He turned his head and gently called to Wu Hu to wake him up.

"Wake up, hooray."

Wu Hu rubbed his eyes, looked at He Zhizhou for a moment with a blank expression, and then, once he came to his senses, a hint of panic appeared in his eyes.

"Where's your aunt?"

"Chew, chew, chew...delicious!"

Wu Hu: "..."

Bai Yisha seemed to suddenly remember something and looked up at Wu Hu: "Ah, I forgot you were still asleep."

Wu Hu: "..."

Her little mouth pursed.

He Zhizhou smiled and picked up Wu Hu. Wu Hu didn't resist and buried her face in He Zhizhou's neck as if in a huff.

It smelled like this just before I went to sleep.

The faint scent of pine is refreshing and pleasant, so comforting that it makes you want to sleep.

"Honey, you're sick. Eat something first, then take your medicine and go to sleep. Your auntie will stay here with you."

He Zhizhou coaxed her gently, his voice magnetic and melodious, carrying a deep allure that made Bai Yisha look up a few times.

For some reason, I was reminded of Song Yumi from last night's live stream.

Why call him "Corn" when he was just a proper scholar named Song Yushu?

But his voice is really nice.

He is comparable to He Zhizhou.

She picked up another green bean and put it in her mouth: "Chew, chew, chew... Little Wu, are you afraid I'll run away? Do you think I'm such a... heartless person?"

Although he had only spent a few days with Uhu, the little guy seemed to really like him.

He Zhizhou continued, "The moment your aunt found out you were sick, she was so scared she didn't even eat."

"Hmph." At least she has some conscience.

Wu Hu let out a soft hum.

For such a young age, he's quite arrogant.

He Zhizhou put him by the bedside and gave him a bowl of rice. He took the initiative to pick up some food and eat it, which surprised He Zhizhou.

This kid is quite...independent.

He Zhizhou saw a reflection of his past self in him.

"I don't want to take my medicine," Wu Hu muttered, head down as he ate.

"Chewing, chewing, chewing... I don't like it either, green beans are much better, chewing, chewing, chewing..."

Wu Hu glanced at Bai Yisha coolly, then remained silent.

He Zhizhou's eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness as he said, "You don't have to take medicine. If the illness gets serious later, you can just get an injection."

Wu Hu's hand trembled slightly as he shoveled down a couple of mouthfuls of rice, his little face all scrunched up.

“A real man would usually take his medicine on his own, unless he’s not a real man…” He Zhizhou said quietly, having also placed a box of food next to him.

Wu Hu's little hand trembled again, and he remained silent, seemingly engaged in a battle between heaven and man.

"Sasha."

"Huh?" Bai Yisha was focused on eating when she heard He Zhizhou call out. She looked up, somewhat puzzled, "What's wrong... chew, chew, chew."

She didn't notice that He Zhizhou had changed how he addressed her.

He Zhizhou looked helpless, a hint of hesitation on his face. Seeing her innocent look, he sighed and said, "Don't talk while eating, you might choke."

After finishing his meal, Wu Hu surprisingly asked He Zhizhou for his medicine.

He no longer counted on Bai Yisha, his unreliable aunt.

This surprised Bai Yisha.

This little brat actually took his medicine on his own?!

He Zhizhou smiled and went to get him the medicine.

After eating and drinking their fill, Bai Yisha suddenly said she was going out for a bit, and Wu Hu was asleep again.

When she returned, she was accompanied by three more caregivers.

He Zhizhou: "?"

Bai Yisha had already spotted the caregiver in the next bed. As soon as she finished eating and the caregiver left, she ran out and asked for their company's contact information.

I used my own money to hire three caregivers for Grandma He, who could take turns on duty, and the price was twice as much.

All she asked was for them to do their best, and to speak up promptly if there were any problems. She would replace anyone who didn't perform well, pay them a monthly salary, and sign a six-month contract.

Bai Yisha brought in three caregivers, who were all around 25 years old.

The moment they came in and saw He Zhizhou, their eyes lit up.

“This is the caregiver I hired for Grandma. She works in shifts from morning to night, so you can relax a bit, Aze.”

"you......"

“I’ve already signed the contract and paid the deposit, so I can’t get it back, hehe.” As if she knew what He Zhizhou was going to say, she interrupted him directly: “I’ve already said it, if you’re not willing to spend the money I give you, I’ll spend as much money as you can on your grandma.”

She lowered her voice considerably when she said the last sentence.

I even showed him the contract displayed on my phone.

Although he didn't quite agree with her spending money again, her actions left He Zhizhou speechless for a moment.

resignedly.

Angry.

It's funny.

Why does this girl like spending money on him so much?

What if I get scammed?

When Grandma He found out, she quickly asked Bai Yisha to cancel the offer. Bai Yisha gave the same explanation, and Grandma He didn't know what to say.

Bai Yisha chuckled and said to Grandma He, "Grandma, you've got one thing wrong. I didn't lend money to Aze. I gave it to him because Aze saved my life. He wouldn't accept my offer of marriage, so I just gave him the money."

He Zhizhou: "......"

This girl doesn't even bother to write a draft when she's making up lies.

But he couldn't do anything about her.

He was afraid that if he said something inappropriate, she would throw money at him again.

Grandma He was slightly taken aback, somewhat disbelieving, but looking at her eldest grandson's good looks, she paused for a moment, then solemnly said to Bai Yisha, "Yisha, you're only eighteen, still so young. Your studies are the most important thing..."

“Mmm, I know, I know, hehehe…” Bai Yisha nodded vigorously: “Anyway, Aze doesn’t owe me any money. If he says he owes me money again, I’ll have to pay him.”

[System: Money is so pitiful, why did you send it to Money?]

Bai Yisha: [Your Majesty, you're being childish.]

......

Because Bai Yisha had hired a caregiver, Grandma He asked He Zhizhou to take her and Wu Hu back first.

Bai Yisha didn't hesitate either.

Seeing that Wu Hu was still sleeping, He Zhizhou simply carried him away.

Back at He Zhizhou's place, he tidied up his own room and his grandmother's room, and moved a quilt onto the sofa.

Bai Yisha looked on in surprise and asked, "Why did you bring the blanket out?"

He Zhizhou fiddled with the pillows and casually said, "My room is too small to fit two people. Make room for Grandma, and I'll sleep on the sofa."

Bai Yisha inwardly cried out at his actions.

One hundred stars!!!

but......

"That little guy is sick... He needs someone to stay with him, I have to stay with him."

Bai Yisha's words made He Zhizhou pause in his tidying.

He ignored this.

He Zhizhou frowned, thought for a moment, then picked up the quilt, carried it back to his grandmother's room, and came out to discuss it with Bai Yisha.

"I'll sleep in the same room as Hu Hu. Grandma's room is bigger, and I have experience taking care of people, so it'll be better if I take care of Hu Hu. I'm sorry to trouble you to sleep in my bedroom. I've already changed the sheets and cleaned my bedroom. Do you think that's okay?"
