Chapter 181 He just doesn't love this daughter.
Zhou Huai'an stared intently at Gu Xiangyuan.
Gu Xiangyuan already liked Zhou Huai'an, and now, faced with such a fervent gaze and confession, she was completely powerless to resist. She could only silently accept the calligraphy and then turn around and leave quickly.
Seeing her leave shyly, Xie Qingran knew her chance had come, and she immediately followed after her.
"Third Miss, wait for me!"
Xie Qingran was injured and could not move quickly, so she could only call out to Gu Xiangyuan.
The moment Gu Xiangyuan stopped and turned around, her face turned as red as a ripe peach.
Seeing her shy and happy expression, Xie Qingran smiled helplessly: "Have you ever considered that your parents might not be willing for you to marry him?"
"I know you mean to say that the royal family is mixed up, but that's not appropriate, right?"
"But the person I like likes me too, Qingran, do you know how rare this is?"
Gu Xiangyuan looked at Xie Qingran with her eyes crinkling.
Whether her family agrees or disagrees is not the issue at all. She knows very well how much her family dotes on her, so she believes that this matter will eventually work out.
Seeing Gu Xiangyuan like this, Xie Qingran said helplessly, "Have you ever thought about how you'll live with someone like the Imperial Concubine as your mother-in-law? Besides, what will you do if Zhou Huai'an is no longer the Sixth Prince one day?"
"Qingran, what do you mean by that?" Gu Xiangyuan looked at her in confusion: "What do you mean he's not the sixth prince anymore? Isn't he the sixth prince?"
There were some things Xie Qingran didn't know how to say. She could only sigh helplessly and then say, "What I mean is, what if one day he's no longer the same?"
"It doesn't matter whether he's the sixth prince or not. Even if he's no longer the sixth prince, he's still Zhou Huai'an!"
Gu Xiangyuan firmly expressed her feelings.
In both her past and present lives, Xie Qingran had never had such thoughts and feelings, so she could not understand Gu Xiangyuan's persistence.
She took a deep breath: "Is it absolutely necessary to have him?"
"If you truly love someone, it has to be him!"
"Look, didn't you also choose Xiao Jue?"
"Besides you, no one else thinks Xiao Jue is a good match."
Gu Xiangyuan originally thought it was fine if others didn't understand her, but she never expected that even Xie Qingran didn't understand her.
How can these be the same?
Looking at Gu Xiangyuan like this, Xie Qingran couldn't say anything for a moment. She just gently touched her face with a hint of guilt: "Third Miss, you are a good girl with a pure heart. I really hope you will be better. I'm afraid that you will choose the wrong path and suffer losses."
"I won't be at a disadvantage." Gu Xiangyuan took out the paper and handed it to Xie Qingran: "He loves me!"
Now Xie Qingran understood that even with her silver tongue, she couldn't change the situation in the slightest.
Left with no other choice, Xie Qingran could only silently return the paper, patting her on the shoulder: 'Well... I wish you happiness!'
"Thank you!" Gu Xiangyuan hugged Xie Qingran happily. "Qingran, I'm so happy that you can bless me."
"ah!"
Xie Qingran couldn't hold back any longer and screamed.
Immediately afterwards, she was in so much pain that she couldn't stand up and collapsed to the ground. The wound on her chest tore open, and blood slowly seeped out, soaking her clothes.
"What... what's wrong with you?"
"Are you bleeding?"
"you?"
Gu Xiangyuan looked down and saw the bright red stain on her chest, and immediately screamed in fright.
Xie Qingran gripped her hand tightly and shook her head: "Don't shout."
Before she could finish speaking, Xie Qingran had already completely fainted.
"Someone come quick! Someone come!"
Gu Xiangyuan was terrified and screamed loudly.
Xie Zhaoye happened to be nearby. Hearing the sound, he quickly walked over. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Xie Qingran like this, but then he quickly reacted, took off his cloak, wrapped her up, picked her up, and walked quickly into the cabin.
"Go and fetch my mother!"
He turned around and gritted his teeth, giving an order.
When Xie Qingran slowly woke up, she saw Wang Shi and Xie Zhaoye anxiously beside her.
What happened to your chest?
"How did you get injured?"
Wang held Xie Qingran's hand, looking at her with a face full of heartache.
"It's nothing, I bumped into it by accident."
Xie Qingran silently withdrew her hand, still replying coldly.
"Bullshit, do you think we're idiots? Do you think you could have run into that yourself?"
"I'm asking you, did Xiao Jue abuse you and bully you?"
"Tell me, and I'll stand up for you!"
Xie Zhaoye strode forward, staring fiercely at Xie Qingran as if he wanted to devour her alive.
"No, I just bumped into it by accident."
"It's nothing serious, it will be fine after applying the medicine."
Xie Qingran didn't even glance at him, turning her face away, remaining as indifferent as a stranger.
Xie Zhaoye couldn't stand Xie Qingran's icy demeanor. He angrily spun around on the ground, then irritably tugged at his hair.
"Xie Qingran, look at your attitude! What's wrong? We're just concerned about you!"
"I'm your own brother, don't I deserve a kind look from you?"
Xie Zhaoye, still angry, leaned forward again, wanting to get a closer look at Xie Qingran's expression to see what was going on.
But Xie Qingran sneered disdainfully, "You're not my brother!"
"What did you say?!" Xie Zhaoye was truly exasperated this time!
Although he didn't particularly like this younger sister, he knew in his heart that she was his only biological sister!
But now, she is denying the blood relationship between the two of them, saying that he is not her brother!
"Xie Qingran, don't think I really wouldn't dare to beat you up!"
"Let me tell you, I am your brother, your own brother! No one can change that!"
"Get out!"
Wang Shi could no longer tolerate Xie Zhaoye's arrogant behavior. With a roar, she drove him away.
Now, only the mother and daughter were left in the cabin. Madam Wang became anxious and grabbed Xie Qingran's hand: "Is it because the young master has mistreated you, tormented you, or abused you? Tell me. If that's really the case, we'll get a divorce. Come home and we'll take care of you for the rest of your life!"
"Can you support me for the rest of my life?"
"Can the Xie family support me for the rest of my life?"
Xie Qingran gave a disdainful snort!
Wang clenched her fists: "It doesn't matter whether the Xie family supports you or not, I can support you for the rest of your life on my own!"
If she had said something like that once in her past life, Xie Qingran wouldn't have ended up like that.
For Xie Qingran, this belated love was less like salvation and more like a slow, agonizing death.
It turns out that she wasn't incapable of being a mother; she simply didn't love her daughter.
