Mrs. Fu, please be mindful of the appropriate boundaries.

The man placed his palm on her forehead; it was frighteningly hot.

"No, we need to go to the hospital." He pulled the person directly out of the blanket, and Fu Sichen's pitiful strength in pulling the sheet was completely useless.

As the blanket was untied, Yu Shinan felt a chill run down his spine, and the wound on the back of his head seemed to be throbbing with extra pain. He quickly pulled the blanket back over her and wrapped her up tightly again.

Fu Sichen burst into tears, crying, "You bullied me! You all bullied me!"

The man turned around and glared at Yu Qian, who was following behind him.

"I didn't see anything."

Yu Qian quickly clarified that he really didn't see anything; he just glanced at it and saw a blinding white expanse before being wrapped up again.

"go out!"

Yu Shinan rebuked him in a deep voice.

Yu Qian quickly ran outside, "Um, I'll arrange a car, we'll go to the hospital in a bit."

"I'm not going to the hospital! I said I'm not going to the hospital!" Fu Sichen kicked his legs under the covers. The blanket he had been holding tightly was kicked open by her, revealing one of her calves. She kicked his leg hard with her toes.

Yu Shinan was caught in a dilemma. It hurt, but he had already seen it clearly at a glance.

Even through the blanket, one could vividly depict that scene.

Yu Shinan pulled the blanket tighter, then picked her up, blanket and all, and coaxed her like a child, "If you don't go to the hospital, your brain will be damaged and you'll become stupid."

"I'm not going to the hospital." She was wrapped up like a silkworm cocoon, with only her head sticking out. Her face was burning red, tears were in the corners of her eyes, and she spoke weakly, "I'd rather be stupid. If I'm stupid, I won't have to think about anything."

She pressed her forehead against his neck, the heat making her skin feel like it was burning. Yu Shinan couldn't stand her self-pity. She was just a man; was it really worth it for Han Yi?

But saying this at this time is like rubbing salt into her wound.

Yu Shinan didn't say anything more. He placed her on the edge of the bed, turned around to pour her some water, and held it to her lips. "Drink some water first."

The fever made her dehydrated, and her once pink and tender lips became dry.

Fu Sichen reached out to take the cup, but before she could even extend her arm, the blanket was grabbed, and she was wrapped in a silk handkerchief, unable to move.

Yu Shinan held onto the blanket with one hand and fed her with a cup in the other, afraid that if the blankets on her body came loose, nothing would be covered up.

Fu Sichen tilted her head back to drink water, but choked after only a couple of sips. He poured the cup too quickly, and Fu Sichen coughed violently, spilling most of the water from the cup, wetting the blankets on her body. Some water even slid down her neck, making her feel cool. Fu Sichen suddenly shivered.

The busier I am, the more chaotic things get.

Yu Shinan called for Yu Qian outside, but he had already run off somewhere.

He wanted to call a waitress to help him, but no one came after he called several times.

Fu Sichen looked down at the man's large hand gripping the blanket in front of her tightly, and her nose suddenly stung with tears. "Miss Ruan, aren't you very beautiful and charming?"

Yu Shinan turned his face, and she looked at him, tears streaming down her cheeks.

It felt like her tears had pierced a hole in my chest, and my heart ached.

"Are all men like this? They can fall for other women even when they have a lover?" But why is it that she's never the one who falls for someone?

Fu Sichen was extremely sad; she was insanely jealous.

"Not all men are like that." Yu Shinan reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "She's not as popular as you are. Once you're better, have a good talk with Han Yi. Maybe... it's not as bad as you think. After all, he's the father of your child."

It would have been better if he hadn't said that; the moment he mentioned the word "father," Fu Sichen's tears fell even harder.

She choked up, "Yan Zheng is very well-behaved and obedient."

Yu Shinan didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just went along with her words, "I've never seen your child. Let me see him sometime. He must take after you; he's very obedient and well-behaved."

"Not like me." Fu Sichen stared at the face in front of her; Yan Zheng didn't look like her.

Doesn't resemble her? Then it resembles Han Yi.

Yu Shinan was speechless. The child naturally resembled his father, but saying it now would surely hurt her.

Si Chen is so young, still a child herself, yet she's willing to have a child with Han Yi. So many young couples around them get married but don't want children, afraid of being tied down.

If it weren't for genuine love and affection, one wouldn't raise a child and tie oneself down during the prime of their youth.

It's precisely because I like someone that I find it hard to accept when they make a mistake.

"Don't think too much. You're burning up like this. I'll take you to get an injection. Rest and clear your head before you think about it." Yu Shinan brushed a strand of hair from her forehead and comforted her in a deep voice, "Last night was just a misunderstanding. Yu Qian was confused. It had nothing to do with Han Yi. He was just trying to get justice for Miss Ruan."

Fu Sichen lowered his eyes. "Brother Nan, did you only start contacting Miss Ruan because of me?"

