Qin Rumeng gave Huangfu Yueli a brutal beating, and Qiu Ruoxi was completely convinced, given Qin Rumeng’s personality, she really could do such a thing.

"Later, my sister found out and scolded me severely." Qin Rumeng said with a bitter smile: "But at the time, I didn’t think it mattered, anyway, I vented my anger, so any scolding didn’t bother me."

"Aunt, what did she do to betray my mother-in-law that made you react so strongly?" Qiu Ruoxi asked cautiously.

That’s what Qiu Ruoxi wanted to know, but Qin Rumeng glossed over it.

Qin Rumeng glanced at Qiu Ruoxi: "I thought you, the ice sculpture beauty, wouldn’t be interested in gossip. Turns out you’re not immune to convention!"

"Aunt, I..."

"It’s alright to tell you, but don’t spread it!" Qin Rumeng whispered: "Back then, my sister acquired something, I don’t know the specifics!"

"But somehow Huangfu Yueli saw it, and I don’t know who bribed her, causing Huangfu Yueli to tell someone, and since then, my sister has never had peace. Every day strange people would appear, always asking odd questions!"

"Once, for some reason, my sister didn’t come home but sought me out, and her chest was covered in blood. Seeing that, I was terrified and wanted to take my sister to the hospital, but she refused, told me not to tell anyone, and asked me to stay with Xunhuan at her place!"

"I wasn’t comfortable about my sister; I didn’t want to stay with Xunhuan. I just wanted to take care of her, but my sister is stubborn and strong-willed, and for her, Xunhuan is her lifeline, she wouldn’t compromise anything for him. She scolded me for being disobedient, leaving me no choice but to go stay with Xunhuan!"

"At that time, I wanted to know what had happened, but I knew my sister wouldn’t tell me!" Qin Rumeng said helplessly: "A few days later, my sister returned, and Longshou was with her. I happened to overhear their conversation!"

"I heard Longshou say that there was a traitor beside my sister, it was Huangfu Yueli, who told others about my sister seeing the Taiji Seal!"

Qiu Ruoxi’s face instantly showed a surprised expression: "Aunt, you... you know the Taiji Seal?"

"I’ve known for a long time, but even now, I don’t know what it really is!" Qin Rumeng said helplessly.

Qin Rumeng had known about the Taiji Seal for a long time, but what it was exactly, she really didn’t know, nor its purpose.

Qiu Ruoxi, for a moment, didn’t know what to say.

"What, you know it too?"

"It’s on me!" Qiu Ruoxi didn’t hide from Qin Rumeng and said truthfully.

"It’s on you?" Qin Rumeng’s eyes widened, looking at Qiu Ruoxi with disbelief.

"Yes, Xunhuan gave it to me, it’s around my neck, let me take it off and show you!"

Saying this, Qiu Ruoxi was about to take off the Taiji Seal from her neck to show Qin Rumeng.

"No need!" Qin Rumeng directly refused: "I’m not interested in it."

Seeing Qin Rumeng say this, Qiu Ruoxi didn’t feel right to say anything further.

"Aunt, is it just because of this matter?"

"If it were just that, it would be okay, but do you know? The other party offered Huangfu Yueli some benefits that we don’t know about, she even poisoned my sister’s food. If my sister hadn’t noticed, she might have died!" Qin Rumeng said with teeth clenched, full of hatred: "Tell me, how could I forgive her?"

"Both my sister and I treated her as family, but she treated my sister as a bargaining chip for her own gain; the fact that I didn’t kill her is already good enough. Want me to be nice to her? That’s impossible in this lifetime." Qin Rumeng said heavily.

"And my mother-in-law..."

"My sister has a big heart, even so, she still treats Huangfu Yueli as a friend, as a sister, but not me, I’m someone who holds grudges!" Qin Rumeng said heavily: "At the time, I don’t know what my sister was thinking; she even wanted Huangfu Yueli to co-manage Fenghua Group with me. Luckily, Huangfu Yueli knew better, otherwise, I would’ve crippled her long ago!"

Qiu Ruoxi was completely at a loss for words.

The relationship between Qin Rumeng and Qin Fenghuang seems like sisters but is, in fact, more like mother and daughter. Huangfu Yueli hurt Qin Fenghuang, Qin Fenghuang can let bygones be bygones, but Qin Rumeng cannot, it’s something she’ll remember for a lifetime.

She will never forgive Huangfu Yueli.

"You know about this, and that’s enough. Let’s stop here!" Qin Rumeng took a deep breath: "From now on, when you see Huangfu Yueli, stay away from her. People I don’t like, you cannot interact with them, understand?"

Qiu Ruoxi nodded somewhat woodenly.

"By the way, Qiu Ruoxi, I’ve always wanted to ask you, have you ever hated me?"

Faced with Qin Rumeng’s sudden jump in thought, Qiu Ruoxi was momentarily stunned.

"Ah!"

"Have you ever hated me?"

"A little bit at one point!" Qiu Ruoxi was fairly candid: "But not anymore. You seem bossy and unreasonable, but actually that’s only when it involves Xunhuan. For things unrelated to Xunhuan, you’re quite nice!"

Qin Rumeng laughed immediately after hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s evaluation: "I used to really dislike you, but now I find I like you much more!"

Perhaps because of her easy-going nature, Qin Rumeng was not constantly affected by the appearance of Huangfu Yueli, and soon she returned to her usual self.

Meanwhile, Ye Xunhuan had gone somewhere, not having caught up yet, but Qin Rumeng and Qiu Ruoxi didn’t mind; they sat in the carriage joking and laughing with a fairly harmonious atmosphere.

At the moment, it wasn’t that Ye Xunhuan hadn’t followed, but he had, he just suddenly sensed something and did not get in the car, instead, he was scanning the surroundings back and forth, his face filled with vigilance!

Suddenly, a strange cold wind blew past, making Ye Xunhuan’s face tense, his body instinctively leaned backward, and his right hand almost reflexively reached behind.

"Swoosh!"

Next moment, an older man with a thin mustache suddenly appeared behind Ye Xunhuan.

The man had a very slender figure, a square face, thick eyebrows, and big eyes, giving off a reserved air, and possibly due to long habitation, naturally emanated a commanding presence!

"Marshal!" The man’s eyes were full of indifference as he stood behind Ye Xunhuan and said: "You have a big life, the Sovereign didn’t manage to kill you!"
