[Ordinary Girl] My boyfriend's brothers are all very curious about me.

Lin Su had just woken up when she heard the sound of rain outside. The light rain had started last night, stopped for a while in the middle of the night, and started again in the morning.

Pushing open the bedroom window, a gust of cold wind rushed in. Lin Su glanced at the gloomy sky outside and quickly closed the window again.

Today is the weekend, and Lin Su originally planned to stay at home and not go out. However, Zong Yan said that he had found an old Chinese medicine doctor for her and would take her to see the doctor today.

A few days ago, Zongyan was going to take her out for a morning run to exercise, but fortunately the weather has been bad these past few days, so the plan was not carried out.

Lin Su is a bit lazy; she doesn't want to run, but she's willing to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, though she hopes the medicine won't be too bitter.

The old Chinese medicine doctor lived quite far away, and Shao Huaizhi was worried that they wouldn't be able to find the place, so he accompanied them there. Only then did Lin Su realize that it was he who had found the person.

Zong Yan drove, Shao Huaizhi sat in the passenger seat giving directions, and Lin Su sat alone in the back seat.

The lights in the back seat were dim, and it was a gloomy, rainy day outside. Lin Su turned her head to look at the rainy scene outside the window, and heard Shao Huaizhi's gentle voice in her ear.

"Mr. Zhang no longer practices medicine. He now lives in a villa in the suburbs, enjoying his retirement. However, I have already made an appointment with him, and someone will meet us when we arrive."

"Thanks." Zong Yan had also heard of this old gentleman's reputation. This was not someone an ordinary person could arrange a meeting with; he must have used a lot of connections.

"It's nothing."

It took nearly two hours for the car to reach a villa. Zong Yan stopped the car. The rain outside had stopped, and a man who looked like a butler was waiting for them in the yard.

"Uncle Zhang." Shao Huaizhi recognized the butler and greeted him after getting out of the car.

Uncle Zhang said with a warm smile, "Young Master Huai, it's been a long time. Please come in and have some tea with your friend. The old master will be down in a bit."

"Okay." Lin Su followed them into the house. She and Zong Yan sat on a double sofa. Shao Huaizhi didn't need Uncle Zhang's help; he picked up the kettle on the table and poured tea himself.

Hot tea was poured from the kettle, and Shao Huaizhi gave some to Lin Su first, saying, "Have some to warm your hands."

"Thank you." Lin Su quickly accepted it. Actually, she wasn't cold. There was heating in the car and in the room, so this winter wasn't as cold as she had imagined.

After waiting for half an hour, Mr. Zhang finally came downstairs. He looked very old, with all his hair and beard white, but this made him look more like a highly respected old doctor.

He first exchanged a few words with Shao Huaizhi, then turned to Lin Su, smiling and stroking his beard, "Little girl, put your hand out."

Lin Su felt inexplicably nervous. She placed her hand on the table, and Mr. Zhang put his fingers on it, but withdrew his hand after a short while.

"My body is a bit weak, but fortunately, my bones haven't been damaged. I should be able to recover in about half a year." Mr. Zhang said casually, but most people can't recover that quickly.

However, nowadays, everyone who can see him for treatment is either rich or powerful. He prescribes more expensive medicines, and since the young girl is young, it's easy for her to recover.

Lin Su didn't expect seeing a doctor to be so simple. She felt like she had spent two hours there, but the doctor only took five minutes to see her. However, the old doctor gave her a very long prescription.

"Do we have to take all these medications?" On the way back, Shao Huaizhi drove while Zong Yan and Lin Su sat in the back seat, studying the list together, though they couldn't understand it anyway.

"I definitely need to take it." Zong Yan didn't care whether he could understand it or not. He would just take the prescription to the pharmacy to get the medicine, and the professionals would understand.

"If you don't want to go for a morning run, you can't skip taking these medications."

"I'll take it." Lin Su wasn't an unreasonable child. Why would she refuse medicine that was good for her health? But she still underestimated how unpleasant Chinese medicine tasted.

Shao Huaizhi knew more than them. Today, he took them to see a doctor, accompanied them to get their medicine, and even went home with them to teach them how to decoct Chinese medicine.

His busy schedule only fueled Zong Yan's suspicions about him.

But just as this suspicion arose, the smell emanating from the decoction of Chinese medicine made me gag. How could it smell so awful?

Zong Yan had already retreated outside the kitchen. Shao Huaizhi stood in front of the medicine pot as if he couldn't smell the bitterness. Lin Su stood next to him, wrinkling her nose as she learned how to decoct the medicine.

"The smell is indeed a bit unpleasant. We could hire a housekeeper to brew the medicine," Shao Huaizhi said, turning his head to the side.

"Does that mean it tastes even worse when you drink it?" Lin Su couldn't help but cover her nose with her hand, and her voice was muffled.

"Yes, you'll get used to it after drinking it a few more times," Shao Huaizhi comforted gently. "Just drink it for half a year, and you won't be afraid of the cold in winter anymore."

Lin Su nodded sullenly. She would definitely drink it. She couldn't afford it even if she sold herself. It was so expensive that she didn't even want to get treatment when she was at the pharmacy.

The medicine was ready, and the steaming aroma of the Chinese medicine was so strong it was almost unbearable. Zong Yan had already moved away from the kitchen area.

Shao Huaizhi poured the medicine into a cup and handed it to Lin Su, saying, "Drink it while it's hot."

"It's still a bit hot, let's wait a little longer." Lin Su swallowed, her mouth already tasted bitter before she even drank it.

Shao Huaizhi's Adam's apple bobbed. He turned his head away, but Zong Yan had already disappeared. The kitchen window was open, and the cold wind outside couldn't dispel the bitter smell inside.

"Drink up, don't be afraid." Shao Huaizhi bent down slightly, holding Lin Su's wrist with one hand, guiding her to lift the cup filled with Chinese medicine.

"It's really hot." The closer you get, the worse the smell becomes. Lin Su is getting a little anxious. "Don't worry."

Shao Huaizhi paused, but didn't loosen his grip on her wrist. "Then let's wait a little longer."

He looked down at her, but Lin Su was only focused on looking down at the Chinese medicine that emitted an unpleasant smell. After a while, she gritted her teeth, tilted her head back, and took a sip.

She had intended to drink it all in one gulp, but she couldn't manage it. After just one sip, her face turned bitter, and she felt like gagging. Suddenly, a hand covered her mouth. "Swallow it."

With a "gulp," Lin Su swallowed it.

After taking the first sip, the rest didn't seem so difficult. When Zong Yan returned with the candy, Lin Su had already swallowed the last sip.

"My wife is great, have a piece of candy." Zong Yan put a piece of candy in her mouth.

Lin Su had a sweet candy in her mouth, but her face was still bitter. She looked up at Shao Huaizhi, who was washing cups. He was really good when he was good, but he always liked to interrogate her.

Overall, he's a good person.

"I'm leaving." After cleaning the medicine pots in the kitchen, Shao Huaizhi didn't linger. Zong Yan saw him to the door and sincerely thanked him, saying, "I'll treat you to a meal next time."

But once the door is closed, he immediately transforms into a completely different person.

"Honey, he did so much for you today, aren't you touched?"
