Chapter 2008: Treating The Injuries (3)
The pill from the Divine Lord must be very effective. However, he had given this to his son to keep him safe.
"About the tablet, how many do you have?" Gu Xijiu wanted to know.
"One. Why?"
"If you give it to me now, what if you need it in the future?"
"Donโt worry. I am sure that that day will never come. Stop talking nonsense. Eat it now!" Di Fuyi was unusually confident. He put the tablet into her mouth and demanded, "Be good. Take the pill."
His tone was as familiar as ever. Gu Xijiu was amused and at the same time felt a bit bitter. However, she did not reject his offer this time; she ingested the tablet. The tablet smelled nice but tasted bad. Gu Xijiuโs face wrinkled in an ungainly fashion. She took a while to swallow it. By that time, her tongue was already numb from the bad taste.
Di Fuyi took out another sweet and put it into her mouth. "It will help soothe the taste." The sweetness finally suppressed the bad taste that lingered at the tip of on her tongue. It was the taste of her favorite sweet- maple sugar. She finally felt better.
She looked at him in disbelief. She had certainly not expected that he would prepare everything so thoughtfully. Perhaps it was because he was still young; every child fancied sweets. What surprised her more was that they both shared the same tastes.
