The Divine Physician's Overbearing Wife

Chapter 2020: The Wolf King 15

Murong Qing’s gaze was blank; he hesitantly looked at Nan Chiyou, frowning.

‘All these years, I used to see men with many concubines. I’ve never met someone like what Maiden Xia Xia said...’

“My grandmother was kidnapped and kept for twenty years, and my grandfather thought she had passed away.” Nan Chiyou lifted her head to look at Murong Qing. “But he has never forgotten my grandmother and did not take any concubine.”

‘Oh, that noble consort does not count because Grandfather and she did not live like a husband and wife.

‘Grandfather only loved Grandmother in his life.

‘This is the kind of love that women in the world should be looking for.’

To Murong Qing, it was customary for a man to have concubines.

However, she did not like that practice at all.

Murong Qing was slightly stunned. He pursed his lips and did not speak; it seemed that he was still thinking about Nan Chiyou’s words.

Nan Chiyou did not say more and turned around. “I will leave after you’ve recovered.”

Murong Qing froze. “You’re not staying for longer?”

“No. Mother said, we can’t be friends if we have different views in life.”

This sentence struck Murong Qing’s heart like a burst of cold wind, turning his heart half cold.

He looked at Nan Chiyou’s departing figure, and at that moment, there was a feeling of guilt, as if his words earlier had hurt her...

Just as Murong Qing wanted to chase after her, a huge figure blocked his way.

The wolf king’s gaze was cold as it stared at Murong Qing with eyes filled with disdain, and his voice was cold.

“In the wolf tribe, we only have one wife in a lifetime. We’ll be together forever.”

Murong Qing lifted his pale face; his gaze fixed upon Nan Chiyou’s figure.

With the disappearance of her figure, his heart gradually became empty.

It was only at this moment, Murong Qing finally found himself unable to be separated from her...

Since the first encounter in the savage land, that charming and pitiful face had been deeply engraved in his heart, never to be forgotten.

“If... Maiden Xia Xia is willing to be my consort, then I am willing to devote my life to protect her.”

The wolf king snickered. “You are not worthy.”

‘I’ve waited for her for so many years, and it was so hard to come to her.

‘Now a mere human wants to steal my girl?

‘Ridiculous!’

Murong Qing turned to the wolf king and stared at it for a moment before suddenly laughing out loud. “Why am I not worthy? At least I’m a human, not a spirit beast.”

Boom!

Anger surged up to the wolf king’s heart, and that surge of power was like a storm, slamming Murong Qing’s body backward.

Murong Qing was already weak, and with this attack, his handsome face became even paler as he looked up at the wolf king.

The wolf king placed its paws on Murong Qing’s chest, its face expressionless. “If you can’t protect her for life, if you can’t guard her alone, you are not qualified to stand by her side.

“Moreover... You’re weak.”

The wolf king’s eyes were cold, looking down at the man on the ground.

That look, arrogant and proud, made Murong Qing a little annoyed.

“Wolfie...”

Suddenly, a voice called out from behind it, drawing the wolf king’s attention. “What are you still doing over there? We’re going back to our room to rest.”

Only then did the wolf king keep its claws and turn to look at the young girl not far away.

“My name is Nan Ming. You gave me the name, and you’ve forgotten it again?”
