Chapter 181 Report
Gu Yan smiled bitterly in his heart, but still continued the conversation, "Well, I won't take it. I came here just to deliver the medicine. I have already told your family the precautions. It's time for me to leave."
He opened his handbag and took out a small white plastic bag containing packets of prepared oral medicine. "Many of these are imported medicines, so the price is a little higher. The total is 78 yuan. Here is the receipt."
He acted in a businesslike manner and easily resolved the awkwardness.
"Okay, wait a moment." Chu Mingzhou got up to get the money.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go cook." Chu Minglan also turned and went to the kitchen.
There was a moment of silence in the hall.
Lin Anan lowered her head slightly, avoiding Gu Yan's gaze, her fingers unconsciously tugging at the corner of her clothes.
She knew in her heart that her reaction just now was a bit extreme, but Gu Yan's appearance still made her lose her composure.
Everything in front of her was something she had worked hard to obtain.
Reborn in this strange world, she experienced a beauty she had never experienced in two lifetimes, and she didn't want any mistakes or accidents.
Gu Yan looked at Lin An'an, sighed in his heart, but remained calm on his face, "You don't have to be afraid, I won't do anything to you."
Lin Anan's eyes were sore and she didn't dare to say anything harsh, for fear of angering others.
"Thanks."
Chu Mingzhou withdrew the money very quickly, and when he returned to the main hall, he just heard the conversation between Gu Yan and Lin Anan.
"Take this medicine as directed by the doctor, three times a day, one pack each time, and don't miss a dose. If you feel any discomfort during medication, feel free to contact me."
"I see, Dr. Gu, thank you so much."
"I have already told your lover about some matters, please cooperate."
"OK."
Chu Mingzhou handed the money to Gu Yan, "Doctor Gu, thank you for your help."
Gu Yan took the money and put it in his bag without counting it. "It's my duty. Besides, the equipment cannot be mobilized so quickly. Her medicine cannot be delayed. I'll leave first. I'll notify you of the follow-up treatment arrangements."
After saying that, he stood up, nodded slightly to the two of them, and turned to walk towards the door.
Lin Anan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and only when Gu Yan's figure disappeared at the door did she completely relax.
Chu Mingzhou sent the person away and did not go into the kitchen. Instead, he returned and sat down next to Lin Anan.
He raised his hand and gently covered her hand, looking at her quietly.
Chu Mingzhou is a special warfare veteran, and his observation of details is far better than that of ordinary people.
It's like her clenched fists, her pretended calm look, and her subconscious avoidance to hide.
"An An, do you have anything to say to me?"
"ah?"
Lin Anan's heart was about to jump out of her throat. She looked up at him with her eyes flashing, "What?"
Chu Mingzhou looked at her deeply and tightened his grip, "It's okay, I'll go cook."
Seeing that she didn't want to talk, Chu Mingzhou didn't ask any more questions and prepared to get up.
Lin Anan hesitated for only a moment, then pulled the man back and said, "Mingzhou, I have something to report to you."
"Report?"
The solemn look on Chu Mingzhou's face was broken by her. Seeing her nervous and cautious look, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He sat back down and said, "Then you have to write this report carefully."
Lin Anan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, organized her words, and thought about how to say it so that it would be clear and would not cause misunderstanding.
"Actually, Dr. Gu and I knew each other before. He is half my senior. I didn't mention it to you before because I didn't think of this person at all. I'm not very familiar with him. I was a little nervous when I first saw him, and I was afraid that you would misunderstand." She raised her eyes as she spoke, carefully observing Chu Mingzhou's expression.
"When I was seventeen, I went to Shanghai for treatment, so I studied at Jingye Middle School. Gu Yan was a good person. He helped me when I was bullied..."
Lin Anan slightly changed the story of how the original owner and Gu Yan met, omitting the ambiguous parts and making the rest almost candid.
It’s not that she is honest, it’s that she doesn’t want to lie to Chu Mingzhou.
A lie needs to be covered up with many lies, and it cannot be hidden in front of Chu Mingzhou.
Chu Mingzhou was slightly stunned. He expected that the two might have an old acquaintance, but he didn't expect Lin Anan to explain it in such detail. The haze of doubt in his heart instantly dissipated.
He gently squeezed Lin Anan's hand and said, "Silly girl, what's there to misunderstand about me? Since we are old classmates, you should invite us to dinner."
"Men and women are different. We must know how to avoid suspicion."
Chu Mingzhou was pleased with her, and the corners of his lips raised a nice arc, "Okay."
Lin Anan raised her chin with an exaggerated expression, "Chu Mingzhou, remember this, in my eyes, you are the best. Any other gay man is just like passing clouds and smoke, and I never take him seriously."
She emphasized the three words "Lin Anan" and then reached out for a hug.
Chu Mingzhou smiled and hugged her in his arms. He rested his chin on the top of her head, rubbed it, and hummed softly.
"I, Lin Anan, like you the most, and only you."
"Me too."
"Give me a kiss then."
Lin Anan raised her head, leaned forward, and kissed him hard on his thin lips.
Chu Mingzhou liked her cute and naughty look the most. The smile on his face deepened. He hugged her tightly and was reluctant to let go.
After a while, Lin Anan struggled out of his arms, her cheeks slightly red, "I'm hungry."
Chu Mingzhou scratched her nose and said, "I'll do it."
"Okay~"
Chu Mingzhou stood up and went into the kitchen.
After a while, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen.
Chu Mingyu went to play next door, while Chu Mingzhou and Chu Minglan were busy in the kitchen. When they saw that the dishes were almost ready, Lin Anan got up and went next door to call for help.
"Uncle Zhang, is my Xiaoyu with you?"
This Zhang Bo had received couplets at home years ago. He often met Lin Anan and was very polite. He was also a veteran.
Uncle Zhang's family is simple. He and his wife are the only ones at home all year round. He also has a little grandson who is about the same age as Chu Mingyu, and they are classmates.
"Is Mingzhou's wife here? Brother Yu is in the room, come in quickly, your aunt is frying peanuts, take some back for Mingzhou to eat with his wine."
Lin Anan went to call someone, and was forced to eat a large plate of garlic peanuts.
"Sister-in-law!" Chu Mingyu jumped out, followed by a tall and thin little boy.
The little boy stole a glance at Lin Anan, very shy. Seeing Lin Anan looking at him, he also whispered, "Sister-in-law."
"This is Fu Ge'er, my good brother." Chu Mingyu introduced.
Lin Anan found it interesting and greeted him as well. He came empty-handed and had nothing to give him. "Hello, Brother Fu. Come to my house when you are free. Sister-in-law will bring you some candy."
Fu Ge'er's face suddenly turned red to his ears. He pursed his lips awkwardly and said in a low voice: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Lin Anan smiled and patted Chu Mingyu's head, "Xiaoyu, when you've finished playing with Brother Fu, go home for dinner. Your brother is almost done."
Chu Mingyu responded, took Lin Anan’s hand, and waved goodbye to everyone.
When they returned home, the meal was already on the table.
In the middle was a dish of yam and pork ribs soup, with rich broth and soft and glutinous yam, which particularly caught Lin Anan's eye.
Seeing that she was greedy, Chu Mingzhou immediately poured her a bowl.
"Thank you Mingzhou."
Everyone picked up their chopsticks and ate with great relish.
