Only then did Lu Anzhi notice that Li Jiu was holding a paper bag in his hand.
The contents inside look...
Like a cup of milk tea!
She stared at Huo Zhiyan with some confusion: "You really have a bad temper. Li Jiu will bring you a cup of milk tea. Are you so angry?"
Li Jiu smiled bitterly: "That's right."
As he said that, he stuffed the milk tea into Lu Anzhi's hand: "The brothers below asked me to go to the police station together. Well, boss, young lady, I will drive the car away first."
As he spoke, he retreated: "I'm really leaving, I'm in a hurry."
When he walked to the elevator and found that the elevator had not come down, he actually ran down the stairs.
It can be seen that it is indeed urgent.
Huo Zhiyan looked at the empty doorway and the lingering cup of Chinese herbal milk tea.
The veins on his forehead bulged with anger.
Lu Anzhi was also confused. She grabbed the cup of milk tea from the paper bag and asked thoughtfully: "Li Jiu is gone? What will you do?"
Huo Zhiyan gritted his molars and said, "I'll take a taxi myself."
"Oh!" Lu Anzhi took out the straw again and asked tentatively: "You don't want to drink this milk tea, right?"
Huo Zhiyan didn't even think about it: "I won't drink."
"Okay!" Lu Anzhi smiled, opened the milk tea with a pop, and put the straw into his mouth: "The packaging looks quite expensive, so we can't waste it."
Then he drank half the cup in one go.
Huo Zhiyan:? ? ?
Lu Anzhi:! ! !
Time seemed to have stopped, and the only sound left in the air was the sound of Lu Anzhi swallowing.
After a while, they both spoke at the same time.
Huo Zhiyan: "Why are you drinking it?"
Lu Anzhi: "Why does it smell like medicine?"
Huo Zhiyan's expression changed drastically, and he stretched out his hand to grab it back.
But someone turned around deftly, took the milk tea cup to the lamp and muttered: "What kind of milk tea is this?"
The taste is wrong. Could it be that it has been left out for too long?
Lu Anzhi squinted and read the words clearly: "Chinese herbal milk tea - special blend!"
"Independently developed by the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital."
She licked her lips, feeling that there was an indescribable weirdness in the word "special tune".
"Huo Zhiyan, is this stuff specially prepared for you?"
The man tilted his head stubbornly: "No, no! Just... Li Jiu bought it casually."
"Oh!" Lu Anzhi continued to smack his lips and thought for a moment: "That shouldn't matter. Maybe you can replenish it if you drink more."
Huo Zhiyan:? ? ?
Then I watched helplessly as someone drank a large cup of milk tea.
He closed the door silently, sat on the sofa without saying a word, took out his mobile phone, closed the taxi app, and switched to WeChat to send a message to Li Jiu.
Huo Zhiyan: [You said this milk tea was specially prepared by Mr. Gu? 】
Li has nine lives: [Yes, boss, did you drink it? 】
Huo Zhiyan: [Do you have Mr. Gu’s contact information? Phone or WeChat. 】
Li has nine lives: [No, why does Mr. Gu like me? He is in direct contact with the old lady. 】
Huo Zhiyan: […]
Li has nine lives: [Boss, how do you feel now? 】
Li has nine lives: [I heard from Mrs. Tai that the effect of the medicine will be most obvious after an hour. Boss, don’t drink it too fast for the first time. 】
Li has nine lives: [Boss, what are you talking about? Do you want me to go back? 】
Li has nine lives: [Boss, please don’t scare me. I was wrong. The madam asked me to give it to you. You can throw it away if you don’t want to drink it. I will definitely keep it a secret for you. 】
Li Jiu was a little panicked. He parked the car aside and kept staring at his phone.
But there was no reply from the other party.
After ten minutes, he summoned up the courage to send a question mark.
Then, a red warning popped up right after.
have to!
Got blocked by the boss again!
…
In the old house, Lu Anzhi touched her round belly and burped.
"Huo Zhiyan, why are you sitting back again? Didn't you say you wanted to take a taxi?"
The man lowered his eyes and continued to stare at the phone, without giving her any of his spare time: "I won't leave for now."
"ah?"
Lu Anzhi frowned: "If you don't leave, where will you sleep? In that small room, I will..."
It’s full of clutter again!
I won't have to clean it up again like last time.
Brother, she is also a human being, and she is still injured. Please let her go.
Huo Zhiyan checked on his mobile phone for a long time to find out what side effects the traditional Chinese medicine with that effect would have if a woman accidentally took it.
The answers received were mixed, but one was particularly scary. The answer said that the effect of the medicine would be more severe than that of men taking it, and it would even cause the whole body to become hot and dry, ranging from night sweats to collapse.
Huo Zhiyan stared at those words and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
But Lu Anzhi's mind was full of begging to be let go.
"You'd better go. Although I'm not seriously injured, I really don't have the strength to clean up your room again."
Huo Zhiyan put away his phone and raised his eyes to look at her again, with rarely shown concern in his eyes: "How do you feel now? Do you feel... very hot?"
Lu Anzhi looked at him as if he were a fool: "It must be hot in the summer, aren't you?"
Then he went to find the air conditioner remote control: "Hey, when did the air conditioner be turned on? I thought it wasn't turned on, but when you said that, I really felt it was quite hot."
"No, I have to take a shower. Do you want to go or not?"
After all this trouble, it was actually very late, and Lu Anzhi felt a little sleepy.
She was too lazy to talk to the anxious man sitting in the living room, so she took her nightgown from the closet, closed the door and went to take a shower.
The sound of water rushing made Huo Zhiyan feel uncomfortable.
He picked up the phone and walked to the balcony. Although it was almost midnight, he called his personal doctor, Shen Congjun, without hesitation.
"Hey boss, are you still up so late?"
The call was quickly connected, and I heard a nasal sound on the other end, as if I had fallen asleep.
Huo Zhiyan pondered for a moment: "Congjun, have you done any research on the pharmacology of traditional Chinese medicine?"
"Ah?" Shen Congjun said in astonishment: "I really don't know much about Chinese medicine... What's wrong?"
Huo Zhiyan was a little confused as he held the phone, but when he thought about taking the wrong medicine, it could be a big or small thing. At this time, he must not hide his illness and avoid medical treatment.
So, he described the situation just now in the simplest language.
Three minutes later, Shen Congjun cleared his throat. It was obvious that he wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh: "Well... Boss, although I don't know much about the pharmacology of traditional Chinese medicine, I know a friend who comes from a noble family. How about I consult him?" ?”
Huo Zhiyan's clear black and white eyes revealed a hint of coldness: "You can ask, but be careful with your wording."
"Okay, okay!" Shen Congjun quickly hung up the phone.
Huo Zhiyan stood on the balcony, staring at the wildly growing camphor tree outside the window, his thoughts wandering to nowhere for a while.
I always feel like time is getting so slow.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the time several times.
Tsk…
Why is this woman taking so long to take a shower? It's been twenty minutes. She couldn't have drowned in it, right?
He thought for a moment but still felt uneasy, loosened his collar, and walked towards the bathroom with some hesitation.
