Chapter 142 We Are Just Friends (1/2)
A Miao stretched and turned her head. ”It would be strange if I didn't fall asleep in this environment!”
”Haha.” Jiang Quanyu put a tray with a bowl on the small and round table. ”Take some medicine.”
A strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine came to her nostrils. Even after more than a month of taking it, A Miao still had not gotten used to it.
”It smells bitter.” She covered her nose.
Jiang Quanyu took out a small jar from his pocket. ”Here, plum candy sweets!”
A Miao picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp, then put the sugar into her mouth with a wrinkled face.
”You also know that your condition. You will get used to it!” Jiang Quanyu handed her a paper towel.
Ever since A Miao had woken up, she had been very weak and was prone to a cold fever. After the consultation, several doctors suggested using traditional Chinese medicine to treat her disease slowly, and there were also some prescriptions that were helpful for uterine recovery.
The bullet had injured her uterus. If she could not recover, A Miao could never get pregnant in the future.
”Haha!” A Miao laughed at herself. ”When I was poor, I used to eat steamed bread and drink cold water in the winter. Even if I had a fever, I had to go out to work. But now I'm made of glass.”
Jiang Quanyu was grieved to see her like this. ”Don't talk nonsense. You are still young, you'll be able to recover!”
”Aren't you busy today?” Knowing that he was worried about her, A Miao took the initiative to change the subject.
”It's especially for you.” Jiang Quanyu looked at the snow outside the conservatory. ”The doctor said your body is not suitable here. I have a proposal, but I don't know if you will like it or not.”
At the S Group—
”Knock, knock!” Ding V knocked on the glass window outside.
Shen II hurriedly opened the window. This was the 30th floor...
”What's up?” Shen Xinglan was not surprised at Ding V's behavior.
Ding V jumped in. ”I saw A Miao.”
”Where?” Shen Xinglan suddenly stood up quickly.
A Miao listened to Jiang Quanyu's advice and went to his private island to support her body. The climate of the tropical island was helpful for her physical and mental recovery.
”It's a pity that I can't stay with you.” Jiang Quanyu accompanied her to sit by the sea. ”But I will try to come to see you once a month!”
A Miao looked at the big blue sky nearby and relaxed. ”No, you're busy! I am free when I'm alone!”
”Haha, is this the so-called kick down the ladder?” Jiang Quanyu smiled. ”By the way, I'll leave an old master here who can teach you to do tai chi and yoga. It's good for your health.”
A Miao suddenly stopped laughing and looked at him with some seriousness. ”Jiang Hua... No, Quanyu...”
”You may as well continue to call me Jiang Hua. I am used to it.” Jiang Quanyu interrupted her. ”I also know what you want to say. Don't worry, I know we are friends.”
What he said made A Miao feel even more ashamed. ”I owe you so much, how will I be able to repay it in the future...” She lowered her head guiltily and did not see Jiang Quanyu's eyes flash a meaningful glance.
”Aren't we friends?” Jiang Quanyu handed her some milk. ”Well, if you're really embarrassed, how about working for me when you're well?”
A Miao raised her head in surprise. ”Can I?”
”Of course!” Jiang Quanyu gave her a playful look. ”You are a brilliant student and a talented person!”
The next day, Jiang Quanyu arranged everything and left, while A Miao lived a very regular life. She got up every morning to eat breakfast prepared by a nutritionist, then went for a walk, followed by tai chi with the old master, then took a nap in the afternoon before going to yoga.
”Miss A Miao, your medicine!” Aunt Zhang was a stout, middle-aged woman, who cooked especially for A Miao.
A Miao grabbed it with a wrinkled face. ”Why do I feel like I just drank it!”
”Haha, that was all in the morning.” Aunt Zhang put a dish of plum candies on the table. ”Medicine that's good for your health tastes bitter, but you can bear it!”
”Aunt Zhang does not need to be so polite, just call me A Miao.” She drank the medicine all at once and then followed it up with the plum candy.
Aunt Zhang smiled and took the bowl back. ”OK! By the way, they saw the beluga whale on the south side of the island yesterday. If you have nothing to do, you can go and take a look.”
”A beluga whale?” A Miao said in surprise. ”No, beluga whales shouldn't be in this sea area during this season!”
So, after practicing yoga in the afternoon, she walked south along the sea. The island was not big. 10 minutes later, A Miao saw a shallow bay. There was really a jet of water coming up from the blue water.
”Oh my god!” She could not help running a few steps, and more than five meters away from the shore, she clearly saw a beluga whale swimming toward her under the sea.
A Miao quickly stepped back, and the beluga surfaced but did not swim to the shore.
”So smart! You also know that the water here is shallow,” said A Miao.
All of a sudden, A Miao felt as if someone was watching her. She suddenly turned around. The beach was empty, only she was there alone.
”Who's there?” Behind her was large coconut grove, from where she heard a rustling sound.
A Miao walked slowly toward the coconut grove. ”Is anyone there?” She stood beside a coconut tree and looked inside. The sea breeze was blowing and nothing was there.
”Am I nervous?” A Miao scratched her head and returned to the seaside.
The appearance of the beluga whale had made A Miao's life on the small island much more fun. She went to see it every afternoon. Even Aunt Zhang was amazed that the beluga whale came to visit once every afternoon as if it had agreed to do.
”Look, there it is!” Jiang Quanyu came to see her today, and A Miao specially led him to see the beluga whale.
