Ye Yuwei brought the spoon to Xixi’s mouth, but the little girl shook her head in refusal

Xixi began to cry loudly when Gu Juexi grabbed her head with one hand to keep her still.

“Be good, Xixi. Mommy will give you sweets after you take your medicine.” The medicine in the spoon spilled as Ye Yuwei tried to persuade Xixi to take it.

Xixi pursed her lips and scrunched her face up when the medicine got on her lips.

“You won’t recover if you don’t take the medicine, Xixi,” Ye Xicheng said, leaning on Gu Juexi’s knee while holding his sister’s hand.

Xixi refused to listen and continued to purse her lips.

Yuan Mo looked at Xixi who was still crying loudly and couldn’t think of a way to help. Xixi was not buying it, and not even the doll he brought was tempting her to take her medicine.

Xixi was pushing Ye Yuwei away as she continued to protest. She lifted her little leg and kicked Ye Yuwei’s arm, causing the medicine to spill on the back of Ye Yuwei’s hand.

Ye Xicheng looked at his sister challenging their mother’s patience and swallowed nervously.

“Ye Xixi, are you going to take your medicine or not?” Ye Yuwei took a step back, holding the medicine away from Xixi to avoid her spilling anymore medicine again. Her expression was menacing.

“No... no...” Xixi’s face had turned red and was covered in sweat.

“Put the bowl down, I will feed her.” Gu Juexi noticed that Ye Yuwei was getting upset and offered to feed Xixi the medicine.

Ye Xicheng jumped when Ye Yuwei slammed the bowl on the table, then said softly to his sister, “You can only go out and play after you take the medicine, Xixi. Mommy is getting angry.”

Xixi was sobbing in Gu Juexi’s arms. She looked at her mother breathing heavily in anger and did not dare cry any louder.

Ye Xicheng got up to take Xixi’s medicine. “I will take some before you drink it so you will be drinking less,” Ye Xicheng declared and scooped a spoonful of medicine.

Xixi had stopped crying but continued to purse her lips, her little arms wrapped around Gu Juexi’s neck.

Yuan Mo was worried too. He put down the doll and quickly left the house when he remembered something.

Ye Yuwei sat there worried sick, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn’t just open Xixi’s mouth and pour the medicine in.

Ye Xicheng took a spoonful of medicine and scrunched his face up after he took a sip. He endured it then brought the spoon to Xixi’s mouth.

Xixi’s brows were knitted as she whimpered and wished that the spoon could just vanish into thin air.

“Look, Xixi. What’s this?” Yuan Mo asked as he returned with a cage in his hand.

Xixi’s eyes sparkled when she saw the cage and she said excitedly, “A rabbit!”

Yuan Mo put the cage on the ground. Xixi struggled to get down from Gu Juexi’s lap and squatted down in front of the cage to look at the rabbit.

Gu Juexi reached out to take the spoon in his son’s hand and squatted down beside his daughter with the bowl of medicine in his hand when he noticed that Xixi has dropped her guard. He then began to feed Xixi her medicine.

“My grandpa caught it when he went hiking yesterday, do you like it?” Yuan Mo’s grandpa actually planned to cook the rabbit but Yuan Mo wouldn’t admit that he stole it.

Xixi frowned when she was fed a spoonful of medicine. Gu Juexi lifted her chin with one hand to help her swallow.

Xixi shuddered when she tasted the bitterness of the medicine, then told her father, “I want the rabbit, Daddy.”
