During the time Ethan Bennett was in Penglai Villa, although Blake Harrison had been showing signs of catching a cold, he had a good physical condition and had not suffered from any other illness except blindness. Typhoid fever and cerebral fever were rare. On the night of the Lantern Festival, Blake Harrison suddenly caught a cold and returned home in a state of confusion and paleness, which really scared Ethan Bennett. However, after two days of recuperation, he returned to normal.
When Ethan Bennett later examined Blake Harrison's pulse, he felt that the evil cold in his body was growing. He discussed this with Xu Jianqing and the others, but they were all confused. Blake Harrison did not show any abnormalities on the surface, so he had to leave it aside for the time being. He just prescribed some warming and nourishing food and medicine, and added some fumigants and bath medicines to dispel the cold.
However, Ethan Bennett couldn't help feeling a little worried. Jiang Zhuxing was not with Blake Harrison now, so he stayed in Zhaixing Tower most of the time, trying to take care of Blake Harrison as much as possible.
Blake Harrison's eyesight gradually improved. He was a person who liked quietness, so he thought of giving some money to send Xu Jianqing and the other three away. But they were reluctant to leave. Apart from feeling a little homesick, they lived a comfortable life here, had an easy job, and received high wages. Moreover, as long as they waited until Blake Harrison recovered his sight, they would be considered to have made great contributions, and their future medical practice would have a reputation that would be a lifelong topic of conversation. How could they give up halfway?
Although Blake Harrison was also concerned about the presence of too many people, but thinking of the fact that those people had contributed to the disaster relief in Huaibei, and fearing that Ethan Bennett would be too busy alone, he let them stay.
