Chapter 180: Chapter 180: The Embarrassing Problem (4) Chapter 180: Chapter 180: The Embarrassing Problem (4) Lu Wanwan lay down for a while, then heard a knock at the door.
Upon opening, she saw Auntie Li standing at the entrance with a bowl of sothing she couldn’t identify.
Sniffing the fragrant dicinal scent, Wanwan asked curiously, “Auntie Li, what is this?”
Auntie Li said with a smile, “Miss Lu, didn’t you feel uncomfortable with your period? This dicine is very good, it was a prescription that the Second Miss had when she felt unwell in the past. It’s gentle and effective, and it doesn’t taste bad. It’s still a bit hot, so I’ll put it on the table for you.”
“Thanks a lot, Auntie Li, I really appreciate your trouble,” Lu Wanwan felt a warm-hearted touch.
She had always suffered from dysnorrhea, and a layer of sweat beads had ford on her forehead, with the pain intensifying.
“Miss Lu, this was the young master’s instructions,” Auntie Li reminded her, “I can’t take credit for this ‘thank you.’ If you wish to thank soone, it should be the young master. But I think you shouldn’t, it would be too formal. It’s only right for the young master to care about you.”
She was surprised for a mont, having thought that once her period started, Gu Annan would recently ignore her. She hadn’t expected such instructions from him.
Lu Wanwan held the bowl of herbal soup and took a gentle sip.
Although it had a bit of dicinal scent, the taste was surprisingly sweet. Despite her usual dislike for such herbal soups, she found it quite palatable.
“By the way,” Auntie Li ntioned casually, “Since Miss Lu also needs this, I plan to ask the doctor to prepare so more. Do you need any other dicine? You can tell , and I’ll get them for you.”
“dicine? No need,” she said while drinking the soup, shaking her head.
She thought Auntie Li referred to the slight bruise on her forehead, which was almost healed.
“I an… for example, have you and the young master prepared for, like, pregnancy planning…” Auntie Li said tentatively.
Lu Wanwan nearly spurted out the soup, coughing uncontrollably.
Pregnancy planning?
Pregnancy planning?!
“Miss Lu, take it slow,” Auntie Li was shocked, “Don’t rush. Ah, I was just asking, I haven’t finished yet, there are also dicines for nourishing the body, or other things…”
The words ‘pregnancy planning’ really startled her; while she was thinking about how to avoid pregnancy, Auntie Li was asking about preparing for it!
Let alone that she didn’t see this engagent as a long-term choice right now, Gu Annan surely wouldn’t be thinking about having children at this ti either.
“What’s going on?” A tall figure walked in through the doorway.
Gu Annan had just gone to the study to deal with so affairs, but his mind hadn’t been focused on the task.
Her pale face kept popping into his mind, and he wanted to see how she was doing now.
He had held back until now, but when he heard coughing from outside the door, he finally found a reasonable excuse to co in.
“Can’t even drink dicine properly?” He stood with one hand in his pocket, glancing at the more than half-full bowl of soup.
Her complexion was indeed poor, making Annan’s brows tighten slightly.
“It’s nothing, I just choked a bit,” Lu Wanwan said, wiping her mouth with a tissue, quickly explaining.
“It’s my fault for speaking out of turn, Miss Lu, please don’t take it to heart.
On his handso and aloof face, his eyes narrowed, his gaze sharp, “Auntie Li, what did you say?”
“Auntie Li didn’t say anything, I was just careless. Auntie Li, you can go rest now,” Lu Wanwan interjected quickly.
“Then I’ll go downstairs first, Miss Lu. If you need anything, just let know,” Auntie Li dared not ntion this topic in front of the young master.
No sooner had Auntie Li left than Lu Wanwan, holding the bowl, felt his towering presence approach once again.
Gu Annan propped himself against the table with one hand, leaning slightly forward to her, his cool voice drifting into her ear, “I’ll give you one last chance, what happened just now?”
