Chapter 210: Entertaining Guests with a Warm House, Buying Cattle and Horses (3)_1
Mo Yan knew she couldn’t show even a hint of softness toward this fellow, otherwise, once it clung to her, she wouldn’t be able to shake it off. So, she left without paying attention to its movements.
The Red Python stared resentfully at Mo Yan, who didn’t even look back, feeling that its snake life was hopeless...
When she returned to Xin Er’s room, she saw that Xin Er had not woken up, but Zhenzhen had fallen asleep by the bedside. Mo Yan smiled, took off Zhenzhen’s shoes, and gently carried him to the other end of the bed to let him sleep well.
She sat by the bed for a while, watching her siblings’ sweet sleeping faces, and Mo Yan also felt a bit tired, so she lay down at the bedside.
"Mmm...mm... It hurts... Sister, Xin Er is in pain... It’s so uncomfortable..."
Mo Yan did not know how much time had passed when she hazily heard Xin Er’s whimpers. She suddenly woke up, turned to look at Xin Er, and saw her furrowing her brows tightly, her face crimson, and murmuring incessantly.
"Xin Er, wake up, don’t scare your sister, please wake up!" Mo Yan called out to Xin Er in panic, gently patting her face, trying to awaken her from the nightmare. But when she felt her touch, it was scorching hot—Xin Er had developed a high fever.
A jolt went through Mo Yan’s heart; she knew something was wrong and regretted not having taken Xin Er to see the doctor in time. If the fever continued like this, she might be burnt up by it.
She called out for a long time but couldn’t wake her, instead awakening Zhenzhen, who saw his second sister’s lips were so burnt they were peeling, which frightened him until his face turned pale.
"Zhenzhen, quickly go and call Dad over," Mo Yan ordered as she frantically dressed Xin Er, urging Zhenzhen to call for help, her heart filled with self-reproach.
