A domineering CEO falls in love with me, an unmarried mother of seven!

Chapter 100 A Terrifying Nightmare

Sunlight streamed onto the ground outside the pet hospital.

The three little guys, Erbao, Qibao, and Liubao, stood there.

Erbao held the tightly bandaged kitten in his arms, Liubao carried the cat bed, and Qibao gently stroked the kitten's head beside him.

Just as they were about to leave, Zhao Da Kuang walked over.

He had a slight smile on his face, as if he had something to say.

Liu Bao struggled to lift the cat bed and said to Er Bao and Qi Bao, "We have to hurry, or we'll be late for school." Er Bao nodded and pulled Qi Bao toward the school.

Seeing this, Zhao Dakuang quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Kids, it's so inconvenient for you to bring a kitten to school."

How about this, you can leave the kitten at our veterinary clinic for now, and come pick it up after school.

His eyes held a hint of sincerity as he tried to persuade the children to accept the suggestion.

Qibao turned her head, her big eyes blinking as she looked at Zhao Dakang, a hesitant expression on her small face.

She turned to look at Liu Bao and asked softly, "Sixth Brother, should we leave the kitten here?"

Liu Bao thought for a moment and replied, "No need, we can let the driver take the kitten home first."

Qibao nodded upon hearing this.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she frowned and said, "But... Mommy said before that we can't bring small animals home casually. If she finds out, we'll get scolded."

When Zhao Dakuang heard Qibao mention "Mommy," he began to imagine Su Yingxue, this "Mommy," looking angry.

He thought that Su Yingxue must be a very strict person as a mother, otherwise why would Qibao be so scared?

However, he couldn't help but imagine how adorable Su Yingxue would be when she was a mother and faced with the children's naughtiness.

The more he thought about it, the more interesting it seemed. He secretly resolved to get Su Yingxue's attention as soon as possible.

How wonderful it would be to live happily together with her then.

He was lost in his own fantasy, a silly grin unconsciously spreading across his face.

Erbao was walking ahead when he heard Qibao's worry and stopped.

He scratched his head, his eyes lighting up: "We can put the kitten with Great-Grandma, Mommy won't find out."

Great-Grandma loves animals, she'll definitely take good care of the kitten.

Upon hearing this, Qibao's eyes lit up, and she jumped up happily: "Yes, Great-Grandma will definitely be very happy!"

After saying that, she skipped and hopped along with her two older brothers to the car, humming a cheerful little tune.

Zhao Er and the veterinarian from the pet hospital came out of the room and saw Zhao Da Kuang standing at the door grinning foolishly.

Zhao Er stared wide-eyed, his face full of surprise, and said to the doctor, "Look at the eldest brother, he's actually smiling. I haven't seen him smile like that in a long time... It's so strange."

The doctor nodded, equally incredulous at Zhao Da Kuang's smile.

After all, in their impression, Zhao Da Kuang always had a cold expression and rarely showed such an expression.

……

Su Yingxue lay on the bed, her face flushed and her forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.

Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her body trembled slightly from time to time, clearly suffering from a high fever.

Tan Zhengchu sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes filled with heartache.

He picked up a soft towel and gently soaked it in the basin of water.

Then he carefully wrung it out, afraid that even a single drop of water might accidentally splash onto Su Yingxue.

He first gently wiped the sweat from Su Yingxue's forehead, his movements so gentle that the towel left a cool sensation wherever it touched.

Then, he slowly wiped Su Yingxue's cheeks and neck.

Every movement was filled with tenderness and love.

She kept whispering, "Baby, get well soon."

And so, two hours passed under Tan Zhengchu's meticulous care.

Su Yingxue's fever finally subsided, and she drifted off to sleep.

Just as Tan Zhengchu was about to take a break, he suddenly heard Su Yingxue scream.

"Ah!" Su Yingxue suddenly sat up in bed with a start.

Her eyes were wide open, filled with terror.

More beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his pajamas were soaked through.

Her body trembled violently, as if she had just escaped from a terrible abyss.

She shouted, "Seven Treasures!"

The voice was filled with fear and helplessness, as if it were a terrifying experience in a dream.

Tan Zhengchu hurriedly got up, sat on the edge of the bed, and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.

Then, in a deep and warm voice, he said, "Yingxue, don't be afraid, it's just a nightmare. Qibao and the others will be alright."

Su Yingxue leaned against Tan Zhengchu's chest, feeling as if all her strength had been drained, leaving her limp and weak.

She asked weakly, "Zhengchu, what's wrong with me? I feel like I have no strength at all."

Tan Zhengchu gently patted her back and explained softly, "You had a fever all night. Although the fever has subsided, you may still feel a little weak. You should rest well."

Su Yingxue blinked, feeling her mind go sluggish, as if shrouded in a fog.

She gently shook her head and said, "I... I don't think I have any other discomfort."

She paused for a moment, then said, "I want to sleep a little longer."

Tan Zhengchu carefully placed her back on the bed, pulled the blanket over her, and his eyes were full of worry.

He reached out and touched Su Yingxue's forehead, and only breathed a slight sigh of relief after confirming that her temperature was normal.

Su Yingxue closed her eyes, wanting to fall asleep again.

But after a short while, she suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes filled with terror.

She gripped Tan Zhengchu's arm tightly, her voice trembling as she asked, "Zhengchu, Qibao and the others... will they be alright?"

I just had another terrible nightmare. I'm so afraid something will happen to Qibao.

Tan Zhengchu held her hand, letting her feel his strength.

Then, looking at her with a firm gaze, he said gently, "Honey, don't worry, we've arranged for someone to take care of the babies."

Those people are highly trained; they will protect the children's safety as if it were their own lives.

Every child has a dedicated caregiver, so there won't be any problems, whether at school or on their way to or from school.

As Tan Zhengchu spoke, he gently stroked Su Yingxue's hair with his other hand, trying to calm her down.

As Su Yingxue listened to Tan Zhengchu's words, the fear in her eyes gradually faded.

She nodded slightly.

Only then did his tense nerves relax, and he slowly closed his eyes.

Tan Zhengchu returned to the sofa, sat down, and turned on his computer to start working.

But his heart was always with Su Yingxue in bed.

He thought to himself that being with her, even just quietly watching her, was a kind of happiness.

He was willing to endure all her pain, as long as she could get better soon.
