Chu Wuyou exited the pharmacy not long after. She was moving along quickly and seemed to be holding some sort of medicine in her hand. The type of medicine was indistinguishable to the eyes due to the distance.
“President, it seems like my guess was right. Madam left to buy you some medicine.” A hint of excitement washed over Secretary Liu’s face.
The corners of Ye Lanchen’s lips curled into a sardonic smile because he dared not allow himself to believe that.
The higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
Chu Wuyou dashed into the car and delivered the medicine to Ye Lanchen before getting into her seat properly.
After readjusting herself, she then handed him a bottle of water.
Stunned, Ye Lanchen’s eyes shifted from the medicine to Chu Wuyou. He simply went in a trance for several seconds.
There were not a lot of women that appeared in his life hence he had not been treated with such genuine consideration. Of course, it was he who refused those women a chance to do so.
He frowned upon those false displays of affection.
However, he knew Chu Wuyou was not one of those women because there was nothing she could possibly benefit from him. This woman’s disdain for him was evident. There was nothing she wished more than to shake him off and return to Country M.
Back then, it was he who caught her in the middle of escaping to Country M.
Anyway, how did she know about his gastritis if he had not mentioned it to her before?
Oh, right. She was an exceedingly observant person.
Be that as it may, did it not concern her that this thoughtful action might expose her true colors?!
“What’s wrong? You’re not going to take it? Did I buy the wrong medicine?” Chu Wuyou felt uncomfortable under his intense gaze.
“How do you know about my gastritis?” Ye Lanchen who normally cherished words like gold could not resist from enquiring.
Startled, Chu Wuyou averted her gaze. She noticed his gastric pain purely because of her sharp-eyed nature and immediately went to buy the medicine without being asked. Had she lost her mind? She just exposed herself!
Secretary Liu broke the silence because he thought Chu Wuyou did not answer out of embarrassment. “Madam truly cares about you, President, which was why she realized your discomfort without you bringing it up.”
“Weren’t you pressing on your upper abdomen earlier? Then it must be gastric pain and can’t have been liver pain, lung pain, or intestinal pain. Otherwise, you must be seriously ill.” Chu Wuyou was overcome with frustration and she felt like banging her head into a wall at this moment. She reckoned she must have made this stupid mistake out of habit because she had been taking care of her two darlings.
Her words caught Secretary Liu by absolute surprise. Would another woman say something like this under these circumstances? Why did it sound like she was cursing the President?
On the other hand, Ye Lanchen curled his lips upward into a slight smile instead of being annoyed. He suddenly realized this woman’s sharp tongue was actually nurtured by good intentions.
Besides, seeing her trying hard to explain herself pleased him even more. Did it mean that she was so concerned about his condition that she forgot her pretense?!
“The medicine is too bitter.” Brows slightly knitted, Ye Lanchen received the medicine with an enigmatic smile.
Chu Wuyou’s lips twitched. He was simply unreasonable; how could an adult like him complain about the medicine being too bitter?
All of a sudden, Ye Lanchen leaned toward her and whispered into her ears, “Feed me.”
Chu Wuyou widened her eyes in shock and glared at him in disbelief. Wait, what? What did he just say?
Did he ask her to feed him? It was only a pill, after all. What did he want her to do? Feed him with her mouth?
