Chapter 303: Nan Yan Delivers a Love Meal
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat
Nan Yan looked at the disjointed words sent by Bai Chen, tugged at the corner of her lips, and replied leisurely: [Yes, after all these years without seeing each other, missing you is only natural.]
Bai Chen: [I can’t believe you’re talking like that.]
If she really missed them, she wouldn’t have disappeared without a word for so many years.
She even forbade them from looking for her.
If it weren’t for Li Yuan repeatedly saying that she wouldn’t really abandon them, he might have gone to find her whereabouts a long time ago. Nan Yan: [In this day and age, no one believes in honesty, sigh-]
Bai Chen: [Hmph.]
The conversation between the two ended with Bai Chen’s single word ‘hmph.’
Just then, Qin Shiyu came to find her, so Nan Yan exited the chat page and casually closed her laptop.
“Yanyan, I heard from Grandma that you’re a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner!”
Qin Shiyu’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Nan Yan.
“Yes,” Nan Yan nodded. “I’ve learned some medical skills from an old man.
Qin Shiyu immediately extended her wrist in front of Nan Yan. “Can you check my pulse and see if there’s anything wrong with my body?”
Nan Yan looked at her with an eager smile and had no choice but to help her check her pulse.
“How is it? Is my body healthy?”
Seeing Nan Yan’s somewhat serious expression, Qin Shiyu’s nerves tightened.
“Cold uterus syndrome, severe menstrual pain, heavy flow, mild anemia, low blood sugar…” Qin Shiyu:
Oh my God.
Is Yanyan really this amazing?
Every single thing she mentioned is exactly what’s wrong with her!
In reality, she turns into a wilted cabbage during certain specific times.
The rest of the time, she’s perfectly healthy and robust.
Even when she went to the hospital for an examination, they attributed it to her innate constitution and advised her to be cautious, avoid consuming cold foods and touching cold water.
The doctors said there was no cure for her condition, only self-care, drinking hot water during her period to keep her abdomen warm.
So, every month during those few days, she would spend her time in bed, hugging a warm water bottle and applying heating pads…
“Nan Yan, can you treat it!”
Qin Shiyu asked quite cautiously, even preparing herself for how to react if Nan Yan said she couldn’t treat it.
But the result…
“Of course, it can be treated.” Nan Yan took out her phone, typed a series of Chinese herbal names and quantities, and sent them to Qin Shiyu. “Follow this prescription to get the herbs and drink them for a month. It should help improve your symptoms.”
Qin Shiyu: .
Qin Shiyu looked somewhat dazed at the long list of herbal names that took up a whole page. Then, she asked with a bitter expression, “Yanyan, isn’t Chinese medicine very bitter?”
“I’ve seen it on TV dramas, and they show that Chinese medicine is dark brown, even more bitter than bitter melon. I might…” She couldn’t bear the taste!
“Afraid of the bitterness?”
“Yeah, yeah!” Qin Shiyu nodded vigorously, indicating just how much she disliked bitter flavors.
Nan Yan replied calmly, “Then wait a few more days. I’ll make herbal pills for you, and when taken with warm water, it won’t taste bitter.”
“Okay, thank you, Yanyan!”
Qin Shiyu immediately beamed with a smile and affectionately hooked Nan Yan’s arm. “Yanyan, I’ve accepted you as my sister-in-law. Anyone who dares to approach you, I’ll deal with them!”
Nan Yan: .
She seemed to have jumped the gun by calling her sister-in-law so early in the game.
As someone who was two years older than Nan Yan, Qin Shiyu didn’t feel the slightest bit embarrassed. After all, in the future, she would definitely be calling her sister-in-law since she was dating her big brother. Besides, Nan Yan appeared so mature, nothing like an eighteen-year-old girl, and her aura was strong and impressive.
As they spent more time together during this period, Qin Shiyu inexplicably felt like she was dealing with her big brother when facing Nan Yan…
Old Madam Qin and Nanny Li were in the living room, sipping their beauty-enhancing tea and watching TV.
When they saw Nan Yan coming down, they cheerfully beckoned her to join them.
Nan Yan sat down next to Old Madam Qin and said, “Nanny Li, please prepare an extra portion for dinner tonight and let the kitchen know. My brother wants to have a home-cooked meal, and I’ll bring it to him.”
Nanny Li’s face lit up with a smile, and she eagerly replied, “Alright, I’ll go inform the kitchen right away.”
Old Madam Qin placed Nan Yan’s hand in her own palm and spoke with kindness in her eyes. “In another year, Yanyan, once you get admitted to the university in the capital, would you like to come and live with us?”
“Yes.”
She had heard Old Madam Qin mention this matter several times. To consider the elderly woman’s feelings, she hadn’t refused outright.
And besides, there’s still a year’s time left, so things may change by then.
When Old Madam Qin heard Nan Yan’s agreement, she couldn’t stop smiling.
Before they knew it, it was time for dinner.
Nan Yan didn’t eat at home; instead, she packed two portions of dinner and brought them to the company to have dinner with Qin Lu. After all, if she went over to watch him eat, she’d rather just eat together with him, thinking about that scenario.
Qin Corporation Office Building.
Nan Yan carried the lunchbox, got out of the car, and then sent a message to Qin Lu, letting him know that she had arrived.
In the meeting room, Qin Lu noticed the lit-up screen of his phone on the table and saw a message pop up. His expression instantly softened.
“Pause the meeting.”
“Resume in one hour.”
With these two sentences, Qin Lu stood up directly and left the meeting room, leaving a group of company executives looking at each other in bewilderment.
After all, Qin Lu’s meetings were known to be intense battles. Every meeting could make them experience a rollercoaster of emotions, teetering between fear and despair.
Meetings often extended from morning to afternoon and sometimes even into the evening. So, every time Qin Lu was present, they had to prepare for potential hunger and keep some emergency heart medication on hand.
What was happening today?
The group of executives immediately started discussing.
“Hey, did you guys notice? Look at the way Qin Lu hurried off.”
“It seems like Qin Lu’s phone lit up, and he paused the meeting. Is it possible that someone important came to the company to see him?”
One executive, who was closer to Qin Lu, had sharp eyes. He noticed the screen lighting up but couldn’t see the message content.
Some of the more astute individuals had already approached Wu Yue to inquire, “Assistant Wu, is something good about to happen with Qin Lu?”
Wu Yue had a mysterious expression and replied, “Oh, I wouldn’t dare to speculate.”
He didn’t speculate, but his expression clearly conveyed to them that something was indeed going on.
The group of executives finally felt like they could breathe a sigh of relief.
Miracles do happen, but they’re not easy to come by.
Hoping that in the future, when Qin Lu has a girlfriend, he’ll be able to devote more of his energy to her. This way, they could all have a bit of a break…
In the lobby downstairs.
Nan Yan leaned casually against the wall in the VIP area, waiting for a message from Qin Lu.
The receptionist at the front desk had been keeping an eye on her since she walked in, thinking that Nan Yan might be another woman who knew that Mr. Qin had returned and had come here to fawn over him.
Seeing Nan Yan standing there without moving, the receptionist furrowed her brow slightly and asked, “Excuse me, miss.. Whom are you looking for? Do you have an appointment?”
