Qiao He felt very sad. She wanted to get out of bed to check on Bo Shiwu, but he was too weak to even get up.
Shen Huai hurriedly said, "Xiao Qiao He, don't get up. Don't worry, his condition is much better than yours."
"Besides, my elder brother is strong and healthy, as strong as an ox! You can rest assured!" Shen Huai said as he began to take Bo Shiwu's pulse and then prepare medicine for him.
Qiao He was still very worried: "Are you really alright? What if Bo Shiwu..."
Shen Huai was both amused and exasperated: "Really, it's nothing! You should lie down and rest. Don't you believe me?"
Qiao He chuckled and gently lay down. "I understand. Thank you, Chen Huai."
Shen Huai chuckled: "No need to thank me, we're just meant to be."
Is it fate?
Qiao He pondered the word carefully in her heart, and had to admit that sometimes fate truly is unpredictable.
While Shen Huai was busy administering an IV to Bo Shiwu, Qiao He heard the mechanical voice of the "Slacking Off System," which seemed to carry a hint of worry: "Host, you've finally woken up."
"Thank goodness, you're alright..." the dormant system murmured.
Qiao He smiled faintly, "Tongzi, I'm really surprised that you're worried about me, hahaha..."
The dormant system instantly reverted to its cold and ruthless state, its mechanical voice as indifferent as ever: "Oh, I wasn't worried about you, it's just that if you die I'll have to go find a host elsewhere. Do you know how hard it is to find a host these days?"
Qiao He was both amused and exasperated: "So how did you end up contacting me back then?"
The "Slacking Off System" said mysteriously, "As the saying goes, heavenly secrets cannot be revealed~"
Qiao He: "..."
Before long, Shen Huai finished dealing with Bo Shiwu. He looked at Qiao He with a smile and said, "Little Qiao He, you look so familiar. I don't know where I've seen you before."
Qiao He blinked. "I also think... could this be fate?"
Shen Huai stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "Hmm, perhaps so!"
"Alright, you need to rest more. I'll take care of Brother Bo. You should get some sleep," Shen Huai said gently.
But at this moment, no matter how tired Qiao He was, she couldn't fall asleep.
Because the thin fog was still thick and hazy...
At this moment, Lin Qiao's voice came from the monitor: "Ahe! You're alright? That's great... You're finally alright!" Lin Qiao's tone was very excited, and tears were streaming down her face, which moved Qiao He deeply.
She coughed lightly and said, "I'm sorry to have worried you, Mother-in-law..."
Lin Qiao wiped away her tears and said in a trembling voice, "It's alright...it's alright."
"But what's wrong with Xiao Bo? Why is he getting an IV drip too? Could it be...!" Lin's eyes widened, and he froze on the spot.
Qiao He whispered, "He caught it from me..."
Lin Qiao's heart tightened: "How could this be..."
Shen Huai smiled and said, "Oh, Grandma, don't worry, I guarantee he'll be fine."
"By the way, I'm starving right now, so what are we having for breakfast?" Shen Huai asked with a chuckle.
Lin Qiao felt like crying and laughing at the same time, and her mood was much better than before. "Ahe, what do you want to eat?"
Shen Huai said, "Oh dear, Xiao Qiaohe just woke up, she can only drink some porridge or something."
"Grandma, is there any food left at home? If not, I'll go out and look for supplies, or go hunting!"
"Don't let my skinny appearance fool you, I'm a skilled hunter!" Shen Huai waved his fist, radiating energy.
Lin Qiao smiled helplessly: "There's still some at home. What would you like to eat? I'll go and prepare it for you."
Shen Huai's mouth was watering. "I...I'm fine with anything! As long as I can eat it."
"Oh right, except for dog food!" Shen Huai said indignantly.
A question mark popped into Qiao He's head: What dog food? They didn't have any dog food at home, only some cat food...
Lin Qiao was amused by Shen Huai. She rubbed her wet eyes and then said, "Okay, I understand."
"Then I'll see what you're doing."
Shen Huai smiled, revealing a set of neat, small teeth: "Alright! I'm not picky about food~"
After Lin Qiao left, several cat faces appeared in the camera feed; they were cute but headless.
The little ones all wanted to squeeze in and talk to Qiao He, to see how their mom was doing.
However, the kittens squeezed together and eventually became a stack of kittens. Qiao He took one look and her heart almost melted.
So cute, babies...
Qiao He heard that the kittens were worried about her, so she spoke to them softly in cat language.
"I'm okay, really... My darlings, I'm sorry to have worried you."
"Mommy is really okay, don't worry too much."
Qiao Yin's eyes were brimming with tears, "You scared us to death! You have no idea how worried we were about you..."
Qiao He smiled wryly, "Sorry, my dear Yin Yin..."
"Mommy, if you encounter something like this again in the future, you must never run away alone." Qiao Li said silently, his beautiful cat eyes filled with worry. This was the first time Qiao He had ever seen such a worried expression in Qiao Li's eyes.
It has to be said that the kittens' expressions have become more and more like humans lately.
Although Job still couldn't recall his past memories, he knew that Qiao He was his master and his only mother!
So when Qiao He lay unconscious in bed, even on the verge of death, he was extremely anxious.
But even if you're anxious, there's nothing you can do...
Qiao Ju, Qiao Jin, and Qiao Hua were also very worried about Qiao He and started crying, which made Qiao He feel very sad. He didn't want the kittens to be sad and worried.
