“So she’s running promotional activities every day?” asked Shu Yan in disbelief.

“Yes, I have talked to her many times but she wouldn’t listen. She said she is very busy every day. But she never stopped to think that she is working over 10 hours a day. The place is bustling, sure, but her daily sales is still around 600 ~ 700 yuan with probably lower profit than before. What was she doing that for?” Zhang Huaxiu was baffled.

Why? Shu Yan couldn’t answer that question. She only felt that it was a waste of a good shop

She saw Aunty preparing breakfast when she got home.

“Oh, you are finally back,” said Aunty as she dried her hands. She quickly took Tianbao from Shu Yan. “What bad timing that Tianbao got sick on my day off. Poor Tianbao. How are you feeling now?”

“He had some IV fluid and his fever was gone. He still has a cold. I’ll give his school a call in a little bit and take the day off for him. How come you are back so early?” It was Aunty’s daughter’s birthday and she had taken the day of particularly to spend time with her daughter. Shu Yan even gave her a big cake.

By the time Tianbao was finished with is IV, the sky was already bright. Shu Yan yawned a little and glancing over at Feng Zeyu, who still looked spirited, felt envious of him.

“Should we have breakfast out or should we go home for breakfast?” Shu Yan asked Feng Zeyu.

Feng Zeyu paused a little and was tempted. He finally said to her, “Let’s eat out. I’ll take you two home afterward.”

Feng Zeyu had to drive to Shu Yan took over Tianbao, who was awaken in the process. He had been feeling dizzy all night long and just now noticed Feng Zeyu.

“Uncle Feng.” Tianbao gave him a very naïve smile when he saw Feng Zeyu.

“Hello,” came Feng Zeyu’s slightly hoarse voice from the other end of the phone.

“It’s me. Tianbao is runny a high fever. I want to take him to the hospital but I won’t be able to get a ride at this hour.”

“Wait for me. I’ll be right over.” Feng Zeyu put on his pants, grabbed his jacket and was on his way out the door.

After hanging up on the call, Shu Yan gave Tianbao some fever-reducing drugs before she fetched some rubbing alcohol and rubbed them in his armpit and the inside of his elbow. Slowly, his temperature seemed to have gone down a little. She checked his temperature again, 39.4 degrees. He was slightly cooler than before. Shu Yan continued to rub alcohol on him.

When the doorbell rang, Shu Yan went and checked. She opened the door after she confirmed that it was Feng Zeyu standing outside.
