Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!-Chapter 138 - : Mengmeng Got Scared and Ran a Fever
Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Mengmeng Got Scared and Ran a Fever
“Grandpa Luo, Grandma Luo, sorry to disturb you,” Gu Zhihan said, his handsome face regaining its composure while a hint of apology appeared on it. He then added, “Mengmeng has a fever.”
“What?” Grandpa Luo and Grandma Luo turned their heads in unison upon hearing this, glaring angrily at the younger uncle, “Did you keep her up at night, scaring her into getting a fever?”
“Oh, come on! I’m not taking the blame for this!” The younger uncle was almost spitting blood upon hearing this, almost kneeling before his parents’ bizarre thought process.
“Mengmeng’s fever must be because she fell into the river and got chilled during the day, how could it be because of me scaring her?” the younger uncle quickly explained.
However, Grandpa Luo and Grandma Luo said in unison, “That’s still your fault. If you hadn’t taken Mengmeng to the riverbank, would she have fallen into the river and gotten a fever?”
“Alright, alright, it’s all my fault, are you happy now…” the younger uncle had given up struggling and, feeling helpless, shrugged his shoulders then pointed at Luo Mengmeng, whose little face was flushed with fever, “Let’s not blame me anymore, we should hurry and take Mengmeng to the hospital. Look at her, her face is as red as a monkey’s butt.”
...
Upon hearing “hospital,” Mengmeng didn’t even mind her face being compared to a monkey’s butt, instead, she clutched her little blanket tightly, looking alarmed, “No, I don’t want to go!”
“How high is the fever?” Grandma Luo asked, moving forward to feel Mengmeng’s head.
Gu Zhihan said, “38.2 degrees.”
“That’s not too high a fever; she might not need to go to the hospital. Just cover her up when she sleeps, she’ll sweat it out and feel better,” Grandma Luo said while searching for a blanket in a nearby cabinet.
Upon hearing they wouldn’t go to the hospital, Mengmeng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing her look of having survived a great disaster, Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but smirk, teasing her, “Mengmeng, you’re really a scaredy-cat.”
“Tease me all you want,” Mengmeng puffed up her pale, chubby cheeks, pursing her lips higher than a soy sauce bottle.
As long as she doesn’t have to get an injection, she could handle a couple more spits from him without getting angry.
That’s right!
She’s just that spineless!
Gu Zhihan: “…”
Seeing her act as if she couldn’t care less about hot water on a dead pig, he found even the thought of teasing her boring.
After a while, Grandma Luo came to their bed with two thick winter blankets.
“This thick?” Luo Mengmeng got a shock the moment she saw the blankets.
Please, it’s the middle of summer…
“You don’t have to keep it on the whole time, just until you sweat out the fever, then you can take it off.” That’s the simple and rough way of traditional fever reduction.
Grandma Luo rolled her eyes at her, “If you can’t take it, then we might as well go to the hospital for an injection.”
“No, who said I can’t take it? I can handle it, I can!” Mengmeng said all at once, then burrowed into the quilt.
And then she wrapped herself up tightly.
“…”
Everyone in the room was left speechless.
Just how big of a phobia does this child have for hospitals!?
“It’s getting late, Grandpa Luo, Grandma Luo, you should go rest. I’ll stay with Mengmeng,” Gu Zhihan said, noticing that both old folks were getting sleepy and immediately spoke up.
“That’s fine, with our grandson-in-law here, I feel at ease,” Grandma Luo was indeed tired as the elderly can’t stand too much excitement.
“What, don’t you trust me to watch her?” the younger uncle couldn’t help but grumble discontentedly.
