The two men, who were calm and collected even when giving orders at home, were no different from any other ordinary parents at this moment.
Although they all attributed the cause to eating too much sugar, no one could guarantee that their guess was correct.
Toothache is truly an unbearable pain. Even someone as resilient as Xiao Anman had tears welling up in her big eyes in just a short while.
"Daddy~"
She lowered her hand that had been covering her face, grabbed Gu Tingxiao's collar, and spoke in a soft, helpless voice.
Gu Tingxiao was extremely distressed when he first saw Xiao An crying.
"Daddy's here. An'an, open your mouth and let Daddy see, okay?" Gu Tingxiao patiently coaxed her, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Because she's so pretty, even when she cries, the little dumpling's tears are beautiful and she doesn't look dirty at all.
Ouch, it really hurts!
The dragon cub, experiencing a toothache for the first time, reluctantly opened its mouth.
Helian Min and Gu Tingxiao both checked, and there was nothing unusual in the mouth.
The little dragon cub swallowed hard, feeling even more uncomfortable.
She whimpered in Gu Tingxiao's arms, not crying loudly, but with tears welling up in her eyes, which was especially heartbreaking.
Is there any way to treat this?
As a father, I can't bear to see her suffer, but unfortunately, all I can do now is watch helplessly.
Helian Min hesitated for a moment before nodding, thinking of the medicine she had given to Xiao Anman that had had no effect.
There are many ways to relieve pain, but out of concern for her health, Helian Min did not dare to use too much medication.
But seeing how much pain Xiao Anman was in, he had to consider whether he should try a different approach.
"Don't cry, An'an. It will be over soon, and the pain will go away in a little while."
Worried that the medicine would harm An'an's body, Helian Min chose to use needles instead.
I wonder if acupressure is as effective when a dragon's child becomes human.
The little dumpling, gently laid down on the bed by Gu Tingxiao, was still clutching his sleeve, just like when he first came to the Gu family.
Helian Min's needle technique is beyond doubt; it would not cause any pain whatsoever.
After a few needle pricks, Xiao An felt that her toothache was gradually easing.
She looked at Helian Min with her misty eyes; a thin silver needle, as fine as a cow's hair, was held between the boy's long, slender, and fair fingers.
Is An'an feeling any better now?
The little dumpling blinked, as if the pain had subsided.
"Daddy~ I'm all ready."
With a slight upward inflection, as Helian Min completely removed the silver needles, Xiao Anman touched the spot that had been in excruciating pain just moments before, but felt nothing at all, as if the pain hadn't been hers at all.
It was already past 2 a.m., and Gu Tingxiao felt his back was sweating because he was worried about Xiao Anman.
"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you don't hurt."
Gu Tingxiao was heartbroken when Xiao An suddenly shed tears.
Helian Mian carefully pinned the silver needles he had used back to the original gray cloth bag one by one, then glanced at Gu Tingxiao, who had completely lost his domineering CEO image. He felt that if Gu Tingxiao hadn't come up with a solution, he would have been kicked out of the house immediately.
"An'an needs to rest now."
The little one was in pain and discomfort, and this delay must have exhausted him. He should rest now.
