

Though he had cleaned up, his body was not okay. His head started to feel heavy and feverish. frёeωebɳovel.com

He knew it was bad. He quickly rummaged through the clinic, looking for cold medicine!

When Su Man returned with their luggage, she was surprised to see Lu Yuwen’s flushed face as he lay on the medical bed, “What happened to you?”

Didn’t we just disinfect the wound? And didn’t I apply the medicine? Why does it seem to be getting worse?

Lu Yuwen was at a loss for words.

Was he going to tell her that he’d been self-indulgent again and gotten sick from taking a cold shower?

In the end, his frail body wasn’t fit for survival in a world like this!

After taking the medicine, he felt exhausted. He weakly asked Su Man, “Did you bring the map back?”

“I brought it back.” Su Man handed it to him.

Lu Yuwen didn’t have the strength to take it. He glanced at the map in her hand and said faintly, “If I get better tomorrow, I’ll help you complete the rest of the map. This maze isn’t scary. As long as we complete the map square by square, in the correct order, we can find the correct route… If I can’t get better, you’ll have to complete it yourself, understand?”

Su Man reached out to touch his forehead and frowned, “Why the sudden fever? Did you take the medicine? I’ll get it for you.”

“I’ve taken it…” Lu Yuwen grabbed her hand, his voice hoarse from the fever, “It’s probably because the wound on my leg is inflamed, plus the chill… It won’t be better in a few days. If you can leave, leave as soon as possible and don’t worry about me.”

Su Man’s frown deepened, “I will surely take you out with me!”

Lu Yuwen shook his head, “…listen, I’m a cripple, my legs were bad to begin with. Staying in the maze is safer, you don’t need to take me out. Besides, I don’t like owing people favors…”

“So what if you’re a cripple?!” Su Man cut him off, her tone showing exasperation, “You’re just troubled with one bad leg, I know a woman who has two! But isn’t she still living well?! Not only is she living well, but everyone is also afraid of her! No one dares to provoke her! You have to buck up too!”

Lu Yuwen scoffed, “Thanks for the pep talk, but I can’t quite swallow it…”

“This is not pep talk! It’s a real story!” Su Man persisted, “She is far worse off than you, at least you can still walk. She can only use a wheelchair, even needs help to go to the toilet! But she has never given up and has passed many games! You shouldn’t give up, either!”

Lu Yuwen thought: How can someone in a wheelchair complete games?

Could she be a little more sincere when giving motivational speeches?

Forget it…

This girl was straightforward and kind-hearted, just trying to encourage him. Why should he dampen her spirits?

But seriously… being sick really felt awful.

Lu Yuwen closed his eyes, let out a weak sigh, and once again said faintly, “If I can get better, we’ll leave together; if I can’t, you should go by yourself. Like I said before… we were strangers, you don’t have to be dragged down by me, I don’t like owing people favors.”

He then stopped talking and closed his eyes to rest on the bed.

Su Man bit her lip, her mood gloomy as she watched him.

Were people with mobility problems always so stubborn?
