Chapter 105
Kill Du Ruo? Jiang Li shook his head. "I couldn't bear to."
Even if Du Ruo really were a monster, she would definitely be a good monster; otherwise, how could she risk such a great danger to save Qin Shi and her child?
What's more, he had already given his heart to Du Ruo.
Killing her would be the same as killing himself.
Seeing that Jiang Li didn't seem to be joking, Du Ruo became serious. "Don't worry, Husband, I'm not a monster, I'm a human, I'm your wife."
She rolled over onto the man and poked his clearly defined jawline with her fleshy fingers, one by one.
"I know, the things that happened in the last two days seem a bit strange, and you surely have many questions in your heart, and I want to tell you everything. It's just that some things are truly too difficult to explain, and even if I said them, you might not be able to understand. Let's just put it this way..."
Du Ruo carefully weighed her words. "Actually, when Du Mingzhu forced me to marry in her place, I was very reluctant."
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow. "Mm?"
"Of course, that was because I didn't know you at the time. If I had known earlier that you, Husband, were so handsome and dashing, and had such a broad chest and strong arms, she wouldn't have needed to force me, I would have sent myself to your door automatically!"
Du Ruo hurriedly blew a wave of rainbow farts and then tried hard to pull the topic back. "So, at that time, I was a bit unable to think straight and intended to die."
Jiang Li's expression gradually became solemn. "And then?"
"And then, I desperately used my head to hit the sedan door, wanting to hit myself to death."
"..."
"Who knew my skull was too hard; I didn't die, but I fainted."
"..."
"After that, I had a very, very long dream, dreaming that I went to another world, where people could fly in the sky, where mounts could travel ten thousand *li* a day, where doctors all wore white coats, and where they could open up a person's head, sew it back up, and they would still be living perfectly well."
"Fairy Realm?"
Besides the Fairy Realm, Jiang Li truly couldn't think of any other place that had such great abilities.
"Maybe." Du Ruo laughed awkwardly. "I dreamed that I lived there for a long time, learned medical skills, and some simple suturing techniques, and then I woke up."
Jiang Li had a sudden realization. "So that's why you know medicine, Wife?"
Du Ruo nodded. "Yes, although it can't be counted as a divine doctor, there's definitely no problem with ordinary illnesses."
Jiang Li was silent. He seemed to have married an incredible wife; she could cook and earn money, and now it turned out her medical skills were so amazing.
"Then, is conjuring things out of thin air also a spell you learned in the Fairy Realm?"
Du Ruo instantly choked.
"I... suppose so. But it's not like I can conjure anything, and it costs money. For example, the long chair Cousin-in-law slept on yesterday, called an operating table, is specifically for suturing patients, and it cost one hundred taels of silver to conjure!"
Ten taels of silver for one point, didn't ten points equal exactly one hundred taels?
With things said to this point, Jiang Li understood everything.
In other words, Du Ruo had had a strange encounter by chance, gone to the Fairy Realm to study for a period of time, and that was why she knew so much.
Fortunately, fortunately his wife was human; if she really were a god or a monster, he would truly be afraid that one day she would be like that operating table and suddenly disappear.
"By the way, where did that one hundred taels come from?"
Du Ruo sighed.
As expected, someone who was a constable was not easy to fool; he really knew how to grab the key points.
"I borrowed it, and I have to pay back two hundred taels later..." Du Ruo said weakly.
She had no choice; it was all to save a life.
Jiang Li's eyelids twitched; two hundred taels was not a small amount, and it would take him several years to earn it back.
In order for his wife to conjure whatever she wanted as she pleased, it seemed he would have to work hard to earn more money in the future...
"Wife, shall we consummate our marriage?" Jiang Li flipped over and put his plump wife underneath him.
Du Ruo widened her squinting eyes. "Why?"
Weren't they just talking about serious matters? Why did the style suddenly change?
"No reason, I just want you." Jiang Li lowered his head and kissed her lips, his large palm tentatively reaching toward Du Ruo's waist.
*Slap*, Du Ruo directly slapped away his unruly hand.
"Jiang Li, you promised me, until I look good, we absolutely will not consummate our marriage!"
The first experience of two lifetimes, of course, had to be beautiful. As long as she thought of the image of herself rolling in the sheets with Jiang Li with a body full of fat, Du Ruo could have a cerebral hemorrhage in minutes.
Jiang Li's lips curled. "I don't think you're ugly."
Du Ruo *hmph*-ed. "Anyway, I don't agree."
Jiang Li had no choice but to roll off, his handsome face disappointed.
Seeing him like this, Du Ruo felt somewhat guilty; after all, they were husband and wife, and that sort of thing was only right, and Jiang Li was at an age full of vigor.
"Husband, if you're really very uncomfortable, then... shall I help you?" Du Ruo bit her lip, trying hard to build her psychological defenses.
Jiang Li turned his head and looked at her suspiciously. "How to help?"
Du Ruo had no choice but to lean into his ear and mutter a few words, enduring the shame.
After listening, Jiang Li went completely stiff, his eyes full of disbelief. "Did you learn this in the Fairy Realm too?"
*Boom*, Du Ruo's head instantly exploded, her face turning so red it could drip blood.
"If you don't want it, forget it, I didn't want to help anyway!" She angrily turned her back and covered her head with the quilt.
The man behind her took a long time to react.
Suddenly, he felt a bit of regret.
Originally, he just lacked a bit of security, so he wanted to consummate the marriage with his wife sooner to feel more at ease; as for whether he was uncomfortable or not, it was actually fine.
Who knew his wife would come up with such a move? Alright, now he was truly a bit uncomfortable.
*Sigh*, if he had known, he should have agreed immediately; why did he have to say so much...
Jiang Li smiled bitterly, shook his head, and waved his palm to extinguish the lamp.
The room instantly fell into darkness, leaving only light, rustling sounds.
