Chapter 398: Flu
Their car had arrived at the Tengtang residence. As soon as the car stopped, Tengtang Xi hurriedly opened the door as though she did not want to hear Tengtang Li saying anything else anymore. She walked directly through the brown gate with flowers carved on it as soon as she got out of the car!
Tengtang Li could not help but feel very worried and distressed when he looked at his granddaughter who was walking away.
***
The next day.
Zuo Weiyi was really down with the flu and was a little groggy.
She was resting in her bedroom on the third floor, and everyone could hear her sneezing from time to time.
“Ah-chooo!”
Zuo Yi felt very distressed when he saw his granddaughter who was wrapping her quilt tightly around herself on the bed.
The doctor had already seen her and prescribed her some medication. However, it felt as though her situation has not improved at all even after taking the medication.
“What is the matter with this doctor? She has already taken her medicine so long ago, but it seems as though there is no effect at all! It seems as though his medical skills have already deteriorated with his age!”
Uncle Yu was a little speechless when he saw Zuo Yi’s worried look and heard his tone.
Yes, Zuo Weiyi had indeed taken the medication a while ago. However, how could there possibly be such a miraculous cold medicine in this world?
The medication would not take effect in just one day. The young lady’s cold would definitely get better tomorrow.
“Mr. President, medication for the flu always works like this. Doesn’t it take you a few days to get well after you catch a cold too?”
Zuo Yi raised his head slightly when he heard Uncle Yu’s words. He had a startled expression on his face as he asked, “Is that so?”
“Yes!” Uncle Yu nodded.
Whenever Zuo Yi was worried about the young lady, it felt as though he would become very absent-minded.
“No! I have to call and ask for Dr. Cheng to come over again. I want to ask him what kind of medication he prescribed to Weiyi, and why it has no effects on her at all!”
Zuo Yi was about to get up after he spoke.
“Grandpa!”
At this moment, Zuo Weiyi, who was lying on the bed, hurriedly called out to him.
Zuo Yi turned around as soon as he heard her voice. He felt extremely distressed when he saw her haggard face.
“Grandpa, you are making a big fuss. I can already feel that my nose is not congested anymore after taking the medicine. I will feel better tomorrow.”
“Really?” Zuo Yi asked skeptically as he frowned.
Zuo Weiyi nodded slightly. Her voice was a little hoa.r.s.e as she said, “Yes, Grandpa. How can the effects of cold medicine be so fast? How can I recover immediately after eating the medicine?”
The warmth that her grandfather brought her had already made her feel very happy because she could experience what it felt like to have a family member caring and showing concern for her again. She felt the warmth in her heart!
Her words finally convinced Zuo Yi and stopped him from going downstairs to call Dr. Cheng.
The housekeeper’s voice suddenly sounded at the door.
“Mr. President, Mr. s.h.i.+ is here.”
s.h.i.+ Yuting’s figure appeared at the door.
As soon as he arrived, he immediately looked at the person who was sitting on the bed with a quilt wrapped tightly around her. He had not seen her for only two days, but she had already ended up like this.
s.h.i.+ Yuting walked over to Zuo Weiyi as he completely ignored Zuo Yi, who was sitting at the side. In his eyes, all that he could see and all that he cared about was Zuo Weiyi. No one else mattered to him at all!
“What happened to you?” s.h.i.+ Yuting sat at the edge of the bed as he raised his hand to stroke her slightly reddish cheek. She seemed like she was down with a fever.
When he used his warm hand to touch her forehead, he realized that she was really down with a fever.
Zuo Weiyi felt a little embarra.s.sed because of his affectionate behavior and could not help but glance at her grandfather who was sitting at the side. After that, she took s.h.i.+ Yuting’s hand before she said, “I am fine…”
Zuo Yi, who was sitting nearby, suddenly started clearing his throat.
He was obviously doing it because he was dissatisfied with s.h.i.+ Yuting.
If they were comparing statuses, Zuo Yi was the president of the country. If they were looking at personal relations.h.i.+ps, Zuo Yi was also his wife’s grandfather. s.h.i.+ Yuting did not even greet him at all upon entering the room! He really had no manners!
