Chapter 65 Chapter 65 What did Qin Sizhao hide?

She thought about it carefully, but she couldn't remember the time when Lingchuan and Gu Shi were ambiguous.

It seemed like the two of them had never been so affectionate and affectionate before. Basically, they either quarreled, fought, or just went to bed together.

Jinzhan touched her nose awkwardly.

Well, I didn’t expect that even though they were married, Lingchuan could still cheat on her without saying a word.

Her life was so wonderful, but fortunately it had nothing to do with her. She didn't want to live such a wonderful life.

"I'll take my leave."

She hurried out. Gu Shi was still sitting in the shade of the tree, his pale chin supported by his skinny hands, his thin eyelids drooping, and he looked depressed.

That's right, he really should be depressed. It's his own fault that he has ended up like this.

"Your Majesty, I think she's alright. She's lucky to be alive."

"Well, step back."

He whispered.

He couldn't accept it but he had to force himself to accept it. However, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he couldn't swallow this anger. He walked into Lingchuan's room in a depressed mood, wanting to catch them both off guard.

"Lingchuan, are you alone here?"

She turned her head and said impatiently:

"They came and bled me and then left."

"Where did the blood come from?"

Gu Shi looked at her white skin, as cold as jade, and could find no trace of blood.

She pushed her black hair over her other shoulder, revealing a large area of ​​fair skin, and pointed to the top of her ear.

"It's blood from my ear."

She knew that Gu Shi must be jealous, and was about to say a long string of sour words, forcing her to say a lot of nagging and corny words.

But to her surprise, he didn't say anything and just looked at her as if he was deflated.

"I hope you can recover."

He carefully held her face and wanted to kiss her cheek, but he was unsure whether she would let him kiss her again.

After saying this, Gu Shi felt regretful, as if he had condoned her infidelity.

As long as she can recover her health, is it okay even if she finds another adulterer?

He seemed really tired of this, and had no choice but to remain open-minded and magnanimous. He felt extremely painful because of this open-mindedness, but after being in pain for a long time, he became numb.

He also wanted to be a person who was vindictive and never let go of any grudges, but he couldn't make up his mind to bear the losses behind it.

He looked at Lingchuan. She didn't have any special reaction, but just had that slightly impatient look on her face, as always.

Would she tire of him because she had someone else in her heart, or did she tire of him first and then have someone else in her heart?

What he wanted to do most now was to have sex with her, so that he could quickly use his body to confirm whether she still loved him, but he couldn't do that now.

If Lingchuan raised her hand and slapped him right now, he would be happy about it and get a kind of desperate pleasure from it. At least when she raised her hand to hit him, she would have him in her eyes.

He looked at her neck and thought desperately.

If he forced himself on her now, what would she do?

Would she pull out the silver hairpin on her head and stab his throat?

He looked at her black hair that was like melted honey, without any ornaments on it.

"Lingchuan, where is your silver hairpin?"

She seemed to suddenly remember something and touched her head in panic.

"It's broken...I'm afraid it fell into the water."

Gu Shi hugged her, patted her back gently and said soothingly:

"Don't worry, I'll have someone drain the water. I'll get it back for you no matter what."

"Thank you...Gu Shi..."

Lingchuan said in a hoarse voice,

She was really surprised. When did Gu Shi become so considerate? Not only was he not jealous, he even offered to help her find the hairpin.

Gu Shi felt her body temperature. Her body was soft and relaxed, and she did not resist the hug.

Indeed, she has never been against any physical contact with him, but Gu Shi couldn't feel at ease about it.

He recalled many details of his time with Lingchuan.

According to his emotions, he would wantonly add many stories to his memories that would make his emotions more intense.

Those details are distorted.

After being with her for six years, he couldn't tell what they had experienced with her, nor could he say when his love for her began.

It's really desolate.

Half desperate, half hopeful, even if Lingchuan couldn't love only him, Gu Shi still hoped that Lingchuan could love him.

She hugged him back and gently placed her head on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, Gu Shi, I will still be with you."

In order to praise Gu Shi's magnanimity today, Lingchuan also generously comforted him.

"Is this what you meant?"

Before I knew it, the truth slipped out from my heart.

If there was a choice, would Lingchuan really choose him? Gu Shi himself didn't believe it.

Lingchuan hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to say "yes" or "no", so he simply pretended to be angry:

"How can there be so many questions about whether it was intentional or not? It's already like this, why are you still asking so many questions?"

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say. I won't ask any more questions."

Gu Shi put on an appearance of obedience.

She touched Gu Shi's face and thought that if he could always be like this, it would not be impossible for her to continue living with him.

