Chapter 38

“Zaozao, are you holding me too tight?” Gu Shan asked.

“Not at all. To be honest, comrade Gu Shan, I feel like your body, despite being so big, is distressingly lightweight,” Zaozao said. As she spoke, she weighed Gu Shan in her arms, as if to determine exactly how much he weighed.

“Zaozao, put me down! I’m a grown man. You’ll get tired holding me,” Gu Shan said.

“I’m not tired. Gu Shan, for the sake of our health, we must eat well! Now that I have money, we won’t go hungry either. From now on, eat lots and get your body nice and chubby. Of course, not as fat as me. That’s not healthy.”

As Zaozao spoke, she carefully lowered Gu Shan into the new wheelchair she had bought, then crouched down in front of him and asked softly:

“How is it? Does the new wheelchair feel comfortable?”

“Very good, very comfortable. Thank you, Zaozao,” Gu Shan replied.

“I told you, you’re my husband. No need to be so polite with me.”

“Alright, I won’t be polite from now on.”

As he stroked the custom pattern on the wheelchair, Gu Shan hid the darkness in his eyes and thanked her, “Zaozao, where did you get this wheelchair? The workmanship is quite good.”

“I bought it from a furniture shop in town. The salesman told me someone else had this custom-made but ended up not wanting it. I saw the high quality and full features and thought it would suit you well, so I bought it.”

“Zaozao, did you come across anything unexpected when you went out today?” Gu Shan asked.

“Oh yes, yes, yes! Something big happened today. But let’s talk about it later. For now, let me deal with these two little brats first.”Yoouur favorite novels at novelhall.com

Zaozao turned her head to look at the two children still standing in the corner rubbing their bottoms. A meaningful smile spread across her face.

“Little brats, starting today, you two are my, Lin Zaozao’s, younger brothers. To demonstrate the close sibling bond between us, your older brother will be called Lin Wuwu, and your younger brother will be called Lin Wanwan. What do you think, aren’t the names your big sister chose nice?”

The names Zaozao randomly came up with made everyone laugh out loud. How did she pull these names out of her head?

“What? You don’t think the names I chose sound nice?”

Seeing everyone snickering, Zaozao put her hands on her hips and scowled.

“They sound great, truly one-of-a-kind and nice. Morning, noon, and night, just listening you can tell they’re three siblings,” Ji Fantian said, struggling to keep a straight face as he complimented her.

“Don’t need your compliments, I actually think they sound nice too,” Zaozao bluntly accepted Ji Fantian’s praise, then dragged the two children toward the river.

“Zaozao, where are you going?” Gu Shan asked.

“Giving my two cheap little brothers a bath. They’re both so dirty they look like lumps of coal. How can they change into new clothes without washing up first!”

With that said, Zaozao flashed a grin at Gu Shan before picking up the packages she had bought for the two boys and headed to the river, dragging them along.

When they reached the riverside, seeing Wuwu and Wanwan still clutching their bottoms without moving, Zaozao tossed the packages she was holding to the ground and immediately started tearing at their clothes.

But before she could even lay a hand on them, the two boys violently shoved her and made a break for it.

Ignoring the children's astonished looks, Zaozao pulled them down to sit at the river's edge. She scooped up some river water and gently started washing their bodies.

Worried that the water would get into the children's wounds, she was extra careful as she cleaned them.

She had only bought food, clothes, and furniture today. How could she have forgotten to get soap or something to properly wash them with?

Just using water, she really couldn't get the kids clean when they were this dirty.

Just as Zaozao was internally berating herself, someone behind her handed her a bar of snowy white — soap.

Taking the soap and looking at who gave it to her, Zaozao saw it was the mute Ye Yi.

Gazing at Ye Yi's exotic features, Zaozao found herself unable to turn her eyes away.

Her third husband was so goddamn good-looking.

Because Ye Yi couldn't speak, Zaozao had never interacted with him much before.

But now, seeing Ye Yi squat down beside her, take the soap, and gently pull Wanwan's arm to start carefully washing him, it left her stunned.

"Ye Yi, thank you!"

Ye Yi's response was an extremely faint smile. Just that faint smile alone made Zaozao's mouth water.

Damn! Ye Yi was hitting on her!

Why else would he smile at her like **that**?

Perhaps Zaozao's stare was too direct, because Ye Yi halted his movements and turned to give her a puzzled look, seemingly asking why she had stopped.

"Oh! Washing, washing now."

After laughing foolishly at Ye Yi, Zaozao turned back and started washing Wuwu. As she washed, she chattered away:

"Wuwu, Wanwan, I know there are stories behind the wounds on your bodies. I don't care what happened to you before, but I can promise now that I, Lin Zaozao, will never harm you.

As long as I'm here, I will fulfill my duty as your sister and protect you always."

Of course, if one day the two of you grow up and want to leave this place. You just give me a shout, I absolutely won't stop you. However, there's one thing I have to make clear first!

You two have been infected by the wolf toxin. I'll have to cure the wolf toxin in your bodies first before you mention leaving again. Understood?"

As Lin Zaozao mumbled on and mentioned the wolf toxin, Ye Yi and the two little brats' bodies suddenly tensed up.

Wolf toxin is incurable, isn't it?

Why did Lin Zaozao say she wanted to cure the wolf toxin in their bodies?

Could it be that she is a reclusive master physician?
