Aunt Dong said, "I'll go open the door."

She wiped her hands, went to the door, and opened it.

Zhou Yi looked away and started playing with the little guy using the toys.

The little one was very happy, babbling and moving his little hands around the toy.

"gentlemen."

Aunt Dong's voice came through.

Upon hearing the voice, Zhou Yi's eyes flashed with surprise as she looked towards the door.

A tall, upright man wearing casual sportswear entered from outside, with obvious sweat on his forehead and neck.

He had clearly just returned from his morning exercise.

Zhou Yi knew that her husband had a good habit of exercising in the morning, but he went to bed very late last night, so she thought he would get up a little later this morning.

I didn't expect my husband to get up so early and even go for a morning exercise.

As soon as Aunt Dong spoke, Wenren Chen hummed in agreement and came in from outside carrying his things.

Zhou Yi immediately said to the little one, "Yu Yu, Daddy's back."

Actually, the little guy had looked over with wide eyes after hearing Aunt Dong speak, and now that Zhou Yi was speaking, he looked back with wide eyes, waving his toys around and shouting, "Ya ya~ ya ya~"

Zhou Yi smiled, carrying the little one as she walked towards Wenren Chen.

Good morning, sir.

Arriving in front of Wenren Chen, Zhou Yi held the little one and smiled sweetly at him.

The little one, nestled in Zhou Yi's arms, also grinned at the tall man.

Wenren Chen gazed at the two smiling faces, one big and one small, which seemed to be mixed with the fragrance of flowers and honey in the fresh morning air, intoxicatingly sweet.

Open your lips: "Drink the medicine."

He placed the thermos he was carrying on the bar counter.

Zhou Yi was taken aback, then quickly remembered what the doctor had said last night, and immediately nodded: "Okay, sir."

"Medicine? Miss Zhou, are you sick?"

Aunt Dong closed the door and came in, and heard Wenren Chen's words. She immediately looked at Zhou Yi, her eyes filled with surprise and worry.

Zhou Yi shook her head: "No, it's just that my heart fire is a bit too strong. The doctor said that drinking some Chinese medicine will help."

"So that's it."

"It's probably because the weather is too hot and dry."

"Yes."

"Aunt Dong, could you please hold Yuyu for a moment? I'm going to take my medicine."

"Ok."

Aunt Dong came over and took the little one away. Zhou Yi said to the little one, "Yu Yu, Grandma Dong will hold you for a bit first. Aunt Zhou Yi will take her medicine first, and then she will hold you."

The little guy didn't know what medicine was; he looked at the thermos with curiosity in his big eyes.

Upon hearing Zhou Yi's words, he looked at Zhou Yi and his little mouth moved, "Ya ya~ ya ya~"

Zhou Yi smiled at the little guy and took the medicine out of the thermos.

The medicines were all divided up and packed into small boxes.

Zhou Yi took out a box and opened it. Instantly, a bitter smell wafted out of the box.

She frowned instantly.

The little guy smelled it too, and his little body shifted restlessly, his little face scrunched up.

Aunt Dong looked at the dark medicine in the small box. She could smell the bitterness, and she had also taken Chinese medicine before, so she knew how bitter it was.

Seeing Zhou Yi's furrowed brows, he said, "Miss Zhou, this medicine is probably very bitter. Why don't you go and buy some sugar first?"

They are old, so they don't mind the bitter taste of the medicine.

However, young people don't really like drinking Chinese medicine because they can't stand its bitter taste.

If you eat a piece of candy immediately after drinking Chinese medicine, it will help a lot.

Zhou Yi shook her head: "It's okay, just drink it like this."

After saying that, she picked up the box and gulped it down her throat without hesitation.

Aunt Dong was stunned when she saw Zhou Yi's movements were so swift, as if he were drinking water, or even faster.

This was the first time she had ever seen a young person drink Chinese medicine so readily and decisively.

Zhou Yi quickly finished drinking, immediately put the small box on the bar, and then closed her eyes tightly, her body tense, and her small hands clenched into fists.

"Aunt Dong, go buy some candy."

After placing the Chinese medicine on the bar, Wenren Chen took a bottle of water from the refrigerator and opened it to drink.

At that moment, looking at the person whose face had turned completely pale with pain, he spoke up.

Upon hearing Wenren Chen's words, Aunt Dong replied, "Yes, sir."

Give the little guy to Wenren Chen.

Wenren Chen put the cap back on the mineral water bottle and took the little guy.

At this moment, Zhou Yi had already opened his eyes, swallowed the bitter taste in his mouth, and frowned as he said, "It's alright, sir. Chinese medicine is naturally bitter."

This is normal.

Besides, this isn't her first time taking Chinese medicine, so she'll be fine.

It will be fine in a moment.

Aunt Dong had already gone outside, completely ignoring Zhou Yi's words.

Wenren Chen held the little one, looking at the bitter face without a trace of a smile, and said, "Go rinse your mouth."

"what……"

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, then immediately covered her lips: "I'm going right now!"

After saying that, he hurriedly ran into the washroom.

Her breath smelled of medicine, and her voice smelled of medicine; it would bother Mr. and Yu Yu.

The little guy, nestled in Wenren Chen's arms, watched Zhou Yi cover her mouth and run away quickly until she disappeared from sight. His big eyes remained fixed on the bathroom door as it closed, and then there was no more movement inside.

A moment later, he moved his little mouth: "Ya ya~ ya ya~"

I don't know what he's saying, but looking at his little face, he's not smiling; instead, he seems uneasy.

He seemed to be worried about Zhou Yi.

Wenren Chen stared at the obviously uneasy little face, picked up the little guy and sat on the sofa, taking the toy from the little guy's hand and waving it in front of him.

The toy is a handheld rattle with cute little animals hanging from it. Inside each animal is a small bell, which makes a clear and pleasant sound when shaken.

The little one heard the voice, looked at Wenren Chen, and then said, "Ya ya~ ya ya~"

He didn't look at the toys at all; instead, he looked at the bathroom.

While looking at the restroom, she kept saying, "Yay~ Yay~"

The little body moved around in Wenren Chen's arms.

It seems that he should go and see, and Wenren Chen should go and see as well.

Wenren Chen stopped ringing the bell. He looked at the little face that seemed to say he wanted to find Zhou Yi. After a few moments, he put down the bell, picked up the little guy, and went outside the washroom.
