This time, the medicine was even more bitter than the one she had last night, and as soon as Shen Wan took it, she could feel the bitterness.

The taste was even worse than swallowing a bitter pill. Besides the bitterness, it scratched her throat as it went down, as if dozens of razor blades were scraping her throat. She couldn’t help it and choked, her cheeks turning red, accompanied by dry heaves.

“Cough, cough, cough… Cough, cough, cough…”

Quan Hanting’s face changed drastically. His palm gently patted her thin back repeatedly.

For the first time, he noticed how incredibly thin she was. The places where his palm touched had almost no flesh; it was all bones.

Did the Shen family not feed her?!

Damn it!

If Shen Wan knew what Quan Hanting was thinking at this moment, she would probably laugh at him for making a big deal out of it. After all, she had been even thinner before.

Seeing this, Zou Lian looked at the two of them with great interest. The words he had initially wanted to say held back.

Wasn’t this called… what was it again? The term from the internet…

A godly assist!

Yes, that’s it! A godly assist!

Silently giving himself a thumbs-up.

“Are you feeling better?” The man’s eyebrows were furrowed so tightly they could crush a mosquito.

Shen Wan continued to cough, shaking her head. Her throat felt like it was on fire, both painful and spicy.

“Mr. Zou, what’s going on here? She didn’t have such a strong reaction when she took the medicine last night…”

“The prescription has changed, so the reaction is naturally different. It’s normal. After drinking it, she just needs to rest for a while, and she’ll be fine.”

Shen Wan looked at the half-bowl of remaining medicine in her hand, furrowing her brows slightly. Then, she gritted her teeth, tilted her head back, and drank it all.

Her actions were so swift that Quan Hanting couldn’t even stop her in time.

“You…”

She was indeed stubborn and persistent, but why did he have this indescribable discomfort in his heart? It was subtle but unmistakably present.

Zou Lian’s admiring gaze fell on Shen Wan’s face. It wasn’t common to see such a courageous girl nowadays.

The Sixth Lord had a good eye.

After coming up from the underground treatment room, Shen Wan suggested leaving.

“…Thank you, Sixth Uncle, for helping me.”

“Is that it?” the man asked in a subdued tone, his gaze carrying a complex mixture of emotions when he looked at her.

Shen Wan raised an eyebrow. Had she forgotten something?

She pondered for a moment. “I also want to thank you for letting me stay here for one night.”

“I don’t want your thanks.”

“But besides thanks, I can’t afford anything else. What should I do?”

Quan Hanting looked at her innocent expression and suddenly felt exasperated. “You have something, but you insist on hiding it!”

Shen Wan replied, “That means this thing is very important to me, and I won’t easily give it to anyone.”

“Is this your sincerity?’

“Is Sixth Uncle trying to extort a favor in return?” Shen Wan met the man’s gaze directly, showing no hesitation.

For every one sentence he spoke, she had ten more to say.

As he looked at her rosy lips, Quan Hanting’s throat moved. In reality, he had touched those lips before, on that night at the Hot Spring Villa when he behaved like an insatiable wolf, seeking countless…

Seeing the man’s eyes rapidly change within a few seconds, Shen Wan felt something wasn’t right. She was about to take a step back, but unexpectedly, he grabbed her waist first. Then, a warm, soft touch landed on her lips, carrying a hint of tender affection.

Her expression changed slightly, and she attempted to push him away, but she realized her uninjured left hand had already been restrained by the man.

Powerless to resist, she decided not to resist.

She simply gazed at him quietly, with no signs of embarrassment, anger, or resentment, maintaining a calm and indifferent demeanor throughout.

Quan Hanting didn’t push further; they stayed lip to lip.

He observed, tested, and on the edge of uncertainty, he hoped for even the slightest response from her..
