Chapter 192: 192: Feverish Person
The tall man was completely drenched, drops of water trickled down his ink-black short hair, sliding over his firm chin and sexy Adam’s apple, meandering deep into his collarbone…
Li Shengxiao cradled the little boy in his arms, who had already fainted from drowning, and placed him on the ground. “He’s been underwater for quite some time; I need to press the water he swallowed out of him first!”
He composedly and coolly began to perform emergency CPR on the little one lying on the ground.
“…Mm.” Rong Yan watched the snowy-whiteness of Li Duidui’s almost translucent little face—which had been hard won from someone’s splutter, now completely drained of color, shockingly pale.
Fortunately, Little Baby didn’t scare her. After Li Shengxiao administered a brief CPR, the little body suddenly curled up, and with a retch, he began to vomit the water from his stomach.
Despite the severe discomfort etched across his beautiful little face, furrowed into a tight bundle, Rong Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s good that the water came out.
Vomiting water meant there was no longer a threat to life.
Rong Yan recalled her own leap into the water, seizing Little Baby’s icy hand, and was seized by retrospective fear. Her whole body couldn’t stop trembling…
If she had been even a moment later in remembering to use the location binding, her precious Baby might have sunk into the water. Even if he were found later, it would’ve been too late.
Thank goodness… thank goodness… Rong Yan’s heart pounded; she had never been so scared before.
“Wah!” The pretty little boy spat out quite a lot of water. His pallid complexion finally showed a slight improvement, but his consciousness still hadn’t returned. In his dazed state, he kept calling for his mom, “Mom… Mom…”
Rong Yan couldn’t care about anything else and immediately knelt beside him, lowering her head and softly calling to him, “Duidui, can you hear what Mom is saying?”
“Cough cough cough…” The little boy on the ground whimpered and coughed violently a few times. His pretty little face was painfully pale, his usually rosy lips now bluish, eyebrows tightly furrowed. Shivering uncontrollably, his once tightly gripped hand now loosened, and a shiny object fell into the grass beside him and disappeared, continually murmuring, “Mom… Mom…”
Li Shengxiao reached out to touch the little fellow’s forehead, his dark brows furrowing deeply, then he turned to Rong Yan, “He’s running a fever!”
“A fever?”
Rong Yan also reached out her hand, touching Little Baby’s forehead, which was indeed scorchingly hot.
“How could this be?”
“It’s due to being immersed in water for too long; it has led to a lung infection. I’ll give Gu Ming a heads up, and ask Cui Jiangjing to hurry over!” Li Shengxiao made a decisive decision, picked up the person from the ground, and said to Rong Yan, “You don’t need to worry, he vomited the water in his stomach, which means you arrived just in time. Duidui is not in any immediate danger for now. It’s no use worrying at the moment. Listen to me, go change your clothes first!”
She was soaked through, her hair dripping with water, her lips carrying the mark of a row of teeth, had she not noticed herself?
Knowing she probably wouldn’t listen to him, Li Shengxiao added, “You wouldn’t want Duidui to wake up looking for you, only to find you laid up in a hospital bed, would you?”
Rong Yan was still hesitant.
“Yanyan, I would worry!” The messy hair by her ear was swept up, tucked behind her ear, the man’s coarse fingertips grazing her auricle, igniting a spark of electricity.
Rong Yan took a deep breath and clenched her fist in agreement, “Alright, I’ll change clothes. You take Duidui back to the hotel first, find a room for him, and change his wet clothes.”
“And yourself,” her gaze fell on the dripping wet, noble-looking man’s hair, concern slipping out involuntarily, “You should change into a set of clothes, take a shower too. Please, don’t catch a cold.”
“…” Li Shengxiao’s eyes darkened by the second, storm clouds gathering.. Damn it! If it weren’t for the little fellow in his arms, he would have already pulled the little woman in front of him into his embrace and captured her parting lips!
