Husband's Secret
Chapter 28
Side Story 02
There was the smell of disinfectant in the ward. Xie Yuchen knew it was her when he heard the familiar footsteps.
She was very punctual. Every time, she would bring two thermal lunch boxes and a thermal flask to deliver food and change shifts.
The woman who appeared at the corner of the stairs had cut her waist-length hair short. She had lost a lot of weight because of what had happened during this period of time.
In any case, Xie Yuchen felt that the woman in front of him seemed to be different from usual.
But then again, no ordinary person would be able to maintain their original naive and sweet appearance after being pulled into this kind of situation all of a sudden after experiencing so much.
However, after everything had happened, she was too calm.
Xie Yuchen felt that the woman in front of him had a ball of fire in her eyes. She had been suppressing her anger and had nowhere to release it.
His gaze moved to Wu Ye, who was lying on the hospital bed and looked miserable. His throat had been cut and his body had been fractured. In less than half a month, he had been transferred to two or three hospitals.
Although he was not at the scene, Xie Yuchen later heard from the Zhang family, who had gone to the snow mountain to clean up the traces, that the Wang family member who had cut his throat and injured Wu Ye had been shot in the throat with a crossbow arrow.
The woman in front of him had broken down once when she sent Wu Ye to the emergency room. However, the rest of the time, the woman in front of him had a gentle smile on her face.
Because the people around them could not be trusted, Xie Yuchen and Wu Ye, who had faked their deaths, did not have anyone by their side.
Many things had to be done personally. Qi Yu had been working as a nurse during this period of time to take care of Wu Ye personally.
It seemed that the Wang family had really frightened her. She had to personally take care of everything about Wu Ye before she could feel at ease.
Wu Ye could not leave his side. When Xie Yuchen came to take care of him every day, he could still taste her cooking.
Her cooking was not as good as Xiuxiu's. It seemed that Wu Ye must have cooked all the food at home.
Xie Yuchen's intuition told him that after his childhood friend's body recovered, he would be greeted by a huge storm.
Strangely enough, Wu Ye fell into a coma for a long time after his condition stabilized.
At first, everyone was worried that Wu Ye had hurt his head when he fell off the cliff. However, after a careful examination, the doctor said that there was nothing seriously wrong with Wu Ye's body.
Perhaps it was because he had been too careless with his body these past few years that all his problems, big and small, suddenly appeared.
Wu Ye needed to rest in bed for a period of time.
"I brought you some food. Thank you for your hard work."
Qi Yu placed the thermal lunch box in her hand beside Xie Yuchen. He had stayed by Wu Ye's side for half the night, and it was very tiring for him. Therefore, Qi Yu tried her best to make the food as delicious as possible.
Her gaze did not linger on Xie Yuchen for long. Instead, she stared intently at the man lying on the hospital bed.
"Take your time. I'll go check on him."
Qi Yu said softly. Recently, Wu Ye had been discharged from the ICU, but he was still unconscious most of the time.
He was rarely awake, but this was good.
She was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would use domestic violence against her husband on the hospital bed.
When Qi Yu saw Wu Ye's throat being slit and then kicked off the cliff, she felt as if her heart was being squeezed by someone. Her anger and blood froze together.
The man in front of her had a thick bandage wrapped around his neck. Because he had been exposed to the wind and sun in the desert for too long, his face was still red.
Wu Ye looked very obedient when he was sleeping. His eyelashes were also long.
Qi Yu pulled the chair closer to Wu Ye's hospital bed and kissed Wu Ye's lips. "Mr. Wu, good afternoon."
She unscrewed the lid of the thermal flask and looked at the golden liquid inside with an expressionless face.
Wu Ye would have to drink this for a while longer. After he finished drinking it, all his diseases would be taken away.
His body would become healthier, healthier than before.
And she would spend less and less time with him.
Qi Yu asked Zhang Haiqi. She said that Wu Ye could actually hear her in this state.
Therefore, after watching Wu Ye completely absorb the liquid in the thermal flask, she took Wu Ye's hand and began to talk about the recent things in her life. "Wu Ye, I haven't been home for so long. Do you think the lettuce I planted has withered?"
"Fortunately, I had the foresight to save a lot of manuscripts before I went out. Otherwise, the editor would probably think that I suddenly died at home.
But unfortunately, I didn't learn much from Second Uncle. I'm a little disappointed. "
"I just saw your physical examination report. Your physical condition is really not good.
