"What’s going on? Why say these things all of a sudden?" Jiang Yixiu asked heavily, his eyes full of concern.
Luo Yan looked flustered, "No, nothing. I’m just afraid of making mistakes in the future, so I wanted to..."
"Wanted to get a get-out-of-jail-free card from in advance, right?" Jiang Yixiu suddenly asked with a smile.
Luo Yan lowered her gaze, looking at him holding her hand, feeling warmth in her heart. "Yes, that’s what I was thinking. Yixiu, I know you haven’t forgotten her yet, but I will make you forget her."
"..." Jiang Yixiu was in a decent mood at first, but his face suddenly turned gloomy. "Luo Yan, do we have to bring her up between us? I’ve already promised to marry you; let’s talk about her less in the future!"
"Sorry—" Luo Yan’s expression was aggrieved. "I just lack confidence. In my view, Sister Qingxin is better than in every way. I’m just an ignorant little girl. Back then, in Bao Huan, if it weren’t for her taking care of , I would’ve lived a miserable life."
Jiang Yixiu understood that Mu Qingxin indeed had admirable qualities. Unfortunately, between him and her now... they really shouldn’t continue entangling.
Since he’s decided to let go, he would follow through. Otherwise, if he had to learn to bark like a dog in the street, how embarrassing would that be!
"Yes, I know you really should thank her for that. Let’s talk about it when there’s a chance in the future!"
"Yixiu, do you really not know where she is?" Luo Yan cautiously asked.
"I don’t know." The man shook his head. "I’m no longer connected to her, and won’t care about her life or death. Don’t worry, a woman like her surely won’t let herself suffer. She might have already latched onto so wealthy man and is living more freely than us—"
Luo Yan’s eyes dimd slightly, "Maybe. Sister Qingxin always had a way with n; it could be like that."
Hearing her say this, Jiang Yixiu felt turmoil inside, and instinctively tightened his grip on her hand—
Luo Yan felt the pain and wanted to pull her hand away. When she looked up, she saw the man absent-minded, and her heart instantly went cold.
She was standing right in front of him, yet in his eyes and heart, there was no trace of her. When will this suffering end?
When will it co to an end?
Luo Yan felt if this continued, she would truly go mad, driven crazy by jealousy.
Sister Qingxin, I really don’t want to harm you, but you... the one thing you shouldn’t have done was have a child.
If you truly want to sever ties with the Jiang Family, you shouldn’t have given birth to this child.
...
The next day, Old Madam Jiang routinely brought food for Mu Qingxin.
Mu Qingxin was originally lounging on the bed, but upon seeing her, she imdiately got up, respectfully saying, "Old Madam, you’re here."
Old Madam Jiang still showed no kindness to her, saying, "Get up and eat sothing. I’ve been feeding you well these days, why aren’t you absorbing it? If you don’t, what about my grandson?"
"..." Mu Qingxin was about to say sothing but considering the old lady’s mood, decided against it and obediently started eating. Now she knows that giving birth to the child well is the best atonent for the Jiang Family.
Yet for so reason, she felt today’s al had a peculiar taste—
Old Madam Jiang saw her furrow her brows and said, "I asked the cook to add so herbs to the soup, don’t worry, they’re only for maintaining pregnancy, they won’t harm you or the child."
"Yes, I understand." Mu Qingxin nodded.
But the next second, she felt a piercing pain in her abdon.
She tightly held the chopsticks, her slender white fingers exerted until they turned green, "It hurts, my stomach hurts—"
