‘As soon as her feet touched the ground, she felt a sharp pain coming from her calf. The pain made her frown.
“You’re awake!”
The familiar voice made Mu Wan, who was lowering her head in pain, momentarily dazed.
This voice was.
She looked up to see that Helian Zhen had indeed pushed open the door and entered the room. Then, he headed straight for the bed.
It really was Helian Zhen.
“You…”
It had been three years since they last met.
Seeing the surprise on her face, Helian Zhen grinned. “I see that you are shocked, but aren’t you pleasantly surprised?”
‘Mu Wan’s expression froze.
‘When she saw Helian Zhen, she was indeed very shocked. However, it was also a pleasant surprise.
“Why are you… here?”
Helian Zhen stared at her. “Shouldn’t I be the one asking you this?”
Mu Wan was stunned for a moment before she smiled sadly.
Indeed, Helian Zhen should be the one asking this question.
He was Gu Tingyuan’s best friend, so it was normal for him to be here.
“That’s true.” Looking at Helian Zhen, Mu Wan smiled. “Long time no see.”
Indeed, it had been three years since they last met.
Now that he knew the reason, Helian Zhen didn’t continue to ask Mu Wan why she was at the Imperial View Manor and why she had become Ting’s secret wife.
“How are you? Do you feel better?” As he spoke, Helian Zhen had already raised his hand to Mu Wan’s forehead to see if her fever had subsided.
Mu Wan was a little taken aback by the doctor’s instinctive reaction.
“Yes, your fever should have subsided.” Helian Zhen didn’t notice Mu Wan’s discomfort and continued to check the wound on her calf.
Mu Wan just stared at him as he busied himself with her injuries.
Three years ago, Helian Zhen was still a fresh graduate who had just entered the medical field. He was funny and humorous. She remembered that when she first met him, he would always tease her and the relationship between her and Gu Tingyuan.
In the blink of an eye, three years had passed, and Helian Zhen was now more restrained and calm.
The only thing that didn’t change was that it was much easier to interact with him than with Gu Tingyuan.
“Helian Zhen.”
Looking at his busy figure, Mu Wan suddenly spoke.
Helian Zhen was taking the medicine when he heard Mu Wan’s voice. He turned around and smiled at her. “We’re not that distant. Just call me Helian!”
Calling him “Zhen” seemed to be too intimate, so most people called him by his surname, “Helian’.
Mu Wan smiled. Three years ago, she called him that too.
“Um, do you know… How did I come back?”
She must have been locked up in the house in the backyard by Mu Han. Why was she in the manor when she woke up?
Helian Zhen brought over the medicine that he had concocted and replaced the dressing on her calf while answering her question. “I’m not sure about that. I only know that Ting called me yesterday and asked me to come over.”
As he spoke, Helian Zhen paused and looked up at Mu Wan. “Mu Wan, to be honest, I thought that you would never meet Ting again in this lifetime. I didn’t expect you to become his wife so quietly. Tell me, have you been keeping secrets from me these past three years? In fact, have you been secretly
contacting each other?”
‘Mu Wan was stunned. She didn’t know how to answer Helian Zhen.
How could she and Gu Tingyuan have been in contact for the past three years? They were even more distant than strangers.
Three years ago, she had left, and so had he.
She also thought that she would never be able to interact with Gu Tingyuan again in this lifetime.. However, the moment he came back, she became his wife.
