His mood was dampened instantly. As he looked at the woman in front of him, he thought of how to coax her into drinking the medicine. He said in an extremely gentle voice, “Nainai...”

She raised her head, her big eyes filled with confusion. It was as if she could not believe his sudden gentle behavior.

Si Zhengting’s ears turned red, and he had to swallow back the words that had almost escaped his mouth. “You have to take care of your body so that you can bear an heir for me.”

Initially, Zhuang Nainai had felt a surge of bliss when she heard him call her so gently all of a sudden. However, as soon as she heard what he said after that, that feeling of bliss vanished into thin air.

So... drinking the medicine was a task.

Actually, throughout these five years, she had suffered so much; thus, drinking the medicine was not difficult at all. It was just like how she forced herself to eat ginger so as to not fall sick, even though she disliked ginger.

Truth was, being sick and weak had caused her to be emotionally sensitive. Seeing him with the medicine had made her want to act coy.

Putting on a straight face, Zhuang Nainai unhappily replied with a sound of affirmation. She reached for the bowl and gulped down the medicine in one shot.

The bitter and strong taste spread across her whole mouth, almost triggering her gag reflex. Downing the medicine suddenly after a few days without food made her feel like even the tip of her tongue was bitter.

Just when she wanted to ask for some water to gargle, she suddenly heard him say, “Open your mouth.”

She opened her mouth subconsciously. The next moment, his long, warm, and big hand threw something into her mouth. Soon, a sweet taste melted across her mouth, which helped to remove the bad taste.

Before Si Zhengting could retrieve his fingers from her mouth, she had sealed her lips.

Her lips were soft and slightly supple.

Upon sensing that his fingers were in her mouth, she immediately let go of them. As she leaned her head back slightly, his fingers slid across her face.

Si Zhengting’s heart skipped a beat. The area he had touched felt like feathers that had just glided across. That tingling feeling travelled straight from his fingers to his heart, causing his ears to turn even redder.

Taken aback, Zhuang Nainai could not believe what had just happened. Upon looking up, she saw Si Zhengting slant his head slightly as his eyes wandered around.

Her eyes slowly started to light up.

If he really did not care about her and only wanted her to bear a child for him, why would he bother preparing a sweet?

So... did this mean that even though he did not love her as much as she wanted him to, he actually still cared about her?

When she thought of this, the sweet in her mouth tasted even sweeter, and the sweetness slowly travelled from the tip of her tongue to her heart.

Thereafter, Si Zhengting took away the bowl from her hands. Around 10 minutes later, the housekeeper brought shredded chicken porridge. After finishing the bowl of porridge, Zhuang Nainai finally felt her body becoming warmer and gaining more and more energy.

However, judging from how Si Zhengting was sitting on the couch without saying anything, it seemed like he would not let her leave the bed.

Hence, Zhuang Nainai just lay down and covered herself with the blanket.

After all, both of them had just ended their cold war, or, perhaps, it had not ended, so Zhuang Nainai felt slightly uncomfortable to share a room with him alone.

She had just slept for so long. Thus, she would not be able to fall asleep soon. Hence, she just started using her phone. When Zhuang Nainai switched on her phone and glanced at the date, she suddenly gasped.

Shortly after, she could hear urgent footsteps approach her. Next, she heard a soft voice from above. “What happened?”

Upon hearing her gasp, Si Zhengting had thought that she was feeling sick again. He therefore rushed over and reached out his hand to lift the blanket to check on her.
