The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 502
Disappointment and heartache.
She even felt like strangling her to death.
“Speak up, are you actually disgusted by me and that’s why you won’t be with me!” He roared in pain.
Su Qingyue was the type who could only tolerate gentleness but despised force. Her specialty was driving people mad, “Yes.”
That one word rang out clearly in the quiet night.
Upon receiving her answer, overwhelming pain filled Xiao Yishan’s deep eyes. His tall and mighty body seemed to have lost all its strength, leaning against the doorframe in despair.
Seeing him like this, Su Qingyue also felt uncomfortable, wanting to explain something.
In the end, she still didn’t speak up.
She rejected him to avoid further confusion, even though he misunderstood it as her disdain for him.
So be it.
In her previous life, when she carried out missions, she would spare no methods to achieve her objectives- perhaps, she couldn’t let go of this in her current life, as well.
She wanted him to give up hope.
As long as he gave up, it didn’t matter what he thought.
She turned her head and saw Xiao Yuchuan and Xiao Qinghe, leaning against the kitchen doorway with pale faces, looking this way.
Despite the dim light in the courtyard and the distance, she could see the worry on their faces.
She had no intention of pondering over her third and fourth brothers’ thoughts.
Maybe they suspected her of seducing-%{BEM:do-not-remove}-their second brother?
Did they think she was dishonest?
If they were truly dissatisfied with her, Su Qingyue wouldn’t avoid it and would face it calmly.
The atmosphere at home was tense for a while.
Little Bastard ran over and called out to Su Qingyue, “Awoo…”, its front paws resting on her knees, as if sensing that she was in a bad mood.
Su Qingyue bent down and stroked its little wolf head.
It stuck out its tongue to lick her hand, “Awoo… Awoo…”, as if comforting her.
Su Qingyue suddenly felt that in these strange ancient times, only her little wolf truly cared for her unconditionally, while all the men in the family were so unfamiliar to her.
She turned and went back into the room.
Little Bastard followed her in as well.
She went to sleep, and it guarded her by her bed.
Xiao Qinghe maneuvered in his wheelchair, with Xiao Yuchuan helping to support it, as they made their way helplessly towards the secondary bedroom.
“Wife… ” Chuan’s voice sounded at the door.
“What’s the matter?” She asked indifferently. There was no emotion in her voice.
“Wife, are you crying?” Xiao Yuchuan’s tone was full of concern.
“You’re the one who’s crying! Your whole family’s crying!”
“That’s right, wife. My entire family is crying.” He said anxiously, “We’re all worried about you. Please open the door and see for yourself. Your husband has already shed a whole tub of tears from worry.”
Hearing Chuan’s exaggerated words, Su Qingyue’s frustration dissipated. At least, her husband believed her and was here to comfort her. As long as there was no misunderstanding between her and her second brother, all was well. “I’m really fine. Go to sleep. We have to go into town tomorrow.”
“Are you really okay?” Yuchuan was unsure.
“I am.”
“Then, sleep well, wife. Don’t be sad.” Her husband spoke in a tone like he was soothing a baby, “If the second brother goes too far, I’ll fight him once I recover. Even if I tried attacking him with a knife now, I would only end up getting killed by him.”
Hearing his eager concern and comforting words, Su Qingyue, for the first time, found Yuchuan’s voice not annoying but rather pleasant to her ears.
“Wife, a thousand wrongs – a million wrongs are all due to the second brother. The fault lies with others, and you are definitely not to blame.” He repeated tirelessly, but when there was no response from inside the room,
