Chapter 161 He is not bad

Chapter 161 He’s not bad (additional update)

Yanjing Union Hospital.

In the ward, Li Zhigang was carefully feeding Wang Manni. Wang Manni refused at first, but she was unable to resist Li Zhigang because of her physical disability, so she could only half-heartedly comply with Li Zhigang's wishes.

Now, in addition to helping Wang Manni wipe her body, go to the bathroom and other private tasks, Li Zhigang has taken on all other tasks of taking care of Wang Manni.

Li Zhigang scooped up a spoonful of the old hen soup he stewed himself, put it to his mouth and blew on it, then slowly handed it to Wang Manni's mouth, and said expectantly: "Have a try, how does the soup you stew today taste?

A little better than yesterday?"

Wang Manni opened her mouth slightly and took a small sip of the chicken soup. After savoring it carefully, she said with some disgust: "It's just average. It's barely drinkable. It's much better than the half-cooked chicken soup yesterday."

Hearing this, Li Zhigang smiled happily, and his otherwise unremarkable face smiled like a blooming wild chrysanthemum.

"Haha, yes, this means that I have found the key point. I will make chicken soup for you tomorrow. It will definitely taste better than today."

Wang Manni pouted her lips and said, "Stewing chicken soup? My sweat smells like chicken soup now, so please spare me!"

"Ah, can I make you some old duck soup tomorrow? Didn't you work in Xiangjiang before? I heard that people in Xiangjiang like to drink old duck soup."

Wang Manni blinked and thought to herself, what unreliable guy told you that people in Xiangjiang like to drink old duck soup?

People in Xiangjiang live a delicate life. They prefer sweets or soups with a slightly lighter taste. Even if they stew old hen, they must put some rock sugar, wolfberry, cordyceps and the like, so that they will not be salty like us northerners.

Oral is the main thing.

I still like the taste of the north, whether it’s stir-fries or soups, or the salty ones that go well with rice!

"Haha, the old duck soup is not bad, at least it's a different kind of poultry."

"Okay, I'll make you duck soup tomorrow."

"What old duck soup?"

Just as the two were talking, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind. Wang Manni was lying on the bed, and she immediately realized that the person coming was Cao Chunyuan, and her face turned red with embarrassment.

Li Zhigang turned around and realized that Cao Chunyuan was coming. He quickly got up.

"Dr. Cao, you are here"

Cao Chunyuan looked at Li Zhigang with a wicked smile, glanced at Wang Manni who was avoiding her gaze, and said with a smile: "Did I come at a bad time and disturb you?"

Li Zhigang waved his hand quickly, "No, no, I'm feeding Manny. If you need anything, just give me instructions."

Hearing this, Cao Chunyuan was speechless for a while.

Brother, I am helping you. At this time, you should shamelessly say something to bring the distance between you two closer. What are you talking about? No wonder you have been single. You really don’t understand women at all.

"Haha, you go out for a walk, I'll have a chat with Manny."

"OK."

Li Zhigang put the tableware in his hands aside and walked out. Cao Chunyuan shook her head helplessly, secretly thinking that this guy is really clueless, no wonder Wang Manni despises him!

"How are you feeling lately? Are you feeling better?"

Seeing that Cao Chunyuan was talking about business, Wang Manni turned her head and looked at Cao Chunyuan with some embarrassment.

"I feel much better recently, but the wound is itchy and a little painful and I want to scratch it."

"Itch means that the wound is growing. You must not touch it with your hands. People say that it takes a hundred days to break the muscles and bones. How long have you been here? Recuperate slowly and don't leave any sequelae!"

Having said this, Cao Chunyuan opened her backpack, took out a white medicine bottle, and placed it on Wang Manni's bedside.

This is the medicine that Cao Chunyuan helped Wang Manni prepare recently. It uses medicinal materials cultivated in Phoenix Space.

"I have asked someone to prepare medicine for you to treat scars, but you haven't taken out the stitches yet, so don't take the medicine until you take out the stitches."

Wang Manni blinked her big eyes twice and looked pitifully at Cao Chunyuan.

"Dr. Cao, you are so kind."

Cao Chunyuan smiled and patted Wang Manni's thigh, and said: "You suffered all your injuries for me, how can I not be nice to you? I will give you the courtyard house that I am renovating, as a reward for you.

