Chapter 34 34 The little monster has a lot of energy.
Xi Xi doesn't dislike Chen Yihuan; on the contrary, she quite likes this uncle who always makes her laugh and looks forward to him coming up with something new every day.
However, after waking up the next morning, he didn't see him at all. He asked Zhou Yi and found out that he was sick.
"That brat doesn't sleep well and likes to kick off the covers in the middle of the night. Even though it's summer, the air conditioning is on indoors, so it's hot and cold all the time. He developed a fever in the middle of the night, but luckily I found out in time." Zhou Yi scolded him, but in reality, she felt sorry for him and helpless.
Logically speaking, since Chen Yihuan had drunk the ginseng chicken soup last time, his resistance shouldn't be that weak, and he shouldn't catch a cold just from kicking off the blanket.
Xi Xi asked, "Grandma, did Uncle not drink the chicken soup with ginseng roots?"
“Yes.” Zhou Yi was even more annoyed. “That kid is a picky eater. He doesn’t like vegetables or soup.”
I don't know whose taste he inherited.
Chen Yihuan's picky eating problem has always been a headache for the Chen family. The older he gets, the pickier he becomes. When he stands with other children of the same age, he is shorter than them and is obviously malnourished.
Xi Xi was also shocked that there were people who didn't like to eat meat.
The little girl's brows were furrowed; it seemed her uncle was indeed quite ill.
Chen Yihuan's room was right next to the father and daughter's; he had stopped sleeping with his parents since he was four years old.
When it was time for lunch break, Xixi coaxed her father, Pei Yiyan, to sleep, then slipped out easily and went to the door of Chen Yihuan's room.
The room door wasn't locked; it opened with a gentle push. She slid in close to the wall and closed the door behind her.
The bedroom curtains were only partially drawn, making the area near the bed dimly lit. All that could be seen was a small bulge and the round back of a head.
Xi Xi tiptoed onto the bed. Chen Yihuan, delirious with fever, didn't even notice the bed sinking slightly and mumbled incoherently.
Xi Xi bent down and quietly looked him over.
Chen Yihuan had a cooling patch on his forehead, his thin face was as red as a monkey's bottom, and his hair was soaked with sweat, making him look rather pitiful.
He received an injection last night, and his temperature has dropped considerably. Zhou Yi didn't give him any more medication and planned to use physical methods to lower his temperature first.
It was 40 degrees Celsius outside and the air conditioning inside was 27 degrees Celsius. Sweating profusely and feeling stuffy would make him feel better, but for the pampered Chen Yihuan, it was too uncomfortable.
In his hazy state, he smelled the scent of grass and trees mixed with a hint of milk after the rain, a cool and refreshing aroma that soothed his soul.
As I smelled the fragrance, the heat that had been enveloping me vanished silently, and the dizziness in my head gradually subsided.
"Mother"
Chen Yihuan let out a weak call, forcefully opening his eyelids, and was caught off guard to meet a pair of dark, deep eyes.
"!!"
"What are you doing here? What are you trying to do?"
Startled, Chen Yihuan jumped up like a fish, but just as he was about to call for help, a soft little hand covered his mouth.
Mmm, it smells so good.
The owner of the little hand shushed her and sweetly comforted her, "Don't shout, Xixi is here to help you get better."
Treatment? Her? A tiny little thing?
Chen Yihuan didn't believe a word of it, his wide eyes filled with distrust.
Xi Xi blinked her eyelashes and said in a pleading tone, "I'll let you go, but please don't scream, okay?"
Although Chen Yihuan really wanted to ask the nanny to kick the girl out, he didn't, because the little girl smelled too good.
He wasn't sure if he was delirious from the fever, but he felt his body wasn't so hot anymore, and the discomfort of having a heavy weight on his head was disappearing.
Seeing Chen Yihuan nod, Xixi removed her hand with relief.
Chen Yihuan's words were still sharp: "What exactly are you here for? Are you trying to steal my toys while I'm sick?"
Even when the child was sick, he didn't forget his beloved toys, and would occasionally glance nervously at the large cabinet where the toys were stored.
Xi Xi puffed out her chest: "I don't want toys that other people have played with. Dad will buy me any toy I want."
She tilted her head slightly, puzzled: "Doesn't your father know how?"
Chen Yihuan's throat tightened.
His grandparents dote on him the most, followed by his mother. His mother never grants his every wish like his grandparents do; she only fulfills his small requests when she's in a good mood.
Chen Yihuan was deeply moved when his father asked his mother's opinion before buying him toys.
He pursed his lips and changed the subject: "Can you really cure diseases? Actually, if you admit that you're just bragging, I won't laugh at you."
In fact, he was already convinced that Xixi was exaggerating, and he couldn't wait for her to admit it so he could laugh at her and make her never dare to call him the King of Boasting again.
"Xixi never lies. Let me tell you, I can cure you with just a flick of my finger, and you won't get sick easily anymore."
Xi Xi's confident demeanor was quite intimidating.
After all, he was only five years old, and Chen Yihuan's attitude softened after a few words.
He looked at her with a hint of disbelief: "So how do you plan to treat me? Let me tell you, I won't give you injections! Nor will I take any bitter medicine."
Xi Xi, who had never been sick before, was puzzled: "The medicine isn't bitter, it's very sweet."
He Shouwu once broke off a piece of her own finger to help her grind her teeth. It tasted sweet and had a crunchy texture. After eating it, her hairs became much thicker!
