Yun Shishi was also shocked by his flushed face.

“What happened?” Carrying Yueyao, she anxiously walked over and looked at Jing Yang. Her heart ached to see the boy so ill. “Why has the fever returned and worsened?”

“I don’t know. He already had a raging fever when I woke up. His entire body was burning up, and he was in a daze. He couldn’t even speak coherently…”

Their conversation startled Jing Yang.

When he opened his eyes and saw Yueyao, he immediately reached out for her.

Little Yueyao looked at him and then at her mother, as if wondering what was going on.

Yun Shishi patted her head and said, “Little Big Brother is sick and would like you to accompany him!”

Yueyao nodded. She walked over to the bed and clumsily pushed a stool to Jing Yang’s side. Then, she climbed onto the chair and sat down.

The boy was in a daze. He raised his little hand, but what he saw were blurry images of her.

His fever was so high that everything he saw was blurry, like shifting shadows.

Yueyao also reached out and gently clasped her hands with his. She immediately felt how scorching his tiny hands were.

“It’s hot.”

Yueyao’s voice was crisp and childish.

“His hands are like hot water bottles!”

“Little Big Brother is sick. He has a fever, just like Yueyao.”

“But Yueyao’s hands aren’t this hot,” the girl pointed out. She was a little disappointed when she heard that Jing Yang was sick. She was bored in the hospital. She missed her daddy so much.

Mu Yazhe had visited last night. However, when he arrived, the girl had already taken her medicine and gone to bed early. He stayed through the night and went to work at dawn. At that time, Yueyao was still unconscious.

Hence, the girl missed her father and wanted to get better so that she could go home as soon as possible. However, she also realized that she could play with Jing Yang if she were sick and stayed in the hospital. She liked to play with Jing Yang because she found the boy very interesting! But now that Jing Yang was ill, she was left to be by herself.

Yueyao’s face was filled with unconcealed disappointment.

Jing Yang opened his eyes and closed them again weakly. He struggled to sit up, but it was futile. He didn’t even have the strength to sit up, let alone go to the back garden with Yueyao to play.

Disappointed!

“Alright, don’t disturb little Big Brother anymore. Can you just accompany little Big Brother quietly like this?”

Yueyao raised her head and suddenly thought of something. “Yueyao wants to tell little Big Brother a story!”

“Sure.”

Yueyao ran back to her room and walked over with a pop-up fairy tale book. The fairy tale book was a book of Grimms’ fairy tales in the form of a pop-up book. It was a series of fairy tale books developed by Lezhi Group, and Li Hanlin had given Yun Shishi a set.

Normally, a set of fairy tales would comprise three volumes, each of which was extremely heavy. Yueyao found it extremely strenuous to carry even one of them.

The book she had brought over was “Sleeping Beauty”. Yueyao was especially fond of the story. Almost every night before bedtime, she would ask her mother to read this book. She would not get tired of listening to it. Eventually, she could almost memorize it herself!

Children at this age are very passionate about things and stories that they like. For example, they would watch their favorite cartoons repeatedly.

Yun Shishi was greatly amused, but there was nothing she could do.

“This is my favorite fairy tale!” Yueyao gave Jing Yang an introduction.
