Chapter 425



Hong Yu had the door closed, and after lighting several braziers in the room, she carefully took off all of Wang Ruo's clothes one by one. After she carefully examined the man inside and out, she fell into deep thought.

Seeing her thoughtful expression, Tang Chen asked expectantly, "How is it?"

"It's very strange. There's nothing wrong with her, but this is really strange." As he spoke, Hong Yu helped Wang Ruo put her clothes back on.

Well, if you put aside those unusual aspects, this person, from her bones to every inch of her skin, looked exactly like someone of her age. Aside from a slight weakness, there wasn't anything wrong with her. Of course, that couldn't be ruled out as a result of her medical skills not being good enough to see clearly.

The little spark that had just ignited in Tang Chen's heart was extinguished again. "Oh, forget it. Let's wait until Boss Hua comes back."

Before Tang Chen finished speaking, Hong Yu quickened her pace after hearing footsteps outside the door. After they had dressed Wang Ruo, they heard a knock on the door.

Hong Yu only said that Wang Yanzhou had arrived, then he opened the door and left. When Tang Chen came to his senses, Wang Yanzhou was already talking to Hong Yu: "Hong Yu, weren't you arrested? Why are you here?"

When he saw Hong Yu, Wang Yanzhou was also a little surprised. Earlier, Wang Nianqing came to tell him that Hong Yu had been captured and asked him to come up with an idea. The people who went to rescue her had just left. Now it seemed that those Qilin Guards had worked in vain.

Hong Yu smiled and said, "Of course, I was smart enough to find a way to escape. I won't bother you any more. I've been traveling for a long time, and I need to go back and rest."

Although Wang Yanzhou had his doubts about her words, he believed that if he doubted someone, he would employ him without doubt. Although Hong Yu was from Nanyue, after all they had experienced, she was considered one of his own. He would just accept whatever she said. Besides, he didn't have the time to figure out the reasons behind everyone's actions.

"Well, go ahead. If you need anything, just tell the butler directly."

"Thank you very much."

Wang Yanzhou looked at the peaceful face on the bed and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When Tang Chen asked Qiu Liang to call him, he thought Wang Ruo was going to do something, so he dropped what he was doing and rushed over: "How is she now?"

Tang Chen replied softly, "He's still in a coma. Although there's nothing wrong with him right now, even a god wouldn't be able to hold out if he keeps going without food or water."

Wang Yanzhou, to some extent, was also a person of a cold and distant disposition. Although Wang Ruo was his biological aunt, they had known each other for a time that was neither long nor short. He was just like that; although he protected his friends, if he didn't interact with someone often, his concern for them would sometimes fade over time.

Ever since Wang Ruo and Hua Wuxin moved to the Hot Spring Villa, apart from coming to see them when something happened, I didn't seem to have taken the initiative to ask about their situation. Now that I think about it, there are also reasons why Wang Ruo has become like this.

When Chen Xin was here before, as a doctor, he didn't have to worry about anyone's illness or anything like that. Now that Shen Xin is busy with the affairs of the capital and is not around, it really feels like nothing is going well: "I can't call Chen Xin back now, I'm really at a stalemate."

Tang Chen whispered, "She's in this state. We don't know what else we can do except try our best to support her. But you, has anything serious happened in the military camp recently?"

Whenever Tang Chen said something like this, Wang Yanzhou would inevitably get nervous: "Did Hong Yu say something to you?"

Tang Chen nodded and said, "You told me everything she knows. I think you are not the only one hiding it from me. So, I will not pursue your fault this time."

Wang Yanzhou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Some strange things suddenly appeared at the gate earlier, and we are still investigating. The incident happened suddenly, and it was really horrifying to tell people about it, so they had the news strictly suppressed. The few of us who knew about it didn't tell anyone else."

Tang Chen suggested: "I think you can ask Hong Yu about this matter after she has had enough rest."

Wang Yanzhou was puzzled when he heard this: "Why?"

Tang Chen explained: "She just told me some very useful information, but I think there might be some deviations if I repeat it. So, just let her tell you again later."

Before she could finish her words, Wang Yanzhou gently held her in his arms: "Besides this, don't you have anything else you want to tell me?"

Tang Chen closed his eyes and buried his head in Wang Yanzhou's arms, and asked with a reassuring smile: "What did you say?"

Wang Yanzhou said in a coquettish tone: "For example, you missed me or something like that."

"oh."

Wang Yanzhou asked helplessly, "Oh? Just one, 'Oh'?"

Tang Chen asked back, "Your aunt is still in a coma. It's so hard for her to come to see the elders. Can you talk about something meaningful?"

Wang Yanzhou hugged Tang Chen and sighed. If Wang Ruo hadn't been here, he felt that his behavior could have been even more outrageous:

"It was so hard for me to finally see my wife, but she only has my aunt in her heart."

Tang Chen smiled and said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, why are you saying that in such a pungent way? It makes it seem like you don't care about Wang Ru at all. Aren't you afraid of what others will gossip about you?"

Wang Yanzhou said nonchalantly, "Whether others care or not, it doesn't matter what they say. I don't really care what others think of me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have married you under such 'pressure'."

This teasing remark actually struck a chord with Tang Chen. When Princess Fenglai entered the palace, she finally understood the immense pressure he had endured when marrying her. Although she had claimed to be Princess Qinghe's adopted sister and the Duke of Liang's goddaughter, these confusing titles still felt somewhat intimidating.

At that time, she was complacent and self-satisfied, but when she saw the help Princess Fenglai brought to Qingliang Valley, she realized that the title was just a title.

"Then should I thank you?"

Wang Yanzhou gently kissed Tang Chen's forehead and said, "That's not necessary. I should be the one thanking you."

He wasn't ashamed, but she still had to save face. The person on the couch was still unconscious, and it was really inappropriate to say these things in front of someone else's room: "Alright, alright, you're embarrassed, but I'm not. Let's go out. Since you're here, it's impossible to say that I have no selfish motives. I haven't had a good talk with you for a long time."