"No." Yu Shinan quickly denied it, then sighed, realizing it wasn't the time to explain.

"Listen to me, go see a doctor first." Yu Shinan paused, "Can you change your clothes yourself?"

"I'm not going. I'll take a nap and I'll feel better after a nap." Fu Sichen was stubborn. She must look terrible right now. She had so much fever that she had no energy and didn't want to move. She just wanted to lie down and sleep.

Seeing that she was listless and like a fish out of water, Yu Shinan simply picked her up and, ignoring her resistance, said, "Go get a shot, and you'll be fine once the fever goes down."

Yu Qian had the driver wait outside, and then he saw his cousin come out carrying a quilt.

This……

However, Yu Qian didn't dare to say much and obediently opened the car door for them to get in.

This place is remote, and the hospitals are all small, so the procedures aren't too complicated.

Seeing a doctor is quick, though.

Fu Sichen just had a cold and fever, and had his blood tested and his blood count checked.

The doctor wanted to give her an injection in her buttocks, but Fu Sichen absolutely refused.

That's true, how can you fight her in her current state?

Finally, they started an IV drip.

She stretched out one arm so the nurse could give her an injection.

Yu Shinan asked him to prepare a ward, but the doctor said there were no wards available. A few days ago, a bus was involved in a car accident, and the minor cases were being treated here urgently and had not yet been transferred.

Besides, it's just a cold, nothing serious. Why stay in the hospital? You can just go home after the IV drip is finished.

The infusion area was packed with people.

Yu Shinan sat on a chair to the side, holding her. He regretted bringing her out like this. Given the girl's pride, she was only lacking energy because she was sick. If she recovered, she would probably complain a lot.

Fu Sichen had been burning with fever for quite a while, and he was indeed in a lot of pain.

I fell asleep as soon as the IV drip started.

I threw up once in the middle, and it was a mess.

The nurse was startled. The skin test was normal, but she still called the doctor to come and check and changed her medication.

Yu Shinan looked worriedly at the little girl nestled in his arms and asked the doctor, "What's wrong with her?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the fever has lasted a bit too long. Let's see after this IV drip is finished." The old doctor was quite calm.

The man felt a little relieved; he had just been sweating profusely from anxiety.

She vomited, drank some water, and fell asleep again. This time, she slept much more soundly than before. Her little brows relaxed, and her mouth was slightly open, just like a goldfish's mouth.

So cute!

And drooling.

Yu Shinan chuckled silently. He turned his head to look for tissues but couldn't find any. The place was rudimentary, and the medical staff were too busy to take care of him. Instead, an aunt next to him asked him what he needed and gave him a pack of tissues.

He used a tissue to wipe the drool from the corner of her mouth, his eyes filled with tenderness and a smile.

His rough fingertips accidentally brushed against her lips from the edge of the toilet paper; they were soft.

Yu Shinan didn't quickly remove his hand. He lingered, gently caressing her lips with his fingertips. Under the guise of wiping her saliva, the maddening longing in his bones couldn't be hidden even as she slept.

Even though we've known each other for many years, this is probably the first time I've looked at her up close like this.

Her facial skin was very delicate, like a child's, fair and smooth without a single blemish.

She has a small frame and a small overall size. Her features are delicate and petite, very tender, soft, charming, beautiful, and cute.

Yu Shinan thought about her asking him, "Is Ruan Weiyue pretty?"

In his opinion, she was definitely not as pretty as him.

But he knew the deeper meaning behind her question: as a wife, why would she care about her husband's liking for another woman? Was it because the other woman was prettier?

But this kind of question has never been solved.

He cared about her and didn't want her to be sad.

But beneath this superficial concern lies a very dark thought.

Han Yi doesn't want you, but I do.

But he absolutely couldn't say that; feelings are a complicated thing.

The old folks often say, "I'd rather tear down ten temples than break up one marriage."

Such selfish thoughts can only pass through one's mind.

Even if Han Yi turned back, he still felt wronged for Si Chen.

She deserves to be treated with unwavering devotion for a lifetime and shouldn't have to endure the hurt caused by worldly relationships.

She did nothing wrong, yet she has to bear the consequences.

However, he couldn't make the decision for her, and seeing her in such distress, he couldn't say anything.

If Han Yi turns back and never makes the same mistake again, and if he can cherish her from now on, and if she can forgive Han Yi and accept his past mistakes, and continue down the same path with him.

Yu Shinan took a deep breath.

Then, no matter how many ideas he has, it will all be in vain.

The man tightened his arms around her, wrapping her tightly in the blanket, not revealing an inch of her skin.

Her bare arms were pressed tightly against his chest, warmed by his body heat, so she wouldn't get cold.

