Chapter 431:1 Get Nervous When Youre Anxious

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After spending so much time together, how could Huangfu Lingyao not know her temperament?

This was one of those moments when you couldnt touch her limits; she would really get angry!

With this att.i.tude keeping him outside, he reluctantly withdrew his long legs from the windowsill and said, Alright then, Ill stay here with you. If youre uncomfortable anywhere, just tell me. If you want something to eat, Ill go get it for you!

When he said he would stay, he meant it.

He even brought a narrow little pallet and placed it in the corridor. He sat on it during the day, accompanying his ailing wife in isolation, and slept outside at night.

When he heard a slight cough from inside the room, he became extremely anxious. Wife, how are you feeling? Is it getting worse?

At first, she did not respond, which made Huangfu Lingyao even more anxious. Wife, please answer me. Dont scare me!

He was truly afraid she might scare him to death!

This young lady was obviously a very organized and reliable person.

But she worried him too much, like the time when she made a big fuss about the injuries on his back after a whipping, or the time she insisted on tarnis.h.i.+ng the reputation of the Liu family even if it meant enduring 30 whips

When it came to treating someones illness, she didnt care about getting dirty, didnt fear hards.h.i.+p, and didnt mind the risk of infection!

How could he possibly feel at ease?

From this side of the window came these nervous words, and Liu s.h.i.+mi sighed helplessly, No, you dont have to be so anxious. This is a normal condition. Im taking medicine three times a day and applying ointment. The recovery from this illness takes time, but it will get better sooner or later.

Oh, the silly fellow seemed to be a bit more at ease and lay back down.

But every time there was a sound from inside the room, he would immediately sit up and lean on the windowsill to ask questions.

Over time, it evolved into him asking from the bedside, Wife, are you feeling uncomfortable now? Do you want some water? Anything to eat?

Liu s.h.i.+mei could not help but feel helpless, and her heart warmed even more!

What an affectionate pup he was!

He knew that this illness could be overwhelming. Even if someone witnessed a perfectly healthy person like Liu s.h.i.+mei getting infected, they might run away in fear.

But not her puppy.

He not only did not run away but wished he could stay by her side, if she hadnt firmly forbidden it, she was sure he would have glued himself to her.

She tried to rea.s.sure him, Lingyao, dont worry. I feel much better after taking the medicine. You dont need to be anxious. With this illness, the more anxious you are, the more likely there will be problems, you know?

Thinking about it, she had an excellent mindset. It was the pup who was nervous. She continued, You dont need to be in such a hurry. When youre in a hurry, I get nervous, and when Im nervous, its harder to treat this illness. Do you understand?

Of course, this was a statement to persuade a child!

Did Huangfu Lingyao believe her?

He did not believe it in his heart, but on the surface, he had to pretend he did!

Oh, he responded gloomily, leaning on the window and watching the room.

He couldnt see her when she lay in bed. He couldnt even see her shadow. Was he worried?

Definitely.

But what was even more serious than worry was that he was getting a bit angry!

Liu s.h.i.+mei was doing what she liked, and there was nothing wrong with wanting to progress in the field of medicine. However, Huangfu Lingyao had never thought that she would be so determined!

Knowing that she might get infected, she still plunged right in!

Huangfu Lingyao was a forward-thinking person. Since he had realized that his future path would not be easy many years ago, he had chosen this path, determined to seek the answers he wanted during this period of lurking.

Therefore, with Liu s.h.i.+meis situation and after going through this experience, he had thought about many things.
