Chapter 460 Long-Term Pain Is Worse than Short-Term Pain

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng bought a purple sand decoction jar at a nearby supermarket and originally planned to drive directly back to Fontainebleau.

But halfway through the car, Su Wan thought that many of the flowers at home were about to wither, so she went to the flower shop with Jiang Xuecheng and bought many blooming flowers.

After returning home, Jiang Xuecheng volunteered to take over the task of decoction, while Su Wan put the freshly bought flowers into the vase one by one.

Probably because he was used to seeing Jiang Xuecheng's flower arrangements, Su Wan held the crape myrtle flowers and platycodon flowers she had just bought in her hands and put them in many poses, but she still felt that they were not satisfactory.

Su Wan frowned. She recalled Jiang Xuecheng's past flower arrangement methods, and simply imitated his ideas and placed the flowers one by one.

Su Wan saw the flower arrangement she had just arranged. The corners of her lips were slightly curved like a crescent moon. She reached out her hand and gently touched the petals of the crape myrtle.

Although it is not as good as Jiang Xuecheng's flower arrangement, it is still pretty good and has a bit of charm.

Su Wan thought that she should buy a book on modern flower arrangement art and read it in the future, just to recharge her batteries.

Suddenly, Su Wan heard a growl in her stomach.

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

Su Wan, who was hungry, immediately walked out of the study and walked quickly to the kitchen.

Su Wan had just stepped into the corridor, and before she even reached the kitchen, she smelled the bitter smell of traditional Chinese medicine from all the way.

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

How about adding a few pieces of rock sugar to the Chinese medicine to remove the bitterness?

Su Wan stood outside the glass door of the kitchen and saw Jiang Xuecheng busy tinkering with Chinese medicine for her.

The man lifted the purple clay medicine jar with his slender fingers and poured the decoction into a transparent glass.

In the glass, the dark brown potion was still bubbling, and the color looked a bit oozing.

Is this fried? What a big cup...

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

Because Xie Lan liked Chinese medicine, Su Wan drank Chinese medicine for a period of time when she was a child.

That feeling is simply unforgettable.

Therefore, Su Wan always chose to see Western medicine when she grew up. It was also best to sugar-coat the Western medicines she usually took to avoid bitterness in her mouth.

Jiang Xuecheng had long heard Su Wan's footsteps. He raised his eyes and glanced at Su Wan casually.

"Wanwan, your medicine is ready, drink it while it's hot."

Su Wan's face dropped and she looked at Jiang Xuecheng pitifully: "Xuecheng, it's so hot, how can you drink it while it's hot?"

Jiang Xuecheng glanced sideways at Su Wan. He put the glass bottle into the tray and handed the tray to Su Wan.

"You wait another two or three minutes to make it less scalding, and then drink it directly, otherwise it will be more bitter when it is cold."

It will be more bitter when it is cold...

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

"Okay, Wanwan, take this and go out first. I'll make dinner for you. It'll be ready soon. If you don't drink that cup of Chinese medicine, you won't be able to eat at night."

The seemingly threatening tone contained a hint of tenderness that was difficult to conceal.

Su Wan nodded. She looked solemnly at the glass in the tray, as if facing a formidable enemy.

How can we solve it quickly?

Su Wan returned to the living room with the cup of Chinese medicine. She held her chin in her hands and was fascinated by the brown Chinese medicine.

The heat of the medicinal soup rose into the air, and Su Wan even felt that the whole room was filled with this smell.

No, you should drink it as soon as possible. Like Jiang Xuecheng said, this medicine will definitely be harder to drink if it is cold...

Su Wan spent a long time mentally building up, and finally picked up the glass and took a big gulp of it.

Su Wan wanted to drink it all in one gulp, but within half a second of taking the traditional Chinese medicine into her mouth, Su Wan felt a bitter smell spreading between her lips and teeth!

sky!

Su Wan's beautiful facial features changed color repeatedly. She quickly swallowed the Chinese medicine she had just taken, and then subconsciously put the glass back on the table.

It’s really hard...

Su Wan's beautiful eyebrows furrowed tightly, and she doubted whether she could drink up the cup of Chinese medicine.

It was too unpleasant to drink, and the taste of Coptidis chinensis bore the brunt, which instantly overwhelmed Su Wan's taste buds...

Just when Su Wan was melancholy, Jiang Xuecheng came out with two bowls of dishes, one was minced pork and eggplant, and the other was vegetarian stir-fried green vegetables.

Jiang Xuecheng saw the glass bottle full of Chinese medicine, and was about to ask Su Wan if he hadn't drank it. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of the dark brown medicine at the corner of Su Wan's lips, and instantly understood that this girl gave up after taking a small sip!

Jiang Xuecheng smiled helplessly, then walked over quickly and placed the two dishes on the golden nanmu table.

"Wanwan, I've finished cooking, and you just drank so much. Isn't it too perfunctory?"

"I don't want to either..."

If she could, she wished she had drank the cup of Chinese medicine in one gulp!

Su Wan grimaced. She quickly glanced at the two dishes on the table, and then looked steadily at Jiang Xuecheng.

"Did you promise to cook something delicious for me?"

"There is also a dish of braised muntjac meat, which has not been brought out in the kitchen yet."

Jiang Xuecheng's deep voice fell into her ears, and Su Wan's eyes suddenly lit up.

She doesn't have any other hobbies, she's just a glutton, and she's a real carnivore lover. The mutton deer meat is tender and delicious, and Jiang Xuecheng's cooking skills are very good. You don't have to think about it to know that it must be very delicious!

With such delicious food in front of him, how could Su Wan let it go?

Jiang Xuecheng looked at Su Wan calmly with stars in his eyes. The corners of his lips were curved, and his smile was light and breezy, but there was a hint of evil in it.

"Wanwan, if you don't finish the cup of Chinese medicine, don't even think about eating the muntjac meat. Oh, don't eat the minced meat and eggplant either. Just eat green vegetables."

"Xue Cheng, how can you bear to let me become a vegetarian?"

Su Wan glanced at the bright and juicy green vegetables, but didn't look oily at all, and felt tight in her heart.

"I do what I say, I'm not kidding you."

Hearing Su Wan's begging for mercy, Jiang Xuecheng felt very happy, and the smile on his lips was as light as the spring breeze.

With that said, Jiang Xuecheng picked up the cup of Chinese medicine and handed it directly to Su Wan's hand.

"Wanwan, long-term pain is not as good as short-term pain. It's just a cup of Chinese medicine. It's only good for your body, not harmful."

Su Wan thought of the Huangmen muntjac meat still in the kitchen, and finally became heartless, took the glass and poured medicine into her mouth.

However, when the bitter taste hit, even though her reason told Su Wan to insist on drinking it in one gulp, she subconsciously felt that it was very bitter, and she even felt like spitting out the concoction.

Su Wan's brows were furrowed. She forced herself to drink a third of it, but the bitter taste in her mouth was too much for her to bear!
