The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 361

"Hey, my stomach's not feeling so good. How about you find somewhere to have fun with the kids? I might take a while."

Nathaniel felt his entire body become weak after he sent the message.

As if he didn't have any strength at all.

However, Mango was rather worried when she saw Nathaniel's text message.

"Are you all right?"

"I'm fine, don't worry about me. I'll look for you guys soon."

Nathaniel was afraid that Mango would give him special medication again in the future. If she did, he doubted that his body would be able to take it.

He was a dignified president of an important company, but he was forced into such a horrible state by his own wife. Hence, Nathaniel was at a loss for words.

On the other hand, Mango had no choice but to comply since the children were impatiently waiting to go into the amusement park. Next, she replied, "Okay, come look for us later. Tell me if you're feeling uncomfortable, okay? I'll call the doctor for you. Some illnesses can't be left untreated."

"I got it. You're the best."

Nathaniel and Mango chatted for a while longer before they put down their phones.

Soon after, Noah arrived.

He immediately made his way to the bathroom as per Nathaniel’s instructions, but he couldn't help but laugh when he saw Nathaniel’s current state.

"How dehydrated are you? You even have a nosebleed!"

"Cut the crap and fix me. I don't know what the hell my wife fed me this morning, but i feel like I'm burning up."

Only then did Nathaniel finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Noah was an expert in Traditional Chinese Medicine, so naturally he had a lot of experience in this area.

"What’s going on? Is Mango trying to give you supplements? Isn't she afraid of overdoing it and ruining your health?"

Noah immediately went to check Nathaniel's pulse, but he burst out in laughter when he realised what was inside Nathaniel’s body.

"Seriously, do you have kidney problems when you're not even thirty? Everything she gave you is to boost kidney function."

"Ugh, get lost!"

It was the first time Nathaniel had ever been so ashamed, but what could he say when Mango was his wife?

"Oh, you definitely have to tell me what's going on."

Obviously, this situation piqued Noah's interest.

"Can you fix it or not?"

"How would I know if you don't tell me the details?"

Noah naturally wanted to see Nathaniel make a fool out of himself.

However, Nathaniel felt so sick that he paid no heed to Noah's joke. Then, he stuttered over his words as he told Noah the full story.

On the other hand, Noah stopped laughing after he heard Nathaniel's explanation.

Something similar had also occurred to his wife in the past, so he knew what Nathaniel was going through better than anyone.

"Don't you intend to tell Mango about this?"

"What for? It’ II only make her sad, and the doctor also expressed uncertainty about her future recovery. It's best if she doesn't get

pregnant within the next three years. If not, she might die along with the baby. Honestly, I guess that we should bear some things alone as men."

Nathaniel lit up a cigarette and took a long drag.

Noah understood Nathaniel's grievances, but he did not say anything further. Then, he quickly inserted a needle into one of Nathaniel's acupoints to relieve the burning heat in his body.

"It's not viable for you to keep doing this either. Mango won't stop feeding you the medicine since she is convinced that you're ill. Clearly, you don't expect me to keep doing this for you every day?"

Noah's question was logical, and it rendered Nathaniel somewhat speechless.

"What should I do then? I guess I could hide."

"Where can you hide? You two live under the same roof and sleep on the same bed. Can you really avoid her forever? Aren't you afraid of it affecting your relationship?"

Noah's words made Nathaniel feel somewhat sullen.

"Then what do you think I should do?"

"How about this? Since you don't plan on sleeping with Mango anytime soon, I'll give you something that allows you to exhibit the symptoms of impotency. Then, you can drink whatever Mango gives you without any adverse side effects."

Then, Noah took out a bottle and handed it to Nathaniel.

"Do you really mean to make me impotent?"

"Well, it's reversible. Just stop taking it and you’ll be potent again. But I do have to warn you that eating this will cause side effects with prolonged use, so you will have to stop after a month. If not, you’ll be permanently impotent and I’ll have to give you even more medication by then."

Noah quickly added.

Then, Nathaniel nodded and said, "Got it. As for what happened today..."

"Don’t worry, my lips are sealed."

Of course Noah knew about Nathaniel' s concerns for his privacy.

"By the way, you should have Mango come and see me when she gets better. I might be able to help her with her condition. Just pay closer attention to her and don’t let her walk on the floor barefoot especially when she’s on her period. Furthermore, she must always stay warm and never have anything cold, not even a little. She needs to take good care of herself during this critical time."

"Thank you."

Then, Nathaniel realised that Mango and his kids must be worried because he'd been away for a long time. He muttered, "We’ll talk more later. I brought the children here today, and they'll be worried if I don't get back soon." "Sure, you' II be good to go after a bit of exercise."

"Got it!"

Next, Nathaniel rushed out of the bathroom and he felt much better than before.

Then, he managed to find where Mango and the kids were waiting for him and quickly ran over to them.

"Are you alright?"

Mango was extremely concerned, but she couldn't say anything in front of the children. Hence, she quickly asked Nathaniel when he walked up to them.

"I'm fine."

Nathaniel comforted her with a smile as he felt a warm glow in his chest.

Ah, he really loved his family so much!

The children were impatient when Nathaniel returned.

"Daddy, I want to go on the Merry-go-round, will you go with me?"

After all, it was Rita's first time here, so she felt like everything was straight out of a fairytale.

Then, she held Nathaniel's hand and clung to him. Her yearning expression made Nathaniel's heart ache.
