Chapter 821: 821 Fourth brother treats second brother’s knife wound
“She clearly has wound medicine, yet she lied to the second young Master, saying she didn’t have any…” Li Rong’er’s eyes flashed with dissatisfaction.
Xiao Qinghe glanced at her coldly, “Qingyue indeed doesn’t have any healing medicine, she said no one in her family is injured and that I could prepare the wound medicine myself. Although she teaches me medicine, she never meddles with the medicine I prepare. When she said she didn’t have healing medicine, it was because she truly didn’t have any.”
“It seems I misunderstood my wife…” Xiao Yishan’s stern face flickered with a thread of guilt and then he thought about how his wife could stab him over such a trivial matter, which chilled his heart.
“Second brother…” Xiao Qinghe looked at him blandly, “you should probably stop calling Qingyue your wife, as she is serious. She really will take your life…”
“But…” His heart ached, “If I don’t call her my wife, then I have lost her…”
Xiao Qinghe’s expression showed little change, “Second brother, the truth is, you lost her long ago. Or rather, what loss is there if you never had her to begin with?”
...
“Stop talking!” Xiao Yishan felt an internal agony, his handsome face turning ashen.
A bitter smile flickered at the corners of Qinghe’s lips, “Second brother, I know it’s hard for you. Your wife doesn’t even have you in her heart, she only respects you as an elder brother. And me…”
He closed his eyes in pain, “The person my wife chose was me, and yet I pushed her away.”
Just now, he had not failed to notice the disappointed look in his wife’s eyes when she looked at him.
He had been petrified by the ferocity with which his wife had taken a knife to stab the second brother.
Only now did he realize that his wife had avoided the major blood vessels, even though the knife wound was deep, the second brother hadn’t bled much.
His wife had been precise in her actions.
And yet, he had been anxious for the second brother, unable to trust her fully. She must be… disappointed in him.
Li Rong’er, listening to the brothers’ conversation, was secretly elated.
So it seems, Su Qingyue will not cling to Xiao Yishan, and Xiao Qinghe doesn’t want her either.

Then…
There’s only Xiao Yuchuan, the one who wants to divide the family.
Brother Xiao is so protective of me, who else but I, Li Rong’er, could be the mistress of the Xiao Family?
In the kitchen, Xiao Yuchuan had finished cooking the vegetables and brought the food to the table.
The rice was cooked by Li Rong’er, enough for five people.
But the vegetables cooked by Xiao Yuchuan were only enough for two.
He served two bowls of rice at the table and called for Su Qingyue, “Wife, let’s eat.”
Su Qingyue sat at the table, “You didn’t cook for second brother and the others?”
He said unhappily, “Who told them to hurt your feelings, I don’t cook for them. We’ll just eat, the two of us.”
Looking at his handsome face, she understood that although the third brother didn’t say it outright, his intention was clear, for her sake, he could forgo even his close relatives.
The fourth brother had given up on her, and originally, she still harbored thoughts for the fourth brother’s deep-seated inferiority, wanting to wait for him to change his mind.
But she, Su Qingyue, also wasn’t one to easily give up on her choice.
Today, however, the fourth brother had sided with the second brother.
This was something she could not tolerate.
The third brother might seem selfish, disregarding even brotherly affection, and such a man would seem condemnable in the eyes of most.
But he wasn’t unreasonable, he simply trusted her unconditionally.
She, Su Qingyue, had to admit that in many respects, she was quite reasonable.
Other women might need a great man with an abundance of affection. What she, Su Qingyue, wanted was a man who trusted her and put her first in every matter.
As of today, she had fully seen through the Xiao Family’s brothers.
Clearly, the third brother was her good partner.
Xiao Yuchuan saw her in a daze and waved his hand in front of her, “Wife, what are you thinking?” He put a chopstick of vegetables into her bowl, “Eat your vegetables.”
