Life With You

Song Xi also wants to save face, right?

The rock candy jar in her hand was like a hot potato. It was neither holding it nor putting it down. She looked at George Sheng at the door and said as non-emotionally as possible: The medicine has been brewing for too long. It is not an ordinary pain.

George Sheng immediately said: What did I say when you got through my medicine?

Song Xi thought in her mind that he talked too much, complained and teased, and said that the friend on the other end of the phone was the one he loved.

But if you think about it, you can't say it this way. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a blatant provocation?

The hand holding the rock sugar jar moved, and Song Xi poured four tablespoons of rock sugar into George Sheng's medicine bowl in front of George Sheng. He said in a good voice and with a smile: You are a medicine man. If it’s just right, it won’t be painful.”

George Sheng glanced at her, turned and left. Song Xi stared at the door without blinking, making sure that he would not come back again, and quickly put five spoons of rock sugar into his bowl.

When George Sheng went downstairs again, he held a handful of candy in his hand. Song Xi had already raised his head and drank the Chinese medicine. The long-term pain was worse than the short-term pain, and he was drinking water to rinse his mouth.

Seeing the candies he put on the table, she walked over, looked at his face and said, Lend me one.

George Sheng said expressionlessly, You were the one who bought it.

Song Xi peeled off the candy wrapper, put the candy into her mouth, and replied: It's yours if I give it to you.

If he hadn't made the medicine so painful today, she wouldn't even need to eat candy.

George Sheng took a spoon and poured three spoons of sugar into the bowl. Song Xi said, I've already put a lot of it for you.

George Sheng didn't even raise his eyelids, Would you like to try it first?

Song Xi looked at the dark, dark soup and shook her head. Forget it, she had suffered enough.

The silver spoon was stirring in the bowl. Song Xi could see that George Sheng was really unwilling to take the medicine. She could grind it for a while, but she had been standing here watching it for three minutes.

The medicine was very hot and the rock sugar melted quickly. Song Xi couldn't help but urge, Hold your breath, it's just a matter of two mouthfuls.

George Sheng said in a deep voice: Do you know that I drink Chinese medicine when I have nightmares now?

Song Ximei raised her beautiful eyes slightly and replied: Are you even dreaming? That means the medicine is still effective.

George Sheng turned his head to the side and glanced at her faintly. Song Xi put on a smile and said angrily: Hang on, you finish this medicine. If it really doesn't work, we will change it to something else.

George Sheng said: Then my suffering is in vain?

Song Xi said: There is no such thing as suffering in vain.

George Sheng stared at her seriously and opened his thin lips, Don't do this to me. Chicken soup for the soul can't suppress the bitter taste.

Seeing that this trick didn't work, Song Xi had an idea and immediately added: Doing things you don't want to do is just a way to hone your will.

George Sheng asked without changing his expression: Would you rather be scolded or beaten?

Facing his cold and serious expression, Song Xi's scalp went numb and she shook her head decisively.

George Sheng looked away, knowing that he couldn't escape, and picked up the medicine bowl with a look of death. Song Xi saw the displeasure in his eyes, and quickly helped him peel off the candy wrapper, keeping it ready at any time.

He said that he would not listen to her, but George Sheng still secretly held his breath, and then poured the medicine into his throat. The medicine was sweet and bitter, like an indescribable new taste, exciting. People's taste buds are almost numb.

Song Xi saw him looking up and finishing the drink, and immediately handed over the candy in his hand. George Sheng took it and held it in his mouth, his expression showing displeasure for ten seconds.

Song Xi is a very competent family doctor, and she has to take care of the patient's mood. Knowing that George Sheng loses his moral integrity as soon as he takes medicine, she stared at his side face and said, Have you noticed that you are already better than before? You have made a lot of progress these days, and I want to give you a thumbs up manually.

George Sheng glanced at her with the end of his eyes, noncommittal.

From long-term experience, Song Xi immediately saw that George Sheng was still useful, so he continued to coax: You are really powerful. I have tasted your medicine, and ordinary people can't stand it at all, so you are destined to be no ordinary person.

George Sheng was a fool so he couldn't hear her blatant compliment. The key was to be careful when praising him. It was almost at the kindergarten level, and only a child would be really happy.

How old are the patients you usually face? He finally couldn't help asking, expressing his confusion.

Song Xi rolled his eyes slightly, From ninety-nine to someone who can just walk, they are all big and small. What's wrong?

George Sheng replied coldly and seriously: I would like to advise you, if you are over five years old, stop fooling people like this, and be more sincere, especially in a service industry like yours.

Song Xi couldn't tell whether he was unhappy or looking for trouble. Anyway, his tone was sarcastic.

Seeing him turn around and walk out, she suddenly said: Thank you for picking me up at the airport, good night.

George Sheng didn't stop or look back, and walked away coolly. Song Xi was used to it, and there was no disturbance in his heart. Only George Sheng knew it in his heart. Not only was he not angry, he was in a good mood.

Song Xi packed up the medicine jars and went upstairs. It was much earlier than she expected. She thought she would have to prepare the medicine when she got home, but everyone had prepared the medicine.

Lying down a few hours early, Song Xi closed his eyes and did not fall asleep immediately. There was a picture in front of him - he was holding a black umbrella and walking from the bottom to the top, especially the umbrella with its rim raised. At that moment, his face was hidden behind strings of water drops, just like a king wearing a bead curtain. His whole body was clearly exuding the coldness that no strangers should enter, but at that moment, she felt that her whole body, even the palms of her hands, were cold. Warm.

It is said that women like to listen to sweet words, but Song Xi is more realistic because of her family environment. In the past, Song Yuanqing often said that whether a person is good to another should not be judged by what they say, but what they do with their actions. This is also Song Xi's rule of conduct over the years. Make sure you do what you say before you say it. Sometimes you don't even need to say it, just do it... just like George Sheng.

Song Xi was sometimes really angry at George Sheng's mouth, and was told to cry more than once or twice by him, but every time she was so angry, she couldn't help but think of the things he did, whether it was helping her celebrate her birthday , let her see Song Yuanqing on her birthday, or help her seek justice from Dong Lijun and Song Yuan, mother and daughter, even at the cost of offending Jiang Jiayi and the people behind her.

The most recent one was sending her to the airport and picking her up from the airport. If she said she wasn't moved, it would be a lie. So every time before she wanted to get angry with him, she tried to calm down and let herself think about how good he was.

In the past, she said that she wanted to be friends with him, which was a helpless move, but from today on, she said that she wanted to be friends with him, which was serious.

Three years is not a long time, nor is it a short time. After all, she is at fault. If she can help him cure his illness, she will be somewhat relieved when the relationship between the two is terminated.

Three years? Three months have passed now. Time flies so fast.
