The Husband I Snatched Is Not Right!-Chapter 180: How... How Can It Look Like That
The pharmacy was filled with steam.
Yu Tingwan entered, the pungent smell of medicine rushing up her nose, and followed closely behind Wei Zhao.
The girl was firm-headed, her eyes darting around.
Shunzi took out the medicine box and extracted the silver needles, soaking them in strong alcohol for disinfection.
Elder Ge saw her, a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes. But on second thought, they were married, so what’s the big deal?
He instructed, "Start with a medicinal bath for half an hour. Close your eyes and rest, because the acupuncture later is going to be quite painful."
"General, speak less to conserve energy."
Yu Tingwan looked over, indeed finding a bathtub behind the screen; the water inside was brewed with some herbs, brown and thick, and somewhat pungent.
Wei Zhao had injuries, and the medicinal dregs made it hard to scoop the residue. Dressed in just thin middle clothes, Elder Ge helped him in.
Elder Ge gave Yu Tingwan a glance, "Watch the hourglass, call me after half a stick of incense."
With that said, he confidently walked around the screen and left.
Yu Tingwan, entrusted with this important task: !!
Fearing Wei Zhao’s hair would get wet from slouching along the tub edge, she looked around, took a chopstick, and went forward to gather the man’s hair, loosely tying it up in her palm.
Having done this, the girl dragged a wooden stool to the side and sat down, watching the hourglass intently.
Wei Zhao: ...
He chuckled.
Very well.
Since entering, Yu Tingwan hadn’t really looked at him.
He lowered his eyelids, tugged at the corners of his mouth, and closed his eyes to rest.
Time indeed passed quickly.
As soon as the time was up, Yu Tingwan called Elder Ge.
Elder Ge didn’t arrive, but his voice came over: "Did you see the red medicine bottle on the side cabinet? Pour all the medicine powder inside."
"Also, take the pills in the white porcelain bottle and give two for the General to swallow."
The medicine powder was black.
Once the bottle cap was opened, a faint fragrance wafted, enough to refresh the mind.
Yu Tingwan followed the instructions, taking out pills for Wei Zhao to hold in his mouth.
After completing these tasks, Yu Tingwan rounded the screen, intending to ask if there was anything else she could help with.
Then...
She saw Elder Ge lying on a chair, his leg twitching.
Yu Tingwan: ???
"You..."
Elder Ge: "What about me?"
"If something happens to the one in the tub, with so many in the Wei Family Army, each gives you a punch, I’d be a meat patty."
"Don’t worry."
Yu Tingwan gently reassured, "You should be clear about your own medical skills."
These words were comforting.
The girl walked over and poured water.
Elder Ge wasn’t thirsty, but he was willing to oblige and raised his hand to take the tea, only to see it being brought to her own mouth in an instant.
His hand hung mid-air.
Anyone else would have quickly poured another cup and handed it over.
After drinking, Yu Tingwan said softly, "You didn’t think I was pouring it for you, did you?"
"Your hand wasn’t shaking."
Yu Tingwan tilted her head, expressing difficulty: "You’re really putting me in an awkward position."
Elder Ge: ???
Who’s really being difficult here!!
Yet he couldn’t bring himself to curse at Yu Tingwan.
After all, the girl’s expression was sincere and genuinely troubled!
Elder Ge held his breath, not daring to scold Wei Zhao for marrying such a character.
But with just these people around, he quickly turned the blame towards Shunzi, who was working meticulously.
"What’s going on? How are you going about your tasks?"
Shunzi was bewildered: "Huh?"
With a worried look: "But where did I go wrong?"
This was no laughing matter!
For that, he’s doomed.
Shunzi was harsh to others, but harsher to himself, without hesitation giving himself a slap.
"You clearly instructed me, and I remembered everything, how could I still make a mistake."
"If anything happens to the General, I won’t live either!"
Flustered and helpless, Shunzi rushed over, grabbed Elder Ge, and shook him, "You tell me! There’s still time, I’ll correct it!"
Elder Ge, being lifted off the ground: ...
It’s still his fault!
————
After the medicinal bath was over, Shunzi helped Wei Zhao out.
Perhaps due to the heat, sweat formed on Wei Zhao’s brow.
The undershirt was soaking wet, still dripping, clinging to his body, faintly outlining a firm, taut physique. A superior figure, hazy, and tantalizingly visible.
Elder Ge: "Alright, go lie down."
The censer was burning something to relax the body, and the scent was delightful.
Yu Tingwan retreated to the end of the couch, ensuring she wouldn’t get in the way.
Wei Zhao looked down and started to unbutton.
His hands were long and particularly good-looking.
One button, two buttons...
His movements were unhurried, and as the middle clothes fell to the floor, his scarred chest was exposed.
His hand moved downwards, just touched the waistband when he looked up. The chopstick in his hair wobbled and fell completely.
The inky hair cascaded down, with a bit of sensual allure.
Yet Wei Zhao seemed completely indifferent, meeting Yu Tingwan’s gaze.
His hand movements continued unhurriedly. He didn’t say anything, and undressing was merely for acupuncture, but it seemed laced with obvious temptation.
But...
Yu Tingwan blinked at him. There was no admiration in her eyes, nor was there shyness.
Her eyes were clean, with no avoidance.
Wei Zhao’s failed attempt to play to the gallery: ...
So annoying.
Elder Ge was nervous inside.
Shunzi was also nervous.
The two of them didn’t sense the anomaly in the air.
Elder Ge, having waited a long while, saw that Wei Zhao hadn’t finished undressing and urged.
"Hurry up now, don’t dawdle."
He glared at Shunzi: "Aren’t you going to help? Why are you standing there dumbfounded?"
Shunzi: "I thought the General would want his wife to do it."
Otherwise, why would the General keep looking at his wife!
Surely not flirting!
Joking, our General isn’t that type of man!
"Me?"
Why didn’t you say so earlier!
Yu Tingwan didn’t overthink it and was about to go over.
Pulling down the pants, it’s not difficult.
But before she got close, she noticed that Wei Zhao’s eyes had dimmed considerably.
"Stay there."
Yu Tingwan: ...
All right.
Wei Zhao hesitated for a moment, afraid that his size might frighten Yu Tingwan.
But... recalling what Yu Tingwan had said recently, Wei Zhao’s heart turned cold again.
His emotions cooled down, and his fingers no longer hesitated, becoming much more agile.
A ’snap’ sound.
The soaked pants slipped down.
Yu Tingwan’s expression had been calm.
She was even trying hard to conceal her pity for Wei Zhao.
Men need to save face, and they’re afraid of being despised, she knew this.
He finally softened and was willing to be honest with her, who knows how long he had been conflicted about it.
She had to remain calm!
Though it was her first marriage, the girl knew quite a lot.
She knew that couples should consummate, and she had seen dogs mating from afar in the countryside.
After Hu Dazhu’s wedding, at night, Yu Tingwan could often hear Mrs. Xiao’s sounds resembling both pleasure and pain.
Village women spoke carelessly, and Yu Tingwan had also heard them talk about quite a bit of risqué stuff.
So even if none had taught her, she could vaguely guess what a wedding night entailed.
But now.
The girl finally saw something she shouldn’t have seen.
She had thought it would be a mess, but how come...
The sight and her understanding were both greatly challenged, the girl stood frozen, stark surprise written in her eyes.
Yu Tingwan covered her mouth, trying not to make a sound.
How...how could it be this long.
