Ma Laiwang didn’t know how to react, his heart was filled with bitterness. However, he ultimately didn’t tell Li Zhong who the girl he liked was. He thought maybe he could first find soone to ask her thoughts. If she had feelings for him too, then he’d have a direction to strive for. If she wasn’t interested, he’d just pretend he never thought about it.
The weather was getting warr, and the day of Li Xiang’s wedding was approaching, while Yang Ruxin’s belly grew bigger.
When Guan Qingshu visited again, it was to seek dical help for his sister Guan Qingyue.
Ever since she was sent back last ti, Guan Qingyue had been a bit shocked. Later, after learning that Wang Baozhu was sentenced to death, she finally broke down. She couldn’t sleep through the night, and any slight sound would startle her into screaming or even fainting.
The Guan Family had asked doctors for help, but neither Li Yi nor Wang Zhenggang from the town could do anything. Even after having soone co to collect her soul as Guan Tongshi requested, there was no effect, and it worsened. Just yesterday, she tried to hang herself from the roof beam with a rope she got herself. Luckily, Guan Tongshi heard the commotion and saved her in ti.
"Xinxin." Guan Qingshu looked apologetic. "I know we don’t have the face to ask for your help, but I only have this one sister. If possible, I still hope she’ll be okay, so I hope Xinxin can take a look at her."
Though Guan Qingyue was awake, she tightly shut her eyes, clearly trying to avoid reality.
"Xinxin, I’m begging you." Guan Tongshi knelt directly down. "Please help my daughter. I’ll be your servant for life."
Seeing this, Guan Danian was about to kneel as well.
Yang Ruxin’s face turned stern.
Guan Qingshu quickly supported his father and pulled his mother up as well: "Dad, Mom, let’s talk this through. Xinxin isn’t holding court now."
Guan Danian and Guan Tongshi could only stand sullenly at the side.
Guan Qingyue suddenly opened her eyes, looking directly at Yang Ruxin, then darted behind Guan Qingshu: "I won’t dare anymore."
Yang Ruxin frowned. Had this girl been scared into madness by her? Was she really that frightening? If she wasn’t pregnant, she might have been able to use her thoughts to make the other say what she truly felt. But after becoming pregnant, that skill was gone. She wondered if it would return after giving birth.
"Really," Guan Qingyue beca anxious when Yang Ruxin didn’t speak. "I’ll never poison anyone again, nor will I try to steal Master Xie."
"Master Xie?" Yang Ruxin was surprised. How was this related to Master Xie?
"Yes." Guan Qingyue nodded. "Wang Baozhu told that I’m prettier than Li Xiang. Why should Master Xie marry her and not ? Besides, my brother is Jieyuan. He’ll be an official in the future, and I’ll be a lady, perfect matches with Master Xie, so she taught to take him away." She hurriedly waved her hands, "But I didn’t do it, really."
"Wang Baozhu?" Guan Tongshi exclaid, "That wretched girl corrupted my daughter."
"How did she tell you to steal Master Xie?" Yang Ruxin raised an eyebrow slightly, asking in a casual tone.
"She told to find a chance to invite Li Xiang out, then drug her with what brothel won use, strip her clothes, and find a man to have at her... By then, Master Xie would definitely not want her anymore."
