Tang Jian paused upon hearing this, subtly glared at Tian Bu'er, and then gently replied to Lin Zao:
"It's nothing, let's go back and talk about it later."
Lin Zao could tell that Tang Jian planned to go back and discuss it further, so she didn't ask any more questions and nodded in agreement.
Tang Jian pulled Lin Zao along as they rode onto Benyue, then turned their horses around and headed back to the General's Mansion.
Tian Bu'er was left behind when the coachman stopped him to pay the fare.
Feeling guilty, Tian Bu'er didn't dare to go back to the general's mansion so soon after paying the bill, lest she face a double interrogation from the general and his wife.
While Tian Bu'er was still slowly leading his horse toward the general's mansion, Tang Jian had already brought Lin Zao home.
The children were all at school. After spending some time with Tang's mother and Aunt Ren, the two returned to their courtyard.
As soon as he entered, Tang Jian reached out and pulled Lin Zao into his arms, holding her tightly. He inhaled her scent, and the void in his heart was filled.
"Why are you hugging me so tightly? I smell terrible." Although Lin Zao enjoyed the hug, she felt embarrassed because she hadn't washed in so long and her body must smell awful.
"What smell? I can't smell anything, only the sweet fragrance of my wife." Tang Jian showed no disgust, and even sniffed at Lin Zao's neck.
Feeling the itching on her neck and the man's warm, moist breath, Lin Zao couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation all over her body.
"Alright, be serious, I have something important to say."
Lin Zao suppressed her heart palpitations, pushed Tang Jian's head away, and breathed a sigh of relief before speaking.
Tang Jian then raised his head to look at Lin Zao, his eyebrows slightly raised, his eyes full of smiles.
"What does my wife want to tell me?"
Actually, when Tian Bu'er rushed back to tell him that he saw a woman dressed as a man leading a man into the inn, Tang Jian didn't misunderstand at the time.
After all, he knew his wife well and knew her personality. There must have been some unexpected event that forced her to choose to go to the inn first.
His first instinct was that Lin Zao had encountered some trouble, which was why he was preparing to rush over with his men.
Unexpectedly, the two met on the way, and Lin Zao had changed back into women's clothing. He was so happy that he forgot to ask Lin Zao if she had encountered any difficulties.
When Lin Zao brought up that she had something to say, and judging from her normal expression, Tang Jian knew it probably wasn't anything bad.
All my worries vanished instantly.
Lin Zao told Tang Jian everything about Yue Wuyan, and only after she finished did she notice that Tang Jian's expression had become serious.
"What's wrong?"
"Madam should know that, according to Dr. Zhang at the time, Xiao Wu should have been able to recover his memory after six months of acupuncture, but last month the six months had already passed, and Xiao Wu still showed no signs of recovery."
Lin Zao was immediately surprised.
"How could this be? What did Doctor Zhang say?"
Tang Jian: "Dr. Zhang said he didn't know why. The blood clot in Xiao Wu's brain had been completely cleared, so there should have been no problem. But Xiao Wu was still the same as before."
Lin Zao frowned. She thought Xiao Wu had returned to normal after this trip, but who knew...
"I've already made an appointment with Yue Wuyan to bring Xiao Wu to the inn to see him in three days..."
"It's alright, we'll just send him over when the time comes. Xiao Wu is at Jishi Medical Clinic right now. Doctor Zhang felt that Xiao Wu's condition was a bit special, so he brought him to the clinic, saying it would be easier to observe him."
After thinking it over, Lin Zao decided that this was the only way. She put the matter aside and then felt a little uncomfortable, so she wanted to quickly wash herself with a tub of hot water.
"I'll go to the bathroom to wash up properly first, otherwise I won't have time when the children come back."
After saying that, Lin Zao pushed Tang Jian away from her embrace and walked towards the clean room.
Before she had taken two steps, Lin Zao felt herself being lifted up.
"ah!"
"What are you doing? Put me down right now!"
