Chapter 120: No Longer Your Beastly Husband
Obviously, Arnold also found it unbelievable.
After all, Wen Li’s current conditions are very favorable.
Not only is she beautiful and gentle, she is also proficient in medicine and possesses healing powers.
These conditions combined are enough to attract a large number of high-quality males.
Many males hoped to marry her and secretly gave Wen Li a lot of gifts.
With Wen Li's current conditions, she would not be inferior even if she went to a larger tribe.
Arnold couldn't understand why Shen Yihe wanted to divorce despite having such an excellent wife.
Don't understand, but respect.
He did not ask the witch doctor any more questions, because judging from the witch doctor's expression, he probably didn't know much about the inside story, and it would be futile to ask.
He handed the sterilized tools to the medicine man, and then the two of them walked out of the cave.
Wen Li and Shen Yihe were still sitting outside. The atmosphere between them was tense and they didn't say a word to each other.
The witch doctor walked up to the two and asked earnestly, "Have you really made up your mind? Do you want to dissolve the engagement?"
Wen Li did not answer directly, but glanced at Shen Yihe lightly.
This matter was first brought up by Shen Yihe, and she actually didn't particularly want to dissolve the engagement.
After all, they had been together for such a long time, and she actually couldn't bear to part with him...that face.
But since the other person wanted to leave on his own initiative, there was nothing she could do to stop him.
The witch doctor noticed Wen Li's subtle movements, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.
However, Shen Yihe didn't hear Wen Li speak. Under the witch doctor's gaze, he nodded slightly and replied, "It's decided."
“…”
Wen Li felt a pang in her heart.
"Okay." The witch doctor stopped persuading him.
Since both of them have made up their minds, that's all they can do.
Besides, this is Wen Li’s family affair, so it is not convenient for him to interfere rashly.
Intervening in the cause and effect of others can easily cause backlash, and witch doctors are deeply aware of this.
But even so, he still wanted to try to keep her.
An idea flashed through his mind, and the witch doctor calmly instructed Wen Li according to the procedure: "I need to take a drop of your heart's blood."
"good."
Wen Li agreed readily, and cooperated with Arnold's operation skillfully, and quickly took out a drop of blood from her heart.
After the blood was taken out, it was placed in a bowl, only one drop.
The witch doctor asked Arnold to get some herbs, crush them and drip them into the blood from his heart to mix them together.
A strange fragrance filled the air.
It takes time to thoroughly mix the medicine and blood, and if the mixture is not perfect, the effect will be greatly reduced.
The two could only wait patiently there.
The witch doctor glanced at A'nuo who walked into the cave, then glanced at Shen Yihe, and suddenly said: "By the way, Wen Li."
Wen Li looked at him puzzledly: "Huh? What's wrong?"
The witch doctor continued stirring the mixture without stopping his hands, but he said, "Since you and Shen Yihe have dissolved your engagement, that means you have another vacant position for a beastly husband."
"Yes." Wen Li responded.
The witch doctor laughed and pointed in the direction of the cave: "What do you think of our Arnold? Arnold is pretty good, right? Do you want him to be your beast husband?"
Wen Li was stunned for a moment.
Arnold?
Before she could answer, she heard Shen Yihe next to her cough clearly.
Wen Li subconsciously looked at him, but saw that he still had no expression on his face, sitting there with his arms folded.
Did she hear it wrong?
Wen Li inexplicably withdrew her gaze.
The witch doctor asked again: "How is it? Arnold is a handsome boy, and he also has medical skills. It would be a good choice to marry him home."
As the witch doctor finished speaking, Shen Yihe's expression gradually tensed up.
The hands that were originally clasped at both sides gradually tightened and the lips were pursed.
He had a strong urge at this moment - to cover the witch doctor's mouth!
However, realizing his thought, Shen Yihe immediately frowned.
He always felt that something was starting to go wrong with him.
Wen Li listened carefully to the witch doctor's advice and said, "Doesn't Arnold like Anyuan?"
Just because Arnold likes An Yuan, Wen Li would never let him become her beastly husband.
Arnold's situation is somewhat different from Xin Yuan's.
She had seen how Arnold cared about An Yuan, and had also seen what he had done for An Yuan.
If Arnold really wanted to marry her... forget it, there's no if.
Wen Li felt uncomfortable just thinking about the sweet scenes of the two of them together before.
And Arnold doesn't meet her requirements.
Before Wen Li could open her mouth to refuse, she heard the witch doctor say, "That's already in the past!"
