Supreme Divine Physician in the City

Chapter 1694: My Wife Isn’t Innocent Anymore

Lin Tong froze for a moment and pouted, "Don’t you have your maid?"Ye Xuan shook his head, "The maid can’t sleep in the same room with me."

Lin Tong huffed, "Surely someone else will keep you company."

"No, I refuse." Ye Xuan still shook his head, "It would be fine under normal circumstances, but now I’m injured, and I can’t afford it, especially with Qiuge and Ying, you know how rowdy they get."

Lin Tong blushed at his words.

Darn Ye Xuan, can you not speak so bluntly?

Lin Tong glared at Ye Xuan with annoyance, "Then what do you want?"

"Hehe." Ye Xuan grinned mischievously, "Of course I want my wife to accompany me. Out of everyone, you’re the smartest and most careful, I can trust you to take care of me!"

Ye Xuan had been scheming for a while; her sneaking into his room to stay overnight last time was already enough indication that if Ye Xuan could trick her into sleeping over again, anything could happen.

This time, being seriously injured is definitely an opportunity.

Sure enough, after hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Lin Tong’s cheeks flushed immediately. Although her heart might want to refuse, she couldn’t quite say the words of rejection.

Lin Tong also knew, given Ye Xuan’s current situation, it wouldn’t be right for her as his wife not to care for him, and she would feel guilty herself.

Thus, Lin Tong was torn, caught in a brief internal struggle.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan’s eyes flashed, and he laughed, "Wife, how about this, let’s play a little game. If you win, pretend I never said anything. If I win, you’ll be responsible for taking care of me for the next three days, how about it?"

Lin Tong pondered.

A moment later, she felt that this was a solution.

If she lost, she’d accept her fate.

If she won, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have any complaints, and she wouldn’t feel too guilty.

So Lin Tong decisively agreed, "Alright, I’ll play with you!"

"Great, wife, you’re really straightforward!"

Seeing Lin Tong agree so heartily, Ye Xuan felt wonderful.

Lin Tong pursed her lips, glanced at Ye Xuan, and asked, "What game are we playing?"

"Hmm, let me think."

Ye Xuan stroked his chin in contemplation, "It’s late at night; playing other games would be too convoluted and time-consuming. How about we play a riddle guessing game? I ask, you guess, best two out of three? How about it?"

"Riddles?"

Lin Tong’s elegant eyebrows arched, evidently unfamiliar with such trivial games due to her simple and dull life growing up.

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but chuckle at her expression.

He had a purpose; there’s no way he would choose something Lin Tong was good at.

"Wife, guessing riddles is very simple. With your IQ, it won’t stump you!" Ye Xuan coaxed.

Lin Tong glanced at Ye Xuan, easily seeing through his little schemes.

But upon consideration, she felt there was no need to insist on playing something she’s good at—it’d be unfair to Ye Xuan, especially since taking care of him is what she should be doing.

Lin Tong decisively nodded, "Alright, let’s play riddles, you ask."

"Great, wife, you’re truly a heroine; I have to admire!"

Ye Xuan was overjoyed, his eyes gleaming mischievously as he asked, "Guess the makeup product; what’s the answer?"

Upon hearing the question, Lin Tong was immediately taken aback.

Ye Xuan almost couldn’t hold back his laughter.

While Lin Tong is indeed a genius with an extraordinary brain, even geniuses have their weaknesses.

Evidently, a riddle like this was one Lin Tong couldn’t answer to save her life.

In contrast, Leng Qiuge and Liu Ying might know the answer easily, because... they were quite mischievous.

The atmosphere was tense for a moment.

Lin Tong showed a look of embarrassment and hesitantly looked to Ye Xuan, "Can we change the riddle?"

"No."

Ye Xuan said seriously, "If we’re playing a game, we have to follow the rules. If you want to change the riddle because you don’t know the answer, I’d definitely lose."

"I know the answer to this riddle, but..." Lin Tong blushed, somewhat annoyed, "I don’t want to say it."

Ye Xuan evidently didn’t believe her, "That doesn’t make sense. If you know, why wouldn’t you say? Wife, don’t forget, I was once a famous prodigy in Yan Country, not easy to fool!"

"You..."

Lin Tong was so frustrated she wanted to punch Ye Xuan again.

This guy is too shameless!

Asking such mischievous riddles, how can she say it aloud?

Seeing Lin Tong’s angry demeanor, Ye Xuan was even happier, "Hehe, wife, if you don’t answer in ten seconds, you lose this round, okay?"

Lin Tong: "I..."

Ye Xuan’s smile faded as he began counting down, "Ten, nine..."

As the numbers shrank one by one.

Lin Tong’s blush deepened even more.

"Three, two..."

When Ye Xuan reached this point, Lin Tong finally couldn’t sit still.

Clenching her teeth, Lin Tong reluctantly uttered the answer: "..."

After speaking, Lin Tong immediately covered her beautiful, blushing face with both hands, feeling so embarrassed she couldn’t face anyone.

The air became still.

Ye Xuan was dumbfounded too, his mischievous grin gradually stiffening, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief as he stared at Lin Tong.

Wife, you’re not so innocent anymore!

When did this happen?

When did you start knowing the answers to riddles like this?

Oh my gosh!

Leng Qiuge, Liu Ying, haven’t you two gone too far, even influencing her?

No, that’s impossible!

"It must be a coincidence!"

Ye Xuan shook himself out of his stupor, staring at Lin Tong in disbelief and asked, "Second question?"

Lin Tong, hiding her face, felt even more annoyed upon hearing the second question.

Ye Xuan was obviously doing it on purpose, always asking such questions!

But having answered the first, relatively speaking, the second wasn’t as hard; she was already hiding her face anyway.

Thus, this time Lin Tong didn’t wait for Ye Xuan’s countdown and answered directly, "It’s...!"

Instantly!

Ye Xuan’s eyes widened, his pupils contracting, staring at Lin Tong as if struck by lightning, completely stunned.

Oh my god!

Leng Qiuge, Liu Ying!

You two murderous scoundrels, when did you taint my pure and innocent wife? Give me back my pure, kind, and beautiful wife!

Ye Xuan was defiant, "Third question!"

Before Ye Xuan could finish speaking.

Lin Tong quickly raised her hand to stop him, "Enough, best two out of three, you’ve already lost!"

"I..."

A large embarrassed expression appeared on Ye Xuan’s face.

I don’t accept this, I don’t!

Lin Tong secretly exhaled, then stood up, swiftly concealing her shame and anger, coldly looked at Ye Xuan and said, "It seems it’s meant to be this way, you... figure it out yourself."
