Seeing him steer the conversation toward the main topic, Liu Shimei relaxed and replied, “The verdict hasn’t been announced yet, but it should be soon.”
She continued feeding him and said, “Du Gong attempted to spread leprosy and hired assassins to kill me. Although he failed to kill me, he accidentally injured you. I guess he’s likely to be sentenced to death. The reputation of Zhenyaotang has also plummeted. In the future, they might target Fusheng Pavilion. Our Fusheng Pavilion might have to directly compete with the largest private medical hall!”
“Ah?” Huangfu Lingyao wanted to discuss this matter with her, fearing she might not be wary of the Zheng Medical Hall, but he couldn’t directly state the possibility. He could only indirectly hint at it, guiding her thoughts in that direction.
Since she had already thought of it, he cooperated by expressing his surprise, “You must be careful from now on, Wife!”
“Okay.” Liu Shimei nodded, saying, “I will be careful. Now, Changge is there in the open, and Zhong Lang is there in the shadows…”

Returning to the story, if it weren’t for Zhong Lang’s slip-up, none of these crises would have occurred.
Liu Shimei sighed and said, “Everyone has their own private matters. A person can never rely entirely on others. At any time, relying on oneself is the most reliable. Being strong on your own is truly being strong.”
Being strong on your own is truly being strong. Huangfu Lingyao deeply agreed with this statement, but—
He frowned and said, “Wife, haven’t you ever thought of relying on me? Maybe I’m also very capable. Look at this time, with my experience in fighting, didn’t I protect you?”
He instinctively didn’t like Liu Shimei’s way of thinking. He didn’t understand why she was like this.
Could it be because ever since they got together, she found her biological father unreliable, deeply hurting her heart, making it difficult for her to trust anyone completely?
Or—
Was it because she had a “foolish” fiance like him that she felt the need to shoulder everything as a woman?
Liu Shimei didn’t grasp the deep meaning behind his words. She thought her silly fiance wanted her to ‘trust him’ and ‘rely on him’, believing he was just asserting his usefulness.

Therefore, encouraging and educating them often yield good results.
She mainly encouraged her silly son this way, smiling and saying, “Yes, Lingyao, you’re very capable! This time, thanks to you, otherwise, with my limited evasion skills, I could dodge one attack but not two, it would have been disastrous!”
This incident also made her realize that having poison is useless against someone skilled in martial arts!
Huangfu Lingyao,”…”
My wife always treatslike she’s placating a child. What should I do?
But then, who can I blfor this?
I reap what I sow!
After the assassination attempt, Huangfu Lingyao realized that Liu Shimei seemed to have forgotten something important.. “Wife, is the information we obtained from the Pavilion of Six Paths and Eight Directions still of no use?”
