It has not rained for a long time, and the whole city is filled with a dry and cold restlessness.
Qiao Xiaomai looked at the time. It was only half past four, and the weather was already gloomy and gloomy. The phone rang, she looked at the number, and a very stereotyped voice came: "Xiaobai has a fever, she keeps talking about you..."
Qiao Xiaomai was anxious, "What's wrong with Xiaobai?"
"She wants to have dinner with you. We'll wait for you downstairs in your company."
Qiao Xiaomai hurriedly told Jin Yezi to leave work early, got off the elevator, and saw a car parked at the intersection opposite the company. She walked over quickly, rolled down the window, and Xiaobai weakly called "Sister Mai."
The child's cheeks were red, and he obviously had a cold. Qiao Xiaomai was angry and anxious: "Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?"
"Sister Mai, I'm not feeling well...I'm very uncomfortable. I woke up this morning with a cough, dry throat, and runny nose. Look, my nose is all red. I feel so uncomfortable..."
Seeing the child's uncomfortable look, Qiao Xiaomai couldn't help but feel guilty. These days, he had indeed neglected Xiaobai too much. How could a grown man take good care of such a small child?
She hurriedly comforted the child, "Don't be afraid, Sister Mai will take you to the doctor right away."
Yi Xiangxi said calmly: "I have already seen the doctor. Many students in the class have the flu. Xiaobai may have been infected by her classmates. I have given her medicine according to the doctor's orders."
She didn't look at Yi Xiangxi and said in a strong voice: "Xiaobai, let's go home. I'll make ginger soup for you. You'll be fine soon."
Yi Xiangxi was still very calm: "It's not convenient for you to take care of me."
She got angry: "What's the inconvenience for me?"
"..."
Yi Xiangxi's face is still very stereotyped, but the subtext is very obvious. In order not to disturb your new and old love, you are so busy preparing for the wedding now, do you have time to take care of your children?
"Sister Mai, I'm hungry, I want to drink porridge..."
The child's words interrupted the argument between the two at the right time. Qiao Xiaomai swallowed down her anger and forced a smile: "Xiao Bai, I'll make vegetable porridge for you when you get home..."
"Grandma Li has cooked my favorite red date porridge and is waiting for us to go back to drink it. Sister Mai, can you go to dad's house tonight? I really hope you accompany me...Sister Mai, please...
………”
The child's voice was full of coquettishness, and his big eyes were full of expectation.
Qiao Xiaomai hesitated for a while, but couldn't refuse at all.
At this time, Xiaobai went to pull the car door down, hugged her waist, and said affectionately: "Sister Mai, please stay with me, I really want to be with you..."
"noob……"
Yi Xiangxi said calmly: "The wind is strong, don't let the wind aggravate the child's cold. Qiao Xiaomai, you get in the car first."
Qiao Maimai could not continue to let the child be blown by the cold wind, and seeing that Xiaobai was not willing to get out of the car and follow her home, he hesitated and had to hold the child in the car.
"Sister Mai is so kind..." The child hugged her and kissed her on the face. Qiao Xiaomai's heart softened and she was speechless.
Along the way, the child drooped due to illness and lost his usual liveliness. He didn't talk much and just fell asleep lazily in her arms. The two adults became even more silent.
Qiao Xiaomai kept massaging Xiaobai's head with her hands. Xiaobai felt very comfortable and muttered: "Sister Mai, press here, um here...it's much better now...Sister Mai, you don't know I have
It’s so uncomfortable, I always feel like falling asleep in class, and I can’t even answer the teacher’s questions…”
