Qi Xiuzhe looked normal, but his body suddenly felt hot.
Subconsciously, his hands wanted to hold her tightly.
But when Qin Wu reacted, she only felt nauseous. She steadied herself as quickly as possible and sat up straight.
Keep the original distance from him.
"The carriage was shaking just now and I didn't sit firmly." Qin Wu explained in a cold voice, so that he would not misunderstand that she did it on purpose.
But Qi Xiuzhe still didn't believe it.
Before Qin Wu married him, whenever she did something wrong or made him angry, she would always be a little scheming and create all kinds of small emergencies, taking the opportunity to hug him and then reveal a pitiful expression.
He would then be soft-hearted and would coax her and forgive her.
Qi Xiuzhe thought that she was trying to be friendly and was just playing hard to get.
"The rumors about Nuannuan and I have been resolved. I promise you that I will try to meet her less often in the future." He said to Qin Wu, "As long as you don't make things difficult for her, I will treat you well."
...
...
Qin Wu's starry eyes were filled with sarcasm, "Prince Qi, don't you even dare to admit who you truly love?"
"Qin Wu, you still don't believe me?"
"Then tell me you love me?" Qin Wu asked sarcastically.
"What's the point of Qin Wu saying love or not? Aren't you my wife now?"
Qin Wu knew he would answer like this.
Love or not is meaningless? Why be together if you don't love each other?
It's just that the time has not come yet. She is not in such a bad state that he can divorce her. Divorcing her or he really divorces her impulsively will only damage his reputation.
He wanted her to clarify the matter between him, Qin Yinnuan and him, wasn't it to protect Qin Yinnuan and his reputation, so that he could establish his image as a gentleman? No matter how bad her reputation was, he would still tolerate her because of the friendship they had since childhood.
When she is completely hated and cursed by the people of the world, that will be the time for her to be kicked out.
She had seen through him.
Of course, whether he loved her or not was of no significance to her. Asking him was just to tear apart his hypocrisy.
"No need to say more. If you really want to marry Qin Yinnuan, I will divorce you immediately and fulfill your wish. I will never bother you again."
"You." Qi Xiuzhe was speechless for a moment after being blocked by Qin Wu's words. He turned around and thought that no matter she was protecting the guard or talking about divorce, her ultimate goal was just to make him compromise and care about her more.
She is smart and knows how to play hard to get.
But she still had to treat her coldly first and let her know that if she continued to target Nuannuan, even if she threatened him with divorce, it would only backfire.
Meet Qin Xiang.
Qi Xiuzhe took the initiative to pull Qin Wu and kneel in front of Prime Minister Qin to admit his mistake.
He sincerely said that it was because his family did not discipline their children strictly and the servants had inappropriate thoughts, which led to such effects.
"Father-in-law, this is my fault and my problem. I have no opinion or complaint about how you deal with me."
"I didn't expect things to develop to this point."
"As long as Qin Wu says that I was the one who brought the frightened Yin Nuan back to the Qi family that day, we can stop everyone from spreading rumors about Yin Nuan."
Qin Wu remained expressionless as she listened to Qi Xiuzhe finish speaking.
Prime Minister Qin sat on a high seat, staring at Qin Wu and the other person, his cold eyes sharp and captivating.
He did not respond to Qi Xiuzhe, but spoke to Qin Wu in a cold and oppressive tone.
"Qin Wu, you have been in the Qin family for more than ten years. The Qin family has been very kind to you!"
"Father, just say what you want to say." Qin Wu was not overwhelmed by Qin Xiang's aura. She straightened her body and looked directly at Qin Xiang.
She used to respect and love him, but after what happened in her previous life, she knew that people who were of no use to her could be completely abandoned.
Her current role is to maintain the connection between the Qin and Qi families. Once she divorces Qi Xiuzhe and embarrasses him, he will kick her out of the house without hesitation.
She had already made plans for the worst, and she was not afraid of being kicked out of the house, so naturally she had nothing to fear.
