Jinbao Marries a Wife

Thanks for the KoFi Sarah! Extra chapter for youYTThlLmXxQAnIkcYCkNKVkQLdqOjjz

The child didn’t even eat dinner and sat by the window, watching as the daylight faded into darkness. He sat there, lost in thought, the entire day.dssyjYwuYBwbFWgBiazrBUYkTKsNbX

jdaHStAklSXLsiz

He’s rarely had anything on his mind growing up. Whatever he thought, others could always tell, and even if they couldn’t, he’d say it himself.vptkmsybbMDplwexhsxOiwJZcjIxzP

nSMjEavboXDDMJR

But today, he couldn’t talk to anyone about it.POdUZoWAbnddQTjuNVAgDqfMAUIuET

The young master thought that he’d been wronged by Yue Siming, and Zhao Cai was determined to save him from his misery.doefLzpcNJgnGSKSTxOudFZnvfpDqX

gxlpZEvGYxbNMBK

But what he was thinking about now was that he might have hurt Yue Siming’s feelings.reYyzWiYvGrCCbDRwTgxqAGeszwtXL

eXgmQEwZDAblScl

That melancholic and resentful look kept flashing in front of his eyes, not fading away even now.stjuCcnzFqVsxWksmPKnppdYdTLPcN

WVnEGZYkgiJjDKy

In his view, if something went wrong, then something must have been a mistake. Either Yue Siming was wrong, or he was.SBJYaPBGtDwCOiICsniivxHixVIKpw

jLRqjDVLIDXAgec

So he tried hard to figure out where the Divine Healer could have been wrong.YceLcEKuKdXqwCwfhmgTnatjBztmha

npCPsYuqTcVEjPr

He thought about it all afternoon but couldn’t figure out where Yue Siming went wrong.MEkQqEGjYBcNizNPKnfYfsRQaOCuVZ

FCsxxaCFLJitYVf

Just like Yue Siming said, it was him who boastfully claimed he wanted to marry him, it was him who led him astray to the point of no longer liking women, and it was still him who caused the Yue family to be left without an heir. Although he always felt these accusations were somewhat unfair, he couldn’t think of how to refute them.TQGBPSjBfobrAlQindGpsqDCbHMIWj

Since he had promised to take responsibility, how could he, as a man, go back on his word?CCkaCyAABekOFmGBWHXwdeZvdXZPig

JfLBuleMhMAAQpS

But was he really going to go with him like this?HKjbeqldPYUmkwMJCXpFzVTYRvRnur

ePCFtIhRwClIIEH

This came too suddenly. He had never thought about it before, but now he was being asked to make a decision right away.zqYWDDqmQaYfWYrYfhMXtCmIaQarQA

JwXbnhAnhxFkZDj

He didn’t know how to describe this feeling. It was as if he had already made up his mind to live in one place for the rest of his life, and he was living there quite contentedly. Then, suddenly, one day, he was forced to relocate, leaving behind familiar places, familiar family, everything he knew, and heading to a completely unfamiliar place. He didn’t know what awaited him there, didn’t know if he would be happy, didn’t know if he would regret it.SVWGscbPhKpTnUoQDawOgGfXCpmPOq

qXOBvwpPzmpfkyk

That sense of awkwardness, confusion, hesitation, anxiety—it was as if… The boy felt a bit embarrassed, wondering if his current feelings were like those of a young woman getting married. He remembered a sister in the Jin family who was about to marry someone far away, and she had clung to him, crying all night, pouring out all her worries. Everything she said seemed to echo what he was feeling now.NJTebGhBSZuVkmTIuEEwoarZQxpIcN

xoWWygNviBgGwNL

When he thought about it, this situation wasn’t all that different from getting married. After all, weren’t he and Yue Siming… a couple?FHncWMfeGlcfKRAxQwAhlntnLoLWuD

XTmylgHvdasodmo

The moment Jinbao thought of this, his face turned beet red.swaFhJPQBItvZlueGdeKeyWouFxVgY

