The cold husband can't warm me up, I don't love him anymore

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the expression on Shen Du's face instantly became tense.

"What kind of discomfort is it? Have you told Doctor Feng? If that's the case, why open a clinic? Just take good care of yourself..."

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, stopped talking abruptly, and looked at her vigilantly.

But Cui Lingyi had already gotten the answer she wanted.

"Shen Du, tell me, am I sick? A serious one?"

Shen Du frowned and his expression turned ugly.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You are just a little weak, you don't have any other illness."

"Really? I don't believe it!" Cui Lingyi stared at him steadily.

"Some people say I was born to die because I was a sick baby. What does that mean? Do you know?"

"Who is talking nonsense?" Shen Du suddenly stood up, his face gloomy and cold, "Who told you that?"

"Don't worry about who said it. Just tell me if it's true or not."

Knowing that Shen Du would not tell the truth, Cui Lingyi kept staring at him.

She couldn't believe it.

As long as there is any emotional reaction on his face, you can always find some clues.

The two of them just stared at each other.

After a few breaths, Cui Lingyi realized that this trick didn't work at all.

Because she couldn't stay calm under Shen Du's gaze.

Especially when I noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with his eyes...

"Ali..."

Shen Du suddenly held her hand.

At some point, those eyes, which had always been emotionless, were suddenly filled with lush spring grass.

That was what she had longed for in her previous life but could not obtain.

"Ali, no matter who told you that, or what they told you, don't believe it. Although you were a little weak when you were born, the doctor said that as long as you take good care of yourself, you will be fine. That's why I always told you to rest."

"If you don't believe it, you can think about it. From childhood to adulthood, have you always been fine and never felt any discomfort?"

The affection in his eyes was so strong, and his words were so urgent and sincere.

For a moment, Cui Lingyi almost lost the ability to think.

Most importantly, what Shen Du said is indeed right.

From childhood to adulthood, the phrase she heard most often was "you are weak", and she had never heard that she had any strange disease.

At least, before these two faintings, her health had been good.

If there really was some strange disease, wouldn't it have manifested itself long ago?

"Then tell me, what did my mother say to you the night she died?"

Hearing this, Shen Du's brows softened and he held her hand a little tighter.

"Of course it's our marriage. Your mother told me to treat you well and not let you down. Ah Li, we..."

The man's fiery eyes gripped her, and his sudden rapid breathing startled her.

She quickly shook off Shen Du's hand and took two steps back.

"I don't believe it. Why would you reject me from the marriage? You're lying!"

Shen Du approached her, staring at her with a pair of deep eyes, and his voice was clear and powerful.

"I, Shen Du, swear to heaven that if there is even a trace of falsehood in what I said above, I will die..."

She didn't know why, but when Cui Lingyi heard Shen Du cursing and swearing like that, her heart started pounding for no reason.

"Who asked you to swear..."

She pushed Shen Du away and ran out of the living room quickly.

Behind her where she couldn't see, Shen Du slightly raised the corners of his lips.

There was a rare tenderness in his eyes.

"Silly girl, I didn't marry you. I didn't grow old with you. How could I die?"

But such tenderness only lasted for a moment and then disappeared.

"Somebody come!"

"Sir, what are your orders?"

Jiulie, who had been waiting outside, appeared in response.

"Go find Buddha's Hand and ask her if there was anything unusual at the clinic today? Did someone say something that shouldn't have been said to Ah Li?"

"Yes, sir. I will go now."

Jiulie responded and left.

Shen Du sat back at the table, tapping the tabletop with his slender fingers, making crisp thumping sounds.

No one knew the circumstances of Cui Lingyi's birth.

He also found out about this from what Mrs. Cui said.

Even if Feng Zhenzhu accidentally revealed the medical condition, she would not have mentioned anything about the stillbirth.

who can that be?

For so many years, he stayed by her side and watched her grow up little by little.

I never thought of letting her know about this and causing her to worry unnecessary.

Except, of course, for those few years when he discovered the truth about his biological mother.

Because it was so unimaginable, he even suffered from aphasia for a time.

Thanks to her, he gradually got better.

During those years, she was indeed neglected.

Alas, the little girl was spoiled by him.

She only remembered his indifference towards her, and completely forgot that he had once made her laugh so hard.

However, in order to explain all this, he couldn't hide the situation of his biological mother.

How could he let Cui Lingyi suffer the same pain he suffered back then?

In the quiet reception room, Shen Du frowned countless times before finally waiting for Jiulie to arrive.

"My Lord, I have found out."

"explain."

It was learned that Cui Zizhen had gone to find Cui Lingyi and was driven out.

Shen Du's face instantly turned as cold as a thousand-year-old ice.

"I forgot about this old man! Go and find him."

"Sir." Jiulie bowed slightly, his voice was a bit flattering, "On the way here, I had someone find him."

Shen Du looked at him with rare admiration.

"where is it?"

"After the Cui family was pardoned, they moved to a house in Green Water Lane in the east of the city."

Shen Du snorted coldly, "There are still industries that have not been cleaned up?"

"Sir, do you want to..." Jiulie hesitated.

I don’t know how Shen Du plans to deal with this matter. Is he really going to beat Cui Lingyi’s father into a mud pit where he can’t get up?

"I will handle this matter myself."

"Yes."

In the clinic, Feng Zhenzhu, who had been working hard, learned about the relevant matters because of Jiulie's sudden arrival.

The brain immediately started to work.

She felt that given Cui Lingyi's personality, she would inevitably ask her about her body.

But she didn't think it was a big problem.

After all, she had been laying the groundwork for so long.

She believed that as long as she did not change her words and insisted that Cui Lingyi had hypoglycemia, there would be no big problem.

In fact, Cui Lingyi did think so.

It's just that the two people stand on different positions.

Cui Lingyi felt that if there was really something wrong with her body, Shen Du would have communicated with Feng Zhenzhu about it.

She went to ask, but got the same result.

So, to know the truth, she had to ask other people.

Therefore, after leaving the Imperial City Division, she did not return to the hospital immediately.

Instead, he asked the driver to go to the Imperial City Street in the east.

There are many imperial doctors living in Xici Lane over there. As long as they are paid, they will also provide medical treatment to ordinary people, but only in private.

Arriving at Xici Lane, Cui Lingyi went to a house with a red gourd hanging on the door and knocked on it.

This is also what she heard from her uncle Li Jingtian.

The salary of the imperial physician is meager, so it would be good if I could earn some money to supplement the family income.

Whenever he was at home on a day off, he would hang a red gourd at the door to indicate that he was available to see patients.
