The two quickly brought in the things Chu Lian had sent, all of which were of top quality—the belongings of the wealthy were indeed different.
After sending the carriage away, as soon as they entered the courtyard, Xiaoxiao turned to Yang Ming and said, "Honey, after you finish your medicine, you should leave."
"..." Xiaoxiao was speechless, this blockhead, "With Sister Wang , I need to take care of her tonight. You’ll just have to squeeze in with your younger brother at the rented courtyard."
Although Yang Ming was reluctant upon hearing this, he had no choice but to agree.
The two returned to their room to find Wang Xiangxiang still sound asleep, so they decided to prepare the medicine outside. Now they were completely like medicine jars, taking doses in the morning and evening, and also prepared Wang Xiangxiang’s fever-reducing medicine, keeping it warm for when she would wake up.
After Yang Ming had taken his medicine, he hugged his wife from behind and whispered, "Wife."
Xiaoxiao quickly broke free, "Stop fooling around, Sister Wang is still here."
Yang Ming still hugged his wife from behind, resting his head on her shoulder like a child, "Wife, I can’t bear to leave you."
"..." Really, this man... it’s just for one night, what’s there to miss, "Just go, stop nagging, you’ll be back tomorrow."
Yang Ming kissed his wife’s cheek from behind, then reluctantly let go of her, "If you can’t handle it, call Yang Qiu for help."
Seeing Yang Ming leave, Xiaoxiao’s lips curved up high, her heart sweet as if she had eaten honey.
Inside, Wang Xiangxiang was actually already awake. She hadn’t made a sound, instead silently listening to the interactions of the couple in the outer room. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions, and tears frequently streamed down her cheeks. She feared she could never be as happy as Xiaoxiao in this lifetime.
She closed her eyes, waiting for Xiaoxiao to enter the room. After Xiaoxiao busied herself for a while, she then pretended to wake up.
"Sister Wang, are you awake? Are you hungry? Shall we eat first?"
Wang Xiangxiang didn’t speak, but nodded. Xiaoxiao quickly went out to fetch the meal.
Once Xiaoxiao left, Wang Xiangxiang sat up, her entire body aching as if it had fallen apart, the pain especially intense in that area.
She wasn’t foolish, she was a smart girl, she knew she had lost her virginity, and although she wasn’t completely unconscious, she had initiated it herself.
She had been so wanton, she couldn’t accept this harsh reality. She probably couldn’t find true love in this lifetime, as she was no longer intact.
Xiaoxiao brought the food in and placed it on the table, then poured water for Wang Xiangxiang, "Sister Wang, you must be starving, eat up."
Wang Xiangxiang still didn’t speak and started eating directly.
This silent Wang Xiangxiang made Xiaoxiao feel something was off, yet since Wang Xiangxiang herself didn’t mention what had happened today, how could she rub salt in the wounds?
It just so happened she still didn’t know how to help Chu Lian cover up, so she didn’t ask and she didn’t mention it either.
As she ate, Wang Xiangxiang thought, since Xiaoxiao wasn’t bringing it up, she probably knew everything. What face did she have to talk about it then? She could only accept her misfortune.
After the meal, Xiaoxiao felt Wang Xiangxiang’s forehead, still very hot, "Sister Wang, you have a high fever, wait here, I’ll fetch your medicine."
Wang Xiangxiang nodded. Once Xiaoxiao brought the medicine back, Wang Xiangxiang drank it in one go. At this moment, where could she feel that the medicine was bitter? The bitterness in her heart was a hundred times worse than that of the medicine.
