The Unmoving Bride

Yan Xinmeng, seeing Shang Bieye’s haggard face, raised her hand to gently stroke it, feeling sorry for him. “Brother, these days must have been hard for you,” she said softly. “Not hard! Not at all, as long as you are healthy, it’s not hard at all,” Shang Bieye said, his eyes red. “Actually, during this time, I could hear your voices and see you, but you couldn’t hear or see me. I was really scared, scared that I might never be with you again!” Yan Xinmeng said with lingering fear. “Silly Xinmeng, even if Miss Yuan didn’t cure you, I wouldn’t live alone in this world.” “Brother, you mustn’t do anything foolish.” Yan Xinmeng quickly covered Shang Bieye’s mouth with her hand. “How could this be foolish? Actually, when Miss Yuan mentioned that condition, I thought about stopping there and taking you back to Auntie Qian, but then she brought up that condition again. Thinking about it, as long as you can live, that’s enough for me.” Shang Bieye kissed her hand gently. “All those words were just something Miss Yuan said on purpose,” Yan Xinmeng chuckled lightly. “Now I understand, but what’s all this about?” “In fact, Miss Yuan gave me the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill on the first night, and we even chatted with Brother Niu Qi for several evenings.” Yan Xinmeng smiled faintly, lifting the corners of her mouth. “Chatted with Brother Niu Qi for several evenings?” No wonder Yuan Huixiang asked me for an ox horn, but how does she know Niu Qi? Shang Bieye looked at Yan Xinmeng in confusion. Sensing his confusion, Yan Xinmeng explained, “It turns out Miss Yuan has another Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill because she once dealt with the Judge when she saved someone. The Judge lost, so he gave her the pill, and Brother Niu Qi was there to collect that person’s soul, which is how they met.” “I see!” Shang Bieye finally understood. “Miss Yuan told me that she was very angry when she first heard you were coming for the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill.” Shang Bieye recalled that Yuan Huixiang indeed seemed very angry when she learned of his purpose. “She wasn’t angry with you, she was angry with the Judge. She said the Judge is a ghost who values his face and has been trying all means to get back the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill from her, but he had no strategy. Then this happened, and Brother Niu Qi went to ask for his help, claiming it as a favor to Brother Niu Qi, but in his heart, he was overjoyed.” Shang Bieye wasn’t very clear about the grudge between Yuan Huixiang and the Judge, but with all this commotion, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Let me tell you something else, this is what Miss Yuan secretly told me.” Yan Xinmeng’s eyes sparkled mischievously, “Miss Yuan really likes Brother Wu! She wants us to help her.” “Is that so?” Shang Bieye hadn’t expected that Yuan Huixiang would like Wu Yangfeng, because these past few days she had been indifferent to him and quite critical of Wu Yangfeng. “Yes! Does Brother Wu have someone he likes or is he already engaged?” Yan Xinmeng asked. Shang Bieye thought for a moment and shook his head. “Since that’s the case, let’s help Miss Yuan! They are both doctors, and she has a good heart, speaks well, and she’s my savior. I think Brother Wu shouldn’t dislike her, right, brother, what do you think?” Yan Xinmeng pleaded. “But Yangfeng has been worn out by Miss Yuan these days…” Shang Bieye gave a wry smile. “Oh, don’t worry about that, Miss Yuan said she has her ways, we shouldn’t worry about it.” Yan Xinmeng said coyly. “Alright then!”
