The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 106 Who are you?
As dusk settled, a profound stillness descended upon the surroundings.

The room was dimly lit, and Yu Tingwan took a bath through a screen.

His furrowed brows have never relaxed.

Unlike usual, she was unusually quiet tonight.

The silence made Wei Zhao feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Wei Zhao leaned against the bed with his eyelids lowered, slowly drinking his medicine.

very bitter.

His mind was elsewhere.

"But the journey to the post station wasn't going smoothly?"

There was no response; all that could be heard was the enchanting sound of water, nothing else.

Wei Zhao frowned, wanting to ask more questions.

Yu Tingwan dried herself off, changed into clean clothes, walked around the screen, and without looking at Wei Zhao, went to the table to pour herself a glass of warm water, which she drank intermittently.

The atmosphere inside the room unconsciously became strange and stagnant.

She drank her fill of water before heading back to her bed.

"Let me see the amulet."

The girl reached out her hand to him.

She was fair-skinned and beautiful, but the dim lighting made the beauty mark at the corner of her eye shine brightly and dazzlingly.

Her hair was still dripping wet, and she hadn't even had time to dry it.

Her chest was quickly soaked, and the outline of her undergarment was faintly visible.

It is an alluring and charming quality that one is unaware of.

With enough charcoal burning inside, it didn't feel cold.

Wei Zhao's eyes darkened.

"Wrap your hair dry."

To avoid future headaches.

She sat down on the edge of the bed, leaned closer, and reached into Wei Zhao's collar. With a slight flick of her fingertips, she quickly pulled out the red string with the amulet attached.

Wei Zhao didn't stop him, looking at him expressionlessly: "Robbers?"

Yu Tingwan did not reply.

She couldn't hide her feelings; the struggle on her face turned into a serious expression.

"Does my husband know the heir of the Marquis of Loyalty and Valor?"

She asked very directly, without any attempt at tact.

Wei Zhao:? ? ?
He frowned.

Yu Tingwan acted strangely when she came back, and she even ignored him.

Is she thinking of Xiao Huaiyan?

Yes, Xiao Huaiyan is a well-known playboy with a sweet tongue, making him especially popular with girls in the capital.

Very well, Xiao Huaiyan is going to pry open the coffin, and he's going to pry open... his corner of the wall.

Yu Tingwan: "Young Master Xiao is a good person."

Wei Zhao said calmly, "I don't think so."

Yu Tingwan said to herself, "I went to him and had something to ask him."

"what's up?"

“My husband is currently in poor health and should not be exposed to the wind. I thought it would be good if I could offer incense at General Wei’s coffin on his behalf.”

She thought Xiao Huaiyan would probably agree.

After all, she specifically mentioned Wei Shen's identity and name.

That's strange.

In his previous life, Xiao Huaiyan cared so much about Wei Shen, but when he heard Wei Shen's name just now, he showed no emotion or surprise whatsoever.

It's like...

It's as if Xiao Huaiyan didn't know Wei Shen.

Yu Tingwan asked again, "Does my husband know Prince Xiao?"

It was late at night, and her voice was soft and gentle.

"A lot has happened recently, which really confuses me."

"The matter of the blacksmith shop, their change of attitude, and cheap concealed weapons."

"About the new home."

“Wang Yazi’s attitude was also very unusual when we bought the house.”

"Logically speaking, there should be many people willing to buy this house. As the middleman, he might not cheat outsiders as others have said. However, he makes a living through business, so the more expensive the house is, the more profitable it is for him."

"As long as it's not too excessive and both the buyer and seller are satisfied, the reputation will naturally improve."

"But he was eager to make a move."

She paused, then added.

To be precise, they were eager to make a move against me.

Yu Tingwan: "Looking back, it didn't seem like anything, but now that I think about it, it's really strange."

She looked at Wei Zhao: "I passed by the clinic on my way back from buying groceries at the Dong family's house today."

