Chapter 248: Chapter 0248: Wife at a Disadvantage?_1
“Xiao Bai, she is my wife, and if you keep barking, I’ll throw you out,” Ye Xiong scolded.
“Talking to a little dog like this is pointless. It doesn’t understand shit,” Tang Ning said.
What Tang Ning didn’t expect was that after Xiao Baibai heard Ye Xiong scolding, it suddenly turned around and walked toward the door.
Could it actually understand?
By the time she realized what was happening, Xiao Baibai was already squatting at the door, using its claws to scratch at it as if it was saying, “Let me out.”
Unable to open the door, Xiao Baibai looked at Tang Ning with its small eyes, pleading for help.
Tang Ning walked over, opened the door, and Xiao Baibai dashed out, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
“Cousin-in-law, why do I feel like Xiao Baibai is really pitiful?” Tang Ning’s nose felt a bit sour.
Ye Xiong began to feel a headache coming on. Xinyi seemed not to like pets, and Xiao Baibai didn’t seem to like her either. How were they going to get along in the future?
Between people and dogs, people are definitely more important, so Ye Xiong went upstairs to find Yang Xinyi first.
The door of the room was locked tight. Ye Xiong called from outside, “Xinyi, open the door. I need to talk to you.”
He called for a long time, but Yang Xinyi didn’t come to open the door.
Ye Xiong had no other choice but to fetch a piece of wire and after fiddling for a while, finally opened the door.
Yang Xinyi was lying on the bed, staring blankly, with three bloody scratches on her hand.
Ye Xiong felt a pang of distress. Xiao Baibai really went too far; how could it be so fierce? Xinyi had only scolded it a bit, and it had such a big temper!
He walked over, took her hand, and prepared to clean the wound.
“Don’t bother with it,” Yang Xinyi pulled her hand away.
“Wife, if you don’t clean it, it will scar,” Ye Xiong urged.
“Let it scar. It’s not like anyone cares,” Yang Xinyi’s eyes reddened.
“Who says nobody cares? I care,” Ye Xiong said with a chuckle as he reached for her hand again.
Yang Xinyi was stubborn, and Ye Xiong had no choice but to say earnestly, “Wife, I’m reminding you, your hand was scratched by a dog. If it’s not treated properly, a scar is the least of your worries. If you contract rabies and start biting people, that’s no joking matter.”
“What?”
Yang Xinyi sat up in fright and hurriedly asked, “What should I do? Should I go get a vaccine?”
The one thing she hated most in her life was dogs. If she really got rabies, what would she do?
To be bitten by a dog is one thing; to get rabies just from scratches is unlikely.
Of course, Ye Xiong wouldn’t say this out loud, he seriously added, “Let me take a look at your hand.”
This time, Yang Xinyi obediently extended her hand.
Despite being angry, she didn’t want to gamble with her own life.
Looking at the three blood marks on her pale hand, white as an onion, Ye Xiong’s heart ached.
Fortunately, the wounds were shallow and should not leave scars.
“Actually, there was no need for you to get so angry. Xiao Baibai is just a little dog; it doesn’t understand anything. Why be so hard on it? If you don’t like it, I can directly give it away or make arrangements for it to live outside the villa,” Ye Xiong said while disinfecting the wounds.
“Although I don’t like dogs, I’m not annoyed with it,” Yang Xinyi snorted.
“If not with it, then are you annoyed with me?”
He had just returned from Miaojiang and hadn’t provoked anyone, so why was she angry?
“You know very well what you did,” Yang Xinyi snorted.
“Wife, I really don’t know. Can you remind me?”
Seeing her still sulking, Ye Xiong put on a sad face and murmured, “This time in Miaojiang, I went through hell and high water, perilous and life-threatening situations, barely surviving. The moment the task was over, my first thought was of you—I was worried whether the poison on you had been cured, whether you had lost weight, whether you missed me… Chen Xiao and the others wanted to stay in the provincial city for a day and come back tomorrow, but you were always on my mind, so I rushed back overnight. I haven’t even had dinner yet!”
