Chapter 981: Chapter 981: Fed Him a Candy Chapter 981: Chapter 981: Fed Him a Candy “No…” Li Shengxiao originally wanted to say it wasn’t necessary, but upon seeing Rong Yan’s resolute gaze, his heart softened instantly, “It’s in the second drawer of the study.”
Rong Yan turned her frown into a smile and immediately got up from the couch, “I’ll get it.”
She ran like the wind and swiftly returned from the study with a small medicine bottle, “Is it this one?”
The small white medicine bottle had no text on it, making it impossible to tell what kind of medicine it contained.
Rong Yan guessed that he was worried about someone seeing him occasionally taking medication, and discovering it was for numbing his nerves, so he specifically asked Cui Jiangjing to find a bottle that pletely concealed the medicine.
“Yes.” Li Shengxiao sat back down on the couch, his posture upright, his long legs crossed, as regally restrained as a noble from the Middle Ages, showing no signs of his current splitting headache.
Rong Yan, sure she hadn’t grabbed the wrong medicine, opened the bottle and poured out a pill for him, “Is one enough?”
“It’s enough.” He usually took two, but this time, the most painful episode had already passed. It didn’t make much difference whether he took it or not, but if she was worried, he could take one to reassure her.
“Alright.” Rong Yan handed him the medicine, then the glass of water from the table with a pained expression, “I originally made you honey water to warm your stomach when you came back, and now it’s turned into taking medicine. Sigh! Li Shengxiao, can’t you care a little more about your health? What will Duidui and I do in the future?”
At such a young age, he was constantly plagued with minor ailments, and when it came to work, he was relentless. Who knows what it’ll be like when he’s older.
With the way he’s tormenting himself, honestly, the phrase ‘Died young, ascended to immortality’ seems tailor-made for him.
“I’ll be more careful in the future.”
“You say that, but it’ll be the same next time.” Rong Yan plained but after the man tilted his head back and swallowed the medicine, she retrieved a plumb candy from somewhere and handed it over, “Here, have this too.”
“…” Li Shengxiao looked at the petite candy in the delicate palm held before him, somewhat taken aback.
Was she treating him like a three-year-old?
“Take it.” Rong Yan forcibly pulled his hand and stuffed the candy into his palm, “This was given to me by Little Baby, saying his grandma bought him candy in the afternoon. He allowed himself three pieces but hid one for you, wanting to make mom sweet.
Duidui’s exact words were: Mom, grandma bought me candy, and I’m allowed to eat three pieces, but I hid one away for you, wanting my mom to be sweet.
She had received that precious candy and had been too reluctant to eat it, carefully keeping it on her person, never expecting it would e in handy now.
Li Shengxiao’s beautiful lips curved slightly, his deep eagle eyes resting on her, as he handed the candy back to her, “Peel it for me.”
Rong Yan, “…”
She peeled off the candy wrapper in no time, somewhat uncertain, “You’re not going to ask me to feed you, are you?”
Peeling the candy was one thing, but if she had to feed him too, that really would be…
“There, it’s done. Now go take a bath.”
