Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Chickenpox
“Forget it, I’ll find a place with no people so I don’t pass chickenpox on to you students. Oh, and remember to quickly go wash your hands with soap to disinfect after this.” Before leaving, she didn’t forget to give a final reminder.
“It can’t be that serious…” Luo Mengmeng muttered, not taking it to heart at all.
Just then, the homeroom teacher saw her and asked her to clean.
After that, Luo Mengmeng completely pushed the incident out of her mind.
However, a few days after returning from the nursing home, Luo Mengmeng started feeling unwell.
She kept having fevers, and even after being on a saline drip for several days, the fever wouldn’t subside.
She felt drowsy and lethargic every day.
Gu Zhihan, who was watching over her, had his handsome eyebrows furrowed as he asked Gu Dad, who was giving Luo Mengmeng an injection, for the nth time, “What exactly is wrong with her?”
Gu Dad also furrowed his brows, “I’m not sure for now. Look, if her fever still doesn’t go down after this injection today, I’ll arrange for a blood test.”
After all, a fever was no trivial matter.
However, before the blood test could be carried out, Luo Mengmeng’s real symptoms showed themselves.
Chickenpox erupted like bamboo shoots after the rain!
Luo Mengmeng’s body was covered with them.
Gu Zhihan was the first to notice, and he instantly understood.
Luo Mengmeng had chickenpox.
Chickenpox is a highly contagious disease, but it is also a very mild one, easily curable, and once cured, it grants lifelong immunity, meaning one won’t catch it again.
“So it’s chickenpox.” Gu Mom, who rushed over upon hearing the news, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been scared to death, thinking something serious had happened. If it was just chickenpox, then a good few days’ rest would heal it.
Gu Dad felt relieved too, “Probably she caught the virus.”
But Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but frown.
She was under his watch every day, how did he not know she had been in contact with any source of chickenpox infection?
Seeing Mengmeng awake, he couldn’t help but ask, “Did you come into contact with someone who had chickenpox?”
“No… wait, yes, it was that old lady!” Mengmeng suddenly remembered the elderly woman she had helped up.
She had mentioned that she had chickenpox.
“Which old woman?” Gu Zhihan was skeptical.
“It was the day we went to the nursing home. I was sleeping, then an old lady fell down, and I went to help her. Who knew she had chickenpox…” Luo Mengmeng spoke, then suddenly felt like crying, “If only I hadn’t been lazy that day.”
If she hadn’t been lazy and asleep, she wouldn’t have encountered the fallen old lady, nor would she have helped her, and she wouldn’t have contracted the infection.
Karma really comes back quickly…
Gu Zhihan: “…”
He remembered now.
It had been his idea for her to rest on the side that day.
Yet, he had inadvertently caused her to be infected with the chickenpox virus.
A feeling of guilt suddenly emerged in his heart.
However, Gu Mom didn’t think it was a bad thing, “Mengmeng, don’t be so disheartened. Most people will contract chickenpox at some point, and the earlier it happens, the better. If it occurs when you’re older, it can be much more severe.”
“That’s why in the past, people would specifically go to the hospital to get items used by chickenpox patients to expose their children to the virus early in childhood, so they could develop lifelong immunity and avoid suffering when they’re old.”
