Ji Yebai was taken aback for a mont.
Such a weak, humble Ning Xixi, he had never seen her like this before.
His heart ached as if pricked by needles, and a sharp, tingling pain seeped through all his limbs.
Without any hesitation, he tightly embraced Ning Xixi into his arms, securing his hold, protecting this girl firmly in his embrace.
Ning Xixi’s forehead rested against his broad chest, feeling the warm touch of his body, murmuring dreamily, "I’ve been good, I haven’t cried, daddy, don’t scold anymore... Mom, won’t you co back? Or take away with you..."
Ji Yebai’s eyes flickered with shock.
Did Ning Xixi want to die?
The arms holding her involuntarily tightened even more.
"Ning Xixi, snap out of it! What’s with the lodrama, casually talking about death, don’t dismiss yourself like that!" Ji Yebai growled in her ear, "Even if you really wanted to die, I wouldn’t allow it!"
His shouting awakened Ning Xixi, she blinked, realizing she wasn’t dreaming, but in reality.
Subconsciously, she pushed Ji Yebai away.
Her baby-fat cheeks puffed up, "Why are you here?"
Ji Yebai raised an eyebrow, arrogantly replied: "This is my room."
Ning Xixi was speechless, turned her head aside, coughed a few tis, her face flaring with an unnatural flush.
Ji Yebai, as if facing a grave enemy, touched her forehead; his palm felt scorching hot, he couldn’t help but curse softly, "Idiot! What are you getting pissed at for, piss off and I can hit you, scold you, just don’t you dare get sick without saying a word to !"
He pulled out his cellphone and called Shi Nianchu, asking him to quickly bring the school doctor over.
Soon, there was a knock at the door.
The school doctor ca in, took Ning Xixi’s temperature, hastily prescribed fever-reducing dication for her, and instructed Ji Yebai to apply a cold compress with a wet towel.
Half an hour later, Ning Xixi’s fever still had not subsided, and the school doctor grew anxious, "In this situation... we should send her to the hospital right away..."
"Shit! If you couldn’t treat her, why didn’t you say so earlier!" Ji Yebai lost his temper, kicked over a chair, scooped Ning Xixi up horizontally, and strode rapidly through the manor to the main hall like a teor.
"Get a car, I’m heading down the mountain!"
"Yes!"
When Shi Nianchu hurried over, all he saw was the car’s shadow, and he sighed in resignation.
The breathless school doctor caught up, expressing with emotion, "Young master Ji really does care deeply for this girl."
...
Hospital.
After sending Ning Xixi to the ward, Ji Yebai took an important call. When he returned, he saw the attending doctor berating him fiercely, "Are you the patient’s family mber?"
Ji Yebai remained unperturbed, "Yes."
"Really, I thought you had run off! We had the nurse call her family, and her father actually said he was too busy with business to co. Ah, parents these days, really too irresponsible towards their children!"
"Tell directly if there’s a problem."
"Hmph!" The attending doctor adjusted his presbyopia glasses and nagged Ji Yebai about Ning Xixi’s condition.
The fever was caused by catching a chill and also emotional stress.
"Once this girl gets better, make sure you take good care of her health! At such a young age, her physical condition might be worse than soone in their fifties or sixties! Tell , does your family value males over females? Are you planning to watch this girl die?"
A frosty glint condensed in Ji Yebai’s hawk-like eyes, "What did you say?!"
