Chapter 807: Becoming An Idiot (2)
Translator: Lordbluefire
Shen Ruojing clenched her fist tightly, feeling deeply guilty. “1 blame myself for not paying enough attention to the children usually…”
At this moment, Shen Ruojing was filled with immense guilt.
Chu Cichen immediately interrupted her, “I am the children’s father, and 1 am even more negligent. But fortunately, the virus is not highly contagious. Xiaomeng and Chu Yu are fine.”
“Jingjing, it’s no use blaming ourselves now. We should be strong. Little Ye is still young, even if… I believe there’s still hope!”
Shen Ruojing knew that Chu Cichen was right.
But as a mother, even though she had been neglectful of their education, she loved her children deeply.
She took a deep breath and said, “I understand. If Ye really becomes an idiot, then 1 will make sure he becomes the happiest and richest fool in the world!”
Chu Cichen nodded, “Alright.”
After hanging up the phone, Shen Ruojing stared at her mobile phone for a while, then turned around to take care of Chu Tianye.
But as she turned around, she saw Chu Tianye staring at her with a pair of bright eyes.
Shen Ruojing was overjoyed and rushed to Chu Tianye’s side, “Little Ye, you’re awake!”
However, Chu Tianye’s expression gradually became vacant. Then, he opened his mouth and said, “Mommy… hug… me…”
Shen Ruojing didn’t think much and reached out to hug him.
The six-year-old child was thin, without much flesh on his body. His small face had become much thinner, and at only 40 pounds with a height of 1.2 meters, it made her heart ache to hold him.
“Little Ye, everything’s fine now, you’re better…”
But the next moment, she heard Chu Tianye say, “Mommy, eat eggs—”
Shen Ruojing, ??
What does he mean by these repeated words?
She carefully observed Chu Tianye.
The little guy looked very healthy, and his pulse was a bit weak, but still normal. However, his reactions were clearly abnormal!
Chu Tianye stopped using baby talk when he was three years old because he didn’t like being treated like a child.
Even when they were outside, he always acted like a little adult…
Thinking of this, Shen Ruojing asked tentatively, “Little Ye, how old are you this year?”
Chu Tianye blinked his big eyes, “Three years old-!”
Shen Ruojing,”!!”
Chu Tianye had regressed to the way he was at three years old. His brain… had definitely been damaged!
Shen Ruojing worriedly had various tests conducted on him, including ultrasounds, Doppler scans, brainwave tests, and more, but they all showed no problems!
“Why is this happening?” Shen Ruojing couldn’t understand.
Chu Cichen couldn’t help but speak, “Since the tests show no issues, then there shouldn’t be any issues. Let’s observe for a while. If he can still grow, it’s just that he lacks the memories of the past three years. We can make new memories for him from the age of three to six.”
Shen Ruojing pursed her lips.
She understood this logic, but she was afraid that… Chu Tianye’s brain would remain forever at the age of three and never grow older.
She remained deeply worried.
But seeing Chu Tianye eating, drinking, laughing, running, and jumping, looking entirely healthy except for his childish speech, Shen Ruojing could only accept the reality.
TWo weeks later, everyone’s isolation ended.
The more severe the symptoms of the virus, the lower its contagiousness, which was the rule that viruses evolved over time.
This virus was indeed severe, but its contagiousness had also decreased somewhat.
Apart from the first source of infection and Chu Tianye, two other people were infected. One died, and the other was left disabled due to delayed fever reduction.
But because they were isolated in time, the infection didn’t spread widely, which was still something to celebrate.
Among the four infected individuals, Chu Tianye recovered the best.
So, in the days that followed, as they gradually faced reality, Shen Ruojing also slowly accepted this fact.
After all, Little Ye didn’t become mentally disabled, which was already a stroke of good luck in misfortune.
On this day, Shen Ruojing took Chu Tianye home.
She looked at Chu Tianye, who was happily biting his finger, and couldn’t help but rub her forehead, walking over to hold his hand. “Little Ye, let’s go home.”
Chu Tianye’s eyes lit up, “Yeah, let’s go home- I can go out to play now-”
The three-year-old Chu Tianye had been confined in the hospital room for so long that he was bored.
Shen Ruojing and Chu Tianye returned home.
Chu Tianye asked, “Mommy, where’s little sister?”
Shen Ruojing replied, “She’s at home waiting for you.”
Then she added, “By the way, you also have a big brother.”
Chu Tianye widened his eyes, “What’s a big brother? Can he be eaten?”
Shen Ruojing,…
At home, they saw Matriach Chu with the two younger siblings along with Chu Cichen and Chu Cimo’s family waiting. When Matriarch Chu saw Chu Tianye, her eyes turned red instantly.
Chu Tianye immediately ran over to hug her and then went to Chu Xiaomeng, “Little sister, here’s a gift for you.”
After saying that, he placed the little biscuit from the hospital room into Chu Xiaomeng’s hand.
Chu Xiaomeng,”…”
Her eyes turned slightly red, and she choked, “Big brother.”
Then she noticed Chu Tianye staring at her as if expecting something.
It seemed that Chu Tianye wasn’t satisfied with Chu Xiaomeng’s reaction, so he blinked his eyes and asked, “Where’s my gift?”
Chu Xiaomeng,”?”
