Yuan Yuan seemed to sense her warmth and gradually calmed down.
The child's face was flushed, and his body temperature was alarmingly high.
Su Jingjing held the child tightly in her arms and gently wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
"Honey, don't worry."
Li Hanting comforted his wife, then got out of bed to look for a thermometer.
Yuanyuan catches colds frequently, so there's always a thermometer at home.
Su Jingjing took the thermometer the man handed her and quietly placed it under her daughter's armpit to take her temperature.
The seasons have changed, and despite all the precautions we take, we still can't prevent the virus from getting in.
The little guy is just too young and slow to react, so he can't explain why he's feeling unwell.
Parents see this and feel the pain in their hearts.
The little one slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw his parents in front of him, his eyes seemed to light up. He moved his little mouth and said, "Daddy, Mommy."
The two nodded in agreement.
Then Su Jingjing asked anxiously, "Baby, are you thirsty?"
Yuanyuan nodded sleepily. She didn't know she had a fever yet; she just felt a tickle in her throat and wanted to drink water.
"The thermometer is in your armpit, don't move around. Mom will get you some water."
Su Jingjing gave the man a look and then got out of bed and went to the living room.
The little one didn't understand why he needed to have his temperature checked again. He turned his head slightly to look at his father and asked, "Daddy, what's wrong with Yuanyuan?"
Li Hanting wiped the cold sweat from his daughter's forehead. "Baby, you have a slight fever. Let's take your temperature."
Although her daughter was sweating, she didn't dare to pull off the blanket on her body.
Yuan Yuan said "Oh," without seeming surprised, and nestled obediently in her father's arms.
If Mom says not to move around, then she won't move around.
With her parents by her side this time, she wasn't afraid at all.
She even wanted to stay sick forever so that her parents would stay by her side.
Su Jingjing took the thermos and water cup to the bedroom, placed them on the table, then picked up the thermos, poured in some boiling water, gently blew on it to cool it down, and used a spoon to feed it to her daughter.
The little guy seemed very thirsty and drank rather quickly.
"Drink slowly, no rush."
Su Jingjing felt a pang of sadness, wishing she could take her daughter's place and get sick instead.
He wiped the water from the corner of her mouth and took the thermometer out of his daughter's armpit. Sure enough, she had a low-grade fever.
Su Jingjing simply couldn't imagine how the original owner of this body, the mother, could be so heartless when the little one was sick in the past few years.
The book provides a brief description of how Ah Ting was on a mission at the time. The little guy's body couldn't resist the virus's invasion because he was working non-stop, eating little and doing a lot, and eventually he got sick.
So what did the original owner do?
While Ah Ting was away from home, she ordered Yuan Yuan to do the laundry and cook, but she didn't get a kind word in return. Luckily, An An came home from school and found out in time, gave her a hard shove, and called her grandmother to complain, which saved Yuan Yuan's life.
An An thought his sister was resting at home, but he didn't expect her to be abused by their mother. At that moment, he hated the original owner of the body. When his father came home, he complained to him without any mercy.
After that incident, the original owner of this body finally calmed down for a few days.
Su Jingjing was incredibly grateful that An'an had a clever mind; otherwise, Yuanyuan's life would have been even more miserable.
The original owner was somewhat intimidated by An'an, but she was vicious towards Yuanyuan, harboring resentment towards her for almost losing her life.
An'an weighed six pounds when she was born, cried loudly, and was very energetic, while Yuanyuan was not only thin and small, but also cried all day long, which annoyed the original owner.
Thinking of this, Su Jingjing wanted to drag the original owner out and beat her up.
Looking at the thermometer, he said with some anxiety, "My daughter has a slight fever."
"Ah Ting, do you have any cold medicine at home?"
"I have some cold medicine, I'll go get it." Li Hanting put his daughter down, not forgetting to soothe his wife's emotions.
The couple, one went to get the medicine and the other went to pour hot water.
Su Jingjing poured in the powder and stirred it slowly.
Suddenly, a slightly pungent smell wafted up.
It might be a little bitter.
Li Hanting held his daughter in his strong arms, and the little one nestled on his shoulder, yawning.
The couple conspired to give their daughter water first.
When Mom feeds Yuanyuan a little water, she closes her eyes and drinks it.
She felt sleepy and uncomfortable, and drinking water would help soothe her throat.
Until the bitter taste of medicine filled her mouth, a taste she knew all too well.
She suddenly opened her eyes and glimpsed the dark medicine in the cup. It turned out that her mother had given her medicine without her noticing.
Waaah, she doesn't like taking medicine, and she puffed out her cheeks as if she was about to spit it out.
Seeing this, Su Jingjing had no choice but to put on a stern face and say, "You can't spit it out, or you'll have to get a shot in the butt."
The image of a long syringe flashed through her mind, startling her so much that she widened her eyes and swallowed the bitter medicine with tears in her eyes.
Although Li Hanting couldn't see his daughter's expression, it didn't stop him from feeling sorry for her. "She'll feel better after drinking the medicine, so we won't need to get a shot."
Even her father wouldn't help her.
She's so pitiful!
The little guy then swallowed the powder in the cup with tears in his eyes, looking pitiful.
Even though Su Jingjing felt sorry for her daughter, she couldn't let her daughter do whatever she wanted.
"After you finish your medicine, Mom will reward you with a milk candy."
Sure enough, tempted by the reward, Yuanyuan was no longer sleepy and drank even more enthusiastically.
Five minutes later, the little guy finally finished drinking the powder.
"Mommy, milk candy."
They eagerly reached out for the milk candy.
Su Jingjing wiped the water stains from her daughter's mouth, gave her a thumbs up, and said, "Great job, Mom is so proud of you."
Then I put a piece of candy into her little mouth.
The sweet taste of the milk candy spread in her little mouth, and Yuanyuan finally smiled. She gradually regained the energy to talk to her parents.
However, after finishing the candy, the little guy's eyelids started to droop again. He nestled on his father's broad shoulders, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
Su Jingjing placed her hand on her daughter's forehead; she still had a slight fever.
"Ah Ting, the temperature doesn't seem to have changed."
Li Hanting felt the effect of the granule on his forehead; it wasn't working quickly.
"My daughter seems to be in good spirits and should be getting better gradually."
As soon as he put his daughter on the bed, the little one started whining again.
"Okay, okay, Daddy's holding you."
Su Jingjing asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"My wife is fine. My daughter usually needs to be held to sleep when she has a cold."
Li Hanting comforted his wife, "Honey, you can sleep a little longer. I'll take care of you."
Su Jingjing shook her head; she couldn't sleep at all.
The man held his daughter tightly all night without letting up for a moment.
The little one was sleeping soundly, his arms wrapped around his father's neck.
She checked her daughter's temperature from time to time and found that it wasn't particularly serious, so she didn't alarm the child.
The next morning
Su Jingjing woke up with a start and just then saw A Ting placing her daughter beside her.
When did she fall asleep last night?