You really can't smoke anymore, you know?
Don't always do such dangerous things in the future. Do you know that when I saw you fall off the cliff, I almost wanted to jump down with you? "
"Wu Ye, do you know that I've had a hard time chasing after your footsteps all the way?
You can't always walk in front of me and let me chase after you just because I like you. Haven't you ever thought that one day I'll be like you if I learn bad things? "
"If I suddenly disappeared and lost all contact with you, would you look for me?"
Qi Yu rubbed her eyes. "I'm not a scumbag like you. If I were to leave, I would choose to leave without any worries."
"In fact, you've always been tricked by Uncle San. Your operation at that time didn't succeed at all.
You lied to me every day. Look at how you've been tricked by Uncle San. "
"Mr. Wu, I really love you.
So this time, it's your turn to wait for me at home, okay? I'll come back safely. "
Before Qi Yu left, she kissed Wu Ye's lips again. The food was left there for Wu Ye to eat when he woke up.
Xie Yuchen had already gone back. Qi Yu said goodbye to Wong Meng, who was standing at the door. "I'm going to leave for a while. You stay here and watch over your boss."
Wong Meng nodded. After he was fired by Wu Ye, he was hired by Qi Yu.
These days, it was hard to find a comprehensive talent who could do anything with a salary of 2,000 yuan a month. Qi Yu would not let him go at this time.
It was said that Zhang Haiqi's temporary residence was the address of a fellow villager. Since she knew that the age calculation of the Zhang family was different from that of ordinary people, she guessed that the "old friend" that these people talked about was probably really an "old friend".
Every time she went upstairs and saw the heads soaked in formalin, she felt uncomfortable, especially when the faces of the heads were exactly the same as Wu Ye's.
When Qi Yu pushed the door open and went in, Zhang Haiqi was standing in front of the table, looking at the map in front of her.
Qi Yu walked closer and found that the paper on the table was dark brown. It looked very old.
"This is the place we're going. I spent so many years collecting information and finally found this map." Zhang Haiqi's face was full of smiles. It was the first time that Qi Yu saw such a happy expression on her face.
During these days of contact, Qi Yu felt that these old people who had lived for a very long time were more or less obsessed with some things than ordinary people.
For example, Qi Yu found that Zhang Haiqi had a very flexible tongue and a mosaic tattoo on her body.
Another example was Zhang Haiqi's fellow villager who had a lot of houses all over the country. She liked to find people who looked like Wu Ye all over the world and cut off their heads.
"Hailou has already prepared the equipment. When Wu Ye's body recovers, let's set off." Zhang Haiqi ate a mouthful of takeout and said excitedly.
"Okay." Qi Yu answered quickly. She had promised Zhang Haiqi.
After Zhang Haiqi cured Wu Ye's illness, she would follow Zhang Haiqi to a place.
It was very fair, even if it was a life for a life.
On the day that Wu Ye's body fully recovered, Qi Yu found an excuse to send Xie Yuchen away.
She watched Wu Ye spit out countless red meaty things, and then gently wiped the filth from his mouth with a tissue.
She thoughtfully gave Wu Ye warm water to rinse his mouth, and then pushed Mr. Wu, whose eyes were wet, onto the bed.
Wu Ye was still in a daze. During this time, he could feel that his body was getting better.
Before Wu Ye recovered, Qi Yu had always wanted to abuse Mr. Wu to let him know why the flowers were so red.
However, now that she saw Wu Ye lying on the hospital bed, looking particularly charming and pitiful, all her anger disappeared.
"Xiao Yu, am I dreaming?"
Wu Ye's voice was a little hoarse. He looked at Qi Yu, who was straddling him, with a confused look in his eyes.
"Yes, you're dreaming."
Qi Yu liked the innocence that Wu Ye unconsciously revealed. She deliberately bit Wu Ye's lips fiercely.
Wu Ye definitely didn't know how excited Qi Yu was when he looked like this. She wanted to do something to him right now.
"A wet dream," Qi Yu vaguely added, and the rest of the words disappeared between their lips and teeth.
Qi Yu's hand slid down Wu Ye's lower abdomen into his loose pants. The lovers who had been separated for almost four months hugged each other again.
Qi Yu changed her clothes and walked out of the hospital's back door. Zhang Haiqi's car was already waiting for her.
Zhang Hailou, who was acting as the driver, seemed to be a little impatient. He chewed something in his mouth and looked at Qi Yu sitting in the back seat. "What took you so long? Where did you go?"
