Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Not Getting Enough Sleep Will Stunt Growth
Late into the night, Xu Xueyan was brought home by her friends.
She was already unconscious, burning with a high fever, and kept mumbling about being sick or something.
Mo Wanting was at her wit’s end, dressed in luxurious silk pajamas, organizing everything, "Put her on the sofa in the living room first. Lei Yue, why are you still standing there? Go get a doctor!"
The servants were in a flurry. She couldn’t help but scold, "Get some water for Miss! You’re all like fools..."
The friends were at a loss, unsure how to explain the situation.
Mo Wanting sat down, touching her daughter’s forehead, which was alarmingly hot.
Looking up, she glared at her daughter’s friends with annoyance, "Didn’t you say you were going out for drinks? How did she end up with a fever? Did you..."
"Auntie, we didn’t do anything." The friends, familiar with Mo Wanting’s temper, quickly waved their hands to clear themselves. "It was just a simple drinking party, Xueyan got drunk, went to the bathroom on her own, came out hugging someone and crying, then fainted. We hurried to bring her back, and she developed a high fever on the way."
Just then, Xu Leiyue brought in a private doctor.
The doctor gave her a thorough examination, checking her heartbeat and blood pressure, lifting her eyelids. "Mrs. Xu, the young lady doesn’t seem to have any major problems, but we need to conduct detailed checks, let’s draw some blood first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xueyan abruptly lifted her head and grabbed Mo Wanting’s arm, startling her.
"Mom... go to the Yun Family, ask... Yun Qiuce."
Mo Wanting was dumbfounded, "What nonsense are you talking about..."
"Mom!" Xu Xueyan used all her strength to grip Mo Wanting’s arm, her eyes were red, almost popping out, "The lives of the whole family... are in his hands."
Facing her daughter’s wide eyes filled with fear, Mo Wanting’s heart raced, ignoring the pain in her arm, she immediately ordered, "Go to the Yun Family, ask for Yun Qiuce."
Xu Xueyan shook her head, struggling to squeeze out a few words through clenched teeth, correcting, "Not... Yun Qiuce, it’s his... little niece."
Late into the night, Xu Leiyue was contacting friends one by one, asking for Yun Qiuce’s phone number.
Fortunately, scions of noble families had some connections with each other, and they quickly found out.
After a psychological struggle, Xu Leiyue prepared himself to be humble and had thought out an apology.
However, as soon as the call went through, Yun Qiuce answered grumpily, not waiting for the other side to speak, he started scolding: "Are you crazy, calling in the middle of the night, can’t it wait until morning? In such a hurry to reincarnate. Damn, even the King of Hell needs some rest after a day of work, don’t you know the rules..."
Xu Leiyue held his temper, waited until Yun Qiuce had finished venting, then humbly said, "Young Master Yun, it’s me."
"I don’t care who you are..."
"I’m Xu Leiyue, I beg you, Young Master Yun, please save my sister!"
"Huh?" Yun Qiuce scratched his messy hair, becoming a bit more awake.
Xu Leiyue briefly explained the situation.
Yun Qiuce’s tone became a bit more serious, "I’m not one to hold grudges, I can help. But not now, Qi is still sleeping."
Xu Leiyue wanted to say more.
Yun Qiuce immediately said earnestly and sternly, "Do you know how important sleep is for children? Without enough sleep, they won’t grow tall."
For his little niece’s height, he couldn’t agree to it.
On the other end, Xu Leiyue was so desperate he almost burst into tears, nearly ready to kneel.
No matter what was said, Yun Qiuce was resolute in refusing.
It wasn’t until the first light of dawn appeared that Yun Qiuce reluctantly agreed to bring Yun Qi over.
Early in the morning, the Old Master had not yet awoken.
Yun Qiuce snuck out like a thief, carrying Little Dumpling in his arms, who clung tightly to his neck to avoid falling. Her sleepy little voice was soft and not very clear, but it touched the heart deeply, making it melt.
"Did they call you?"
"Hmm? Qi, you knew?"
"If it weren’t for me, there’d be no life in the middle of the night. Ah-choo—uh, now there’s only a sliver of breath left."
Yun Qiuce sighed, "Qi, your choice of words is so... elusive."
Yun Qi struggled to fight off sleepiness, humming in her soft little voice, "Uncle isn’t any better than me!"
