Chapter 51: Yan Yinlan’s fever
Without any further dilly-dallying, the two bid Old Master Yan and the others farewell and went ho. What they weren’t expecting the instant they ca ho was the nanny bolting towards them with Yan Yinlan in her arms.
Lu An’an noticed her flustered expression. “What’s wrong?”
“Young Master Yan’s temperature is running high. I’ve been trying to treat his fever physically, but it hasn’t worked so far.” The words flew from Nanny Zhang’s mouth. Yan Yunge had instructed her to go for physical redies first when it ca to fevers in children, which was why she didn’t consider the hospital in the first place.
Yan Yunge had just got off the car at this second, and his jaw clenched tight.
Anxiety washed over Lu An’an as she took Yan Yinlan in her arms. “I got him. I’ll take him to the hospital.”
“You might need a change of clothes.” Yan Yunge shrugged. “I don’t think it will be easy running around wearing that.”
Though his tone was without emotion, he still took Yan Yinlan from her. The kid had always been as healthy as a horse. Knowing Yan Yinlan’s fever hadn’t subsided after all that treatnt, Yan Yunge creased his brows.
When Lu An’an changed into another set of clothes, she noticed how Yan Yunge’s expression gave him away. She didn’t try to expose him. “I’ll be taking the kiddo to the hospital. Are you coming along?”
Yan Yunge nodded. “Yeah. Sure.”
So the three of them took off with the driver behind the wheel and Yan Yunge sitting in the backseat to cradle Yan Yinlan.
The driver took a brief look over his shoulder, catching a glimpse of the trio. He didn’t expect Yan Yunge to be that gentle with a kid despite not being related by blood, and it seed that Yan Yinlan mattered more than he had predicted to the couple.
Once they stepped foot at the hospital, Lu An’an hurried over to the registration counter while Yan Yunge held the kid in his arms, soothing him when he moaned in pain as he patted him as Lu An’an would. Standing next to them was their driver, and for a split second, he could imagine how Yan Yunge would make a good father.
Lu An’an returned, only to find a loving father comforting his sick child, but what made her burst out laughing was his clumsy and uncoordinated moves.
“What?” Yan Yunge almost groaned. All he did was babysit in his best attempt, and she made fun of him.
“You don’t even know how to hold him correctly!” Her giggling paused, and she held out her arms. “Here, let take him.”
Yan Yunge felt embarrassed, but there were no words to save face other than, “You know this is a hospital, right? No loud talking.”
“Co on. The doctor’s waiting.”
It was a relief to hear the doctor promising Yan Yinlan would be fine. Out of concern, the couple still requested his overnight stay in the observation ward, and they let the driver off work early.
After Yan Yinlan’s fever had returned to normal, they were finally at ease.
“Are you tired? You should take a nap.” Lu An’an knew Yan Yunge wasn’t feeling any comfortable sitting there. “We’ll head ho soon.”
He nodded, not rejecting her offer as he needed to take extra care of his health. “You too. You can use the bed over there,” he uttered softly.
And so she did. Yet, once Yan Yunge had fallen asleep, she sneaked out of the VIP room and pushed the door to another ward open.
Her mother, Li Lihua, had been hospitalized in the sa hospital. Before that, she had no intention of letting her mother know about her and Yan Yunge, so she kept quiet all that while.
And now she saw the chance and ca to visit her.
