"I’m serious, I can definitely remedy a common cold." Xu Nian’an thought they doubted his medical skills and added specifically, "I’ve been studying medicine for a year, and I’ve been following my master for a while now, so I can definitely handle a cold."
"Xu Nian’an, I’m not sick, why would I need your help!" Pei Yining glared at him angrily. Was he cursing her to fall ill?
He had just responded to Pei Yining’s statement—had he said something wrong?
"Nian’an, we came to see you because you are my brother, not because I’m sick," Xu Nianhua’s straightforward words immediately made Xu Nian’an understand.
Xu Nian’an quickly explained, "Pei Yining, I meant that my medical skills are pretty good, I didn’t mean to curse you."
Pei Yining rolled her eyes at him and didn’t bother to speak; she turned her focus to searching through the shop.
Actually, Xu Nian’an’s choices for stock were excellent. The hair clips and bands and such were especially beautiful, tempting her to take them all back with her.
Unconsciously, she picked out a lot, not only hair clips and bands but also other exquisite items that joyfully caught the eye.
"By the way, Nian’an, what will you do about stock when you return?" Xu Nianhua shifted the conversation to inquire.
The shop might be closed, but South City and Ji Shuyuan still needed to do business.
"I’ve discussed it with Ji Shuyuan. When I go back, I’ll stock up enough for two months. That way, Shuyuan won’t have to worry about running out of stock during the summer vacation."
Xu Nian’an had already planned these matters carefully, he looked at his sister worriedly, leaned in, and whispered into her ear, "It’s you who must take care of yourself, remember, before you get married, definitely don’t..."
Before Xu Nian’an could finish, Xu Nianhua covered his mouth.
Xu Nian’an blinked his eyes.
"Nian’an, how many times have you said these words? Don’t worry, it won’t happen!" Xu Nianhua’s ears turned slightly red, thinking about that day’s kiss not only made her ears but also her face blush.
Fortunately, Xu Nian’an didn’t notice and assumed she was just blushing from shyness. He said, "I’m studying medicine, and your body situation is special, if anything unexpected happens, you must not hide it, okay?"
Does she really look like that... kind of person?
"Little sister, you can’t ignore my words." Xu Nian’an looked at Xu Nianhua anxiously, his sister’s blood type being so unique, the first child is especially important.
"Nian’an, don’t worry, I remember, what you worry about won’t happen!"
Xu Nianhua assured him repeatedly—if she didn’t know her brother cared about her so much, she might have truly been overwhelmed.
"Nian’an, when are you going to stock up? Do you need my help?" Xu Nianhua changed the subject.
Xu Nian’an looked at her deeply before saying, "The place where we stock up is crowded and hectic; you shouldn’t go." Mainly because it was too strenuous, with her thin arms and legs, better not to tire herself out.
"I’m not afraid, and if I go, I can help carry some things. Besides, I have a good eye too."
Xu Nianhua thought about it; they would need to stock up two months’ worth of goods, definitely a considerable amount. By going there, she could help out at least a little.
"You’re not afraid of being tired? Not afraid of the crowd? The weather is getting hotter, and the way it smells there isn’t pleasant." Xu Nian’an said this originally trying to dissuade Xu Nianhua, but this only made her more determined to go and help.
