Chapter 1403: Chapter 1404: You Have Always Been My Pride

She knew that building a business empire capable of competing with Li Group in just a few short years was a pipe dream, unrealistic.

But she could fight alongside him with her abilities, at least she wanted a career that would make others take notice, and give her a chance to be known better.

Especially his grandfather and their family.

She knew Li Shengxiao liked her, so she wanted to prove to the Lin Family that she was worthy of his affection!

She worked so hard during this period also to prove that his judgment in women was not wrong.

"Besides you, I also want Duidui to be proud of me!"

Her eyes sparkled brightly as she spoke, shining with light.

Li Shengxiao lowered his head and suddenly kissed her lips again.

After the kiss ended, he finally let go of the little woman, his dark eyes only saw her silhouette, clear and captivating.

"You have always been my pride!"

He had always been proud of her!

Rong Yan’s heart was wildly stirred, her ears burning hot, her heart thumping wildly as if it was about to fly out of her chest, completely beyond her control. She took a deep breath and quickly got up from the sofa, handing him the warm soup she had just prepared to hide her vulnerability.

"You drank alcohol tonight, drink this first. I added some Chinese herbs to this soup that help with alcohol detoxification and nourishing the stomach, it will feel much better to drink a bowl when your stomach feels uncomfortable."

Li Shengxiao stared at the bowl before him, yellow-orange and evidently bitter Chinese medicine, knitting his brows, his handsome face slightly stiffened. He took the bowl Rong Yan passed to him and resignedly drank it all in one go.

Surprisingly, the soup in the bowl was not as bitter as he imagined, and the taste was even quite good.

Rong Yan’s lips curled up in a foxy smile and said, "I added tangerine peel and brown sugar to adjust the taste, how is it, not too bad to drink, right?"

Seeing him grimace every time he drank the medicine she handed to him, she could finally see, even though belatedly, that he, like Little Baby, had no tolerance for bitter tastes.

Little Baby too, as long as the medicine is a bit bitter, he always finds it extra difficult to take.

Ah, they truly are father and son!

Even though they didn’t live together since childhood, in many ways, they are very similar. Genetics is a mysterious thing!

Watching him finish the medicine, she picked up his bowl and, like a diligent little bee, asked him, "Doctor Cui must have prepared some Western medicine for your stomach illness, where did you put it? Let me find it for you, then you can take another pill. What I brewed was just Chinese patent medicine meant for nourishing the stomach and can only alleviate symptoms, not cure your stomach illness, you need to keep taking your medication diligently."

When she studied medicine, she was top of her class, and she was confident in her medical skills. However, confident as she was, since leaving school she had not worked in the medical field and lacked clinical experience. So often, she prepared Chinese patent medicines for them, focusing on body conditioning, and did not use particularly strong medicinal ingredients.

Western medicine has always been superior in terms of anti-inflammatory and pain relief; this was something she truly trusted in Western medicine.

At this moment, Li Shengxiao got up, his tall stature and captivating eyes already heart-stopping, he casually undid the buckle on his wrist and rolled up his shirt, revealing a section of his strong arm, and said softly, "I’ve already taken it."
