Chapter 2223 - 2225: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi

Fu Yi gripped her wrist with his large hand; the delicate bones beneath felt as if a mere squeeze could snap them. So fragile, in need of protection.

"Sir Nie couldn’t leave his wife because she was afraid of the dark, and I’m the same, I can’t leave you alone in Capital City."

Hmm...

His unwavering gaze was fixed on her, making Jiang Nuan’s ears burn while her face turned an even deeper shade of red, like a ripe tomato.

"I’m fine."

As soon as Jiang Nuan spoke, she realized her voice was soft and airy, like a cloud in the sky, lacking any credibility.

She took a deep breath to steady herself, meeting his eyes, "Fu Yi, I’m fine, you don’t need to worry about me. It’s hard enough that Sir Nie has a way to heal your leg, why are you hesitating? The leg is definitely more important!"

Fu Yi’s thin lips pressed into a straight line as he buried his head in her neck, mumbling, "Tomorrow we’ll go to the civil affairs bureau to remarry."

The warm breath in her neck made Jiang Nuan giggle as she pushed him away, "Stop talking, it’s too ticklish."

The ticklish feeling in her neck made her unable to stop laughing, and the flush on her face spread from her ears down to her neck, even reaching toward her chest...

Suppressing her laughter, Jiang Nuan took a deep breath, becoming more serious, "There’s no rush to remarry, we can do that anytime. The civil affairs bureau isn’t going anywhere. But Sir Nie is different, it’s fortunate that Miss Rong knows him. Sir Nie specifically returned to the country to examine your leg. Such a good opportunity is hard to come by again..."

The man lifted his head from her neck, his dark eyes like whirlpools drawing her in, his voice hoarse and low, "So you hope I go to Belgium?"

Jiang Nuan was momentarily stunned; how did it turn into her wanting that?

She propped herself up against him, her tone soft, "I hope you get better. Fu Yi, I know what you’re thinking, I don’t care if your leg becomes disabled, I would love you even if you were. But I don’t want your leg to prevent you from realizing your ambitions! That’s what I’m afraid of, not your disability! I’m afraid you’ll have regrets."

"..."

The petite woman beneath him, bright-eyed and with flushed ears, spoke in a soft voice like a delicate flower, yet so bright and dazzling that he suddenly felt even more reluctant to leave.

Jiang Nuan, "A year isn’t long, it’ll pass quickly. Sir Nie didn’t say you can’t have anyone looking after you, just that you can’t be visited. We’ll still be able to see each other."

Fu Yi propped himself up on one arm, his expression contemplative.

Jiang Nuan seized the opportunity, continuing, "And I just returned to the country, I have to sort out my work first. If nothing happens, I’ll stay at the provincial hospital. As a newcomer, even if I have a mentor watching over me, it’s not good to be late or leave early often. If you stayed in the country, I’d definitely not be able to control myself from sticking with you, and I’d have no mind for work."

"I wish you would be with me every day."

Low, husky.

Jiang Nuan, however, breathed a sigh of relief, smiling as she looked up, wrapping her arms around his neck, stars hidden in her eyes, softly cooing, "Then recover quickly, so I can be with you every day sooner!"

Bingo, she’s such a clever little rascal, surely he had nothing to counter that!

Indeed, Fu Yi had nothing more to say, but the look in his eyes grew deeper, darker, turbulent like hooks pulling at her.
