Sweet Wife in My Arms

"The future is too long." In her previous life, she only lived until this age. She simply did not know what would happen in the future and what kind of path she should take.

He Yibin merely sighed without saying anything. Since any further discussion was futile, it would be better to remain silent.

True, the future was still too long. Who would know what would happen in the future?

A few hours had passed after her injection. He Yibin had received Yan Huan's medical report and the results revealed that she was fine. She merely had a common cold and fever.

"Wait until the temperature drops, then take some medicine and you'll be fine."

"If you still feel feverish tomorrow, come here again." He Yibin handed the medicine he brought over to Yan Huan and reminded her to take them timely.

"Hmm, I know. Thank you." Yan Huan took the medicine and wrapped her scarf around her head again, leaving only her eyes visible. Actually, even if she were to stand in front of other people right now, no one would recognize her as she was dressed like a bear. Not to mention, she was sickly pale as a ghost.

After receiving her medicine, she left while wrapping her entire body underneath a massive outfit. She could barely feel her weight in it. She did not seem bloated because she was probably too skinny. If she was heavier, it would be impossible for her to walk.

She was going to return home, but after taking a few steps, she realized that she had forgotten to buy a few things. Hence, she turned around and went to the stores nearby.

After walking for a while, she realized that she was sweating so much that she was drenched in sweat, perhaps a reaction to her injection earlier. She wanted to take off her coat but restrained herself from doing so in the end. Her bear-like attire was peculiar but it did not seem hideously monstrous to the extent of drawing unwanted attention. After all, a lot of people were wearing similar outfits in the shopping mall. No matter how powerful the turn the heaters on in the mall, it could not stop the cold wind blowing in as people walked in. Besides, it felt as though the cold wind had glued itself to everyone's skin. No matter how much time had passed, one could still seemingly feel the frosty chill from outside.

Now, her body seemed to start sweating even more, so she found a place to sit down and rest. She lowered her head and began playing with her phone. One could see her fingers were frozen until it swelled previously had become thicker than the others. She avoided reading the news. Perhaps she was afraid and wanted to remain oblivious to what was happening.

She nested herself inside the coat and sweated more profusely. However, He Yibin said that she would get better after breaking out in a sweat. This should be good for her.

Her fingers swiped through her phone swiftly.

This was her favorite game. She was very dense back then. But look at me now. I am doing just fine. Really, no one is inseparable. She could still leave and learn to live by herself, right?

"Sit here, I'll buy it for you." Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed into her ears. Her fingers slightly trembled for a moment. Then, she tightly held her phone again and continued looking down to play with her phone.

Will he recognize me? Will he be able to?

She believed that if it was the Lu Yi from the past, he could definitely recognize her. Even if she was wearing a sack, he could still identify her. However, she was unsure if the current Lu Yi could do it.

However, it was meaningless whether he would recognize her or not. After all, they were already divorced. From now on, they should walk on different paths in life and no longer have any ties with one another.

Lu Yi stood straight and could not help but peek at this woman who had completely covered herself, sitting nearby. A strange feeling surfaced in his heart, but he did not dwell on it and simply left.

Yan Huan's long eyelashes quivered as her fingers firmly gripped and tightened around her phone again. After that, she slowly opened her eyes but her eyelids felt slightly heavy. From within the heaviness, something seemed to fall down and disappeared in the corner of her eyes. She placed her phone into her bag but incidentally caught a glimpse of the ring on Sun Yuhan's finger.

It was a blue-colored gem. The women's version was exquisitely elegant while the men's version was lavishly majestic. The ring seemed to be a bit too large for that woman's finger but it looked extremely luxurious.

As she exhaled lightly, the mixture of putrid smells inside the mall rushed into her nostrils and irritated her eyes as well.

She hastily stood up and departed while tightly clutching her bag. However, no one knew that the white mist currently clouding her eyes would not dissipate even after a very long time.

Just when the white mist was about to condense into liquid, she forcefully closed her eyes once to squeeze all that vapor away. As she hastened her steps, her clothes became partially drenched, but her mind became increasingly clearer.

Her feet were moving and her mind was spinning, but sadly, her heart was aching.

She had no idea how long it would take for her to recover and to forget. Who could describe it to her, how hard was it to forget something?

She returned to Old Master Lu's place. As she entered the house, she saw Old Master Lu sitting in the living room, fixedly staring at her unblinkingly.

"Where did you go?"

Yan Huan took off her coat. The heat inside warmed her face, and it also revitalized her sickly pale face with some color of blood.

"I went to the hospital to get some medicine." Yan Huan put the medicine she was holding on the table. Then, she poured herself a glass of water, preparing to take her medicine and go to bed. Maybe she needed to sweat and let the tears fall even more. Perhaps that would make her feel better, or recover faster?

She came over with a glass of water and Old Master Lu did not press the issue further. Although he had an unconcerned expression, as usual, Yan Huan realized that he seemed to look relieved after hearing her reply.

Yan Huan disliked Old Master Lu the most before this. He was short-tempered, sharp-tongued, and always spoke demeaningly. Now, after spending some time with him, she realized that she had misjudged him, as no one in this world was perfect.

Every person in this world had his own merits and shortcomings. Thus, how one appeared to be depended on how another person perceived and understood him.

Actually, besides Old Master Lu's shortcomings, he was actually a very endearing old man. Even when he was concerned, he would be reluctant to say so and simply tell the person off. He even claimed that he was used to scolding others and did not know other ways to express his feelings.

Yan Huan took the medications according to the instructions. Then, she went to rest. She did not feel like eating anyway. She was not hungry and didn't have much of an appetite.