The girl remembered that Wei Zhao had previously prescribed her some ointment for frostbite, so she decided to buy those herbs and try making it herself.

"My husband will probably be puzzled when he hears this, since they say there is no doctor with the surname Ge over there."

"Isn't this ridiculous?"

One by one, they piled up...

Wei Shen said from the beginning that he was not Wei Shen. Nobody believed him.

Everyone thought he had damaged his brain.

But what if what he said is true?

Yu Ting stared at him intently, her emotions running high.

"who are you!"

While questioning her, Yu Tingwan's fingertips fumbled for the peace charm.

Back then, Hui Niang mistook him for Wei Shen because of this item.

Fearing it would be lost or damaged, the amulet was sewn into a small pocket and sealed tightly.

The pockets are finely stitched, but there's nothing particularly outstanding about them.

But everyone has a different needlework style, so Hui Niang would never mistake Hui Niang's embroidery.

She was lost in thought, her fingertips touching the uneven surface.

It was a very small movement, not noticeable.

This is……

A small opening.

Yu Tingwan was upset and tried to fiddle with it, even picking at it with her fingertips.

The opening got bigger, and something fell out.

She caught it with lightning speed.

What is it if it's not a rolled-up amulet?

Honestly, the designs of amulets are quite common. The ones you get at temples are all the same.

But the one in my hand is different.

Yu Tingwan unfolded the talisman and looked at it; there was a line of small characters attached to the bottom.

—My only wish is for my son to be safe and well.

Hui Niang did indeed say that she had a young monk at the temple write a string of characters under the amulet.

Yu Tingwan fell silent.

She was at a loss.

In contrast, Wei Zhao showed no sign of panic.

Their identities will be revealed sooner or later.

He always acted prudently; if he truly intended to conceal something, how could he let Yu Tingwan see the loopholes and mistakes?

Unless he wants to, Yu Tingwan will remain in the dark for the rest of her life.

Wei Zhao's Adam's apple bobbed: "I admit it."

"...I am not him."

Yu Tingwan blinked and waved the peace charm at him.

"But you seem to be."

All the reasonable guesses from before have been overturned.

Yu Tingwan's thoughts were in disarray.
Even at this critical juncture, she still couldn't quite believe it.

Could it be... that the blacksmith shop and the new house are all because she's lucky, and that fate is letting her have an advantage?

How do you explain this to Doctor Ge and Xiao Huaiyan?

Yu Tingwan looked at Wei Zhao: "This peace charm, you didn't steal it."

That's not a pleasant thing to hear.

Wei Zhao stared at the opening, a mix of emotions flashing in his eyes. Yu Tingwan only understood one of them: a condemnation of her.

His brow twitched three times: "Mine."

Seeing that his expression didn't seem fake, Yu Tingwan's mind went blank.

Wei Zhao's eyes were deep as he looked at the girl.

"My real name is Wei Zhao."

Yu Tingwan: ?
Why are you still dreaming of becoming a general?

That's how people are.

When doubt reaches a certain point, hearing a truth can actually make one disbelieve it.

Wei Shen died young, so Hui Niang and Wei Shouzhong shouldn't have been able to mistake their own child.

As for those things that she couldn't understand...

She thought, her memories of her past life were fragmented, and she couldn't understand them, let alone Wei Shen!
Wei Shen doesn't seem as smart as her.

Besides, so what if he isn't Wei Shen?

He was the one who married her.

He's the one I sleep with at night.

When she married into the Wei family, she didn't seek a peaceful life.

The Wei family cannot be left without descendants.

Even if the man's health is poor, at least she is not a widow.

Who he is doesn't matter that much anymore.

Yu Tingwan thought
Sometimes it's not necessary to get to the bottom of things; sometimes, it's better to be a little oblivious.

Wei Zhao took the amulet back from the girl's hand.

He looked down.

It's a bit wrinkled and old.

It's obvious that it's been preserved for many years.