PNvonvTuuIbgPfD

Even now, he couldn’t quite wrap his head around the fact that he and Yue Siming were actually a couple. If Yue Siming hadn’t said it himself, Jinbao probably would never have imagined in his lifetime that they’d end up in this kind of relationship.RVCLBHCHaLniDDORBrETIkDpDNcNHy

htUJbXFlRVfuTOb

When he was younger, he often fantasized about what his future wife would be like—shy, demure, gentle, fiery, capable. She could be anything, but never once had he thought it would be a man, let alone such an extraordinary man.nULZNACifeHmqPjxinJkYAtFqSHgDm

pkINuNNCZdlbbUY

To be fair, aside from being troublesome, sharp-tongued, mean, lustful, and having a bad temper, Yue Siming was quite impressive in every other aspect.aPGfUgUkTITkoMTvpLNzfRknruaSwg

KjZQuZOBRyMMitf

He was incredibly skilled in martial arts, highly proficient in medicine, and on top of all that, he was extremely handsome.slBEyvsQKprKRWRxHAwAGAkSQHnxnj

RKtIQOhpEjWWecY

Jinbao never imagined he could end up with such a beautiful spouse, even if it was a man.YgydgnKXAioJkPHZRyyvKiydnsPOcK

qDPfbdpGzzQsMVP

It’s already quite something for an ordinary person to have one good quality, but Yue Siming had so many. Jinbao felt that he really wasn’t qualified to pick faults with Yue Siming; he should be content.NREQbBbXOlhTOocVcuzQUugRhoFkZK

PmpcCsfSpdtaOYs

His feelings toward Yue Siming had evolved—from initial fear, to disgust, to confusion, to guilt, and now, whenever he thought of him, his face would flush, and his heart would race…sgNXYlHhlmkjzMmaSOrXRMmFFnoCue

ApSOOKoGmLrJlRE

Jinbao buried his head in his knees, his cheeks burning hot. He remembered how he once asked Zhao Cai what it felt like to like someone.YpbCbilXqfXawXrWJHMGabnJyawYBY

OQAgdfxvPGIFKTC

Zhao Cai had said that if you really liked someone, you couldn’t stop thinking about them. Sometimes it felt sweet, sometimes frustrating. If that person was happy, you’d be happy too; if they were sad, you’d feel sad along with them.aSCiEeypMOUCzoioWGEurmMVTfITmh

QEwbCkbVmTZXQmP

Jinbao thought his feelings were quite similar to what Zhao Cai described. Could it be that he really did have feelings for Yue Siming?PSMAinihooAQKwPiqzdclgUOoYfSwd

apYGlVJBkEqxKgz

Now, whenever he thought of Yue Siming’s face, he felt even more nervous than when he saw a pretty girl. When Yue Siming snuggled into his arms, he felt a rush of manly pride, like he was protecting his beloved wife. And when Yue Siming was hurt, it pained him deeply. Did this mean he liked Yue Siming?DwPKQYfCsdQAxCievejYGDDnYVksaV

TbvzBEpdFqNThuH

The boy was shocked by the conclusion he finally reached after a whole day without eating or drinking, but at the same time, he felt a sense of relief.heouZMCdXOMTDCLNJLZdOugHxrfgOq

XJsagxvJizWENOX

Yes, this made sense. He did have feelings for Yue Siming. With how Yue Siming treated him, it seemed Yue Siming had feelings for him too. The two of them were indeed a couple, so it was only right for Yue Siming to want him to go with him.krzfuGceDuSSueyvQEZUmkFjnDsmjU

Jinbao felt like his mind was split in two—one side with the young master and Zhao Cai, and the other with Yue Siming.CkJFdjtYSNbPzYUkgjkfGDyVLMFaTn

He couldn’t let go of the young master, and he couldn’t bear to leave Zhao Cai, but he also had a responsibility toward Yue Siming.lhCadZBLZbfFrOiRdxhmyrLcyhJxXy

kLfUBJMmxzxSmcH

Jinbao had never made such an important decision in his life. Even though he finally understood what was going on between him and Yue Siming, the problem still circled back to the original question: Should he go with Yue Siming or not?VckUlhISsNWbeePNzwjriVGFJAhjgE

“Ahhhhhh—!” The boy clutched his head and howled at the sky. Who could show him the right path?cdhrnLrcpLBJthTpNPMUDktzgtdWfG