"Did you ask people to spread rumors that Yin Nuan's innocence was tarnished by Prince Qi, thus damaging her reputation?" Prime Minister Qin's eyes were terrifyingly dark, as if he wanted to see through Qin Wu.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"Father." Qin Yinnuan, who was sitting next to me, immediately came to Qin Wu's defense. "Qin Wu wouldn't do that. The last thing she wants to see is a scandal between me and Brother Xiuzhe. How could she allow someone to make up such a rumor?"
Qin Suhu crossed his arms and said to Qin Yinnuan, "Xiao Nuan, you are too naive. She has framed you so many times. There is nothing she can't do."
Qin Sujin still had stomach pain and did not show up.
But Qin Sumu came. His face was very pale and ugly, but he spoke and just kept looking at Qin Wu.
He knew very well that there must be a reason why his father asked Qin Wu this.
Qin Wu was not at all frightened. She admitted directly, "I just added fuel to the fire."
"It's true, isn't it?"
She asked Qiu Shuang to find someone to spread the news. She had long expected that with Prime Minister Qin's means, he would be able to quickly find out who was behind the scenes and fanning the flames.
In fact, Qiu Shuang should have been caught by Qin Xiang when she found someone to spread the news, so there was no point in quibbling, she just admitted it.
What's more, this is one of her goals.
Seeing that she was still acting righteous, Prime Minister Qin picked up the water in the teacup and poured it directly on Qin Wu.
Qin Wu quickly turned her head and the tea splashed onto her upper body, turning the skin on her neck red from the hot tea.
But Qin Wu didn't even cry out in pain.
Everyone present held their breath.
What shocked everyone present was that Qin Wu actually admitted it directly without even making any excuses or explanations.
"You deserve it. It's all your own fault!" Qin Suhu sneered.
If she didn't acknowledge him as her fourth brother, he would definitely not help her.
Her father turned a blind eye to all the shameful things she did to hurt Xiao Nuan in the past, but now that her father has taken action, she will definitely suffer the consequences.
Qin Sumu frowned, but he still couldn't bear it, and said to her, "Xiao Wu, do you know what the consequences of your answer will be?"
Qi Xiuzhe, who was kneeling beside her, did not have any pity at all. Instead, he was even more angry and looked at Qin Wu with some disgust.
His previous questioning of her was just his guess, but he didn't expect that she really did it!
Not only was she crazy, she also dragged him and Nuannuan into embarrassment and was criticized by others. She was really becoming more and more vicious!
Qin Yinnuan raised her eyebrows, thinking that Qin Wu was smart.
She even suspected that Qin Wu might be a time traveler like her, with a different core.
Then she can't take her lightly!
Fortunately, when Prime Minister Qin questioned her, she first asked Prime Minister Qin to investigate whether someone was plotting against her behind her back.
Then he immediately found someone to identify Qin Wu as the mastermind behind the incident.
"Qin Wu, you disappoint me so much!"
If Qin Wu dared to deny it, Qin Xiang might not just throw a glass of water at her, but smash it on her.
In the past, it was Mrs. Qin who took care of the affairs of the mansion and the children, and he never had to worry about them.
Under the guidance of his wife, all the children are excellent except Qin Su who is the most rebellious.
Qin Luan didn't have much affection for Qin Wu, but after all, the purpose of raising her was to make his wife feel better, and she did make his wife's health and mood better.
He didn't take the fact that Qin Wu was just jealous to heart.
But she was still unscrupulous and went further and further against Qin Yinnuan. He had also warned her not to have any inappropriate thoughts.
She was good and disobedient. Now she has done this dirty thing, which not only damages Qin Yinnuan's reputation, but also makes him be laughed at by those vulgar old men.
He was no longer just disappointed with Qin Wu! I even regretted adopting her!
"Just because you are jealous, you dare to use the Qin family's reputation to plot. Has the etiquette that my wife taught you, which is knowledgeable, sensible and broad-minded, been eaten up by a dog?"
"You think you're right, don't you?"
"Also, Yin Nuan is my biological daughter. If you want to compete with her for her, you should first consider your own status and whether you are worthy of her."
