Chapter 980: Chapter 980: Fainting
The man angrily slammed the door, leaving only the woman at the entrance, continuously knocking.
"Xuwen, you child, why don’t you ever listen!"
Hearing the woman’s various accusations from outside, saying he was not as good as his brother, not obedient.
Guo Xuwen angrily gritted his teeth, sat down at the computer desk, put on his headphones, and turned the music volume to the maximum, not wanting to hear her voice at all.
He didn’t know how long it had been, nor whether his mother had left.
Guo Xuwen, sitting in the room, perhaps due to his frustration, felt increasingly hot.
It was already scorching summer weather, and he didn’t know if the air conditioner was broken, but there wasn’t a hint of coolness at all.
The room felt like a sauna.
On the computer, in the live broadcast room, Jiangli had already finished the stream.
Guo Xuwen still stared fixedly at the computer, the more he recalled what Jiangli said in the live stream, the more anxious he felt, and sweat dripped off his body even more.
In no time, it was as if he had been washed with water.
The heat became unbearable for him.
Guo Xuwen felt around for the air conditioner remote on the table, anxiously adjusting it quickly, but the room’s temperature wouldn’t budge.
"Damn, this broken air conditioner is against me too!"
Guo Xuwen, with a darkened face, had his frustration peak, and he threw the air conditioner remote to the ground, where it shattered into pieces.
He acted as if he hadn’t seen it, turned to the closet, grabbed some clean clothes at random, and stormed out, intending to take a cold shower to calm down.
Outside the room, his mother was no longer there.
Guo Xuwen breathed a sigh of relief, quietly entered the shower, ready to bathe.
Standing under the showerhead, his inner frustration did not diminish but increased, turning off the hot water completely, leaving only the cold water, he turned on the shower, wanting to take a good bath and calm down before going to sleep.
He didn’t believe Jiangli’s nonsense...
He was just having a bit of bad luck recently, nothing that magical.
Liars are liars, only good at saying things to scare people!
Guo Xuwen muttered in his heart as the water from the shower fell on him.
The next second, he screamed.
"Holy shit, so hot!"
Scalded, Guo Xuwen jolted and hurriedly opened the shower door to rush out.
Though he moved quickly, he was severely scalded, the pain contorting his face.
He leaned sideways against the washbasin, looking at his back in the mirror, saw that his back was blistered from the hot water, red as if cooked, frightfully alarming.
In pain, his muscles twitched, he turned his head with difficulty, the shower room was steamy, and he gritted his teeth furiously.
He was sure he had turned on the cold water, yet even the water heater was against him!
Guo Xuwen was in unbearable pain, with no energy to think much, unable to continue bathing now.
He exhaled deeply, enduring the pain, quickly wrapped a towel around his waist, and left the bathroom, wanting to find some burn ointment.
Having just fought with his mother, he didn’t want to alert his parents, nor did he want to go to the hospital in the middle of the night.
Guo Xuwen, hunching his back, came out of the bathroom, rummaging for burn ointment in the living room, yet the pain on his back worsened, like drills piercing through the blisters, spreading into his bones.
The temples on his entire head throbbed, his body stiff and immobile.
He leaned against the TV cabinet, not returning to his senses, suddenly everything went black, and he thudded to the floor.
Hearing the loud noise, the Guo Family parents quickly exited their room, catching sight of Guo Xuwen on the ground, they were startled, screaming, and called for an ambulance.
