When the female supporting role has a beauty system
Chapter 1121 Shengnan 53
Chapter 1121 Shengnan 53
When they came out to pay the bill after lunch, He Zechuan was behind the counter. He handed Jiang Shengnan a membership card: "Sister, come again if you like it."
"Okay, I'll bring my friends next time." Jiang Shengnan took the membership card and glanced at He Zechuan: "Take care from now on."
“Mm,” He Zechuan smiled and looked down, “Sister, you take good care of yourself too.”
Even though he still felt a pang of jealousy, Jin Jue understood now, seeing He Zechuan's attitude towards Jiang Shengnan. It seemed he truly had no feelings for Jiang Shengnan. Could it be that he really considered her a sister?
Anyway, this is a good thing.
Zheng family.
In the living room,
Jiang Shengnan sat to Zheng Lao's right. While he was taking her pulse, her gaze unconsciously fell on Zheng Lao's face. It is said that the older a Chinese medicine doctor is, the more sought-after he becomes. She never expected to actually meet an old Chinese medicine doctor.
Looking at Old Zheng, whose hair and beard were all white but whose complexion was rosy, Jiang Shengnan couldn't help but pass on the message to Tan You: "This old man has a secret to maintaining his youthful appearance; he truly lives up to the saying 'white hair and youthful face.'"
Tan You laughed and said, "This old man Zheng's method of preserving youth is indeed unique, but what are you envious of? Your beauty stats have been maxed out, and your aging speed is much slower than that of your peers."
Jiang Shengnan immediately smiled; her emotions were directly reflected in her pulse. Old Zheng glanced at Jiang Shengnan before withdrawing his hand. He didn't speak, just stared at Jiang Shengnan.
Since it concerned Jiang Shengnan's health, Jin Jue naturally couldn't remain calm. He looked anxiously at Old Zheng: "Old Zheng, how is Nannan's health? She looks so haggard these past two weeks."
"I even fainted and was hospitalized before because of heart pain."
“This is a mental illness,” Old Zheng said, glancing at the impatient Jin Jue and then at Jiang Shengnan. “Overthinking and experiencing great grief and pain will naturally take a toll on her body.”
Jiang Shengnan knew this would be the result. She knew why she looked haggard, but these were not things she could completely let go of in a short time. The negative emotions of sadness and grief would not disappear immediately. She couldn't be completely carefree after all.
Jin Jue said anxiously, "Is there anything we can do? She hasn't been sleeping well lately; she's always having insomnia and vivid dreams."
Old Zheng raised his snow-white eyebrows, his gaze sweeping over Jiang Shengnan. "Are the two of them this familiar already? Does Jin Jue even know about such a private matter?"
Jiang Shengnan shook his head helplessly: "Old Zheng, it's not as exaggerated as he said. I know it's a psychological problem, and I'll gradually get over it over time. It's just that I haven't been sleeping well lately, I always have nightmares, and I can't fall back asleep after waking up."
Old Zheng nodded: "It's good that you understand. Try to think positively and take care of yourself. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Take it for a week, and I'll take another look at you after a week."
Jiang Shengnan agreed, "Then I'll trouble you, sir."
Old Zheng nodded slightly: "Jin Jue, your grandfather was telling me yesterday..."
Hearing that Old Zheng had something to say to Jin Jue, Jiang Shengnan made an excuse to stroll around Old Zheng's garden. There was a swing set up in the garden, and Jiang Shengnan, unusually, became interested and sat on the swing, swaying back and forth.
A corner of the living room faced the garden. Jin Jue looked up and saw Jiang Shengnan sitting on the swing. Perhaps because she was in a good mood, that dimple that Jin Jue had been eyeing reappeared. Jin Jue stared at Jiang Shengnan and became lost in thought.
Old Zheng cleared his throat: "Be more reserved. I've never seen you so eager before."
“I hadn’t met anyone I truly liked before,” Jin Jue said reluctantly, turning his gaze away. “But after meeting her, I felt incredibly powerless. She has everything, lacks nothing, and doesn’t want anything from me. On the contrary, I’m the one who’s after so much.” “I can see that,” Old Zheng said, taking a sip of tea and glancing at Jiang Shengnan. “This girl is quite good, quite pure. You’re lucky to have her.”
“I know,” Jin Jue said with a wry smile, “A virtuous, wealthy, and beautiful woman, talented, capable, resourceful, gentle, and affectionate, is indeed someone I’m marrying above my station. But the swan meat is right in front of me, and I won’t be satisfied if I don’t give it a try.”
Old Zheng nodded at her: "She's thoughtful and prone to overthinking, as you've noticed. I don't need to teach you how to get along with her. But just one thing: keep yourself in check and don't bring your past to her attention."
Jin Jue looked somewhat embarrassed: "I understand."
“Your grandfather would be very happy if he knew you’ve settled down.” Old Zheng smiled and said, “How did you end up meeting a girl like her? I have a grandson who’s about the same age as her.”
"If that girl doesn't like you, I'll introduce her to my grandson..."
Jin Jue immediately stood up: "Mr. Zheng, we'll head back now and come see you again next week."
Watching Jin Jue's hurried departure, Old Zheng's lips curled into a smile, feeling pleased. He deserved a bit of pressure. Little did he know that Jin Jue already had enough pressure already, starting with that high school classmate who appeared out of nowhere.
Then there was He Zechuan, the cute little puppy she met today, and now Old Master Zheng's grandson. Jin Jue hadn't forgotten that Old Master Zheng had three grandsons, none of whom were married, and all of them were about the same age as Jiang Shengnan.
He had no doubt about Jiang Shengnan's charm. A stunning beauty like Jiang Shengnan was not only captivating, but the more time he spent with her, the more he discovered her allure.
Take myself for example. I used to be a playboy, but after meeting her, she didn't do anything, and I immediately settled down. Now I'm desperately following Jiang Shengnan around, but she just ignores me.
Sure enough, it was all retribution, and his retribution was Jiang Shengnan.
In the garden, Jiang Shengnan lightly touched the paving stones with her toes as the swing gently swayed. She leaned back in the swing chair, looking up at the white clouds in the sky. The afternoon sun fell on her face, and at that moment, Jiang Shengnan seemed as if she were about to ride the wind away.
Jin Jue stood beside her, carrying a bag of medicine: "Do you know how to decoct medicine?"
Jiang Shengnan shook her head honestly. Jin Jue looked at her slightly upturned face and twitched his left finger: "Then let's go to the pharmacy. They can prepare the decoction for you. You can just heat it up at home and drink it."
Jiang Shengnan felt a chill run down her spine at his insistence on spending more time with her. She wanted to refuse, but remembering Jin Jun's words about using and discarding things, she hesitated.
The person brought her to see the senior doctor, and then she ignored everyone else. It seems like she has no conscience.
"Fine, what's one more lice than a problem," Jiang Shengnan said, no longer dwelling on it. "Then I'll trouble you. I really don't know anything about these things."
Jin Jue was slightly surprised, not expecting Jiang Shengnan to not reject him this time. This was good news, and Jin Jue immediately felt energized again.
He may lack other qualities, but he never lacks self-confidence.
