Chapter 327 Delay
When Li Congxiao left in a panic, he saw Qin Huiyin standing under a tree. Her expression froze, and then she left without changing her expression.
His leg injury had not healed yet, and he still limped when he walked. He wanted to leave quickly, and his steps were very chaotic, revealing that he was not as calm as he appeared.
Qin Huiyin entered the room and saw Xia Ruwan lying there with a blushing face, not knowing what she was thinking. Seeing her come back, her eyes became even more evasive.
"Did you give him the things?"
"I gave it to you." Qin Huiyin came over. "I just saw Young Master Li. You two didn't quarrel again. I saw he left in a hurry."
Xia Ruwan's cheeks turned even redder.
"He saved me, why should I argue with him? What's there to argue about? I wanted to argue, but then I thought about his kindness and let him go." Xia Ruwan said.
"Speaking of which, Young Master Li's family is also married to the Rong family." Qin Huiyin said, "You saved his fiancée!"
Xia Ruwan frowned: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about it."
"If you don't cancel this marriage, you will be the daughter-in-law of the Rong family. If he marries a young lady of the Rong family, he will be the son-in-law of the Rong family. If the Rong family has any important holidays, you will have to appear at the banquet at the same time. That scene is really... unimaginably complicated. Fortunately, you canceled the marriage, otherwise you would be blocked for decades to come. Why don't you say anything?"
"Actually, I don't have any grudge against him. Do you remember when he first came to town? We said he was good-looking then."
"Remember."
"If he wasn't from the Li family, we wouldn't hate him so much because of his sister Li Jingyan. After all, Li Jingyan is Li Jingyan, and he doesn't look like Li Jingyan at all."
"It's different now that he's my savior. I've started to think about him." Qin Huiyin said with a smile, "But you're right. Young Master Li is a decent person, and he's indeed different from the Li family. As long as he doesn't interfere with us, we can still be friends."
"Thank you, Yinyin." Xia Ruwan said, "If you hadn't been with me, I wouldn't have been able to get through this so easily."
"Wan'er, look at the people around you. There are many people who need you and love you. Don't get stuck in a dead end, okay? Besides, we still have hope. I will find the medicine that Doctor Wei mentioned, and Aunt Xia will also find it. Let's just offer a high reward. There is strength in numbers. If we can't find it in one day, we will look for it for a month. If we can't find it in one month, we will look for it for a year. We will find it eventually." Qin Huiyin took her hand and said, "Didn't you say before that you didn't want to get married and didn't want to be restricted? Now it's good. Aunt Xia will definitely not force you."
Shuhui came in with some pastries: "Miss Qin, these are freshly baked pastries from the kitchen. Try them and see how they taste."
"Thank you." Qin Huiyin took one, tasted it, and praised it highly, "Sweet but not greasy, delicious."
"Have the people from the Rong family left?" Xia Ruwan asked.
Shuhui first nodded, then shook her head.
"Did he leave or not?" Qin Huiyin was confused by her.
"President Rong and Miss Rong San left, but Young Master Rong Er stayed." Shu Hui said, "Young Master Rong Er said he wanted to stay and take care of Miss Rong and make up for what he owed to Miss Rong. Madam promised to give him a chance and let him stay."
"What chance do you want?" Qin Huiyin wondered, "Didn't Aunt Xia call off the marriage?"
Madam Xia walked in and said, "Not yet."
"Why?" Xia Ruwan asked, "I asked Yinyin to help me return the things I had given him, just to show my attitude. I don't want this marriage. Mother should understand."
"Breaking off the engagement like this is too easy for them." Madam Xia sat down beside Xia Ruwan's bed with her belly bulging, looking at her distressedly, "My daughter has suffered so much and her appearance has been damaged, but the Rong family wants to let it go with just a few words of apology. How can such an easy thing happen in the world? Didn't Rong Er want to stay and make up for it? Then let him make up for it."
"Mom..." Xia Ruwan moved and took a breath.
"Don't move." Madam Xia hurriedly stopped her. "It's my heart that's hurt. If I don't get rid of this anger in my heart, this matter will never end. You don't have to worry about it, just take good care of yourself."
"I just want to end this marriage as soon as possible and end my relationship with the Rong family once and for all."
"If you still don't change your mind after you recover, I will help you deal with it. You haven't even recovered yet, and they want to get away with it. Why? Okay, listen to me."
Xia Ruwan looked at Qin Huiyin helplessly.
Qin Huiyin spread out her hands, looking helpless.
"Mom, your belly is so big now. You should let your subordinates handle the business matters, or let Uncle He take care of it. Your health is the most important thing."
Madam Xia took her hand and rubbed it: "Mother knows, don't worry about my affairs, take good care of your health. Even if mother spends all her wealth, she will find that herb."
Xia Ruwan was almost calmed down, so Qin Huiyin had to go back to the store. Sister Food City was a joint business of two people. Now that one of the owners had gone bankrupt, the other needed to spend more time and energy to manage the business.
Li Taohua and Tang Luwu saw her come back and came over to ask about Xia Ruwan's situation.
"Brother should have told you, right?" Qin Huiyin asked.
"Don't you know your elder brother's temper? He's as tight-lipped as a gourd, and you can't get anything out of him." Li Taohua said, "How is Wan'er?"
Tang Luwu brought tea: "Drink some water first."
"Where is my brother?" Qin Huiyin didn't see Tang Yichen.
"He had a bunch of people to entertain, and he was dragged away today."
"Brother didn't say anything, so I'll start from the beginning!" Qin Huiyin recounted everything that happened between Xia Ruwan and the Rong family.
When she mentioned Li Congxiao, Li Taohua and Tang Luwu were both surprised.
"Master Li actually risked his life to go to the bottom of the cliff to find Wan'er. Could he like Wan'er?" Tang Luwu asked.
Li Taohua touched her cheek, looking thoughtful.
"There is another thing that just happened. Before this incident, I didn't think of it as a love affair between a man and a woman. I just thought he was kind-hearted and would take the initiative to help when he encountered injustice. After what happened today, I think Sister Luwu's guess is right." Qin Huiyin recounted the process of Li Congxiao persuading Xia Ruwan. "In order to persuade Sister Wan'er, he told her about his most embarrassing past and showed her his ugliest appearance. If this kind of relationship is not love between a man and a woman, then there is no true love in this world."
"It's impossible for that kid from the Li family and Wan'er to be together." Li Taohua said, "If he had any thoughts about Wan'er, he wouldn't have told her his shady background so clearly. Isn't he afraid that Wan'er would dislike him? He hasn't thought about these things, which means he hasn't thought about having a future with Wan'er. In addition to the fights in the inner house of the Li family, he needs relatives like the Rong family to lend a hand, so his marriage with Miss Rong San will not be cancelled."
