Chapter 268 What are you worried about?
It's time for dinner.
The inn they were staying in today was essentially booked. A group of people were having a meal in the lobby. The delicious smell filled the air. There was chicken, duck, fish, meat, and rich soups, which almost made Su Shaodong cry with envy.
With a face full of resentment, he looked at the expressionless Lu Jiangnian opposite him, took a vicious bite of the tough sesame cake, and chewed it hard, making a "crunch" sound. The muscles around his cheeks were tightly tensed, and it didn't look like he was eating, but like he was gnawing on the bones of his enemy.
Not only Lu Jiangnian but also Yuan Wanru sat at this table.
The table was filled with sumptuous meals. The two men beside her could only nibble on the sesame cakes pitifully. She was not affected at all and ate with relish, enjoying herself very much.
Su Shaodong watched her pick up a piece of roast goose, swallowed his saliva, and his stomach growled.
Hungry.
He is a grown man, but he only ate one pancake for lunch. How could that be enough to fill him up?
"My little beauty, I know I was wrong. Even if he bullies me in the future, I will not resist."
"I really know I was wrong. Look, these dishes..."
He had a look of desire, and there were only two words in his eyes: I want to eat.
Yuan Wanru glanced at Lu Jiangnian beside her. He was quiet and said nothing.
His hands were empty, and it was obvious that the sesame cake had already gone into his stomach. He had a calm face and seemed not to be tempted by the delicious food at all.
Seeing Yuan Wanru's gaze, he said calmly: "If you are wrong, you must admit your punishment. This punishment is not severe at all. At least you can still eat sesame cakes."
"If you can't even endure this little hardship, you're not really a man at all."
Food is the primary need of the people. Not being able to eat well is a big deal. Why is he pretending?
Su Shaodong was so angry that he stiffened his neck and glared at him: "If you don't want to eat, shut up. I'm talking to the little beauty. What does it have to do with you?"
He turned his gaze and looked at Yuan Wanru weakly: "You know, I don't have many hobbies. I'm really hungry. Please have pity on me."
Yuan Wanru was amused by his expression, "Do you really know you're wrong?"
Su Shaodong nodded sincerely, "Really, from now on I will let him bully me, and I won't fight back if he hits me or scolds me."
The veins on Lu Jiangnian's forehead twitched. He was pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy. He really had no bottom line.
It takes a really thick skin for a grown man to make such a vulnerable expression.
Yuan Wanru was full. She chuckled and said, "It's not that serious. I'm just annoyed by your noise. I'm just giving you a small punishment to make a big impression on you."
"I'll make it clear in advance that I'm just not giving you food this time. If there's a next time, I'll make you shut up for five days."
After saying that, she turned her head to look at Lu Jiangnian: "What do you think?"
Lu Jiangnian said, "As long as he behaves himself, I won't bother with him at all."
After listening to this, Su Shaodong snorted, "You have to understand clearly that I have never taken the initiative to talk to you. What does it have to do with you if I talk to the little beauty?"
Lu Jiangnian looked at him dangerously: "She is my woman, do you think it has nothing to do with me?"
Seeing that the two of them started bickering again, Yuan Wanru simply couldn't bear to watch it.
"It seems that you all want to experience what it feels like to be mute for a few days."
She sneered repeatedly, and Lu Jiangnian and Su Shaodong immediately shut up, their scalps tingling because her smile at this moment was so scary.
"No, I'm very good. From now on, Lu Jiangnian is my good brother. I will give him all the delicious food."
Su Shaodong showed a flattering smile and had an obedient expression, just like a good student, sitting upright.
Yuan Wanru nodded, then asked Lu Jiangnian: "What about you?"
Facing her threats, what else can Lu Jiangnian do?
Although he didn't think he was afraid of her, he had an intuition telling him not to make her really angry.
I always feel that once she gets angry, it will be difficult to coax her.
"Well, I won't take the initiative to cause trouble for him."
That's fine; she doesn't ask them to love each other anyway.
She stood up and said to Su Shaodong, "Okay, it's time for me to give Tang Tai acupuncture. Come with me."
"What about the food?"
Su Shaodong's eyes were fixed on the dining table, drooling and unable to move.
Yuan Wanru smiled innocently: "I won't take back what I said easily. If I say I can only eat sesame cakes tonight, then I can only eat sesame cakes."
miserable!
What else could Su Shaodong do? He hung his head and followed Yuan Wanru to Tang Tai's room. As a result, the man named Lu also followed them.
He rolled his eyes and whispered to Yuan Wanru, "Well, Lu Jiangnian should not come. You know that Tang Tai doesn't like to meet strangers."
This is not a lie.
Yuan Wanru always respects the patients' ideas. It would be useless for Lu Jiangnian to go there, as it would only increase the crowding of the room.
"Well, just do your thing and don't follow me."
Lu Jiangnian frowned: "I have something to tell you, I won't disturb you."
She still waved her hand to refuse: "We can talk about it tomorrow. If you can't wait, just wait until I finish the injection."
So, Lu Jiangnian could only watch Su Shaodong and Yuan Wanru enter a room.
When the door closed, Su Shaodong deliberately gave him a provocative look.
Lu Jiangnian just felt that his fist had become harder again.
accurate.
-
When Yuan Wanru returned to the room, Lu Jiangnian was waiting for her quietly in the room.
"You're back?"
Lu Jiangnian's tone did not reveal his joy or anger, and Yuan Wanru did not care. Instead, she sat down and drank a cup of tea.
"What happened?"
Seeing that her lips were a little dry, Lu Jiangnian patiently said nothing and poured her another cup of tea: "Moisten your lips first."
Giving Tang Tai an injection every time is not an easy job.
The main reason is that he has been suffering from the Gu for too many years, and it is extremely difficult to treat.
However, she was also inspired by it, so even though she was tired, she enjoyed it.
"Go ahead."
After Yuan Wanru replenished enough water, she sat upright and looked at the person opposite her.
She was wearing a blue jacket today. Her face was flushed due to being busy. The tea she had just drunk moistened her lips. She stared at him with her beautiful almond-shaped eyes, which made his anger dissipate a little.
The tone of his voice softened a bit.
"I think that Mr. Su has bad intentions. Apart from treating Tang Tai, you shouldn't have too much contact with him."
Yuan Wanru didn't expect that this was the issue he wanted to talk about.
"We have discussed this issue before, and I don't think there is any need to discuss it again."
She sighed.
Su Shaodong just likes to talk nonsense, but she feels that he doesn't really like her.
Besides, she had never given Su Shaodong any illusion.
Lu Jiangnian's voice was a little cold: "I don't like you to have too much contact with him, can't you consider my feelings?"
Yuan Wanru was silent for a while. "Su Shaodong and I were partners before, and we are even more partners now. Why don't we get in touch?"
"When I cooperated with Su Shaodong, you didn't object."
"Now, we want to find the Phoenix Jade Fruit. With the help of Father Su, we have obtained some clues. We can't just cross the river and burn the bridge."
"The most important thing is that Tang Tai is already my patient. Now that I have taken over, there is no way I will give up on him halfway."
She stared at Lu Jiangnian with burning eyes: "I can tell you clearly that I don't like Su Shaodong. What are you worried about?"