Chen Yihuan dismissed Xixi's nonsense and impatiently urged, "Hurry up, or don't disturb my sleep."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a cool sensation on his forehead, and a flowing, shimmering green light was right in front of him.
Chen Yihuan's pupils trembled. He stared at the faint green light at Xixi's fingertip and dared not breathe. As the light entered, he felt a surge of vibrant power flowing through his body. His body, which had been weak due to the fever, recovered rapidly as if it had been parched for a long time.
He's cured and doesn't need injections or medicine anymore!
As soon as Xixi withdrew her hand, Chen Yihuan took a deep breath.
"You, you, you, you!" He leaned back, his hand trembling as he pointed at Xixi, his tongue tied in knots with excitement. "You're a witch! You know magic!"
The boy's emotions were filled with excitement and novelty at opening the door to a new world.
Xi Xi asked, puzzled, "What is a witch?"
"So you're someone who can use magic, just like me! You're a witch, aren't you? Don't worry, I promise I won't tell anyone!"
“Xixi is not a witch.” The little girl was somewhat resistant to the word, as witch was not a good word in the demon language.
Xi Xi puffed out her cheeks. She had cured his illness, and instead of thanking her, he was even scolding her.
well.
Mom is right. Men and children are the hardest to raise. All crows are black, and little boys are no exception.
Xi Xi, still angry, made a face at Chen Yihuan: "I'm ignoring you, you little crow."
"Hey, don't go!" Chen Yihuan cried out anxiously. "I know who you are now! You're not a witch, you're a fairy!"
Xi Xi paused for a moment.
Chen Yihuan was overjoyed; she really was a fairy from heaven!
No wonder she's not afraid of bugs; she's adorable from head to toe, and has such a sweet voice.
Xi Xi's mind was racing. She had promised her father not to reveal to others that she was a little monster. As long as she didn't admit to being a little monster, it wouldn't be breaking her promise, right? Besides, he said she was a fairy.
Xi Xi was happy, and her dimples appeared: "You just said you wouldn't tell anyone, can you keep your word?"
Chen Yihuan nodded emphatically and readily agreed: "Of course, a man's word is his bond."
"What does it have to do with you if it's a man's business?" Xi Xi shook her head, spouting strange and nonsensical things.
Chen Yihuan doesn't mind being teased by her at all now, and is even happy to talk to her more. Please, she's a fairy from heaven, a living fairy.
If she knows Ultraman, Iron Man, Spider-Man, or Thanos, maybe she can take him to meet them and get their autographs or something.
Chen Yihuan gazed at Xixi with bright, sparkling eyes, as affectionately as if he were looking at a meat bun.
"Fairy, could you..."
"Call me Xixi." Calling her a fairy would make her blush.
Chen Yihuan obediently changed his tune, rubbing his hands together like a fly: "Xixi, can you take me to meet Spider-Man?"
Xi Xi has a habit of taking a nap in the afternoon, and now she's yawning because she's sleepy. She didn't really think about what he said: "Aren't you scared?"
"No, no, no, Spider-Man is my idol. I really like him and am his loyal fan. I'm not afraid of him at all."
Chen Yihuan made repeated assurances, his bright eyes filled with expectation, almost as if he were swearing an oath to the heavens.
Seeing that he really liked it, Xixi bit her lip and reluctantly nodded: "Okay."
Chen Yihuan was overjoyed: "Do you need me to close my eyes?"
Xi Xi had already climbed out of bed and casually said, "Sure, this will make you even more surprised."
"Okay!"
"Xixi, are you done? Has Spider-Man arrived?"
"Here you are, open your eyes."
Chen Yihuan's heart pounded, and he couldn't wait to open his eyes.
A colorful spider, larger than Xixi's palm, suddenly came into view. Its eight hairy legs crawled slowly on his blanket, making a rustling sound.
“”
Chen Yihuan's mind went blank, and his heart stopped beating.
The next second, the child's shrill and terrified scream pierced through the roof.
Afterwards, Pei Yiyan severely criticized his daughter for running into the boy's room without permission and enlarging a spider to scare the patient.
Xi Xi felt extremely aggrieved: "He said he wanted to see Spider-Man and that he was a fan of his. I finally managed to catch one, but who knew he wouldn't like it."
The Chen family cleaned the house very thoroughly. To fulfill Chen Yihuan's wish to see the Spider King, Xixi went to great lengths to summon this beautiful giant spider.
Boys are so spoiled; she never wants to play with boys again.
Pei Yiyan:
My head hurts.
Perhaps he should tutor his daughter?
The next morning, Chen Yihuan dragged a large box to find Xixi. Xixi ignored him, so he quickly opened the box. Inside, there were colorful toys, many of which he usually wouldn't let anyone touch.
He raised his hand and waved it domineeringly: "These are all for you to play with."
Xi Xi pouted: "I don't want to."
Chen Yihuan hurriedly explained, "These are all new toys, not old ones!"
Xi Xi's eyes flickered, looking surprised and puzzled: "Then why give it to me?"
Chen Yihuan craned his neck and looked around to make sure it was safe before lowering his voice and saying, "You healed me, and I haven't properly thanked you yet. This is my token of gratitude."
Xi Xi was surprised, and the little knot in her heart dissipated.
The little monster is magnanimous and doesn't hold grudges against the spoiled boy.
"Okay, I'm not angry with you anymore."
"Great! Can you take me to play?"
Xi Xi readily agreed.
"Then can you take me to the sky? I want to fly!"
"???"
He's dreaming!
