On Vermilion Bird Avenue, a wedding procession stretching for miles advanced in grand splendor.
The gilded bridal sedan, carried by sixteen bearers, shimmered under the sunlight. The embroide...
Chapter 303
Xu Qingshi had just heard Xu Heming's words and felt very aggrieved when he thought of his father saying that he would send him to the Zhou family.
My father knows perfectly well that he doesn't like the Zhou family.
But now, her father was going to dislike her because he would soon have other younger brothers and sisters, and even send her to the Zhou family. Thinking of this, Xu Qingshi's little shoulders slumped.
They look so pitiful.
Xu Qingshi thought that rather than letting her father drive her away, she should leave on her own initiative. At least that way, her father wouldn't hate her, right?
However, as Xu Qingshi walked, she couldn't help but look back at Xu Heming, praying in her heart that Xu Heming would ask her to stay.
Xu Heming pursed his lips, he hadn't expected Xu Qingshi to come back at this time.
He never expected that Xu Qingshi would hear what he said, but with Zhou Changfeng here, he couldn't very well say that he was just saying things in anger.
Zhou Changfeng felt a chill run down his spine. His original intention was to have Xu Heming marry Zhou Yuying, but now it had turned into sending Xu Qingshi back to the Zhou family.
He thought that, given how much his wife doted on their son, and how badly Xu Qingshi was injured in the fight with Zhou Xingzhi today, she probably wouldn't treat the child well.
“Your Highness, Qingshi is a child of your Xu family. It wouldn’t be proper for me to take him back,” Zhou Changfeng said somewhat awkwardly.
At this point, he dared not mention again the idea of Xu Heming marrying Zhou Yuying.
"It's alright. If Young Master Zhou likes it, I wouldn't mind letting him take your surname. After all, he has half the blood of your Zhou family in his veins," Xu Heming said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingshi felt even more depressed.
At this moment, he no longer wanted to stay and listen to what Xu Heming and Zhou Changfeng had to say.
He quickly fled the area.
Li Zhiwei was worried that something might have happened to Xu Qingshi, so she quickly followed him.
"Qingshi, don't be sad. Your father may have some difficulties." Li Zhiwei felt a little sorry for Xu Qingshi when she saw his little shoulders trembling, so she quickly said some comforting words.
"Stop pretending to be a good person in front of me." Xu Qingshi looked at Li Zhiwei angrily.
She was heartbroken. He loved her so much and always protected her, but now, her father wanted to send her away because of her.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiwei's heart sank.
Even if she wanted to say that this had nothing to do with her, Xu Qingshi wouldn't believe her, right?
Thinking about this, Li Zhiwei herself felt that she was not innocent.
“Qingshi, there must be some misunderstanding here. Your father must have a reason for saying that. Please don’t be anxious.” Li Zhiwei thought for a moment. Xu Heming was not the kind of irresponsible father. Besides, Xu Qingshi was the heir of the Prince of An’s Mansion. How could he really send him to the Zhou family?
“He said it himself!” Xu Qingshi said sadly.
“Qingshi, sometimes, the lord has no choice but to do things his way. What he says may not be what he really wants you to do.” Li Zhiwei didn’t know how to explain to Xu Qingshi that the lord was sometimes helpless.
"Are you trying to lie to me too? I know that if Father marries you, you'll have other children." Xu Qingshi said, his voice trembling with emotion. He hadn't ignored what the others were saying.
However, he always believed that Li Zhiwei was genuinely protecting him. After all, back at the academy, if it weren't for Li Zhiwei, he would definitely have been injured.
But now, her father wants her to go to the Zhou family, which he hates the most, because of her.
