Lin Xiaowan was burning. Not only that, but her voice also became hoarse. Normally, a fever did not always come with a sore throat. However, her respiratory tract had been damaged once and was especially fragile. As such, it was easily affected.
Back then, Lin Xiaowan was still unconscious, and the doctor spoke to Huo Zheng about her condition. As such, she was unaware of her condition. She only thought she had eaten too many snacks.
Aunt Wu stewed pear soup with lily tremella, lotus seed, and rock sugar for her, which was especially soothing to the throat.
The weather was cold, and Lin Xiaowan was not very willing to leave the house to see a doctor. Moreover, she assumed she would be fine after a day.
Aunt Wu could not persuade her so she secretly told Huo Zheng about it when she saw Lin Xiaowan continuing to eat potato chips. There was nothing she could do about it. Lin Xiaowan only listened to Huo Zheng. Even then, as soon as Lin Xiaowan acted coquettishly with him, he would give in to her.
At night, Huo Zheng arrived a few hours earlier. As soon as he entered the house, Lin Xiaowan’s first reaction was to hide the junk food. She was having fried chicken and a hamburger for dinner.
Huo Zheng smiled.
At this time, Lin Xiaowan was live streaming. Ever since the camera heated up, she no longer put it on Little Chestnut. She was busy and did not buy a new camera. Occasionally, she would use her phone to live broadcast. The camera would be focused on the scratching posts so she did not need to do anything. It was just that the shooting range was limited, and Little Chestnut did not appear often in front of the camera.
Now that she had submitted her artwork, she had more free time so she had been looking at mini cameras online. She could not decide on which one to buy so she put it on hold.
In the living room, Lin Xiaowan looked at Huo Zheng, whose expression was a little unhappy, guiltily.
Little Chestnut leaped over suddenly toward the scratching post, and a robust figure appeared on the live stream. However, as it leaped up, its furry tail accidentally knocked over a porcelain decorative item.
A loud noise rang out immediately near Huo Zheng.
Little Chestnut jumped up, frightened by the sudden noise.
Lin Xiaowan was also startled.
Many exclamation marks could be seen in the comment section at this moment, especially from those who also had cats themselves.
“How many things has it broken until now?” Huo Zheng asked, massaging his temples.
Lin Xiaowan casually placed her phone on the coffee table with the camera facing up. The only thing that could be seen was the huge crystal chandelier and the high ceiling.
Lin Xiaowan felt extremely guilty for eating and drinking without care in Huo Zheng’s absence. The packaging of the burger and remains were still on the table, and she instinctively wanted to flatter Huo Zheng.
However, as soon as she rose to her feet, Huo Zheng said in a low voice, “Sit down.”
Her feet were bare, and the floor was cold. Although there was heating on the floor, Huo Zheng still could not help but frown when he saw this scene. He asked, “Where are your slippers?”
Lin Xiaowan tried to hide her feet as she said hoarsely, “In the bedroom…”
Before Huo Zheng went to the bedroom to get her slippers, he reminded her, “Wait. Don’t step on the shards of glass. I’ll settle the score with you later.” [Netizen #1: Is that Little Chestnut’s father?]
[Netizen #2: Yes. Little Chestnut’s father seems to be very busy with work. He usually doesn’t show up in the live broadcasts. He only appeared once before. However, his deep voice is very recognizable.]
[Netizen #3: His voice sounds very good!]
[Netizen #4: I’m going to die from laughing too much.]
[Netizen #5: Little Chestnut’s mother sounds like she’s panicking. By the way, the perspective of the camera is very unique…]
At this moment, Aunt Wu quickly came over and cleaned up the glass shards.
Lin Xiaowan curled up on the couch and ruffled the furball as she said with a sigh, “Your mother is going to be taught a lesson later… When your father comes down, I’ll tell him these are all for you. I’m sorry! I’ll tell him to give you a bigger play area in the future!”
Little Chestnut meowed a few times, and Lin Xiaowan considered it an acquiescence. She had forgotten that her phone was still broadcasting at this moment.
[Netizen #1: Little Chestnut’s mother is a little cute! Hahaha!
[Netizen #2: Poor Little Chestnut!]
[Netizen #3: Little Chestnut’s mother’s voice is so soft. She’ll definitely sound good when she cries. Hehe!]
[Netizen #4: Wake up! This is a cat live broadcast!]
[Netizen #5: Do you hear Little Chestnut meowing? It’s judging you!]
Little Chestnut continued to meow, acting coquettishly to Lin Xiaowan.
When Huo Zheng came down, he did not only bring Lin Xiaowan’s slippers, but he brought the trash bag in the bedroom down as well.
Lin Xiaowan held her breath and stopped petting Little Chestnut immediately when she saw this. She had eaten spicy sticks and some jelly yesterday night, and she had thrown their wrappings in the trash can.
Aunt Wu brought honey water and left to throw the trash while Huo Zheng sat down next to Lin Xiaowan.
“Drink some.”
Lin Xiaowan took the cup, looking extremely obedient at this moment.
Little Chestnut had never been very close to Huo Zheng. As soon as he sat down, it jumped off the couch arrogantly to play by itself. It was safe for it to play since Aunt Wu had already cleaned up the glass shards.
“You ate these things when I wasn’t around, huh? Did you think I would not know when the chef did not come?”
Lin Xiaowan lowered her head and protested weakly, “The chef came in the afternoon.”
Huo Zheng looked at the lunch menu and said, “Sweet and sour tenderloin, pork strips stir-fried with fish sauce, and chicken feet? The only vegetable you had was the spinach and egg dish. Even then, 1 heard you didn’t eat the spinach.”
“Spinach is bitter and not tasty…”
“When did you go to the supermarket to buy these snacks?”
When Huo Zheng left not long ago, the chef made some healthy snacks without preservatives. That was it. However, when he returned, he saw that there were a lot of spicy snacks, jelly, chips, and biscuits. It was no wonder that he was angry.
“After dinner yesterday,” Lin Xiaowan replied honestly.
Huo Zheng pulled her into his arms before he lowered her head and whispered into her ear, “Do you want to be taught a lesson?”
Lin Xiaowan’s ears turned red immediately. “No.”
Ever since Lin Xiaowan was hospitalized at the end of last year, Huo Zheng had been quite strict with her diet. It had been almost a year, but he did not relax at all. She could only eat the food outside a few times, and she was about to die from her cravings.
“I want to eat octopus balls,” Lin Xiaowan said when she recalled the octopus balls that Gu Yuwu bought her previously.
“You still dare to make a request? I’ll bring you to the doctor tomorrow.”
Huo Zheng thought about the time she was hospitalized. At that time, the doctor told him that Lin Xiaowan had to be extra careful when she had a fever or caught a cold since it might affect her respiratory system. As such, he could not help but worry.
“It’s just a mild fever. There’s no need to see a doctor,” Lin Xiaowan said. She did not think it was serious.
“Be good and listen to me,” Huo Zheng said, coaxing her, before he kissed her forehead..
