Chu He was at a loss for a reaction.
However, given Baby Chuâs current condition, he was not to have any ice cream, so she had no choice but to coax him. âOkay, okay. When youâve completely recovered, you can have some ice cream, okay?â
Baby Chu refused to give up. âI just want some! I just want some! Iâve been holding it in for a long time. I feel like without ice cream, Iâd rather die!â
Hearing this, Youyou mocked, âImpressive, Baby Chu. You actually know how to use idioms! Looks like my teaching you wasnât in vain!â
!!
âHmph!â Baby Chu ignored Youyou.
Little Yichen said, âLet him eat. I think heâs dying to go back to the quarantine zone.â
Baby Chu immediately cowered upon hearing this. âWhat does eating ice cream have to do with the quarantine zone?â
âThe reason why the doctor would not let you have any ice cream is because itâs cold and sweet. If your cough comes back and you get pneumonia, youâll have to be isolated again. Hahaha!â
Little Yichen urged him, âGo ahead and have some. Do you want me to buy some for you?â
Yun Shishi reminded him weakly, âLittle Yichen, you canât leave the ward yet!â
âWell then⦠Mommy can buy it for him!â
Baby Chu suddenly snorted angrily. âForget it! I donât want it anymore!â
Everyone smiled knowingly. Among them, Baby Chu was probably the most cowardly and afraid of death.
Coercion and bribery were useless. However, if told that eating ice cream would aggravate his condition, it meant that he would have to be put on countless IV drips and take countless injections. That was enough to put him off.
The boy raised his hand to show his mother the dense patch of needle marks and the drip needle that remained inserted, seeking comfort. âMom, look at my handâ¦â
After being on the drip for a long time, both of his arms were a little swollen. With a pinch, a dent appeared.
Due to the long-term infusion, the location of needle insertion had gone from the left hand to the right hand, then to the forehead and later on, the back of the leg⦠In short, Baby Chu felt as though every time he drank water, water would seep out of these densely packed needle holes.
âTsk, tsk, tsk. How squeamish! I have more injections than you every day. Did I complain?!â
Baby Chu glanced at Little Yichen gloomily. âWho wants to compare with a non-human like you!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Would a normal child play with a gun! Would a normal child practice handstands in the ward when he was so sick!
âMommy, Iâm telling you, Little Yichen is a super freak! For a period of time, he did handstands in the ward every day.â
At that time, Baby Chu was already lying limply on the bed, and it was basically difficult for him to get up. The torture of the influenza, coupled with an extended period of lying in bed turned him into basically lifeless.
Little Yichen explained, âAt that time, I felt weak all over, so I thought I should exercise. Otherwise, I wouldnât be able to get out of bed.â
Yun Shishi was stumped to hear this. The doctor and nurse had told her about this. Little Yichen thought that his muscle weakness was caused by being bedridden for a long time, so he forced himself to do handstands and push-ups. With his condition deteriorating so much, he could still do several sets a day.
What seemed even crazier was that his appetite was rather good. It was so good that it made oneâs hair stand on end. Because he had overeaten and gotten into a cycle of eating and vomiting, his stomach was almost fried.
In fact, his muscles were weak because of the long-term infusion. In addition, his nutrition was lacking, and he could not eat and drink anything he fancied, and only in appropriate amounts.
Little Yichen did not understand all these things, and ended up training in secret.
