4536 The Other Side 505
Yun Shishi’s heart ached for Little Yichen, but she was also worried about Yueyao’s concern for her brother, so she made the girl put on a thick mask.
For two consecutive days, Little Yichen’s fever kept recurring. One moment, it was down to 37 degrees Celsius, and the next night, it was close to 40 degrees Celsius. His entire body was burning, and in the end, he was delirious.
The woman had been sleeping badly for a few days. Mu Yazhe was distressed by what she was going through, and suggested that she should go home to get some rest. She was unwilling, but in the end, he forced her to go home. Having not slept for a few days and stayed up late, her immunity would have been affected as well. In addition, she was delicate and weak to begin with, so Mu Yazhe was worried.
After Yun Shishi had gone home, Mu Yazhe took over the responsibility of caring for the three little ones.
!!
In the past, the man would not have been able to take care of himself even, and would have made a mess out of having to care for the three children besides. However, after she got pregnant with Yueyao, he had attended to everything personally, from the time she was pregnant to the time she was about to give birth, to post-birth, confinement, and breastfeeding.
Who was born to do housework and raise children? Weren’t all these skills learnt later on in life?
By the time Yueyao grew up, the man could be considered to have mastered the art of raising children. When it came to raising children, he was not inferior to a top-notch nanny at all.
On the other hand, Chu He had to take care of the two children. She had just ended the period of breastfeeding, so her immunity was weakened. If she were to be in and out of the hospital too often, she would have to be isolated from the two little ones. Hence, the responsibility of taking care of the boy fell on Gu Jinglian. Except that this man had only ever been taken care of by others. Where would he have gotten any experience in taking care of others?
When Chu He was in confinement, he volunteered to take care of his wife, but ended up making a mess out of it. In the end, Chu He drove him out.
Baby Chu was hospitalized, and Butler Fu was elderly. They didn’t trust anyone else to do the job. Moreover, the boy had said that he wanted Gu Jinglian to accompany him, so the man had no choice but to do it himself.
In the end, a few days later, Baby Chu regretted it.
How did the man clean his face? Like how he would wipe down a table. He covered the boy’s face with a face towel. Then, rubbed his face until it turned red and raw. The man believed that only if his face turned red, would it be scrubbed clean. Every time he finished cleaning Baby Chu’s face, it would be flushed red as if he was drunk. It was as if the man had scrubbed off a layer of skin. It gave Gu Jinglian a sense of accomplishment, nevertheless.
Baby Chu looked to the side and saw My Yazhe gently wiping Little Yichen’s face and hands. He was so jealous to the point of speechlessness!
He patted the blanket and shouted indignantly at his father’s back, “Dad! What’s the use of being handsome?! You don’t know how to cook or wash clothes, and you can’t even take care of the sick! Can having a handsome face amount to any practical benefits?!”
Gu Jinglian turned around with a sinister look on his face. He was about to lose his cool, but on account of his son saying that he was handsome, he relented.
Hearing this, Little Yichen was indignant. He forced himself to sit up with his weak body and said, “Is your father handsome? He’s not as handsome as my father! Hmph! My father is the most handsome man in the world! The richest and gentlest! Can your father compare to him?!”
At this, Baby Chu was indignant as well. He stood on the bed with his hands on his hips, his cheeks puffed up from anger. “My father is the most handsome! Although he has the worst temper, doesn’t know how to do housework, doesn’t know how to cook, and is always fierce to me, my father is definitely richer than your father! Powerful! And violent!”
