The Indifferent Young Master's Flash Marriage

Chapter 460: Short-Term Pain Is Better Than Long-Term Pain

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng bought a purple clay pot at a nearby supermarket. They were going to drive straight back to Fontainebleau.

However, halfway through the drive, Su Wan remembered that many of the flower arrangements at home were about to wither, so she went to the flower shop with Jiang Xuecheng again and bought many freshly bloomed flowers.

When they got home, Jiang Xuecheng volunteered to take on the responsibility of decocting the medicine, while Su Wan put the fresh flowers that she had just bought into the vase one by one.

Perhaps she was used to seeing the flower arrangements made by Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan held the crepe-myrtle flowers and balloon flowers she had just bought in her hands and posed them several times, but she still felt that they were not satisfactory enough.

Su Wan frowned. She recalled the way Jiang Xuecheng arranged the flowers in the past, so she simply imitated his idea and arranged the flowers away one by one.

When Su Wan saw the flower arrangements she had just arranged, the corners of her lips curved like a crescent moon. She reached out her hand and gently stroked the petals of the crepe-myrtle flowers.

Although it was not as good as the flower arrangement arranged by Jiang Xue Cheng, it was still pretty good and had some charm.

Su Wan thought that in the future, she should buy a book on the art of modern flower arrangement for inspiration.

All of a sudden, Su Wan heard a gurgling sound coming from her stomach.

Su Wan froze for a moment. She looked up at the wall clock in the study room and realized that it was already half past six in the evening.

The Hungry Su Wan immediately walked out of the study room and quickly went to the kitchen.

Su Wan had just walked into the corridor and had not even reached the kitchen when she smelled the bitterness of traditional Chinese medicine from afar.

Su Wan was speechless. Why did it feel so bitter before she drank it?

Should she add a few pieces of rock sugar to the traditional Chinese medicine later to remove the bitterness?

Su Wan stood outside the glass door of the kitchen and saw that Jiang Xuecheng was busy working on the traditional Chinese medicine for her.

The man’s slender fingers lifted the purple clay pot and poured all the decocted medicine into a transparent glass.

In the glass, the black and brown medicine was still bubbling, and the color looked a little scary.

Was it cooked? What a big cup...

Su Wan secretly swallowed her saliva, and her expression suddenly became a little bitter.

Because Xie Lan liked Chinese medicine, Su Wan drank some Chinese medicine when she was young.

That kind of feeling was unforgettable.

Therefore, when Su Wan grew up, she always chose Western medicine. The Western medicine she usually took had to be coated with sugar, so as not to make her mouth bitter.

Jiang Xuecheng had already heard Su Wan’s footsteps. He raised his eyes and looked at Su Wan casually.

“Wan Wan, your medicine is ready. Drink it while it’s hot.”

Su Wan’s face fell as she looked at Jiang Xuecheng pitifully. “Xuecheng, it’s so hot. How can I drink it while it’s hot?”

Jiang Xuecheng glanced at Su Wan from the corner of his eyes. He put the glass bottle into the tray and handed it to Su Wan.

“Wait for another two or three minutes. Make it not so hot and then drink it directly. Otherwise, it will be even more bitter when it’s cold.”

It will be even more bitter when it’s cold...

Su Wan was shocked by Jiang Xuecheng’s words. Her expression changed, and she hesitated for two seconds before taking the plate.

“Alright, Wan Wan, take this and go out first. I’ll make you dinner. It’ll be ready soon. If you don’t drink that cup of Chinese medicine, you won’t be able to eat dinner tonight.”

His tone sounded threatening, but there was a gentleness that was difficult to hide.

Su Wan nodded. She looked solemnly at the glass on the tray, as if she was facing a great enemy.

How could she quickly get it done?

Su Wan returned to the living room with the cup of Chinese medicine. She rested her chin on her hands and fell into a trance as she stared at the brown Chinese medicine.

The steam from the medicinal soup rose in the air. Su Wan even felt that the entire room was filled with this smell.

No, it was better to drink it as soon as possible. Just like what Jiang Xuecheng said, if this medicine was cold, it would definitely taste worse...

Su Wan had been mentally preparing herself for a long time. Finally, she picked up the glass and gulped down a large mouthful of the medicine.

Su Wan wanted to drink it all in one gulp, but in less than half a second after the medicine entered her mouth, Su Wan felt a bitter smell permeating between her lips and teeth!

God!

Su Wan’s beautiful facial features changed continuously. She quickly swallowed the Chinese medicine that had just entered her mouth, and then subconsciously put the glass back on the table.

It was really bitter...

Su Wan’s beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted together. She even wondered if she could finish this cup of Chinese medicine.

It was really too horrible to drink. Moreover, the taste of Coptis Chinensis bore the brunt of the taste, and it instantly attacked Su Wan’s taste buds...

Just as Su Wan was feeling depressed, Jiang Xuecheng came out with two dishes. One was eggplant with minced meat, and the other was vegetable stir-fry.

Jiang Xuecheng saw that the glass bottle was full of Chinese medicine. He was about to ask Su Wan if she had not drunk it when he suddenly saw the black-brown medicinal juice at the corner of Su Wan’s lips. He instantly understood that this girl had given up after taking a small sip!

Jiang Xuecheng smiled helplessly. Then, he quickly walked over and placed the two dishes on the gold-threaded phoebe wood table.

“Wan Wan, I’ve already prepared the dishes, but you’ve only drunk so little. Isn’t that too half-hearted?”

“I don’t want to either...”

If it was possible, she really wished that she had drunk the entire cup of Chinese medicine in one gulp!

Su Wan’s face was bitter. She quickly swept her gaze across the two dishes on the table and then fixed her gaze on Jiang Xuecheng.

“You promised to cook something delicious for me?”

“There’s also a braised muntjac meat that hasn’t been served yet in the kitchen.”

Jiang Xuecheng’s deep voice fell into her ears and instantly made Su Wan’s eyes light up.

She didn’t have any other hobbies, she was just a glutton. She was a true carnivore. The muntjac meat was fresh and tender, and Jiang Xuecheng’s culinary skills were especially good. There wasn’t a doubt that it would be especially delicious!

How could Su Wan let go of such a delicacy?

Jiang Xue Cheng calmly looked at Su Wan with stars in his eyes. The corners of his lips curled up. His smile was light, but there was a hint of evil in it.

“Wan Wan, if you don’t finish that cup of Chinese medicine, don’t even think about eating the muntjac meat. Oh, don’t eat the eggplant with minced meat either. Just eat the vegetables.”

“Xuecheng, how can you bear to let me be a vegetarian?”

Su Wan’s heart tightened as she glanced at the vegetables that were bright and fresh, but did not look oily at all.

“I’m a man of my word. I’m not joking with you.”

Hearing Su Wan’s begging, Xuecheng was in a very happy mood. The smile on his lips was faint like a spring breeze.

As he spoke, Xuecheng picked up the cup of Chinese medicine and handed it directly to Su Wan.

“Wan Wan, it’s better to have short-term pain than long-term pain. It’s just a cup of Chinese medicine. As long as it’s good for your body, there’s no harm.”

Su Wan thought of the braised muntjac meat that was still in the kitchen. In the end, she steeled her heart and poured the medicine into her mouth.

However, when the bitter taste assaulted her, even though her rationality told Su Wan to insist on drinking it in one gulp, she subconsciously felt that it was very bitter. She even felt that she wanted to spit out the medicinal water.

Su Wan’s brows were tightly furrowed. She forced herself to drink a third of it, but the bitter taste in her mouth was really unbearable!
