Chapter 603 - 603: Big Ghost and Small Ghost Fighting for Favor
The killing intent made Shu Yutong pause in her words.
Liu Shimei brought Shu Yutong over and sat her on the edge of the bed.
Seeing that Shu Yutong stopped speaking halfway, she asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
His wife finally came to his side, but this silly husky was not pleased at all. He looked at Shu Yutong coldly.
Shu Yutong glanced at Huangfu Lingyao, her conscience pricking her. She suddenly remembered their agreement and said, “I meant, can I stay in your room? Just set up a small bed for me!”
The soft little girl’s face showed a frightened expression. She said, “Are the palace chambers all this big? I’m a bit scared.”
Liu Shimei thought it over and immediately agreed, “Alright, I’ll have Mo’er find a palace maid to set up a bed for you in my room!”
Although it wasn’t sleeping in his own wife’s bed, it provided some consolation. But Huangfu Lingyao felt even more depressed!
This little brat had quite the skill at disguising herself.
They were on the same path. It seemed their destinies were at odds!
What if he accidentally revealed his true intentions while competing for favor with Shu Yutong? What would he do?
But he had already taken Shu Yutong as his wife’s disciple. He couldn’t persuade her to abandon Shu Yutong at this point.
Would he just give in to the difficulties he faced?
Of course not!
Hadn’t he encountered numerous challenges over the years? Wasn’t he still living well?
He pouted and said, “Wife, I’m scared too. I want to sleep in your room!”
Of course, he knew she wouldn’t agree. It was just a way to vent his frustration.
Sure enough, Liu Shimei helplessly replied, “Lingyao, Tongtong is still a child. It’s her first time entering the palace, and she doesn’t know anyone. We need to take care of her emotions.”
Huangfu Lingyao thought, ‘Yes, she is just a child! But my dear wife, do you know? Once you leave, this little devil will reveal her true nature and declare war on me!’
But he couldn’t say such things!
He could only grit his teeth and bear it!
So pitiful!
Seeing him silent, Liu Shimei finally noticed his subdued mood. She turned her head towards him and asked, “Lingyao, are you unhappy?”
With a sudden realization, thinking about the temperament of the Huskies produced by their own vinegar factory, she probably guessed: he was jealous again!
Jealous of a little girl!
She couldn’t help but chuckle, reaching out to touch his face, she said, “Get better soon. Once your injury is healed, you won’t have to stay in the palace. We can stay at the Fusheng Pavilion for a few days.”
“Really?” Huangfu Lingyao’s eyes lit up, finally feeling a bit happier!
He blinked and asked, “Why?”
Liu Shimei explained, “I need to spend more time and effort bringing out a few female doctors. It’s also good to free up my own time for other matters. So, I probably won’t return to the mansion temporarily.”
Huangfu Lingyao suddenly understood: because of my injury, it delayed my wife’s plans.
But how could he bear not seeing her for ten days or half a month? So he could only temporarily endure it and find a way to help her later!
“Master, I can help you!” Seeing Liu Shimei’s attention was all on Huangfu Lingyao, Shu Yutong quickly tried to make her presence known, “When you go on consultations, I can accompany you and help you prepare the medicines!”
Huangfu Lingyao,”…”
He felt extremely uncomfortable, but he justified, “You’re such a little kid. If you accompany my wife to prepare medicines, will the patients trust you?”
Upon hearing this, Shu Yutong’s face fell.
Huangfu Lingyao looked at her and felt a pang of guilt!
This little devil was simply his replica.. His wife was most susceptible to his tricks; would she fall for Shu Yutong’s tactics too?
