The Sweetest Medicine

Li Nansheng looked at Lin Jiayu and lectured her angrily, “Lin Jiayu, what kind of friend have you made? You are ruining your own life.”

The silent Lin Jiayu slowly lifted her head and looked at Li Nansheng. As she clenched her fists, she said, “I make good friends, of course. Compared to the kind of scum that betrays their friends, she is on the opposite end of the scale.”

Li Nansheng was shocked by Lin Jiayu’s attitude.

Yu Gangan glanced at him coldly and smiled at Lin Jiayu: “Jiayu, ignore people that are full of themselves that think the whole world revolves around them. Let them love each other and help everyone collect the garbage.”

Li Nansheng stared angrily at Yu Gangan, “You woman, how could you scold people like that?”

Yu Gangan spread her palms innocently, “Did I scold someone?”

She then looked at Lin Jiayu and repeated, “Did I scold someone?”

Lin Jiayu shook her head, “No, you were simply speakng the truth.”

They were clearly garbage.

Why did Lin Jiayu have to hide from them? They were the ones that betrayed her. She should stride forward and smile proudly.

Li Nansheng stared into Lin Jiayu’s eyes. He was so angry that he was about to spit fire. He also felt a trace of disappointment.

Zhang Yuzhi bit her lip and looked at Lin Jiayu with her pitifully red eyes, “Jiayu, I’ve already apologized. Why can’t you forgive me? I didn’t want this. I simply loved Nansheng too much. Besides, I already told you, if you are willing to forgive me, I can…”

She looked at Li Nansheng sadly and said painfully between gritted teeth, “I can give Nansheng back to you.”

She was like a little white flower blooming in the wind and rain; both weak and strong.

Yu Gangan creased her forehead and asked Lin Jiayu opposite her, “Why do I feel like a fly is circling my ear endlessly. Do you know these people, Jiayu?”

Lin Jiayu grew more and more comfortable.

She shook her head, “No.”

The glimpse she gave them was cold like the frozen deep sea ice of Antarctica.

Lin Jiayu’s attitude deeply shocked Li Nansheng.

She furrowed her brows in disbelief.

“They’re so noisy that they’re disturbing the guests from eating. Those that don’t know, might think that they’re salespeople. Doesn’t the restaurant care?” Yu Gangan raised her hand and waved at a waiter. “Waiter…”

Yu Gangan got the waiter to send them away.

Zhang Yuzhi and Li Nansheng had no choice but to leave. But, they did not return to their seat. Instead, they directly left the restaurant.

…

Lin Jiayu felt refreshed. It turned out, facing them wasn’t as difficult as she thought.

Nor was it as heartbreaking as she expected. It seemed, she didn’t love Li Nansheng that much, or perhaps, she couldn’t accept that her sincere heart was stepped all over.

She took a sip of her juice and said, “From now on, I don’t think they’ll be returning to this restaurant again.”

“Are you still upset?” Yu Gangan asked.

“No,” Lin Jiayu’s lips did not curve upwards but there was a smile in her eyes. “I’ve decided to agree to the contract marriage with Lu Xuechen.”

“What?”

Yu Gangan froze, unsure of how to react.

How did she come to this decision all of a sudden? Did Li Nansheng and Zhang Yuzhi trigger her?

“Jiayu, why don’t you think about it a little longer?” Yu Gangan stopped her from being impulsive.

“Don’t worry, I wasn’t triggered by them. I simply asked you to accompany me because I wanted to confirm whether marrying Lu Xuechen would be something out of spite. But, I’m sure it isn’t now.”
