After everyone had left, Shen Man was about to close the door.

But he saw the man opposite, striding out with a child in his arms, Gu Qinglin's face full of anxiety.

Behind them, Aunt Yu was holding a piece of clothing and running after them, looking extremely anxious.

"Clothes, put clothes on the child, don't make things worse."

Shen Man's heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad feeling. She didn't care about avoiding suspicion or anything, and chased after him.

Unfortunately, the other party walked too fast.

She couldn't catch up at all, so she could only pull Aunt Yu to ask, "Aunt, what happened to Xiaobei?"

"Comrade Xiao Shen, tell me about this child. He had a mild cold today and didn't seem to be serious. But in the evening, he suddenly developed a high fever, and it was so serious."

"I just touched his forehead and it was so hot. Luckily Qinglin was there, otherwise I would have been alone at this late hour and there was no way I could have taken the child to the hospital."

Hearing that the child was so badly burned, Shen Man panicked, but she still had a bit of rationality left. She forced herself to calm down, found a bicycle and rode after him.

The nearest hospital was a long way from here, even if it took some time to get there by bike. Gu Qinglin walked there carrying the child, but it was definitely not as fast as her.

She had to hurry after them.

Not long after, Shen Man finally caught up with Gu Qinglin, who was holding the child, and said, "Come here with the child in your arms. I'll take you to the hospital."

After hearing this voice, Gu Qinglin's hurried steps slowed down a little, and he looked up.

Then he saw Shen Man riding a bicycle and stopped beside him.

Gu Qinglin glanced at the other's overly slender body and handed the child to her, "You hold the child, and I'll ride the bike."

Shen Mangu didn't think too much and got out of the car subconsciously, picked up the child in her arms, and let Gu Qinglin get in the car.

In the autumn nights, the wind is still cold, blowing on people's faces, causing biting pain.

Shen Man's face turned slightly pale, but she still used her body to protect the child in her arms, not letting any cold wind hurt the child.

Xiaobei was apparently very active and healthy yesterday, holding onto her sleeves and calling her "Auntie" so sweetly. But less than a day later, he was lying in her arms, sick and running a high fever.

Gu Qinglin silently adjusted his body posture to block the cold wind blowing in his face.

The wind has died down a lot and it's not that cold anymore.

Shen Man looked up and saw that the man's broad and strong back had already shielded her child behind him without her realizing it.

She took a sip, and a surge of emotion surged in her heart.

Not long after, we finally arrived at the hospital.

Gu Qinglin took the child from Shen Man's arms and said, "I'll take the child to find a doctor."

After saying that, he ran directly into the hospital carrying the child, and Shen Man followed him trotting all the way.

After medical examination and treatment, Gu Xiaobei's forehead was no longer so hot, but to be on the safe side, he still had to stay in the hospital bed for observation for one night.

The three-year-old child, a tiny ball, was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, and was in a coma.

Shen Man sat in front of the hospital bed, holding the child's hand and lowering her head to her forehead, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart, and her eyes turned red unconsciously.

Xiaobei, it's all mommy's fault. Mommy was busy with class and didn't come to see you today.

Please wake up soon, mom will stay with you.

Gu Qinglin stood behind her and watched this scene, feeling a little uncomfortable.

He has been busy with tasks outside these days and has been ignoring the child. Xiaobei is very sensible and has never disturbed him since he was busy.

If it wasn't for Aunt Yu who discovered that something was wrong with the child tonight, I don't know what would have happened.

As a father, he is indeed unqualified.

At this time, Gu Xiaobei was mumbling something incoherently, his eyes were red and tears were falling uncontrollably, he looked so pitiful.

Shen Man went over to listen, and could tell that he was calling Mom, Dad, and Xiao Nian...

She quickly held the child's hand and said, "Mom is here, don't be afraid, Xiaobei. Mom is always here."

Gu Qinglin held Gu Xiaobei's other hand, his eyes were a little sad, and his voice was hoarse, "Dad is here, Xiaobei needs to get better soon."

He had lived for more than 20 years without ever getting married or having children, yet suddenly he had a child like this.

From the initial shock and bewilderment to the subsequent habit and pity, it was as if this child was born from his own eyes, and he gradually developed deeper and deeper feelings for him.

He couldn't imagine what he would do if the child suddenly disappeared.

The two of them stayed by the bedside for most of the night, and Gu Xiaobei's high fever finally subsided a little.

It was getting late outside, so Gu Qinglin looked down at his watch. It was already two o'clock in the morning.

He picked up the woman who was lying beside her child's bed and gradually falling asleep.

The moment he held her hand, Gu Qinglin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked down at the woman in his arms.

The slender and soft waist seems to be as thin as a hand.

Her fair and tender face was charming and extremely pretty, with a faint floral scent emanating from her body.

He felt that the person in his arms was extremely thin, as if she had not eaten much, especially her waist, which was extremely slender.

Gu Qinglin sighed, put Shen Man on the empty bed next to him, and covered her with the quilt.

After finishing all this, Gu Qinglin sat beside Gu Xiaobei's bed, quietly watching over the two, one big and one small.

Early the next morning.

Shen Man woke up and looked around subconsciously. The child was still lying on the bed, a small ball covered under the quilt.

She quickly got out of bed and touched Xiaobei's forehead, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the high fever had subsided.

At this time, Gu Qinglin came in with a hot water bottle, an enamel basin, a towel, and a brush. He poured some hot water into the basin, adjusted the water temperature, and then placed these in front of Shen Man.

"Go wash up first. I'll go buy you some breakfast. After breakfast, you'll still have time for work."

Shen Man raised her hand and touched her hair. It was a mess after a night's sleep. She probably didn't look very good now.

She took the handkerchief somewhat uncomfortably, "Thank you."

Unexpectedly, this person was so thoughtful that he even prepared a comb and a small mirror for her.

Gu Qinglin noticed her discomfort, glanced at her slightly lowered head and messy hair, smiled, then turned around and went out to buy her breakfast.

When he came back again, Shen Man had already washed up. She was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday.

Last night, Gu Qinglin was inconvenient to take off her clothes, so she slept in this dress. After a night, the clothes had a lot of wrinkles.
