The weather in February is quite pleasant for adults, but it’s always a bit chilly for a small child. Especially after Nie Zhao took his wife and son to Kuala Lumpur for the Lunar New Year; since they returned, Ayuan’s throat had been slightly raspy, and he had a runny nose. With the yacht heading out to Sai Kung Bay, where it was even colder, Nie Zhao was worried his son might catch a cold.
Ayuan would eat his meals and drink his milk, but he refused to take medicine, especially the bitter kind. No matter how you tried to feed it to him, he would spit it right back out. Boss Nie had no choice but to stop trying. He also hated shots. Now that he was older, getting vaccinated was a nightmare. Just a few days ago, when a nurse came to the house, Ayuan was fine at first, but the moment the needle went in, he let out a shriek and pulled it out himself. Not only did he pull it out, but he also managed to pinch the needle tip until it bent. The nurse was so frightened she cried and ran away, and Ayuan still hadn't received his scheduled vaccine.
Helpless, Nie Zhao called back Kuangzai—who had recently left to open a clinic—or rather, Brother Kuangzai. Lately, he had been coming over specifically to perform *guasha* on the little one, hoping to clear the wet rales in his lungs. Of course, even though Nie Zhao had brought the child onto the boat, he and Kuangzai stayed by his side, attending to him with the utmost care.
