His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 2]

Chapter 261: Not Because Of The Bond

Yao Ying, Yao Ling, and Xiao Fang knew that there was a turmoil outside because the guards were frantically searching for Uncle Qiu.

They were probably trying to find guidance regarding Aunt Yue's matter because they had been searching everywhere to no avail.

Yao Ying went out to distract them so that Uncle Qiu would be able to rest peacefully.

He was too lazy to do it himself, so he searched Lin Jian and made him to the hard work.

Although he knew that Yao Ling needed some spaces with her father, he still didn't want to leave her all alone.

Thus, he chose to wait in the garden in front of their courtyard.

Uncle Qiu was left under the care of Yao Ling and Xiao Fang.

They could hear that once in a while he was calling Su Wan's name over and over again while he was unconscious.

His body was sweating all over, but Yao Ling only dared to wipe his forehead.

"Does he remember something?" Yao Ling asked in a hopeful voice.

There was a trace of longing in her eyes which made Xiao Fang pitied her.

"Maybe the name triggered something inside him. It seems like godfather really loves your birth mother ah~!" Xiao Fang said softly.

She never thought that her godfather would be such a sentimental and romantic person.

"Yes, he is," Yao Ling admitted.

She would never tell her that there was a bond behind his infatuation as well.

She didn't want people to mistaken that their feelings were purely because of the bond.

Just like her relationship with Yao Ying, she didn't want people to question her whether she really loved Yao Ying or it was because of the bond.

The answer was simple... she had loved him even before they were bound by the bond, but people didn't know that.

It seemed like her father had never heard Su Wan's name before, or else, his memory would have been triggered a long time ago.

She understood that this might have something to do with her grandmother who always knew everything.

She must have known that this name would trigger the bond, thus, she never mentioned it once in front of her father.

Not too long after they stopped talking, Uncle Qiu started to move and give a sign that he would wake up soon.

By the time Uncle Qiu opene2d his eyes, a few shichen had passed.

He tried to sit up with difficulty. Yao Ling and Xiao Fang who saw it quickly helped him up.

"Godfather, are you okay?" Xiao Fang asked.

"I'm fine..." Uncle Qiu answered weakly.

"Do you remember anything?" Xiao Fang asked curiously.

Uncle Qiu shook his head. "I only remember bits and pieces of incomplete memories. However, each time I tried to remember something, something was blocking my mind... I can only give up otherwise the headache would become more unbearable," Uncle Qiu explained.

He noticed that he might have fainted, hence he didn't ask why he was suddenly laying down on the Luo Han bed.

He turned to Yao Ling and asked, "Your husband suddenly told me about this out of the blue. I'm sure that both of you know something else... Do both of you have a way to make me remember?"
