Female-dominated society: My husband is clingy and I can't shake him off

Chapter 298 The Body is Like an Ox



Chapter 298 The Body is Like an Ox

As if telepathically connected, Shen Ziche in Feihua Pavilion also looked up towards the direction of Yingkelou.

In that instant, Shen Ziche wondered how Duoduo was doing.

He quickly gave a self-deprecating laugh, rubbed his temples, and the dark circles under his eyes were clearly visible.

……

Shen Zicen followed Qian Duoduo's gaze and saw Feihua Pavilion in the distance.

He pouted at Qian Duoduo and asked sweetly, "Do you miss your brother?"

Qian Duoduo did not deny it, saying, "I'm a little worried about him."

Shen Zicen knew what she was worried about; her brother hadn't been doing well since Duoduo left.

To be precise, everyone is looking increasingly haggard.

Although Shen Zicen was jealous, she wasn't petty or incapable of distinguishing right from wrong.

"Why don't we go see my brother?"

Qian Duoduo shook her head, turned to look at Shen Zicen, and promised, "These next few days, I'm all yours. It's not fair to give my time to others."

Besides, she had already visited Yanli and Jingmo, so it would be too unfair for her to visit Ache as well.

Shen Zicen's nose tingled, and her voice was muffled, as if she was about to cry.

"I do not mind."

Qian Duoduo looked at Shen Zicen and shook her head firmly.

“I care. I’m afraid I’m not good enough to you. I’ll stay with you for the next two days, and then I’ll go see A-Che the day after tomorrow.”

Shen Zicen hugged Qian Duoduo excitedly. Actually, her words were enough for him. He just needed to know that she cared about him.

"Then you're mine for the next two days."

Shen Zicen thought that since there were only two days left, he must spend as much time as possible with Duoduo.

Qian Duoduo and Shen Zicen walked hand in hand down the street. Although they were wandering aimlessly, they were both incredibly content.

When they reached the entrance of Jishetang, the two exchanged a glance and walked in tacitly.

Qian Duoduo went to see Doctor Wang to find some high-quality ointment to remove A-Cen's scars.

She knew he still cared quite a bit about his appearance.

"Mother~"

As soon as Qian Duoduo entered from the front yard, she called out to Doctor Wang.

Doctor Wang's hand trembled as he took the pulse. The old lady who was seeing the doctor couldn't help but tease Doctor Wang when she heard Qian Duoduo's voice.

"Dr. Wang is so lucky. He not only has a son, but also a daughter."

Doctor Wang glanced sideways at Qian Duoduo. If Qian Duoduo weren't there, she might have praised her.

But now Qian Duoduo is looking at her expectantly, waiting for her to praise her, so she doesn't want to.

"That's it."

Even so, a slight smile appeared on Dr. Wang's lips.

Qian Duoduo sat dejectedly on a stool to the side, "What do you mean 'just so-so'? Am I that great!"

Dr. Wang ignored her; she knew that Qian Duoduo must have something to say to her.

Sure enough, no sooner had the old lady left than Qian Duoduo sat down on the stool opposite Doctor Wang.

"This is where the patient sits."

Qian Duoduo coughed twice, pretending to be sick. "Ahem, Dr. Wang, I'm sick too. Could you get me some medicine?"

Dr. Wang looked at Qian Duoduo and saw that he had a rosy complexion and plenty of energy, and did not look sick at all.

"Don't disturb my doctor's appointment."

Doctor Wang was about to speak and let the people behind him in.

Qian Duoduo stopped her, "No need to call anymore, there's no one behind us."

She's not the kind of person who cuts in line; she must have chosen carefully before coming in.

When Dr. Wang heard that no one was behind him, he looked at Qian Duoduo.

"what happened to you?"

Qian Duoduo didn't say it directly, but instead asked Doctor Wang to take her pulse.

"Mother, why don't you take my pulse and you'll know?"

Qian Duoduo was quite curious about what this body was like.

Doctor Wang sighed; it had indeed been a long time since she had taken her pulse.

