Xu Wennuan finally snapped out of thought. After gently thanking him, she lifted her hand, took the medicine from him, and put a tablet into her mouth. She lifted the glass of warm water and swallowed it along with her medicine, which warmed up her stomach as well as her heart.
She placed her glass of water down and looked up at Lu Bancheng. Pointing at the seat across from herself, she said, "Why don't you take a seat?"
After she said it, she realized that Lu Bancheng might have intended to go back to his party, so she added on hurriedly, "I'm alright. Why don't you go back in?"
Without speaking, Lu Bancheng shuffled a few steps and sat right across from Xu Wennuan. He glanced at the empty glass before her and raised his hand to beckon for the waiter nearby to pour some more water for Xu Wennuan before saying to her, "Are you feeling down?"
Xu Wennuan was momentarily stunned by his sudden question but then recovered, shaking her head. "Nope."
