Chapter 302
“I’ll go in and check first.”
Chang Danran changed her slippers and knocked at the door of the child’s room.
“Xiaoman, open the door, mom’s home.”
Xiaoman felt so uncomfortable, rolling around on the child’s bed, yearning to roll into her mother’s arms. But Xiaoman wouldn’t open the door.
The little one felt so wronged because today at the kindergarten, a kid called him a monster and said he came to school every day with a bag of blood.
The little one felt so aggrieved. He wasn’t a monster. He didn’t want to take the medicine anymore.
Chang Danran comforted Xiaoman from outside his room for a long time, but Xiaoman would rather curl up under the blanket shivering than open the door, eventually opting to cover his ears.
Chang Danran, the mother, was heartbroken and sat crying in the living room.
“My poor grandson, what sins has he committed? He used to take his medicine obediently, why won’t he now?”
Although that medicine…
Staring at the blood on the table that she bought from the blood bank, she wiped away her bitter tears – such a sin!
“You both are doctors, Jingyu is also a doctor. How can two doctors fail to cure their son’s illness? How are you parenting Xiaoman?”
Chang Danran blamed herself, but to no avail.
Xiaoman had been plagued by misfortunes since he was little. Not long after he was born, he nearly died. Even though he was saved, he mysteriously developed this peculiar illness where he craves blood. With their medical expertise and connections in the medical community, they still couldn’t find the cause or a cure.
Fortunately, it’s just craving for blood. So they bought blood for him to drink. It didn’t harm his health or intelligence.
In fact, Xiaoman was very intelligent. The things he liked were beyond her comprehension, and sometimes he even outsmarted her.
Jingyu said that having Xiaoman was her blessing. Chang Danran also felt that Xiaoman was her life, a little blessing gifted to her by heaven.

After dinner, Ye Xingguang stayed in the hospital room until after eight, before being sent to a hotel to sleep by her parents.noveldrama
She did feel unwell, so she did not push herself.
There were bodyguards left by Ye Junqing at the place, and her eldest brother, who insisted on staying in the hospital to take care of her. She picked up her handbag.
“Dad, Mom, I’m leaving.”
“Go ahead.”
Song Chuanqi waved at her dismissively from the bed.
Xia Ye Zhao followed her out, under the pouring rain outside. Ye Xingguang had returned her rain boots to the nurse’s station. He was worried about letting her go to the hotel in this state.
Without her feet touching the ground, he carried her from the entrance of the hospital building straight to the hospital car park, into the car.
When the car arrived at the hotel entrance, Xia Ye Zhao got out first, went around to open the door, and carried her out.
His pampering made Ye Xingguang’s nose sour. She really wanted to call him big brother, was this his way to make her give in her heart?
“What is it?”
Xia Ye Zhao noticed that she was grumbling about something.
“Xia, big brother, if you keep taking care of me like this, I won’t be able to help but fall in love with you. I’m not Xia Qiongqiong, and we are of opposite genders. Your personality is so charming, what if I fall in love with you?” Ye Xingguang playfully said.
Xia Ye Zhao, however, couldn’t find it within him to laugh. He carried her directly into the hotel lobby, made sure there was no rain coming in, then put her down. His eyes still filled with guilt.
Compared to the harm that this family had done to her, what he’s doing now was next to nothing. Saying so would only make him more ashamed.
