Chapter 1060: Chapter 1060

Department of External Injuries:

Since Qin Mu mentioned he isn’t planning for pregnancy anytime soon, the doctor breathed a small sigh of relief.

"That’s good then... Otherwise, if she were pregnant and there was an error in medication, it wouldn’t be good for the baby. Such cases can affect couples who are planning for pregnancy quite seriously."

The effects of medication on the fetus can increase the likelihood of deformities.

Mu Wan couldn’t fully comprehend what the doctor was saying and relied on the assistant’s translation to get a general understanding.

Qin Mu frowned slightly, his dark eyes fixed on Mu Wan’s right hand, which continued to seep fresh blood. His thin lips pressed tightly together.

"Administer the medication and bandage her hand immediately—but carefully. Be professional about it and avoid touching the nerves in the palm. If this drags on, her future work—she’s an artist—could be seriously impacted in terms of hand mobility."

"Yes, Mr. Qin... Understood. I’ll handle it right away..."

After Qin Mu finished speaking, he noticed the assistant was about to translate his words for Mu Wan. His long, narrow black eyes narrowed slightly.

"Hmm... There’s no need to translate that sentence."

Was Mr. Qin being too willful?

Clearly... he had just expressed concern for his wife, but now, he wasn’t allowing the translation.

This... A man’s mind, as unpredictable as needles at the bottom of the ocean.

In spite of silently lamenting in her heart, the translator dared not contradict Qin Mu’s orders. Carefully deferential, she replied, "Understood, Mr. Qin..."

What exactly did Qin Mu just say to the doctor in French?

Why... wasn’t this sentence translated?

Especially since the assistant’s expression subtly shifted, tinged with regret. This stirred an even deeper sense of curiosity within Mu Wan. Their behavior seemed shrouded in such mystery.

Mu Wan’s clear eyes froze momentarily, her pale complexion reflexively turned toward Qin Mu in confusion. Qin Mu narrowed his sharp eyes at her, lips tightening further.

"Hmm... I just asked casually how long after you’ve been treated and medicated we can resume intimacy. I don’t want to disrupt your ovulation next month and affect the chances of conceiving successfully."

Mu Wan’s face turned slightly paler upon hearing this... So that’s what he said.

Her lips curled softly, carrying a faint bitterness, and she responded quietly.

"Alright, I understand... Sorry for troubling you with this injury."

Unable to conceive on time... The weight of that failure bore heavily on both her and Qin Mu, like matching scars on their hearts.

Qin Mu listened to her quiet, bitter whisper. His lips tightened again, and his gaze drifted away from her delicate face, as if trying to suppress the strange stirrings in his own heart.

This woman... She was simply putting on an act of self-pity.

Not having to bear his child was likely the greatest solace she could hope for.

After all... She had someone living deep within her heart.

Someone who made her treat her own life as inconsequential.

The process of bandaging was still painful. Only when the sedative-laced medication was injected did Mu Wan feel a slight relief. Even so, cold sweat continued to bead her back from the sharp sting of pain.

Her right hand, meanwhile, was directly wrapped up like a bulky bundle of cloth.

Mu Wan’s clear eyes fell on her small, gauze-covered hand, but her heart managed to breathe a faint sigh of relief.

Thankfully... The wind this morning had almost blown away, but it wasn’t the sketch she had drawn of Qin Mu in a finely tailored suit.

The sheet stained with her blood... wasn’t that sketch either.

Fortunately... Qin Mu didn’t know.

The man on her canvas, captured in motion playing basketball... was him.

Mu Wan carefully tucked these thoughts away deep within her heart...
