Rebirth Sweet Wife, Super Cute-Chapter 279: The Woman You Like Seems to Be Married

This time, Ji Hanyu’s episode lasted straight from night until dawn.

Hearing the quiet inside the room, Bai Haoxue hurriedly opened the door and went in.

Ji Hanyu, whose limbs were bound by thick iron chains, had already fainted on the bed, utterly exhausted.

This time, the marks on his wrists and ankles were not just simple indentations.

Due to excessive struggling and with too much force, Ji Hanyu’s wrists and ankles had been chafed to the point where flesh and blood were visible, with the outline of bones faintly discernible. It was a shocking sight...

Bai Haoxue’s hand trembled as she held the disinfectant, not knowing where to start, nor how to ease his pain.

Xiao Bei handed a bottle of medicine to Bai Haoxue, "Clean the wound and apply this powder. It will heal quickly."

"Thank you..." Bai Haoxue looked at Xiao Bei, sincerely grateful.

Bai Haoxue gently cleaned Ji Hanyu’s wounds and then applied the medicine.

Xiao Bei also breathed a sigh of relief, "Once he wakes up, this month will be over."

"Is there any result from Miss Chu yet?"

Every month, he has to endure such painful days, with the risk of even dying.

This is scarier than a ticking time bomb.

"No, she hasn’t come out of the laboratory yet."

"After so much testing and research, there might be a good outcome," Li Mingmo, always the optimist, said.

"Once you finish applying the medicine, rest well. He’s spent too much energy this time and probably won’t wake up for a while. You haven’t slept all night, either."

To be precise, these last two days, Bai Haoxue hasn’t slept much at all.

If Ji Hanyu knew, he’d surely be heartbroken, and might even get mad at them.

Li Mingmo thought he could sneak away now...

After applying the medicine to Ji Hanyu, Bai Haoxue didn’t rest but went to the kitchen instead.

Li Mingmo had bought a lot of fresh vegetables and meat, and Bai Haoxue started working busily in the kitchen.

She made pigeon soup, stewed potatoes with beef, sweet and sour ribs, stir-fried prawns, fish-flavored shredded pork, and several fresh vegetables.

Ji Hanyu remained in a particularly long faint, still not awake.

Bai Haoxue divided the prepared food into two portions, one for Li Mingmo, Xiao Bei, and Chu Yin’er.

The remaining half she kept warm in the kitchen, waiting for Ji Hanyu to wake up.

As Li Mingmo ate, he sighed, "Indeed, a man needs a wife. At least someone cares and feeds you!"

At this point, Li Mingmo’s mind drifted to the memory of Xi Wei making crabs for him back then.

Xi Wei couldn’t cook and had never done it before, but she knew he loved crabs.

The young girl personally made them for him, despite crabs being hard to handle even for chefs.

Xi Wei was a newbie; it was her first time cooking. She did manage to prepare the crabs, but her delicate hands were swollen like sausages.

"What, are you really getting inspired and planning to fall in love?" Not having had a good meal in ages, Xiao Bei joked with Li Mingmo in a rare moment of levity, "I seem to remember someone saying they’d never fall in love again, that women are all crap."

"Did I?" Li Mingmo didn’t recall ever saying that, or at least he wouldn’t admit it, "That sounds like something you’d say, don’t mix things up and frame me!"

Xiao Bei: "..."

"Haha, you’re just fooling yourself," Xiao Bei, skilled at making sharp jabs, chimed in, "I remember the woman you liked seems to be married now, right?"

Li Mingmo: "..."
