Jiang Tingzhou frowned and asked with concern, “What’s the matter?”

Su Meng shook her head, “It’s nothing. There were too many mosquitoes and they bit me.”

“Where did they bite?”

Su Meng hesitated and told the truth, “Neck.” She wore long sleeves and trousers. The only exposed part was her neck. Jiang Tingzhou leaned and took a closer look. With the light projected from the street lamp by the side of the road, he saw several large red marks on Su Meng’s neck that were bitten by mosquitoes. His skin was rough and thick, so he didn’t notice the mosquitoes. She had delicate skin and smelled good. He thought that the good smell must have attracted mosquitoes to suck her blood. He took Su Meng for a little further and asked her to wait for him on the spot for a while, and hurried away.

Within a few minutes, Jiang Tingzhou walked over with a bottle in his hand. Su Meng took a closer look and found that he was holding a bottle of anti itching lotion. Jiang Tingzhou opened the cap of the bottle, and said, “The pharmacist said this is very effective for anti-itching.”

Su Meng lowered her head and glanced at the furry cat in her arms, who was reluctant to leave, and felt a little embarrassed for a while. While Su Meng was confused whether to put the cat on the ground and let him play for a while, the lotion softly on her neck. Su Meng was taken aback by Jiang Tingzhou’s sudden move. Her grip loosened, the cat flexibly jumped from her arms. Su Meng wanted to chase her right away, but Jiang Tingzhou was applying the lotion on her neck. He lowered his eyes and said seriously, “Don’t move, it will be done soon.”

The lotion had a unique fragrance, and after applying it, it brought a coolness to the skin at the applied place, which could effectively eliminate rash and relieve itching.

Jiang Tingzhou then asked softly, “Is it better now?”

Su Meng hummed extremely softly. After Jiang Tingzhou retracted his hand, he subconsciously rubbed his fingertips gently. His fingertips felt the delicate touch of Su Meng’s skin and warmth. He coughed, ignored the speed of his heartbeat, and tried to pretend to be as if nothing had happened.

Su Meng looked around, but didn’t find the Scout. She got a little anxious, “What to do, it looks like my cat is lost.”

Jiang Tingzhou closed the lid, “Don’t worry, it should be nearby.”

Su Meng turned her head and found Scout lying on the roof of the car not far away. She breathed a sigh of relief, walked over softly, and stretched out her hand to Scout. But maybe Su Meng’s accidental release angered the cat, so at that moment it looked at Su Meng proudly, raised its chin slightly, and just didn’t let her touch it.

Su Meng was angry, and urged, “Scout, come here soon!”

Scout took elegant steps and walked away from Su Meng. Then it turned its head and meowed softly. It looked at Su Meng proudly with those pair of indifferent pupils, as if she was someone new to it. 

Su Meng copied its cry and tried to coax her softly, “Meow Meow~”

The surroundings were silent, and only Su Meng’s soft voice echoed in the air. Scout hesitated, but after hearing Su Meng’s ‘meow’ sound that was even softer than the cat, she stepped into Su Meng’s embrace. Su Meng hugged her with satisfaction.

Just after she hugged the Scout she saw Jiang Tingzhou’s amused eyes.

“Kid, are you a little baby cat in previous life?” Otherwise, how come she sounds better than the cat itself?

Su Meng gave Jiang Tingzhou a fierce look, ignored his ridicule, and walked straight towards the house. After she returned to her room, Su Meng thought of his actions, and became more and more apologetic for going late on purpose. When faced with Jiang Tingzhou, her mood had always been a bit complicated. It was like wishing to get close but afraid of being close.

She remembered how he stood alone under the streetlamp, and his words, “I will always wait for you”, gave rise to guilt in her heart gradually.

She wanted to do something for him to make up for getting late deliberately. She suddenly thought of the recipe she got from the space. That prescription was used to effectively treat the symptoms of rheumatism and bone pain. There was no specific medicine that could completely cure rheumatic bone pain. In the rainy season, patients with rheumatic bone pain. In severe cases, they couldn’t even move freely and could only stay in bed all day long. And she vaguely remembered that Jiang Tingzhou’s grandfather suffered an injury. In addition, he also suffered from severe rheumatic bone pain. In the rainy season it would be particularly uncomfortable for his grandfather.

Su Meng thought that Jiang Tingzhou’s relationship with his uncle was very close, so the relationship with his grandfather wouldn’t be bad. If she could help his grandfather cure rheumatism, it would be equivalent to helping him.

She pondered for a while, and wrote the prescription on white paper. She decided to prepare all the medicinal materials tomorrow, then grind the medicinal materials into powder and send them to Jiang Tingzhou. On the other side, when Jiang Tingzhou went home, he accidentally saw Xiao Zhan at the door.
