Status Updates From The Apothecary Diaries: Vol...

aww a drawing of the two junjies!!

Somewhere in the middle of it, she said, "Master Jinshi?"
"Yes?"
"You can have your meal too. It's hard to eat with you staring at me."
"Oh, er, of course," Jinshi said, but he never did take his eyes off Maomao.

braaaaaa 😭 such a corny lovesick fool lol 🥹💗

Jinshi must have made many decisions like Maomao had. He must have resolved problems that she had so far avoided.
"What's wrong?" Jinshi asked, stroking her back. “I mean it.”

they’re so cute I can’ttttt 😣✋🏽

"I need to recharge a bit, myself."
She placed her hand over his-then let her head drop onto his shoulder.
"M-Maomao?"
"Too presumptuous?"
"No... It's fine. Recharge all you need." He ran a hand along the back of her head.
"If you say so."
They stayed that way—she wasn't sure for how long. All she knew was that when she raised her head again, she'd found some of her appetite.

🥲💗

Kokuyou squeezed his hands together tightly and his head drooped. He looked like he felt genuinely guilty.
"I should have lied to him. Told him that every experiment fails once in a while. Let him believe the lie."
"Can mirrors lie?"
Kokuyou shook his head slowly.

😭😭😭

Echo. Kodama. Penghou. Maomao saw now why the chief had called him what he had.
"You're like a mirror," she said.
He returns decency for decency and malice for malice.
Simple as that. Just like how your voice echoes back when you yell into the hills. Kokuyou merely reflected what was in a person's heart.

honestly yea go king

"He'll be quarantined, just for safety's sake.
He'll simply have to take a rest for ten days or so.
I have an idea." Maomao looked straight at Lishu. "If you're worried about him, why don't you stay with him? The whole time."
She had decided to take a page from Changsha's book-to get straight to the point of things.

AWWW MAOMAO🥲💗 yesss and learning from chue and maamei’s matchmaking lmao

AWWW MAOMAO🥲💗 yesss

WHAAAT HIM?!

"Hey... Did you come here to kill me?" There was no anger or sadness in his eyes.
The question was purely factual.


stooop 🥲🥲 misfortune literally won’t leave him bro stop

He was clutching a grimy dagger.
The bodyguards drew their swords. Even Jinshi pulled out a blade, pushing Maomao behind him with his free hand.

Ik that’s rt jinshi 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️💗

"Shall we go?" she asked.
After a moment, Jinshi said, "Yes, let's." He was staring studiously at the ground. Maomao wondered what could be the matter when she realized she was still holding his arm. He was trying to decide what to do with it.
"Come on, let's go," Maomao said, pulling Jin-shi away by the very same arm.

Awww 🥹💗 also been on edge cause ch title attacker pt 1 but nothing yet eek

"This will be perfect," Maomao said. She proceeded to mark off the freak strategist with a white rope. "Please don't cross this line," she said.
"Yes, of course. Ah, a meal together! How long has it been?"

Maomao living the dreaaaam. wish I could’ve done that to mine fr

"Maomao!" the freak strategist cried. In his haste to get off his horse, he slipped and tumbled to the ground. "I was so worried—I heard you'd been kidnapped again!"
"It's Lahan who's been kidnapped. Maybe you should go rescue him," Maomao said, careful to keep a prudent distance.
"Oh. Lahan. Hell come home when he's ready."

he rlly dgafff 😭😭

Very much against her natural inclinations, Maomao found herself at the freak strategist's house. And it turned out they weren't a moment too soon.
"We're going in there! And we're going to rescue Maomao!"
"Yaaaah!"
There was a whole gang of big, bad-looking men. (Where had he found these people?) And there was the freak strategist himself at their head, astride a gorgeous horse.

Lmaoooooo pls

What now? Do I say it?
The murky jade. The silent elder. Lahan sitting calmly. The attendants doing such un-attendant-like things.

I acc can not guess what’s happening #lost

"Oh, I see." She took a deep breath.
"Pardon me," Erfan said, and covered Mao-mao's ears.
The next moment, Sanfan bellowed, "Im here to retrieve my master!" She shouted so loud Mao-mao thought her eardrums might burst. If Erfan hadn't covered her ears, she worried the noise might have scrambled her brains.

LMAOOO

In a ringing tone she announced to the guards,
"We are here to retrieve Master Lahan." The guards made a show of holding a whispered conference, then laughed at her.
I don't like this at all.
Truthfully, this was not the kind of situation where Maomao excelled. She was accustomed to places like the proverbial "garden of women," environments that were more about hard talk than open violence.

yea same maomao

LMFAOO chue waking up pls jump scare maomao

Changsha is so real for giving it to her straight and I’m even more proud of Yao now taking it maturely and understanding 🥹💗 she’s grown so much awww my babies
