The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1530 - 1616: What Am I to You?

Shujun felt completely bewildered.

How could this happen? How could this happen?

Seeing his wife kissing his fourth brother yesterday, he thought she was just a bit upset that he hadn’t spent time with her lately. Even though he felt a little uneasy inside, he subconsciously believed he could coax her, so he wasn’t very anxious.

However, this morning’s conversation was like a cold bucket of water poured over him, drenching him completely and making him shiver all over.

What she wanted to express seemed direct but was actually subtle. She noticed problems he had never paid attention to before. Perhaps... he really had neglected her...

And if he continued to neglect her, even though he was confident his feelings for her wouldn’t change, she might... perhaps become disheartened and leave him.

Leave...

Shujun was suddenly horrified. He took a deep breath but felt as if he couldn’t fill his lungs, suffocating him badly.

He felt like he was about to suffocate.

He looked wide-eyed at the woman on the bed with her back to him, thinking about the words she had just said.

"Is it that I’m too strong, making you think I can handle everything, or do you hold a fluke mentality, thinking even if you leave my side, I won’t have any problems?"

"Shujun, what position do I truly hold in your heart now?"

If it were back in the day, back in Pingchang Prefecture, if he encountered the same situation, he would never leave her side.

What made him change, made these feelings change?

He was sure he still loved her very much, yet why could he be ’at ease’ with her, be ’at ease’ leaving her side?

Was it because she was skilled in medical practices, because she was proficient in Poisonous Gu, her poison, her Gu, unmatched in the world, she could handle many difficulties and was strong and independent, so he thought she wasn’t a little woman who needed his protection?

Or was it because of something else?

Shujun was completely distraught.

He was in a daze...

"Xiao Hui..."

He slowly climbed onto the bed, not getting under the covers, but instead, pulling her, along with the blanket covering her, tightly into his embrace.

"I’m sorry..."

"..."

"I was wrong..."

"..."

Dong Huiying, with her back to Shujun, didn’t resist, but her eyes were slightly red.

And one wall away, dressed in white, Shu Yu stood, holding a little flower with some dewdrops in his hand. These flowers had just bloomed recently, and the season had entered spring.

He had overheard the entire conversation from the two inside. He slowly lifted his head to look at the clear sky, bright with sunshine, yet his heart felt as if it was in a cold, icy world.

Haoming personally carried a big barrel of warm bathwater. When he saw his second brother standing outside the door, an expression of doubt involuntarily appeared on his wooden face.

"Second brother?"

Shu Yu’s body slightly stiffened, and he slowly turned to look at Haoming.

Because of his wife’s request, Haoming didn’t wear a human skin mask at home. He carefully examined this rough, tough, and masculine face. He recalled that these days in Nanling, he often went out holding a guqin, spending his time with acquaintances he wasn’t very familiar with, while neglecting his loved one at home.

Third brother Shujun was busy with business matters as well, and the same was true for them. They thought with Haoming at home, Haoming who was outstanding in martial ability and mastered animal language, with Haoming accompanying the wife master, nothing would go wrong.

Then...

He carefully recalled the wife’s previous words.
