Young Master He's mermaid baby is super sweet

Chapter 43 The Little One Is Sick

"Go to your room." He Shizhou glanced at Su Tao, then walked straight into his room.

Su Tao had been feeling aggrieved the whole way, originally intending to put on airs, but He Shizhou completely ignored him.

After everyone left, Su Tao could only stand up and follow them.

When he saw the little mermaid lying on the bed in the room, her face flushed and her neck covered with red marks, he couldn't help but be surprised, and then stared wide-eyed at He Shizhou.

"You... huh?" Su Tao knew how many years He Shizhou had been holding back, and seeing the little mermaid's still red and swollen eyes, he must have cried terribly last night. He couldn't help but curse He Shizhou, "You beast!"

He Shizhou ignored Su Tao. He knew he had indeed been too harsh last night, which was why the little guy was sick today.

"Take a look at him quickly, he has a fever, and it's burning hot."

Su Tao took out a thermometer and placed it under Luo You's armpit to take her temperature; it was almost 38 degrees Celsius.

This temperature might not be considered too high for a human, but for a fish with a colder constitution, it's already close to the warning line.

Su Tao knew what had happened last night and could roughly guess why the little guy had a fever. Besides, He Shizhou wouldn't let him examine him in that kind of place, so Su Tao didn't say anything and directly looked for things to prepare for an IV drip to reduce the fever.

Luo You was already dizzy from the fever. He pulled He Shizhou along, leaning against He Shizhou's chest and whimpering uncomfortably, his voice hoarse.

But when Su Tao finished preparing the items and pulled out the thin needle, Luo You was still startled and became more alert, struggling violently.

"No, Youyou, no, He Shizhou, Youyou is scared." Little pearls rolled down Luo You's cheeks again as he desperately shrank back.

He Shizhou felt very sorry for him when he saw him like this, but he still needed to get an injection, otherwise his temperature would not come down.

He could only hold the little guy's hand firmly with one hand and support the back of his head with the other, letting him bury his face in his chest, and gently coax him.

"Baby, it will only hurt for a little while, it will stop hurting soon. You are sick, but you will feel better after the injection."

"Waaaaah~ No, Yu-Yu is scared."

Luo You cried bitterly, but He Shizhou held him tightly, and he couldn't break free.

Su Tao looked at the two people and heard some pitiful cries. He felt a little reluctant to do it, but as a doctor's duty, he calmly inserted the needle and then secured it.

Luo You was terrified of needles, and her arm was constantly tense. Her attention was focused on the back of her hand, so it hurt even more.

Although Su Tao tied it up extremely quickly, Luo You still cried so hard that her whole body trembled.

Su Tao couldn't bear to listen to the pitiful crying in the room any longer, so she gave He Shizhou a look and left first.

He Shizhou gently patted the back of the person in his arms to help him catch his breath, and then tenderly kissed the top of his head repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, just this one injection, alright? Baby, don't cry, it hurts me to see you like this." He Shizhou's heart ached.

Although his little mermaid cries a lot, she rarely cries this hard; she must really be in pain.

Luo You didn't speak or look up; he just cried.

He was already feeling unwell, and then he got a needle prick, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

He Shizhou held him for a long time until the crying gradually subsided and then slowly disappeared.

The person in his arms quieted down, and He Shizhou loosened his grip a little before realizing that the little guy had fallen asleep again.

He sighed, gently placed the person on the bed, and rubbed the tear stains on the person's eyelashes with the pad of his thumb.

He Shizhou covered the little guy with the blanket, leaned in and gave him a light kiss on the forehead, then got up and walked out.

Su Tao sat on the sofa, seemingly lost in thought. Hearing the door close, he turned to look at He Shizhou and clicked his tongue twice.

"He Shizhou, you scumbag! How could you do this? And didn't you pursue that young master of the Fu family so passionately for years? You even said you'd known each other since childhood and grown up to be close friends. Pah, you scumbag!"

Su Tao spoke for a long time, but He Shizhou's expression did not change at all. He calmly sat down opposite Su Tao and only raised an eyebrow at Su Tao after Su Tao finished speaking.

"The guy I've been chasing for years... isn't he in your bed?"

Su Tao suddenly froze, his eyes widening as he came to his senses. He thought about what happened this morning, but wasn't that person surnamed Yan?

"He Shizhou, don't talk nonsense. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would do that kind of thing?"

"You know Fu Yan'an," He Shizhou continued.

This time, Su Tao couldn't say another word. He Shizhou had only said "Yan An" that day, but who knew it was "Yan" and not "Yan"?

