Chapter 806: Becoming An Idiot (1)

Translator: Lordbluefire

When Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen returned to the capital, they had already spent half a year recuperating outside.

Chu Cichen’s body was almost recovered by now.

Upon arriving in the capital, Chu Tianye’s high fever still hadn’t subsided. The fever-reducing medicine didn’t seem to have any effect. In the end, it was Shen Ruojing who took out silver needles and gave the child a few shots, combined with some Chinese medicine and massage therapy. They struggled for more than an hour before the fever finally went down.

After the fever subsided, Shen Ruojing remained silent, sitting by the bedside and looking at Chu Tianye.

The little guy’s face was still rosy, but his lips were purple, and his breath was weak. After being sick, he had lost some weight, and his face had obviously become smaller.

Chu Yu and Chu Xiaomeng, the other two children, sat obediently on the side, looking worriedly at Chu Tianye.

Chu Xiaomeng said, “Mommy, just now, Brother’s temperature reached 4.1 degrees. I read in a book that many children with this temperature could end up with brain damage. Will Brother become a fool?”

Shen Ruojing,

She was also worried about this issue.

Chu Tianye’s illness was strange; the high fever wouldn’t go away. The Western doctors at home had tried everything, and even she had come up with many methods before they finally took effect. However, Shen Ruojing couldn’t guarantee that the child’s brain wouldn’t be affected.

She tightened her lips.

At this moment, Chu Cichen held her hand and said, “Jingjing, don’t worry, everything will be fine.”

His words were like a declaration of faith, allowing Shen Ruojing’s anxious heart to calm down a bit.

She looked at the child on the sickbed again and sighed silently, “1 neglected them during this time.”

Chu Cichen didn’t refute her statement.

As the father of the children, he missed them too. If it weren’t for the blissful life he shared with Shen Ruojing and the complexities of raising three children, he would have probably gone home much earlier.

While they were talking, Ye Lu came in.

She held a blood test report in her hand and said solemnly, “Indeed, Little Ye’s fever is peculiar this time. It’s caused by a potent virus that, once inside the body, can damage the organs. This disease has already spread abroad, and the failure of the fever to subside is a typical sign!”

Upon hearing this, both Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen’s expressions turned serious.

They all looked at Chu Tianye together.

Chu Tianye was young, and the illness had developed rapidly.

The Chu family had taken excellent care of their three children. When they first discovered the illness, they thought it was just a common cold and took him to the hospital. However, his temperature kept rising, and no special medicine worked. Matriarch Chu didn’t want to take any risks, as high fever could be life-threatening, so she called Shen Ruojing.

During the time Shen Ruojing flew back, she followed the methods mentioned before, and kept Chu Tianye soaking in water at 36 degrees to maintain his body temperature. That was how they managed to keep him stable until Shen Ruojing returned home.

Now that the fever was gone, his life was no longer in danger, but they were unsure of what would happen next.

They were afraid the virus might have attacked his brain cells or damaged his nerves during the high fever.

However, it was not the time to discuss these matters. Knowing that this was an infectious disease, Shen Ruojing immediately ordered, “Everyone needs to isolate themselves, and no one is allowed to enter this room.”

Everyone who had contact with Chu Tianye was arranged to live separately for observation.

Chu Xiaomeng and Chu Yu didn’t want to leave. They wanted to stay and take care of Chu Tianye, but Shen Ruojing firmly refused.

Chu Cichen also wanted to stay, but Shen Ruojing pushed him to the door, saying, “You take care of these two children. We are not just a couple; we are also their parents.”

Chu Cichen hesitated for a moment but eventually agreed.

They acted quickly. As soon as Shen Ruojing learned that Chu Tianye’s fever wasn’t going away, she had Ye Lu conduct a blood test to confirm the infectious disease. Then, she immediately investigated Chu Tianye’s recent contacts and found a person who had just returned from abroad.

When they found that person, he had already had an unrelenting fever for three days, and when Shen Ruojing and the others found him, he had just passed away.

With the source of infection identified and proper preventive measures in place, the infectious disease was promptly contained.

The speed at which they acted left the personnel at the infectious disease center astonished, and they later presented Shen Ruojing with a commemorative plaque for her swift actions.

Of course, these were events that happened later.

At this moment, Shen Ruojing was still worried about Chu Tianye’s condition.

She had been by his side for three full days, during which Chu Tianye had not regained consciousness. This situation weighed heavily on Shen Ruojing’s heart.

Chu Cichen visited every day, even if he couldn’t enter the room. He would convey his concern and eagerness through the glass.

The two of them spoke over the phone, “How is Tianye’s condition?”

Shen Ruojing sighed and said, “The tests show that his brain waves are normal, but the human brain is so complex that no one can be sure until he wakes up.”

The damage caused by the virus to the body could be treated, but the nerve damage caused by the high fever couldn’t be cured.

After saying this, Shen Ruojing tightened her jaw, suddenly clenched her fists, and said, “If, if Little Ye really becomes an idiot…”

Her voice choked up, and she couldn’t bear to think about it. The thought of her clever, money-loving son becoming a fool was heart-wrenching.

“It won’t happen,” Chu Cichen continued to comfort her, saying weakly, “No matter what, he is our son!”
