Chapter 241 I just want you to be with me
After waking up from a nap, Wen Jiayue felt refreshed and invigorated.
She felt completely cured and her headache was gone.
But she has to keep pretending.
The day after tomorrow is Zhaozhao's birthday. If Shen Fuhan suddenly changes his mind after seeing that she is cured, then it would be a loss for him.
Fortunately, Shen Fuhan wasn't around, so she could relax during the day.
Wen Jiayue opened her eyes while stretching lazily, but suddenly stopped.
Shen Fuhan sat on the bed, holding a book in his hand, but his gaze was not on the book, but rather on her.
Wen Jiayue was startled. Why was Shen Fuhan still in the bedroom?!
She clearly remembered that today was not a day off.
Wen Jiayue's mind was in turmoil. She stretched halfway through, but was forced to change direction and put her hands on her head.
She frowned and said, "It hurts so much."
Shen Fuhan immediately put down the book in his hand and asked, "Does it hurt again?"
Wen Jiayue nodded and explained, "I don't know what happened. I felt much better just now, but when I moved around a lot, it started to hurt again."
Shen Fuhan didn't abruptly tell her to get up, but asked, "Where?"
Wen Jiayue casually pointed to her forehead.
Shen Fuhan then diligently began to massage her.
Seeing that he believed her, Wen Jiayue secretly breathed a sigh of relief before asking, "Why didn't you go to work today, Lord Marquis?"
"I'm not busy these two days, so the Dali Temple has granted me two days off."
He didn't say it was because of her illness, fearing it would make her overthink and worsen her condition.
Wen Jiayue's heart sank, and she remained silent for a long time.
She can't go to the Dali Temple today, nor tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow is a day off, so she has to pretend for three days in a row.
However... she clearly remembered that this didn't happen in her previous life.
Apart from his days off, Shen Fuhan never rested and always performed his duties diligently.
This is how the same thing?
But she couldn't ask, since Shen Fuhan didn't know about her rebirth, and if she did, everything would be exposed.
Moreover, there is another possibility: Shen Fuhan thinks she is faking illness, but he has not found any evidence.
Every reason was unfavorable to her, so Wen Jiayue had no choice but to keep quiet about it for the time being.
After pressing for a while, she said it didn't hurt anymore.
After the meal, Shen Fuhan summoned the imperial physician and Elder Qian to examine him.
Wen Jiayue wasn't afraid. Even if her fever subsided, her headache would help her cope for a while.
The imperial physician and Qian Lao each performed the four diagnostic methods (inspection, auscultation, inquiry, and palpation) and reached the same conclusion.
"Madam is recovering very well. She only needs to take one more dose of medicine and rest in bed for two more days to be completely cured."
Shen Fuhan said, "But she still has a bit of a headache."
"This..." The imperial physician bowed and said, "I have not found any symptoms of headache in the lady."
Wen Jiayue quickly interjected, "It's just an occasional pain, it's nothing serious, you two should go back now."
If we keep talking, we'll be exposing all her secrets.
After seeing off the two renowned doctors, Wen Jiayue breathed a sigh of relief.
Out of the corner of her eye, Wen Jiayue caught sight of Shen Fuhan deep in thought, and her heart skipped a beat again.
Could it be that they've actually discovered she's faking illness?
Just as he was getting anxious, Shen Funian's voice came from outside.
"Sister-in-law, are you awake?"
Wen Jiayue quickly responded, "Third sister, come in."
She tugged at Shen Fuhan's sleeve, interrupting his thoughts.
"Third sister is here."
Shen Fuhan simply nodded indifferently and continued to ponder.
Wen Jiayue steeled her heart, just about to ask him what he was thinking, when Shen Funian pushed the door open and came in.
"Sister-in-law, I heard you were sick... Oh, what's Brother doing here?"
Shen Fuhan told her his story.
Shen Funian didn't believe it at all, and snorted twice: "I think you're just too eager to take care of your sister-in-law, aren't you?"
Wen Jiayue tugged at her sleeve, telling her not to talk nonsense.
Shen Fuhan glanced at her: "You can think of it that way."
“That’s how it is. They even left their own daughter to me to raise,” Shen Fu said. “As soon as I woke up, I heard Zhao Zhao’s laughter. Goodness, I thought I gave birth to her in a dream.”
She woke up with a hangover to find Zhao Zhao playing in the yard. Her mind was in a daze, and she almost thought she was having a dream within a dream.
Shen Fuhan asked, "Why were you drunk last night?"
Shen Funian immediately became honest and explained in a low voice, "I drank it because I wanted to, there was no reason..."
Shen Fuhan was even colder: "If it weren't for taking care of you, your sister-in-law wouldn't have gotten sick."
"What do you mean?" Shen Funian asked blankly, "Is it related to me?"
Having inadvertently made Shen Funian take the blame, Wen Jiayue quickly said, "It's not because of Third Sister, it's because I was too lazy to change the hot water that I got sick."
Shen Funian understood and said anxiously, "It's clearly because of me! Sister-in-law, I won't drink anymore. When will you get better?"
Wen Jiayue sighed, "Oh well, no one will be punished anyway, let's just let this matter drop."
Shen Fuhan suddenly asked anxiously, "Does your head hurt again?"
Wen Jiayue quickly put her hand down.
"No, I feel much better now."
Looking at their appearance, Shen Funian suddenly felt that she shouldn't have come.
Isn't this the perfect time for the relationship between brother and sister-in-law to warm up?
She cleared her throat and said, "Then I'll head back now. I'll take good care of Zhaozhao as an apology."
After saying that, she turned around and left happily.
As she walked out of the main courtyard, she happened to see her fourth brother coming over with tonics, and Shen Funian immediately grabbed him and took him away.
"Since your sister-in-law is being taken care of by your brother, we shouldn't go and join in the fun."
"Huh?" Shen Fu scratched his head. "Then what about these supplements?"
"Give it to me, thanks, dear brother."
"..."
The two people in the main courtyard were completely unaware of this, and Shen Fuhan told Wen Jiayue to go back to bed.
"Rest these two days and do nothing."
Wen Jiayue pretended to be hesitant: "But the account books of all the farms and shops will be delivered this afternoon."
“I’ll do it,” Shen Fuhan said. “You just need to focus on getting better.”
Wen Jiayue smiled and said, "Then thank you very much, Lord Marquis."
It seems he didn't realize she was faking illness at all; he was probably thinking about something else.
Shen Fuhan suddenly said, "But I need to go out of the manor in a little while."
Wen Jiayue asked instinctively, "Where to?"
“There’s a doctor at Shunan Hall in the outskirts of Beijing who is skilled at treating headaches,” Shen Fuhan said. “I’ll go and invite him over.”
Wen Jiayue was stunned and said, "There's no need to go to so much trouble..."
“Just listen to me,” Shen Fuhan said seriously. “A headache may be a minor issue, but not being able to find the cause is a major issue. What if there’s a hidden illness?”
Now Wen Jiayue was really having a headache. Why was he so persistent?
It's normal for one or two doctors to say she's not sick, but if another one comes, Shen Fuhan might start to doubt her.
Wen Jiayue racked her brains for a solution, then suddenly remembered that pretending to cry would work, so she quickly pinched her palm.
In an instant, tears welled up in my eyes.
Wen Jiayue looked up at him pitifully and said, "My lord, I just want you to stay with me, please don't go."
