Chapter 335 The Prince's Mystery: The Cannon Fodder Bride Forced into a Substitute Marquis'
Su Jinyue had explored Shen Huaizhi's courtyard thoroughly over the past two days. Although the exterior of the courtyard was simple, the interior was quite extraordinary.
All the furniture and utensils were understated yet luxurious and quite valuable. If Lord Shen didn't value them, why would he go to such lengths to prepare these for Shen Huaizhi?
However, according to Shen Huaizhi, Lord Shen rarely visits him and often ignores him.
Su Jinyue's mind was completely blank. What was Lord Shen thinking? She just couldn't understand it.
Shen Huaizhi couldn't see Su Jinyue's face clearly in the darkness, but he could sense that Su Jinyue was worried and sad for him.
Shen Huaizhi couldn't help but speak up to comfort her, "Don't worry, my body can still hold up. They don't want me to die, so I'm safe for now. It's just that I'm a burden to you..."
Su Jinyue couldn't bear to hear Shen Huaizhi say these things. She stepped forward and covered Shen Huaizhi's mouth, stopping him, saying, "Don't talk about being a burden or not. I can cure your illness and the poison you've been poisoned!"
Shen Huaizhi smiled as he looked in Su Jinyue's direction. Although he couldn't see Su Jinyue's exact expression, he could imagine her determination and seriousness from her blurry outline.
Shen Huaizhi stretched out his long, slender hand, grabbed the hand that Su Jinyue was using to cover her mouth, and rubbed it in his hand.
"I never expected that my wife would be such a skilled doctor. She was able to diagnose my illness at a glance and even cure me."
Su Jinyue was a little awkward; she felt uneasy about Shen Huaizhi praising her like that.
Su Jinyue leaned closer to Shen Huaizhi and whispered her assurance: "Don't doubt me, my medical skills are quite good."
However, the situation in the Marquis's residence is too complicated, and your body is too weak. For now, we can only focus on strengthening your body. When the time is right, we will find an opportunity to leave the Marquis's residence for a while, and then we will be able to detoxify you.”
Shen Huaizhi felt a warm feeling in his heart, but also some indescribable emotions. He had endured the previous eighteen years on his own, but he never expected that getting married would bring him someone who truly cared for and loved him.
Shen Huaizhi's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed the lump in his throat and answered earnestly, "Okay, I believe you."
Su Jinyue pretended to take something out of the purse beside her pillow, but actually took it out of her spatial storage.
What Su Jinyue took out appeared to be a pill, which emitted a faint green light in the darkness.
She held the pill to Shen Huaizhi's lips: "Open your mouth."
Shen Huaizhi obediently opened his mouth and swallowed the pill. The pill was magical; it melted instantly in his mouth. Afterward, Shen Huaizhi felt a warm sensation wherever the pill touched, as if parched land had been nourished by water, which felt extremely comfortable.
Shen Huaizhi asked curiously, "What kind of medicine is this?"
"These are pills I made using a secret recipe to nourish my body. The ingredients inside are very precious. I had my maternal grandfather collect them for me for many years before I finally managed to refine a few pills."
This medicine can nourish your body very well, and can even suppress some of the toxins in your body.
That way you won't have to suffer so much.
The poison in Shen Huaizhi's body was damaging him every moment, so how could his body not be in pain?
Although he appeared calm and collected, he was actually just enduring it all.
In fact, what Su Jinyue took out was not a pill, but the essence of wood that she had collected from the previous world.
In the previous world, Su Jinyue had a wood spirit root. Wood represents life, so Su Jinyue used her wood spirit root to nourish the spirit wood, thereby collecting the essence of wood.
The energy and vitality in a single drop of wood essence are immeasurable; it is gentler and more suitable for Shen Huaizhi's current body than the spiritual spring.
The vitality in the essence of wood can suppress or even eliminate the spread of toxins.
Su Jinyue can only add small amounts of spiritual spring water to the medicinal diet to slowly improve Shen Huaizhi's physique, but the essence of wood can nourish Shen Huaizhi's body immediately.
Su Jinyue knew that no matter how much she said, or how much she could cure him, Shen Huaizhi wouldn't easily believe her. So she didn't mind revealing some of her abilities to give Shen Huaizhi more confidence.
"This medicine is so precious, how could you so easily give it to me?"
Shen Huaizhi tried to explain, wanting to say that he didn't deserve such a precious elixir, but his last words were cut off by Su Jinyue's lips.
It was a very tender and lingering kiss. Su Jinyue's movements were gentle. She kissed him a few times, and finally licked Shen Huaizhi's lips before leaving.
Although their lips parted, Su Jinyue didn't stray too far. She nuzzled Shen Huaizhi's nose with her own and whispered firmly to him.
"Shen Huaizhi, we're already married! Stop saying such useless nonsense!"
We are already husband and wife, and no matter how many difficulties we face in the future, we will face them together.
I said I could cure you, and I definitely can, so you must not give up!
My husband, I still dream of growing old with you. Don't you want to grow old with me and spend your life together?
Shen Huaizhi's heart skipped a beat, and his body began to tremble. He thought, of course he wanted to!
But can he really have such a bright future, such a wonderful Su Jinyue?
Feeling the warm breath emanating from Su Jinyue's panting, Shen Huaizhi suddenly felt a surge of desire and ambition.
Su Jinyue has already married him and become his wife. Can he really bear to die young and watch her marry someone else?
The thought of that scene made Shen Huaizhi's heart ache. He didn't want it, he didn't want anyone else to appear in her life!
Shen Huaizhi reached out and gently touched Su Jinyue's cheek: "My wife, are you a fairy from heaven who descended to save me?"
Su Jinyue burst out laughing, surprised that Shen Huaizhi had such a vivid imagination.
"Just accept it, since I am a fairy, you can't let me down!"
"In this life, you are my husband. You must respect me, love me, and be with me for life, one and only. You must never have another woman!"
Shen Huaizhi chuckled out loud; how could his wife be so adorable!
If Su Jinyue can really cure him, then his life belongs to Su Jinyue. He can only see her and cannot see anyone else.
If he can't be cured, he'll die, and naturally, no one else will be able to.
However, Shen Huaizhi could still sense Su Jinyue's confidence and assurance that she could cure him from her words.
He thought he should trust her more, after all, he really longed for the future that Su Jinyue described!
After a while of laughter and playfulness, the bed returned to silence, but the atmosphere gradually became ambiguous. Shen Huaizhi suddenly remembered the kiss from just now.
The palm of Shen Huaizhi's hand that was stroking Su Jinyue's cheek was burning hot. He pulled Su Jinyue's cheek toward him.
Su Jinyue did not struggle and let him do as he pleased. Shen Huaizhi's Adam's apple bobbed, and he suddenly tensed up.
But when he smelled the sweet fragrance emanating from Su Jinyue, that intoxicating scent, his heart settled down.
Su Jinyue, his wife, is so brave, what else does he have to be afraid of?
It's just one life; what difference does it make who gets it?
Compared to those others who harbored ulterior motives and plotted against him in secret, Shen Huaizhi was willing to give his life and his heart to Su Jinyue!
Thinking this way, Shen Huaizhi felt instantly at ease. He firmly kissed Su Jinyue's lips, gently rubbing them, and then deepening the kiss...