When Dr. Wang placed his hand on Qian Duoduo's pulse, Qian Duoduo's heart began to beat faster involuntarily.

Seeing Dr. Wang's brows gradually furrow, I became even more nervous.

Oh no, could there be something wrong with her?

Dr. Wang remained silent, quietly taking Qian Duoduo's pulse, and occasionally shook his head as he watched her nervous expression.

This head shake nearly scared Qian Duoduo's heart out.

Could she have contracted some incurable disease?

After a long while, Dr. Wang finally stopped, and Qian Duoduo spoke up.

"Mother, how am I? Is there anything wrong with me?"

Doctor Wang looked at Qian Duoduo meaningfully, and only spoke when Qian Duoduo's patience was about to run out.

"Your body is as strong as an ox's, what problems could you possibly have!"

Qian Duoduo patted his chest in relief, thinking that traditional Chinese medicine practitioners really liked to act mysterious when they were clearly fine.

"That's good! That's good!"

Dr. Wang interrupted Qian Duoduo's excited mood, "If there's anything wrong with it, it's that..."

Doctor Wang looked Qian Duoduo up and down, a hint of emotion flashing in his eyes that Qian Duoduo couldn't understand.

"You've been indulging in excessive sexual activity lately, you should..."

Before Dr. Wang could finish speaking, Qian Duoduo stood up and covered Dr. Wang's mouth.

Her face turned red. She shouldn't have been so impulsive as to let Doctor Wang take her pulse.

Dr. Wang pulled her hand away and looked at her with disdain.

"Hehe, Mom~ I actually came to get medicine."

Dr. Wang gave me an "I already knew that" look and said, "Go ahead and tell me."

"Mom, do we have any scar-removing ointment that works really well?"

She didn't know who Qian Duoduo was for, but she still took her to the pharmacy.

Dr. Wang took a white porcelain bottle from the cabinet and handed it to Qian Duoduo.

Qian Duoduo's eyes were fixed on the box behind her. "Mom, isn't there anything better?"

Dr. Wang felt that Qian Duoduo was like a robber.

"I'll keep that; I'll need it."

She kept only two bottles of the top-grade ointment. She gave one to Shen Zicen and planned to keep the other for Wang Jingmo to remove the scar on his stomach.

"Mother, you have no use for it, so why don't you let me use it?"

Doctor Wang slapped away Qian Duoduo's hand that was tugging at his clothes.

"You don't need something that good."

After much pleading and cajoling, Dr. Wang finally gave her the ointment.

The main reason is that Dr. Wang felt that even if he left it for Wang Jingmo, he might not necessarily need it.

……

"Ah Cen, what brings you here too?"

They arrived early today, and Su Yanli is still here with Wang Jingmo.

Shen Zicen looked at Su Yanli and Wang Jingmo, then at Wang Jingmo's stomach, "Yanli, you found out too?"

Su Yanli nodded, "But..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Jingmo grasped Su Yanli's hand.

Shen Zicen walked to the bedside. "Jingmo, why don't you just tell Duoduo?"

Wang Jingmo was so frightened that he shook his head repeatedly, biting his lower lip and shrinking back.

“Jingmo, I told Duoduo about my scar yesterday. She didn’t despise me, and she believes I won’t either…”

"That's different."

Wang Jingmo's voice trembled; he couldn't believe Qian Duoduo would agree to him having the child.

Su Yanli listened to the conversation between Shen Zicen and Wang Jingmo, trying her best to extract information.

He was still in shock from Shen Zicen's words. He couldn't believe that the scar was real. How painful it must have been!

But soon, he saw Shen Zicen about to speak again to persuade Wang Jingmo, so he quickly grabbed Shen Zicen's hand, signaling him to stop him from saying anything more.

Wang Jingmo's current emotions are not suitable for being overly emotional.

Both of them were worried about Wang Jingmo's situation, but Shen Zicen listened to Su Yanli and skipped the topic.

It wasn't until Qian Duoduo came to call them for dinner that Su Yanli realized Qian Duoduo had also come.