"We don't know when An Yuan will come back, and he may never come back. Arnold is already past the best age for marriage. If we continue to wait, I'm afraid he will really be single." The witch doctor said, shaking his head.
In this orc tribe, most males begin preparing for marriage when they reach adulthood.
Arnold's case is quite special. He was adopted by a witch doctor since he was a child. He devoted himself to studying medicine, but he also had someone he loved, which is why he has been delayed until now.
Wen Li said nothing.
I thought to myself: I don’t want to be the one taking over.
If she likes Arnold...it's not impossible.
The key is that she doesn't like Arnold.
The witch doctor looked at Wen Li eagerly, while Arnold stood not far away and did not come over immediately.
Wen Li keenly caught his figure.
Even if she wanted to refuse, she had to think of a reasonable explanation first.
She was silent for a moment, thinking about how to decline politely.
But in Shen Yihe's eyes, all this took on another meaning.
He thought Wen Li was seriously considering the witch doctor's advice.
Indeed, judging from the witch doctor's description, Arnold is a very high-quality male, ranking among the best in the entire tribe.
Although his talent did not reach S-level, his superb medical skills made up for his shortcomings. He also had a handsome appearance, which made him a perfect match for Wen Li.
What's more, Wen Li often came to the witch doctor during this period and met Arnold many times, so there was some emotional foundation between the two.
The more Shen Yihe thought about it, the more he felt that it was very likely that Wen Li would agree.
Logically this should be a good thing, but he felt a blockage in his heart, as if he had been squeezed with sour lemon juice, which was astringent and bitter, and very unpleasant.
He turned his head away, not wanting to look at Wen Li anymore, and even more unwilling to let her notice his inexplicable jealousy.
However, his subtle emotional changes had already been noticed by the witch doctor.
The witch doctor was even more confused.
These two people clearly have feelings for each other, so why do they have to dissolve the engagement?
Wen Li seems to care about Shen Yihe, and Shen Yihe obviously has Wen Li in his heart.
What irreversible thing happened between the two that forced them to dissolve their engagement?
The witch doctor couldn't figure it out, but the more he thought about it, the more curious he became. He couldn't ask directly in front of the two of them.
The witch doctor couldn't figure it out, but the more he thought about it, the more curious he became.
He couldn't ask directly in front of the two of them, so he turned to Wen Li and said, "Think about it carefully about Arnold's matter."
Then, the witch doctor handed the wooden bowl to Wen Li: "Stir this."
Wen Li felt her hand sink. Before she could react, she heard the witch doctor say to Shen Yihe, "Come with me."
After saying that, the witch doctor directly pulled Shen Yihe up and prepared to take him into his cave.
When he walked back, he caught sight of Arnold and winked at him, saying, "Arnold, go to Wen Li."
The witch doctor really wanted to bring Wen Li and Arnold together.
It had been like that from the very beginning. Although there was a bit of tentativeness now, he still hoped in his heart that the two of them could succeed.
Compared to the irresponsible An Yuan, the witch doctor felt that Wen Li was much more reliable.
Arnold received the witch doctor's gaze and walked obediently towards Wen Li.
Shen Yihe couldn't help but look back one more time, jealousy surging in his heart, but he hadn't fully realized it yet.
In this way, the witch doctor brought Shen Yihe into the cave.
There was no one around, and a faint medicinal fragrance filled the air. They were some distance away from Wen Li, so their voices would not be heard.
The witch doctor asked straight to the point, "What's going on? Why did you break off your engagement with Wen Li for no reason?"
He originally didn't intend to meddle in other people's affairs. It would be fine if the two of them really had a breakdown in their relationship.
But after observing just now, the witch doctor found that they clearly had each other in their hearts and it shouldn't have come to this.
Shen Yihe didn't say anything.
He didn't intend to tell anyone about this, let alone the witch doctor.
After a long while, he whispered, "...This was what we promised at the beginning."
The witch doctor held his forehead with a headache and asked: "Among the five of you, are you the only one who needs to dissolve the engagement?"
Shen Yihe nodded.
"Oh, I really am..." The witch doctor didn't know what to say for a moment, "Don't you like Wen Li too? Why do you have to go to this extent?"
Shen Yihe opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but felt it was unnecessary.
Even if you tell it, the other party won't understand.
The witch doctor didn't miss the bitterness that flashed across his eyes and asked tentatively, "Is there something you're hiding?"
Shen Yihe didn't answer directly, but his expression said it all.
