Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1588 - 1590: The Place for Blind Dates

The Shopkeeper had completely misunderstood and was even speaking up for Li Chuntao, telling Yang Dong not to overthink it.

Hearing this, Yang Dong didn’t say anything. He didn’t even know what he could say. Whatever illness that girl had wasn’t something he should be asking about; that was her privacy. Besides, what Li Chuntao had just said made her meaning very clear, and he understood.

So he just silently waited for the Shopkeeper to finish wrapping the medicine, then paid the Silver. By this time, Li Chuntao had already come out.

He saw Li Chuntao walking toward him with a smile on her face as she said, "Got the medicine? If you’re done, let’s go."

Yang Dong lifted the packet of medicine in his hand to show her, then said, "All set. What about you, are you alright now?"

"Mm, nothing at all!"

What Li Chuntao said was actually true. Once she went in, doctor Ma had taken her pulse like always and said she had no more problems. As long as she didn’t binge eat anymore and just ate normally, she could maintain this figure. But if she went back to binge eating, she might get fat again.

She had always kept doctor Ma’s instructions firmly in mind. She never wanted to get fat again.

The two of them left the clinic just like that. They had agreed to go for tea, and they couldn’t go back on it, so Yang Dong drove the carriage to a teahouse. By coincidence, this teahouse happened to be the place where Yang Dong had gone on a blind date before.

It was also the place where Li Chuntao had ruined Yang Dong’s blind date.

The two of them stood at the entrance, looking up at the teahouse signboard, and couldn’t help but recall the scene from that day.

Their moods were completely different.

Yang Dong wasn’t the kind of person who knew how to savor tea. He was just a coarse fellow from the countryside and couldn’t sit still at all. He felt that drinking tea was a waste of time—going home and drinking some water was good enough. With the Silver spent on tea, he might as well have a proper meal.

But for the sake of the blind date, he had still come.

The date hadn’t worked out, and instead he’d run into someone who came to wreck it!

That woman who had helped him scare off his blind date partner had talked so sharply she’d almost infuriated the other party to death, then had refused to back down and splashed tea on her, and in the end had even grabbed him and dragged him out.

Thinking back to that scene, the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted.

As he thought it over, he suddenly remembered that the woman back then had also been holding something in her hand—it seemed like a medicine packet from a clinic too. Could it be she was sick?

Li Chuntao, just like Yang Dong, was also replaying that scene in her mind.

She felt that back then she’d been really brave, actually going so far as to ruin Yang Dong’s marriage prospect, pissing the other party off half to death, splashing tea on her, and then dragging Yang Dong to run out.

Yet when Yang Dong asked for her name, she’d chickened out and hadn’t given it.

Thinking about it now, Yang Dong had probably long forgotten what she used to be like.

In fact, it was just as well if he had forgotten. She didn’t want Yang Dong to know what she’d been like before either.

The two of them went into the teahouse like that and found a place to sit. Yang Dong called over Xiao’er and ordered a pot of tea and a few small plates of snacks.

Everything was brought out very quickly. The quiet was really awkward—both of them sat there drinking tea without saying a word. It really did feel like they were just staring at each other wide‑eyed.

If it weren’t still so early, Yang Dong felt he would’ve changed it to a meal on the spot when Li Chuntao suggested tea. Drinking tea really didn’t suit him.

But since Li Chuntao had specifically asked to have tea, saying she was thirsty, he’d brought her here.

Li Chuntao had also overlooked this problem. If the two of them just sat without saying anything, it was indeed quite awkward. Just as she was racking her brains for a topic, voices drifted over from the neighboring table.
