137. Remained A Couple For The Rest Of A Life Time
[BL] MY TOUGH HUSBAND BOOK 1
Han Tingxuan had no idea that his male wife had almost been killed in the imperial palace. The next morning when he woke up, he felt a little dizzy. He had a bad feeling that something was wrong. Was he having a cold?
He felt his forehead. Oh no! It seemed like he was having a fever.
Han Tingxuan was speechless by this discovery. He didn't do anything special yesterday, did he? Was it because he came back a little late at night, so he caught a cold?
That was lame.
Han Tingxuan felt even more helpless when he felt dizzier as he got out of bed. When he spoke, he realized that his voice was hoarse. âQian Yun. Fang Hui.â
Even though Han Tingxuan's voice wasn't very loud, Qian Yun and Fang Hui heard him immediately. They hurriedly walked inside.
Qian Yun knew that Han Tingxuan was not doing well and asked, "What's wrong with you?â
Han Tingxuan smiled bitterly. "Not very good. I should have a cold."
Fang Hui immediately said, "I'll go get a doctor."
Han Tingxuan did not say no. Fang Hui quickly left.
Qian Yun was worried, "Are you okay? You donât look very well.â
Han Tingxuan smiled bitterly. "Of course I donât look very well. I am having a cold.â
"I will use the internal force."
"No need," Han Tingxuan waved his hand. "It will only make me feel better, but not get me recovered. The main reason is that I am not that strong."
Han Tingxuan did not think that his physique was too bad in the modern world. However, he seemed to be a little weak here. Everyone with marital arts here would not catch a cold!
However, the problem was that although he hadn't stopped practicing internal force these days, it was not that efficient. Even Mo Yanzhi and Han told him that it would take many years to accomplish something.
Fang Hui was quick enough to get a doctor. At the same time, Tian Yutu, who had already received the news, came over together. Meanwhile, Han did not come along. It was said that he had left early in the morning and did not tell what to do.
Tian Yusu glanced at the person on the bed. "It's just a little breeze, but you caught a cold.â
The corner of Han Tingxuan's mouth twitched and he said, "Can you be quiet?" There was nothing he could do with his health problem.
Tian Yusu sighed. "You are so fragile. I feel so for that. Strange. Why did Han not teach you martial arts?â
"He did," said Han Tingxuan. "But I donât have the talent for it. Understand?"
This time, it is Tian Yusu's turn to be speechless. Are you not embarrassing at all?!
Han Tingxuan was not ashamed at all!
The doctor diagnosed that Han Tingxuan was having a cold.
As the cold was acute, the doctor had prescribed a lot of medicine. When Han Tingxuan saw the prescription, he felt terrible. The medicinal herbs were bitter to take.
The medicine was quickly prepared. Tian Yusu was amused by how painful Han Tingxuan was when he drank the herb soup.
Han Tingxuan took a deep breath and downed the bitter medicine in one go.
After finishing the medicine, Fang Hui said Zhou Rong and his son were visiting.
Han Tingxuan shook his head. "Tell them that I'm not feeling well. Come back another day."
Fang Hui accepted the order and left.
Han Tingxuan coughed and looked at Tian Yusu. "Where's Han?"
"He went out early in the morning. I don't know what he is doing," Tian Yusu said. But Han Tingxuan kind of felt that Tian Yusu was complaining.
Han Tingxuan looked at Tian Yusu with a strange look. "Well⦠You did not have a second thought about Han, did you?"
Tian Yusu's expression changed slightly, then he looked at Han Tingxuan and said with a faint smile, "Oh? What if I say yes? What are you going to do?â
Han Tingxuan was speechless for a moment, but he could sense how serious Tian Yusu was.
He kind of sensed that Tian Yusu was telling the truth.
"Uncle⦠Han is like my younger brother. Like his older brother, I hope that my younger brother can be happy. If you are serious and you two love each other, like Yanzhi and I, I am happy for you. If Han is uninterested in you, or even though you like Han but you feel the same way about others, I donât think you should tell Han how you feel. He is a simple man, easy to be taken advantage of.â
Han Tingxuan spoke while shaking one's head. Tian Yusu understood what he meant.
Han Tingxuan smiled lightly. "Have you heard the saying, remain a couple for the rest of a lifetime."
Tian Yusu was stunned.
Han Tingxuan looked directly into his eyes. "I know that it's not a big deal that a he-man marries more than one male wife, but thatâs not what I am looking for. I believe it is not what Han was looking for, either. Uncle, do you understand what I mean?â
Tian Yusu took a deep breath and didn't speak.
Han Tingxuan smiled and didn't say anything else.
At this moment, the person they were discussing, Han, finally came back from outside. He was carrying two bowls of specialty snacks, including dumplings and some buns.
Han was a little surprised to see Tian Yusu, but he only had a glance at him.
"Han Tingxuan, I brought breakfast back," Han said.
Even though Han Tingxuan was not feeling well and didn't have a good appetite, he was instantly interested in the two bowls of hot dumplings. He smiled and said, "You came back in time. I'm catching a cold and I happen to have no interest in any food now. But the dumplings you are carrying caught my attention.â
"You are having a cold?" Han immediately frowned. "Let me take a look."
After feeling Han Tingxuanâs pulse, Han said, "Yes, you are catching a cold, not poisoned."
Han Tingxuan smiled. "How can I be poisoned so easily? Don't worry. I am fine."
Han set the table and Han Tingxuan sat down at the table.
