4514 The Other Side 483

Under Jing Qi’s coercion and persuasion, Jing Yang obediently swallowed the pill. However, the moment Jing Qi turned around, the little lad ran to the bathroom and spat out the pill hidden under his tongue. He wasn’t going to take any medicine!

If he did, it would only hasten his recovery and he would have no choice but to be discharged from the hospital. If that happened he’d not be able to see little Yueyao again. He wanted to stay in the hospital and play with little Yueyao. It didn’t matter if he got a few more injections.

At night, when the nurse came to check on him, she took his temperature again.

“Aiya, little Yangyang’s fever has almost subsided. You can be discharged tomorrow.”

Jing Yang stood there with his eyes wide open, as though he was. .h.i.t by a bolt of lightning from out of the blue.

The nurse held the thermometer and looked at his stunned expression. She squatted down and hugged the little guy reluctantly. “Aiyaya, Auntie really can’t bear for Yangyang to leave! However, Yangyang can’t be sick forever. After being discharged, you must be careful not to catch a cold, eh?”

When Jing Qi heard that he could be discharged, she asked excitedly, “The fever won’t come back?”

“No, as long as he doesn’t catch a cold, he’ll be fine. Remember, you have to use warm water when bathing him. Even for was.h.i.+ng his face, don’t use any cold water.”

This gave Jing Yang an idea.

Night time.

The skies gradually darkened.

Jing Qi held the boy and lay on the bed, sleeping soundly.

In the middle of the night, Jing Yang slowly opened his eyes. Noticing that his mother was sleeping soundly, he quietly sat up, got off the bed, and carefully walked to the bathroom. Then, he quickly took off his clothes. He stood under the shower and turned on the cold water.

Whoosh—

Cold water poured down from the shower head.

Jing Yang hugged himself tightly, s.h.i.+vering in the cold water. The nurse’s words were all he could think of.

“Don’t catch a cold. Stay out of the cold wind.”

“Even for was.h.i.+ng his face, don’t use any cold water.”

…

Did the nurse mean that as long as he caught a cold, he’d fall sick again?

At the thought of this, despite the icy water, the boy gritted his teeth and endured it until he was s.h.i.+vering from the cold. Only then did he walk out of the shower and dry himself with a towel. Then, with his hair wet, he walked to the small garden behind the hospital building and jogged in the cold wind.

After sweating from the jog, he went under the shower again and continued to drench himself in cold water.

The next day…

As soon as Jing Qi woke up, she felt the slightly hurried breathing beside her. She looked up and saw Jing Yang nestled in her arms with a flushed face. Even his breath was burning hot.

Horrified, she quickly felt his face with her hand. It was so hot that she jumped!

So hot?!

Didn’t the nurse say that he had almost recovered from the high fever? Why was it back?

It was common for children of this age to get a relapse. However, after the fever injection at the hospital, the nurses and doctors said that it would not come back. This relapse was so sudden that Jing Qi was not mentally prepared at all.

She had thought that he had almost recovered.

Jing Qi was so frightened that she hurriedly pressed the bedside bell. The nurse rushed over and saw Jing Yang lying on the bed with a flushed face. He was clearly awake, but he was delirious. His eyes were slightly open, as if he was looking at the nurse expectantly. He even reached out his hand to get the thermometer from the nurse.
