Si Mobai pursed his dry lips and looked up at her pitifully. “Wife, can you pour me a glass of water first?”
Feng Tianlan looked at him and her voice was a little hoarse. Her lips were so dry that they had turned white. She did not want to ask further and got up to pour him some water. She wanted to feed him, but she thought that he would be in pain, so she could only hand the bowl to him.
Si Mobai raised his hand and directly held her hand. “My wife.”
His large hand was slightly warm and wrapped around her small hand. The water in the bowl started to ripple. She was stunned for a moment and then wanted to pull her hand back. “Let go.”
“Your husband is thirsty.” Si Mobai held her hand tightly and held her hand. He brought the bowl to his lips and drank the water elegantly. During this time, he did not let go of her hand.
When Feng Tianlan saw him like this, her eyes immediately turned red. The anger that she felt because of his concealment had disappeared. The only thing that remained was her heartache and guilt.
Si Mobai finished drinking the water and felt that his dry throat was a little more comfortable. When he looked up, he saw Feng Tianlan’s eyes were red and filled with tears. She pursed her red lips tightly and held back the tears that were falling. At this moment, he felt that he was really a sinner, he had actually made her cry.
“Don’t cry, my wife. I don’t feel any pain at all.” Si Mobai let go of her hand and raised his hand gently to wipe away the tears that were about to fall from the corner of her eyes. His voice was very gentle, “I’m not afraid of pain, but I’m afraid that I won’t be able to hold your hand anymore. I won’t be able to hold you anymore.”
Hearing his words, his rough fingertips gently caressed the corner of her eyes, causing her to be unable to hold back her tears.
Si Mobai reached out and pulled her into his embrace, his hands protecting her tenderly as he let her lean against his shoulder. His voice was gentle and filled with guilt, “Be good, Don’t cry anymore. Your husband really doesn’t feel pain, but if you cry, I will really feel pain.”
He wanted her to be happy, so how could he see her cry? He couldn’t bear to see her cry, he really couldn’t bear to let her go.
Feng Tianlan lay in his embrace as she listened to his words and the hug that she thought was very normal previously, but now she felt that it was a little too much to hope for. It made her cry uncontrollably. Just this one hug, just for a little while more.., just one more hug.
After this, even if they were holding hands, they had to think about it. Even if he did not say that it hurt, it did not mean that he was not in pain. She could not bear to see him in pain.
Si Mobai gently patted her back, his voice very gentle as he coaxed her. Her soft cries almost broke his heart. He knew that she would be like this. If he knew more, he did not know how she would cry.
His Lan’er, such a girl who did not cry easily, was crying because he was in pain. The tears she shed for him made him feel even more guilty.
He could not bear to see her cry, but she cried for him.
Feng Tianlan tried her best to suppress her emotions. After a while, she recovered and pushed him away. Her eyes were red and swollen. “Lapis Lazuli told me everything, but I still want to hear you say it again. I want you to say it personally, or else I will not forgive you easily.”
She still felt that Lapis Lazuli had not said everything. She wanted to know more from Si Mobai. If what the two of them said did not match, then it meant that Lapis Lazuli was lying to her.
“Okay, but Lan’er can not cry anymore. My heart aches so much.” Si Mobai raised his hand and gently wiped the tears on her face..
