Chapter 1072 - Chapter 1072 1072 Missed a Heartbeat

Chapter 1072: 1072 Missed a Heartbeat Chapter 1072: 1072 Missed a Heartbeat Qinghe watched as his third brother drew well water, then entered the room to gather his dirty clothes and took them to the river bank to wash.

It had been more than ten days since he had left the house, and these days it wasn’t just the meals that third brother brought into his room, but also the toilet bucket that third brother helped him empty.

Although his wife lived in the same yard, all of his daily needs were taken care of by third brother.

Thinking of third brother’s kindness, a complex emotion flickered through his clear eyes.

Reason told him that he shouldn’t compete with third brother for his wife.

But his entire heart, was filled with thoughts of his wife.

He could live, breathe, all because of relishing the past moments spent with his wife.

His slender hand gripped the armrest of his wheelchair tightly, his heart ached unbearably.

Today the sky was clear, and the sunlight was bright.

Su Qingyue moved a lounger out into the yard to bask in the sun.

The lounger was something she asked the third brother to buy for her from town during his spare time.

In fact, both of them had been quite idle these days, but she mentioned ‘spare time’ because they, as newlyweds, were almost inseparably close every day.

Xiao Qinghe, seeing his wife sleeping on the lounger in the yard, wheeled himself out of the room in his wheelchair.

The wooden wheelchair rolled across the ground, making a not-so-quiet noise.

Su Qingyue had her face covered with a “Three-Character Classic” book, not because she wanted to study it again, but simply used it as a sunshade by opening it in the middle.

She lay there, dozing off with her eyes closed.

Xiao Qinghe’s wheelchair stopped next to her, gazing at the woman sleeping on the lounger, dressed in a lake green embroidered dress.

Even while lying down, her figure was extremely delicate, long black hair draping down to her waist, emphasizing her willowy thin waist even more.

He stared at her face, casually covered with a book.

Ever since he lifted the red veil on their wedding day and saw her stunning jade-like beauty, her loveliness had been deeply etched into his mind, and he thought of her all the time.

Every day, he would unconsciously search for her around the room.

He wanted to talk to her, but there was always a trembling unease in his heart.

He moved his lips, wanting to call her his wifeaEUR|

Bitterness surfaced before his eyes, he didn’t dare.

It had been more than ten days, and she hadn’t spoken a word to him.

She probablyaEUR| was very angry with him.

Xiao Yuchuan was at the river bank washing clothes; only Qinghe and Su Qingyue were in the yard.

She was resting with her eyes closed.

Qinghe sat in his wheelchair beside her, silent, saying nothing.

Next to the lounger, on the tea table, only a third of the water was left in the cup.

He quietly picked up the water pot from the table and filled her cup.

Her silence was fine with him; he was afraid of disturbing her.

To sit quietly by her side, he truly wished things could remain this way forever.

Although the sunlight was warm on her body, given the autumn chill, lying down like this, she could easily catch a cold.

He thought about going inside to fetch a thin quilt or a piece of clothing to cover her with, but he feared the noise of the chair wheels rolling over the floor might wake her.

Even with a book covering her face, Su Qingyue could feel Xiao Qinghe’s gaze fixated on her face without wavering.

His gaze was warm and gentle but held a melancholic pain.

Deep and profound, it seemed like a blend of reproach and care, foolishly devotedaEUR|

Being stared at so intently made her suddenly unable to sleep.

She removed the book from her face, her eyebrows furrowed, “Fourth brother, don’t stare at me like that.”

He was caught off guard when she suddenly glared at him with her beautiful eyes, his calm heart missed a beat, “WifeaEUR| my wifeaEUR|”

She was genuinely irritated, “Fourth brother, ‘wife’ is not for you to call!”
