Office worker Xiao Yingchun gave up; she quit her job to go home and inherit her parents' small supermarket.
One day, a young, valiant general entered through the back door of the superma...
Qi Rongrong was still worried about Wei Xu.
As soon as Fu Chenan and Xiao Yingchun entered the yard, they felt the difference this time.
The yard was as clean as before, but there were fewer precious flowers and plants.
As soon as he entered the house, Fu Chenan discovered that many rare ornaments were missing from the antique display cabinet.
Fu Chenan's face looked unhappy.
Qi Rongrong was very good at reading people's faces. When she saw Fu Chenan's face change, she immediately explained carefully.
"Xu'er went to Tianlang. He was unfamiliar with the place and surrounded by wolves. He was still a child..."
As soon as she said this, Qi Rongrong couldn't continue.
She remembered that when she left Fu Chenan, Fu Chenan was just a child of four years old.
She could turn around and leave a child over four years old without any reluctance, but she was very worried about her teenager and was willing to follow him even thousands of miles away.
What is a mother's heart? It's just that there is a difference.
Just as Fu Chenan was about to speak, he felt his hand being pinched.
He turned his head and met Xiao Yingchun's concerned look.
Xiao Yingchun told him with her eyes: Don't be afraid, I'm always by your side.
Fu Chenan's nose felt even more sore. He took a deep breath calmly, suppressed his emotions, and then nodded.
"You called me here today, is it because of him?"
Qi Rongrong nodded, then shook her head, but in the end she couldn't get around her goal and could only speak frankly.
"...I'm worried about him going there alone...You have a son and a daughter now, and you live a good life..."
"I want to...I want to go to Tianlang to accompany him..."
After saying this, Qi Rongrong lowered her head as if she had done something wrong: "An'er, I know I was wrong before, I'm sorry for you..."
Fu Chenan interrupted coldly: "Enough!"
"..." Qi Rongrong stopped talking in panic and looked up at Fu Chenan, "An'er, don't be angry, and don't take it out on Xu'er..."
Fu Chenan's voice was cold: "Did he ask you to go?"
Qi Rongrong shook her head like a drum: "No! I just want to go."
"He was determined to tell me not to go, saying that you gave him a hundred guards, and that he had you and Your Majesty backing him up, so those people wouldn't dare to do anything to him, and that he could handle it himself..."
"But he is only a teenager after all..."
As Qi Rongrong spoke, she looked at Fu Chenan with a guilty and fearful look on her face.
Fu Chenan moved his eyes away from Qi Rongrong's face. He was afraid that if he looked at her one more time, he would feel more heartbroken.
My wife wants me to reconcile with her, and I'm trying my best to do that.
On the trip to Tianlang, I did my best to protect her. I kept guarding her behind me in dangerous moments, and I also heard her shouting "be careful" in panic.
Although she never called his name because she was in disguise, Fu Chenan knew that his mother was calling him.
She was also worried that something might happen to her.
At that time, his heart was warm and he felt that everything was worth it. He even began to feel sorry for her and tried to understand her by putting himself in her shoes.
After returning from Tianlang, he often came to visit. He occasionally stayed for a meal and brought Xiao Yingchun and her son to see her...
He thought that he could finally make his mother see his good side, and that he would finally have a place in her heart...
Who would have thought that she was willing to go to Tianlang surrounded by wolves just because she was worried about Wei Xu.
Fu Chenan's eyes swept across the antique display shelf: "Did you pack all these things? Or did you sell them?"
Qi Rongrong lowered her head, her eyes dodging: "The people below should have reported to you, I want to take Tianlang..."
Fu Chenan pointed out the window again: "What about the flowers and plants outside? Do you want to take Tianlang with you too?"
Qi Rongrong's eyes became more evasive: "The climate over there is different from here. If I bring the flowers and plants over there, they might not adapt to the local climate. If I leave them here, they might die. I'll ask someone... someone to take care of it..."
Fu Chenan almost lost his temper!
What was handled?
Yes it was sold!
She was worried about Wei Xu, and afraid that the court officials would bully him when he needed to spend money, so she sold all the rare flowers and plants in the yard and exchanged them for silver to give to Wei Xu.
When his subordinates came to report, he thought Qi Rongrong just wanted to support Wei Xu, so he acquiesced.
Who knew that Qi Rongrong not only sold the flowers and plants for silver, but also packed up the antiques and prepared to go there in person!
Fu Chenan tried to hold back, but finally couldn't help it and his tone became sarcastic.
"If you go to Tianlang, can you help Wei Xu solve cases? Or can you help him manage the court?"
"Or, can you control the concubines in his harem, young and old, who are succeeded by their brothers or their sons?"
"You can't help at all. What else can you do except cause trouble?"
Qi Rongrong lowered her head, not daring to speak a word, but she pursed her lips stubbornly and refused to say "I won't go".
Fu Chenan sneered and simply exposed her little thoughts: "The reason why you insist on going is that you see through me and I can't bear it!"
"I'm afraid that you'll suffer in the past, so I'll give you more people, more things, and pay more attention to Tianlang's situation!"
"You are still using me! You are taking advantage of my affection for you to force me to help Wei Xu!"
"Mom! Wei Xu and I are both your sons, why do you never see me? Why are you so obsessed with him?"
"Why do you always have to sacrifice me to protect him?"
“I’d be sad too!”
After Fu Chenan finished yelling, his eyes turned red and he almost burst into tears.
He tried to hold back his tears, but his tears refused to obey and kept falling.
Qi Rongrong never expected that Fu Chenan would cry.
His words were like sharp knives, tearing her fig leaf into shreds!
But Qi Rongrong refused to admit it: "It's not like that... It's not like that..."
She was extremely flustered. She handed him the scented handkerchief to wipe his tears while she continued to explain.
"You have been sensible since you were young. You have been able to stand on your own and accomplish great things. But Xu'er is not like that. He knows nothing..."
"You are all my children. I definitely hope that you are all well... He went to Tianlang alone..."
Fu Chenan pushed her hand away: "Aren't you just afraid that it will be dangerous for him to go to Tianlang alone?"
"Okay! I will give the order right now. Let him come back and continue to study at Yingchun Academy. He will live his whole life in anonymity and be filial to you in the capital!"
As Fu Chenan spoke, he turned around and was about to walk out.
Qi Rongrong was completely panicked. She shouted, "No!"
She couldn't ruin Xuer's future just because of her own will!
This shout made everyone's heart tremble.
Xiao Yingchun looked at Fu Chenan who had stopped walking with heartache. She could feel that Fu Chenan was stabbed in the heart again!
After Qi Rongrong finished shouting, she realized that her voice was too loud, and she returned to her timid tone: "I... I was just anxious just now..."
Fu Chenan was completely desperate.
He turned back coldly and glanced at Qi Rongrong: "It turns out that it is not recognized, and it is still not recognized after all."
“No matter how much effort we put in, it’s useless.”
"If you want to go, go ahead."
"But the journey is long and the mountains are high. We may never see each other again."
"Take care on your journey! I won't see you off."
After saying this, Fu Chenan grabbed Xiao Yingchun's hand and ran away.
At first, Xiao Yingchun's wrist was held by Fu Chenan. Later, her wrist was really hurt, so she struggled hard to free herself. Without waiting for Fu Chenan to say anything, she turned around and held Fu Chenan's big hand, interlocking their fingers.
Xiao Yingchun raised her eyes and met Fu Chenan's red eyes. She spoke very seriously, word by word: "Chenan, I am always here. I will accompany you." (End of this chapter)
