Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1587 - 1589: Just a Minor Ailment

Yang Dong was a bit surprised; he hadn’t expected Li Chuntao to say that.

If they went for tea, it would mean being alone together again. Actually, when they went shopping earlier, he was already worried.

If someone they knew saw them, it wouldn’t be good and hard to explain. He was afraid of being misunderstood and ruining the young lady’s reputation.

Hadn’t there already been a misunderstanding with the kids earlier?

What should he do now? Should he refuse?

But since the lady had suggested it herself, saying as a thank you they could have tea, if he refused now, it would seem like his gratitude was fake.

After thinking it over, he finally spoke, "In that case, let’s go for tea later. But we should still buy the medicine to return to you. If there’s a headache or fever in the future, we can use it directly without having to make another trip."

Saying this, Yang Dong headed towards the pharmacy counter.

Li Chuntao followed closely behind. If Yang Dong wanted to buy it, then buy it; what he said made sense.

Moreover, her goal was achieved; Yang Dong said he would invite her for tea later.

The two of them arrived at the counter. Yang Dong saw the shopkeeper there and spoke, "Shopkeeper, I’d like to buy some medicine for headaches and fevers."

The shopkeeper lifted his head, and before he could reply to Yang Dong, he saw Li Chuntao behind him and quickly said, "Miss Li, long time no see. Are you here to see Doctor Ma today?"

"No, no, I’m just here to buy some medicine!" Li Chuntao quickly waved her hand.

She was just jealous, wanting to see if Yang Dong was buying medicine for Yang Xiaocui, so she came in without thinking. But she forgot that this clinic was the one she used to stay at, and everyone knew her.

At that moment, the door inside opened, and Doctor Ma came out, saying, "Since you’re here, let me check your pulse. It’s been over a month since you last came; let me see how you’re doing."

Li Chuntao felt like crying without tears. She didn’t want Yang Dong to know about her weight loss. But now, wouldn’t it be exposed?

To avoid being exposed, she looked at Yang Dong and quickly said, "It’s just a minor issue, all better now. Doctor Ma isn’t assured and wants to check me again, so I’ll go in first."

Then she looked at the shopkeeper, "You help him get the medicine first."

She gave the shopkeeper a look, and seeing her expression, along with her earlier words, he understood that she didn’t want the man with her to know she used to be chubby.

The shopkeeper immediately got it. This man might have some relationship with Li Chuntao; coming together might mean they are engaged. If Li Chuntao didn’t want him to know she used to be fat, it was understandable. So he quickly addressed Yang Dong, "Young man, I’ll help you get the medicine right away."

Yang Dong stood there watching Li Chuntao go into the room, filled with confusion. No wonder the lady asked about Li Chuntao’s health condition. Now they’re here, and the doctor wants to check her pulse. Clearly, there’s something wrong with her health.

But what exactly is wrong? She looks normal, not like she’s sick at all.

But then again, Yang Xiaocui’s condition wasn’t visible either.

As he was pondering this, the shopkeeper spoke, "Young man, don’t worry, Miss Li is fine, and her health is good."
