After a series of blows, she fell seriously ill. Qin Su'an himself was insane, so how could he take care of her? After lingering on the sickbed for half a year, Wei also passed away.
Qin Su'an returned to the state of being alone again.
Later, Liu Yuner was released from prison. Seeing this tragic scene, she wanted to leave, but she didn't dare.
While in prison, she received a signal from Xie Wanyun, asking her to move with Qin Su'an to a farm on the outskirts of the city, and that she would send them living expenses on time. Otherwise, Xie Wanyun would have plenty of ways to deal with her.
Liu Yun'er was so frightened after her imprisonment that she dared not disobey in the slightest and had to do as she was told.
Xie Wanyun did this not because she had forgotten the hatred in her previous life and was merciful, but because she was considering Quan Ge'er's name. After all, these two were his biological parents. If Quan Ge'er came back one day and saw his parents like this, he would be sad.
Xie Wanyun put all her energy into running her business, waiting wholeheartedly for her children to return home soon. When they returned, she would hand over the business empire she had built to them.
Five years had passed, and the children had all grown up. Xie Wanyun had painted many portraits of herself, and in moments of quiet time, she would gaze upon them in reverie.
That day, she had just finished a violet-white portrait of a young man with an upright figure, fine eyebrows, handsome eyes, and a spirited look.
"Jinbai, today is your birthday. Before I knew it, you're already fifteen years old. But the time I've been with you hasn't even been a year. Are you doing well in Mobei? Has the cold come back? I miss you so much. How about you? Do you miss me?"
Xie Wanyun stared at the portrait and muttered to himself.
"Madam." Yuzhui quietly walked to her side and called out.
"What's the matter?" Xie Wanyun didn't turn around.
"Madam, today is Young Master Jinbai's birthday. Lord Yan has sent many gifts as usual. Madam, should we send them directly to the warehouse like in previous years, or..."
Xie Wanyun remained silent.
Yuzhui sighed quietly and tiptoed out.
"Wait, where is the thing? Take me to see it." Xie Wanyun suddenly said.
"Hey! In the yard! Madam, please follow me." Yuzhui happily agreed. After five years, Madam finally agreed to respond to Lord Yan.
In the past five years, Yan Suizhi would send many gifts on every festival and her and Jin Bai's birthday, but Xie Wanyun never even looked at them and would just throw them into the warehouse, leaving them to gather dust.
The person who delivered the gift to the Yan Mansion had not left yet and was waiting for a reply in the courtyard.
Xie Wanyun's cold eyes swept over the gifts.
"I pay my respects to Madam Xie!"
"Qingshu? Why are you here?" Xie Wanyun raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Qingshu stepped forward and bowed, "Since my lord is worried, please let me come with you to take a look."
He carefully observed Xie Wanyun's expression, which remained calm and composed, with no emotion whatsoever.
I couldn't help but sigh quietly. My Lord and Madam Xie were a perfect match, and they had such an outstanding son. What a wonderful family they were, how could it have fallen apart?
It's really fate that makes people jealous of good marriages.
Xie Wanyun's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he said calmly, "Put them all away. You've worked hard." He gestured to Yuzhui to give the red envelope.
Qingshu shook his hands repeatedly, "Madam, you are too polite. I dare not accept it. If you have nothing else to do, I will go back. Your Excellency is still waiting for my reply."
Xie Wanyun nodded. After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "Go back and tell your master that you don't need to send me any more gifts. I have everything I need."
Qingshu responded respectfully.
Xie Wanyun knew he wouldn't tell her, but she couldn't help but tell her. She had no way to deal with that stubborn man.
Five years had passed, and the hatred in her heart had long since faded with the passage of time. She also gradually understood Yan Suizhi's helplessness, forgave his inferiority and cowardice back then, and understood that on that day in the court, he had no way out.
But she still couldn't let go of the obsession in her heart and couldn't cross that threshold.
