Chapter 269: Chapter 162: Look How Angry You’ve Made Your Dad! [Major Chapter 7,000 Words]_1

By nightfall, Ye Fan had just lain down on the bed when he was startled awake by a knock on the door.

“Who is it?” Ye Fan sat up, staring at the doorway.

“Daddy, it’s me, Second Sister has a fever, her forehead is so hot!” That’s when Little Fourth Ye Jie pushed the door open in a panic.

The little figure stood at the door, filled with anxiety.

She had been sleeping soundly when she heard Second Sister Ye Qing talking in her sleep and immediately woke up her elder sisters. The moment they turned on the light, they saw Second Sister’s cheeks flushed red, and when they felt her forehead, it was frighteningly burning hot.

Without hesitation, she ran to find Dad.

This was the first time she had seen something like this.

Normally, none of the four of them got seriously ill, and a little cold here and there would be cured with some medicine.

But this time, seeing Second Sister with such a fever, it scared them all.

“Okay, I’ll go and have a look right now!” Ye Fan immediately got out of bed.

“Ye Fan, I’m coming too!” Bai Susu promptly got up, putting on a coat.

Ye Fan also draped on a coat and walked straight out.

Upon reaching the doorway, he saw Little Fourth standing barefoot on the floor.

Although the floor was carpeted, it was naturally damp, especially at night.

The little one had run over without wearing shoes.

Ah, truly worrying!

“Why aren’t you wearing shoes? Barefoot like this, be careful not to catch a cold!” Ye Fan instantly picked up Little Fourth from the ground.

“Daddy, I was just too worried and forgot to put them on!” Little Fourth said a bit sheepishly.

She was just, too anxious.

In the moment, she had forgotten to wear her shoes.

Seeing dad’s expression, it seemed a bit angry.

Next time, she would definitely remember.

“Even so, you can’t just run out like that. Next time you must wear your shoes. You should know that the floor can be very cold at night and dampness seeps in, making it very easy to get sick!” Ye Fan spoke sternly.

These little ones really don’t know how to take care of themselves at all.

“I understand, daddy!” Little Fourth Ye Jie nodded her head.

‘Daddy, don’t be mad, I’ll remember next time, I promise!’ said Little Fourth, a bit aggrieved.

She knew that Daddy was worried she might fall ill.

But it was just that she had forgotten for a moment.

Besides, she thought her health wasn’t too bad!

“I’m not angry, I’m just worried about you all!” Ye Fan said, holding Little Fourth as he came into their bedroom.

Bai Susu followed him inside.

As soon as they entered, they saw Second Sister with a flushed face and her forehead sweaty.

“Tonight, you three go and sleep with Mommy, Daddy will stay here to take care of Second Sister.” Ye Fan said, looking at the few little ones.

He could take care of her by himself.

With the three little ones sleeping in their own room with Bai Susu, he could be at ease.

“You three go to sleep in Mommy and Daddy’s room, darling, then I’ll go make some fever-reducing medicine for the child!” Bai Susu said, her eyes brimming with distress at the sight of Second Sister so ill.

Fine just a moment ago, how had she come down with a fever?

Seeing her little face burning red, Bai Susu reached out to touch her forehead, feeling the intense heat.

“Okay, darling, you go make the medicine, and I’ll take her temperature!” Ye Fan said, pulling out a thermometer from the nearby cabinet and tucking it under Second Sister’s armpit.

He then brought in a basin of warm water and began to gently wipe down Second Sister’s little face.

Seeing his child suffer like this, Ye Fan felt an extreme pang of heartache.

It was unbearably hard for him to watch his child in distress, wishing he could bear the sickness for them.

Ye Fan wiped Second Sister Ye Qing’s neck and face, damp with sweat.

This child, oh…

“Alright, I’ve just cooled down the medicine using two cups, it’s not too hot now, she can drink it!” Bai Susu, carrying the prepared medicine, walked in.

“Mm, okay, let me check the temperature, it’s 38.8 degrees. First, let her take some fever-reducing medicine, if that doesn’t work, we’ll have to take her to the hospital for IV treatment.” Ye Fan took the medicine and said.

“Okay, I’ll pick her up and you can feed her!” Bai Susu, full of tenderness, lifted Second Sister up and tucked the quilt around her to prevent her from getting cold.

Ye Fan scooped a small spoonful of medicine, blew on it, and began to feed it to Second Sister at her mouth.

Gradually, Second Sister drank the medicine in a daze.

At that moment, Little Fourth came over, unable to sleep.

‘Daddy, Mommy, Second Sister is alright, isn’t she?’ Little Fourth asked, looking worriedly at them.

She was very concerned!

What had happened earlier had really scared her.

She was now very worried about Second Sister.

She was truly frightened something terrible might happen to her.

“It’s okay, she should get better after taking some medicine.” Ye Fan said.

He was also worried that if he made it sound too serious, it would scare Little Fourth Ye Jie.

“That’s a relief, we were all so worried. But how come Second Sister is so hot, like a furnace?” Little Fourth Ye Jie curiously climbed onto the bed beside her Second Sister, touched by her red face and full of concern.

She couldn’t comprehend how Second Sister could suddenly become so burningly hot.

“She’s got a fever, which can happen if you catch a cold and it gets worse, but there were no signs of a cold when we came back, so how did she suddenly get a fever?” Ye Fan was also puzzled.

It was no use thinking about it now.

More importantly, they needed to get Second Sister to take her medicine; perhaps then she’d feel better.

Fevers in small children can be quite serious.

Many children deteriorate from a severe fever, and if not treated in time, it can damage their young brains and lead to lifelong impairment.

Ye Fan was now extremely worried!
