Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Another Fastball

Shengshi Entertainment Group.

Inside the headquarters building, as they watched Wang Shasha return to the secretarial office, a group of young women immediately crowded around her.

"Sister Wang, what’s going on?"

"Why did our drop-dead handsome Chairman Xiao suddenly call for a doctor?"

"Sister Wang, did you see Chairman Xiao?"

Wang Shasha glared at these youthful and lively girls.

"Why are you all crowding around? Hurry up and get back to work!"

Although she said that, the girls just giggled and stayed where they were, showing no intention of leaving.

Over time, Wang Shasha had taken good care of them, so they weren’t afraid of her anymore.

Helpless, Wang Shasha said, "Our Chairman Xiao truly seems determined to make all the women in the world envy our chairman’s wife to death."

As soon as she said this, the girls’ eyes lit up with excitement, each one getting even more animated.

"Sister Wang? Is it Chairman Xiao’s wife?"

"What’s up with the chairman’s wife? Don’t tell me... she’s expecting another baby?"

"What do you mean another baby!"

Wang Shasha gently knocked one of the overly outspoken girls on the head, then said with a sigh, "Because of a little cold and fever, Mr. Xie and I went all the way to bring Shanghai’s best private doctor to their home. Tsk tsk, this kind of treatment—it’s something I wouldn’t even dare dream about!"

After finishing, Wang Shasha returned to her desk and sat down.

The girls exchanged bewildered looks.

A cold and fever?

That’s it?

"I admit, I’m completely jealous. What about you?"

"I think I might die of envy, okay?"

"This princess-like treatment... Tsk, tsk, no hope for me in this lifetime."

"Forget it, forget it, time to work..."

With that, the girls scattered.

However, after returning to their desks, it was clear from their expressions that they weren’t as calm as they let on.

Recalling what Wang Shasha had just said, some of the girls couldn’t help but discuss the matter in their private group chats.

Before long, many people had heard about Xiao Fei summoning a private doctor for Tang Yuxin.

Even some of the signed celebrities in the company felt mixed emotions when they saw the news.

The commotion of the outside world didn’t seem to affect Xiao Fei.

At home, he focused entirely on caring for Tang Yuxin and their baby.

If the baby cried, he would go to comfort them, check for a wet diaper, and then return to the bedroom to stay with Tang Yuxin if nothing else was wrong.

As nightfall approached, Tang Yuxin finally woke up in a daze.

"Hu... honey..."

As soon as she spoke, she realized her voice was still raspy.

"You’re awake?"

Noticing that Tang Yuxin had woken up, Xiao Fei immediately asked with concern, "Feeling any better? I just asked the doctor to come to our house and check on you. She said you have a cold and fever, 39 degrees. You’ve already gotten an injection and been prescribed some medicine."

Tang Yuxin blinked, then suddenly sneezed heavily.

She froze.

Staring blankly at Xiao Fei’s shirt, now covered with the aftermath of her sneeze, her already flushed face turned even redder from embarrassment.

"I’ll go clean it up," Xiao Fei said with a chuckle, rising to wipe himself off before bringing her a cup of warm water.

"Here, you must be thirsty. Drink some water."

"Mmm~"

Nestled in Xiao Fei’s arms, Tang Yuxin obediently sipped a few mouthfuls.

"It’s almost dinnertime. What do you feel like eating?"

"I just want you to stay with me," Tang Yuxin said, pouting.

She reached out her small hand to grab Xiao Fei’s arm, looking at him pitifully.

"But don’t get too close. I don’t want to pass my cold to you. How about... How about you put on a mask and sit next to me?"

"No need for a mask. I’m perfectly healthy."

"No way..."

Tang Yuxin shook her head stubbornly. "I want you to stay with me, but I don’t want you to get sick. Go put on a mask, okay?"

Unable to resist her sweet demands, Xiao Fei had no choice but to find a disposable mask from their supply and put it on.

Once he sat back down by the bed, Tang Yuxin leaned closer and rested her head on his shoulder.

Xiao Fei pulled the blanket up snugly around her.

"Are you hungry?"

"No."

"You’re definitely hungry."

Tang Yuxin stared at Xiao Fei, her eyes unwavering.

"You’ve been looking after me all day and the baby too. You absolutely didn’t eat lunch, and I remember you skipped breakfast as well."

"Fine, I’ll go make some food."

"Nooo~~"

Tang Yuxin started whining again.

"I don’t want you to leave."

"I’m just going to the kitchen to cook."

"But please don’t~..."

Tang Yuxin rubbed her forehead against Xiao Fei’s leg.

"How about you order delivery instead? Just stay here and keep me company, okay?"

Looking at her with her pleading, sparkling eyes, Xiao Fei finally relented.

"Alright."

"You’re the best husband ever! Hmm... I really want to give you a kiss as a reward, but I’m sick."

"Once you’re better, you can give me as many kisses as you want."

"You have to keep your word~~"

Xiao Fei couldn’t help bursting into laughter.

The sick Tang Yuxin was not only excessively clingy but also as childlike as could be.

Her tone and expressions were completely different from her usual self.

"What are you laughing at!"

"I’m not laughing."

"You’re making fun of me!"

"I’m really not... Pfft..."

"You’ve been laughing nonstop; you haven’t stopped at all!"

Tang Yuxin lightly bumped her head against Xiao Fei’s leg, pouted, and turned over, facing away from Xiao Fei.

But less than ten seconds later, she sneakily turned her head back again.

When she saw Xiao Fei staring right at her, she quickly whipped her head back around.

A few seconds later, she turned again.

This time, Xiao Fei intentionally didn’t look her way. Tang Yuxin scrunched her face into a pout and began softly whining on the bed.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of a camera shutter—"click."

Her eyes widened as she saw Xiao Fei holding his phone, snapping a picture of her.

"You’re secretly taking pictures of me!"

"No, I’m taking pictures openly," he responded.

"I don’t care! You’re secretly taking pictures—hmph!"

After putting his phone away, Xiao Fei reached out to touch Tang Yuxin’s forehead and found it wasn’t as hot anymore.

But as soon as he raised his hand, Tang Yuxin grabbed it and playfully bit down.

"Let go."

"Mmmmmm...!"

"Let go and cover yourself with the blanket properly."

"Mmmmmm!"

Xiao Fei helplessly let her keep nibbling on his hand while adjusting her blanket.

Tang Yuxin finally released him, her eyes brimming with an indescribable happiness.

She was only acting like this because feeling weak from her illness made her more dependent on Xiao Fei—she wasn’t truly regressing into childlike behavior.

Xiao Fei’s tenderness and pampering were things she silently cherished deep inside her heart.

"Honey~"

"What now?"

"Don’t order delivery after all. Go cook something proper and have a decent meal. Delivery isn’t healthy."

"Don’t need me to stay with you anymore?"

"Knowing that your heart is here with me is enough."

Bam!

Just like that, her straightforwardness struck him completely off guard.
