"He doesn’t want to go himself! Your Aunt Hui Zi is almost driven crazy by him. He keeps insisting he’s fine, he’s fine, and hasn’t even made it to the clinic these past two days. He says he’s postponed the few psychological counseling patients he had scheduled."
"And he won’t take his dicine?"
"He does take it, but not as prescribed. He takes it once, and then he’s too lazy to take it the next ti. That kid Baizhou is great in every other way, but when it cos to taking dicine and getting shots, he’s not so good. He’s been like this since he was young, doesn’t like shots or taking dicine."
Cen Jin pursed her lips, unable to hold back her frustration as she complained, "He’s such a grown man and he’s still afraid of shots and dicine. Does he think he’s a three-year-old child? So childish, seriously. Not taking dicine or getting shots only makes himself feel worse and worries Aunt Hui Zi."
"Exactly! So when we go back later, let’s stop by the pharmacy and you can take so dicine over to him and try to persuade him."
"?" Cen Jin looked at Ms. Qin in disbelief, pointing to herself with wide eyes.
"Yes, wasn’t it always you who persuaded Baizhou to take his dicine when he didn’t want to because of a cold before? Only your words work."
"..."
Cen Jin lowered her gaze, pursing her lips. Only her words work?
The heart that initially wanted to leave now seed to be wavering lancholically.
After shopping at the supermarket with Ms. Qin, Cen Jin actively took on the responsibility of carrying the items, despite Ms. Qin’s several attempts to take a couple of the small bags so as not to tire her. But Cen Jin decisively refused.
As they passed the pharmacy, Cen Jin finally put down the bags she was holding and walked into the pharmacy. Based on the owner’s advice, she bought three kinds of dicine.
Upon returning to the community and just as they were about to enter the courtyard, Ms. Qin gave her a look, hinting wildly at the villa next door with raised eyebrows. Cen Jin looked at her speechlessly, "I still need to take the stuff inside first, right? I can’t just leave it out here!"
"You put it down, I’ll carry it."
"..."
"Mom, must you try so hard?"
"It’s not that heavy, and I’m not so old that I can’t move. Just a few bags, do you really think I can’t carry them in? Who do you think you’re looking down on?"
"..."
Cen Jin was at a loss for words, nodding with a professional fake smile, "Alright, your health is fine, you’re strong, so I’ll head over."
"Go."
Cen Jin walked over, took a deep breath at Jiang Baizhou’s door, and rang the doorbell. It was Jiang Yuyang who opened the door, and as soon as Mr. Jiang saw that it was Cen Jin, he smiled and stepped aside to welco her, "Ah, it’s Cen Jin! Co in, is there sothing you need?"
"Uncle Jiang." Cen Jin sweetly replied, her eyes scanning the room as she tentatively asked, "Um... is Jiang Baizhou ho?"
"He is, he’s in his room upstairs!" Mr. Jiang answered while walking inside, "You’re looking for Baizhou, huh? He’s caught a cold these past few days and isn’t feeling well."
"Is it serious?" Cen Jin asked hastily, a bit worried.
"He only had so porridge this morning, didn’t even co down for lunch, sa as yesterday. I’ve been telling him and your Aunt Hui Zi for half a day to go see a doctor, but he just won’t listen. Normally, he seems so mature and steady, but the mont he gets sick, his childish side cos out."
"Then... can I go up to see him? I bought him so dicine on the way back." Cen Jin thought for a mont, then smiled and asked.
"Of course, you can. Your Aunt Hui Zi said today that she wanted you to persuade that kid. You thought of it more thoroughly than we did."
Cen Jin smiled apologetically, "It’s because he got sick because of my mom and , so I feel responsible."
"Cen Jin, there’s no need to say that. He’s a grown man, it’s not such a big deal when he gets sick. Go on up!"
"Okay."
