The Sweetest Medicine

Jiang Qi froze for a moment before she shook her head, “N-No. Earlier on, I was a bit cold to her, so it’s only normal that she was unhappy about it.”

Yu Gangan patted her on the shoulder, “Don’t mind her. She’s not important.”

Jiang Qi pursed her lips and nodded her head.

“OK, hurry and have a shower. Let’s go to the hot spring together.”

“Uh huh.”

Jiang Qi nodded again. But, after Yu Gangan left, she couldn’t help but cry again. After a bit of crying, she grabbed her towel and entered the bathroom.

…

The design of the hot spring behind the courtyard was very clever. It was hidden in the plum blossom forest and there were various steamy hot spring pools. The heat spread in the air maintaining the warmth of the back garden between 10-20 degrees celsius.

As soon as they stepped into the back garden, the plum blossoms looked elegant and the fragrance was enchanting.

Between the petal hot spring and the milk hot spring, Yu Gangan and Jiang Qi chose the latter.

Steam rose from the milky white hot spring water.

After testing the water temperature, Yu Gangan and Jiang Qi helped each other into the pool.

The temperature was pleasant. After soaking in the water, all the fatigue in their bodies melted away. In an instant, it felt like their souls had separated from their bodies. It was so comfortable that they couldn’t help but sigh with satisfaction.

“So comfortable,” Yu Gangan whispered as she closed her eyes.

“We can soak in the milk for a while, it will make our skin really smooth,” Jiang Qi giggled as she waded through the pool, exercising her arms and legs.

Lin Jiayu couldn’t use the hot spring, but there was a small foot spa beside them, so Lin Jiayu sat there soaking her feet as she spoke to Yu Gangan.

The three hot springs in the plum blossom forest were separated by a certain distance.

No too far away, in the normal hot spring, Lu Xuechen and He Shigui were soaking amongst the mist.

On the edge of the hot spring, there was a bottle of red wine and pastries. He Shigui closed his eyes to enjoy the comfortable experience while Lu Xuechen lay there with a glass of red wine in one hand and his phone in the other, chatting to Lin Jiayu.

Both looked very comfortable.

“If you’re not soaking in the hot spring, then go back, don’t hurt my son.”

Lin Jiayu’s phone was a little loud, so Yu Gangan overheard these words and laughed, “The two of you seem to be progressing well. He’s already acknowledged your son as his.”

“I don’t know what’s wrong with him. Do you think he has an ulterior motive?” Lin Jiayu said dejectedly.

Yu Gangan shook her head, “I’m not sure. I can’t even begin to guess. But, I can ask Fang Zhihan to take a guess.”

A women’s heart was hard to predict, but a man’s heart wasn’t, right?

“Lin Jiayu, come here,” Lu Xuechen’s voice resounded over the phone again.

Lin Jiayu wanted to ignore him, so she immediately hung up.

Yu Gangan smiled, “You should go check on him. Maybe it’s something urgent.”

Lin Jiayu hesitated for a moment before she stood up, put on her shoes and walked over to the hot spring where Lu Xuechen was, “What’s the matter?”

Through the swirling steam, the delicate and beautiful woman made one fantasize.

Lu Xuechen’s eyes subconsciously softened, “Help me scrub my back.”

Lin Jiayu narrowed her eyes and asked, “How could you ask a pregnant woman to help you?”

“You help me scrub my back, and I’ll help you scrub your entire body.”

The greasy words made Lin Jiayu frown. She subconsciously glanced at He Shigui who was sitting on the opposite side. Fortunately, the pool was quite big and they couldn’t hear each other’s conversations. Otherwise, how embarrassing would it be if he heard?
