4538 The Other Side 507

Little Yichen gave him a resentful sidelong glance. “That’s why you should keep your distance from me. You’d better not get infected by me.”

“What’s there to be afraid of? I’m not afraid of getting sick.”

Gu Jinglian immediately tensed up and gave him a knock on the head.

“Don’t make self-fulfilling prophecies.”

Baby Chu tilted his head. “Dad, what’s the meaning of self-fulfilling prophecies?”

The man pinched his cheeks in exasperation. Although he was angry at the boy, his heart ached for him even more. The boy’s words were as scary as a general telling his beloved female lead in a television drama, “I’ll marry you when I return after winning the war.”

However, his worries were soon answered.

The next day, when the man woke up after keeping watch for the night, Baby Chu was found to be running a high fever. The doctor checked on him and said that his condition had worsened, like Little Yichen’s. Hence, he suggested that Little Yichen and Baby Chu would need to be isolated in quarantine.

This would mean going into the full quarantine zone.

Gu Jinglian’s heart sank when he heard this. He was wondered if the boy’s condition had worsened because he had failed to take good care of him.

Mu Yazhe, on the other hand, could not bear to send Little Yichen into isolation.

If he were to be isolated, there would be no visiting rights. Little Yichen would definitely be lonely in the quarantine zone with no company.

However, since even the doctor had said so, the man had no choice but to agree for his son’s sake.

Naturally, Gu Jinglian had to agree as well. He had thought that Baby Chu was on the way to recovery and would be discharged soon. Unexpectedly, the boy’s condition had now worsened.

After agreeing to transfer to the full quarantine zone in the afternoon, Chu He and Yun Shishi were informed. The two women made their way to the hospital to visit their sons despite objections from their husbands.

Both of them were worried.

In the afternoon, Yun Shishi and Chu He arrived at the hospital. They hurried over to see their children. Baby Chu’s and Little Yichen’s situation had taken a turn for the worse, and they soon vomited everything they ate. Not only did they have a high fever, but their mental state was also worrying.

Yueyao hid in the bathroom and cried. Jing Yang accompanied her, but he couldn’t bear to see her like this.

Youyou, on the other hand, stayed by Little Yichen’s bedside, holding his hand tightly. Although he usually found this older brother annoying, at this critical moment, despite being a strong person, he could not help but shed tears.

Even when he was injured seriously, he had suppressed his tears. But now, the boy could no longer hold back his tears as he looked at the weak and ill Little Yichen. Gritting his teeth, he covered his face and cried secretly.

Little Yichen could only open his eyes and look at him. He did not even have the strength to speak. He wanted to raise his head and take his son’s hand to comfort him and tell him not to worry, but he couldn’t even speak.

Baby Chu’s situation was not much better. He had always been much more squeamish than Yichen. Initially, he could endure the pain of the high fever, but when he saw his mother, he broke down and sobbed sadly. “Mommy… I feel terrible…”

He felt as if his entire body was on fire, but also extremely cold. It was too hot to wrap himself in the blanket, yet he was shivering from the cold without it. He did not even have the strength to get out of bed.

Distressed, Chu He rushed over and held him tightly, finding it unbearable to part with him. She had already secretly asked the doctor about Baby Chu’s condition, but the doctor could not say for sure.

After all, this virus hit out of the blue and no one was prepared for it.