As Ye Xiong spoke, his stomach growled right on cue.
“There are so many beauties in the provincial city. Staying one more night would have been nice; you could have had a grand time,” Yang Xinyi said.
“What kind of man do you think I am, to go to such places? I can’t wait to come home and cherish my wife!” Ye Xiong laughed.
With a few words from him, Yang Xinyi finally wasn’t so angry anymore.
Although her anger had subsided, Ye Xiong still had an uneasy feeling in his heart, not knowing why she had gotten angry in the first place.
He wouldn’t feel comfortable until he got this issue out in the open!
After neutralizing the poison on his hand, Ye Xiong went to pull at her clothes, intending to look at her stomach.
Yang Xinyi wanted to refuse, but Ye Xiong said, “Don’t move, let me see if the injury has healed.”
Seeing his seriousness, Yang Xinyi didn’t refuse.
Ye Xiong lifted her nightgown to carefully inspect her belly button. Although the Ice Gu Poison had been cured, there was still some coldness to the touch, indicating it hadn’t fully recovered.
“That old guy didn’t touch your stomach, did he?” Ye Xiong was a bit jealous.
The thought of his wife’s stomach having been touched by Lingnan’s Divine Doctor, that old coot, made him uncomfortable.
What man doesn’t wish for his wife to be pure as ice and jade, preferably never having even held hands with another man in her lifetime?
He wondered if the old man took the opportunity to cop a feel while treating her.
“What old man?” Yang Xinyi asked, puzzled.
“The old fellow who treated your illness!” Ye Xiong said, disgruntled.
Pfft!
Yang Xinyi finally understood and seeing her big man actually being so jealous made her laugh uncontrollably.
“If someone’s treating my illness, how can they do it without checking the stomach?” Yang Xinyi said.
Although that was the truth, it still made Ye Xiong uncomfortable.
“Actually, it’s nothing, just took off all my tops, that’s all,” Yang Xinyi said.
“What?”
Ye Xiong jumped up, cursing, “You stripped to the waist for him to see?”
“But I still had my bra on, didn’t I?”
“You…how can you be so foolish? It’s the stomach that’s being treated, not there. How could you undress?” Ye Xiong was almost mad with anger.
Loss, this was a huge loss.
Lingnan’s Divine Doctor, I’ll have to chop you tomorrow.
Chen Xiao, what kind of people do you know.
“I didn’t want to strip my upper body at first, but Lingnan’s Divine Doctor said, although the poison is in the stomach, the Gate of Destiny is at the chest. If the poison reaches the heart vessels, it would be incurable, so he had to check the chest,” Yang Xinyi explained.
This is a rogue doctor’s trick for sure. Otherwise, why would he ask you to undress?
Ye Xiong was fuming in circles and pulled out his phone, intending to call Chen Xiao and chew him out, asking what kind of quack doctor he had found, whether professional ethics had been eaten by dogs.
Just as he took out his phone, he couldn’t make the call.
If he asked Chen Xiao, wouldn’t his wife’s misfortune become known to him? Where would he put his face then?
No, he couldn’t make that call.
Just then, Yang Xinyi suddenly started laughing.
Her laughter was so triumphant, so radiant.
“So your jealousy is this strong. I’ve discovered it for the first time,” Yang Xinyi said proudly.
“I’m so worried about you, and you still deceive me,” Ye Xiong realized he had been duped seeing her laugh.
“I didn’t lie to you.”
“Still saying you didn’t lie, look at that smile, even Hong doesn’t smile such a cunning smile,” Ye Xiong scolded.
“It’s true, I didn’t lie to you. You just thought wrong. That person is not some sleazy old traditional doctor, but a woman, a young and beautiful female Divine Doctor. You wouldn’t be jealous of a woman too, would you!” Yang Xinyi laughed.
Ye Xiong’s heart finally relaxed.
That being said, his fit of jealousy was indeed rather big just now.