He went to keep his seed.
"Of course, I went to say goodbye to my lover. I forgot that you've been single for 50 or 60 years. You don't understand." Qi Yu changed her position to make her sit more comfortably.
Zhang Haiqi threw a big bag of food to her. "Hailou ordered takeout. Eat something to replenish your energy."
Qi Yu found the takeout and began to eat. She knew that this journey would be very tough and tiring.
She had to recharge her energy and rest well so that she could go home unscathed.
Wu Ye felt that he had been dreaming for a long time, and the last erotic dream was very clear.
After escaping death, Wu Ye had a lot to say to Qi Yu. However, when he opened his eyes, he found that he was surrounded by people except for Qi Yu.
Xiao Hua, Second Uncle, Fatty, and Wong Meng were also there.
Wu Ye looked at Second Uncle, who had a serious expression, and asked, "Second Uncle, where is Xiao Yu?"
Wu Erbai shook his head. When he entered the room, he saw the filth on the floor and the residual golden liquid in the thermos. How could he not understand?
He didn't expect that his niece-in-law could really find this legendary thing. How much effort did that woman from the Zhang family put into this matter?
Wu Ye glanced at everyone, but Xiao Hua and Fatty just shook their heads.
Wong Meng's eyes flickered. In the end, he reluctantly handed the thing to Wu Ye. "The boss asked me to give this to you. She said that she had signed it."
The bad feeling in Wu Xie's heart grew stronger and stronger. His hands trembled as he opened the folder. Two familiar pieces of paper appeared before him.
It was the divorce agreement that he left in the safe before he left. Wu Ye turned to the second page and found that Qi Yu had signed her name.
His Xiao Yu wanted to divorce him.
Wu Ye sat on the bed in a daze. He stared at the familiar words on the paper for a long time, as if he had lost his soul.
After absorbing Pheromone, Wu Ye's personality had changed. After knowing that Qi Yu had disappeared, he became even more paranoid.
He wanted to find Qi Yu like a madman. Both the legal and illegal gangs released news that they were looking for her with a high reward.
However, there was no news. Qi Yu seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.
The Wang family was completely destroyed. Li Chu was also rescued.
The ten-year promise was up. He successfully took the little brother out from behind the bronze door.
Wu Ye didn't work in the field anymore. Instead, he washed his hands in a gold basin. Just like Qi Yu had hoped, he sold antiques and wrote some things.
Wu Ye lay in his small shop and looked at the pink gilded cover in his hand. This was the book that Qi Yu had prepared to publish before she disappeared.
It was not a novel, but their lives. Wu Ye touched the words "Mr. Wu's Observation Diary" on the spine of the book and smiled.
Wong Meng looked at the boss worriedly. It had been so long. In fact, everyone knew that the boss's wife probably couldn't be found.
However, the boss didn't want to believe it, so he continued to deceive himself.
The book in his hand was almost torn apart, but he still refused to let it go.
Everyone was at a loss. Even his boss's good friend, Cheung Chi-ling, shook his head when he saw this scene.
When Zhang Hailou appeared at the door of the shop, it was already dusk. He was in a mess, but he didn't care at all.
Cheung Chi-ling looked at the rubbing that Wong Meng had received in the shop. He raised his head and looked outside the door.
When he saw Zhang Hailou, Wu Ye suddenly sat up from the recliner.
Cheung Chi-ling, who smelled the thick scent of blood on Zhang Hailou, frowned. He knew that Zhang Hailou was seriously injured.
"Where's Xiao Yu?
Why the f * ck did you come back alone?
Where's my Xiao Yu? "Wu Ye grabbed Zhang Hailou's collar. He was very agitated.
Zhang Hailou stumbled because of Wu Ye's grab. He tried to stand up straight. Then, with his bloodied hands, he took out a can from his bag. "She said that she wanted to go home. I promised her that I would send her back to you."
"Wu Ye, I owe you my life."
Zhang Hailou looked at the man whose eyes were bloodshot. Wu Ye, who was in a huge shock, couldn't understand what this sentence meant.
After Zhang Hailou handed Qi Yu's ashes to Wu Ye, he felt a lot more relaxed. After fulfilling his promise to Qi Yu, he could go down to the afterlife to find Zhang Haiqi.
To him, this was the best way to free himself.
The ashes in his hand were heavy. Even though Wu Ye had been used to betrayal, separation, and death for so many years, he still felt like his heart was being squeezed.
