Seeing this, Sydney laughed, "You sneezed. You must be cold. Your lips are pale. Hurry up and put on the coat. Don't wear such thin and flamboyant clothes just to look nice again. It's chilly outside."
Being lectured by Sydney, Luke was a bit defiant. He didn't think his clothes were thin and flamboyant.
However, as he was about to retort, he sneezed again.
Luke bit his tongue.
He had to admit his clothes were thin.
In just a few moments, Luke sneezed twice in quick succession, and his nose became itchy as if something was going to flow out.
In order not to make a fool of himself, Luke stopped insisting and put the coat back on.
After that, he felt warmer and shivered less violently.
"Syd." Luke took out a packet of tissues from his suit pocket, pulled one out, and wiped his nose. "Are you still cold? If so, I'll let the hotel staff bring a coat for you."
"No need." Sydney shook her head and refused. "I'm fine. The car will be here soon, so it's okay. I don't want to change my clothes anyway. It's troublesome, but if you need it, borrow one from the hotel. After all, you look colder than me."
"I don't need it either." Luke straightened his back and said with a serious face, "I'm much better now."
He thought, 'I'm a man. I can't allow myself to be so fragile.'
Seeing Luke was so stubborn, Sydney shook her head resignedly. "Well, since you said so, don't regret it when you get a cold."
"I won't." Luke patted his chest. "I'm in good health. I definitely won't catch a cold."
As she heard his confident words, Sydney's mouth twitched, and she didn't say anything else.
At this time, the car finally came.
Luke's eyes lit up. He hurried down the steps and pulled open the door. "Syd, get in."
He waved at Sydney eagerly as if something was rushing him.
Sydney, who was familiar with Luke, knew that he was cold and wanted to get in the car, but he was too proud to admit it, so he had to hurry her up so that he could follow her in.
Otherwise, if he got into the car first, he would indirectly admit that he was cold.
Sydney shook her head in amusement. Without exposing Luke, she just rolled her eyes at him and walked quickly over to the car.
Soon after they got in, Luke leaned on the window drowsily with a red face, looking as if he was sick.
Seeing this, Sydney got worried. "Luke, Luke?"
She called out to Luke twice.
Luke opened one eye to look at her. His vision was a little blurry, and even his voice became slurred. "What's wrong?"
"Are you okay?" Sydney asked, sizing him up.
Luke nodded. "Yes. I'm just a little dizzy."
"Dizzy?" Sydney got nervous and asked, "Are you having a cold?"
Luke laughed, "Of course not. I'm in good health. How could I catch a cold?"
"I don't think so." Sydney frowned. "You stood at the hotel gate without wearing your coat. You might have caught a cold. Don't move. Let me check your forehead."
She stretched out her hand.
