"He has already taken his medicine. He must take it every 8 hours until his fever has died down." The doctor instructed as he spoke to Lu Mello.

    Shi Enxi was sitting at the side of the bed, stroking her child''s head gently with a worried look on her face. She could feel how hot his forehead was. She should have not ignored Little Snow''s sudden change earlier. He was so quiet and he barely said a word to her and her husband before they left. She couldn''t help but blame herself for being an irresponsible mother to him.

    Lu Mello turned to his wife, "Xi''er, I''ll watch over Xiao Xue, you should-"

    "I''m not going anywhere." She replied firmly.

    "But you''re preg-" He stopped upon receiving a deathly glare from her.

    "I''m going to kill you if you say about another word of leaving our son here just because I''m pregnant. I will watch over him until he gets well."

    "..." How can he say no to that if she strongly insisted on staying? He was just worried since she might end up catching their son''s fever.

    She tore her glare from him and landed it on the sleeping child. Her eyes softened and with a gentle tone in her voice, she whispered, "Sweetie, mommy''s here..."

    As if hearing his mother''s voice, he hardly turned his body towards her, wanting to be in her gentle embrace.

    Shi Enxi decided to lie down beside him and cuddle him close to her as she continued to stroke his hair. "Everything will be alright, don''t worry."

    "Mama..." Little Snow snuggled against her for comfort, his shoulder finally relaxing against her warmth.

    "Mama''s here, mama''s here." She placed a soft kiss on his head before she turned to her husband.

    Lu Mello didn''t have a choice but to give in especially when he saw them that way. He turned to Mo Jing and asked, "have he eaten yet?"

    Mo Jing lightly shook her head, "Not yet. I''ll go prepare some porridge for him."

    "Thank you."

    After she left, the doctor followed. Lu Mello walked towards the bed and sat on the edge of the bed. "Looks like we won''t be able to bring him to the amus.e.m.e.nt park today..." He smiled sadly as he stared down at his son.

    "We can still do that once he feels better." She replied with a whisper.

    The only problem would be the conflict of schedules for both Little Snow''s parents. Lu Mello was still a busy man while Shi Enxi was slowly becoming occupied when she started working again especially with the upcoming movie Fan Xiao Yao''s in. Maybe she really should just stay at home to watch over her son? She should do that after Fan Xiao Yao''s movie become successful.

    Shi Enxi couldn''t help but sigh inwardly. She didn''t want her son to grow up knowing his parents weren''t there for him because of how busy they were. Growing without being showered by their parent''s warmth was something she didn''t want. When her father was still alive and her family was still together, despite being a busy man, Shi Enxi''s father was still there to shower them with affection. Besides, her father would always make up for the times he missed. Aside from that, her father never missed a birthday and other celebration involving their family. If he was busy that day, then he would change his work schedule.

    Shi Enxi and Lu Mello could do the same but she couldn''t help but think about the times where they were away. Little Snow was still young and very s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e. Deep inside, she knew that maybe the cause of his fever was also because of them. She should have brought him to work sometimes just like how Fan Xiao Yao would bring Little Jade to work. Although unlike Little Jade who was well-behaved, Little Snow was naughty. She feared that just like any normal child, he would easily distract her from work.

    She inwardly sighed. Her work required her to be full-time. She was not only a Manager but also a Director. She had to deal with the problems inside the department she was handling. LPM is a small company under her brother. Qiao Nuan was the person she left in-charged of her position when she left but she was now gone, dead. She didn''t have another person she could trust... unless she would have to look for one in the company but to do that, she would need to test them.

    Her goal when she went back to work was to at least help the company grow big. It has been a while since she last met the CEO. She wanted to settle things at work first but with Little Snow becoming like this, it was hard to move around freely. Her son was not the only restriction she has but also her next child. Being pregnant didn''t make it easier for her to work. It was not the right time to work full-time but her work required one. She has been neglecting her duty as a mother and it was something that Shi Enxi didn''t want. She loved her son but she also loved her work but at times like this, she had to choose one.

    Taking care of children was never easy. She was grateful that Nanny Mo Jing was there to take care of Little Snow but being taken care of by a mother was still different. Also, she couldn''t let her take care of her son forever. Nanny Mo Jing was already old and she knew that she was planning to resign from her work to live with her family.

    Shi Enxi didn''t want to assign anyone so easy to replace Nanny Mo Jing. Becoming a nanny is an important job too since they would influence the children. If she chose the wrong person, she could fill Little Snow''s mind with lies and even deceive him. If she assigned someone by mistake then one day, her son might end up hating her and treat his nanny as his own mother instead.

    She feared for Little Snow who was innocent and pure. Unlike Little Jade who knew how to be wary of others, Little Snow easily trusts and get along with everyone because of his lively personality.

    Should she sacrifice her work again and focus herself on her children until they were old enough?
