The kitchen over there had really tried its best.
Otherwise, the medicinal food would definitely be even more unappetizing.
The steward thought for a moment and suggested, “Perhaps it would be better to cook medicinal herbs together with the dishes Mr. Yu likes.”
Yang Chenyan, upon hearing this, looked at Ruan Qing and asked, “What do you like to eat?”
“Don’t get me wrong.” Yang Chenyan continued before Ruan Qing could answer, raising his chin, “I’m not favoring you. It’s just that my Yang family has never had the habit of mistreating patients’ dietary preferences.”
It was the first time someone had asked Ruan Qing what kind of dishes he liked; after all, he usually ate whatever was available.
With no specific preferences, Ruan Qing thought for a moment, uncertain, and answered, “...probably fish.”
The steward, hearing this, immediately instructed the kitchen to start preparing. In no time, the dish was ready.
Ruan Qing looked at the dish in front of him, which was indistinguishable from the egg custard he had just had, and fell into silence.
Naturally, the dish didn’t resemble the typical steamed or braised fish; instead, the fish meat was mashed and steamed together with medicinal herbs.
It didn’t look like a fish at all.
If he hadn’t mentioned fish earlier, no one would believe that this was made from fish meat.
Ruan Qing hesitated, took a bite, and then spat it out.
Although the fish meat replaced the eggs, the nauseating taste remained unchanged.
It was still hard to swallow.
The steward could only inquire about Ruan Qing’s preferences again and try to make something different.
However, even after several attempts with different dishes, the taste of the medicinal herbs completely overwhelmed the natural flavors of the dishes.
Ruan Qing felt that it wasn’t the fault of the dishes but rather the problematic method of mashing the dishes and steaming them together with medicinal herbs.
He suggested changing the cooking method, but the doctors directly rejected his suggestion.
These medicinal herbs needed to be steamed to fully unleash their medicinal effects.
The steward and kitchen staff could only continue trying different dishes in rotation.
This continued on until the afternoon, but Ruan Qing still couldn’t take a few bites.
Yang Chenyan became more and more irritable on the side. His irritation led him to stand up and walk to the wall, delivering a fierce kick towards it.
The wall cracked immediately from his kick, and the next moment it collapsed with a bang.
It was evident how strong his force was.
The servants had been trembling for a while. Yang Chenyan’s kick even scared one of them, causing them to fall to the ground.
After kicking, Yang Chenyan looked at Ruan Qing, gritted his teeth, and asked, “What do you like?”
Ruan Qing looked at the collapsed wall, glanced at the steward, and then spoke without hesitation, “Vegetables.”
But it was still the same with the vegetables.
Ruan Qing couldn’t understand why vegetables should be steamed together and crushed.
Moreover, the green color of the vegetables was quite stubborn, not entirely blocked by the color of the medicinal ingredients like other vegetables, so you could vaguely see the green color.
It’s just that the dark green appearance made it look even more disgusting.
Ruan Qing looked at the vegetables in silence for a few seconds before speaking, “Maybe... vegetables aren’t fresh...”
“I like to eat fresh ones.”
The Yang family villa was sealed due to the fog, and the ingredients were purchased before the sealing.
Naturally, they were not fresh.
The unsealing process would have to wait until after Young Master Yang’s funeral, at least.
There was simply no way to find fresh vegetables.
In fact, there were some grasses in the garden that could be eaten as vegetables before, but they had already been removed.
Ruan Qing looked at the steward and the servants, who wore troubled expressions, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, he should be able to let it go.
He really couldn’t eat.
But Yang Chenyan sneered, “Okay, you can.”
“You like fresh vegetables, right? You wait for me.”
Yang Chenyan finished speaking and walked towards the direction of the villa gate, looking as if he was about to leave the Yang family villa.
Ruan Qing: “...”
Not eating anything was definitely not an option, so ultimately, they had to give up on the medicinal food and prepare a regular meal for Ruan Qing.
Due to the bitterness of the medicinal herbs, Ruan Qing’s mouth was full of bitterness, making everything taste nauseating.
However, despite the difficulties, Ruan Qing managed to force down some.
But the medicine still needed to be taken; otherwise, Ruan Qing might not survive the next day.
Unfortunately, Ruan Qing just couldn’t stomach it.
The doctor and the housekeeper could see that Ruan Qing had made an effort, but indeed, he couldn’t swallow it.
They could only wait for the young master to return.
After about an hour, Yang Chenyan returned, holding a transparent plastic bag in his hand.
Inside the bag were vegetables.
They looked incredibly fresh.
In fact, neither the servants nor the housekeeper had ever imagined seeing their young master carrying vegetables. If they hadn’t witnessed it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.
Even Yang Yunmin, the head of the Yang family, probably couldn’t make the young master do such things.
Although the servants were surprised, they didn’t show any astonishment. One of the servants immediately took the vegetables from Yang Chenyan’s hand and brought them to the kitchen.
At this point, Ruan Qing had already left the hall. After finishing his meal, he returned to his room.
However, with nothing else to do, Ruan Qing asked a servant for a telescope, stood by the window, and observed the Yang family’s garden and other villas.
In early summer, the days were relatively long, and it would be completely dark only around eight in the evening.
It was now around seven-thirty, and the sun had yet to be obscured by the mountains to the west.
Ruan Qing felt safe in his room, and most guests had given up on finding a way to leave the Yang family.
Only a few guests were still making an effort.
The players had disappeared by now, and nobody knew where they had gone.
Ruan Qing just tried to enter the male player’s body, but the player was still sleeping.
Ruan Qing was afraid that Yang Chenyan might suddenly come back, so he didn’t use the player’s body to search for clues.
After Yang Chenyan handed the vegetables to the servant, he waited in the hall.
When the servant finished preparing the medicinal meal, he took it and went upstairs.
He went straight to Ruan Qing’s room.
However, as soon as he reached the doorway, he froze.
By the window, a young man dressed in a white shirt looked frail and delicate due to his weakened body. His delicate face was pale, lacking any trace of color, and even his lips were a bit faint.
However, the fragility did not diminish his beauty; instead, it gave him a delicate and inexplicably pitiful feeling, like a beautiful porcelain vase, delicate yet fragile. A touch could break it.
The young man, at this moment, was holding a telescope and looking out of the window. It was unclear how long he had been watching, but there was no sign of weariness.
The slender figure seemed somewhat fragile and helpless, appearing envious of those outside.
Envious of those with healthy bodies.
Envious of their ability to keep on living.
The kitchen over there had really tried its best.
