Chapter 1287: You’re Seriously Ill
Lanxin turned out to be a dark horse that emerged victoriously and obtained the sponsors.h.i.+p opportunity for the martyr appreciation event. As soon as the news was released, it spread like wildfire across all media platforms, the internet and amongst the public. It was like a tossed stone that raised a thousand ripples and brought more fame to Lanxin Company.
All of a sudden, Lanxin Company became a household name that could be compared to various other established health supplements brands on the market.
Wen Xinya stared at the metal gate in front of her and hesitated for a moment before pressing the doorbell gently.
After pressing the doorbell, the tension in her body seemed to have been released all of a sudden. She became much more relaxed and decided to put her complicated thoughts away while taking things in stride.
About a minute later, the metal gate was pushed open and out came Xu Zhenyu. Staring at Wen Xinya in shock, he asked, “What… what brings you here?”
Ever since the last mission, he did not take on any new ones and had been staying in the base camp. Since he was on a break, he moved back to the apartment. He did not expect Wen Xinya to visit at all.
Wen Xinya said in displeasure, “What are you waiting for? Why are you standing there? Hurry and open the door. Trust you to have the cheek to make your guest wait outside your door.”
Wen Xinya did not manage to speak to Xu Zhenyu during the previous gathering and they did not get to meet recently either, for she was busy with the Lanxin health supplements company while Xu Zhenyu had been staying in the base camp. That was why she chose to look him up.
Xu Zhenyu finally recovered from the shock and frantically opened the door to allow her to enter.
Wen Xinya stuffed the bags into Xu Zhenyu’s hand and said, “Hold it!”
Xu Zhenyu grabbed the bags and followed Wen Xinya into the living room. After placing the items on the coffee table, he asked, “Why did you bring so many things? I don’t lack anything.”
Wen Xinya ignored him and proceeded to grab the items away from him. “Look! These are the health supplements produced by my company. Give a few boxes a try. If they work for you, I’ll bring you more.”
Good things were meant to be shared with friends. Hence, she had distributed the eco-friendly health supplements produced by Lanxin to her friends. She even gave two boxes to Du Ruoxin.
“Aren’t these health supplements meant for old fogies or those who are sickly?” asked Xu Zhenyu, who felt a little awkward. Staring at the green boxes of health supplements, he recalled that they were the most popular health supplements at the moment.
Of all things, why must she gift me with health supplements?
Wen Xinya rolled her eyes at him, disturbed by his ignorance. “Don’t worry, our products are suitable for everyone, regardless of gender, age or health condition. There are no side effects, so they are absolutely safe for consumption.”
Is she just trying to promote her products? Xu Zhenyu gritted his teeth angrily and said, “Look at me. Do I look like I’m in need of health supplements?”
Wen Xinya suddenly leaned towards him and stared at him attentively. “You do!”
Xu Zhenyu got a great shock as his heart began to pound rapidly. “What… what are you doing?”
He only realized how beautiful and radiant her face was, so much that he could not take his eyes off her.
Wen Xinya said, “Your vision is out of focus, your pupils are slightly dilated, your eyes are sunken, you have dark eye bags, and your lips are pale too… stick your tongue out!”
She sounded a.s.sertive and uncompromising.
Xu Zhenyu dared not retort at all. He stuck his tongue out obediently.
Wen Xinya said, “Your tongue is white and your breath smells strange…”
Xu Zhenyu turned pale before blus.h.i.+ng in embarra.s.sment. He subconsciously closed his mouth and glowered at Wen Xinya angrily.
Wen Xinya patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t get too nervous. That’s not a major issue. Your spleen and kidney are just out of balance. Hence, you’re going to suffer from insomnia and find it hard to focus. You have to rest your mind and soothe your soul. You’ll be better after taking a few boxes of our supplements.”
“Really?” Xu Zhenyu asked, staring at Wen Xinya apprehensively. For some reason, he felt that Wen Xinya seemed to be… a conman. However, he did experience those symptoms.
Wen Xinya chuckled and said, “Why would I lie to you? We’re such close friends. I wouldn’t harm you. You’re just experiencing these issues because of excessive stress. Although there won’t be major effects on your body, you’ll be depleting your energy if this goes on for a long time.”
When they were at the training ground, she could already tell that there was something wrong with Xu Zhenyu’s health. However, he left before she could even help him nourish his body.
She forgot about it because she had been too busy preparing for the launch of the health supplements.
Xu Zhenyu hesitated for a moment before accepting the products.
Wen Xinya smiled at Xu Zhenyu radiantly while gritting her teeth. “You must take them regularly!”
Xu Zhenyu felt a sudden chill down his spine and s.h.i.+vered uncontrollably. “Got it!” he answered menacingly.
Wen Xinya then placed another large, black plastic bag in front of him. “Here’s some soup that I brewed for you. Take one bag twice a day, once in the morning and once at night. These are enough to last you for twenty days. Store them in the refrigerator and heat them up before you drink them. After you’ve finished them, I’ll brew you another batch. It took me a lot of time and effort, so if you dare defy me…” Wen Xinya gritted her teeth while sticking her fist out at Xu Zhenyu sinisterly.
It was now wintertime, the best period for nourishments. However, she had meticulously brewed them according to Xu Zhenyu’s current health condition.
Having been through strenuous training and several dangerous missions, Xu Zhenyu definitely suffered various ailments because of the long-term stress that he had put his body through. She had been rather worried about him and hence, decided to concoct and brew some soup for Xu Zhenyu.
Staring at her fist, Xu Zhenyu felt that it looked just like a floral pillow, though it possessed incredible power and authority that made him succ.u.mb involuntarily.
Feeling extremely indignant, Xu Zhenyu glared at Wen Xinya and exclaimed, “You’re so naggy, you’re even more annoying than my mother!”
My mother doesn’t pay that much attention to my health, either. I’m clearly a strong and fit youth, but Wen Xinya sees me as a weak and sickly person. She keeps shoving these health products to me.
However… why don’t I feel like retaliating?
It actually feels rather good.
