Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As a result, the Xu family didn’t dare to go out for a long time, in hopes that everyone would eventually forget about it. However, Xu Nai’s wife caused a scene again, giving everyone something to talk about once again.
Xu Nai’s wife had agreed to the marriage because of the relationship between the Xu family and Mr. Bei Shu. However, a lie was a lie, and it wouldn’t come true in the end. When Xu Nai’s wife found out that she had been deceived by Xu Qing, she became even angrier. She started to cheat. The Xu family found out about this, but they couldn’t chase this woman out.
Because Xu Nai liked her, he didn’t agree to the divorce. More importantly, this woman was very shrewish and found some local hooligans to give the Xu family a hard time…
Therefore, the Xu family became a laughing stock again. How could Xu Jiangzhong, a conceited man, tolerate it? He looked depressed all the time. Even his family was afraid of him. The villagers didn’t dare to mock them to their faces, but the Xu family couldn’t care less about it anymore.
Xu Qing was happy to see this. After all, this could be considered revenge for the Host’s family!
Xu Qing gave her family some instructions once again before packing up and leaving.
This time, Xu Sizhi, Lei Wangshu, Xie Pengyang, Xun Fen, Teng Nian, Qiao Yi, and Qiao Er were traveling together.
It would take a long time to reach the capital. In addition, Xu Qing wanted to lure those people targeting her in the dark out to prevent them from catching her off guard.
Therefore, the journey was very “lively”. Too many people wanted to take Xu Qing hostage in order to threaten Mr. Bei Shu. However, before they could see Xu Qing or any of the people with her, they were poisoned by her.
They kept hearing the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
Xu Hanxue and Xu Tingguang were fooling around and were distracted. However, everyone else sensed what had happened, including Xu Yuanguang.
Bai Xian had fed Xu Ting and Xu Yuanguang a pill when they were born. That pill could strengthen their bodies and nourish their meridians. This also allowed them to have some internal energy before they started cultivating.
This kind of medicine was rare, but Bai Xian was willing to give it to her. Therefore, Xu Qing was very grateful to Bai Xian and wanted to teach him how to perform surgery when she saw him again. However, he left in a hurry after the wedding. It had been two years since they last met.
When Xu Yuanguang found out about his talent, he went to Xu Sizhi to practice martial arts. Not long after, Xu Tingdeng found out about this, and saying that he wanted to protect his sister, he followed suit.
However, Xu Hanxue didn’t need Xu Tingdeng’s protection. She had Xu Qing and Xu Xiang by her side and was good at making poison. It was just that the dosage wasn’t up to standard.
Xu Qing calculated the number of deaths along the way and lamented, “There are really many people who want me dead!” Mr. Bei Shu had the reputation of being a very gentle person!
Xu Sizhi replied very seriously, “There are indeed many.”
Lei Wangshu smiled helplessly. Xu Qing was Mr. Bei Shu, who got in the way of many people’s road to riches. How could Bei Shu not be hated?!
However, strangely enough, not long after, there were no longer any assassins. Everyone was puzzled, but they didn’t investigate. They simply thought that the other party might have changed his methods.
But in reality, Zhuo Wuyou had rushed in front of them to clear the assassins’ ambush and let Xu Qing advance steadily.
Xu Sizhi realized this, but he didn’t tell Xu Qing because he didn’t want to make things difficult for her. Of course, if Xu Qing completely gave up on this trip, he would definitely tell her.
Seeing that Xu Qing and the others were getting closer and closer to the capital, Zhuo Wuyou became even more irritable and gloomy.
Huang Zhi’s heart ached, but he was helpless. In the end, he couldn’t help but counsel, “Master, actually, we can stop her from looking for him…” He didn’t understand. Since he liked that woman so much, he should take the initiative to pursue her! Why did he have to silently protect her for two years? It was a form of torture to himself.
Zhuo Wuyou wanted Xu Qing to give up on that man completely! He didn’t want her to have any other man in her heart! Only then could Xu Qing leave with him willingly, and the three children would prefer that as well…
Zhuo Wuyou felt that Xu Yuandeng liked him very much. Actually, Xu Yuandeng was still learning martial arts from him. Although he knew that Xu Yuandeng had no other intentions, he was still very happy because it at least proved that Xu Yuandeng didn’t dislike him!
Xu Qing had finally arrived in the capital!
As she gazed at the bustling capital, Xu Qing’s heart sank. Would she really be able to see Qiao Yanhui again? Their statuses were worlds apart. Would she even be able to speak to him?
