Seeing her so cold, Qu Xiaojue inexplicably felt displeased, speaking softly: “You will always be the husband of the Qu family. Today’s willfulness cannot happen again.”
“Back then, when your father was going to divorce me, he promised that not a single penny of the settlement would be missing.”
“What?” Qu Xiaojue’s eyes suddenly fixed on him, the light from the window casting on that familiar face. She suppressed her thoughts and said: “Xu Wan, has actually lost all your refinement?”
If he understood his identity, she would not pursue today’s mistake. Bringing this up now – does he really want to be divorced from the household?
Xu Wanzhi’s calm eyebrows twitched; she could not accept this woman’s thinking! Standing up, his momentum was not weak, coldly laughing: “So, the Qu family master is a woman of poor character!”
“You!”
Clearly enraged, she strode forward and grabbed his shoulder. Qu Xiaojue’s suppressed anger was provoked, staring into his eyes and speaking harshly: “Insulting the wife master – I originally thought you were a virtuous husband, but today I see you’re no different from a quarrelsome spouse from a small household!”
” Who wants to be your “family husband”! This woman is clearly crazy!
Xu Wanzhi ducked and broke free from her hand.
Actually, during this past month, his miscellaneous duties have been much lighter than before, and his master has become even easier to serve. However, he has been feeling increasingly uneasy in his heart, and instead has been focusing more of his thoughts on his master, thus neglecting many of the idle tasks.
Looking at the sun slowly descending outside, Qi’er glanced inside, surrounded by a familiar quietness.
Today, he had a disagreement with the old master, and the young master is not responding, which has driven the family head away from here… If he continues to be so detached from worldly affairs, people might start spreading rumors.
As the sky grew dimmer, his work became smoother, and Qi’er put away his embroidery basket.
He was just sitting there, his dark head lowered, eyes not even visible. Qi’er stared in that direction, unable to articulate the inexplicable emotion swirling within. “
