Song Xiunian looked at him sideways and said thoughtfully, "Did you say when you'll be back?"
Shi Che shook his head, then added, "I probably won't see him for a year or two."
…
It was past ten o'clock, but there was still no sign of An Ci.
An Lan was getting impatient, so she put on her coat and prepared to go to the basketball court to look for someone.
Song Xiunian put the computer aside and said softly, "It's windy outside, I'll go. You wait at home."
As he said that, he walked towards the entrance.
Before my hand touched the doorknob, the door opened with a click.
An Ci put one hand on the door handle. Perhaps because of the strong wind outside, her hair was messed up and the red corners of her eyes were faintly visible.
"Dad." She lowered her brows and walked into the entrance to change her shoes.
Song Xiunian helped close the door, looked at the back of her head, and tacitly avoided mentioning the topic of Shen Mo. "Baby, are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
"I'm not hungry." An Ci changed into slippers, "Dad, I'm going back to my room to rest first."
An Lan heard the noise inside and walked out quickly. When she saw that it was An Ci who came back, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
As An Ci approached, she noticed that her face had turned pale and she looked worried. "Baby, you..."
"I'm fine." An Ci interrupted her, "Mom, I'll go back to my room first." Then she walked straight towards the stairs.
"Baby..."
An Lan followed her gaze, and was about to say something else when Song Xiunian stopped her.
He said, "Forget it, if she doesn't want to eat, don't force her."
An Lan leaned on his shoulder and sighed, "What should I do? Xiao Mo's departure is a big blow to Zi Zi."
Song Xiunian looked at the empty staircase and said calmly, "With time, everything will be fine."
He raised his hand and put his arm around her shoulders, "Have you talked to Dad about that?"
An Lan hummed, "I've already told Dad to let Zizi stay for two more days before leaving."
In the past, if An Ci had a few more days of vacation, she would definitely be very happy, but now she was not happy.
She tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
After a while, An Ci opened his eyes and stared at the envelope on the bedside table for a while, his eyes slightly sore.
"Damn Shen Mo." She cursed in a low voice.
He disappeared without a word, and when they met again she gave him a good beating.
She pulled the quilt over her head and curled up into a ball.
After being blown by the cold wind all night on the basketball court, An Ci suddenly developed a high fever in the middle of the night. She had a good physique and rarely got sick, but this time the high fever came on so violently that Song Xiunian and the others were scared.
Late at night, Villa No. 2 was brightly lit.
The doctor came out of the room, and Song Xiunian immediately went up to him and asked, "Doctor Li, how is the situation?"
Doctor Li said, "Thankfully, we found it in time and gave him a fever-reducing injection. He's fine for now."
Hearing this, Song Xiunian and Song Xi both breathed a sigh of relief. Song Xiunian sent Dr. Li downstairs and asked him a few questions about things that needed attention.
Song Xi walked quickly into the room and was stunned when he saw An Ci lying on the bed.
As far as she could remember, she had never seen her cub look so weak. His fair little face was abnormally red, his lips were as pale as water, his hair was slightly wet and stuck to his forehead, and he looked like he had been fished out of the water, lifeless.
The baby is so pitiful.
Song Xi frowned, her watery almond eyes showing a bit of heartache, and she walked closer with light steps.
"Mommy, how's the baby?"
"The fever hasn't gone down yet." An Lan sat by the bed, changing the cold towel on An Ci's forehead every once in a while.
"But he's been given medicine, so he should be fine."
Song Xi's gaze fell on An Ci's face and she whispered, "Mommy, is Shen Mo really not coming back?"
Others may not know, but she knows it very well. Her baby is very dependent on Shen Mo. When Shen Mo leaves, the baby is definitely the one who is least used to it.
An Lan replied softly, "Maybe."
Song Xi was helpless. The next second she suddenly remembered something and ran out of the room in a hurry.
An Lan's mind was on An Ci, and she didn't notice her for a moment. After a while, Song Xi ran back with the gift in her hand.
She placed it on An Ci's bedside table. An Lan saw it and asked in confusion, "Xiao Xi, where did you get it?"
"Shen Mo bought it for Zizi and asked Uncle Che to pass it on to Zizi." Song Xi explained, "Zizi didn't take it, so my cousin asked me to help get it back."
"When the cub wakes up and sees this, he should feel better."
An Lan looked at it, then looked at An Ci, and pulled her lip helplessly.
Seeing this, Zaizai must feel even more upset. After all, there is a saying that goes, seeing something reminds you of someone.
An Ci's sudden high fever kept the whole family busy all night. It was not until the morning when An Ci's fever subsided that Song Xiunian and the others dared to rest.
Undoubtedly, everyone got up late the next day.
An Ci was the first one to get up. She propped herself up and sat up. Her fever had just subsided, and her head was a mess and she felt groggy.
As she is good at medicine, she can know her physical condition without taking the pulse.
He had a high fever and fell into a coma. He was really getting worse and worse.
She laughed at herself, raised her hand and pressed her forehead, and saw something extra on the bedside table out of the corner of her eye, and looked slightly stunned.
yes.
She moved to the bedside, reached out to take it, lowered her head closer, and could still smell a faint sweet scent of strawberries.
An Ci's long eyelashes trembled slightly. After a while, she opened the packaging bag, took a bite and put it in her mouth.
Too sweet.
It seems not as delicious as before.
She pursed her lips, tore off another piece and put it in her mouth.
Just like that, she ate one bite after another until she finished the whole thing.
