Huayu: I Have a Doraemon

Chapter 93 Sincerity is the Eternal Ultimate Weapon 2 (Please continue reading)

An old-fashioned fabric sofa sits across the living room, with a white crocheted lace scarf draped over its armrest.

On the coffee table was a set of purple clay teaware, next to which was a neat stack of "Aerospace Magazine".

Several photo frames stood on the TV cabinet, each containing a family portrait of the four of them.

Lin An sat in the middle of the sofa, his back straight, his hands resting on his knees, motionless.

He maintained that position for almost ten minutes.

Doraemon sat next to him, his hands on his knees, his round face tense.

Gao Yong sat on the side of the single sofa, holding a purple clay teapot in his hand, and was pouring tea into a cup.

At this moment, Gao Yuanyuan came out of the room at the end of the corridor, sat down to Lin An's left, and glanced at him.

The man had a stiff expression, his back was ramrod straight, and his hands were resting on his knees, like a statue.

Her face screamed "I want to die"... Gao Yuanyuan's lips curved into a smile, then she quickly pursed them, but her shoulders couldn't help but tremble slightly. Gao Yong was pushing the teacup he had just poured towards Lin An when he heard the sound and looked up, his gaze lingering on his sister's face for a second: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing..." Gao Yuanyuan waved her hands repeatedly, pointing towards the kitchen, "Go cut some fruit."

Gao Yong blinked, puzzled, and asked, "Isn't Auntie cutting it?"

Gao Yuanyuan clicked her tongue and pinched his arm.

Gao Yong winced in pain, gasped, and realized what was happening, but he didn't really want to leave.

"Hey, hurry up!" Gao Yuanyuan urged impatiently.

Gao Yong pouted reluctantly, stood up, and glared down at Lin An.

The warning is palpable.

Lin An pretended not to see it, his gaze fixed on the cover of the "Aerospace Magazine" on the coffee table.

Gao Yong snorted and walked slowly toward the kitchen.

Gao Yuanyuan watched her older brother's figure disappear through the kitchen doorway before turning around, crossing her legs, and looking at Lin An with a half-smile: "Didn't someone go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau?"

Lin An swallowed hard and said dryly, "Going to the Industry and Commerce Bureau and coming to your house are not mutually exclusive."

Gao Yuanyuan chuckled and then asked, "So, may I ask what brings you to my house?"

Lin An was silent for a few seconds, then turned his head and looked at her sincerely: "If I said I just happened to be passing by, would you believe me?"

Gao Yuanyuan glanced at him and asked, "What do you think?"

I think it's possible... Lin An started brainstorming, trying to find a plausible excuse.

Lost? Too fake. Looking for someone? Who? Missing you? Too frivolous.

One reason after another popped into his mind, only to be rejected by him one by one.

Doraemon, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and said directly, "Sister Yuanyuan, we're here to deliver medicine."

Gao Yuanyuan was taken aback. "Delivering medicine?"

"Um.

"Doraemon nodded, ignoring Lin An's desperate winks beside him, and reached into his pocket with his round hand, pulling out a transparent glass medicine bottle containing three round white pills.

He handed the medicine bottle over from a distance, explaining, "This is a highly effective medicine for respiratory diseases."

Lin An closed his eyes in despair.

Gao Yuanyuan took the medicine bottle, looked down at it, then looked up, her gaze shifting between Doraemon and Lin An.

Her eyes were red-rimmed, and her voice was slightly hoarse as she asked, "You... you went back to Beijing just for this?"

When Lin An opened his eyes and saw her like this, all the anxiety and tension he had been building up for the day instantly dissipated.

His shoulders slumped, and he sighed deeply.

I guess so.

"However, it is also true that my company needs to open an account."

"I didn't mean anything by it, I just hope to cure your mother so that you can leave Beijing with peace of mind and join the film crew to make movies."

Lin An paused for a moment, then looked at Gao Yuanyuan's face, his tone becoming more complicated than ever before: "This medicine is very effective; I've taken it before. Besides treating illnesses, it also strengthens the body."

Gao Yuanyuan's lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she was interrupted by Lin An's next words.

"I know that different people have different constitutions, so the effects of medication will definitely vary."

He said self-deprecatingly, "I can't guarantee that this medicine will cure your mother's illness. I can't even guarantee its absolute safety."

He took a deep breath, putting away all his cynicism, and said, word by word, "However, I absolutely did not mean to harm anyone. If you don't believe me, I can eat a piece right here."

Gao Yuanyuan gripped the medicine bottle tightly, her knuckles turning white, and stared at Lin An for a long time.

"You..."

"7

She sighed, about to say something, when two deliberate coughs came from the kitchen doorway.

Gao Yong had been standing there for some time now.

He looked at Zong An, then tilted his head towards the corridor: "You, take your medicine and come with me to the study."

Gao Yuanyuan was taken aback and was about to speak when Lin An stood up first and nodded, saying, "Okay."

The study is located opposite the second bedroom.

The door was half open.

Gao Yong walked to the bookshelf, crossed his arms in front of his abdomen, and looked at Lin An.

Lin An stood in front of the desk and closed the door.

The room was silent for a few seconds.

Gao Yong's gaze fell on the medicine bottle in his hand, paused for two seconds, and then looked at his face: "May I take a look?"

Lin An nodded and tossed the medicine bottle over.

Gao Yong caught the medicine bottle, glanced at Lin An, and then looked down at the medicine bottle in his hand.

A clear glass bottle, white pills, semi-matte surface... no label, no production date, and no country of origin information.

He opened the medicine bottle, poured out a tablet, gently pinched it with his hand, and then smelled it.

The tablet was rather hard and had a slight minty flavor; it was probably a sustained-release tablet... Gao Yong put the tablet back into the bottle, tightened the cap, looked up at Lin An, and asked, "Do you know the ingredients of this medicine?"

Lin An shook his head.

"What about the research and development institutions?"

Lin An continued to shake his head.

"You must have a research paper, right?"

Lin An shook his head again.

Gao Yong's breathing deepened, and he said with a mixture of anger and amusement, "If it were you, and someone prescribed this kind of medicine of unknown origin, ingredients, and effects for your seriously ill mother, how would you react?"

Lin An thought for a moment and said, "I'll hang that guy up and beat him, then stuff the umbrella tip into his anus and press the switch."

Well, it's not that bad... Gao Yong's expression was a little unnatural, and he subconsciously shifted his buttocks.

He coughed, forcibly suppressing his discomfort, and put on a serious face again.

"Since you already know..."

He pushed the medicine bottle towards Lin An, "Then take your medicine and go."

Lin An looked down at the medicine bottle that had been pushed towards him, but did not reach out.

Gao Yong straightened up, his tone calm but leaving no room for negotiation: "As a son, I will not and cannot use my mother as an experimental subject."

Lin An looked up: "Even if I'm willing to take this medicine first, it's not allowed?"

"You just said it yourself, everyone's constitution is different."

Gao Yong said calmly, "My mother is a seriously ill patient, and her physical functions are nowhere near yours. Let alone this kind of medicine of unknown origin, even if it is a special medicine from a regular hospital, we will compare prices from several sources."

After listening, Lin An remained silent for a long time.

After a long pause, he sighed and said, "You're right, I was just being presumptuous."

Gao Yong's tense shoulders relaxed slightly.

Just as he was about to say something, a weak voice came from next door: "Since you're here, accept the medicine."

The voice wasn't loud, it was breathless, and each word seemed to be squeezed out of the chest with great effort.

Gao Yong's expression changed drastically.

Lin An also froze on the spot, subconsciously looking towards the door.
