That evening, after taking a bath, Zhou Si's emotions had calmed down considerably.

Marcy had the kitchen cook something and bring it up to him so he could have something to eat.

Zhou Si didn't eat much.

He looked very tired; his eyelids were heavy.

So after eating a few bites, he put down his spoon and lay down to rest.

Marcy was worried, so she quietly stayed by his side.

Zhou Si lay down and surprisingly fell asleep very quickly.

Even after falling asleep, I still felt restless, as if I were trapped in a nightmare.

His brows furrowed slightly, and his expression showed some pain.

In the latter half of the night, his emotions suddenly became extremely unstable.

Large beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, and he even developed a high fever.

Occasionally, he would mumble a few words incoherently.

But the voice was too faint to understand what he was saying.

Marcy was a light sleeper and was immediately awakened by Zhou Si's strange behavior.

She opened her eyes and saw Zhou Si's appearance, and her heart ached terribly.

She instinctively wanted to wake him up.

But Zhou Si was fast asleep.

They showed no response to external stimuli.

Left with no other option, Marcy had to go downstairs to find some fever reducers to help him recover.

Perhaps when opening the door, they weren't careful enough and made a lot of noise, which woke up Shah Rukh in the next room.

He quickly got up, put on his clothes, and hurriedly left the bedroom to find out what was going on.

When she learned that Zhou Si was sick, she felt worried and also felt sorry for her daughter.

Without saying a word, he came over to help deal with it.

Xiao Zhi and Shi Yi, who both slept late, also heard the noise.

When I came to check on him, Zhou Si had developed a headache.

Clearly, the old problem has resurfaced.

Xiao Zhi was puzzled after reading it and asked, "Weren't those people already dealt with and sent to the police station? Why is this still happening?"

He didn't go to the scene tonight.

Zhou Si considered the potential danger and didn't let him go on the risk.

Therefore, he knew nothing about the specifics of tonight's events.

They were unaware that Zhou Si had suffered a severe shock.

With tears in her eyes, Marcy replied, "There's still a thorn in his heart that he hasn't removed."

Xiao Zhi was even more confused.

He didn't understand what Marcy meant by "thorn."

After thinking for a moment, Shi Yi suddenly asked, "Could it be about his mother?"

Marcy nodded, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Shah Rukh and Xiao Zhi were unaware of the situation and quickly pressed for details.

Marcy didn't say anything.

Finally, Shi Yi had to explain the general situation.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi was so angry he wanted to kill someone.

He couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, that vicious dead woman, even on her deathbed she's still so restless."

She's trying to ruin Ah Si!!!

Knowing full well that he couldn't let go of his past with his mother, she deliberately let him know that she had used such despicable means to torment her.

Isn't that like stabbing him in the heart with a knife?

Shah Rukh also sighed.

How can there be such a ruthless person in this world?

Her actions are simply unforgivable!

Seeing this, Marcy quickly instructed the two, "Don't let the old man know about this, understand?"

Zhou Si knew that if things were like this, and the old man found out, he would probably have a complete breakdown!

The two of them naturally understood.

Xiao Zhi, as his good brother, was on the verge of tears.

He said worriedly, "Ah Si was already very concerned about her mother's death, and now with this added shadow, I'm afraid he won't be able to get over it!"

Marcy, however, was unusually firm and said decisively, "No, I will stay with him until he gets through this."

Moreover, Zhou Si is not such a fragile person!

I believe he will be able to get through this given enough time.

You must also believe in him.

Shah Rukh agreed with what his daughter said.

He nodded and said, "Zhou Si has an indomitable will. He was so young before, and it was so difficult, but he still managed to get through it."

Right now, it's probably just a temporary shock. Time is the best medicine for healing heartache, and you'll get over it sooner or later!

Moreover, he has family, friends, and loved ones by his side; everything will be alright.

Xiao Zhi agreed wholeheartedly upon hearing this.

No matter what, he will always be there for A-Si whenever he needs him.

……

That night, Marcy planned to take care of Zhou Si by herself and let them all go back to rest.

Shahruk and Xiao Zhi were worried about her and even more afraid that she wouldn't be able to handle everything by herself, so they both stayed to help.

Shi Yi went back alone and looked at Tuya.

During the long night, the three of them worked together to take care of Zhou Si.

In addition, Masie's acupuncture treatment effectively relieved Zhou Si's severe headache.

At the same time, she thoughtfully lit calming incense in the room to help Zhou Si relax.

After the three of them worked through the night, Zhou Si's condition finally stabilized.

As the first rays of dawn streamed through the window into the room, Zhou Si's body temperature returned to normal.

The high fever has completely subsided.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhi and Shah Rukh finally relaxed their tense nerves.

They went back to their rooms to catch up on sleep, looking exhausted.

Marcy was wide awake and, taking advantage of the breakfast time, called Lu Yanjue.

She said, "Brother Yanjue, there's something I'd like to ask you."

On the other end of the phone, Lu Yanjue's voice was as calm and steady as ever, and he responded directly, "Go ahead."

Marcy took a deep breath and slowly said, "I'd like to ask you to help me find a lawyer."

She described her needs in detail, and talked for quite a while.

Lu Yanjue listened patiently and agreed almost without hesitation, "Okay, I'll help you find it."

I'll have my lawyer handle things at the police station. Just stay home and wait for news.

Marcy felt a surge of gratitude and quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Brother Yen-jue."

Lu Yanjue calmly replied, "It's nothing, no need to thank me."

The two exchanged a few more words before hanging up.

After putting her phone away, Marcy felt much more relaxed.

She took the breakfast, got up, and went upstairs.

Just then, Zhou Si woke up.

Marcy immediately went over to him with concern and asked about his condition.

Zhou Si sounded somewhat weak and listless, his voice carrying a hint of fatigue, as if he had not yet fully emerged from the dream.

He rubbed his head and said, "I think I had a very, very long dream."

Marcy told him helplessly, "Yes, you had a fever and a headache last night."

Hearing this, Zhou Si suddenly realized what was going on.

An apologetic expression immediately appeared on his face, and he said gently, "Thank you for taking care of me all night."

Marcy smiled slightly and replied casually, "It's not hard. Getting better is more important than anything else."

Get up and wash up first, eat breakfast, take your medicine later, and then take a nap.

Zhou Si actually didn't have much of an appetite.

However, in order not to make Marcy continue to worry, he forced himself to stay alert.

As she instructed, I got up, washed, and began to eat.

Seeing Zhou Si's cooperation, Ma Xi felt a little relieved.

She thought for a moment, then said to him, "I asked Brother Yanjue to hire a lawyer to bail Isha out."
