Tao Wenwen needs acupuncture and medicinal herbs.
She had seen Zhang Ertian's illness and had an idea of it. Some kinds of medicinal herbs could not be found in the mountains, so they could only be bought in pharmacies.
Shi Wangting was thinking about his book, so he left the house and took Tao Wenwen directly to the pharmacy near the bookstore.
Unexpectedly, Tao Wenwen came out shortly after he went in and asked him, "Are there any other Chinese medicine stores nearby?"
Shi Wangting stood outside the glass frame of the bookstore.
The book he wanted was right in the window. It was right in front of him, but he couldn't touch it or buy it.
Shi Wangting looked back at the books in the window every few steps as if he had lost his lover, but he still chose to take Tao Wenwen to find a pharmacy first.
Tao Wenwen then turned around to take a look at the book, said nothing more, and turned around to continue shopping in the shop.
The two of them strolled around for the whole morning.
It had been a long time since Shi Wangting had walked as much as he did today. By the end of the walk, his feet were almost turned inward and he couldn't walk anymore.
There happened to be a public bench on the side of the street for rest, so Shi Wangting slumped down on it and begged for mercy, "I can't do this anymore. My legs will disappear if I keep walking. Is this how you women can go shopping? It's really scary. I give in."
"It's so hard to make a few dollars from you." Shi Wangting stuffed the five dollars in his pocket into Tao Wenwen's hand, "Take it all. I won't make any more money, and I won't buy any books. Go shopping on your own. I'll wait here for you. When you're done shopping, just come back the same way you came."
Tao Wenwen wanted to say that she didn't know the way.
But seeing that Shi Wangting was only half dead, she silently swallowed her words.
There happened to be a man selling popsicles on the roadside. Tao Wenwen ran over and bought two, handed one to Shi Wangting, and then stuffed the five yuan back into his hand.
"I have money." Tao Wenwen said, "Keep your money. I'm leaving."
Shi Wangting looked at the popsicle with a complicated expression. They had quarreled over a popsicle yesterday, but today she paid for him to eat the popsicle out of her own pocket.
He knows he's tired, and he's not a little scoundrel without a conscience.
In just this moment of distraction, when Shi Wangting raised his head again, Tao Wenwen's figure had already walked away.
Forget it. He had promised Shi Mohuai and Shi Zengyue to take good care of her. He was a man of his word. Since she wanted to go shopping, he would accompany her to have a good time!
Shi Wangting took a bite of the popsicle, listened to the crisp crunching sound in his mouth, and instantly felt full of strength.
But just as he was about to catch up with Tao Wenwen, four men suddenly jumped out and surrounded Tao Wenwen.
"Little sister, why are you alone?"
"Little sister, where are you going? Are you lost? Tell us and we will definitely take you to where you want to go."
Tao Wenwen ate her popsicle and looked at them indifferently.
The four men looked at Tao Wenwen with her red lips and white teeth eating a popsicle. Just this one action was enough to make them lose their souls.
"Where do you live, little sister? You haven't had lunch yet, right? How about we treat you to a meal?"
"Yes, we will treat you to whatever you want to eat."
"If you're willing to go home with us for dinner, we'll make sure you have the most delicious meal in the world!"
When Shi Wangting approached them, he heard these shameless men calling her "little sister" one by one.
He was immediately furious when he heard this, and the popsicle in his hand, which had originally tasted delicious, suddenly lost its flavor.
He took a big bite of the popsicle to vent his anger, making a crunching sound. He took two steps forward and kicked the man closest to Tao Wenwen without saying a word.
Shi Wangting used all his strength in this kick, showing no mercy at all.
