Meanwhile, Wei Heng returned to his room and made a call to his wife.
This trip back to his rural hometown had indeed been quite long.
Each day he delayed his return, Wei Heng couldn't help but overthink.
Could it be that his wife, back in the countryside, had rekindled an old flame with her ex?
If that were the case, it would be too tragic for him.
He had not abandoned his faithful wife despite his successful career.
Thus, he couldn't accept the idea of his wife one day leaving him for the sake of her desires.
When the call connected, he heard the sound of splashing water on the other end.
"Are you taking a bath, wife?"
"Why are you not resting at this late hour? Do you not care about your health?"
Hearing some complaints in his wife's voice, Wei Heng responded with a laugh.
"I met a 'Divine Doctor' this time. I took just one dose of his medicine, and I stopped coughing. You see, I've been talking to you for quite a while now and haven't coughed once."
