"Well, you must leave home every once in a while." Lily smiled. "Try the tea."

Anastasia was okay to drink tea, but she only took a tiny sip. As she was about to put down the cup,

she licked her lips thoughtfully and took another small sip. "It’s sweet?"

She did not look surprised but horrified, as if she had done something terrible. She immediately set the

cup down, spilling some of the tea. "Did you add sugar? Why are you doing this to me?"

Lily observed Anastasia's reaction in silence and said slowly, "I didn't add another sugar. The

sweetness came from the tea leaves."

"How is that possible? How can tea be sweet by itself? Besides, I can't have anything sweet!" Anxious,

Anastasia held her neck and wanted to throw up but could not as she only took two sips.

Lily poured a cup for herself and spoke after calmly drinking the tea, 'This is ginseng oolong tea. Since

it's naturally sweet, it could lower blood pressure and lipid levels. Also, it’s good for your body.”

Anastasia's eyes lit up after learning what the tea could do, and she looked less disturbed. "Is that

true?"

'You've been so good to me by giving me agarwood and the lily of the valley. What do I get from lying to

you?" Lily took a cloth, wiped the spilled tea, and refilled Anastasia’s cup. "Have some more."

Anastasia somehow trusted Lily. She put her worries to rest and held up the cup to drink, finishing the

tea in two swigs. "It's delicious!" She reached out to grab the teapot. "I'd like more."

However, Lily beat her to it and took the teapot away. "No."

'Why?" Anastasia did not understand. "Didn't you say I can drink this, and it's good for my body?"

"It's good for you, but you must only take things in modest amounts.

Overdoing something is just as bad as underdoing it." Lily met Anastasia's puzzled gaze and poured

her another cup of tea. "Drink slowly and take your time to taste it. Remember what I told you last time

about the fun of enjoying our food."

Having heard what she said, Anastasia did not drink her tea in two or three swigs but took small sips to

taste the tea instead. "It's sweet and mellow. What an excellent tea. I never had it before."

"Not only have you never had this tea before, but you’ve refrained from taking other drinks, haven't

you? Technically, you don't even dare to drink water."

'She's right!' Anastasia opened her mouth as if to say something, but she hesitated.

After a while, tears welled up in her eyes. "L-Lily, can you save me?" Anastasia spoke with a thick

nasal voice, trying hard not to cry. She looked particularly pitiful with her pleading expression.

"Don’t say it like that." Lily wanted to help her anyway, but she felt awkward now that the young woman

pleaded with her so.

"I mean it!" Anastasia thought Lily was unwilling and hurriedly came over to grab her arm. "I know I

might sound ridiculous as I've seen many doctors, and I feel I should give up. However, I have no idea

why but I feel like you can save me!"
