Shen Yi took it, went over to Zhouzhou’s side, and helped to get the medicine out, placing it in Zhouzhou’s palm.
Shen Wenzhou took the medicine, he could feel how uncomfortable he was at this moment, but he had no idea how terrible he looked right now.
So after he finished taking the medicine, Ye Wanwan helped Shen Wenzhou lie down in bed again.
"If you’re feeling unwell, just sleep, mom and dad are here," Ye Wanwan said softly, reaching out to tuck Zhouzhou in with the blanket.
Shen Wenzhou’s vision was blurry, he actually wanted to say that he was fine, that he had taken the medicine, and a good sleep would make things better, and that they should all go back to their rooms to rest.
But Shen Wenzhou seemed to have no strength left, he didn’t manage to say a word before his eyes closed heavily.
Shen Wenzhou did not sleep peacefully, his brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was having a nightmare, he occasionally murmured something, but his voice was so soft that Ye Wanwan and Shen Yi couldn’t hear clearly.
It was only when dawn gradually broke and Shen Wenzhou’s fever broke that Ye Wanwan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Yi wrapped his arm around Ye Wanwan’s shoulders, "You go down and rest first, I will take care of Zhouzhou here."
Ye Wanwan wanted to refuse, but Shen Yi didn’t give her a chance to say no, stood up, and led Ye Wanwan out, "Go back and rest."
In the end, Ye Wanwan was pushed out the door by Shen Yi; she turned back for a glance but said nothing further and went downstairs to rest.
Shen Yi watched Ye Wanwan go down the stairs, then returned to the bedroom to continue watching over Zhouzhou.
When Shen Wenzhou groggily woke up, he felt uncertain about the time of day; he turned his head to look out the window at the grey, gloomy sky, which resembled dusk.
Sitting dazedly for a while, Shen Wenzhou noticed the medical tape on the back of his hand and remembered he had been running a fever.
Yes, he had a fever last night.
So had he slept for a whole day and night?
This sleep was very exhausting, he was always in a dream; he dreamed of Taozhi, and he dreamed of his mother...
Shen Wenzhou pursed his lips, why was he always dreaming about a completely different mother lately?
Taozhi was adopted by his mother, so why did his mother detest Taozhi in his dreams?
She said things like "If she’s dead, she’s dead," "It’s just a cat," "If you like her just buy another one to bring back"...
His mother was so kind, so why, in his dreams, did his mother seem to become a demon?
Shen Wenzhou pursed his lips, his face growing increasingly uncomfortable-looking, not only because of the pain of losing Taozhi, but also because of a deep anger at himself, how could he think of his mother like that?
"Brother, you’re awake!" Ye Chaochao’s voice suddenly came.
Shen Wenzhou came back to his senses, looked over, and saw Ye Chaochao coming in with a face full of surprise, Shen Wenzhou nodded blankly and responded softly, "Uh-huh."
"How are you feeling now? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Ye Chaochao spoke while walking over, reaching out to touch Shen Wenzhou’s forehead.
Shen Wenzhou dodged, his voice hoarse, "Stay away from me, don’t catch it yourself."
"No, I won’t!" Ye Chaochao was stubborn, insisting on checking Shen Wenzhou’s temperature herself.
Only after verifying that Shen Wenzhou wasn’t feverish anymore did Ye Chaochao breathe a sigh of relief, then she lowered her head with a hint of disappointment and said, "I only found out this morning that Brother had a fever."
