Chapter 55: What’s the Use of Having a Man?



Shen Ruoyan looked embarrassed. She didn't expect that the slap in the face would come so quickly.

However, Qin Shaobei didn't mind. Instead, a cunning flashed in his eyes, and he pulled Shen Ruoyan to hide behind - eavesdropping!

"cousin?"

When he was forced to squat behind the bamboo forest, Shen Ruoyan was still a little unresponsive.

When he saw Qin Shaobei quietly squeeze open a gap and start to peek, he could no longer hide the shock in his heart!

Is this cousin so gossipy?

"Shh, be low-key when watching a show."

Qin Shaobei was obviously a veteran. Not only did he ask his servants to stay away, he also asked them to guard outside and report any movement in time.

The two inside clearly had no such awareness and were being watched by the crowd, so they had no idea what was happening.

"Why are you following along and causing trouble? You're the concubine of the Marquis's Mansion. In front of outsiders, what excuse do you want to use to take care of Brother Kang?"

The manor of the marquis is not a deserted place.

There were more than a dozen people just taking care of the manor. Adding those who were later assigned to serve Lu Ankang, there were already dozens of people!

There are so many people there, why would the concubine of the Marquis go there?

Wouldn’t those people become suspicious?

For Lu Ankang, the lower his profile, the safer it was. Prince Shun's Mansion was not to be underestimated. If they knew that Lu Ankang was not dead, they would probably make his fake death come true!

At this critical moment, couldn't Fang Rou just be patient and not get involved and cause more trouble?

Lu Jing showed rare patience and explained everything to Fang Rou in detail, fearing that she wouldn't understand and would do something irrational.

In the past, Lu Jing thought Fang Rou was the person who understood him best in the world. He and Fang Rou were like soulmates, unlike anyone else in the world.

But now, he was a little afraid of Fang Rou.

"My Lord, can you give up your status as a concubine and let me be a maid?"

Fang Rou had already made up her mind before she came. Even if she had to become a slave, she wanted to stay with her son.

Shen Ruoyan sighed inwardly, how pitiful are the parents in the world!

However, I don't know if her grown-up son will buy it...

"You have already entered the Marquis' Mansion, so you belong to my Mansion. Even if you are a concubine, do you think you can just say no to it?"

Lu Jing suddenly felt that Fang Rou really had no sense of the overall situation.

She used to be spoiled and willful, thinking she was innocent and cute. But now that she has a son, why can't she be more sensible?

You've already entered the Marquis' Mansion, why don't you clearly understand your own position?

Can she be the concubine whenever she wants or not?

When the time comes, how will he explain it to his grandmother? How will he explain it to Shen Ruoyan?

Lu Jing's eyes gradually became dissatisfied. Fang Rou really didn't consider the situation from his perspective.

"But Lord, Brother Kang is still so young, without his parents by his side, how pitiful he must be!"

Even if there are servants, can a young master of a marquisate who is hidden on a farm really expect them to do their best?

That was the child she had carried for ten months. Even if everyone in the world thought he was not good, in Fang Rou's heart, he was the best.

She was the only one who was truly worried about Lu Ankang.

"He committed a heinous crime, and it's a blessing that he was able to save his life. As his mother, you may not have taught him well, but please don't hold him back at this time."

Lu Jing stroked his chin and pondered, "If you ask me, I'd take this opportunity to let Brother Kang reflect on himself. Otherwise, when he comes back, he won't be so ignorant and continue to cause trouble!"

After all, he is his future heir, so Lu Jing still cares about Lu Ankang.

However, he wanted to cultivate an heir rather than a son, so he could use the opportunity to temper Lu Ankang's temper at the manor, killing two birds with one stone.

A loving mother often spoils her child. Fang Rou dotes him too much. It’s better for them to separate.

Unfortunately, Fang Rou could not appreciate his painstaking efforts.

After the identity of the concubine's son was exposed, Fang Rou knew that she could no longer keep her son.

So she would rather not be a concubine and want to go with her son!

But why not agree?!

"Rou'er, we are no longer the same as before. You must always remember your identity and do what you should do. This is what is truly good for Brother Kang."

"When Brother Kang comes back, I will naturally find an opportunity to reunite you and your son."

Lu Jing's words were so high-sounding that even Shen Ruoyan felt sick after hearing them.

But Fang Rou did not make any noise or fuss, and even stopped crying.

She exuded a dead smell and looked as if she had aged ten years.

If the previous Fang Rou saw Lu Jing, her whole body would glow.

Now, her light is out.

It's completely extinguished and will never light up again!

"My Lord, I understand."

Seeing her like this, Lu Jing felt a little sorry for her. But thinking about the recent bad things, he became cold and hard again.

"As long as you understand, my lady's cousin is staying here temporarily. You should behave yourself and don't provoke her. Especially my lady, it's okay to suffer some injustice temporarily. I will compensate you later."

Qin Shaobei was someone he didn't even want to offend, let alone a former mistress?

When saying these words, Lu Jing was sincere and felt that he was truly considering Fang Rou so that she wouldn't get into trouble again.

Unexpectedly, Fang Rou just smiled contemptuously, "Don't worry, my lord, I won't overestimate my abilities. After all, the lady has her cousin's support, and I have nothing."
