The Long-awaited Mr Han - Chapter 2183

Chapter 2183: Fell for the Same Tricks

This had nothing to do with her status as the official wife, nor anything to do with loving Lu Qiyuan.

It’s purely because she hadn’t completely shifted all of Lu Qiyuan’s assets to her name.

How much she stood to lose if they divorced!

Xia Qingyang was both sulky and furious, feeling the weight of both emotions.

And worse, she got yelled at by Lu Qi, so the thought that Lu Qi also reckoned Lu Qiyuan wanted to divorce her to marry that hussy blossomed.

Instantly, Xia Qingyang burst into tears with a loud wail.

“I’m angry and I’m scared, and you still wish me dead?” Xia Qingyang cried.

“Mom, don’t be unreasonable! How could I want you dead?” Resigned, Lu Qi parked the car by the curbside.

“It’s because your actions just now were too dangerous. I know you’re angry, but you can’t treat both our lives carelessly! It’s that vixen and Dad who’s wrong, yet you’re the one who’s gonna be hurt first? What’s with that?”Lu Qi said helplessly.

“What’s more, I’ve said it before. That Jiang Yujie is obviously someone devious!” Lu Qi said.

“What’s the point of saying this now!” Xia Qingyang fumed. “The point now is, how do we deal with Jiang Yujie! That hussy who dares to steal what’s mine! She isn’t stealing my man, she’s stealing my money!”

Xia Qingyang said coldly, “I bet her ambitions aren’t small. How can anyone be satisfied with just being a mistress?”

Back then, that was what she’d said to Lu Qiyuan—that she was satisfied as long as she was with him, no matter her status.

And she couldn’t fight with Xia Qingwei too, since she’s her sister. She’d already stolen her man, she couldn’t steal her position too.

She’d even strongly insisted for Lu Qiyuan to not say it; she feared her sister would be upset.

Wasn’t that the same exact tricks she’d used?

What fearing Xia Qingwei would be upset, etc., etc.?

She couldn’t wait to kick Xia Qingwei away and take over her position.

This move was merely an advance in the guise of a retreat.

Letting Lu Qiyuan assume she’d bear anything for him, that she didn’t care for anything else but him.

Her love was for him, not for that position and status.

And step by step, she’d made Lu Qiyuan feel apologetic towards her.

Then she gave birth to Lu Qi, and she used her to make a fuss.

One day, it’d be about some kid bullying Lu Qi, the next day, it’d be about someone seeing Lu Qi through colored lenses.

Slowly but surely, Lu Qiyuan felt he was doing Lu Qi wrong too.

Lu Man was the legitimate child, enjoying all its privileges.

But Lu Qi was despised, and so stressed that she didn’t even dare venture out.

Every time he went back, she’d question him, asking why they said she didn’t have a daddy.

Why they said her mom was shameless.

Hearing these types of questions many times made Lu Qiyuan increasingly apologetic towards Lu Qi.

Lu Qiyuan’s logic at that time was that, since Lu Man was already the legitimate child, and since he didn’t have any love towards Xia Qingwei, a divorce wouldn’t affect Lu Man’s reputation while he could still give Lu Qi a proper family.

So she wouldn’t be mocked by others.

And hence, Xia Qingyang got what she wanted.

In reality, any mistress who didn’t want to become the official wife was a failed mistress.

Because of her own experience as a mistress, Xia Qingyang knew Jiang Yujie’s thoughts very well.

They were all the same—everyone knew the truth!

She could even assume Jiang Yujie would definitely use the same method to hook Lu Qiyuan.

After so many years, Lu Qiyuan was still falling for the same tricks!
