Chapter 13: Delivering Medicine



Ding Mao made the matter a big deal and a small matter. After the matter was made a small matter, the people at the educated youth site had a meal together.

This meal was unusually sumptuous, with a combination of meat and vegetables, and coupled with Gao Zhongbin's superb cooking skills, everyone enjoyed the meal happily.

That’s right, the chef at the educated youth center was actually a grown man.

Su Nan heard from Liu Yu that Liu Yu heard from others that Gao Zhongbin's mother ran a restaurant business before the founding of New China, but was later forced to close down, so she joined a state-owned restaurant and became a chef.

So Gao Zhongbin grew up in the kitchen and learned cooking skills. He was supposed to inherit the family business and become the head chef in a state-owned restaurant.

But who would have thought that a guy named Xiao Yaojin would appear halfway and snatch Gao Zhongbin's place, so he was forced to go to the countryside to work as an educated youth.

Life is so unpredictable, you can never guess what will happen next.

Su Nan came out of the kitchen, touching her slightly bulging belly, and burped contentedly. After that, she felt a little uncomfortable. She looked around and saw that no one was around, so she covered her mouth and smiled foolishly.

I walked towards the dormitory humming a song.

Zhou Rang, who was standing in a corner not far away, was holding a box of ointment in his hand. He took everything in. Ripples appeared in his usually calm eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

He rubbed the surface of the iron box with his slender fingers twice, fearing that if he called her now, she would get angry and embarrassed, so he decided to give her the ointment later.

Thinking of this, I turned around and went back to the dormitory.

The long journey and hard work made people tired. After dinner, everyone simply washed up and climbed into bed to rest. Soon, snoring sounds could be heard in the dormitory.

Su Nan lay on the bed, his eyes clear and his spirit alert, but he couldn't fall asleep.

Did I apply too much fairy spring water when I was pretending to cry just now?

I couldn't help but turn over again, and the quilt made a small noise due to friction.

Hearing the continuous noise, Liu Yu in the next bed frowned and uttered a dissatisfied groan.

Forget it, she decided to stay outside so as not to disturb others' rest. By the way, she wanted to see if she could run into Zhou Rang who got up to go to the bathroom and give him the ointment.

You can't fail to do what you promised to others.

Thinking of this, Su Nan took out a small iron box from the small drawer at the head of the bed, and then climbed down from the bed quietly.

When he walked to the door, he saw Qin Xiaolan drooling with her mouth wide open, wetting a large area of the pillow. Tsk, Su Nan shook his head in disgust, opened the door and walked out.

As soon as she walked out of the door, a strong wind blew up her already messy long hair. Su Nan made a "pooh" sound and spat out the hair that was in her mouth.

It was still completely dark, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on my body, bringing a warm and comfortable feeling. It was summer, and the air was filled with the fragrance of hibiscus flowers.

Su Nan had sharp eyes and quickly found a small patch of hibiscus bushes in the southeast corner of the yard. The pale pink buds looked very attractive.

She squatted down, picked up a fallen flower on the ground, and put it to her ear, her eyebrows curved.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind him, and Su Nan subconsciously turned his head to look.

The tall figure blocked some of the light, and she couldn't help but squint to see the person clearly.

"It's you, Zhou Rang." Su Nan stood up, eyes full of surprise.

For some reason, Zhou Rang didn't dare to meet her gaze. His face showed a hint of unnaturalness. He turned slightly and his eyes fell on the hibiscus flower beside her ear.

"Do you want to see?" Noticing his gaze, Su Nan raised her hand and touched the petals, raised her eyebrows confidently, and showed off her beauty without any shyness.

Hearing this, Zhou Rang blurted out, "Let's see."

As he finished speaking, his ears gradually turned red. He lowered his eyelids, restrained his hot breath, and was secretly annoyed by what he had just said.

Su Nan was stunned, and then her face turned red. It was the first time that she felt a little embarrassed when facing other people's praise.

Somehow, my mind suddenly jumped and I said, "Hahaha, young man, you really have good vision. You will know in the future that investing in my sister will definitely not be a loss."

What the hell is this? Are you stupid?

Su Nan pursed her lips, trying to ignore the heat on her face. She slapped her forehead. What would it feel like to die on the spot? Where was a hole in the ground for her to crawl into?

"Well, hahaha, what I'm saying is, why are you wandering around instead of sleeping?" Su Nan smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.

After saying that, I wanted to slap myself to death. Why is my mouth so mean? How can a handsome guy going out for a walk be called "strolling around"?

Forget it, just shut up.

Su Nan blushed with shame, her eyes avoided, she raised her hand stiffly, pretended to scratch her hair with one finger, and lowered her head.

Zhou Rang looked at the top of her head with a smile, but after seeing the scratches on her arm, the smile disappeared completely and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

He reached into his pocket and touched the small iron box. After taking a deep breath, he made up his mind, took it out decisively and placed it in front of Su Nan.

"Use this on the wound on your hand. Apply it on time every day. It won't hurt and won't leave scars."

Zhou Rang's face was as calm as the surface of a lake, and there was no sign of his inner nervousness or anxiety. Although his voice was not loud, his pronunciation was clear, and every word he said touched people's hearts.

Su Nan raised his head and his eyes fell on the box of ointment, but he did not reach out to take it. Instead, he looked into Zhou Rang's eyes silently.

Just when he thought he was behaving like a clown, the girl in front of him suddenly smiled and stretched out her hand to place it next to his big palm.

"Isn't this the same style?"

As her voice rang out, the white fist slowly opened, revealing the small iron box inside.

The tense thread in Zhou Rang's heart suddenly broke, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When he came to his senses, he found that her hands were tightly pressed against his hands, one black and one white, extremely dazzling.

"Yeah." He withdrew his hand unnoticeably, hid it behind his back and rubbed his palm uncomfortably.

"I said I would send you the medicine, and I will definitely do so. I, Su Nan, am not a person who goes back on my word." Su Nan pulled Zhou Rang's empty hand and stuffed the ointment into his palm.

Noticing his small movements to return the favor, Su Nan took a step back, pretending to be fierce, pointed his index finger at the tip of his nose, and warned: "Hey, what are you doing?"

"I have my own medicine, so I don't need yours. You have a wound on your hand too." Zhou Rang felt the iron box in his left hand was hot. It was not right to take it, nor was it right not to take it. He felt irritable and anxious.

Unexpectedly, when Su Nan heard what he said, a hint of pride appeared on his face. He stood on tiptoe and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, he grabbed Zhou Rang's sleeve and walked behind the hibiscus bushes.

Zhou Rang, who didn't understand what was going on, could only follow her. Looking at the piece of cloth she was holding, his heart beat faster and faster uncontrollably. Thousands of thoughts kept churning in his mind, and his face turned red in an instant.

The two of them squatted behind the flowers. Su Nan stretched out his white arm, coughed lightly, and began to wipe it with his other hand. In a few seconds, the arm turned bright red and the scars disappeared.

Zhou Rang was stunned and his expression changed slightly.
