The room was quiet.

  After making sure that the girl was fine, the man’s heart calmed down. “Why did Hua Wuyan kidnap you here?”


  Qin Shu nestled in the man’s arms. After the excitement, her heart gradually calmed down.

  “Because of Han Xiao.”


  The girl’s voice was a little low, which meant that she already knew about Han Xiao’s leg injury.

  “You needn’t worry about this. Leave it to me, I’ll take you out now.”


  Qin Shu held the man’s hand and said, “Darling Yu, you go back first. I won’t go back for the time being.”


  The man paused and turned his head to look at the girl’s face. Because the light was too dim, he couldn’t see the girl’s expression.

  “Why won’t you come with me? Just because Han Xiao lost a leg?”


  Qin Shu said, “He got injured because he took a risk for me. I can’t just ignore him.”


  Hearing the determination in the girl’s voice, the man’s dark eyes stared at the girl as if he wanted to see through her.

  Qin Shu also looked at him. She had her own principles.

  If Han Xiao’s leg was not healed, she would not be able to feel at ease for the rest of her life.

  Can’t ignore him?

  The man’s eyes seemed to be coated with a layer of frost. “Then, if he sits in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, you will also have to accompany him for the rest of his life? You are my wife.”


  He could not bear to have his woman by the side of another man.

  The man’s cold eyes and low tone were all telling that he was angry.

  She stretched out her arms and wrapped them around the man’s neck again, trying to appease his unhappy mood.

  “I’m your wife. I’ll always be yours alone.”


  The man’s nerves were still tense. He did not relax because of the girl’s words.

  “But you have to be by the side of another man.”


  “I don’t intend to be by his side.” Qin Shu hurriedly explained, “He won’t be sitting in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. I’ll think of a way to cure his leg.”


  Self-deception.

  The man said in a cold voice, “Then you should also know that without the orchid grass, Han Xiao’s leg can not be cured. The orchid grass has been extinct for a long time. How are you going to cure him?”


  Hearing this, Qin Shu’s body stiffened. She had seen countless herbs similar to the compendium of materia medica, so she was very clear about the medicinal properties of the orchid grass.

  She was also very clear that the orchid grass was not only not available on the market, but it had been extinct for a long time.

  In other words, Han Xiao’s leg could not be healed?

  This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Qin Shu.

  The man felt that something was wrong with the person in his arms, but he did not know that she actually didn’t know Han Xiao’s leg injury was this serious.

  He said, “Bao’er, if his leg can be cured, I, Fu Tingyu, will definitely do everything I can to treat him and not let you owe him a favor.”


  After a long time, Qin Shu finally came back to her senses. Her arms suddenly tightened, as if she was extremely afraid.

  “Darling Yu, I never thought that he would sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. His whole life is still ahead of him, and he’s still so young. We can’t just destroy him like this.”


  She was really afraid. Spending the rest of her life in a wheelchair was something that even she couldn’t imagine.

  She could not help but feel even more guilty.

  Sensing that the girl’s body was trembling, the man finally reacted. She actually did not know that Han Xiao’s leg was so serious.

  He hugged her tightly with self-blame. “Bao’er, no matter what he wants, I can give it to him. You are the only one I can’t give. You are my wife, so you can only stay by my side.”


  The man domineeringly announced his right to possess her.

  Qin Shu was really mentally exhausted at this moment. She had always believed that Han Xiao’s legs would recover, and she had always hoped that he would be as high-spirited as before.

  Even if he was cold and did not speak much and did not like to talk to others, he was still fine.

  When a person was at a loss, be it their mood or spirit, it would be very depressing.

  At this moment, Qin Shu’s thoughts were in a mess. It was not that the man owed Han Xiao, it was that she owed Han Xiao too much, so much that she did not know how to repay it, nor where to start.

  The man hugged her and didn’t let go for even a moment.

  In the end, Qin Shu still stayed in the Hua Manor.

  She was already exhausted, and when she learned of this matter, she couldn’t take it anymore.

  Under the man’s comfort, she gradually fell asleep.

  The man also stayed in the Hua Manor. He wouldn’t let her stay here alone.

  However, he wasn’t sleepy at all.

  He looked at the person in his arms that was letting out uniformed breathing sounds. Her delicate, flat eyebrows were furrowed from time to time, and she slept very restlessly.

  If Han Xiao’s legs were not treated, the girl would remember everyday. She would feel uneasy and guilty.

  If Han Xiao really spent his whole life in a wheelchair, wouldn’t she blame herself for the rest of her life?

  Thinking of this, the man frowned.

  Without the orchid grass, Han Xiao’s legs would not recover.

  If even Gu Yan could not do anything about it, who else could?

  The next day

  Qin Shu woke up from her dream. When she opened her eyes, she saw the man’s handsome face in front of her. She was stunned for a moment.

  The man had not slept for the whole night, and there was an obvious bruise in his eyes.

  Seeing that the girl had woken up, his slender fingers caressed the girl’s face, which was as big as a palm. She did not have much flesh to begin with, but now he realized that it was even less.

  He felt a little heartache. “You’ve lost weight.”


  “I’m fine.” Qin Shu recovered from her shock. Thinking of Han Xiao’s legs, her heart sank to the bottom.

  Thinking that the man was still here when dawn broke, she said, “You plan to face Hua Wuyan head-on…”


  Before she could finish her words, the man spoke. “He secretly kidnapped you here. Even if it’s because of Han Xiao, he should give me an explanation. My woman is not to be bullied by others.”


  As soon as he finished speaking, the man’s gaze fell on the girl’s thin face again, and he felt sorry for her.

  At this moment, there were two knocks on the door.

  “Knock, Knock…”


  Qin Shu glanced at the tightly shut door. “It should be the maid. I’ll go open the door.”


  After she finished speaking, she sat up from the man’s arms and got off the bed to open the door.

  The man also got off the bed at this time and slowly began to put on his clothes.

  Qin Shu was wearing a beige nightgown. When she opened the door and saw that the person standing outside the door was not the maid but Hua Wuyan, she was stunned for a few seconds.

  Hua Wuyan was dressed in formal clothes and held a plate in his hand. On the plate was a bowl of light millet porridge, and steam was still coming out of the mouth of the bowl.

  A few plates of exquisite dishes and two plates of side dishes were prepared according to Qin Shu’s taste.

  Because he learned from the maid that Qin Shu would wake up late in the morning.

  Therefore, Hua Wuyan chose this time to come because he was afraid of disturbing her sleep.

  The moment the door opened, she saw Qin Shu was still wearing a nightgown and knew that she had just woken up.

  “I saw that your appetite was a little better yesterday, so I asked the chef to prepare some dishes.”


  Qin Shu also came back to her senses at this time. When she thought that the man was going to meet Hua Wuyan face to face, she didn’t think too much about it.

  She took a glance at the exquisite breakfast in front of her and smelled the fragrance. Her hungry stomach started to protest again.

  “Thank you.”


  She thanked him and reached out to take the plate in his hand, but Hua Wuyan avoided her.

  “You haven’t washed up yet, right?” Looking at Qin Shu’s appearance, he knew that she had just woken up. “You go wash up first. I’ll help you bring it in.”
