No, that wasn't right.
She was not his wife.
Looking at Helian Zhen's excited expression, Mu Wan only smiled gently. "I'm not his wife."
When Helian Zhen heard this, he could not help but be stunned. His brows furrowed slightly, and he was obviously very puzzled.
She wasn't his wife? How was that possible? Over the phone, Ting had clearly asked Helian Zhen to come and check on his lovely wife.
When he looked up again, he saw Mu Wan slowly lowering her head. Her expression was not very good.
What was going on between Mu Wan and Ting? One admitted their marriage personally while the other denied it.
Meanwhile, Mu Wan knew very well that although she and Gu Tingyuan had registered their marriage, their relationship had not been announced to anyone. Other than Old Master Gu and the people from the manor, no one knew that Gu Tingyuan had gotten married.
He had also explicitly said that she was not allowed to tell anyone that she was his wife.
Yes, marrying him was just to prolong his mother's life and… To atone for the accident three years ago.
However, she did not marry him for nothing. At least, she had the chance to get close to Gu Han and avenge her brother.
Helian Zhen took a deep look at Mu Wan. Helian Zhen was also very clear that he could not interfere with the relationship between her and Gu Tingyuan. They could only depend on their own luck.
"Lie down."
After changing the dressing, Helian Zhen put on another drip for her.
"This is an anti-inflammatory medicine. I'll give you another bottle later. I'll get the servants to change the dressing for you."
Mu Wan leaned against the headboard and said sincerely, "Thank you."
Helian Zhen flashed a relaxed smile. "There's no need to thank me. This is my responsibility."
"I'll come over tomorrow to change your dressing. I'll leave now. We'll have a good chat after you've recovered."
Mu Wan nodded. "Okay."
After packing up, Helian Zhen turned to leave.
Just as he walked out of the room, he turned right and bumped into a figure. He could not help but be stunned. "Damn, do you want to scare me to death!"
He glanced at Gu Tingyuan, who was standing there unknowingly, and hurriedly patted his chest to comfort his soul that almost jumped out of his body!
Gu Tingyuan was expressionless. He glanced at him coldly before turning to leave.
Helian Zhen froze for a moment.
Wasn't this fellow here to see Mu Wan? Why did he turn around before entering?
What a brat. Could he have been eavesdropping on his conversation with Mu Wan?
Helian Zhen quickly chased after him as he watched him walk down the stairs.
As he followed behind Gu Tingyuan, he deliberately cleared his throat. "Well, Mu Wan's fever hasn't subsided and her wound is infected. I suggest that we send her to the hospital immediately…"
Dong!
Before he could finish speaking, he bumped into Gu Tingyuan, who had stopped in his tracks. He quickly rubbed his nose in pain.
Gu Tingyuan's face darkened as he turned around. Panic flashed past his narrow and long eyes.
"Her fever hasn't subsided?"
Helian Zhen nodded seriously. "Yes."
Gu Tingyuan frowned.
Earlier in the morning, the maid had clearly said that her fever had subsided. Could it be that she had relapsed?
Seeing his tense expression, Helian Zhen suddenly burst out laughing!
"Pfft—"
Gu Tingyuan came back to his senses and realized that Helian Zhen had done it on purpose. He immediately kicked him down the stairs mercilessly!
"Damn!"
Seeing that he was about to roll down the stairs, Helian Zhen immediately swore and grabbed the handrail of the stairs with quick reflexes. Only then was he spared.
"If you want to take advantage of me, just say so. Why do you always launch a sneak attack?"
Gu Tingyuan's expression was extremely cold. He hated it when people teased him, especially when it was Helian Zhen!
