Chapter 281 Do you want something to happen to me?
The title of First-Rank Imperial Lady was highly prestigious; even ordinary officials would bow to her, and Zhao Yuanqi was no exception.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuanqi's expression changed. He stared intently at Xie Qingran and said, "So, this is what you wanted, this is why you married him, is that it? Xie Qingran, when did you become so pathetic?"
"Does marrying Xiao Jue and becoming a first-rank imperial consort mean I'm worthless?"
"Alright then, tell me what it means to be successful?"
"Following behind you, sacrificing for you, being a clown in your eyes, does that make me successful?"
Xie Qingran retorted coldly.
Xie Qingran had endured far too much of this sarcastic and sarcastic tone, and now she didn't want to hear it anymore, so she chose to flip the table and stop enduring it!
Perhaps, in her previous life, Xie Qingran was indeed a very cowardly person. Before doing anything, she would always consider other people's feelings, whether they were happy or unhappy, and put her own feelings last.
But now, Xie Qingran has figured it out: the most important thing in life is to love yourself first; otherwise, you're just giving others the opportunity to ruin you.
Zhao Yuanqi never expected that Xie Qingran, who had always been very kind to him, would say such a thing to his face.
He took a deep breath, completely baffled as to where Xie Qingran's anger came from.
"Have we not been good enough to you since you were a child?"
"Xie Qingran, I know even if you don't say it, you've always been bothered by Xie Hanyue, you've always been competing with Yue'er, haven't you?"
Zhao Yuanqi frowned at Xie Qingran, clearly displeased.
It's happening again!
Whether in the past or present, whether in past life or this life, as long as the two of them are put together, everyone will unconditionally favor Xie Hanyue!
In her previous life, Xie Qingran was completely baffled by this matter, but in this life, she simply wouldn't consider it anymore.
With a cold face, she pointed to the door: "You like Xie Hanyue, feel sorry for Xie Hanyue, and are willing to be with Xie Hanyue, that's fine, but this is the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, there is no Xie Hanyue here, get out!"
"Tell me to get out!"
Zhao Yuanqi stepped forward and grabbed Xie Qingran's hair.
"How dare you tell me to get out?"
"Xie Qingran, it seems I've been too lenient with you!"
Looking at his ferocious and perverted expression, Xie Qingran immediately thought of the torment she had suffered in her previous life.
Almost instinctively, she pulled out the hairpin from her hair and stabbed it hard into the back of his hand.
"Xie Qingran!"
Zhao Yuanqi winced in pain and almost instinctively released Xie Qingran.
"Are you crazy?"
Xie Qingran had really gone mad. She quickly stepped back and curled up in the chair, trembling.
"Guards! Guards!"
"Get him out of here! Get him out of here!"
Xie Qingran screamed outside, and the maids and servants rushed out, only to be stunned by what they saw.
Baozhu was the first to react and hurriedly pushed Zhao Yuanqi out.
Zhao Yuanqi was initially furious, but he was taken aback when he met Xie Qingran's terrified eyes, especially when he saw her trembling.
He didn't understand why Xie Qingran was so afraid of his touch. Why?
"General Zhao, our lady has said that you are not allowed to visit us casually from now on!"
"Please, young general, show some respect!"
Baozhu stood guard at the door, looking at Zhao Yuanqi with displeasure.
Zhao Yuanqi was always surrounded by admirers wherever he went. When had he ever been treated so disrespectfully by a little girl?
His face darkened: "How dare you! Your wife and I are childhood sweethearts..."
"Please be careful with your words, young general. My wife is already married, so please be careful with your words in the future, so as not to tarnish the reputation of my wife and the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion."
After saying that, Baozhu did not hesitate at all, turned around and walked into the courtyard, and asked someone to close the door.
This was the first time Zhao Yuanqi had been turned away by Xie Qingran.
Looking at the tightly closed door, Zhao Yuanqi clenched his fists, his face terribly gloomy.
Three days later, at the city gate.
Xie Hanyue stepped down from the carriage and looked at the city gate of the capital in front of her, her face full of joy.
"I'm back! I'm really back! I'm finally back! It's been such a long and difficult journey!"
As Xie Hanyue spoke, tears began to fall.
Looking at Xie Hanyue like this, Lu Jinzhi's eyes were now filled with nothing but disgust and annoyance.
Ling'er's eyes darted around, then she quickly snuggled into Lu Jinzhi's arms and said cautiously, "Daddy, I'm a little scared. Are we really home? Are we really back?"
Xie Hanyue was still immersed in the joy of returning to the capital, but after hearing these words, her face turned very ugly. She pulled Ling'er out of Lu Jinzhi's arms and slapped her hard twice without any regard for the consequences.
"You little bitch, you're already acting crazy before we're even home yet, aren't you?"
Ling'er was slapped twice and immediately burst into tears, but she pretended not to dare to cry out loud, instead just curling up in the corner and trembling.
"Xie Hanyue, what exactly are you trying to do?"
"Ling'er is just a child, why are you being so harsh?"
"Look at you now, you're absolutely an eyesore!"
Lu Jinzhi angrily picked up the child and began to scold Xie Hanyue.
Just then, the voices of Lord Lu and Madam Lu rang out from outside. Lu Jinzhi did not continue to argue with her, but simply got out of the car with the child in his arms!
Xie Hanyue's face turned pale with anger. She turned to look at her maid Yun'er and pinched her hard!
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and help me down!"
Yun'er clearly didn't dare to say anything more, and could only help the person down.
The Lu couple were overjoyed to see their son, but their expressions changed when their eyes fell on Xie Hanyue, clearly showing displeasure and disdain.
However, they knew they couldn't make too much of a scene in public, so they simply waved their hands and told them to get in the car and go home first.
On the city gate tower, Xie Qingran stood there quietly, silently watching the people below.
After hearing the news, Xie Zhaoye came over, not to see Xie Hanyue, but to see Xie Qingran.
Seeing Xie Qingran's expressionless face, Xie Zhaoye had no idea what she was thinking, so he could only cautiously walk to her side and look at her expectantly: "Qingran, are you alright?"
Do you want something to happen to me?