“If Xiao Rou marries me, she’ll live with me, of course. If the young master stays in Dali long-term, then we’ll live here too.”
“If… if Miss Xiaorou plans to go somewhere else, far away from the young master and me, would you still follow her?”ewyevidxqKLMndzDCQHCuEwVXzFnQr

Jinbao, being cautious, didn’t dare to mention that it was related to Que Siming. Instead, he said, “I see that things are going well between you and Miss Xiaorou, so I was just thinking… what if I get married someday but can’t stay with you guys? What then?”EIlHCbnneVgObwHNmWAdcItAyivhZH

Zhaocai looked at Jinbao, a bit surprised and uneasy. For the first time, he couldn’t figure out what Jinbao was thinking, which made him uncomfortable. It felt like the child he had raised now had secrets of his own that he couldn’t understand.JaEQKZgLZblZRmBcIXLlVXhUYuFugn

Jinbao was stunned. “Really?”XjEKLTRgSjxRQCXpeigwhBKxAdhKOQ

YoHLydbIPYyMZyN

“Of course. Someday, I’ll get married, and so will the young master. Do you think you can stay a follower your whole life? Besides, just because you leave doesn’t mean you’ll never come back. It’s not like we’ll never see each other again. But the person you like, you might only have one chance in your entire life—how could you miss that?”BDwVXBwiBhHxjErjDnHdOlDWpKQetb

Jinbao blinked, feeling a bit lost for a moment.CtjxHRFcKnimxfifcZNbxGDqEKLOlg

“Don’t worry. The young master won’t make things difficult for you. We’re not kids anymore. If you settle down, we’ll be happy for you. Even if it’s a girl with a troubled background, as long as she’s sincere with you, that’s all that matters.”kAtHkZepZRUnMcFvfGRABrZrIldPey

Jinbao nodded in a daze, then suddenly, as if enlightened, he tightly grasped Zhaocai’s hand. “Zhaocai, you’re right. You always have the best ideas. Thank you!”StFDOwxSVtuZQGZbUMlVuxoAnoxgpR

Que Siming glared at him. “Who asked for your help? You’re filthy—stay away from me.”VptJtZMAjAeAaOWGsEBlVlyFxVxsfs

Stunned by the harsh rejection, Jinbao froze, unsure of what to do with his hands and feet, just standing there helplessly.iUNqgGbSNKQEdYhxaZmnuxLWbAVcdL

The doctor continued unwrapping the bandage from his shoulder, wincing and hissing in pain.AreDrYBKrKbISzZiUbScOLAWrDeRJt

Jinbao watched as he slowly peeled away the bandage, revealing a wound that was starting to scab over. It still looked bloody and terrifying. When Que Siming got to the last bit, the bandage stuck to the wound.aiMHMqqComEjQGHAyWAtmRFvxWmqOh

Jinbao quickly stepped forward, “Let me help you with that.”nyuXYoJtvdPgHmJajVioqGkzvWApXR

Que Siming looked up and glared at him, then, out of spite, yanked the bandage off forcefully. The bandage came off, but fresh blood immediately began to seep from the newly healed area.DFOPsMoYJpteNUHxhpdCsyycTMbwBu

Jinbao gasped and hurriedly grabbed some medicinal powder, sprinkling it on the wound as he anxiously said, “What are you doing?”DTxFDJhhpnAnOXmTXSEChMmmYVBpzd

The doctor kicked him away. “Who needs your fake concern? Go worry about that worthless young master of yours. Even if my hand is crippled, it’s none of your business.”kbWAfRsATBvRudHYpfnYEdhSKqZiuY

OWcRfsArouvYeRu

Jinbao’s face flushed, turning pale and then purple. Que Siming’s horrifying wound felt like evidence of his guilt. Every time he saw it, he felt he owed Que Siming, knowing that the injury should have been his. Que Siming had shielded him, taken a knife for him, and he hadn’t even repaid him yet, but he’d already managed to hurt him. He felt like the lowest of the low.GJLhQtbtXYVOyKHCMPRSfvXyeiFYer

The more furious Que Siming got, the more Jinbao felt he’d done wrong, and his guilt deepened.JkiNTPOiCGEKKCeEwtokmAkVfOHhxE
