CH 63

After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine Chapter 63

When they entered the room, Li Changning randomly found an excuse and sent all the servants out of the room. When only the three of them were left in the room, Li Changning carried his medical kit over and walked to Huo Wujiu's side.

"General Huo," he bowed and saluted Huo Wujiu.

Huo Wujiu put down the book in his hand and raised his eyes to look at the two of them.

"General, Doctor Li has come to check your injuries!" Next to him, Wei Kai pushed the wheelchair beside the bed for Huo Wujiu with a smile.

"General, you still don't know, right? Yesterday, Doctor Li's words were used to fool Jingwang! Yesterday, he checked your injuries and knew with certainty that he could cure you of this kind of disability caused by sharp weapons!"

Huo Wujiu glanced at him lightly.

Wei Kai immediately understood what he meant and scratched the back of his head, laughing, "I know, My Lord must have guessed it a long time ago."

Just then, Huo Wujiu suddenly asked, "What about Jingwang's illness?"

Both men in the room were taken aback.

For a moment, Wei Kai and Li Changning looked at each other.

They both knew in their hearts that treating Jingwang was just a pretense, just a way to penetrate the Jingwang Manor.

Why did the General ask this?

After a short silence, the two of them met Huo Wujiu's dark eyes.

"Can he be cured, perhaps?" he asked.

Li Changning replied, "General, Jingwang's weakness was caused by a drug that was administered since childhood. It's impossible to cure it immediately, but as long as the right herbs are used and slowly regulated, we should be able to extract the root of his disease in about three to five years."

Huo Wujiu lowered his eyes and no longer spoke.

Li Changning glanced at him, and then at Wei Kai, and was momentarily at a loss deep inside.

"Then...Do you want me to cure him or not, General?"

Huo Wujiu hesitated, but when he raised his eyes again, his gaze was tinged with shades of cold intent.

Did he want it? What did he have to think about? He and Jingwang were now only in a 'cooperative' relationship. He just needed to protect him in the future. Who drugged him, or what illness he contracted was none of his business, right?

With this in mind, he spoke coldly.

"What has it got to do with my intentions?" he questioned.

Li Changning was left even more clueless.

Then he heard Huo Wujiu say, "Since you came to his house to treat him, shouldn't you be thinking about how to cure him? Could it be that you're waiting for him to take vengeance on you?"

Li Changning's heart shivered.

Sure enough. He knew that Jingwang was not a good stubble.

Nonetheless, why did the General's words sound like...like he wanted Jingwang to be cured?

Li Changning couldn't figure it out, so he could only follow Huo Wujiu's orders: "I understand! I will do my best to cure Jingwang!"

Wei Kai's eyes were about to pop out, and he itched to kick Li Changning.

Didn't you hear how much the General hated Jingwang? How dare you say that you want to cure him? What a thickhead!

But then he heard Huo Wujiu anwer with a hum.

"Don't tell him," he added.

Li Changning answered evenly.

Wei Kai was dumbfounded: "General, why is this?"

Huo Wujiu's lips moved, but he swallowed back the words that were on his lips.

He said so, naturally considering that the fewer people who knew about it, the better. After all, it would take a long time for Jiang Suizhou's body to heal, so Jiang Shunheng wouldn't notice it for a while. However, the moment he caught the least bit of wind of it, Jiang Shunheng would definitely try every means to stop it.

But...

Why was he considering so much for Jingwang?!

Waves of irritation surged inexplicably deep in Huo Wujiu's heart.

After a pause, he said coldly, "As a bargaining chip. It will be useful in the future."

The two faces in front of him showed the look, That explains it. They thought that the General was superior in strategy. His foresight was truly beyond the reach of subordinates like them.

Only Huo Wujiu himself knew how chaotic his heart was.

Jingwang had none of those messy intentions towards him and only wanted to cooperate with him. This should have been an uncomplicated and worth celebrating matter for him. He was a little upset at first, and he thought it was just because he was confused like that silly eunuch, Meng Qianshan.

However, this feeling, which should have been forgotten in the blink of an eye, actually intensified with the passage of time.

Huo Wujiu couldn't figure out why he felt like he had lost something important.

——

Jiang Suizhou woke up early in the morning and found that a person was missing from his room.

Huo Wujiu was gone.

Meng Qianshan told him that Madam Huo had woken up and had moved out early  when he learned that his room was tidied up.

Jiang Suizhou felt that he should be relieved.

After all, as an adult, who didn't want to have their own personal space? The torment of being forced to eat and live with Huo Wujiu for so long finally came to an end today.

Huo Wujiu moved out, and before he left, they also cleared things up between them. Huo Wujiu promised him that he would no longer have to worry about being killed by Huo Wujiu himself, so for him, it should be a good day all in the same day.

However, he somehow felt that something was missing.

It might be because as soon as he transmigrated, he was forced to live with Huo Wujiu. At the same time, Huo Wujiu was too quiet and disciplined, and didn't add any trouble to him.

Because of this, when the person disappeared abruptly, he felt that the room was a little empty, as if something was missing.

This feeling haunted Jiang Suizhou's heart. He didn't notice it, but he unconsciously ate a lot less for breakfast.

But Meng Qianshan, who was waiting by his side, took everything in with a sharp eye.

When Jiang Suizhou drank his medicine and sat on the edge of the bed to read a book absently, Meng Qianshan came to his side and said with a smile, "Your Highness, you have nothing to do today anyway. The day is perfect outside, so why don't you go out to catch some rays, and while at it, go to the wing room to see how that doctor is treating Madam Huo's legs?"

The author has something to say:

Li Changning: I have this lingering feeling that the General is speaking sourly.

Wei Kai: ? You know nothing! That's the General mapping out a strategy. It's called being unfathomable. It's called being cold and ruthless!
