Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers Chapter 468

Chapter 468: Chapter 469: My Yueyue is the Most Mighty Chapter 468: Chapter 469: My Yueyue is the Most Mighty “Repaying a debt?” Qi Yue became even more puzzled.

Zhao Xiyan's profound eyes darkened with an indescribable expression of either hatred or pity.

“Before I turned eighteen, he owed me a favor, after I turned eighteen, he became my enemy. I have a clear sense of gratitude and grudges, so I will just tolerate him for a while.”

The ninth prince turned out to be no other than Zhou Fengye, who had grown up with Zhao Xiyan, close as brothers.

Both were of similar age, and as a child, Zhao Xiyan, along with the other princes, was often bullied by the older ones due to his outstanding abilities.

Though Zhao Xiyan was also the son of a duke, those people were after all princes, and in the face of rough etiquette, the young Zhao Xiyan inevitably suffered.

But there was one person who never bullied him, who always stood in front of him to protect him.

That person was the ninth prince, Zhou Fengye.

The two young boys thus established a deep friendship.

As they grew up, they practiced martial arts, got into mischief together, and did many things that earned the adults' scolding.

At that time, the ninth prince's birth mother was deeply favored, which naturally made the ninth prince esteemed.

As the ninth prince's good friend, his brother, he was naturally different from the other noble youths.

Once, when Zhao Xiyan's grandfather fell gravely ill and sought medical attention in the middle of the night, the ninth prince did not hesitate to use his waist token to smash the palace gate and brought the chief Imperial Physician, Pan Chunle, to the Zhao Family.

Although Zhao Xiyan's grandfather couldn't be saved in the end, this kindness was deeply engraved in Zhao Xiyan's heart.

Back then, even Zhao Xiyan himself believed that if one day the ninth prince wished to rise to the throne, he would definitely help him fulfill his wish.

However, human hearts are unpredictable, and the world is ever-changing.

In the year he turned eighteen, Zhao Xiyan led his troops to war and became famous overnight, his glory shining throughout the land.

But just three days later, he fell from his horse during what seemed to be a routine hunting trip.

A brilliant general's star thus fell from the sky.

Despite still being a prodigy, still living in people's mouths, he would never stand up again.

The world had gained a paralytic!

Afterward, the Zhao Family exerted all their efforts to find the person behind Zhao Xiyan's misfortune, but they never reached any conclusion.

And the ninth prince, Zhou Fengye, who had always been as close as a brother and shielded Zhao Xiyan in all matters, was suddenly bestowed with the fief of Yao City and went to establish his domain.

At that moment, Zhao Xiyan felt that something was not right.

But no matter what, he never imagined that all of this was intricately linked to Zhou Fengye!

Until that year!

“Yueyue, do you still remember the year when we first came to Northern Ridge, one day you returned and gave me a record book?”

Qi Yue narrowed her eyes, swiftly retrieving this memory.

“I remember, at that time Qi Fengzhang was bitten to death by a snake, and I found a record book in his belongings that detailed his collusion with Nanyue and the trafficking of military intelligence, including an entry related to a horse and the timing coincided with your fall, I even pointed it out to you!”

“Yes,” Zhao Xiyan pursed his lips, looking at Qi Yue with eyes brimming with profound affection.

“Yueyue, you are my lucky star, with you, I was able to stand again, and even my longstanding, unresolved hatred found a place to settle… You, ah, are the greatest treasure bestowed upon me by the heavens…”

The man was androgynous in appearance, with a voice as enchanting as a bubbling spring.

And Qi Yue, a slave to eyes and ears, was assaulted by the combination of beauty and entrancing voice–her heart racing, her mind seemingly adrift in a trance.

In a daze, she blankly stared at Zhao Xiyan, almost drooling.

“So, what are you saying, when did I help you take revenge?”

“Heh~”
Zhao Xiyan chuckled, holding her fair little face and kissing it fervently.

“My Yueyue is really adorable…”

Qi Yue's face grew even redder, involuntarily turning her head away to avoid the man's intense gaze.

“And you're talking about kissing someone cute while leaving a face full of saliva!”

“Let your husband wipe it off for you.”

Zhao Xiyan laughed continuously, his lips pecking nonstop on her face, applying the saliva like toner until it was evenly spread.

Feeling shy, Qi Yue covered his lips with both hands.

“Stop wiping, just tell me what happened next!”

“…Mmmph…”

His mouth covered, Zhao Xiyan's eyes twinkled with laughter, his tongue teasing the center of her palm.

Qi Yue then realized belatedly and quickly withdrew her hand.

“…Stop kissing, just tell me what happened.”

Suddenly, Zhao Xiyan seized the moment she was off guard and quickly leaned in to peck her on the lips.

“You…” Qi Yue's face was unbearably hot.

She was also annoyed with herself–they had been together for so long.

Why couldn't she ever toughen up in front of Zhao Xiyan!

“Alright, let's get to the matter. Otherwise, your cute looks might tempt me into losing control again…”

Zhao Xiyan said with a content smile, ruffling her hair with his hand.

Qi Yue just let him be.

After all, she quite enjoyed his various little gestures which made her feel extremely happy.

“After that, I followed the clues from those records and thoroughly investigated, eventually leading to the Ninth Prince…”

At this point, Zhao Xiyan's voice grew heavy.

Qi Yue had also deeply experienced the reluctance to revisit the past.

She spontaneously hugged the man's lean waist, listening to the deep sighs and once fractured pain from the depths of his chest.

“It's all in the past, you have me now. Nobody is going to hurt you.”

“Thank you, Yueyue.”

“Husband, do you know why he did it?”

“I'm not sure of the specifics… I only know that the horse was a tribute from the Imperial Stud Farm that he managed to get hold of.” Zhao Xiyan's voice deepened, “I suspect it has something to do with those affairs in the palace…”

After a moment of thought, Qi Yue also found it strange.

“Logically, with your renown back then, it would be only beneficial and not harmful for Zhou Fengye. If he wanted to be Emperor, he should have protected you instead of harming you. Why would he do the opposite?”

Zhao Xiyan furrowed his brows.

“That's what I find odd too. Further investigation revealed that he seemed to have had some dealings with Lin Yuan as well… The exact details might only be known between the two of them.”

Qi Yue raised her hand, gently smoothing the area between Zhao Xiyan's eyebrows.

“Husband, don't worry. Once I've dealt with the things at hand, I'll take care of that old thief Lin Yuan for you, rescue sister Shuangyue and her husband's family, and then make Zhou Fengye kneel and admit his guilt to you!”

Zhao Xiyan was amused by her, his handsome eyes lifting in delight, looking very attractive.

“My Yueyue is the most valiant. Your husband can hardly wait.”

“Of course.” Qi Yue chuckled with a 'heh' sound.

“Last time I only emptied Lin the old thief's study and got so many treasures. Wait till I finish him off–I want to raze his Prime Minister Residence to the ground! And Zhou Fengye's Yao City too, I heard that place is filthy rich…”

She spoke with glee, only to be interrupted by Zhao Xiyan's teasing laughter.

Looking up, the man was watching her with mirth, his face full of banter.

“My Yueyue…”
