It was his fault as a father for not taking good care of the child, if anything happened to Little Second, he really wouldnât forgive himself.
âI didnât notice either, ah, itâs really my negligence!â Bai Susu said, her eyes shimmering with tears.
She knew the severity of a fever.
âWife, itâs not your fault, itâs me who didnât take good care of the child, itâs me who didnât properly observe the childâs unusualness,â Ye Fan said.
âYe Fan, Little Second will be okay, right!â Bai Susu raised her head, her eyes full of distress and self-blame.
âItâll be okay, it must be okay!â Ye Fan nodded seriously as he watched Bai Susu, giving Little Second the last spoonful of medicine.
âYeah, it must be okay,â Bai Susu nodded, her eyes twinkling with tearful sparkles.
âAlright, letâs wait a bit more, if the medicine doesnât work, weâll go to the hospital,â Ye Fan slowly said as he placed the small bowl on the bedside table.
âDad, Mom, donât worry, Second Sister will definitely be fine!â Little Fourth said, with determination in his eyes.
âDad, Mom, Second Sister will definitely be fine.â
âWe canât sleep, so we might as well stay here with you, staying with Second Sister!â Ye Bing said.
Eldest and Third had both come too.
They couldnât sleep, their hearts filled with worry for Second Sisterâs safety.
âYou guys go back to sleep, itâs so late, be careful not to catch a cold, go to bed, weâre here, thatâs enough!â Ye Fan said.
These children, really⦠theyâre a worry.
Theyâve all come running in the middle of the night.
He knew, all these little ones were worried.
But, worry was of no use.
If they didnât go to rest properly, how would their bodies cope.
âSusu, take the kids and get some rest, Iâll stay here, youâre pregnant, you canât stay up all night, go on!â Ye Fan said as he looked at Bai Susu.
âButâ¦â Bai Susu wanted to say something more but was interrupted by Ye Fan.
âYou go to sleep, donât worry, with me here, what could happen,â Ye Fan spoke up.
âFine, if anything happens, you must call me!â Bai Susu finally left, hesitantly, taking the three little ones to rest.
Ye Fan watched Little Secondâs slightly improved face and breathed a sigh of relief, then pulled the blanket over her and wiped her little face.
Seeing his child like this, Ye Fan truly felt an overwhelming sense of guilt within him.
It was all because he had been careless.
However, the good news was that Little Secondâs face wasnât as red as before and her forehead was not as hot.
It seemed like the fever-reducing medicine was taking effect.
Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at his precious daughter on the bed, his eyes were filled with compassion.
It was good that everything was fine.
At that moment, Bai Susu knocked on the door and came in, wearing her robe.
âIs the child feeling better, her little face doesnât look so red!â Bai Susu walked over, saying.
She really couldnât sleep.
But, she had managed to soothe the children.
âWhy are you still up? What time is it? Youâre carrying a baby, with me here, Little Second is fine!â Ye Fan came to Bai Susu with a mix of three parts reproach and seven parts worry in his eyes.
âI just couldnât sleep from worry, the three little ones are asleep.â Bai Susu said, stretching out her hand to touch Little Secondâs forehead.
Good, the fever had gone down.
She was also relieved.
âYou, you just worry needlessly, with me here, nothing will go wrong, go and sleep, Iâll keep watch here, youâre not alone now, thereâs a baby in your belly,â Ye Fan said.
She was already more than three months pregnant.
This was indeed the time to be cautious.
âI know, this little one also hasnât slept yet, it just kicked me!â Bai Susu said with a smile, touching her slightly protruding belly.
âReally, let me listen!â Ye Fan said, and had Bai Susu sit on the bed while he crouched down with his ear close to Bai Susuâs belly.
He faintly seemed to hear a heartbeat.
Bai Susu watched Ye Fanâs reaction, her face turning slightly red.
This guyâ¦
âI think I heard the heartbeat, itâs amazing,â Ye Fan said, listening again.
It was the first time hearing the childâs heartbeat.
This feeling excited Ye Fan deeply.
So it was possible.
It was truly a novelty.
He would tell the child when they grew up, let them know that while they were still in Mommyâs belly, their dad often listened to their heartbeat, or listened to them playing in the amniotic fluid.
It would be a wonderful surprise.
O(â©_â©)O haha~
Ye Fan smiled brightly as he listened.
Bai Susu watching Ye Fanâs expression, also felt truly blessed.
In this life, it was very lucky to have married Ye Fan.
She loved everyone in this household!
And treasured them!
âAlright, itâs late, you should go sleep now, be careful not to catch cold!â Ye Fan stood up, speaking with evident reluctance.
Though he hated to part with his wife.
But for the wife and babyâs sake, this was necessary.
Pregnant women really shouldnât stay up at night.
âAlright, Iâll go to sleep then, and you keep an eye outâif youâre tired, just sleep!â Bai Susu said.
She knew her body couldnât be overtaxed.
âGo on!â Ye Fan urged.
âAlright, Iâm going!â Bai Susu said, about to turn around.
âWait a second!â Ye Fan called out urgently.
âWhat is it?â Bai Susu was curious.
âA kiss!â As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, he pulled Bai Susu into his arms and bent down to kiss her.
