The Sweetest Medicine

“You used to be soldier?” Yu Gangan turned and looked at Fang Zhihan in surprise. He actually saved Ye Xi on his own; no wonder he was such a good fighter.

“En.”

“Then, how many years were you in the army?”

“8 years.”

So long? He was currently 26-years-old and he retired 5 years ago when he was 21. Did that mean…? Yu Gangan was shocked, “You joined the army when you were 13?”

“I guess so.”

He went to the army base with his grandfather when he was 13 and stayed there ever since. Even though he still went to school, he was already a soldier.

Yu Gangan supported half her face and slightly turned her body, “Since you were there for so long, why did you retire?”

Fang Zhihan looked at her with a deep gaze as his lips curved upwards into a meaningful smile, “Are you asking me about my past because you acknowledge me as your husband?”

A drop of sweat rolled down Yu Gangan’s face.

This man was always thinking of ways to take advantage of her.

Why did he insist that he was her husband?

She had never gone looking for some random man, nor did she abandon her husband.

“Move to my place,” Fang Zhihan’s voice suddenly sounded again.

Yu Gangan’s eyes filled with shock as she stared at Fang Zhihan. His calm and cold gaze seemed to contain a trace of passion. It was as though a slight spark could set her entire body alight.

Her mouth suddenly felt dry.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the car also fell silent.

Until Yu Gangan’s phone began to ring.

She immediately sat upright and took the phone out of her handbag. As soon as the call connected, Lin Jiayu’s voice sounded from the other end of the phone, “Gangan, did your husband pick you up?”

Yu Gangan felt embarrassed.

Lin Jiayu was no longer just her patient; she was her friend. So, she thought it was time for her to tell Lin Jiayu there was nothing going on between her and Fang Zhihan.

“I’ve already left the Ye Household, have you eaten yet?”

“No, I was waiting for you.”

Yu Gangan looked at Fang Zhihan and Fang Zhihan nodded his head in agreement. She then said, “We’ll come pick you up for dinner then.”

Fang Zhihan chose the place to eat: one of the most famous French restaurants in Beijing.

While on the road, Fang Zhihan told Yu Gangan that Lu Xuechen was also at the restaurant and was on a blind date.

Soon, Yu Gangan curiously sat down diagonally from Lu Xuechen, seperated by an embroidered screen.

Lu Xuechen was not surprised when he saw Yu Gangan enter. After all, he was the one that invited Fang Zhihan there. But, when he saw Lin Jiayu next to Yu Gangan, his expression was a bit uncomfortable.

He had a feeling that this cold woman would ridicule him.

But, Lin Jiayu ended up sitting with her back to him…

Opposite Lu Xuechen was a beautiful woman in an off-white dress.

She looked at Lu Xuechen shyly and said, “Xuechen, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect to go on a blind date with you again…”

Lu Xuechen was particularly speechless.

This woman seemed to be clinging to him.

“…I must say that we really have fate between us. I saw you at Baichuan Bar last night, but it was too dark, so…”

Lu Xuechen sat back casually and said in a questioning tone, “Was it fate? Or were you following me?”

Wen Xinmei’s expression changed, “Xuechen, I wasn’t following you. Everything is honestly a coincidence. I really think we could give things a try.”
