Chapter 66 has changed
At the same time, Qin Xiu quickly grabbed Xun Chen's wrist, stood in front of Jiang Qingning, and looked at him coldly.
"Didn't you see, she doesn't want you to touch her?"
"What does Prince Qin mean by this? This is a private matter between me and Jiang Qingning. Could it be that Prince Qin wants to get involved too?"
Xun Chen's face was extremely gloomy, and he wished he could get rid of the person in front of him as soon as possible.
He never thought that he and Jiang Qingning had been divorced for just over a month and Qin Xiu had already stolen his home.
The powerful and noble who appear to be so glorious and bright on the outside are actually so sinister and treacherous behind the scenes!
Qin Xiu refused to back down and increased the force of his palm without hesitation.
Xun Chen felt a huge pain in his wrist, which made him extremely frightened.
How powerful is Qin Xiu that he can make even a general unable to break free?
Xun Chen didn't dare to think about the true strength hidden behind Qin Xiu. No wonder this man was able to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy.
He once thought that it was just the Qin Mansion's boasting about him, and that the emperor sent him to the battlefield to gild himself because he was the imperial concubine's younger brother.
Now it seems that the children of powerful and wealthy people whom he once despised the most have now climbed to such a position. This is probably all due to Qin Xiu's true strength.
This was unacceptable to the proud Xun Chen, and he felt a strong sense of disappointment in his heart.
"I told you, didn't you see she didn't want to? Besides, you're just strangers who divorced a long time ago. Why would you have any personal matters to resolve?"
Qin Xiu's dark eyes were deep, and a strong pressure was released from his eyes, which caused cold sweat to appear on Xun Chen's forehead. He was actually frozen in place for a long time.
"Master Qin is right. Lord Anping and I have no personal matters to discuss. If Lord Anping needs anything in the future, please send a servant from the mansion to deliver a visiting card."
"Otherwise, if the door of Ning Pavilion is closed, I don't want to see you, and it will only make Earl Anping make this trip in vain."
Jiang Qingning walked to Qin Xiu's side, looked at Xun Chen indifferently, and told the truth from the bottom of his heart.
Xun Chen's back was filled with shock.
He looked at Jiang Qingning in surprise, "Jiang Qingning, are you so cruel that you want to completely cut off all ties with me?"
Jiang Qingning raised his eyes and said, "You are wrong. Since the day of our divorce, I have severed all ties with you. There is no question of whether I miss you now or not."
"There's no relationship between us anymore."
Xun Chen felt a sudden pain in his heart, and he whispered, "Even if Mother wanted to marry me a second wife, you wouldn't care?"
Jiang Qingning answered firmly: "That's right."
"Even if Mo Li cried and shouted for his mother, even if he was sick and wanted to see you, you are unwilling to see him again?"
"That's right, so from now on, you don't have to come to me about Qiqi's affairs."
"You've married a step-wife, and Mo Li is her child. The principles I teach him in the end are entirely up to him to comprehend."
"As a mother, I've done enough teaching."
Well done, enough has been done.
Xun Chen gritted his teeth. In his heart, as long as Xun Moli was Jiang Qingning's son, he would always be Jiang Qingning's child.
The two people cannot be separated in this life, and Jiang Qingning cannot escape from his side and control.
Xun Chen was burning with anger at this moment, and his self-esteem was torn apart by the indifference and disgust in Jiang Qingning's eyes.
He raised his hand and yanked off the jade pendant hanging around his waist. With a slight force from his palm, a shattering sound was heard, piercing Jiang Qingning's eardrum.
"Xun Chen, are you crazy? Did this jade pendant provoke you?"
Jiang Qingning frowned slightly, and his hands under his cloak unconsciously clenched slightly, and he actually felt a sense of relief as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.
"Jiang Qingning, you have such a cruel heart!"
Xun Chen opened his palm and saw that the jade pendant with the blue phoenix holding a zhi that he had worn for many years had now turned into a few dull pieces of debris, scattered in a mess on the cold and hard stone steps.
Jiang Qingning sneered: "I have a cruel heart? Xun Chen, it's you who betrayed me. When I, Jiang Qingning, was a wife of the Xun family, I never did anything to let you down."
He stared at her intently, the storm in his eyes almost swallowing her up, but his voice was like grinding out from between his teeth, with a hoarseness on the verge of collapse:
"Jiang Qingning... you're so cruel. You even abandoned Mo Li, even Mo Li! Today I finally see through you!"
"You should have realized this long ago." Jiang Qingning stood with his back straight, like a bamboo that would never bend in the wind and snow.
The sound of the jade pendant shattering just now made her heart feel like it was pierced by an invisible needle.
It was a testimony to her girlish feelings, the true heart she had once given away, but now it was shattered by its owner's own hands.
However, the pain only lasted for a short moment before it was covered by an even more violent cold.
Jiang Qingning did not lower her head to look at the fragments. Her eyes calmly swept across Xun Chen's face distorted by anger, and the panic that flashed in his eyes, which seemed so ridiculous to her.
For many days and nights, she would toss and turn because of the indifference on this face.
But now, Xun Chen's appearance did not stir up any ripples in her heart.
"Mr. Anping is wrong." Her voice was steady without a ripple, like the surface of a lake covered with thin ice in late autumn.
"How can you even begin to talk about the word 'abandon'? Mo Li is the eldest grandson of the Xun family.
He is well cared for by his grandmother, father, and the second wife you will marry soon, Earl of Anping."
"I'm just an outsider who's been out for a long time. How can I talk about 'abandonment'? If you have nothing else to do, please return. Don't lose your composure and make others laugh in front of Ning Pavilion."
"Property? A laughing stock?"
Xun Chen seemed to be completely driven crazy by the coldness in her words. He took a step forward and glared at her, "Jiang Qingning, is your heart made of stone?
"That's your son and mine, he has your blood flowing through him, can you really...really abandon him to a woman whose background you don't know? Do you really not care about him at all?"
His roar echoed here, with a hysterical sadness that was particularly ridiculous.
Until this moment, Xun Chen deeply regretted his actions.
He regretted being so impulsive just now and destroying the only remaining connection between the two of them.
As a couple for many years, Jiang Qingning naturally understood what he meant very well.
She immediately took a step back to avoid suspicion and said coldly, "Xun Chen, don't get entangled. It will be too late to regret it."
So what if Xun Chen regrets it?
Over the years, she had never done anything wrong to the Anping Marquisate, nor to Xun Chen and his son. All of this was their own fault.
If she wasn't concerned about her image, she would really want to say: Tsk, don't get close to me.
Xun Chen couldn't understand.
How could Jiang Qingning, who would stay up all night just because of a cough from Mo Li and would shed tears of joy for his little concern, become the cold and hard woman in front of her whose words were as sharp as knives?
At this moment, an unyielding force landed firmly on Jiang Qingning's thin shoulders.
Qin Xiu's tall figure silently took a step forward, completely blocking her behind him and blocking Xun Chen's almost cannibalistic gaze.
