Chapter 572: Chapter 572: The Child Has a High Fever

"Mianmian, you must absolutely not start dating early! Even if you meet someone you like, wait until you’re in college to date. You’re still young at the moment, no need to rush into relationships," Aunt Liu’s attitude had completely changed, for fear Shen Mianmian might fall into an early romance. Lu Siyuan was also a student and both of them had good grades—getting expelled would be a regret coming too late.

A bright future should not be delayed because of this.

When she heard the two of them say this, Shen Mianmian couldn’t help but be a little amused. In her eyes, Lu Siyuan was just a little brat, too young to even be her son, let alone her boyfriend. How could she possibly date him?

However, she also understood their worries. After all, in the eyes of others, she and Lu Siyuan were of similar age and got along well, which indeed made it easy to develop feelings.

"Auntie, Big Brother He, don’t worry! I won’t start dating early. Siyuan and I are just good friends, and we don’t even do anything intimate. Those who want to throw dirt on us won’t find it so easy."

"That’s good to hear. I know you’re sensible, and don’t be annoyed by my nagging. The older you get, the more you worry over nothing."

"Auntie, I know you’re looking out for me. I understand that."

Aunt Liu felt very happy upon hearing Shen Mianmian’s words, knowing her kindness toward Mianmian was not in vain. Mianmian was sensible and appreciated her good intentions.

Compared to Aunt Liu, He Nan seemed not quite satisfied with Shen Mianmian’s answer. She said she wouldn’t start dating early, not that she didn’t like Lu Siyuan. But seeing that she was really clueless in matters of love, he chose not to say more.

"You guys should get some rest early. The day after tomorrow, I’ll take you to school in the morning."

After saying this, he turned and walked out.

"Thank you, Big Brother He." Shen Mianmian walked him to the door. Although she didn’t want to burden Big Brother He, she also knew that if she went to school alone, there was a chance of being delayed by running into her parents.

As for Li Shiping’s situation, she didn’t bring it up because Aunt Liu was present.

What she didn’t know was that Li Shiping, after selling her gold bracelet, had just gotten home when Wan Dongcheng demanded the money from her, and he even reproached her for coming back too late.

"My cousin is getting married tomorrow, and you’re bringing the money back now? By the time I got home, it was almost dark."

"Has the child’s fever gone down?" Li Shiping felt uncomfortable after selling the family heirloom bracelet. She had no desire to talk any more.

"It should have subsided, he’s sleeping soundly." Wan Dongcheng, impatient, urged, "Hurry up and change into something more presentable; we’re getting ready to leave."

After having a child, Li Shiping no longer had her previous figure and had become increasingly unkempt. Wan Dongcheng was very dissatisfied with this. Li Shiping was his face, his source of pride to show off.

If she continued like this, how was she any different from a rural woman? He didn’t even want to take her anywhere anymore.

"I need to check if the child’s fever has gone down. If it hasn’t..."

"Why do you always make things so complicated?" Wan Dongcheng lost his patience: "Are you going or not? If you’re not, then I’m leaving."

"I need to check on the child first."

When Li Shiping returned to the room, she found her child’s face frighteningly red. She touched his forehead and felt his body burning up. She called to him a couple of times, but the child didn’t respond. How could he be just sleeping?

He was obviously delirious with fever. Li Shiping’s legs went weak, and she opened her mouth but could not make a sound.

"Are you done yet? If you dawdle anymore, it’ll be completely dark." Wan Dongcheng shouted impatiently; the family had been notified to prepare a large table feast for relatives to eat together that evening. This was the perfect opportunity for him to boast and show off. He was nearly beside himself with urgency.
