After Elder Jiang had the dessert, he became sleepy, so Jiang Qi helped him to his bedroom and Yu Gangan sat next to him to check his pulse.
Before long, the old man fell asleep and Yu Gangan and Jiang Qi left quietly.
“Grandfather used to love spicy food; he couldn’t spend a day without spice. Yesterday, he asked the kitchen to prepare some spicy dishes, but when I told him he couldn’t eat it, he insisted that it was OK to eat a little bit. In the end, I couldn’t argue against him and I let him have a little. That should be fine, right?”
Jiang Qi looked at Yu Gangan nervously.
Technically, it was not recommended, but eating a little wouldn’t actually cause much of an impact. However, Yu Gangan deliberately frightened her, “No, his pulse is worse than last time. You need to stop him from eating spicy food from now on.”
Jiang Qi’s face turned pale and her eyes reddened, “But…Grandfather doesn’t listen to me. What should I do? Is it serious?”
Yu Gangan scared the little beauty so much, she was about to cry. Suddenly filled with guilt, Yu Gangan quickly said, “It’s not serious, you don’t have to worry about it. Just don’t spoil him from now on.”
Jiang Qi looked a little embarrassed, “Once grandfather makes a decision, the average person cannot change it.”
They had listened to her Grandfather since a young age. They respected him and did not dare to retaliate against him.
“You can’t allow that. You need to resist.”
“I will try my best.”
Yu Gangan went downstairs with her medicine box and told Jiang Qi not to see her off; she could catch a taxi home.
“No, I can’t allow that,” Jiang Qi said decisively. “Grandfather said he has to see you when he wakes up. Besides, my brother said he was coming to get you. Stay here and keep me company.”
“I see you taking care of your grandfather every day, but you look very young. Have you graduated yet?”
“I graduate next year, but I took some time off because Grandfather is sick. When he gets better, and after I attend your wedding with my brother, I will go back to continue with my studies.”
Jiang Qi tilted her head and chuckled with a teasing tone.
Yu Gangan almost forgot that this was Fang Zhihan’s sister. No matter how weak she was, she was still a sly little fox.
“I think I should leave.”
“No, no…” Jiang Qi suddenly grabbed onto her arm and said, “I got you a small gift when I was shopping two days ago. Sit down, have some tea and snacks, and I’ll go and get it for you.”
As Jiang Qi went up to get the gift, Yu Gangan leaned back in a rosewood chair. She took a sip of tea and saw several traditional Chinese medicine books under the coffee table. This included, ‘The Emperor’s Inner Classic’, ‘The Difficulties Classic’, ‘Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases’, ‘Shennong’s Herbal Classic’, etc, as well as several health books.
Yu Gangan ate a snack and flipped through a health book.
At that time, the door of the Jiang Family Home was pushed open. The housekeeper went to help and Jiang Baian walked in.
When he saw Yu Gangan sitting in the living room, his expression turned cold.
The housekeeper smiled and explained to Jiang Baian, “Young Master An, Dr. Yu is here to do a follow-up on Elder Jiang.”
Jiang Baian waved the housekeeper away and walked towards Yu Gangan. He then sat down opposite her.
His cold and dark eyes looked at Yu Gangan with strong hostility.
When he thought about the way that Yu Gangan scolded him and how Fang Zhihan made things difficult for him at Baifang Pharmaceuticals previously, he was tempted to kill the couple.
He leaned back in his rosewood chair, held a cigarette to his mouth and sneered, “How much money has Fang Zhihan given you to please the old man?”
