Chapter 655: 655 I like you, I like you very much (1)_1
After the acupuncture session, the old doctor left first, saying he couldn’t stand to watch young people being romantic with each other and he walked out, shaking his head.
"It was merely darning a button, and Grandpa Zhang assumed we’re being overly intimate." Saying this, he quickly started mending the button.
He imagined her standing in front of him every morning, buttoning his shirt one by one, fixing his tie, and leaving a lingering kiss on his lips. If this could be his ritual before he leaves for work every day, it would invariably make his day wonderful.
She was giving him that similar feeling now.
The old doctor prepared a Chinese medical prescription for him, asking, "Have you ever had Chinese medicine?"
"I’ve had it when I was a child."
"Are you used to it?"
Before he could answer, Eleven interjected, "Prescribe it! Good medicine tastes bitter. I’ll make sure he drinks it all obediently."
Wearing his glasses, the old doctor began preparing the medical prescription and replied, "I think he will drink it even if it’s poison you prepare for him."
"Will you drink it?" Eleven turned to ask him.
"Absolutely, I will drink it," he answered sweetly.
"Ice has been applied, acupuncture has been done, and medicine has been given. All of these promote blood circulation and remove stasis. You can have them for now. Eleven said you’d only be here for a day, so I’ll say what needs to be said today. Rest well these few days. If you can’t sleep lying down, you’ll just have to sleep on your stomach. Search online for what you need to pay attention to. Nowadays there are many resources online. As long as you follow them, it won’t get worse. You are young and strong, don’t worry too much."
Gu Liancheng said, "If it involves coming here, I am willing to do so every day."
He felt as if meeting Grandpa Zhang today was like meeting a potential father-in-law for the first time. Maybe frequent trips to Grandpa Zhang’s place could accelerate their relationship.
Eleven quickly ushered him outside, "Even if you’re willing, Grandpa Zhang might not be. You might disturb his business!"
The old doctor in the room protested, "Who said that? I’m up for it. It will be more lively."
...
Back home, Aunt Fang was still up, fiddling with something in the kitchen.
"Auntie, what are you doing?"
"I am making some snacks. I’ve asked for leave tomorrow with Mr Fang. I’m preparing them now to store in the refrigerator, so you can heat them up in the microwave when you return."
"Don’t worry, Auntie, we’ll figure it out if we are hungry. Can you boil this medicinal recipe for him instead? Nevermind the snacks, It’s getting late. You should rest after you boil this medicine."
"Hey, it’s fine, I’ll make them while boiling the medicine."
"Then let me help you——"
"No need, this medicine smells bitter. Miss Fang, you don’t like the smell of it."
She had not liked bitter things since she was little, so she did not insist.
As she walked out of the kitchen, Gu Liancheng came down from the second floor.
"Has Second Treasure fallen asleep?" Eleven asked.
"Yes."
"Auntie is boiling medicine for you in the kitchen." Eleven pointed towards the kitchen.
"Is she? It will probably take some time, then. I am going to the beach to get some fresh air. Would you like to join me?"
"Sure, lest you collapse on the beach alone and can’t come back."
Gu Liancheng lightly curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a slight smile.
"Let’s go."
In Xicheng’s June, it finally started getting hot. However, this villa was located by the sea, so it was still somewhat chilly in the evening. He picked up a jacket, draped it over his hand and walked out with Eleven.
Aunt Fang watched them leave together, reminding her of a couple who had been married for many years, going for an after-dinner walk.
Actually, she just couldn’t understand why such a loving couple would separate.
