Warm medicine emits fragrance

Fan Liuer was stunned for a moment, then felt a flutter in her heart.

She knew very well that the reason Li Chenbi chose her was because of her constitution.

Therefore, she never thought that Li Chenbi would find a doctor to treat her, after all, he was the biggest beneficiary of her constitution.

Hugging a human-shaped ice cube is definitely more comfortable than hugging a real ice cube.

Therefore, she secretly repented in her heart for having cursed Li Chenbi in the past.

This person isn't actually that petty.

"Please sit down, Madam Fan. Let me take your pulse first."

Fan Liuer sat down as the doctor instructed, placing her hands on the cushion.

The process of taking Li Chenbi's pulse was not short, and during this time Fan Liu'er would glance at Li Chenbi from time to time.

But his attention was entirely on the doctor, and he didn't even glance at Fan Liuer.

Fan Liuer immediately realized that she had been too obsequious and reluctantly looked away.

Fan Liuer had little hope for her illness. Over the years, she had seen many doctors, and every one of them gave the same explanation.

Sure enough, after taking her pulse, the doctor withdrew his hand, shook his head, and said, "Madam Fan's cold ailment is truly rare; I apologize for my inability to help."

Li Chenbi didn't have much hope, after all, there was no cure for his fever.

"Is there any way to alleviate this?"

The doctor pondered for a moment and glanced at Fan Liuer.

Li Chenbi understood his meaning and said to Fan Liuer, "You can go down now."

Fan Liuer didn't want to leave. Was there anything that a patient like her couldn't hear?

She looked at Li Chenbi, her eyes conveying a clear meaning.

Li Chenbi thought about it and agreed; she was the patient, so it wouldn't hurt to let her listen.

"Please speak frankly, doctor."

The doctor felt somewhat embarrassed at the thought of what he was about to say.

After clearing his throat, he composed himself. "Madam Fan's constitution is too cold and yin. Ordinary tonics won't have much effect on her, and her body can't handle anything too strong."

"How about I take the medicine instead?" Li Chenbi suggested.

The doctor shook his head. "It won't have much effect. Even if it does, the medicinal properties will be reduced, so it's better not to drink it at all."

Li Chenbi's expression darkened. "What was the method the doctor was about to mention?"

The doctor sighed and then slowly said, "Second Master, we still need your help with this method."

"Your constitution is the exact opposite of Madam Fan's. Your... um... um... it's different from that of ordinary men. So, for Madam Fan, although we can't completely cure her coldness, we can alleviate it somewhat over time."

Li Chenbi felt like he understood, but also like he didn't.

Fan Liuer, however, immediately misunderstood.

What's that?

What?

It can't be that, right? What do we do with that? Cut it up and boil it into medicine?

Well... there's only one, right? Once it's cut off, it's gone. It won't grow back, so how can it last?

Besides, Li Chenbi wouldn't castrate himself for her.

"No, no, how can this be? Second Master is not married yet and has no children. If I do this, wouldn't I become a sinner?" She quickly refused to avoid making him unhappy and implicating her.

Li Chenbi narrowed his eyes slightly, and upon hearing this, he knew what kind of nonsense was going on in this person's mind.

Although he didn't quite understand, he knew that the doctor couldn't possibly be referring to that thing.

Even if it were truly curable, the doctor wouldn't dare say so.

"Fan Liuer." Li Chenbi looked at her with a stern face.

Fan Liuer looked completely innocent. "Second Master, I refused."

Li Chenbi took a deep breath. "Don't say anything yet."

Fan Liuer obediently shut up.

Seeing that she had misunderstood, the doctor quickly explained, "What I meant was that you two don't need to use contraception when you have sex."

Li Chenbi understood immediately and nodded to indicate that he comprehended.

Fan Liuer took a moment to react before realizing what was happening. Forgetting all about blushing, she panicked and said, "No, no, no, I can't get pregnant with Second Master's child."

If she gets pregnant, how will she ever be able to leave? She's not even a concubine, and she'll give birth to a child without any status or recognition, especially since it happened before Li Chenbi was married. Wouldn't her future be incredibly miserable?

You absolutely must not get pregnant with this child.

"Can't I drink contraceptive soup?" she asked anxiously.

The doctor shook his head. "The contraceptive decoction uses only cold-natured herbs. Even ordinary women would harm their health if they drank too much of it, let alone you who already suffers from coldness."

Fan Liuer pursed her lips, looking at Li Chenbi with a clear meaning in her eyes.

The text read: Let's end this here.

Li Chenbi was furious, and his voice became deep.

"Fan Liuer, what kind of shameful thing is my child, Li Chenbi's child, that you resist it so much?"

Fan Liuer said aggrievedly, "Second Master, but we made a promise."

"Who said anything to you? I never said you couldn't have children."

Fan Liuer blushed at his shameless words and, no longer afraid of angering him, stood up abruptly.

"How can you be so unreasonable!"

Li Chenbi also stood up, his taller figure immediately overshadowing Fan Liuer's imposing manner.

"I'm unreasonable? I think you're the one who doesn't know what's good for you, Fan Liuer. How have I ever wronged you? Go out and ask around, what man has such a good temper as me and is willing to indulge your unreasonable demands?"

"You have a good temper? You really have no self-awareness at all. It's one thing to be petty, but you get angry at the drop of a hat and are unpredictable. Where is your good temper!" Fan Liu'er was also furious and spoke without restraint, blurting out what was on her mind.

Li Chenbi was amused by her words. "Fine, so that's what you think of me, is that it? Fine, since you've already confirmed my petty nature, I don't need to put up with you anymore. This is my decision, and you have to agree whether you like it or not!"

"Why should I?! I didn't sell myself to the Li family. I'm a free citizen! I'll just quit!"

After Fan Liuer finished speaking, she turned her head and was about to leave.

She had just taken a step when a loud crash came from behind her, startling her so much that she turned around abruptly and met a pair of eyes filled with anger.

The chair that had been kicked over was at Li Chenbi's feet. He stared at Fan Liuer, his gloomy face filled with a terrifying ferocity.

Fan Liuer had heard that Li Chenbi had a bad temper, but this was the first time she had ever seen him lose his temper, and she immediately became a little scared.

Li Chenbi strode towards her, his gaze fixed on her like a knife.

"If you dare to take a single step out of here today, I'll break your legs." He stopped in front of Fan Liuer and spoke each word clearly, his tone even more chilling than the cold air in the room.

The doctor was taken aback by the sudden argument between the two. Only now did he come to his senses and quickly advised, "Please stop arguing. Madam Fan has a cold constitution and cannot conceive. There's no need to argue about this."

Upon hearing this, Fan Liuer was no longer angry or afraid; she was simply heartbroken.

"What? I can't get pregnant?"
