“Don't move. I'm going to pierce your acupuncture point."

Acupuncture?

Brian turned his head to look at her, but he was met by her cold face.

“Thank you, honey."

“Don't thank me just yet. This will be very painful. It's not too late to back out, I can get Edwin to take you to the hospital instead."

It was her fault that he got hurt, after all.

Brian chuckled.

"It's fine. If it hurts too much, I'll just squeeze your hand."

Rosalynn ignored him and pressed the needle into his skin.

Brian frowned as it broke through, his muscles tensing in reflex.

She sure hadn't lied, this hurt like hell.

“Did your grandfather teach you this?" es," Rosalynn replied nonchalantly.

“I should thank him, then," Brian quipped.

“He trained you pretty well. Thanks to him, I have such an excellent wife."

In the grand scheme of things, it seemed like it was fate that they got together.

Rosalynn's grandfather had given him a new lease on life, as well as a wife to spend that life with. Brian made up his mind to be filial to the old man in the future.

“Don't call me that. I won't be your wife in a month," Rosalynn grumbled.

Brian chose not to acknowledge it and simply changed the subject.

“Honey, have you ever thought about looking for your biological parents? If you want to, I can help you find them."

“That won't be necessary," Rosalynn said indifferently.

"Honey..."

“Don't say anything else. Just lie there quietly for twenty minutes."
