Xiao He was completely panicked at this point. Hearing the busy tone on the phone, she said, "This, this won't do. If the fever is 40 degrees Celsius, won't it burn the person to death?" As she spoke, she ran to call Ye Tingjun.
Hearing Xiao He's words, Ye Tingjun was also somewhat worried, as Fang Lanlan was someone he had watched grow up. He couldn't let her get sick at home during the New Year.
Jianxiao started listening from the moment Ye Yizhou answered the phone. At that time, Fang Lanlan was neither coughing nor weak, so he looked at Ye Yizhou and asked, "Xiaozhou, did Fang Lanlan cough or feel weak when she was talking to you?"
Ye Yizhou had just finished the phone call and naturally remembered: "No, that's strange. My sister was perfectly normal when she was talking to me, but why did she start coughing as soon as Mom answered the phone?"
Xiao He knew that Fang Lanlan never lied, but her youngest son didn't lie either. So what was going on? At this moment, she was also a little confused.
Ye Yifan knew that Fang Lanlan was faking it, completely faking it, because when he answered the phone, Fang Lanlan's tone was full of energy, without a trace of illness.
So Ye Yifan also wanted Xiao He to see through Fang Lanlan's tricks. He said to Xiao He, "We don't know how Fang Lanlan is doing now. Although I hate her, I can't let her get a high fever and die. If it's really 40 degrees, she'll either die or get pneumonia. So let's go back and check on her. I have a car, so it's convenient. Grandpa and Xiao Zhou won't have to go through all that trouble. You can just wait for news at home."
Ye Jianxiao actually knew that Fang Lanlan was faking it, so he naturally supported his grandson in verifying the matter: "Then Xiao Fan, take your parents back to see her, and we'll be at ease. Although we don't like Fang Lanlan, we can't let anyone die, or things will get really serious."
Ye Tingjun saw that his father had said this, and that he had been an official for many years and had a good career, so he couldn't let something like someone in the family die.
So he felt he should go back.
The three people changed their clothes and quickly went out.
Ye Yifan drove the car, with Ye Tingjun and Xiao He sitting in the back. They soon arrived at Ye Tingjun's house.
At that moment, many children in the neighborhood were setting off firecrackers, creating a lively and exciting atmosphere.
Looking up from downstairs, they saw that all the lights upstairs were on, so they quickly went upstairs.
Once upstairs, Xiao He opened the door. The sound of firecrackers downstairs drowned out the sound of the door opening, so Fang Lanlan didn't know they were back. She guessed that Xiao He might come back soon, but she didn't expect it to be so soon. After all, she didn't expect Ye Yifan to drive them there.
So at this moment, Fang Lanlan had just boiled water, sat on the sofa, laid out the medicine, and then put a thermometer in the water glass, adding hot water to control the temperature of the thermometer.
She was holding three hot water bottles, trying to raise her body temperature as quickly as possible, and there was a hot towel next to her, which she would use to raise the temperature of her face as well.
Just as she was busy with something, she felt something was wrong. She looked up and was stunned to see Xiao He staring at her in utter astonishment.
Xiao He was stunned. She could tell that Fang Lanlan was up to something, but she refused to believe it: "Lanlan, what are you doing?"
Fang Lanlan quickly explained, "Mom, I have a high fever from a cold, and my body is fluctuating between hot and cold. I was taking my temperature just now, and I accidentally dropped the thermometer into the water glass without seeing it. I was just pouring hot water. Thank goodness you came back, otherwise the thermometer might have exploded. I'm so clumsy."
Xiao He still wanted to believe Fang Lanlan's words: "Are you alright?"
Fang Lanlan quickly pretended to be weak again, coughing and saying, "It's okay, Mom. You should go back and spend the New Year with Grandpa. I'm fine." Then she coughed again.
Ye Yifan said to Ye Tingjun, "Dad, I think we should take her to the hospital. If she gets checked out, everyone will be at ease. Otherwise, if we keep causing trouble for the New Year, we won't be able to get through it. It's 10 o'clock now, and there are still two hours to welcome the gods. We can still make it to the hospital in time."
Ye Tingjun understood what her son meant: to go to the hospital and get a proper certificate from the doctor to properly examine Fang Lanlan's situation for Xiao He.
He said to Xiao He, "Quickly get Fang Lanlan dressed and take her to the hospital."
Xiao He went over to get clothes for Fang Lanlan: "Lanlan, hurry up and get dressed to go to the hospital. Your fever is so high, you can't not go to the hospital."
Fang Lanlan dared not go; she was perfectly fine: "Mom, really, there's no need. You should go back to Grandpa's house quickly. I've taken my medicine and will feel better after a nap."
Ye Yifan said firmly, "If a person has a fever of 40 degrees Celsius, then pneumonia is very likely to develop. If you don't go to the hospital and something happens tomorrow, we will all be responsible. If you want what's best for everyone and for everyone to have a peaceful New Year, then hurry up and get dressed and go to the hospital, unless you're faking it and are too scared to go."
Fang Lanlan was indeed faking it, but she couldn't admit it, so she could only put on her clothes and go to the hospital with them.
Ye Yifan drove well and arrived at the hospital quickly. He registered at the emergency room. On New Year's Eve, the emergency room was mostly for firecracker injuries or acute appendicitis. Other minor issues wouldn't be treated at this time.
After they entered the consultation room, Xiao He began to tell the doctor about Fang Lanlan's condition.
The doctor looked at Fang Lanlan, then asked her to open her mouth to check her throat. After listening with a stethoscope, he said, "No problem? This doesn't seem like the symptoms of a cough. Her lungs are fine, and her temperature isn't high. Are you sure she had a high fever of 40 degrees Celsius at home?"
The doctor was puzzled. It was the Lunar New Year, and no one would come to the hospital to argue unless there was something serious wrong, but this patient really didn't have any problems at all.
Xiao He looked at Fang Lanlan and said, "Lanlan, tell the doctor about your condition yourself."
Fang Lanlan's nervous speech was incoherent and full of inconsistencies. She would say that the cough lasted for one hour, then for two hours, then that she started coughing at night, then that she had just started coughing.
The doctor got annoyed by the end of the questioning because it was obvious the girl was lying. But the doctor still felt that it was the New Year, and she shouldn't come without a reason.
So he said to Xiao He and the others, "Let the patient wait on the chair outside the door for a while. I need to speak with the parents privately."
Xiao He was a little scared after being teased, so she asked Fang Lanlan to go out first, as she wanted to know about Fang Lanlan's condition as soon as possible.
Fang Lanlan went out with a heavy heart, giving Ye Yifan a fierce glare before she left.
However, Ye Yifan ignored her.
After Fang Lanlan left, Xiao He asked the doctor nervously, "Doctor, is my daughter seriously ill?"
The doctor frowned and said, "I suspect the patient may have a mental problem. Have you parents noticed her acting strangely lately? It's the Lunar New Year, and most psychiatric wards are closed. When they reopen on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, you should take the patient to see a psychiatrist."
After the doctor finished speaking, Ye Yifan almost burst out laughing. He thought he had to hurry to Hua Kai's house and tell her about this funny thing. He figured that girl would laugh for a long time.
