——————
If it weren’t for their many years of being together, Fan Hongshan would have been scared to her knees by Zhou Yilang’s question, knowing that his disposition was always so expressionless and indifferent.
So, for the past month, the two had not been intimate, and she had not taken any medication!
With this realization, Fan Hongshan had to go back to her room to call someone and take the opportunity to medicate herself.
Zhou Yilang had said to take it after her period arrived, but she had just left and had not taken any yet, unsure whether taking it afterwards would still be effective...
Upon finishing his washing up, Zhou Yilang saw Fan Hongshan with an expressionless face, picking up a pill and frowning slightly before swallowing it, followed by gulping down several mouthfuls of boiled water.
Her slight choking expression made it evident that she was not used to taking pills.
Zhou Yilang felt as though a sharp blade had been fiercely thrust into his chest.
This wasn’t the first time he had watched Fan Hongshan take medication. At the beginning of their marriage, he would always watch her take it every time.
But later on, as Fan Hongshan behaved well, he gradually stopped paying attention to whether or not she took her medication.
It wasn’t until last year, when he went back to his hometown and his grandmother asked why they had no children yet, that he recalled he had never seriously suggested his wife stop taking medication.
The main thing was, with two older children in the house, he didn’t feel the need to have his own biological children to consider them truly his own; things were fine as they were.
Moreover, he had not expected that after so many years, Fan Hongshan had consistently been medicating!
The first time, he only got a year’s supply of the medication... What was she taking now?
As these thoughts crossed Zhou Yilang’s mind, he strode forward and was just about to grasp his wife’s shoulder when his assistant’s voice rang in his ear:
"Sir, your wife just asked whether to buy more of that medication since it’s finished?"
It was in the second year of their marriage, when the medication ran out, and her wife asked him where to buy it, so he directly told her to ask his assistant.
And then, each year when the medication ran out, his wife would automatically ask the assistant... Didn’t he say "leave her be whether she takes it or not" during the fourth year?
Did this woman actually keep taking it until now?
Zhou Yilang knew that he had not paid much attention to his wife.
But, he thought that after he said that sentence, as a wife, she should have immediately stopped the medication, eager to conceive her husband’s child, right?!
"Heh~" Getting startled by the pull, Fan Hongshan was shocked, thankfully she had already swallowed the water, otherwise she would have choked badly!
Her heart still unsettled, Fan Hongshan’s eyes widened as she stared at Zhou Yilang with a flash of discontent, but upon realizing who was in front of her, she quickly concealed her outward emotions and revealed a faint smile:
"Sir, is there something you need?"
The words that had reached Zhou Yilang’s mouth, along with her facial expression, were also swallowed down, ending up as a mere light and shallow question:
"Why are you still taking the medication?"
"Sir, isn’t this what you requested?" Fan Hongshan didn’t give it too much thought, only her mouth’s upward curve grew steeper, reminding him:
"Sir, it’s almost 8:30 am, you’re about to be late for work."
Having taken the medication, Fan Hongshan felt reassured and cheerfully went to the children’s room to tidy up.
She had no idea that Zhou Yilang, standing still, looked distressed.
