542 Agreement (3)
Xiao Qirui refused. He would rather be expelled from the family than let that woman be a concubine. He probably didn’t want to wrong that woman.
Unexpectedly, Feng Manman came out and begged, saying that she knew that her status was low and was not worthy of Xiao Qirui, nor was she willing to implicate him. If Xiao Qirui insisted on marrying her, she would rather die.
This was something that Yuan Yuwan had not expected.
To be honest, she could not understand such feelings.
!!
Perhaps she had indeed had fantasies about Xiao Qirui in the past, but after knowing these things, her rationality shattered those fantasies.
As for the discomfort in his heart, it was not enough.
“But…” You Bai was about to cry.
Xiao Qirui and that woman looked affectionate. One did not want to wrong the other party and would rather be expelled from the family, while the other did not want to implicate the other party and would rather die.
With such a relationship, what good could her young lady get if she married into the family?
“No buts.” Yuan Yuwan closed the book and rubbed her temples tiredly. “I remember that there are still a few parts left to embroider for that wedding dress. If you’re not tired, help me embroider it.”
“But didn’t Miss specially keep it to embroider it the day before you got married?” You Bai wanted to cry even more. She felt that her Miss was even more Buddha-like than before.
“Things are different now. There’s no need.” Yuan Yuwan smiled bitterly.
Yuan Yuwan was not a procrastinator. The next day, she visited the Xiao family. There was no need to mention how interesting Xiao Ruoshui’s expression was after knowing her intentions.
Yuan Yuwan thought that convincing General Xiao would be more difficult than convincing Madam Xiao, but he agreed without thinking.
How could she have known that if Song Jingchen hadn’t interfered, General Xiao would have thought that she didn’t know her limits and went to the Yuan family to annul the engagement on behalf of his son?
General Xiao’s taboo towards a woman who could affect his son was something she did not expect.
On the other hand, Madam Xiao held Yuan Yuwan’s hand guiltily. “Yuwan, our family has let you down.”
Yuan Yuwan shook her head. “It’s good that Madam doesn’t think that Yuwan has no manners.”
It was indeed impolite to go to her future husband’s house to take in a concubine for him before they even got married.
However, Madam Xiao thought that she had come to speak up for Xiao Qirui after knowing about the Xiao family. She pitied her even more.
She was also a woman and had suffered from being a concubine. She understood how difficult it would be if her husband’s heart was not with her.
Seeing that Yuan Yuwan was so sensible, even Madam Xiao felt a little resentful.
Why didn’t that brat cherish such a good girl?
After being beaten up by his biological father a few times, Xiao Qirui was successfully despised by his biological mother again.
Xiao Qirui was already seriously injured. After returning from the noodle shop yesterday, not only did his wound split open again, but the joints in his hands also dislocated again. The doctor in the residence worked late into the night to change his dressing and straighten his bones.
In the latter half of the night, he developed a high fever again. It did not subside until dawn.
He had just fallen asleep when the door was pushed open.
“Young Master, Young Master, the eldest daughter of the Yuan family is here,” Xiao Li reported excitedly.
He didn’t know why he was so excited, but he felt that the tables had turned.
Xiao Qirui suddenly opened his eyes and struggled to sit up.
Xiao Li quickly stopped him. “Young Master, what are you doing? The doctor said that you can’t do this again before you recover.”
Xiao Qirui frowned and said, “My father doesn’t like Miss Feng. If Miss Yuan mentions it, she will definitely anger him. If my father vents his anger on her…”
Xiao Li looked at him strangely. “Master agreed.”
He could not understand. His young master was so concerned about the eldest daughter of the Yuan family, so did he like the eldest daughter of the Yuan family or Miss Feng?
Xiao Qirui was stunned. “My father agreed?”
Xiao Li nodded. He also found it unbelievable that the person who had beaten Young Master up would let go so easily.
“Then Eldest Miss Yuan…”
Xiao Li said, “The eldest daughter of the Yuan family has already left.”
“She left?” Xiao Qirui muttered. He lay back down and waved his hand. “I understand. You can leave.”
Xiao Li looked at him strangely again and silently retreated.
The door closed. Xiao Qirui turned around with difficulty and took out a bottle of medicine from under his pillow with his good hand.
The last time she found out that he was injured, she sent him a bottle of medicine, but she didn’t ask about him at all this time.
Xiao Qirui smiled bitterly.
He was the only son of the Xiao family and the future head of the family. Actually, he knew from the beginning that General Xiao would not agree to him marrying Miss Feng.
The reason why he used her as an excuse to break off the engagement and not mention Feng Manman as a concubine from the beginning was not because of her, but because he did not want to wrong Miss Yuan.
Such a woman deserved a man who was devoted to her!
He did not expect things to end up like this.
He should have been happy to be able to marry her and repay her kindness.
However, Xiao Qirui inexplicably felt that the woman who had put down the high wall around her and cried because of his words was getting further and further away from him.