The witch doctor saw it and didn't ask any more questions.
He just patted Shen Yihe's shoulder lightly and advised: "You have to think about it carefully."
Shen Yihe raised his eyes and looked at him, a struggle flashed in his eyes, and finally he said: "I have thought about it."
He has already thought about it.
Yes, it is the right thing to do.
He couldn't implicate Wen Li.
Shen Yihe lowered his eyes, suppressing the emotions surging in his eyes.
He believed that he would not regret it.
Must be...right.
There was a brief silence in the cave.
The witch doctor didn't know how to persuade him.
Since Shen Yihe said so, he must have made plans.
"That's it."
The witch doctor originally thought it was just a conflict and he could still mediate, but now he found that the nature of the matter was completely different.
He sighed, stood up and said, "Let's go, I'll help you dissolve the engagement."
Shen Yihe stood up, nodded, and followed the witch doctor.
After going out, the two found that Wen Li and Arnold were having a great conversation outside, and they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Why is the atmosphere here so different? It seems so much more relaxed and cheerful than theirs.
At this time, Arnold was holding a wooden bowl and stirring constantly.
At this time, Arnold was holding a wooden bowl and stirring
This wooden bowl was originally in Wen Li's hand, and now it was taken over by Arnold.
Wen Li was asking Arnold about what happened in the neighboring tribe a while ago.
Arnold knew more about the inside story than the witch doctor, and the two of them became more and more excited as they talked, to the point that they almost forgot the real purpose of their visit.
Wen Li has always been concerned about the affairs of the neighboring tribe, but she doesn't know anyone there, so she has no way of knowing much information.
She always kept what Meng Yu said in mind, and now that she finally had the chance, she asked Arnold about it.
Arnold also has his own opinion.
In particular, he also felt that the things happening in the neighboring tribe were indescribably strange, but he didn't know where to start or who to talk to.
When Wen Li asked the question, the two of them started talking and had a heated discussion.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward at first, but as the discussion deepened, it gradually became harmonious.
Wen Li even regretted not talking to Arnold about this earlier.
The two were discussing a crucial point when Shen Yihe and the witch doctor came over, forcing them to stop talking.
"You two had a good chat," the witch doctor joked.
Shen Yihe looked at Wen Li and Arnold, and after hearing the witch doctor's words, he subconsciously pursed his lips.
It felt like countless ants were gnawing at my heart, and the pain spread out in a dense mass.
"It's okay." Wen Li said with a smile.
Arnold blushed at the witch doctor's teasing, and a few blushes appeared on his pale cheeks, making him look quite handsome.
He was indeed handsome, but Wen Li didn't know why he was blushing.
But this scene became even more glaring in Shen Yihe's eyes.
The witch doctor walked up to Arnold, took the wooden bowl from his hand, and asked, "What's going on?"
Arnold handed the wooden bowl over: "It's almost done, take a look."
Wu Yi carefully examined the liquid in the wooden bowl.
The medicine man carefully checked the liquid in the bowl to make sure it was mixed evenly.
"Okay. Shen Yihe, come here." The witch doctor waved to Shen Yihe, motioning him to sit in front of him.
"I will help you dissolve the engagement now. Are you sure you have thought it through?"
He took out a silver needle with a cold glow from the toolbox, dipped it in the wooden bowl, and confirmed with Shen Yihe again.
Wen Li was also waiting for Shen Yihe's answer.
She looked at him intently, unable to explain what was going on in her mind at the moment.
Perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope, hoping that he would regret it. She didn't mind accepting him.
Shen Yihe did not answer immediately this time.
He hesitated briefly, and finally looked up at Wen Li, his eyes filled with complex and deep emotions.
The peach blossom eyes that were always bright and charming seemed to have lost some of their charm and were now only serious.
Under the gaze of the three people, Shen Yihe said seriously: "I have thought about it. Let's lift it."
His answer was within Wen Li's expectations.
She had already prepared herself mentally and maintained her facial expression, but a sense of unwillingness quietly emerged in her heart.
I always feel like I've been dumped.
Wen Li frowned hard.
"Are you sure? Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. After the marriage contract is dissolved, you and Wen Li will have nothing to do with each other anymore." The witch doctor's expression was extremely serious at this moment.
Shen Yihe's heart trembled suddenly, and he didn't know what this sentence meant at the moment.
“…I’m sure.”
Shen Yihe was extremely serious.
"good."
After the witch doctor finished speaking, he inserted the silver needle dipped in liquid into his skin.
