The Sweetest Medicine

Yu Gangan subconsciously swallowed as her body fell weak and her heart tingled like it had been struck by lightning…

She looked vaguely at the man in front of her.

Her usually pure and clear judgment was suddenly complicated by emotions that touched her heart.

Fang Zhihan lowered his forehead, gently tilted his head and brushed his nose against hers.

An unexplainable ambiguity exploded in the air.

The atmosphere was enchanting.

Faintly intoxicating.

Fang Zhihan looked into Yu Gangan’s eyes and slowly lowered his gaze onto her delicate lips.

Yu Gangan’s gaze also fell upon his lips.

Fang Zhihan slowly moved. It seemed, he wanted to kiss her. Yu Gangan’s eyes unexpectedly fell weak. After a few blinks, they slowly closed.

But, out of nowhere, the sound of a ringtone suddenly resounded from the bedroom.

Fang Zhihan’s mesmerizing actions stopped as he tilted his head and breathed deeply beside Yu Gangan’s ear.

Yu Gangan also snapped out of her daze.

The expected kiss did not happen. But, apart from being surprised, she was shocked that she actually anticipated Fang Zhihan’s kiss.

Yu Gangan was frightened.

She immediately pushed Fang Zhihan away, jumped off his lap and ran out.

The ringtone was coming from her phone, and her phone was sitting on top of Fang Zhihan’s headboard.

Yu Gangan walked over and grabbed the phone.

It was a phone call from Zhang Sa. As soon as she picked it up, the woman asked, “Xiao Yu, are you free right now?”

Yu Gangan could hear the anxiety in the woman’s voice. Putting her messy situation aside, she asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”

“My uncle’s sick. After a consultation at my hospital, the doctor suggested he go see a psychiatrist. But, he was fine before. If you are free, can you come and take a look at him now?” Zhang Sa replied.

Yu Gangan called Zhang Sa her senior, but Zhang Sa was well aware that her skills did not compare to Yu Gangan.

Back when she was learning Chinese medicine from Grandfather He, Yu Gangan simply called her senior out of politeness and respect because she was older than her. But, she didn’t actually have that many classes with Grandfather He. A lot of the time, Yu Gangan was there to instruct her on behalf of her grandfather.

So, now that the hospital planned to send her uncle to a psychiatrist, the first person she thought of was Yu Gangan.

She hoped that Yu Gangan could approach the illness from the perspective of Chinese medicine and treat it.

“Calm down. I’m free this morning, so I’ll be there soon. Send his address to my phone,” Yu Gangan comforted.

“OK.”

After she hung up the phone, Yu Gangan turned around and saw Fang Zhihan.

He was leaning lazily against a closet in deep thought.

Yu Gangan remembered what happened earlier and suddenly felt shy and flustered. Her arms and legs froze as she wondered where to place them and stared blankly at the man.

Fang Zhihan’s lips curved slightly, “What’s wrong?”

“My Senior’s uncle is sick. The hospital diagnosed it as a mental illness. I need to go take a look at him,” Yu Gangan replied.

“OK, after breakfast I’ll drive you there.”

Fang Zhihan opened his closet to grab a change of clothes as Yu Gangan stepped out into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

She ended up cooking two bowls of noodles. Just as she was serving them, Fang Zhihan finished his shower and stepped out in a fresh set of clothes.

After eating, the couple stopped by Yu Gangan’s dormitory first because her medicine chest was there.
