As the shell drew near, a nauseating, strange smell assaulted Yu Wanwan's nostrils. She glanced at Lanyin with an ambiguous expression.
If it weren't for his concerned and worried expression, she would have suspected that Lan Yin was planning to poison her today.
"Wanwan, what's wrong? Drink up!" Lanyin urged her when she saw that she hadn't moved for a long time.
Yu Wanwan had no choice but to take the seashell from his hand, looking as if she were going to her death.
Okay, the sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn. The wound will only heal if you take the medicine!
She closed her eyes, mentally prepared herself, then picked up the seashell and gulped it down in one go.
The process was both short and long; it seemed to happen in an instant, yet it also felt like a very long time had passed.
She felt like she had fallen into a moldy kimchi jar and then been pickled in a stinking ditch. The first bowl she drank only made her stomach feel uncomfortable, but after this bowl, she felt like her whole body was soaking and filled with a bitter, foul smell. She felt like even the slightest spark could make her explode.
After Lan Yin saw that the little female had finished drinking his tonic soup, she remained there with an indescribable expression, motionless for a long time. He patted Yu Wanwan's face, leaned closer to her, and whispered, "Wanwan, Wanwan, what's wrong?"
He called for a long time before Yu Wanwan came to her senses. She turned her head and looked at Lan Yin's face, which was so close to hers, and two streams of hot tears flowed down her cheeks.
Lan Yin was startled and hurriedly wiped her face, comforting her, "Wanwan, what's wrong? Don't cry, don't scare me."
She squeezed her eyes shut, suppressing the bitterness in her heart. Yu Wanwan wiped her face before uttering three words in a hoarse voice: "Still bitter..."
This was the first time in her life that she had cried because the medicine was too bitter.
Lan Yin looked around and noticed the fruit placed to the side. She quickly picked it up and stuffed several into Yu Wanwan's mouth.
How are you feeling now?
Yu Wanwan swallowed the fruit in her mouth, barely managing to suppress the strange taste. She frowned and said, "This medicine is really too bitter."
The little female's expression was so adorable; Lan Yin felt both sorry for her and amused.
His hands were itching, so he pinched her soft cheeks before smiling and saying, "I'll prepare more fruit for you in the future, so you can eat it when you take your medicine."
Would you like some more?
"Yes, drink it three times a day. You won't need to drink it anymore once your injury heals."
Yu Wanwan's expression grew even more sorrowful; the mere thought of that strange smell of medicine sent shivers down her spine.
Lan Yin gathered up the seashells, while Yu Wanwan, rubbing her swollen belly from drinking, collapsed onto the bed.
After drinking that medicine, she couldn't eat anything else. Fortunately, Lan Yin didn't urge her to eat anything.
Yu Wanwan took another fruit and stuffed it into her mouth.
However, what she didn't know was that Lan Yin didn't urge her to eat because the strange medicinal soup she had just drunk was actually food.
From today onwards, Yu Wanwan has to take medicine every day, three times a day, two bowls each time, until her face turns green.
In Yu Wanwan's mind, she was treating medicine like food.
As for Lan Yin, Yu Wanwan had a bowl of medicine and a bowl of soup every day, and she always drank the soup in one gulp.
Lan Yin washed the seashells clean, revealing a shy smile.
She must really like the soup she makes, because she always wolfs it down and drinks it so fast.
As expected, the treatment method was correct. After resting for a while, Yu Wanwan's wound scabbed over. She excitedly showed the wound to Lan Yin: "Look, I'm all healed now, and I don't need to take medicine anymore."
Lan Yin nodded: "It seems like you're recovering quite quickly, but are you sure you don't need to take the medicine? After all, you're not fully recovered yet."
Yu Wanwan quickly said, "I'm sure, I'm sure. Have you ever heard the saying, 'Every medicine has some degree of toxicity,' and taking too much medicine is actually not good?"
Lan Yin hadn't made up his mind yet, and Yu Wanwan looked at him pitifully, her big round eyes full of pleading.
Lan Yin sighed. Sure enough, she couldn't resist and took the medicine off, but she still had to cook soup for her to drink every day.
Yu Wanwan looked at the strangely colored soup inside the seashell, and her expression turned bitter and resentful.
Didn't we agree that I wouldn't need to take the medicine once the injury healed? Why was the dosage reduced by half?
Lan Yin placed the fruit on the table and looked at her strangely: "Wanwan, what are you thinking about? Why aren't you drinking? You'll be healthy if you drink."
Looking at her wounds that hadn't fully healed, Yu Wanwan thought about how she had been at the bottom of the sea for so long without making any progress on her mission.
Okay, I'll drink it. I'll only get better after taking the medicine, and I can only think of ways to take action once I'm healthy!
She clenched her fist, then picked up the seashell and downed it in one gulp.
After finishing the drink, Yu Wanwan burped and felt a green odor rising from her throat.
Seeing that the soup she had carefully prepared was all gone, Lan Yin patted her head with satisfaction.
After drinking this for a while, Yu Wanwan became like a plant that had been poisoned in a TV drama, completely wilted.
When Lan Yin arrived, he saw the little female lying listlessly on the table. He jumped into the bubble and patted Yu Wanwan's head: "Wanwan, what's wrong?"
Yu Wanwan raised her head slightly, responded to him, and then went limp again: "I took medicine."
Yu Wanwan still doesn't know that what she thought was medicine was actually a nourishing soup carefully prepared by Lanyin.
Lan Yin was unaware of Yu Wanwan's misunderstanding and assumed she was joking.
After all, she's been off her medication for so long, how could she still be feeling unwell? The little female must be playing a joke on him.
