The Sweetest Medicine

As Yu Gangan and Fang Zhihan left, they noticed Qiao Pan’er hiding behind the potted plants looking pale and dazed.

The couple walked straight out of the party and headed for their car. “What did you say to Qiao Pan’er?” Yu Gangan asked as soon as they sat inside.

“I was simply passing by,” Fang Zhihan replied casually.

Did this response mean he said nothing?

Yu Gangan didn’t believe him.

Judging by Qiao Pan’er’s expression, Yu Gangan was sure that she tried to seduce Fang Zhihan again while she wasn’t around, but she must have been insulted by him.

After all, Fang Zhihan had a sharp tongue, and when he argued with others, he never held back; Yu Gangan had witnessed it first-hand.

His words were probably too harsh and Qiao Pan’er’s skin was probably too thin to handle it. But, the woman only had herself to blame. Who told her to provoke Fang Zhihan?

The drive back was very quiet as Yu Gangan leaned back in her seat and looked out the window. She was worried about Lin Jiayu. After all, her pregnancy was a problematic thing. No matter what decision she came to in the end, there was no perfect outcome.

If only there was a third option, for example, finding the father, asking him to marry her and building on their relationship later.

That way, Lin Jiayu could be with someone she loved while giving her child a complete family.

But, reality was not a novel. A perfect situation like that was practically impossible.

One could only think about it.

At that moment, the car suddenly came to a stop. Yu Gangan glanced outside and noticed that they hadn’t arrived home yet. Instead, they were stopped outside a hotpot restaurant. So, she looked at Fang Zhihan questioningly and asked, “Why did you stop? Do you want to eat hotpot?”

Fang Zhihan did not reply. He simply looked straight at her.

When he noticed the confusion on Yu Gangan’s face, he held onto the steering wheel and started turning away.

But, Yu Gangan immediately called out, “Wait, wait…”

Fang Zhihan peered sideways at her and asked, “Why? Do you want hotpot?”

Yu Gangan shook her head, “No, I want to buy a cup of milk tea.”

She hadn’t had dinner yet, but she knew dessert would satisfy her hunger. Even though she didn’t have the appetite for hotpot, she could definitely do with one cup of milk tea.

Fang Zhihan: “…”

She normally loved hotpot.

Yu Gangan got out of the car and bought two cups of milk tea: one hot and one cold.

She liked drinking cold drinks, but it was the middle of winter, so she assumed Fang Zhihan would want to drink something hot.

As she passed the hot drink to Fang Zhihan, he glanced at her and grabbed the cold drink from her other hand.

Yu Gangan looked at him in surprise, “Do you also like cold milk tea?”

“It’s too cold. You’re not allowed to have cold drinks in winter again,” Fang Zhihan said. He then paused and added, “Listen to me, you’re a patient.”

The man’s voice was doting with a little restraint.

As Yu Gangan listened to him talk, her heart began to race rapidly. She subconsciously sucked on the straw to get a big mouthful of the milk tea, hoping to calm her unsettled heart.

But as the hot milk tea entered her stomach, it made her body heat up even more.

She had actually had a follow-up exam already and her body was fine…

She wasn’t a patient anymore.

The quiet car was suddenly filled with an ambiguous vibe.

As soon as the car stopped outside her apartment building, the nervous Yu Gangan immediately tried to jump out. But, she forgot to unlatch her seatbelt and was roughly thrown back into her seat.

She subconsciously looked at Fang Zhihan and smiled to hide her awkwardness.

But, Fang Zhihan’s dark eyes contained a sense of amusement.
