Chapter 104

Kevan ended up going with her. During the cable car ride down the mountain, Larissa was not in the

mood to think about how Kewan had conjured up the money for the ticket, nor was she in the mood to

appreciate the majestic and magnificent scenery surrounding her. All she cared about was

“You haven’t eaten anything for a whole day. Can you take it? It’s so windy on the mountain, but you’re

wearing very few layers. What if your fever comes back? You haven’t fully recovered, so you’re still

weak. How are you going to drive later? How about you take the cable car back up again later? Go

back to the hotel and eat, then take the whole day to res! –

“That’s enough!” Kevan couldn’t take it any longer and cut her ofl. “I know my own body.” He liked her

nagging and muttering, as well as her care and sweet voice, but not when she was trying to chase him

away. He crossed his arms and leaned against the corner of the cable car. He shut his eyes as if he

didn’t want to listen to her.

Larissa shut her mouth tactfully.

The cold shower he had taken at the hotel seemed to be taking effect. Kevan’s head felt heavy again

and a chill spread through his body. The cable car was an enclosed space, but gusts of wind still blew

in from the gap in the window, making him shiver. His thin coat almost didn’t help at all, and he hugged

himself tighter, His teeth chattered so violently that the sound assaulted his eardrums.

Larissa had been keeping watch on him the whole time, and she noticed his condition at once. “What’s

the matter? Are you cold?” She sat closer to him, took off her jacket, and wrapped it around him.

A faint scent of lemons filled Kevan’s nose and he suddenly felt warm. He opened his eyes to find

Larissa looking anxious and concerned.

“Yes,” he said with a nod. A cable car ride lasted about forty minutes, and they had just boarded not too

long ago.

“We need another thirty minutes to reach the bottom. Hang on.” Larissa couldn’t do anything other than

console him that way. She adjusted her position and tried her best to shield him from the gusts of wind

that blew in from all directions.

Larissa was only wearing a thin sweater which obviously wasn’t enough to fight the cold. Kevan

returned her jacket and said, “Put it on.” His tone brooked no argument.

“I’m not cold.” said Larissa and immediately sneezed loudly. Kevan suddenly regretted it. If he had

known that she would leave so soon, he wouldn’t have gotten himself into trouble and dragged her

down with him.

He cast her a sideways glance. “You’re not cold?” he teased.

Larissa wiped her nose with a tissue with an awkward expression. She forced a smile and said, “My

immune system is strong. Some cold wind won’t do me any harm, but you mustn’t catch a cold.” She

wrapped her jacket around him again while speaking and pulled his collar up to his chin, leaving only

his pale face exposed.

Kevan tried to reluse, but she held him down.

“Can you just listen to me for once?” she said helplessly.

Kevan went blank and nodded. A moment later, he looked at his feet sulkily, but some color had

returned to his face.

He had stopped acting up, but Larissa did not dare to relax at all Earlier, she had been too caught up

with leaving and forgot to put the thermometer and his medicine into her handbag. Hence, she could do

nothing at the moment except feel anxious.

“Are you burning up?” she asked.
