"Alright," Wen Gui looked at the three rs who were kneeling in front of him, with a stern expression on his face. He crossed his arms in front of him and said to them, "Have you cald down?"
Neither of the three rs spoke, which showed that they hadn't had enough of their fill yet. Though they knew that it was completely legal for Mo Qiang to marry another r, they still couldn't help but feel betrayed. They knew that they would have to face this day sooner or later but now that they had to, they couldn't do it.
Seeing their sullen expressions, Wen Gui knew that they were not reconciled and sighed.
"I know that you are upset and I also know that you don't like that Qi Qi is now married to soone else," Wen Gui began in a calm voice. "And believe , I can understand your anger. After all, I once faced the sa situation when your mother-in-law brought another r ho. I really do."
"Then why didn't you stop her, father?" Shao Hui asked with a pout. Compared to the other two, he was the one who was upset about this sudden addition to their family the most.
He didn't like changes and the fact that his wife had married soone else didn't sit well with him at all.
Wen Gui glanced at Shao Hui, who pursed his lips in a thin line but didn't say anything to take back his words. Of course, Wen Gui knew that his sons-in-law were dissatisfied with him but he also had his own way to deal with them. He smirked and stated, "Do you think my daughter is like your mother-in-law?"
"Your mother-in-law was a fool. She treated that fish eye as a pearl and let down again and again, which was how I got dissatisfied with that r. While I do understand your initial jealousy and refusal to accept her new partner, you need to also admit that my daughter has given you enough respect and security to prove that she is not going to like the new and forget the old."
"Tell , has my daughter ever done anything to put you three down? She has done everything to give you the honour and respect that you deserve, hasn't she?"
He turned to look at Yin Fu and stated, "Don't think that I do not know the small calculations that you had when you wanted to get close to Xifeng."
As soon as he said those words, the three rs turned uncomfortable.
"Dad, about that —"
"Father, we didn't…"
"I didn't—"
"There is no need to make excuses." Wen Gui raised his hand and stopped them from speaking; after all, he was very clear about the virtue of his daughter when she was not in the right state of her mind and was doing whatever she wanted.
If not for the fact that he was her daddy, Wen Gui too would have long lost his patience with her. Compared to him, these rs were just her husbands who married her out of the sheer obligation and desperation to get away from their troubles.
Why would they stay married to her if she didn't give them the security and love that they wanted?
It was only natural that they would want to get involved with a much more mature and gentle woman.
"What I am trying to say is that everyone has to make so decisions and back down from their original plans due to so changes and twists of events. However, just because of so small changes, the person doesn't beco a sinner, alright?"
"Qi Qi has never —ntioned about taking away the position or the independence that she has given to you three." Wen Gui spoke in an even voice as he tried to comfort and clear the doubts of his sons-in-law. "I know you are scared and worried that Qi Qi will change and she will take back what she has given to you. I felt the sa. But …"
He paused and asked, "Has she done anything that made you think like that? If she wanted, she could have let you three down ages ago; why would she waste her ti till now? Don't forget that you were the ones who let her down first and if I could sense that there was sothing wrong with you three in the beginning, do you think that my daughter didn't notice it?"
"She has given you her trust; you three should try it too."
"Miss Qiang, how are you feeling today?" Mo Qiang stiffened as she slowly raised her head and looked at the r who had co looking for her.
She had not even thought that she could avoid Fu Qi Hong; she wasn't so foolish to think that she could do such a thing but as she looked at the r who stood in front of her with a cold look in his eyes, Mo Qiang suddenly felt a bit cold.
It was as if soone had turned the cooling to the maximum.
"Your highness," Mo Qiang greeted, feeling more troubled than relieved. She was about to leave the hospital; her body was recovering just fine. If everything goes well, then she could go back ho today. At least that was the plan until this r ca swaggering inside her ward.
Now, she was sure that her stay in the hospital was going to a little longer.
Fu Qi Hong flashed her a smile which was not a smile and questioned her in a cold voice, "When you left alone in the ward, I thought that you had so ergency. Never did I think that you would actually get married."
He paused and then gasped, "I am so sorry, I didn't bring a gift. Will you forgive ?"
"Your highness, will you listen to ?" Mo Qiang raised her hands in the air. For the first ti in her life, she was suffering from too much popularity!
If this was what it ant to be in high demand, then she might as well stay low-key!
