Xu Qing lowered her eyes to hide her sadness. She didn’t know why she was suddenly sad again. She had already gotten over it.

Zhuo Wuyou frowned and looked at the person who was hugging herself while trembling slightly. His heart ached and he subconsciously reached out to hug her. His hand was also trembling. This was the first time he had hugged Xu Qing, but it also made his heart flutter. He wished he could keep hugging her like this. His voice was quivering yet gentle as he said, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here. I’ll accompany you.”

Xu Qing suddenly stiffened. His embrace caught her off guard and she was extremely flustered. In the next moment, she suddenly came to her senses. She pushed him away in a panic and stumbled down the mountain.

Zhuo Wuyou fell onto the grass in a sorry state, his gaze ambivalent.

Xu Qing’s heart was in a mess, but she wasn’t a fool. In the past two years, it wasn’t the first time she had been touched by Zhuo Wuyou. As a woman who had been dumped, she was protected by two gentle men for two years, and he never left her. He never said much and only silently helped her when she needed him. After helping her, he left again and never made things difficult for her. Who wouldn’t be moved? Humans were emotional creatures, so who could remain indifferent?

However, Xu Qing knew that she was just touched by Zhuo Wuyou. It wasn’t love. She was in love with someone else! Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but smile bitterly. She couldn’t help but say, “But who knows what the future holds?”

She was afraid… she might not be able to await Qiao Yanhui’s return. If he really stopped loving her, no matter how passionate her feelings had been back then, they would fade. Relationships had to be mutual if they wanted to last. She even wondered if Qiao Yanhui already had such a person by his side. Why else would he be getting married?

When Xu Qing returned home and saw her three sleeping children, she couldn’t help but smile. No matter how many cold nights she had to survive, as long as she had them, it was enough.

That night, Xu Qing had a dream. She dreamed that Qiao Yanhui really got married to another woman. The way he looked at her was cold and emotionless.

Xu Qing suddenly woke up and touched the corners of her eyes. She had actually shed tears. In the end, she didn’t try to go to sleep again. She just watched the sun slowly rise.

At dawn, she informed her family that she was going to the capital. However, she didn’t tell her parents that she was going to find Qiao Yanhui. She only said that it was time for their family business to continue expanding.

Qu Feng and Xu Jiangxi could take charge now, so they hoped that their family could stay together. There was no need to earn so much money. However, their objections couldn’t shake Xu Qing’s determination at all.

Qu Feng and Xu Jiangxi could only tell Xu Qing not to worry. They would look after the family well and won’t let the Xu family take advantage of them.

Of course, the people from the Xu family didn’t dare to approach Xu Qing’s family anymore, because every time they came, they would fall sick when they went back, so they became afraid. In addition, Xu Qing’s family actually raised a white wolf! Who would dare to go? Therefore, Xu Qing’s life had been much more peaceful in the past two years.

Speaking of the Xu family, Xu Yunqiao and Xu Dan had already gotten married. As for the man they married, they were also arranged by Xu Qing. It was their fault for not repenting and cursing their family behind their backs, especially the three children.

Therefore, Xu Qing arranged for a good-looking young man to pretend to be a rich young master and bump into Xu Yunqiao and Xu Dan. These two women naturally fought over the man. Chen Qiulian and Zhao Bing also came up with all kinds of schemes.

In the end, both their daughters married that rich young master. The two of them were smug about it for a long time, thinking that their daughter had become that rich young master’s only wife and that after getting married, she would be rich! In the end, on the day of the marriage, there was no wedding ceremony, and two old women came to pick them up. Moreover, he wasn’t marrying them at all. They were just brought back to be raised at home without status! But what kind of wife was a wife without status?

Chen Qiulian and Zhao Bing still married off their daughters since they were rich. Even if they weren’t official wives, they would definitely enjoy riches at home! They would also help their families in the future…

However, when they returned home after three days of marriage, Xu Yunqiao and Xu Dan came back crying. The other party was originally rich, but later on, his family went bankrupt! He barely had any assets. Most importantly, it wasn’t that young man who got married, but an old man in his seventies! That old man had already more than ten mistresses at home. Xu Yunqiao ranked twelfth, and Xu Dan ranked thirteenth!

Because of this, the Xu family became the laughing stock of everyone in the village!