Han prepared the breakfast.
Han Tingxuan blinked and said, "There are only two portions."
He nodded coldly. "Mmm, Isnât it enough for you and me?"
Han Tingxuan looked at Tian Yusu with sympathy. Tian Yusu did not look very well.
Han Tingxuan was amused.
"Not like that. Uncle is here. If there is extra, we could share some with him. Unfortunately, there is no extra, "said Han Tingxuan with a smile.
Han said directly, "He has a lot of men to wait on him. He can order them to buy breakfast anytime he wants.â
Tian Yusu looked terrible. Han Tingxuan found out that Han was seriously alienating Tian Yusu since that day when he saw Qing Yi sitting on Tian Yusu's lap.
Han, do you know that the more you try to keep your distance from Tian Yusu, the more you mind what had happened that day.
However, Han Tingxuan did not intend to alert Han because Tian Yusu needed to take more tests.
If he hadn't met Han and had not eaten those fruits, he and Yanzhi might not be able to have a child in their lives!
He and Mo Yanzhi had considered Han as their brother. He wished the best for Han. Especially when it came to such a lifetime thing, there was no mistake allowed.
Han Tingxuan smiled and said. "Uncle, I'm sorry that we donât have extra share food for you. If you will excuse us.â
The corner of Tian Yusu's mouth twitched slightly. He tightly pursed the corner of his mouth and glared at Han Tingxuan before he left.
Han paused for a moment but quickly dug in.
"Big Brother, eat more. If it's not enough, I'll buy it again."
"Okay," Han Tingxuan smiled. "Han, you should eat more too."
"Yes."
It took Han Tingxuan four days before he was completely recovered.
Not just because he was sick, it did not mean he had not done anything for the past four days.
Normally, Han Tingxuan came here because of Zhou Rong's case. Now that Zhou Rong and his son were already fine, Han Tingxuan shouldn't stay any longer.
But he was assigned for another decree, which was to investigate the situation of State of Qing, State of Song, Qi Zhou! Therefore, Han Tingxuan stayed for a good reason.
Han Tingxuan did not show any intention of picking on Sun Yuan on purpose, but for the past few days, he had caused quite a lot of trouble to Sun Yuan.
Since so many people died in the temple, Han Tingxuan immediately convicted Sun Yuan of their lack of governing. Because of this, he even grabbed the chance to take over the control of the case, leaving Sun Yuan and Official Wang to assist him.
Sun Yuan and Official Wang couldn't explain why so many people died of the fire, which made Han Tingxuan angry again.
In the past two days, Han Tingxuan refused to see them. He arranged for Liu Yong and Fang Hui to handle them.
Tian Yusu's secret guard and dozens of Han Tingxuanâs guards had searched the secret tunnel under the temple thoroughly for any clues. At last, they found a token saying 'Shadowless'.
The guards also searched everywhere outside the tunnel every day. They hoped that they could find clues about the Haishan The Elderly. But unfortunately, they did not get anything.
Han Tingxuan felt that he must have overlooked somethingâ¦
But what did he just ignore?
"Han Tingxuan, someone is looking for you outside," Han said as he walked in.
Han Tingxuan raised an eyebrow. "Who is it?"
"He gave me this and said that if you want to see him, you should go to Restaurant of Bon Appetite," Han said as he gave Han Tingxuan a jade pendant.
When Han Tingxuan saw the jade, he knew who was looking for him. It was Yang Shuo!
Why was Yang Shuo here? Han Tingxuan nodded. "Han, come with me."
"Alright," Han agreed.
Then, Han Tingxuan, Han, and Qian Yun went to the Restaurant of Bon Appetite.
When they reached the Restaurant of Bon Appetite, they went to the private room. Not long after, Yang Shuo arrived.
"Brother Han," Yang Shuo looked serious.
Han Tingxuan paused and immediately asked, "What's wrong? Did something terrible happen?â
Yang Shuo said, "I received news that my man saw a troop gathered in the State of Qing. However, my fellowmen only had time to say this before he died. There are many assassins behind him. Although we have dealt with those assassins, we couldn't get any useful news. This was what happened three days ago. I rushed to report the news. "
"A troop is gathering?" Han Tingxuan was shocked and stood up.
"That's right," Yang Shuo nodded. "Yes, a troop. These are the last words that my man said. The location is in the State of Qing, but I don't know where exactly it is in the State of Qing."
Han Tingxuan was mortified. So was Shadow Two.
Han Tingxuan asked in detail about what happened back then, and Yang Shuo explained in more detail.
After leaving the Restaurant of Bon Appetite, Han Tingxuan took a deep breath and calmed down before heading back to the government office.
At that time, Tian Yusu came from the outside when Han Tingxuan stopped him.
"Uncle, I'm looking for you," Han Tingxuan smiled. "Are you free for a walk outside?â
Tian Yusu looked at Han Tingxuan strangely, but he did not refuse. "Okay."
The two of them walked outside. On the street, Han Tingxuan stopped at a corner and said softly, "Uncle, there is a troop gathering in the State of Qing."
Tian Yusu was stunned, then he was shocked. "What?"
Han Tingxuan smiled but his eyes were not smiling. "Uncle, someone is too ambitious.â
Tian Yusu couldnât be more mortified.
Han Tingxuan took a deep look at him. "Uncle, I think I need your help."
Tian Yusu was stunned and immediately asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Han Tingxuan smiled. "We are going to put on a show."
