Chapter 2841: Chapter 2839: Blood Rose
"Are you serious?" Mrs. Xiao looked at An Hao in disbelief. Could things really be as she said? If that’s the case, then weren’t those words she said too presumptuous? Mrs. Xiao didn’t realize things could be like this.
But upon seeing Nangong Beiying’s belly, she felt she hadn’t made a mistake.
With a character like hers, she couldn’t be allowed through the Xiaos’ front door. Their family didn’t want such a disreputable woman.
But how to put it nicely? She had already said it so harshly and wouldn’t say much more. She decided to observe the situation first.
"Of course it’s true. Otherwise, why do you think she’s not married yet? It’s because she never intended to marry. Her family’s conditions aren’t bad, and they can afford to raise a child. You think, with a family like theirs, wouldn’t someone have proposed already?" An Hao thought her aunt had always been very clever, so why had she made such a low-level mistake this time?
"Even so, our Xiao family doesn’t want her. She should find someone who does. I’ll talk to Qi’er about it." Mrs. Xiao’s decisions weren’t easily changed.
Now she waited for her son to wake up, and then she would speak to him directly. No matter what, this woman could not enter their family.
"Mrs. Xiao, I think you’ve misunderstood. I’ve never thought about stepping through the Xiaos’ door. I just want to take care of him to repay the favor of protecting me at a critical moment. Honestly, if he hadn’t inconveniently stood in front of me, I would’ve been fine, and he wouldn’t have gotten hurt. I’m here to care for him purely because we’re friends." Nangong Beiying’s patience was gone; there was no point in talking further. There was no need to waste more words.
Since they all thought she wanted to marry Xiao Qi, there was no need to consider her earlier thoughts. The threshold of the Xiaos was too high; she, Nangong Beiying, couldn’t step over it.
She silently said in her heart: Xiao Qi, I’m sorry. I wanted to give you a chance, but it seems there really is no fate between us. Every time I prepare to accept you, something unexpected happens. This isn’t the outcome I wanted, but it really happened between us. I hope you find your partner soon. As for the child, she is of the Nangong family. I won’t let her suffer. I will raise her well.
"Listen to what she’s saying. What does she mean by he was inconvenient? Do you mean to say Xiao Qi saved you by mistake?" Another woman couldn’t help but speak up.
"Yes, that’s exactly what I mean. If it weren’t for him, maybe none of this would have happened." Nangong Beiying didn’t want to hurt Xiao Qi but couldn’t stand being attacked like this.
It was originally a life-saving grace, yet because of this situation, so many misunderstandings arose. The main thing was, when had she ever said she wanted to marry Xiao Qi? It had never happened, so how did it become her fault? She wouldn’t accept this logic.
If they didn’t wish her well, then why should she care so much anymore? If they didn’t want things to go well, then let no one be well.
Everything she accepted before didn’t allow her to act too aggressively, but that didn’t mean she wouldn’t resist.
In her past life, she could achieve that position because she had some abilities. Otherwise, how could she make people believe in her?
These things didn’t need to be said. Otherwise, what was the point of their efforts if others had already figured out their backgrounds?
Her nickname, Bloody Rose, wasn’t given in vain. Many people have faced setbacks because of her.
