After Xiao Mei left the room quietly, Xi Xiaye stood up slowly and looked out of the window. The sun was still high up in the vast, blue sky, creating a refreshing scene she enjoyed.

She stretched her back and grabbed her phone that was being charged and gave Mu Lingshi a call.

The call connected in just a moment and Mu Lingshi's anxious voice reached Xi Xiaye's ear. "You finally called back! Please come to Hospital T right now. Xiao Cheng is having a fever. Grandfather and Grandmother aren't around and I'm freaking out. Aunt Fang and I are heading to the hospital. Come over right away. He's throwing a tantrum!"

Xi Xiaye's expression froze when she heard Mu Lingshi. Her face turned pale as she took a deep breath when she could hear Mu Xiaocheng wailing over the call. She then replied, "Oh dear...what happened? Please take care of him for now. I'll rush over now!"

"Alright, we'll be arriving at the hospital soon. Your phone was switched off just now, so I called my brother. I guess he's coming over as well."

"Mmm, I'll head over now. I'll call you again once I arrive!"

Xi Xiaye quickly switched off her laptop and left her office in a hurry after she grabbed her handbag. Thankfully, it was not during rush hour, so she arrived at the hospital as fast as she could. The doctor was checking Mu Xiaocheng when she found Mu Lingshi.

"39 degrees?! Why is he being sent in so late?" The doctor frowned.

Mu Lingshi spoke up, "I noticed that something was wrong with him after breakfast this morning, but I didn't want to feed him any medicine without instructions, so I gave him a Fever-aid which was effective in the beginning, but the fever came back later on and got worse, so Aunt Fang and I..."

She looked at Xi Xiaye apologetically. "I'm sorry, Sister-in-law..."

"Don't worry about it for now. Doctor, is there a way to help my son right now? He just won't stop crying. Please do something to relieve him of his fever!" Xi Xiaye looked really worried as she held Mu Xiaocheng in her arms although he still continued to cry. It was breaking her heart!

"I'll prepare to give him an IV drip." The doctor gave Mu Xiaocheng a glance before writing a prescription. "Go and queue up at the hall after paying at the counter!"

Aunt Fang instantly went to queue up while Xi Xiaye brought Mu Xiaocheng into the hall and sat down in a corner. Her face seemed pale.

"Don't worry too much about it. I'm sure Xiao Cheng will be fine. It's common for children to get sick during this season, but he'll get better soon," Mu Lingshi comforted her as she stroked her stomach. At times, she could feel the baby inside her slowly growing. Needless to say, she was really excited and looked forward to the arrival of her child.

Xi Xiaye nodded and took a deep breath. "Don't cry anymore, my child. I'm right here with you. Let me see. Is it that bad? You'll be fine soon, you'll be fine..."

"How is it?"

They heard the sound of hastened footsteps and the man appeared before them moments later.

"Brother, you're here!" Mu Lingshi stood up.

Mu Yuchen went towards Xi Xiaye and Mu Xiaocheng. He placed his hand onto Mu Xiaocheng's forehead, the high temperature immediately making him frown. He turned towards Mu Lingshi and asked, "What happened? That's a really high fever!"

"I'm sorry...I didn't expect it to be this serious. I should've sent him to the hospital earlier," Mu Lingshi apologized as guilt filled her.

"We'll leave this matter for later. The nurse is coming now."
