The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

However…

He did not want to hear any more insults about Feng Ruqing.

He wanted to expose the Qin family’s fake niceness in front of everyone. Even if all the people present were from the Qin family, he wanted to make it clear that Feng Ruqing had never done anything wrong!

“Then why did you come back?” Qin Fei’er’s face reflected discomfort. She was staring hard at the handsome young man.

Qin Chen’s gaze somewhat drifted off before he smiled and said, “Because of Qingqing.”

Qin Fei’er froze as she could not understand what he meant.

“Didn’t you want to be Nan Xian’s concubine? I hate Nan Xian. I hate anyone who’s close to Feng Ruqing. But for me, as long as Feng Ruqing is happy, I will never let anyone hinder her happiness.

“So… I’m back!”

Qin Fei’er’s eyes narrowed with anger, and her face was as pale as paper as she thought about the changes in her body.

“My body… Is it really your fault?”

“Yes. I’ve consumed all the herbs that I need after returning here. I’ve also learned much about all sorts of herbs from Feng Ruqing. So… I didn’t offer my blood.”

There was nothing wrong with being honest. But a person should not be too honest, especially with some people who did not deserve it.

He finally understood these words after he met Feng Ruqing.

“Initially, when using my blood, I only needed to add a spirit herb to make it work. However, I’ve promised Qingqing that I would not harm myself again. So I took one of the Qin family’s spirit beasts and used its blood with few colorless and tasteless spirit herbs.”

The Qin family had grounded the spirit beasts, but some of them were still untamed. And the Qin family had trusted Qin Chen too much that they did not restrict his freedom to walk around freely.

There were plenty of opportunities for Qin Chen to do that.

“I was right in my calculation. A total of twenty drug primers will make you unable to use your spiritual power. Initially, I wanted to see you drink those twenty times before leaving the Qin family. So, it seems that you have consumed the last drug primer today.”

Every time Feng Ruqing was mentioned, Qin Chen’s smile became as bright as sunshine, which was something that Qin Fei’er had never seen before.

Qin Fei’er’s voice trembled. “Why? If that’s the case, why did you leave the Qin family again?”

“Because…” Qin Chen paused. “My Qingqing has come to me and asked me to follow her. If I insisted on staying in the Qin family, she should be most embarrassed. I could not let her lose her face in front of other people. I will follow her whenever she asks me to.”

Qin Fei’er’s legs weakened, but she forced herself to hold on.

Her face turned paler, and her eyes were filled with grief. She never thought that her brother whom she had loved the most would maltreat her.

***

Suyi handed the old master to the old butler and walked slowly toward Qin Chen.

By rights, as Nan Xian’s mother, she should be worried when Qin Chen expressed his feelings toward Feng Ruqing.

However…

What had happened to Qin Chen was so heartbreaking.

“Qin Chen, the Qin family has made you suffer and called you as an ungrateful kid. You have made the right choice leaving the Qin family. If you don’t mind, you can consider me as your mother. Besides, Nan Xian also needs a little brother to be with him.”

There was an expression of sympathy on Suyi’s cold face. She gently patted Qin Chen’s back and let out a sigh.

‘All these things… It seems like Qing’er doesn’t know yet.’

Otherwise, Qing’er would have already annihilated the Qin family because she cared so much for Qin Chen.
