Chapter 169: She Got A Fever!

Faint streaks of light slipped in through the gaps between the curtains. Heisuke was stirred awake. Opening his eyes, he found an enchanting view in front of him.

Hisaki was still sleeping. A few strands of her long hair stuck to her cheek, slightly shielding her expression.

Yes. Heisuke did sleep here, not leaving at all even after Hisaki had fallen asleep. But, it was not his original attention.

When he tried to sneak out, she unconsciously grabbed his shirt. Faint traces of fear were orchestrated on her expression, making Heisuke so reluctant to let her sleep all by herself.

Heisuke's brows wrinkled. Sensing something was wrong, he carefully brushed the strands away from Hisaki's face, feeling how high her body temperature was right now.

Did she have a fever?

When he traced his fingertips over her forehead, his skin came into contact with her sweat. The alarmingly high temperature of her body also startled him.
