The sight of that happening shocked everyone to their core.
Ye Youyou immediately supported Su Qianci from behind while Ye Qianqian crouched down from above the spring to steady her.
Yu Lili was also stunned. She called out, âQianci, are you alright?â
Li Jianyue hadnât noticed what Su Qianci did. But, seeing all the adults react that way, she got a shock and cried out, âMommy!â
Su Qianci shut her eyes tightly for a moment as her whole body felt powerless. Only after a long while did she manage to regain her balance. She shook her head and replied, âIâm fine. Itâs probably because I spent too long in the hot spring. Letâs go.â
âAre you sure youâre OK? Come up and rest for a while.â Yu Youyouâs brows creased together in concern as she held Su Qianci steady. âOlder Sister, please hand me a towel.â
âOh OK.â Ye Qianqianâs actions were quick. She draped the towel around Su Qianciâs body before Ye Youyou led the latter onto the shore.
Su Qianci was feeling a lot better. She gently pushed Ye Youyou away as she said, âIâm feeling much better. Thank you.â
âYou arenât anemic, are you? People with anemia get dizzy periodically,â Yu Lili said with a frown. âThat happened to me before when I was suffering from anemia. Let me get you some sugar water.â
âThat wonât be necessary, Lili. Youâre overreacting. Iâm be fine after resting for a while.â Su Qianci stood up and stretched her back. âDonât say a word about this to my husband. I donât want him to worry.â
Yu Lili looked at her but didnât say anything as she continued carrying Li Jianyue.
âAlright, letâs go out now. Ersu, are you hungry?â Su Qianci reached her arms out toward Ersu. âLet Mommy carry you. Auntieâs hands must be tired.â
Ersu hugged the towel around her body tightly and pouted her lips, but she didnât lean toward her mother. She said, âMommy, youâre not feeling well. You donât have to carry me. Iâll walk on my own. Auntie, please put me down.â
Yu Lili liked the girl so very much. She put her down and helped her secure the towel around her body. âAre you worried about your mommy?â
Li Jianyue pursed her lips before replying, âItâs not good if Mommy isnât feeling well.â With that, she pulled Su Qianci along by her hand and remarked, âMommy, letâs go look for Daddy.â
I have to tell Daddy what just happened. Daddy will take good care of Mommy. Me and Older Brothers are still too young, there is no way we can take care of Mommy well. As for the aunties, they are all outsiders. Family takes care of each other best.
Although Li Jianyue was still very young, she understood a whole lot. Her eyes were like huge round grapes as she looked around. She grasped the palm of her motherâs hand as she schemed in her mind how she was going to spill the beans to her father.
Su Qianci looked down at her own daughter and could tell with one look exactly what she was thinking. She warned, âIâm fine. Iâm not feeling any discomfort anywhere at all. Youâre not to say a word to Daddy, do you hear me?â
âOK...â The child pouted her lips and looked down in defeat.
Yu Lili walked up and led the child away. She tossed her a set of clothing and watch as Li Jianyue clumsily put them on.
Although her actions were jerky, she was able to put her clothes on correctly. She even knew to look in the mirror to ensure she was dressed prettily.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Upon stepping out, Li Jianyue noticed her father standing tall. She pressed her lips into a thin line and ran out with her stumpy legs, calling out in a tone of grievance, âDaddy!â
Li Sichengâs eyes softened when he saw his daughter. He crouched down to pick her up.
âDaddy, I have something to tell you...â Li Jianyue was about to let the cat out of the bag when she noticed Su Qianciâs warning glare. She quickly kept her mouth shut.
I canât tell Daddy...
Li Jianyueâs eyes saddening shone. Looking to Li Jianqian beside her, she said, âOlder Brother! I have something to tell you. Mommy almost fell when she was in the water just now!â
She had thought to herself, Since I canât tell Daddy about it, Iâll tell Older Brother instead...
