The Sweetest Medicine

What a coincidence!

They both had a similar experience in the same location?

At that moment, Lu Xuechen imagined the dimly lit bar and the ugly woman. But, as she turned her head, her frightening face suddenly turned into the beautiful Lin Jiayu.

This scene quickly flashed across his mind…but he dismissed it.

Incidences like this were common at a bar. Even though Lin Jiayu looked familiar, one was beautiful and the other was ugly – they were worlds apart. It was impossible for them to be the same person.

That day must have been too traumatic. That’s why he was hallucinating.

This woman was his partner and wife.

Lu Xuechen tapped his fingers on the steering wheel twice and said with 70% seriousness, “It doesn’t seem too bad to suddenly have a son.”

Two people with similar experiences were having a contract marriage. What kind of weird fate was this?

Could she have developed a disgust towards the opposite sex as well?

Faced with a woman that experienced the same thing as him, the woman’s previous coldness and arrogance suddenly seemed a little cute to Lu Xuechen.

Lin Jiayu’s eyes also relaxed all of a sudden.

She always thought this man was just a spoilt heir that used his family background to show off and did not understand how the world worked.

As the car weaved through the traffic, Lin Jiayu dazed off in silence.

A moment later, she looked at Lu Xuechen and said softly, “Thank you for today.”

Lu Xuechen curved his lips, “I’m your husband. Wasn’t this the right thing to do?”

His features were exquisite and his face was immaculate. But, no matter how many beauties surrounded him, none of them had Lin Jiayu’s style.

“We didn’t end up eating earlier. Let me take you somewhere to eat. What kind of food do you like?” Lu Xuechen asked.

“Anything,” Lin Jiayu decided she should treat him as a token of gratitude for his help.

“Japanese food?”

“I don’t like to eat raw food.”

“Hunan cuisine?”

“I don’t like spicy food.”

“Hot pot?”

“Too much heat.”

Lu Xuechen pursed his lips. This woman was so troublesome and picky. In a dull tone, he said, “…What about Cantonese food?”

Lin Jiayu nodded, “Fine.”

Lu Xuechen: “…”

What was with her response?

She was so picky. Did she grow up eating air?

Soon, the car stopped at the door of a Cantonese seafood restaurant. It was a high-end VIP restaurant that only served members. The decoration was quaint but modern, magnificent but not too showy; it was especially elegant and charming.

The couple walked in one after the other. As they entered, Lin Jiayu raised her head and saw Li Nansheng and a few friends walking out, laughing and chatting, looking satisfied with the meal they had just finished.

Lin Jiayu subconsciously stopped in her tracks.

At this time, a drunken young man suddenly ran out and brushed past Lin Jiayu like the wind.

Lin Jiayu immediately turned around and subconsciously retreated. Her retreat was so quick that she lost her footing and stumbled to the right.

She was pregnant so she knew she couldn’t fall. Realizing this, Lin Jiayu was so frightened, she broke out in a cold sweat. Out of instinct, she immediately stretched out her hand to grab onto something.

But, there was nothing to grab onto. Just as she lost hope, someone wrapped their arm around her waist and she was pulled into a warm embrace, “Be careful.”
