488 Do It by Force
The old and simple cupboard had been cleaned by Jiang Yue, but the plates and other things were washed and dried before they were placed in piles into the cupboard.
After doing all this, Xue Yan wanted to go into Shao Shuting’s room again.
Jiang Yue followed him.
When Shao Shuting saw them coming, he immediately buried his face in the pillow again. There was also a small bowl of medicine beside him. The medicine had almost cooled down and could be drunk long ago.
When they realized that Shao Shuting was still resisting, Xue Yan looked at Jiang Yue, “How about I go back and get some candy?”
He had already been saved, so they couldn’t just leave him be. If he couldn’t be saved, someone else would definitely save him.
Jiang Yue thought about how Shao Shuting wanted to pour the medicine out, and decided that she didn’t want to spoil this great general. “No need.”
Then what should he do? Xue Yan asked with his eyes.
Jiang Yue didn’t answer. She walked to the bed and said emotionlessly, “Don’t force me to force you to drink.”
Xue Yan was speechless.
Shao Shuting immediately raised his head from the pillow and looked at the little girl in front of him in disbelief. “Why are you acting like my father?!”
His father would also force him to drink medicine whenever he didn’t want to drink it.
That was inhumane!
Jiang Yue didn’t care whether he was shocked or not. She took the small bowl of medicine on the side and held it in front of Shao Shuting.
Shao Shuting’s face was filled with pain.
“Hmm.” Xue Yan couldn’t help but cough. In his past life, when he met Shao Shuting, Shao Shuting was already in his forties. Although he was gentle and slender, he had a domineering and brave aura around him. To be honest, he really couldn’t connect the Shao Shuting he knew in his past life with the Shao Shuting he knew now.
Was Shao Shuting actually like this in private?
Shao Shuting struggled for a while before he took the bowl of medicine. He didn’t drink it, but looked at the beam helplessly, “The world is against me…”
Xue Yan and Jiang Yue were speechless.
Then, Shao Shuting completely gave up struggling and put the bowl back. “You’d better force me to drink. My father is like this too. Otherwise, I really can’t drink it.”
What was wrong with him?
Shao Shuting tilted his head and looked at her.
Jiang Yue was silent for a while before she picked up the bowl of medicine and poured it down the man’s throat like an emotionless machine.
Her actions were clean and neat.
Shao Shuting’s bitter face was scrunched up, and he looked like he was in extreme pain. However, he still laughed quite happily the moment it was over. “I didn’t expect you to be faster than my father. Then next time you’ll do the same, right?”
Xue Yan was silent for a long time.
Jiang Yue didn’t care about Shao Shuting anymore. She took the bowl out and washed it.
When Xue Yan wanted to leave, Shao Shuting stopped him and asked, “You’ve been to school, so you should still have pen and paper at home, right?”
“Do you want to write something?”
“Smart boy.” Shao Shuting praised. “I want to write a letter to inform my people that I’m safe. I’ll have to trouble you to find a way to send it to Quanping Inn in town”
“Okay.” Xue Yan responded and went out.
As long as he reported his safety and knew that Shao Shuting was here, someone would definitely come to take him away.
Shao Shuting had 200,000 soldiers in the southern battlefront army, so it was better not to have too much contact with such a person. Today was truly an unfortunate accident.
Xue Yan brought a brush, ink, paper, and an inkstone from home and put them in front of Shao Shuting.
