Qu Hua struggled incessantly, her anger barely contained. "You're actually alright!"
If Qu Nian hadn't been holding her back, she would have jumped up.
Qu Nian: Can't you speak like a human being?
"I'm fine, I'm sorry to disappoint you!" he said through gritted teeth.
Look at Mingzhu. Although he and Prince of Jin don't share the same father, he is extremely respectful to Prince of Jin.
Then look at the one in front of me, who dared to slap me right off the bat. Is this the kind of unevenness that exists in the world of younger sisters?
The Prince of Prince of Jin was so much luckier than him! Even his sister, whom he couldn't choose, was assigned to a better family than he had!
Qu Hua struggled with all her might, but couldn't break free, and kicked Qu Nian again.
Her face was contorted with agitation and rage, her eyes practically threatening to devour Qu Nian alive.
Qu Nian dodged, angrily shouting, "Qu Jinghua, what exactly do you want to do!"
I'll beat you to death!
"How can you act like a sister?"
"How can you be such a good older brother?"
Qu Hua's breath was choked with anger.
She has been running around trying to save him for the past six months.
If she hadn't received her mother's letter, she would still be in Liaodong dealing with that fat bastard!
My own brother, on the other hand, acts like nothing's wrong and comes all the way to the Northwest to pursue his love affair.
That's really doing her a favor!
Forget slapping him, she wanted to stab him twice!
"I tried everything to save you, running around everywhere; and you, on the other hand, didn't even come to save me now that you're all better!" Qu Hua accused.
Qu Nian: "Save you? You got the short end of the stick? Who?"
They immediately transformed into a united front, sharpening their knives and preparing to fight back against external threats.
However, he didn't dare let go.
Because if she let go, Qu Hua wouldn't hesitate to slap her across the face.
Qu Nian.
This little girl has quite a temper!
He's grown up now and can't hit his sister anymore, especially since he knows that Qu Hua has really gone through a lot for him.
But that temper of his is enough to give anyone a hard time.
Qu Hua's face twisted as she said, "Go to Liaodong and kill Mu Ziyu for me! No, leave him alive, and I'll kill him myself!"
"Mu Ziyu?" Qu Nian frowned. "Who is he from the Mu Family of Liaodong?"
The Mu Family was a powerful local force in Liaodong, and the Prince of Liaodong was from the Mu Family.
"Young Master Mu Family," Qu Hua gritted her teeth, her expression somewhat resembling Qu Nian's when she was angry, "He should be torn apart by five horses!"
Qu Nian asked, "How did he bully you?"
Qu Hua: "You really want to hear this?"
Xiu'er and Ren Yingying, who were eavesdropping outside, exchanged a glance and nodded repeatedly.
Yes, yes, I'd love to listen even if it costs money.
Qu Nian's face darkened. "Did he take liberties with you? Or...?"
Thinking of his sister's behavior, he tentatively asked, somewhat uncertainly, "Or is it that you wanted him but didn't succeed?"
If it's the former, he will definitely seek justice for Qu Hua; but if it's the latter, he doesn't know what to do.
Qu Hua was so angry with Mu Ziyu that she was barely clinging to life, and now she's about to die from it all.
If she weren't being controlled, she would have slapped this brother to death!
"He wants to marry me!" Qu Hua said bitterly.
Qu Nian:???
Isn't that a sign of respect?
Pshaw, my dear sister.
He frowned and said, "You can't just refuse?"
Surely no one would be so audacious as to try and seize the princess by force.
Aren't you afraid that Qu Hua will kill him with a bowl of medicine?
To be honest, Qu Nian was worried that such a thing would happen, and also worried about the series of chain reactions that would follow.
Qu Hua: "He's shameless now; he's gone to ask my father and mother for my hand in marriage."
She was so angry that her face turned red and her eyes blazed with fury.
Like Qu Hua, who spent her days hunting geese, only to have her eyes pecked by a goose.
He actually thought of forcing her? He's blind as a bat!
If it weren't for her elder brother's illness, and the thought that there might be a life-saving treasure in Liaodong, would she have endured such humiliation?
She already felt wronged, and when she suddenly heard that Qu Nian had recovered, she immediately felt like she had found a backer.
Unexpectedly, this powerful backer proved unreliable; instead of staying with her, he went to someone else.
How can we tolerate this?
So Qu Hua stormed over in a rage to settle scores with Qu Nian, which led to the dramatic scene of her slapping Qu Nian upon meeting him.
Qu Nian said, "If you don't want to, Father and Mother won't force you. I'll ask Mother to tell you as soon as I'm better."
He was indeed grateful to Qu Hua for showing true friendship in times of trouble, and he also felt somewhat guilty about Qu Hua's accusations.
But he didn't regret it, because winning back his wife was more important.
Ren Yingying's unconventional personality, Qu Nian couldn't even imagine what she would become if she weren't by his side for a few months.
Qu Hua her foot. "Why didn't you come to find me!"
Qu Nian: "I... get in here!"
Xiu'er pushed Ren Yingying inside.
Ren Yingying: "..."
She waved to Qu Hua.
Hello, long time no see.
Qu Hua glanced at her and turned her head away.
She holds grudges very well.
Ren Yingying never listened to her, and she never listened to Ren Yingying either.
Qu Nian: "Jinghua, don't be rude!"
Qu Hua's eyes widened. "Say that again!"
What older brother wouldn't side with his younger sister?
Is this older brother of hers a fake?
Qu Nian explained to Ren Yingying, "She was wronged elsewhere, it has nothing to do with you, I'll handle it."
"How are you going to solve this?" Qu Hua became increasingly angry.
Ren Yingying watched the brother and sister bickering and said, "Don't worry about me, you two continue. I came to see what's going on... If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."
"Stop!" Qu Nian said. "Have you figured out what's going on?"
Ren Yingying: "... No."
You're leaving without me!
Qu Nian let go of Qu Hua's hand and came over to pull Ren Yingying: "Come here, let me introduce you."
"We know each other!" the two women said in unison, as if they were fighting.
Qu Nian: "It doesn't count since I didn't exist before."
Neither woman listened to him.
Qu Nian: "..."
Ren Yingying turned and walked out. "Excuse me, please continue."
Let's fight! Let's fight!
Qu Hua chuckled, looking at Qu Nian with mockery. "So this is the woman you abandoned your sister for, now so eager to please her!"
Ren Yingying turned around. "You two siblings are arguing, don't involve innocent people, thank you."
Qu Nian in a real bind.
If he lets Qu Hua leave now, will Qu Hua scratch him?
But these two women really can't live under the same roof.
It benefits no one.
However, Tang Zhuyun could understand Qu Hua. She was stubborn but soft-hearted towards her older brother; but if her brother wasn't supportive, anyone would be frustrated.
Qu Hua left the palace two days later.
Tang Zhuyun couldn't believe it. "He's just gone like that?"
Is Qu Hua someone who can be easily appeased?
Xiu'er said, "Qu Nian 'the loss of sovereignty and the humiliation of the country.'"
"What did you promise her?" Tang Zhuyun asked curiously.
Xiu'er made a gesture as if she were counting money.
Tang Zhuyun suddenly realized.
Indeed, there's no problem that money can't solve.
However, she soon stopped worrying about others because an imperial edict suddenly arrived in the capital, summoning Tang Zhuyun to the capital.
