Uninvited Guest
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The chat erupted in chaos.
Zhao Liang and his wife had sought Chen Yu’s help with a baby na, but now Chen Yu was instructing them to call ergency services and the police!
Clearly, sothing sinister was afoot, and sothing interesting was bound to happen.
“Dr. Chen, are we in danger of an accident?” Su Wen stamred nervously, glancing towards the door with growing apprehension.
Could there be a potential intruder, soone who might harm them? Was this why Chen Yu urged them to call for help?
“Is there an uninvited guest in our house, Dr. Chen?” Both Zhao Liang and Su Wen shared the sa thoughts.
Their wealthy background made them acutely aware of the possibility of robbery.
“Uninvited guest isn’t a bad term,” Chen Yu acknowledged nonchalantly.
“Considering your surroundings, it’s clear you and your wife are financially comfortable. Did you hire a nanny before the baby arrived?”
!!..
“Yes, we are fortunate financially, and I did secure a nanny beforehand,” Zhao Liang confird.
An avid viewer of Chen Yu’s streams, Su Wen spent her entire pregnancy glued to the broadcasts, solidifying them as hardcore fans.
As such, Zhao Liang readily understood the veiled ssage in Chen Yu’s words. He didn’t dare hold back any information.
“As soon as we learned Su Wen was pregnant, I contacted a reputable childcare agency,” he explained.
“We booked their top nanny well in advance. She was supposed to provide
24-hour care after Su Wen’s hospital delivery.”
“Could it be?” A sudden realization dawned on Zhao Liang.
“Dr. Chen, are you suggesting the nanny is this uninvited guest?”
“Please, let finish,” Chen Yu interjected with a serious expression.
“Did the nanny request a leave of absence yesterday, citing a family ergency that required her to return ho for a few days?”
“Yes, that’s exactly what happened,” Su Wen confird.
Their contract stipulated year-round service with the nanny residing at their ho, dedicated to caring for their newborn around the clock.
“Last night, she approached desperately, claiming her newborn grandchild was suddenly ill,” Su Wen continued.
“She insisted on accompanying her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchild to the hospital for a checkup.”
“I felt for her distress, so I granted her leave and even offered 2,000 yuan as consolation money.”
A chilling coincidence erged.
The top nanny, a woman in her fifties, had a daughter-in-law who recently gave birth.
Not only that, but both babies were born just two days apart, and both deliveries occurred at the sa hospital!
“Her request for leave was a smokescreen,” Chen Yu declared.
“Seeing a doctor with her child is a re facade. She’s the one who’s truly sick.” A jolt of terror surged through Su Wen and Zhao Liang as they rose from their chairs simultaneously.
Su Wen instinctively cradled their newborn closer.
Chen Yu continued with a heavy sigh. “The nanny has been unwell for over twenty days. Do you understand the gravity of the situation?”
“How could she do this?!” Su Wen roared, her voice laced with fury.
The contract clearly outlined the nanny’s obligation to disclose any illness and imdiately isolate herself from the baby.
For over twenty days, the nanny kept her sickness a secret, potentially exposing their newborn to a severe health risk.
The consequences were too horrifying to contemplate.
Zhao Liang’s heart plumted, praying their worst fears wouldn’t co true.
Zhao Liang had ticulously prepared for his child’s arrival. He’d secured a top-tier nanny, devoured parenting resources through books and videos, and even enrolled in a month-long childcare class.
Newborns possessed minimal resistance to illness, so ensuring the health of parents, relatives, and caregivers was paramount.
Prior to the nanny’s arrival, Zhao Liang had her undergo a comprehensive physical examination at a local hospital to rule out any infectious or detrintal diseases that could harm the baby.
Su Wen’s voice trembled as tears stread down her face. “Dr. Chen, is the nanny’s illness contagious? Did my baby catch it?”
“Yes,” Chen Yu’s confirmation sent a shiver down Zhao Liang and Su Wen’s spines.
They felt like they’d been plunged into a frozen wasteland.
The nanny wasn’t suffering from a common illness; it was highly contagious.
The virus had already spread from the nanny to their fragile child.
The baby would soon exhibit symptoms of a seizure—foaming at the mouth, vacant eyes, and uncontrollable tremors.
Later, jaundice would likely set in.
“If you hadn’t joined the livestream today,” Chen Yu explained, “the baby would’ve started showing signs of jaundice within a few days.”
“Doctors would diagnose it as neonatal septicemia and viral encephalitis.”
Su Wen was wracked with sobs, her legs giving way as she crumpled to the ground.
Zhao Liang swiftly caught her, gently guiding her to a chair.
He then took the baby from her trembling arms.
“Neonatal septicemia… viral encephalitis…”
These dical terms hung heavy in the air, like two bombs detonating in the young couple’s world.
The chat erupted in outrage.
“This nanny deserves everything coming to her!”
“Her actions are beyond unprofessional; they’re criminal!”
“As a famous nanny, how could she be so ignorant of a newborn’s weak immune system?!’1
“She should’ve isolated herself imdiately upon falling ill and urged the parents to take the baby for a checkup. But where was her own sense of responsibility?”
“We rely on word-of-mouth recomndations to find nannies. Just because a company labels them ‘gold dal’ doesn’t translate to good care.”
“I wouldn’t use a nanny service anymore. If my wife gets pregnant, I’ll get my license and take care of the baby myself!”
“Call the police! Drag that nanny back for a checkup! Until she’s treated, there won’t be any evidence!”
“Septicemia and encephalitis can cause lifelong complications. Recovery is difficult, expensive, and requires constant attention.”
The plight of Zhao Liang and Su Wen resonated with countless parents in the live chat.
The pain and rage were palpable.
Anyone with a child could understand their desire to see the “golden-dal nanny” face the consequences.
The situation was further complicated by the nanny’s own grandson, born just two days before their child.
“What kind of evil person could do such a thing?” Zhao Liang roared, his eyes bloodshot with fury. “I… I will never let her get away with this!”
“Why would she do this?” Su Wen sobbed, her voice heavy with despair.
“Because you gave her too much,” Chen Yu replied..
