Chapter 2858: Chapter 48: Third Night’s Drinking Practice (10)

Ben Lucas, with his compulsive cleanliness, looked furious.

His cold, sharp eyes showed a hint of displeasure as he walked into the bathroom with a serious expression, washed his hands twice with hand sanitizer, and then returned.

Standing by the bed, looking at Harrison Lucas lying there, his face flushed and completely unaware, he turned his gaze to the two pills on the floor beside the bed, Ben Lucas decided not to care about the life or death of this clueless subordinate.

He walked to the other side of the bed, pulled up the blanket, and was about to turn off the light to sleep.

But once in bed, his deep, almond-shaped eyes involuntarily glanced over at Harrison’s slightly pouting lips.

He knew that when someone had a high fever and found it hard to breathe, they would part their lips like that to exhale.

His gaze, drawn by Harrison’s foolish yet eye-catching appearance, made Ben Lucas recall the times from his childhood when he lost his mother.

Alone at the Military Academy in B City, he wanted to learn everything about his mother, but couldn’t ask anyone.

During that time, the old man was very indifferent. Without his mother, he had no smile.

Beside young Ben Lucas, there was no one else, only his peer, Harrison Lucas.

He remembered it was also a winter like this, where the small him stubbornly practiced beyond what his body could take.

It was a snowy day, and the night after he came back from training, he developed a fever.

That night, it wasn’t until midnight that Harrison realized he was burning up with fever, but he was very stubborn then and did not allow Harrison to inform his father in A City.

That night, his forehead burned hot, but his body was very cold.

In the end, Harrison found antipyretic for him to take and held him while he slept all night.

He and Harrison, one could say they lived through relying on each other like this.

Ben Lucas’s cold and sharp eyes fixated on Harrison’s slightly open mouth...

After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly propped himself up, reaching his long arm towards the nightstand on Harrison’s side, picking up the cup and pills placed there.

The man took a decisive swig of warm water.

The hard lines of his jaw reflected a sexy light under the lamp.

Putting down the cup, Ben Lucas picked Harrison, who was fast asleep, back up.

He supported her head with one hand, opened her mouth with the other, and placed the pills inside.

Before Harrison had a chance to spit out the pills, he bent down to block that just-opened mouth.

Warm water flooded Harrison’s mouth, washing the bitter pills deep into her throat.

The antipyretic was a large, white, particularly bitter type, but strangely, when Ben Lucas’s thin lips touched Harrison’s lips, aside from the initial bitterness,

After which, his mouth was filled with a familiar, sweet scent.

He knew this was Harrison’s unique sweet aroma, the scent from the slightly effeminate body wash she liked.

Kissing Harrison, or rather performing necessary rescue measures on her, Ben Lucas’s brows furrowed tightly.

If Harrison was awake, she would certainly think that his furrowed brows were so tight they’d almost pinch a mosquito to death.

Feeling Harrison settle down after a slight struggle, Ben Lucas was about to pull away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his lips moved away a few inches, Harrison’s body slightly shook as if she were about to cough.

His cool, thin lips hastily covered hers again.

Simply blocking Harrison’s mouth like this didn’t seem to work; Ben Lucas, after struggling for a few seconds, parted Harrison’s lips, his long tongue seeking out and twirling around her small warm one.

The white pill stuck at the root of Harrison’s tongue rolled because of Ben Lucas’s action.