"

Cao Chunyuan bought two courtyard houses some time ago, one in Nanluogu Lane and one in Qianmen, both in the best areas in the inner ring of Yanjing.

Cao Chunyuan said that the courtyard house she gave to Wang Manni was located in Nanluogu Lane, and the price alone was nearly 500,000.

Cao Chunyuan also asked professional ancient architectural designers to redesign it, hired professional workers at a high price to repair it, and all the interiors of the rooms were finely decorated. As a result, the value of the courtyard nearly doubled.

But Cao Chunyuan gave this courtyard house to Wang Manni lightly, which shows how generous Cao Chunyuan is to Wang Manni.

"Dr. Cao, don't you really like that courtyard house? How could I be so embarrassed to take advantage of it?"

Cao Chunyuan smiled and waved her hand, "Hey, it's just a courtyard house, what's the big deal. Now that the Su family has been thoroughly investigated, many properties and shops have been sealed, and it won't be long before a public auction takes place.

When the time comes, I will take pictures of the Su family compound and live the life of a wealthy family."

Wang Manni: Meow meow meow?

"Mr. Cao, why is the Su family being thoroughly investigated?"

Cao Chunyuan then remembered that Wang Manni had been in the hospital during this period, and she might not be aware of what was going on outside.

"The person who sent someone to hit you has been caught. He is Su Yaoliang's personal assistant. After he was arrested, he confessed all the things Su Yaoliang had committed before, and Su Yaoliang was arrested and imprisoned.

It is said that the Su family owes a lot of bank loans, and the court has sealed up the Su family's mansion and many of the Su family's properties, and a public auction will be held in a few days."

As an outsider, Cao Chunyuan's understanding of the Su family was limited to the business affairs of the Su family. But as a native of Yanjing, Wang Manni understood the power of the Su family better.

The Su family is an old family that has been prosperous for a hundred years, and its sphere of influence is not limited to business. But such a powerful family was completely lonely during the time when Wang Manni was hospitalized.

Even the Su family compound will be auctioned by the court, which shows how miserable the Su family is this time. I am afraid that from now on, the four major families in Yanjing City will become three major families!

"Cao, Director Cao, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true, why did I lie to you?

If I had known that the Su family was so irresistible, I would not have poured feces on the door of the Su family's courtyard. If I lived here in the future, I would feel sick just thinking about it."

"Haha~"

Wang Manni smiled awkwardly but politely. That is the Su Family Courtyard, passed down from the previous dynasty. The geographical location and the design of the house are better than the Zhang Family Courtyard. Do you still dislike it?

I don’t know how many people are rushing to get such a nice courtyard with history. I think you are really excited.

"Hey, let's not talk about useless things. How have you and Zhigang been getting along these past two days? Although this guy looks a little different, he is still a good person.

I saw that he was very interested in you, so I asked him to come over to serve you. How do you feel? If you find him annoying, I'll let him go home."

Hearing this, Wang Manni's expression changed instantly. Her originally pale face instantly turned red and very cute.

"Dr. Cao, what can I have with him? He is so stupid that he can't make soup well and he doesn't know how to coax people. I, I have no interest in him."

Cao Chunyuan narrowed her eyes slightly and thought to herself, you little girl, you are still pretending to be with me, right? When I first came in, you had so much fun chatting with me. But in front of me, you dislike me again, okay, then I will

Come with you.

"Oh, I also think Zhigang is clumsy. You are already a wounded person. How can he help? I think you should let him go back. I will ask Lily to come and take care of you tomorrow. She is familiar with you. A girl can take care of you.

It will be more convenient for you."

"Don't"

Wang Manni instinctively resisted Cao Chunyuan's "driving away" Li Zhigang, and wanted to reject Cao Chunyuan's proposal, but she felt that such a straightforward rejection was not right.

"He has been working very hard recently and is still learning to cook. Why don't we let him try it again!"

"Oh~"

Cao Chunyuan deliberately lengthened her voice and looked at Wang Manni with a wicked smile. Only then did Wang Manni realize that Cao Chunyuan was making fun of her.

"Dr. Cao, you are so bad, you actually made fun of me."

Cao Chunyuan shrugged and said with an innocent face: "How could it be? I am asking for your opinion very seriously. If you really want to change someone, of course I will help you change it."

Wang Manni couldn't speak to Cao Chunyuan and turned her head shyly.

"Huh, I'm ignoring you."

"Hahaha, I feel guilty!"

"No way~"
