“Did you mistreat my sister?” Tang Shijun suddenly confronted him.

Li Yuhang suppressed his anxious emotions and acted innocent. “How could I possibly harm Qiqi? I love her more than anything. Third Sister, after all these years, don’t you know what kind of person I am?”

As he spoke, his tone became embarra.s.sed and aggrieved. “I understand that you all look down on me for being poor, but my background isn’t something I can control! Even if you dislike me and misunderstand me, as long as Qiqi understands and loves me, that’s enough for me.”

The Patriarch Tang and Madam Tang couldn’t help but be moved, had it not been for Tang Shijun’s confidential conversation with Gu Qingluan earlier, Tang Shijun might have been swayed by him.

However, now that she knew his true nature, Tang Shijun felt nothing but disgust.

This man was shameless!

He could pretend so well, no wonder they had been deceived by him all this time!

Thinking of their plan, Tang Shijun suppressed her anger and asked in a deep voice, “Then, what about the bruise on my sister’s waist?”

Li Yuhang inwardly sighed, it was indeed an injury on the waist.

However, it was just a bruise, which was easy to explain.

He helplessly replied, “Not long ago, Qiqi accidentally b.u.mped into a corner of the table. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Qingluo. Qingluo is the maid who came with your Tang family’s dowry, and she wouldn’t lie, would she?”

“It seems like a misunderstanding!” Patriarch Tang, with his stern and dignified face, managed to squeeze out a smile.

“Father-in-law is truly insightful. Your son-in-law would never bear to hurt Qiqi. It breaks my heart to even see her shed tears. I wish 1 could take her pain upon myself.”

Li Yuhang displayed deep affection and then turned to Gu Qingluan. “Miss Gu, once Qiqi’s poison is cured, will she be fine?”

Gu Qingluan nodded. “There shouldn’t be any major issues now. However, being poisoned does take a toll on the body, so she’ll need some time to recuperate.”

Li Yuhang discreetly clenched his fist and feigned delight. “That’s great news! When will she wake up?”

“If all goes well, in about four hours. At the latest, she should awaken tomorrow morning.”

“That’s truly wonderful! Miss Gu, you are a miraculous healer! I’m indebted to you, and there’s no way 1 can repay your kindness. Please wait for a moment, and I’ll prepare a generous gift for you.”

Li Yuhang expressed his grat.i.tude sincerely, then smiled somewhat sheepishly. “May 1 go in to see my wife now?”

“Of course.”

Gu Qingluan calmly pressed her hand to stop Tang Shijun from refusing.

Patriarch Tang and his wife also wanted to enter the room, so they all went inside together.

Inside the room, Tang Shiqi lay peacefully on the bed, her breathing steady, her eyebrows relaxed.

Anyone who saw her at this moment wouldn’t imagine that she had recently been on the verge of death.

Seeing their daughter looking even healthier than before, Patriarch Tang and his wife both showed relieved smiles.

Li Yuhang’s face was also filled with joy.

However, as Tang Shijun suspected him of causing harm to Tang Shiqi, she couldn’t help but notice that his smile seemed forced. Especially the corners of his mouth, which twitched slightly, as if he were forced to smile.

Tang Shijun coldly snorted in her heart.

Let’s see how long you can keep up the act!

At the right moment, Gu Qingluan spoke up. “Although Miss Tang’s condition has improved and there are no major issues, it’s best not to disturb her rest by staying in the room.”

“Someone needs to attend to her, right?” Li Yuhang gently stroked Tang Shijun’s lips, which had become dry. “Qiqi’s lips are chapped. I’ll get some water to moisten them for her.”

Saying this, he got up to fetch a water jug.

Tang Shijun couldn’t just let him, and she didn’t want to see him touch her older sister again. So, she took the initiative and grabbed the water jug, raising her chin as she looked at him. “Let me do it! A careless man like you could accidentally hurt my older sister. What would we do then?”

Tang’s mother nodded in agreement. “Junjun is right! Yuhang, let Junjun do it.”

Li Yuhang let out a soft sigh. “Alright, I’ll trouble Junjun.”

“I’m helping my older sister, how is that any trouble?” Tang Shijun snorted at him and walked to the bedside. From her sleeve, she took out a clean cloth, dipped it in water, and moistened Tang Shiqi’s lips.

Since Tang Shijun usually didn’t treat Li Yuhang kindly, he didn’t suspect her att.i.tude at that moment..
