The old man was still frowning when he saw Tang Li standing by the door. He waved at her.
Tang Li walked up to him and called out, “Father.”
As his furrowed brows relaxed, he said, “If you want to go to Nation M, bring Tang Li with you.”
Tang Li thought to herself, “No, I’m not going.”
Qi Yihan, “Father, I’m going there for work. She’ll be bored if she goes over.”
Tang Li looked at Qi Yihan’s side face and saw that his face tensed up again. In her mind, she said, “I won’t go even if you beg me to.” She quickly nodded in agreement, saying, “Yes, I don’t like going overseas. I don’t feel at home.”
Wouldn’t it be nice to stay in this country to earn some money and build the island that was about to belong to her into a spiritual plant base? Why would she go overseas with a man who didn’t want to see her at all times?
Qi Yihan glanced at Tang Li, his face tight.
The old man got tired after a few words. Tang Li and Qi Yihan walked out of the ward together.
Qi Yihan asked, “What else do you need to treat my father’s illness?”
Tang Li tilted her head to look at him. Instead of answering, she asked, “You can get me anything I want?”
“As long as there is one in this world.”
“…”
She loved such a domineering executive!
Tang Li thought that since he said so, she might ask him for something good.
“I need… these medicinal herbs?”
Qi Yihan suddenly stopped and turned to look at her.
He didn’t know that Tang Li was right behind him. The moment he stopped and turned around, she bumped into his chest.
“Ouch!”
Startled, Tang Li took a step back and was about to fall as she lost her balance.
A large hand quickly wrapped around her waist and brought her back.
When their eyes met, they tensed up.
Suddenly, Qi Yihan let go of her.
Tang Li quickly took a step back and said, covering her slightly blushed face, “Why did you suddenly stop?”
Qi Yihan lowered his gaze and looked at her. His eyes flickered and he instinctively said, “Sorry.”
Tang Li did not expect him to admit his mistake so quickly. Suddenly, she felt like she was being unreasonable. She lowered her hand and asked embarrassedly, “Why did you stop?”
“What kind of environment do these herbs grow in?”
“Are you gonna send people to go and get them?”
“Yeah.”
Tang Li’s eyes instantly lit up. She tugged on his shirt excitedly. “Come, let’s go to the living room and sit down to talk. These herbs are not easy to find. I’ll describe the environment in which they live and their characteristics.”
Qi Yihan looked down at the hand that was holding onto his shirt. Her joints were fair and slender. He could feel her excitement and guessed that she was acting subconsciously, so he didn’t remind her.
Indeed, Tang Li was only doing it out of excitement. She then let go of his shirt and walked toward the villa next door.
Butler Zhang was a little surprised when he saw them walking into the villa.
Qi Yihan looked at him.
Butler Zhang immediately stood at attention and asked respectfully, “Master, what can I do for you?”
Tang Li answered him, “Go make a pot of tea.”
Butler Zhang was stunned for a second and then went to make tea at once.
After Tang Li and Qi Yihan sat down in the living room, Tang Li told him about the environment and characteristics of these herbs.
Worried that he might not understand, Tang Li asked Butler Zhang to find a pen and a notebook for her. She sat beside him and drew as she spoke.
“This medicinal herb is in this shape, but there are many other plants of the same shape. If you aren’t careful, you’ll find the wrong one. However, its greatest characteristic is that there is an extremely rare purple ant near it. This ant is extremely poisonous. If you see it, you can also bring a few back…”
Qi Yihan looked at the drawing in his notebook and found that Tang Li’s drawing was very vivid. He instinctively looked up at her.
They were so close that he could see the fine hairs on her cheeks. Her skin was fair and soft, with a hint of pink. At the moment, her eyelids were lowered, and her eyelashes fluttered like two small fans. She had a high nose bridge. Though she did not wear lipstick today, her pink cherry lips still looked quite juicy.
Even without makeup, she was so dazzling that people could not take their eyes off her.
Qi Yihan was a little confused, not knowing why she was so different from the one he used to remember
Seeing that Qi Yihan did not respond, Tang Li looked up at him. “You… Do you understand?”
She was suddenly taken aback because they were too close.
Tang Li was wondering how they got so close.
“What?” Qi Yihan suddenly asked, his voice deep.
Tang Li returned to her senses and pointed at the notebook. “Do you understand?”
“Mm.” Qi Yihan’s gaze returned to the book and he took it. “I’ll immediately send someone to look for these herbs.”
With that said, he stood up.
Tang Li glanced at the untouched tea on the coffee table and said, “Have some tea first. Red tea is good for your stomach. You should drink more of it.”
Hearing that, Qi Yihan stared right at her suspiciously.
Tang Li thought that he was suspecting her motive again, so she quickly said, “Don’t worry, I don’t have any evil motives. Since you’re my husband, I have to be concerned about your health.”
Qi Yihan gripped his notebook tightly and turned to leave.
Tang Li leaned on the sofa and said to him, “When you find these herbs, if you’re not sure, call me anytime.”
The man’s voice came from the doorway.. “Alright.”
