The Luo family was no longer peaceful now.

Luo Fei sat on the sandalwood chair. He clenched his fists tightly and he appeared to be infuriated.

Qin Xiaoyue was sobbing hard. She seemed to have been wronged. “It was unintentional. I didn’t mean to harm Xiao Li. I wasn’t standing properly just now. I did not hold the cup in my hand firmly. I had scalded her hand by accident. Luo Fei, I’m really sorry. I know that I was wrong. I don’t know how to ask for forgiveness from Xiao Li. I’m willing to do anything to compensate it as long as she would forgive me.”

“That’s enough!” Luo Fei stood up, abruptly. He walked out of the living room.

Qin Xiaoyue realized now that Luo Fei was indeed infuriated. She became nervous and grabbed onto Luo Fei’s hand quickly. “Luo Fei, where are you going?”

“I’m going to meet Li’er.”

‘That young girl is still away from home even though she’s badly hurt. Does she really think that I don’t care about her?

‘Our spirit herbs are much better than those in the hospital. Why is she not coming home? Why does she want to go to the hospital?’

“Luo Fei…” Qin Xiaoyue seemed to be deeply grieved. “I’m the young lady of the Qin family. I’m rather pretty too. It’s impossible that I can’t find myself a man. Why do I want to be with you? I have even accepted Li’er for you.”

Luo Fei suddenly stopped walking. His fists still clenched, tightly.

‘Luckily, that was only an accident. It was unintentional. If she is hurting Li’er deliberately, I’ll never forgive her for the rest of my life.

‘Now, I cannot tolerate her before Li’er forgives her.’

“I know that Li’er has always disliked me. I do know why. There’s only her in the Luo family before I came. She’s adored by everybody here. If I get into the Luo family, she would think that I’ll get all of your attention.” Qin Xiaoyue laughed bitterly. “She’ll be unable to accept any woman even if someone else comes along. Only I am able to endure all of these issues. Luo Fei, do you really plan on not getting married for the rest of your life just for her sake?”

Luo Fei was frustrated. He did not respond.

“Luo Fei…” Qin Xiaoyue approached Luo Fei. She smiled bitterly. “If you’re really unhappy with me, I’ll leave without a word. I have self-esteem too. I won’t beg for your acceptance. In fact, I have chosen you before because of one more reason. I cannot have babies. You have Li’er and you do not favor sons over daughters. You won’t ask me to have a baby with you.”

Luo Fei was shocked.

‘Qin Xiaoyue cannot have babies.

‘That means that I won’t have another child? No one will compete with Li’er then.

‘If Qin Xiaoyue had mentioned that earlier, Li’er might have accepted her without making so much fuss. But now, Li’er is hurt. It’s too late now.’

In fact, Qin Xiaoyue could not have babies.

But, it was impossible for her to become anyone’s concubine given her status and background. On the other hand, no family would accept a lady who could not have babies.

It was ridiculous if a family had children whose mothers were only the concubines in the family.

But, Luo Fei was different.

He had Li’er and he was different from the other men. He did not have any concubines.

However, Luo Li did not accept her all this while.

Luo Li was just afraid that Qin Xiaoyue’s children would get all her father’s attention. She was scared that her special status in the Luo family would be snatched away.

Qin Xiaoyue chose not to confess before because she had her own self-esteem too. When it was time for her to speak up…

Qin Xiaoyue had destroyed Luo Li’s mother’s memorial tablet.

If Old Lady Luo did not say those things to enrage Qin Xiaoyue, Qin Xiaoyue might not be so jealous of a dead person and destroy her memorial tablet.

The old lady told Qin Xiaoyue that Li’er had only one mother. They must never force Li’er if she chose not to address Qin Xiaoyue as her mother.
