Chapter 2196: Lu Meng (8)
"I see." Jiaojiao didn’t doubt it because she truly couldn’t remember what she had forgotten.
"Nai, did I really have a fever for three days?"
"Yes, it almost scared me to death. You better not fool around next time; you know how your body is. Why go out in such cold weather? And Xiaoxi doesn’t understand either, letting you run wild. When he comes back, I’m going to have a good talk with him!" Ruanlin Family recalled the past three days with lingering fear.
On the early morning of the day after Ruai Jiaojiao’s birthday, Duan Xi carried her back from outside. Her little face was frostbitten and purplish, and she was in a strange mental state, and she cried so much that her eyes were swollen, but she wouldn’t say what happened no matter how they asked.
They thought that if she didn’t want to say, then she shouldn’t; little did they know, that day Ruan Jie coaxed her to sleep, and after Duan Xi returned to the room, everything seemed fine at first as if she was just sleeping. However, the nap lasted until the evening, and she hadn’t woken up. She started talking nonsense, crying and causing drama as if she had lost her soul. By midnight, she had a high fever, which lasted for three days, and even medicine and injections didn’t work; Ruan Jianguo nearly moved the hospital over.
In the end, with no other choice, they heard that there was a living fairy in a small town over a hundred kilometers away who specializes in these cases, so the four of them set off before dawn this morning.
However, what Ruanlin Family was telling, Jiaojiao had no memory of.
Her memory stopped at watching fireworks on her birthday; she couldn’t recall anything after that. Could it really be that the fever muddled her mind and left her unable to remember?
"Are you hungry? Your godmother is downstairs making some porridge for you. Would you like some? Shall I have her bring it up?" Seeing Jiaojiao in a daze, Ruanlin Family softly asked.
"Oh, okay, I am quite hungry." Jiaojiao nodded, touching her stomach, which was indeed shrunken and empty.
"Alright then, just close your eyes and rest a bit more. I’ll go down and check." Ruanlin Family finished saying, carefully laid Jiaojiao’s head back on the pillow, reminded Xiaobai who had been keeping watch, and then went downstairs.
’Hiss hiss hiss... Little Cutie, do you really not remember?’
Xiaobai watched Ruanlin Family go downstairs, hesitatingly looking at Jiaojiao.
"Xiaobai, you’re here too?" Seeing Xiaobai, Jiaojiao asked, sensing something was off about its expression. "Is there something you want to tell me?"
Xiaobai stood up and was about to crawl over, but its eye caught a glance at the doorway seeing one big and one small figure approaching, and quickly retreated to its original position.
Following its gaze, Jiaojiao saw Lu Xian holding Lu Meng’s hand as they walked in. Lu Xian came to the bedside, looked at her, and asked, "Is there anywhere else you still feel uncomfortable?"
"Ah, no, no, thank you, Brother Zhen." Jiaojiao immediately replied with a smile, her gaze then falling on the nearby Lu Meng, to whom she gave a friendly smile.
Seeing this, Lu Meng also smiled back at her. He was already quite handsome, and the smile made him even more dazzling.
Jiaojiao couldn’t help but say, "Brother Zhen, Xiaomeng is really good-looking, especially his beautiful eyes."
"Mmh, now rest well." Lu Xian nodded, holding onto the slightly reluctant Lu Meng, they turned to leave. But upon turning around, Lu Xian’s eyes shaded dark.
Once they left the Lu Family, Lu Xian crouched down to ask Lu Meng, "Are you sure there’s no issue? She won’t remember again?"
"No, she won’t." Lu Meng answered confidently.
