She kindly wanted to pry his mouth open to forcibly feed him.Sheng Zexi: “Keep a bit of distance from me; I’m afraid your stupidity will rub off on me. Obviously, a small bamboo chip would do.”Gu Jia Ning: “This person’s tongue could cut paper, surely destined to die alone.”Who would have thought that more than a year later, upon learning she fell ill after jumping into the river, the already-gone Sheng Zexi sneaked in through the window with supplies?“Gu Jia Ning, are you tired of living or is there not enough water in your brain? You actually jumped into the river for a pretty boy!”While scolding her, he fed her painkillers and sweet wine boiled eggs that dispel cold and replenish blood. “If you still foolishly yearn for that pretty boy...”Gu Jia Ning: “Then I’ll marry you.”Sheng Zexi was stunned on the spot, then went ahead laughingly and married Gu Jia Ning swiftly, even bringing her to join the army!The military camp wives all said:Sheng Zexi’s wife is a little rascal, delicate and vain, unwilling to do heavy work, often complaining about fatigue.
