In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 1303 Is the wife already planning to marry him?

"Your Majesty, this... Young Master Wenren, he... is unconscious, he probably can't let go of his hand."

"What do you mean by 'can't let go'? Are you planning to let your wife be held captive like this all night? Your wife needs to rest early and recuperate," Cheng Yan said, frowning.

“Chengyan, it’s not that I made him unable to relax, but if I insert the needle again, his hand will have problems. His left arm hasn’t been healed yet, and I can’t let his right hand get damaged too, can I?” Chengyao said helplessly as he pulled out the silver needles.

Looking at her hand that was being held, Su Yueyao heard Cheng Yao's words and said helplessly, "Let's leave it like this for now. He still has a fever. He'll let me go when the fever goes down."

"What the lady says is possible. The lady can talk to him more and let him slowly let go of her hand."

"okay, I get it."

"Your Majesty, I'll go and prepare some other medicines."

"We're here, you go ahead and do your work! I'll have Chengyan call you if anything comes up."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Cheng Yao said and then turned and left.

Meanwhile, Wenren Qichi, who was by the bedside, was still talking nonsense intermittently. Sometimes he would tell her to run away, sometimes he would tell her to hide, and sometimes he would call out "Queen, Queen".

Looking at him like this, Su Yueyao sighed, "I didn't know he would care about me so much. He's only met me a few times. I don't know what to do with such deep feelings."

"Don't think too much, my lady. You've been through so much these past two days. When people are stressed, they tend to think about what just happened."

"There is no right or wrong in feelings. Just because one party gives more or likes more doesn't mean the other party should feel wronged, especially when the wife is a woman." Xingchen gently patted Su Yueyao's back to comfort her.

"Yes, my lady. The medicine also says that the redness and swelling of Young Master Wenren's wound, which caused the fever, was caused by applying some other medicine."

"Maybe he used a self-inflicted injury ruse to soften his wife's heart."

"If it's a ruse to help him heal, I can accept it," Su Yueyao said with a sigh.

Regarding Wenren Qichi's situation, he lost an arm because of her, and she still felt guilty. This heavy feeling weighed on her, making her feel quite uncomfortable.

Perhaps in the end, she will marry him, but she won't be able to tell whether it's out of guilt or because she truly loves him.

Xingchen and Chengyan fell silent upon hearing Su Yueyao's words. On the surface, the wife seemed to have let go of her worries, but she still felt guilty for the injuries Wenren Xichi sustained while saving her.

"Your Majesty... get out of the way..."

Su Yueyao felt her hand being pulled tightly again. Coming to her senses, she grasped his hand and gently coaxed him, "It's okay, it's okay, I dodged it, I dodged it, I'm not hurt."

As if hearing this, Wenren Qichi on the bed quieted down and her breathing became much more even.

Seeing that it was working, Su Yueyao gently coaxed him.

"I'm fine now, Wenren, you need to get better. I'll be waiting for you to heal."

“It’s alright…”

Su Yueyao sat there for almost an hour, constantly comforting him. Every time she loosened her grip, he would immediately grab her tightly as if afraid she would run away.

Su Yueyao yawned; she was tired from sitting like this.

“My lady, how about I have someone bring over the soft couch so you can sleep for a while, and Chengyan and I will keep an eye on things?”

Su Yueyao nodded without refusing, her back was a little sore from sitting.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yan immediately went to the door and ordered someone to bring over a soft couch.

Su Yueyao yawned and said to Xingchen, "Xingchen, you and Chengyan can take turns keeping me company for a while. You should also go and rest for a bit. You've both been busy these past few days."

“My lady, don’t worry about us. We need to observe him for a while to see if he will catch a fever again.”

Su Yueyao nodded, and the people outside quickly brought over a soft couch. Su Yueyao lay down on it almost without hesitation.

Finally, Su Yueyao lay down on the soft couch and fell asleep, one hand held tightly by Wenren Qichi.

Xingchen covered Su Yueyao with the blanket and looked at Wenren Qichi.

"Lord Xing, is the mistress already planning to marry him?"

"It's hard to say. The wife probably still has doubts, but I feel that the chances of her marrying him are more or less right."

"Alright! I also think the wife will marry him."

Hearing Cheng Yan's somewhat sullen tone, Xing Chen comforted him, saying, "Cheng Yan, you should have known from the moment you married the wife that she wouldn't only have you, and she wouldn't stop marrying other men after marrying you."

“I know. I entered the family later, and you were all before me. So, from the moment I wanted to marry the Lady, I had already accepted your existence. But Young Master Wenren was behind me. When I saw how heartbroken my wife was for him, I felt a little bitter and choked up.”

"I...I was like that before too, but I'll get used to it eventually. I support the wife marrying the husband because I can't always be with her. So when the master arranged for Yan Xi and the others to enter the house, I made myself calm down."

"I care more about my wife's safety and whether she can live well than how many husbands she marries. So I am very grateful to Wenren Qichi for taking that arrow for my wife without regard for anything else. I was close to my wife at the time, and by the time I reacted, he had already protected her."

"In just a split second, my wife was injured right beside me. I really..."

"Xingce Jun, that wasn't your fault. We were all distracted by Xing Wu, who had just been rescued. My men and your men were all around us. Nobody expected an assassin to launch a sneak attack," Cheng Yan said, still shaken.

After a while, Cheng Yan said with a smile, "After listening to what Xing Ce Jun said, I feel less choked up and I don't think I can't accept him as much anymore."

"It's good that you've thought it through. I'll keep watch for the first half of the night, and you can come and keep watch for the second half," Xingchen said with a smile.

"Okay! I'll take a nap first, then it'll be your turn."

"Mmm," Xingchen hummed in response.

. . . . . . . . . .

The next day, just as dawn broke, Wenren Qichi, who was lying in bed, slowly opened her eyes. Just as she was about to move, she looked down at her hands and followed her gaze.

He found Su Yueyao sleeping soundly on the soft couch, while Cheng Yan sat on a stool next to her with his eyes closed as if resting. When he looked over, he immediately opened his eyes.

"Awake?" Cheng Yan saw Wenren Qichi walk to the bedside after opening his eyes and subconsciously reached out to touch his forehead.

"The fever has subsided."

Wenren Qichi was still a little dazed and hadn't reacted yet. Just as he was about to utter a word, Chengyan interrupted him and said softly, "Keep your voice down. Your wife stayed by your side all day yesterday and just slept a little better. It's the same if you tell me if there's anything."
