After Jiang Jingchen reasoned with his little wife, he asked her who the man who gave her flowers at the school gate was.

Tang Beibei explained, “He’s Senior Bai Qian. I met him when I attended the medical conference. He’s Professor Chen’s friend’s student. I don’t know him well.”

“I was wondering why he gave me flowers and roses at that. Roses are so expensive. He’s really willing to spend money.”

Jiang Jingchen glanced at her, held back his laughter and asked, “What should sensible flowers be like?”

Tang Beibei explained seriously, “Small and exquisite, simple and elegant, and

very cheap. It’s best if they are free.”

“For example?”

Tang Beibei looked out the car window and asked him to park the car by the roadside. She wanted to get out of the car.

Puzzled, Jiang Jingchen got out of the car to see what she was up to. He saw her holding a bunch of colorful wildflowers and saying with a bright smile,

“Hubby, these are for you.”

“What are these?”

Tang Beibei began to introduce the flowers. “Purple dead nettle is ornamental and tough. It greens up very early and blooms earlier than winter jasmines. It can clear heat, detoxify the body and reduce swelling.”

Tang Beibei pointed at the white shepherd’s purse. “Its petals are small and delicate. Don’t look at how small it is, it has a high medicinal value. You can even put them in wonton filling.”

“This is blue cohosh or Caulophyllum Thalictroides. The flowers and leaves are very delicate, but they have high medicinal value. It can replenish Qi, eliminate phlegm, and prevent malaria.”

-And this is poisonous butter cup, and henbit dead nettle before it blooms,

and…”

“Alright, alright, I like them very much.”

If she continued, she would probably introduce the entire “Compendium of

Materia Medica” to him.

He took the flowers and smelled them.

They smelled very light, fresh, and natural.

Perhaps because the flowers were all very small, the green leaves that accompanied them made the bouquet look very unusual.

The most interesting thing was that this woman was reluctant to pluck the flowers. She pulled out the entire plant, roots and all, and tied them together.

It was really unique.

He was probably the only person in the world who would receive such a

bouquet.

“Thank you for the flowers, little beauty. I don’t have anything to give you. How about I give myself to you?”

Tang Beibei smiled shyly. “It’s good that you don’t mind. Although these flowers are small and common, each of them is very precious. Many medicinal herbs need them as supplements.”

“Like the inability to win a battle with only a commander and no soldiers.

Jiang Jingchen lifted her chin and said in a low and magnetic voice, “Then you’ll be my commander, and I will be your soldier.”

“If there’s any battle, you deploy, and I’ll fight for you!’

Tang Beibei smiled and held his arm.

■■I’m just making an analogy. We are living in peace and prosperity. Where would there be any battles? Besides, it’s not good to fight.”

Jiang Jingchen couldn’t help but lower his head and kiss her. He laughed so hard that his chest shook. He was rarely so elated.

“If we don’t fight with others, let’s fight between ourselves.”

“Will my opponent then think about the moves that you can use to defeat me and make me submit to you?”

His flirting was always so unexpected that she was a little lost for words.

Tang Beibei went to the hospital to treat Madam Wu. Not long after she started, Qu Yiyi walked in saying hi to Tang Beibei before she looked around.

“Eh, why didn’t Fu Jin come today?”

Tang Beibei was puzzled. Fu Jin wasn’t treating her mother. “Why would he be here?”

Qu Yiyi laughed and pretended to make small talk.

“Don’t you guys dance together? I thought that he would be here with you.” Tang Beibei didn’t think too much about it and explained, “Fu Jin is usually very busy. I’m already troubling him letting him drive me to the hospital. I feel bad letting him drive me here every day.”

“Fu Jin has to study and manage the dance studio. He also mentioned that there are other businesses that he has to help out with from time to time.”

Qu Yiyi then asked, “Then what is Fu Jin usually busy with?”

Tang Beibei was confused. “That is Fu Jin’s private matter, so I didn’t ask. Miss

Qu seems to be very interested in Fu Jin.”

“No, no, I was just making small talk.”

Qu Yiyi waved her hand awkwardly and went to the side and started playing with her phone.

Madam Wu looked at her daughter and sighed. She couldn’t describe what she was feeling.

Tang Beibei said that Fu Jin was very busy and that it was very troublesome for him to accompany her every day.

But Tang Beibei was also very busy. She had to study and practice dance. Her heart ached when she heard that she didn’t even have much time to rest.

Her daughter was not grateful at all to her benefactor.

Tang Beibei heard Madam Wu sigh and patted her back.

“Madam Wu, are you feeling unwell?”

“No, Beibei, don’t worry.”

Tang Beibei, as a stranger, could feel that she was not in a good mood just by listening to her sigh. But her own daughter turned a blind eye to it and only cared about playing with her phone.

Only when she needed money did her mother become most important.

After the treatment, Tang Beibei said, “Madam Wu, Professor Chen told me that I can stop the treatment in five days. You’ll have to manage your own training later to keep at it.”

■■Ah, you’re not doing it anymore? But 1 still want to lose weight. I’ve been sleeping better since I lost weight.”

Tang Beibei comforted her with a smile. “You can’t lose weight forever. You need to maintain your weight for a period. Besides, it’s not suitable for you to undergo such treatment before, during or after your surgery.

Qu Yiyi said, “Then why don’t we just ask her doctor to delay her surgery? Mom is in much better spirits since she lost weight.”

“Beibei, when are you going to help me lose weight too? I think it’s so magical.” Tang Beibei glanced at her and smiled politely without saying anything. Professor Chen told her that she must inform the patient in advance before stopping treatment so that the patient could be mentally prepared.

Otherwise, the patient might not accept the sudden stoppage of treatment and resented her for it.

Professor Chen also told her that she needed some understanding of human behavior when dealing with patients. It was not that the patient was bad, but the physician neglected the patient’s emotions.

Tang Beibei didn’t understand these things yet, but she would listen to Professor Chen and learn slowly.

She had already told Madam Wu what she needed to tell her. If Madam Wu was obsessed with losing weight and delayed her surgery, it would be her fault.

She said goodbye to Madam Wu, packed her bag, and walked out. Qu Yiyi followed her out.

“Beibei, you’re going to the dance studio. Can I come along?

She didn’t go there directly last time because she was afraid of arousing Fu Jin’s disgust. This time, she wanted to use Tang Beibei as an excuse to see Fu Jin. Tang Beibei said, “Of course, you can come along, but there’s nothing much to see there. It’s boring.”

“It’s okay. I just want to watch you guys practice. I used to learn dance when I was young, but I gave it up, so I’d really like to watch you guys dance.”

“Oh.”

Tang Beibei didn’t know Miss Qu well, but she couldn’t stop her from going to the dance studio.

When she walked out of the hospital, she saw Jiang Jingchen walking leisurely with a bag towards her.

“Hubby!”

Qu Yiyi looked up and saw an extremely handsome man.

He was wearing a crisp suit and stood tall and straight. When she looked over, his gaze also fell in her direction.

Her little heart was thumping wildly.

Was this man looking at her?
