Chapter 652: Innate Immunity

    

.And with Tang Yu at home, Zhu Xiaowei felt very reassured. Tang Yu was an extremely dedicated person, meticulous in everything he did. Moreover, Zhu Xiaowei discovered that even cooking, his culinary..."Today at noon, a sick wild man suddenly got ill and vomited all over me..."

Jo Baoer said with a complex expression, "I immediately asked Samba to fetch river water and wash off the filth on my body."

Lu Qinian and Lao Gui gasped in surprise.

"The patient's vomit is already contagious, the river water is contaminated, and you're still using it to clean" Lu Qinian stood up, exasperated and furious at her.

Jojo Bao'er was also nervous.

"...I, I should be fine." Her tone wasn't very sure either.

Her former neighbor, the wild woodcutter, also fell ill. She went to Samba's place and decided to check on him. Unexpectedly, she ran into him vomiting because of his illness. The wild woodcutter felt very embarrassed, but Qiao Baor didn't blame him. She immediately took river water to wash him clean.

She didn't think too much about it, and she didn't drink the river water directly.

She didn't know at the time that the patient's vomit was infectious.

"Stay away from me!"

Jo Baoer cried out.

Jun Zhimu stood three meters away from her, his deep eyes fixed on her. Anger, fury, heartache, and gritted teeth—a whirlwind of emotions flashed across his stern face.

Not daring to meet his eyes, Qiao Bao'er said in a low voice, "I, I will isolate myself in my own room tonight. I won't infect you."

"Who let you run around like that!" Jun Zhi Mu was both angry and anxious, striding towards her.

"Hey, stay back!"

qiao Bao'er immediately stepped back, her eyes blazing at him, her tone serious, "Jun Zhi Mu, you can't be sick."

This disease disaster is coming on strong, and if left untreated, the consequences will be terrible.

Of them all, Junzhi Mu absolutely could not fall ill.

She won't be a burden to him.

Jun Zhi Mu glared at her, and for the sake of the greater good, he didn't approach her any further.

His eyes were too sharp, Qiao Bao'er turned her face sideways, pretending to be nonchalant, and said in a flat voice, "I'm going to isolate myself in the room now. If I have any abnormalities, I'll shout. Don't barge into my room."

Saying that, Qiao Bao'er chose a less populated direction and ran far away.

Lu Qinan and the others seemed to have their minds suddenly blank, watching her swiftly running figure before slowly coming back to their senses.

"...That stupid Qiao Baoer!" Lu Qinian couldn't help but curse.

Lao Gui and the others were also a little worried in their hearts. Although they relied on themselves to survive in this deserted island, life and death didn't bring too much sadness, but human nature is always biased.

Their young master's wife fell ill. It wasn't just anyone, it was Qiao Baier. Her life was more precious than theirs.

Qiao Baoer was now completely subdued, hiding in her room and not daring to step out. The delivery person left the food at the door, and she ate alone, lost in thought.

Lu Qinian would come over whenever he had free time to chat with her outside her door, but Qiao Bao'er didn't pay much attention to him.

Zhu Xiaowei also came over and, through the door panel, inquired with concern about her health and whether she felt unwell.

"It's nothing, I just feel a little bored."

Qiao Baoer mumbled back, "Don't get too close to this room. With one more patient, you'll have one less person on hand and have to spend more effort taking care of them."

Zhu Xiaowei was unsure if her current state was truly good. According to speculation, if Qiao Bao'er had contracted a disease, she should have shown symptoms of abdominal illness by now.

Jo Bao'er had been confined to her room for seven days, her mind was starting to mold. If she were in a modern civilized society, she could at least connect to the internet and scroll through her phone. Now, she was truly under lockdown.

"Do you feel any discomfort" Someone would come to her door every day, right on time, to ask.

"No."

For seven consecutive days, Qiao Bao'er answered in this way. This answer made Jun Zhimu and the others feel fortunate but also puzzled.

Actually, Qiao Bao'er only needed to pass a three-day observation period before she could leave confinement. She herself didn't understand this condition, and Jun Zhimu, not trusting her, insisted that she learn how ancient women took small steps and did not go out large strides. Continue observing.

"...Next time you grill, remember to add some perilla leaves. They're purple with small white flowers and have a slightly pungent cilantro smell. They taste bitter but have a fragrant aftertaste..."

Qiao Baoer, surprisingly, didn't clamor to come out. She patiently waited for them to observe, afraid of infecting Jun Zhi牧 and the others. However, Qiao Miss, being true to her nature, couldn't help but complain a lot about her picky eating habits with disapproval.

Ms. Qiao requested an improvement in the food, finding the barbecue too greasy and not as tasty as Samba's.

"Also, for my daily fruit, I don't want cherry tomatoes, I want big rambutans."

The crab recording outside rolled its eyes, this woman is really not polite at all.

Yet whenever the crab came to inquire about her health, Junzhimu would stand by silently. Though he didn't speak, the crab understood and readily agreed, "Alright, I'll start delivering your meals tomorrow as you requested."

"How long do I have to quarantine for"

Even Qiao Baoer inside the house began to suspect that she had been under observation for too long.

The crab instinctively glanced at Jun Zhi Mu first. Jun Zhi Mu raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, and then, without changing his expression, held up two fingers.

The crab immediately had an epiphany and spoke, "Two weeks…" Before the character for 'week' even left his mouth, Jun Zhimu's eyes widened.

The crab was startled and quickly raised its voice, "We have to quarantine for another two months!"

"So long, two months!!"

Jo Bao'er had an opinion about the door.

The crab spoke to her in a calm tone, with a serious expression. “There’s no way around it. This illness has a long incubation period. Not only did you come into contact with vomit on your skin, but you also washed in river water. If the viruses or bacteria on your body reinfect us, that would be a big problem.”

For a long time, there was no response from the person in the room.

Qiao Baoer really wanted to slip out, but she was afraid of being scolded by them. She felt both ashamed and angry.

Outside the door, Junzhi Mu's lips curled into a slight smile, while Crab didn't quite understand why there was a sound of a chair being kicked over inside.

"Does she really have no symptoms at all"

In the evening, Jun Zhi Mu and a few others had dinner together and casually discussed Qiao Bao'er's situation.

Lao Gui and the others were all astonished. "She wasn't lying. We checked it out afterward, Qiao Baoer had vomited all over her arm with that filth. There were other wild people around at the time, and those who passed by also got sick. How come Qiao Baoer didn't show any symptoms for so long"

"Could she be in the room, enduring a stomachache without telling us" the monkey speculated.

Lu Qinan was the first to deny it, "I snuck out and peeked through the window with Zhi Mu. She's lively and spirited."

She, Miss Qiao, has been well-fed and rested during her isolation period, gaining a few pounds.

"This is amazing."

"That's unscientific."

Although they all hoped Qiao Bao'er hadn't contracted the illness, even passing wild animals were getting sick. "Could it be that Qiao Bao'er is immune to this disease"

They all frowned.

She, like us, has no vaccine. Where did she get immunity fromrdinary people do"Compared to Zhu Xiaowei's anxious and wary expression, Guan Lei picked up a napkin, wiped a smear of cream from her lips, glanced at her, and said, "It's your skill that you have Qia...
