"Go out and buy medicine for Ah Chu."
After saying that, Bai Heng remained silent and did not let go of his hand.
Wei Xuan's tone became a little colder, "Wife, if everything is fine, can you let me go?"
Bai Heng didn't let go. She stared at the man who hadn't even looked at her, his brows cold and indifferent, and said bitterly, "Why don't you ask me what I was doing in Tangzhou these past two days?"
Wei Xuan's fingertips trembled, his face calm, "My wife has official business to attend to."
"What if it's not for official business?" Bai Heng asked persistently.
Wei Xuan lowered his eyes, "Where my wife goes and what she does must have her own reasons."
Bai Heng tightened her grip on his wrist. She wanted to ask, "I left suddenly for two days, why didn't you ask me what I did? If you had asked, I would have told you everything."
What she wanted to ask more was whether you missed me in the past two days.
But she swallowed the words back as soon as they came to her lips.
There was no need to ask, she already knew the answer.
Bai Heng slowly released his hand, "Since you are leaving the house, you should be more careful."
Wei Xuan responded indifferently, said no more, turned and left.
Until Wei Xuan's figure disappeared from his sight, Bai Heng felt a pain in his chest, groaned, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face suddenly turned pale.
"grown ups."
The guards beside him supported his staggering body.
"Sir, why don't you call your husband back and let him take care of you."
"No need. Remember not to let my husband know about my injury. If anyone tells my husband without permission, I will never forgive him. By the way, put the man I brought here today in jail and take good care of him."
She emphasized the word "serve", her eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across her eyes.
Bai Heng first went to Bai Chu's yard and learned that Bai Chu's condition had improved and a good doctor had been found. He felt relieved.
He returned to his yard. The house was cold and deserted, without much of the smell of life.
He looked towards the yard where Wei Xuan was.
He and A Xuan have been sleeping in separate rooms for a long time, and he doesn't know if they will have the chance to sleep in the same bed again.
After returning to the house, he opened a box, inside which lay an exquisitely carved orchid hairpin. He reached into his arms and took out an almost identical jade hairpin. The difference was that the jade hairpin in his hand was complete and new, while the jade hairpin in the box was broken into two pieces.
The jade hairpin in the box is a token of love between her and A Xuan.
It was just broken into pieces during a quarrel between the two a few years ago.
This time when he went to Tangzhou Prefecture, he happened to see an identical one and bought it, intending to give it to Xuan, but...
Recalling Ah Xuan's indifferent expression when they met at the door, Bai Heng tightened his grip on the jade hairpin, and finally put it into the box together with the broken hairpin.
Bai Heng called over his personal servant and solemnly placed a bottle of medicine powder in his hand. "Have someone mix this medicine powder into your husband's food on time. Don't let him find out."
The servant tightly grasped the medicine powder and asked in confusion, "Sir, why didn't you tell your husband that you had worked so hard to get this medicine powder? For it, you still..."
"Alright." Bai Heng stopped him, "There's no need to talk about the actual matter anymore."
The servant had no choice but to retreat.
-
Wei Xuan walked straight away, restraining himself from looking back, until he stopped at the corner.
He raised his wrist. His skin was relatively fair and tender, and a little force would leave a mark. At this time, there was a circle of red marks on his wrist, and the white and red formed a sharp contrast.
Wei Xuan stared at his wrist in a daze. It seemed that the warmth of that person still remained on it.
That night, before going to bed, Wei Xuan put on his coat.
