Chapter 3 Don't Go

Ye Beibei looked at the familiar face in front of her. He frowned and thought hard, isn't this his police neighbor Xiao Li? Why is he next to his bed?

"Mo Ting...What's wrong with Mo Ting?" Ye Beibei subconsciously felt that Xiao Li's visit to her must be related to Xiao Mo Ting, but as soon as she spoke, she realized that her voice was hoarse and her throat hurt.

"Mo Ting is okay, it's you, you have a fever!" Xiao Li sat upright beside Ye Beibei's bed, his waist straight, his already broad shoulders fully open, his appearance more serious and solemn, looking straight at Ye Beibei

After Xiao Li led Xiao Moting back home, he took a bath with the child first. After coming out, he found two cold medicines for the child to take to prevent Xiao Moting from getting a fever due to the rain. Then he went to the cupboard to find some pieces of ginger and peeled them.

Wash and cut into thin strips, add a spoonful of sugar to the pot to boil, add shredded ginger to extract the juice, add two bowls of water, lower the heat, and close the lid of the pot.

While he was taking a bath, he thought about whether Ye Beibei would have a fever? She was pregnant and couldn't take medicine even if she was sick. He boiled some ginger soup, gave Mo Ting a bowl later, and then gave Ye Beibei a bowl with his child.

Beibei sent over a bowl.

The ginger soup was ready, Xiao Li coaxed Xiao Moting to drink a bowl while it was hot, and then asked Xiao Moting to knock on Ye Beibei's door while he filled a bowl of ginger soup and waited.

However, Xiao Moting knocked on Ye Beibei's door for a long time, but there was no response. With his sharp intuition as a policeman, Xiao Li felt that something had happened to Ye Beibei. He quickly found the spare key that Ye Beibei had given to Xiao Moting, and used the key while

Opening the door of Ye Beibei's house, she greeted, "Miss Ye, Beibei!"

Entering the house, Xiao Li quickly looked around. There was no one in the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Finally, he looked at the bedroom and saw Ye Beibei curled up on the bed covered with a quilt.

He greeted Ye Beibei twice, but Ye Beibei made no move, and then walked into Ye Beibei's bedroom.

Ye Beibei, who was lying on the bed, had an abnormal flush on her face. He subconsciously touched her forehead, which was very hot. Just as he was about to reach out and shake her awake, he realized that the strap of Ye Beibei's pajamas had slipped to her shoulders, exposing her body.

A piece of white skin, the fair and delicate skin glowed with a pearl-like luster. Xiao Li felt a little dazzling, and hurriedly looked at her pillowcase, and just opened his mouth to call Ye Beibei.

Ye Beibei felt dizzy and had a headache when she opened her eyes. She smiled feebly and weakly at Xiao Li.

"Do you want to go to the hospital?" Xiao Li knew that normal people should go to the hospital when they are sick and have a fever, but this was the first time he encountered a pregnant woman with a fever.

"No need." Ye Beibei felt the chill on his shoulders, glanced at Xiao Li who was not squinting, and pulled up the quilt with some embarrassment, "If I go to the hospital, I can't take medicine in this condition. I'll be fine after some sleep!"

"

"I made ginger soup. You can drink a bowl and work up a sweat!" After Xiao Li finished speaking, he got up in a hurry and went home to get the ginger soup.

Ye Beibei disliked drinking ginger soup the most. She looked at the porcelain bowl Xiao Li handed over to her. The steaming liquid in it was so spicy that she felt a little embarrassed. Xiao Li thought she was afraid of being burned, so he lowered his head and kept blowing on it.

Knowing that she couldn't take medicine or have a fever for too long due to her current condition, Ye Beibei held the bowl and drank two big mouthfuls of ginger soup as if she was about to die. "It's so spicy!" She coughed violently, and her face that was already hot instantly became

Her face was deep red and tears were streaming down her face. Xiao Li hurriedly found a towel for her and asked her to wipe her face.

After Ye Beibei drank the ginger soup and lay down, Xiao Li covered her with a quilt, covering her from all sides, and told her: "Nothing except the head is allowed to be exposed. Just sweat when you go out!"

"Okay." Ye Beibei endured the buzzing in her head and forced a smile at Xiao Li. She was not his, and she didn't want him to worry too much and let him cocoon her.

Usually rolled up in quilt.

Seeing Ye Beibei falling asleep in a daze, Xiao Li went home and arranged for Xiao Moting to sleep. He went back to Ye Beibei's room to take care of her. Seeing Ye Beibei sleeping unsteadily and tossing and turning, he often had to cover her with a quilt.

, he simply sat beside her bed and listened to the ticking sound of the alarm clock.

As a result, in the middle of the night, Ye Beibei's fever still hadn't gone away. Sometimes she was awake, sometimes she was talking nonsense, sometimes she was pulling him to prevent him from leaving, and sometimes she was so hot that she wanted to lift the quilt off her body.

Xiao Li kept covering her with a quilt and wiping her sweat. He was so busy that he was sweating. He had no experience in taking care of patients, so he relied on his intuition to cover Ye Beibei's forehead with a cold towel, and went home to get some high-strength liquor.

, dipped cotton wool into the leaf beibei and gently rubbed the palms of the hands to do physical cooling.

While he was busy, he heard Ye Beibei murmuring, "Don't go, don't go..."

Xiao Li was startled for a moment and glanced at Ye Beibei. He saw that her eyes were still closed and her face was flushed. He realized that she had a fever and was talking nonsense. He only heard her say vaguely, "In the middle of the month... in the middle of the month..."

After hearing this, Xiao Li hurriedly got up and walked out. Even if he peeked into someone's privacy unintentionally, it would be considered unkind, because it was very rude and would hurt others. He thought he should get out of the way. But just as he walked to the door, he heard Ye Beibei again.

Whispering, "Don't go, don't go..." He looked back at her and saw her lying alone on the bed like a young baby. He suddenly felt very distressed that such a beautiful and gentle woman was wandering away with her child.

, there must be secrets, emotions or hurts that cannot be spoken out deep down in her heart. It was only at the most vulnerable moment that her body found an outlet to vent.

Xiao Li walked back to Ye Beibei's bed and reached out to hold his hand under her quilt, but was caught firmly by her backhand, as if he was grasping the last life-saving straw.

In fact, he was very afraid that Ye Beibei would talk nonsense again. He was not used to peeking into other people's secrets, especially Ye Beibei's. Fortunately, she fell asleep this time, pursed her chapped lips, and didn't make any sound again.

The sound of breathing is soft and weak.

But the hands that refused to let go in his sleep and the childish attachment made Xiao Li's heart completely soften.

When Ye Beibei woke up, it was already bright, and the half-open screen window was still there, blocking most of the light. She felt that her whole body was wet and greasy, and even the quilt covering her was hot, but her body felt much lighter.

, I moved my head, but I didn’t feel out of place, and I seemed to be much more energetic.

After a while, the bedroom door was pushed open, and a little head poked in, and then the aroma of rice porridge wafted in. "Mo Ting, come in!" Ye Beibei waved to the child at the door.

"Ah! Dad, sister is awake!" Following the cheers, Xiao Moting ran to Ye Beibei's bed.

"Are you awake?" Soon, Xiao Li pushed in the door wearing an apron, a white shirt and beige casual pants. The usually strict policeman looked like a family man.
