“Auntie Qiao, go grab some medicine.”
When faced with the little fella’s bright and dazzling gaze, Yin Yuerong didn’t know why she relented and asked to Auntie Qiao retrieve some medicine in the end.
Inside the bedroom, Yin Yuerong took some fever-reducing medicine and lay down on her bed.
Tangtang stayed by her side and was only relieved after watching Yin Yuerong take her medicine.
“Auntie Qiao, bring over the documents from my desk,” Yin Yuerong ordered.
Auntie Qiao was about to act on her request when Tangtang turned to Yin Yuerong at once. “Grandma, you need to rest! No matter how important the work is, it’s not as important as your health!”
Then the little fella looked at Auntie Qiao. “Auntie Qiao, turn up the thermostat and tell the kitchen to prepare some plain porridge. From now on, politely refuse all visitors and request sick leave from the Arbitration Council on Grandma’s behalf…”
1The little fella efficiently made these orders in a few words.
Auntie Qiao stood dazed in her spot. “…”
From the side, Ah-Zhong was disdainful. Was this little brat trying to revolt? Where did he think he was? He actually dared to boss people around here. Madam would definitely erupt in fury this time, right, since Madam hated people who overstepped and broke rules the most!
Yin Yuerong stared at the little fella in front of her for a long while before casting her eyes down and chuckling lightly. Perhaps it was due to her weak health that her face appeared softer than normal. “You’re quite bossy, little fella.”
Based on Yin Yuerong’s attitude, she didn’t look displeased…
“Didn’t you hear? Do as he said.” Yin Yuerong turned to Auntie Qiao.
Auntie Qiao breathed a sigh of relief and was joyous as she quickly went to make the arrangements. Meanwhile, Ah-Zhong froze, flabbergasted…
…
After Auntie Qiao and Ah-Zhong left, only Yin Yuerong and Tangtang remained in the room.
Yin Yuerong leaned against the headboard. “How did you know I had a fever?”
The little fella blinked. “Because Grandma looked really unwell!”
“Is that so…”
Yin Yuerong was already used to putting up a pretense and not allowing herself a reveal any flaws under any circumstance, so even Auntie Qiao, who had always been by her side, didn’t see it. Yet, this child managed to detect she was unwell with a single glance.
It was probably because children’s eyes were more innocent, so they could detect some things other people couldn’t see, right?
“Grandma, is it hard to sleep? How about I tell you a story?” Tangtang suggested.
“As you wish.” Yin Yuerong closed her eyes.
“Then I will start!” Tangtang cleared his throat before using his childish voice to start his storytelling.
“A long, long time ago, there lived a little girl in the forest. The little girl’s grandmother weaved a red hood for the little girl that she particularly liked and wore every day, so everyone called her Little Red Riding Hood…
3“One day, Little Red Riding Hood went to the other end of the forest to bring a meal to her grandmother, but she unexpectedly ran into a big gray wolf on her way.
“That big gray wolf was very hungry and pounced on Little Red Riding Hood as soon as he saw her. However, after the big gray wolf pounced, he didn’t eat Little Red Riding Hood.
“Grandma, do you know why the big gray wolf didn’t eat Little Red Riding Hood?”
“Why?” Before Yin Yuerong realized it, she’d already asked.
Tangtang replied with a grin, “Because the big gray wolf found Little Red Riding Hood too cute, so he wanted to be friends with Little Red Riding Hood and didn’t want to eat her anymore!”
1A smile rippled in Yin Yuerong’s eyes. “Is that how the story goes?”
“Yes, it is! Do you want to hear more, Grandma? I have a lot of stories! I can keep telling them!”