He placed his palm on her forehead and felt a slight dampness of sweat, making her less dry and hot. Yu Shinan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't wrap her up so tightly. It's not that cold. She'll feel stuffy if she sweats..." the aunt next to him reminded him. "Don't wrap her up in the blanket. It's better to loosen it and let her breathe. If you do that, her clothes will probably be soaked."

Yu Shinan responded with a slur, his fingers fumbling with the blanket covering her for a long time, but he only managed to remove a small section around her neck.

With her beautiful collarbone exposed, Yu Shinan dared not make another move.

Seeing the aunt next to him staring at him, Yu Shinan, unusually embarrassed, explained, "She's wearing too little."

The little girl's fair shoulder was partially exposed, a smooth, bare section of her shoulder...

The aunt didn't say anything more.

She just looked at him and asked, "My little wife?"

"..."

"This young lady is lucky; her husband knows how to cherish her." The aunt, who was about the same age as Ding Jing, joked in her somewhat unintelligible hometown dialect. There were quite a few people here for IV drips, and while the children were accompanied by adults, how many of the adults were with them?

Even old women like her come to get their IV drips by themselves.

This burly man carefully held the girl in his arms, his eyes never leaving her. Afraid that her hands, which were sticking out needles, would get cold, he gently cupped her hands with both of his palms.

Sometimes, you don't necessarily have to do anything to feel that he cares about you; you can sense it just from his eyes and actions.

Yu Shinan remained silent. It was inappropriate for him to carry Si Chen out like this, even though not many people here knew her. To avoid trouble, he simply didn't explain further.

After Fu Sichen finished the two bottles of IV fluids, she was covered in sweat and felt much better, but her body felt sticky and uncomfortable. She tried to stretch her hand out but couldn't, feeling as if she were tied up with ropes. When she opened her eyes, she met Nan Ge's eyes. As if he already knew she was awake, he asked her in a low voice, "Don't move. Don't let yourself get cold after sweating."

Then I asked her, "Are you feeling any better?"

Fu Sichen's gaze fell on his face. The feeling of seeing him the moment she opened her eyes was very...

My heart ached, and my eyes welled up with tears.

She turned her face away and looked around at her surroundings. Everyone was receiving IV drips; there were quite a few people there.

Some were asleep, some were staring at the IV drip, and some were looking at them.

Fu Sichen blushed and looked away. She was wrapped in a blanket and held in his arms like a child, which was very strange.

And she...

When you're feeling unwell, you're so focused on the pain that you feel like you're about to die, you don't pay attention to any of these other things.

But once you feel light and your mind is clear, it's a completely different story.

She wanted to stand up, but how?

The hotel bathrobe was uncomfortable, and her own pajamas were already soaked. Fu Sichen was so uncomfortable that she didn't care about anything else. Even though she was wrapped in a blanket, she felt like she was walking naked on the street.

She couldn't help but shrink deeper into the blankets and snuggle into his arms.

Yu Shinan hurriedly grasped her hand with the needle in it, "Be careful with the needle."

Fu Sichen really wanted to cover her face with something. She bit her lip lightly, "How much longer until we finish losing the money?"

"There are two bottles left."

Fu Sichen looked at the IV drip tube, and the headache that had finally subsided started again.

"Is it possible to avoid losing?"

"No." Yu Shinan looked down at her, seeing her eyes blinking and her teeth biting her lip, unable to speak. He roughly knew what was going on.

I know she must be embarrassed right now.

"Take another nap, and when you wake up, it will be almost over," Yu Shinan suggested to her.

"I can't sleep, I can't sleep." With so many people in the room, she really...

"Aren't there any hospital rooms available?"

"There aren't enough rooms." Yu Shinan looked up at the IV drip and explained to her, "After these two bottles are finished, we'll go back and won't be seeing a doctor here anymore. We were in a rush today; your fever was too high."

What could Fu Sichen say? She was making a scene and saying she wanted to go back. Not only Yu Shinan, but everyone around her couldn't stand it.

"Your man is watching you intently, worried sick about just a cold. Don't get angry with him and make him feel awkward and worried. You can go home after you finish the IV drip."

The aunt tried to persuade her, saying that the girl was being pretentious, immature, and didn't know how to care for others.

Fu Sichen wasn't stupid; he could tell from the disapproval in the other person's words of advice.

Fu Sichen blushed deeply and fell silent.

She nestled in his arms and didn't move.

Yu Shinan also felt embarrassed. He didn't explain too much because he was afraid that Si Chen would be misunderstood. After all, it would look strange to come out wrapped in a blanket like that.

But saying he's her man in front of her is still kind of... weird.

Fortunately, Fu Sichen didn't react; he probably didn't recognize it.

The nurse came over to remove the injection from the aunt, and the seat next to her became empty.

The aunt said goodbye to the couple when she left.

After she left, Yu Shinan was about to speak when Fu Sichen asked him in a hoarse voice, "When did you become my man? How could you say that to someone like that?"
