Chapter 63: Borrow Medicine

After stammering for a long time, Zhao Hao finally said, “Little Ye, I, I want to ask you something…”

“Yes, I’m listening. Brother Zhao, go ahead. There’s no need to be so polite to me. As long as it’s something I can help with, I’ll try my best.”

Ye Xingchen was also very curious. What could make Zhao Hao so embarrassed? It shouldn’t be supplies. He had quite a lot of supplies on hand now.

Zhao Hao scratched his head with his phone and turned to look at Li Anran, who was coaxing her child. He said embarrassedly, “It’s like this. Li Anran’s daughter has a fever. 1 don’t have any medicine at home.”

“Her whole body is burning up now. She can’t even drink milk and keeps spitting out milk. Her mother and I are almost dying of anxiety. We asked many people and they said that there’s no medicine at home. I really had no choice but to ask if you still have medicine.”

Towards the end of his sentence, the anxiety in Zhao Hao’s voice was about to leak out of the screen.

Ye Xingchen and Lin Sijia, who were sitting beside him, heard everything, and their faces were filled with shock.

Unexpectedly, Li Anran, who had not made any movements in the group, actually stayed at Zhao Hao’s house!

Ye Xingchen sighed in his heart. This woman was really not simple. Out of so many people, she actually found Zhao Hao. It was only that Zhao Hao was soft-hearted. If it was anyone else, who would be willing to help raise someone else’s child and give their life-saving food to an outsider?

Everyone was well aware of the methods Li Anran used. For Zhao Hao to be so concerned at this time, their relationship was probably not that simple. However, this was Zhao Hao’s private matter, and Ye Xingchen did not intend to get involved.

If Li Anran was able to get along with a schmuck like Zhao Hao, it was also considered her ability.

“I see. Congratulations, Big Brother Zhao!”

Zhao Hao was a little embarrassed. After all, his behavior was not honorable. “You, Little Brother Ye, don’t make fun of me. I’m just living with her. You know my situation. If it weren’t for the severe snowstorm now, I’m afraid 1 wouldn’t have been able to touch a woman in my life.”

Ye Xingchen laughed. “I still have a little medicine here. It’s not much. 1 didn’t prepare a lot before, but I still have two or three boxes. Come and get it later if it’s convenient.”

Zhao Hao was so excited that he couldn’t speak. He had thought that he would be rejected. He really had no other choice, so he wanted to ask Ye Xingchen. After all, he couldn’t watch his woman’s child die of illness.

However, he did not expect Ye Xingchen to agree to give him the medicine so readily. According to what Ye Xingchen said just now, he clearly did not have much left.

“Little Ye, you, you…How can I thank you?”

“You’ve always been helping me. I didn’t help you much. The last time they went to smash your house, 1 actually, actually…I’m really not human!”

The sound of two slaps came from the microphone. Ye Xingchen hurriedly said, “Big Brother Zhao, your words are making you so distant from me. You see, the two of us have been old acquaintances for so many years. What’s there to help or not to help? In my heart, I already see you as my biological big brother.”

“Alright, don’t say such things. We’re family. 1 treat you like family. Hurry up and get the medicine. Don’t let the child’s fever get worse.”

Hearing Ye Xingchen’s words, Lin Sijia felt a warm feeling in her heart.

Previously, she only thought that Ye Xingchen was smart, cold-blooded, and terrifyingly shrewd, but this was the first time she realized that Ye Xingchen could be so lively.

She knew that Ye Xingchen must have a lot of medicine stored in his space. He had deliberately said that to Zhao Hao just now.

After hesitating for a while, Lin Sijia asked, “Is your relationship with Zhao Hao that good?”

One was a rich second-generation heir, and the other was just a security guard in the neighborhood. Lin Sijia didn’t believe what Ye Xingchen said about being like a family. The two of them didn’t usually have any interactions.

Ye Xingchen reached out and picked up a strawberry from the fruit plate. He put it in his mouth and said lightly, “It’s alright, but Zhao Hao used to be a soldier. He has good stamina and can fight better than ordinary people.”

“And as you can see, he’s very kind. The reason why he got together with Li Anran was because Li Anran asked someone in the group to sell her food at a low price. Zhao Hao couldn’t stand it and gave her a few bags of instant noodles for free.”

“I gave him a little favor and let him remember this favor of mine so that I can use him in the future.”

After a pause, Ye Xingchen continued. “And you should know that the apocalypse has arrived.”

“He’s kind and honest, and he has a rare humanity in this apocalypse. I don’t think a good person like him should die so early.”

After more than an hour, Lin Sijia had already started preparing dinner. The alarm in the house rang for a long time.

Ye Xingchen turned off the alarm. In just a few minutes, Zhao Hao’s voice came from the voice transmitter.

“Little Ye, it’s Zhao Hao. Are you home?”

Ye Xingchen subconsciously looked at the surveillance camera and instantly frowned.

Besides Zhao Hao, there was an uninvited guest at the door.

“Is this Big Brother Zhao?”

Ye Xingchen walked to the door and opened the two-way call, asking the obvious.

“Yes, it’s me.” Zhao Hao’s voice was trembling with anxiety.

Ye Xingchen stood at the door of the third floor and looked at the top of their heads with some frustration. He didn’t like Li Anran very much and felt that she had some ill intentions by following along.

“Xingchen! It’s me! I’m Li Anran! My child has a high fever and can’t even drink milk. Please, save my child! She’s dying!”

Li Anran acted as if she was on a show. She hugged the child and leaned against Zhao Hao, starting to sob.

Ye Xingchen picked out a bottle of suspension for children and a box of cold medicine from his space. He put the two boxes in a plastic bag and threw them out from the shooting hole upstairs.

“Is it that serious? Then quickly get the medicine for the child. A fever at this time is not a small matter!”

Zhao Hao hurriedly picked up the medicine that had fallen beside him. He was so excited that his voice was trembling. “Thank you, Little Ye. Thank you so much!”

Li Anran stretched out her hand and snatched the plastic bag from Zhao Hao’s hand. She rolled her eyes and said with a sobbing tone. “Xingchen, can I ask you for a favor?”

“It’s too cold. I know you have a heater in your house, so can I let my child Little Treasure stay at your house for a while?”

“My child is burning up right now, and we don’t have any more clothes for her to wear. She’s having a fever from the cold, and I’m only asking you this because I really have no other choice. Let my child stay at your house for a while. When she recovers, I’ll come and bring her home! OK?”

Zhao Hao was obviously stunned.

When he came, Li Anran did not tell him about this plan..
