Xu Musen was confined to bed.
The girls, upon hearing the news, rushed over one after another, anxious to check on him.
"I noticed he seemed to have caught a cold last night, but he was still acting tough. Now, he has to face reality."
"He's simply too exhausted and has been pushing himself too hard. Otherwise, if he had collapsed on the island, we would have been even more worried..."
The girls were all clever and quickly surmised that Xu Musen was persisting for their sake, which moved them deeply.
A man like him truly provided a sense of security.
Looking at Xu Musen now, his face flushed with fever and lying in his blankets, the girls' eyes flickered with concern.
An Nannan approached the bed and extended her small hand to feel Xu Musen's forehead.
Hmm... so hot.
Then she leaned her little head closer and quietly perched her ear in front of his nose to listen.
Oh... there's still breathing.
"I'm telling you... it's just a cold, I'm not dead yet..."