He said that the name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

"Why do you want me to pick up the person you like?" Su Tao said angrily. He Shizhou was simply crazy. He was always carrying around a fish, and now he wanted me to pick up the person he liked.

"I don't like it anymore. Didn't you already say that I have this fish now?" He Shizhou said nonchalantly. "But you also know that the entire Fu family has immigrated. He's all alone in China. Now that you're living with him, you should take care of him more."

Thinking of the face on his bed this morning, Su Tao couldn't help but curse He Shizhou as a "scumbag" again. After saying that, he took out a few boxes of medicine from his small medicine box, put them on the table, explained how to use them, and left with disdain.

He Shizhou watched Su Tao's departing figure, shook his head, and went back to his room with the medicine, not caring at all.

He stayed by Luo You's bedside the whole time, and after the IV drip was finished, he removed the needle and applied a hot towel to the back of Luo You's hand. He only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no redness or swelling except for a small needle mark.

He Shizhou also got into bed, held the person in his arms, and then fell asleep with Luo You.

When the two woke up again, it was already evening. After sleeping all day, Luo You was a little hungry when she opened her eyes, but she still didn't want to get up, so she tried to snuggle into He Shizhou's arms.

After a few burrows, he woke up He Shizhou, who was asleep.

"What are you doing, baby?" He Shizhou's voice was still a little hoarse from just waking up.

########################################

He Shizhou immediately realized this and quickly rubbed his arm again, apologizing softly.

"He Shizhou, Youyou is hungry."

The little guy's eyes were still red and he looked pitiful.

He Shizhou glanced out the window. The setting sun had already dyed half the sky red. It was dusk outside. The two of them had been lying there all day without eating anything, so they must be hungry.

"Baby, wait a minute, I'll go make you some food, okay?"

Luo You originally wanted He Shizhou to carry him there, as he didn't want to be separated from He Shizhou. However, his bottom was still hurting, so he couldn't go with him and could only nod.

He Shizhou got up to pour a glass of water, fed it to the little guy, and then went to the kitchen to cook.

Luo You lay on the bed, staring longingly at the door. When the aroma wafted from the kitchen, he pitifully rubbed his stomach.

Since the little guy was indeed hungry, He Shizhou simply cooked some noodles, then fried a steak, cut it into small pieces, put it on the noodles, and then took it back to the room.

Luo You got up from the bed and sat on the bed sideways, being fed by He Shizhou bite by bite.

After finishing one bowl of noodles, he shook his head and refused to eat any more.

He Shizhou went out and quickly finished the remaining noodles in the pot, which had already clumped together. He then took out the medicine that Su Tao had left behind before leaving earlier that day.

He poured a glass of water, took out the fever-reducing and anti-inflammatory medicine that Su Tao had left behind, and fed it to the little guy.

Although Luo You was afraid of injections, he was still able to take his medicine obediently. So when He Shizhou gave him the medicine, he did not refuse and swallowed it all. However, he had some difficulty taking the medicine and had to drink several mouthfuls of water to swallow one pill, which was quite wasteful of water.

After taking the medicine, Luo You couldn't help but burp. He touched his lower abdomen, which was already bulging. It was half dough and half water, and when he shook it, there was a faint clattering sound.

He Shizhou suppressed a laugh and reached out to touch Luo You's little belly. Luo You shyly pulled the blanket over himself and shrank back inside, leaving only half of his head sticking out.

He Shizhou tidied up his things, then took the ointment and walked to the bedside, slowly lifting the blanket to reveal the little one inside.

"Baby, turn around, I'm going to apply medicine to you."

Luo You glanced at He Shizhou, nodded obediently, and lay down on the bed.

When his fingertips touched her, Luo You subconsciously shrank back, then turned to look at He Shizhou, her face flushed with embarrassment, and tried to pull the blanket over herself.

"No, no, don't apply the medicine."

"Baby, I won't do anything, I'll just put some medicine on it, and it won't hurt anymore after that. Can you just bear with it a little longer?"

Luo You looked at He Shizhou for a while, and finally nodded with a red face. Then she buried her head under the pillow, gripping the pillow tightly with her hands, looking like she was letting He Shizhou bully her.

He Shizhou breathed a sigh of relief and continued to carefully apply the ointment to him.

After finally finishing applying the ointment, He Shizhou put it away, then went to the bathroom to wash his hands before returning to the bedside.

The little guy on the bed had already poked his head out from under the covers and was looking at him with his bright black eyes, his face slightly flushed, looking incredibly cute.

He Shizhou swallowed hard, leaned over and kissed him a few more times on the lips, then sighed and turned to go back to the bathroom.

Having tasted the sweetness, he couldn't stand the little guy's behavior anymore and needed to take a cold shower to calm down.
