Ruozhu forced back the tears and nodded heavily at Jiang Yichun, saying, “You’re right, and thank you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tears filled her big eyes, making them wet and glistening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up at him in such a manner revealed a side of her he never seen before, reminiscent of a docile deer, compelling a sense of tenderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun extended his hand towards her face, but stopped halfway, fearful of making her uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he ruffled her hair gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fool, you don’t need to be polite with me.” His voice was hushed, permeated with deep affection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Bai Ruozhu had a lot on her mind, she noticed his action and felt a warmth cascade over her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having someone like him there to support and help her was truly a blessing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She no longer had to shoulder everything alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, I admit I approached you initially with an ulterior motive, though I wasn’t clear on what it was at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I later realized that I was attracted to you, and I just couldn’t help myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wanted to be around you, listen to you talk, and watch your every move.” Seeing Bai Ruozhu fall silent, he became worried, afraid she would still find him suspect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he need to sacrifice his dignity to investigate a case?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu lowered her head, and unexpectedly clung to his clothes, burying her face in his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun was taken by surprise and felt his heart flutter wildly, a surge of joy coursing through him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t move, I just want to lean on your shoulder!” Bai Ruozhu said in a soft voice that held a hint of a sob.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun already had his arm raised, ready to pull her into his embrace, but with her recent command, he froze, leaving his arm suspended in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu trembled slightly as she leaned on his shoulder and began to cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d always heard that when one cries, a solid shoulder to lean on was essential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she finally understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was tall and his shoulder was lean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contact wasn’t particularly comfortable, but it gave her a sense of security.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After crying, she felt much relieved and her mood slowly began to calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to lift her head and wipe her tears, but found herself drawn to the warmth of his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She decided to lean against it a little while longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did she notice his arms still suspended in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stifled a laugh, finding this silly side of him surprisingly endearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hand, holding onto his clothes, was now very close to his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the quietness, she could hear the strong and steady pulses of his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the rate seemed a little fast?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu was feeling much better, and whispered, “Thank you,” into his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun, realizing she wasn’t crying anymore, finally gathered up the courage to wrap his arm around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their bodies jolted closer, his earnestness forcing her body to press tightly against his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu’s face flushed, his warm embrace overwhelming her, leaving a tingling sensation across her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt almost weightless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that when you touched your fated lover — when your energies matched — even a simple touch would produce electricity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t believe in such unscientific theory, but now she was forced to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at that moment, she sensed a change in him that alarmed her and hurriedly pulled away, retreating to her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun retreated behind the table, using it to shield his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was tinged a light pink and he clenched his teeth, chastising himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dreaded Bai Ruozhu finding out, worrying she might think he was a perverse lecher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know that Bai Ruozhu was from a modern era, a mature woman who had been busy studying and working overseas without any romantic encounters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it didn’t mean she was ignorant of relationships between men and women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without watching any explicit films, with the prevalence of the internet, she definitely must know about those things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, in Bai Ruozhu’s eyes, while feeling embarrassed, she wouldn’t find it revulsive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun was young and full of life, it was only natural for him to have such reactions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, considering her figure, if there were no reactions from him, she would worry that there might be a problem on his part.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu cleared her throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stray thoughts began to cloud her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun’s scent lingered in her nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, she remembered the scent from when she was giving birth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Abruptly lifting her head to look at him, she asked, “Are you still keeping things from me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did I smell your scent when I was giving birth?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun’s face, already flushed, turned a darker red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was reluctant to meet Bai Ruozhu’s eyes directly, but her intense gaze and her insistent tone compelled him to confess, “You had a massive bleeding after childbirth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?” Bai Ruozhu was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been suffering from qi and blood deficiency postpartum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the time, she had chalked it up to blood loss during labor and didn’t think it was due to postpartum hemorrhage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I didn’t peek at you!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an emergency, and I couldn’t get the female doctor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, I was not sure she would be able to save you, so I had no choice but to administer acupuncture to stop the hemorrhage.” Jiang Yichun’s voice got increasingly fainter with each word, and he dared not even glance at Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During postpartum, she was lying there with her legs spread out, covered in blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sight must have been gruesome, and he saw everything!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t there a saying that men who witness childbirth develop psychological barriers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t he disgusted?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu felt anxious, followed by an overwhelming sense of embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wished she could slap herself — why did she need to delve so deep?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would have been better to remain oblivious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once she considered the grave danger she was in at that time, she felt a surge of gratitude towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he hadn’t stepped in to help her, she wouldn’t have been as fortunate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you.” Bai Ruozhu’s voice was barely audible, it was almost like a cat’s meow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I told you, there’s no need for courtesy.” Jiang Yichun wished he could disappear into a hole in the ground, afraid Bai Ruozhu would be angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly said, “You should rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will leave now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu, dying of embarrassment, not knowing how to face him, hurriedly said, “Alright, you should rest soon as well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun more or less escaped the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when he was a good distance away did he stop to catch his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was burning hot, and a similar heat enveloped his lower body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was uncomfortable but he also felt an odd satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon he laughed at his cowardice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He should have bravely told her, “Now that I’ve seen everything, you’re mine!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head with a bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought Bai Ruozhu would most likely kick him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu closed the window, and only after a while did her face return to normal, though she felt extremely unsettled.\u003C\u002Fp>",1230,"2026-05-30T14:08:51.305Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","a3cdd5db3be7325b9d4c952e8a84166e9c528bafbea688f8fd9933798b4b6dd6","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-292","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-290",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
