Chapter 70 Illness



After Yingchuan was dismissed from school, Xie Jingcheng walked out of the school gate and saw the car in the distance. As expected, he saw Chaochao in the car.

"Hi!" Chaochao greeted happily, "I've come to pick up my brother from school."

"Hmm." Xie Jingcheng smiled slightly and sat in the back seat.

"Um," Chaochao stammered, "did Brother Jingcheng see Brother Yuci today?"

What she really wanted to ask was whether Brother Yu Ci had returned the umbrella.

Chaochao had thought it over; she only wanted to lend it to her brother for a while, she hadn't said she was giving it away.

Yes, that's right.

Chaochao looked at Xie Jingcheng expectantly.

Upon hearing the name Yu Ci, Xie Jingcheng frowned slightly, but still replied, "No, I didn't see him today."

“Ugh…” Chaochao sighed in disappointment.

Xie Jingcheng raised an eyebrow: "What's wrong?"

Chaochao just shook her head wearily.

Seeing her suddenly become dejected, Xie Jingcheng didn't know why, but he still took out his phone.

One minute passed.

Xie Jingcheng looked at his phone and said, "Yu Ci didn't come to school today, and the teachers don't know what's going on."

Xu Yizhou said it.

He heard it from the teachers when he was being reprimanded in the office.

"Huh? What happened to Brother Yu Ci?"

Chaochao suddenly raised her head, her little eyebrows furrowed with worry.

Xie Jingcheng: "I don't know."

The little dumpling looked at him quietly, its dark, grape-like eyes seemingly misty with tears, looking pitiful.

Xie Jingcheng: "..."

After a while, he got the address from the teacher.

The car started, but instead of going home, it headed towards Yu Ci's house.

Yu Ci's home is on the fifth floor, and there is no elevator.

Chaochao first climbed three floors by herself, but when she couldn't climb any further, she agreed to let Xie Jingcheng carry her.

She was very nervous going upstairs; this was her first, no, her second time visiting someone else's house.

And she'll be able to find her beloved Peppa Pig soon!

Chaochao's eyes sparkled with excitement and joy.

However, no one answered when Xie Jingcheng knocked on the door.

Three more knocks were made, but there was still silence.

Xie Jingcheng's eyelids twitched. "Yu Ci?"

No one answered the door.

The excitement of meeting the pig suddenly cooled, and Chaochao looked anxiously at the closed door.

Finally, Xie Jingcheng called the property management and explained the situation. After verifying that Xie Jingcheng was indeed the owner's classmate, the property management agreed to give him the key to open the door.

More importantly, there's a little baby staring at you expectantly.

The property management company simply couldn't take it anymore.

When the door opened, the boy was seen curled up on the sofa, his lips were white, and his pale face had an unnatural flush.

Its eyes were tightly closed, with only its trembling eyelashes indicating that its owner was still breathing.

Chaochao's eyes widened.

"Brother Yu Ci, what's wrong?"

She rushed to the sofa, at a loss for what to do.

Xie Jingcheng brushed his half-dry hair and unwashed clothes, vaguely realizing that he must have caught a fever from being caught in the rain.

He immediately said, "Take him to the hospital."

"No... I'm not going..."

The person on the sofa spoke weakly, their voice hoarse, but they didn't seem to be awake.

"I'm not going to...the hospital..."

He murmured again, then fell silent, clearly having completely passed out.

Xie Jingcheng frowned, remained silent for a moment, and finally contacted the driver to go to the nearest pharmacy to buy medicine.

You can't expect people to lie on the sofa all the time.

Xie Jingcheng took a deep breath, took off Yu Ci's still damp coat, and carried her directly to the master bedroom bed.

As Yu Ci was being taken away, something slipped from her hand and rolled to Chaochao's feet.

Chaochao recognized her at a glance.

That's her Peppa Pig umbrella!

But at this moment, Chaochao was very conflicted.

Even when Yu Ci is asleep, he lies next to the umbrella, which shows how much he likes it.

He loved this umbrella even more than she did!

Although she only sent it out for one night, Chaochao firmly believed that her Peppa Pig friend had such great charm.

Chaochao touched the umbrella with affection, looked at it deeply with complicated emotions, and finally made up her mind to place it solemnly on the coffee table.

Since Brother Yu Ci likes it so much, let's just give it to him.

At that time, Xie Jingcheng had already come out of the room and told Chaochao to find a place to sit first, and then go into the kitchen to boil water.

Chaochao was worried about Yu Ci, so she went into the bedroom and secretly took a look.

Yu Ci was already burning up and unconscious, lying on the bed, lifeless, like a lifeless statue.

Fortunately, he still made some noise.

Yu Ci's jaw trembled, and a single syllable unconsciously escaped from between his lips.

"cold……"

It is so light that it almost dissipates into the air.

Yu Ci was only covered with a cotton quilt at this time.

For Young Master Xie, sending the person to bed, taking off their shoes, and covering them with a blanket was already the biggest concession he could make.

Chaochao heard it.

cold?

Chaochao straightened up and looked around the room. When she saw something, her eyes lit up, and then she said softly, "Brother Yuci, wait for me a little while, it will be warm soon."

Chaochao heave-hooked a thin blanket from the wardrobe, covered Yu Ci with it, and then ran around the bed once before finally spreading it out with great effort.

"Is Brother Yu Ci still cold?"

"cold……"

Chaochao: Received!

Then the little dumpling dragged over a thin blanket, ran around the bed on its short legs, and asked again, "Are you still cold?"

After a while, she heard "cold..."

Chaochao: Okay, got it!

Then the system watched as Chaochao ran back and forth between the bed and the wardrobe, piling up blankets, quilts, and down jackets. The little boy was so active that his white face was covered in sweat.
