Xie Jingchen supported his wife into the path of the west wing. With a swift motion, he swept her into his arms and, in a few large strides, carried her back to their own room.
As for Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi, following Xiao Si and Xiaoqi, they had already been soundly asleep in the inner chamber of Xie Tiesheng and his wife's hall since earlier.
From having a fever around seven in the morning until it subsided after nine, and now being past three in the afternoon, the presence of many people made Yan Jinsu feel very tired.
Once she began to feel tired, she noticed her head starting to heat up again.
The moment Xie Jingchen picked up his wife, he noticed her body temperature was slightly elevated.
It was a bit higher than the fever she had in the morning, maybe by half a degree.
"Wife, why didn't you tell me if you were feeling unwell?" Xie Jingchen was dissatisfied; such behavior from his wife deserved criticism.
