The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1608 - 1695: Creeped Out

"I say, can you stop looking at me like that? It’s giving me the creeps..." Bai Xian rubbed his arms, then blinked and said, "Besides, aren’t we friends? Look, we’ve known each other for a while, and see, you came to visit me today, and even brought me food."

Shu Yu replied coolly, "This is called a last meal."

Bai Xian froze, nearly spitting out the roast chicken he was eating.

A last meal? That Liang guy, you’re so heartless, does your wife know? Really no problem!???

Shu Yu was leisurely, elegantly smoothing the wrinkles on her cuff, then looked at Bai Xian with a half-smile, "I carefully thought about it, you associate with me, but often inquire about Huiying. I didn’t notice before, but today it’s as if a light bulb went on. But in the end, it’s you who gave me the inspiration."

Shu Yu continued, "The last time I visited you, I gave you a lot of medicine. Why is your injury healing so slowly? If you say it’s to mislead others, so it wouldn’t heal too quickly and arouse suspicion, I might believe that. But Huiying was once abducted by Qinghe, how did you come to know about that?"

"Bai Xian."

"As your friend, I’ve never deceived you. Even if I came across something inconvenient to answer, I’d at most say nothing, never make up an excuse to fool you. With human relationships, it has always been thus. A single hand can’t clap, I exchange sincerity for true friendship, but what have I ultimately received in return?"

Bai Xian looked at Shu Yu for a moment, feeling a bit uncomfortable inside. But he knew this matter was his responsibility, Shu Yu was not wrong.

Shu Yu was inherently clever, maybe she didn’t react initially, but once she figured it out, it was unsurprising she would feel deceived. After all, she genuinely befriended Bai Xian, but if someone you’ve been genuine with takes you for a fool, who wouldn’t be angry?

Bai Xian wanted to explain, but... how to explain?

This was a tough problem.

Was he supposed to tell Shu Yu that it was because he liked her woman? No way, if he really said that, he bet, knowing the Liang family’s protectiveness, they’d probably beat him to death, and they’d never be friends again.

The root of the problem wasn’t whether he wanted to be with Dong Huiying, but rather he understood that for some people, this feeling in his heart was a big mistake.

Knowing it’s wrong but still doing it, what can be done? Isn’t it because, having fallen in love, unable to save oneself, one can only continue to sink into this mire?

Shu Yu saw Bai Xian looking troubled yet not defending himself, and felt a bit disappointed. The original intention of today’s visit was to check on Bai Xian, but after knowing his ’deception’, he suddenly felt uninterested, all enthusiasm gone.

"I’m leaving. Be careful of the people outside," leaving this piece of advice, Shu Yu got up to leave.

Bai Xian opened his mouth, wanting to call out to Shujun, but in the end, he could only clench his fists silently.

After a long while, he sighed powerlessly...

What a mess this is?

Love isn’t something you can just choose to fall into; sometimes it strikes without warning, even the person involved didn’t expect to fall for someone like that.

Bai Xian smiled bitterly, the complexity in his heart, words could hardly capture.