"Lingchuan, do you feel that life is precious now?"

He asked, holding her hand.

She always tried to commit suicide in the past, but this time she almost died. Her attitude towards life must have changed.

Gu Shi's question confused Lingchuan.

Although she had been to the gates of hell, Lingchuan did not have any understanding of life. She did not even realize that she almost died.

She didn't see the revolving lantern, didn't feel any emotion, and didn't feel any regret in life.

She only had physical feelings, which was that she choked on a lot of water and then fainted. When she woke up, she was a little confused.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's not to breathe through your mouth if you accidentally fall into water.

"Maybe... a little afraid of water? Once bitten by a snake, you'll be afraid of ropes for ten years."

She was a little embarrassed, perhaps because she had no great knowledge. If she read more poetry and songs later, she might even be able to come up with a couple of witty lines.

"Then I'll order someone to drain all the water from the pool."

"No need, being bald would be so ugly, I'll just go around it."

Lingchuan said.

She heard a knock on the door, and then saw Qin Sizhao walk in.

He was holding a bowl of porridge in his hand, which exuded the fragrance of rice.

"You can't eat too much oil when you're sick. It will only burden your body. So I prepared some medicinal food and sent it to you."

He directly brought the bowl of porridge to the table. Lingchuan glanced and saw a small stain of blood on his sleeve. Was it the blood on the tip of his ear that accidentally rubbed onto his sleeve?

"After only one month, I will resign and return home, either as a doctor or a teacher. Your Majesty, please do not worry."

Gu Shi was only worried about whether Lingchuan could give birth smoothly without Qin Sizhao, and he had no time to feel happy about his rival's voluntary withdrawal.

"Okay, take care, Master Qin."

Lingchuan's expression showed some relief.

"I'll take my leave."

Qin Sizhao bowed lightly and took his leave.

Gu Shi put his arm around her shoulders and said worriedly:

"Lingchuan, it's not that I can't bear to keep him... I'm just worried about whether you can give birth smoothly without him..."

"I'm fine."

Lingchuan said perfunctorily, but she felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.

Being uncontrollably caught up in an emotional storm, resigning quickly was obviously the most rational decision, but she couldn't help but feel that there was something else going on.

His face looked much paler today for no reason. It was probably because he had been sleepless for the past few days and had overdrawn his body.

He's going to resign in a month... Who are he telling this to?

She really wanted to grab Qin Sizhao and ask him what he was thinking.

After not seeing each other for six years, he is already so mysterious. He must be hiding something from her.

She picked up the bowl of porridge and took a sip.

When she took a bite, she found that the porridge tasted exactly the same as when she was a child. It was her mother's cooking. She added sesame oil and soy sauce to the porridge. It couldn't be said to be very delicious, but she just felt nostalgic.

She held the bowl in both hands and looked down at it carefully.

She hadn't tasted something like this in six years. Thinking back, her mother had indeed taught Qin Sizhao her craft.

Her mother said that after she and Qin Sizhao got married, she would let Qin Sizhao do the dirty and tiring work in the kitchen, and she would just sit in the front and collect money.

Thinking of the past, Lingchuan's eyes dimmed and he couldn't help but sigh that everything is fate.

Gu Shi took a glance and the bowl of light porridge looked a bit shabby in his eyes.

"Is it okay to eat just this little bit?"

"My mother said that when you're sick, it's best to eat something liquid and not something too greasy."

When she had a fever as a child, her mother made her a bowl of porridge like this.

Gu Shi frowned and said:

"Why doesn't it look like the craftsmanship of the palace? Let me have a taste too."

Lingchuan ignored Gu Shi and drank all the porridge in one breath. She hadn't eaten anything proper since she fell ill, and her stomach did feel empty. After drinking it, she found that the porridge had a medicinal taste.

"It's bad to compete with sick people for food."

Lingchuan rolled his eyes.

"Huh? What's the matter? You can't get used to the food in the palace, but you like Qin Sizhao's cooking instead? There's nothing good in the palace. What's so good about a bowl of porridge?"

There was a hint of sourness in Gu Shi's tone.

"How do you know he did it?"

"Guess."

Gu Shi turned his face away. He had been served by someone since he was a child. He had never done these miscellaneous chores before, so naturally he couldn't use his cooking skills to please her. This was a failure.

"He's a doctor, he knows what patients can and can't eat. It's naturally the most appropriate for him to prepare the food, and I feel more at ease eating it."

Lingchuan explained patiently, but couldn't help wondering in his heart, why was Qin Sizhao so anxious to resign?

The incident of the fake death drug is bound to break out sooner or later. What will be the final outcome?
