Chapter 353: Are You Happy Now?

"Your apology gift." Rong Yang stood on the steps at the manor entrance, looking down at the disheveled Qin He, and said in a milky, childish voice, "I, the young Heir Apparent, do not accept it. Just based on you? You are not worthy."

Qin He was both ashamed and annoyed: "I want to see Heir Apparent He."

Rong Yang said: "Idiot."

The child turned and went back into the manor, not wasting any more words on Qin He.

Passersby stopped to watch. Qin He's face flushed red, and fearing she would be recognized and mocked, she was helped up by her maid and matron, who pulled Fubao onto the carriage and left. Who wouldn't recognize the carriage of the Xue Wang Fu?

Inside the Yan Guogong Fu, the Second Young Lady was shocked: "Thrown out?"

"Indeed." The maid was sharp and said, "The young Heir Apparent was very imposing."

The Second Young Lady asked: "Did the Heir Apparent of our Yan Guogong Fu say anything?"

The maid shook her head: "No."

"Is this because he still harbors feelings for his 'white moonlight,' or are those feelings already gone?" The Second Young Lady was suspicious: "Rong Yang ordered someone to be thrown out of the manor, and the eldest Heir Apparent didn't make a single move."

Reprimanding Rong Yang was impossible. In the past, Heir Apparent He would have at least defended Qin He a little.

To be thrown out of the manor like that was incredibly unsightly.

Qin He had always been haughty, and now she had lost face. It must be said, the Second Young Lady was in a good mood. The maid served new tea, and the Second Young Lady drank it, thoroughly enjoying her current good mood.

She sent someone to inquire, and good heavens, Heir Apparent He of the Yan Guogong Fu hadn't been busy with anything; he was just raising his children in the courtyard. It was just unclear why he had no time to see Qin He.

Was it intentional? Hard to guess.

He Yan was merely coaxing his children to be happy. Rong Yang had not grown up in the Yan Guogong Fu and was not close to the people there. To coax the child, He Yan would discard whatever needed to be discarded.

It wasn't very complicated; it was just that the little bun Rong Yang was a bit black-bellied.

Qin He was currently furious, annoyed, and filled with shame and indignation. Since her transmigration, Qin He had never been this humiliated. To actually be thrown out of the Yan Guogong Fu by a child—Qin He felt aggrieved and embarrassed.

Fubao felt sorry for Qin He and stood up, intending to turn back: "Mother, Rong Yang is too bad. I'll go back to the Yan Guogong Fu and make him look good."

Qin He wanted to, but thinking of Rong Yang's many schemes, she worried Fubao would suffer.

Qin He pulled Fubao back: "Don't go yet. Let's go to your maternal grandfather's house and ask your maternal grandmother to make the decision for us."

When Qin He had no ideas, she liked to find Cui Shi, but Fubao did not trust the Qin Yan Hou Fu: "Let's go find Father to stand up for Mother."

How could this matter be known by Heir Apparent Xue? Qin He was flustered and lost her composure. Once they arrived at the Qin Yan Hou Fu, Qin He left Fubao behind and ran to the main courtyard with red-rimmed eyes. Everyone was in the main courtyard living room today.

"What is the meaning of this?" Zhu Shi was startled to see Qin He like this.

Qin He entered the living room, her eyes brimming with tears as she stubbornly held them back. He He Shizi Apparent's wife was also startled, asking what the situation was while sending someone to call the Qin Yan Hou's wife and Cui Shi.

Jiang Shi and Lin Shi knew that Qin He and Qin Bi were at odds and that everything was linked to Qin Bi. Jiang Shi sent her maid to invite He Shi as well. Cui Shi was Qin He's legal mother, and He Shi was Qin Bi's legal mother.

They weren't biological, but a legal mother was still a mother.

The Qin Yan Hou's wife, Cui Shi, and He Shi arrived quickly. Once the ladies of the house arrived, Qin He could no longer hold back, and tears rolled down stubbornly, as if she had suffered a great grievance.

"Why are you crying?" Cui Shi was always able to stabilize the situation and asked after sitting down: "Speak, what happened?"

The Qin Yan Hou's wife also frowned. The Marquis Manor prospered and suffered together; if Qin He suffered a grievance, the Marquis Manor naturally wouldn't sit idly by. Qin He's younger sister was even more anxious; she was a hot-tempered person.

Qin He didn't intend to cover it up or hide it; she glared hatefully at Qin Bi.

He Shi narrowed her eyes, knowing Qin He was going to be troublesome again. Qin He dragged Cui Shi into stirring up trouble, but He Shi wasn't afraid. Now, she also had cultivation; her talent was low, but she couldn't help that she ate well.

Qin He stared at Qin Bi, who was sitting there drinking tea and eating melon seeds, filled with resentment. She said to the ladies: "I went to the Yan Guogong Fu to demand an explanation. I don't know what methods some people used, but they wouldn't even let me see Heir Apparent He, and I was even lectured by the Yan Guogong's wife."

The Qin Yan Hou's wife thought it was something major. Upon hearing this, she said: "The Yan Guogong's wife is an elder. What's wrong with her saying a few words to you? Qin He, you too, you can't even listen to a single unpleasant word."

Qin He was unconvinced: "I humbled myself. I followed the Yan Guogong's wife's requirements and bought spirit melon seeds to apologize to Rong Yang. But they went back on their word and wouldn't let me see Heir Apparent He at all."

Qin He felt aggrieved and unwilling, and she roughly recounted her trip to the Yan Guogong Fu.

After finishing, Qin He wiped away her tears and glared hatefully at Qin Bi: "Are you happy now? You actually instigated Rong Yang to throw me out of the Yan Guogong Fu. Don't be too smug; when Heir Apparent He finds out, he will definitely reprimand Rong Yang for acting on his own."

Qin Bi was a bit surprised, unable to suppress the corner of her mouth: "They threw you out?"

Qin He froze. Her face stung, and she felt as if she had been slapped again. Being thrown out was very shameful. Qin He felt hot all over and wished she could disappear. Qin Bi's expression infuriated her.

But she couldn't see Heir Apparent He. Without Heir Apparent He's favoritism toward her, she couldn't move anyone.

Qin He's eyes were full of hatred. Qin He's younger sister was furious and shouted at Qin Bi: "What do you have to be smug about?"

Qin He's younger sister was so agitated, feeling heartache for Qin He's grievance. Qin Bi was happy and said with a smile: "Well done. Qin He, you don't go to the right person when you have an issue, but come whine to me. Being thrown out of the Yan Guogong Fu is your own fault."

"Qin Bi," Cui Shi spoke up: "Qin He is your cousin. Why must you sisters make things so ugly?"

He Shi put down her teacup and said: "Cui Shi, does Qin He being thrown out of the Yan Guogong Fu have anything to do with Qin Bi? Qin He went looking for trouble; it serves her right to be told a few unpleasant words."

The Qin Yan Hou's wife sighed, looking at the glaring Qin He, not knowing what to say.

"Qin He, you suffered a grievance, but it has nothing to do with Qin Bi," the Qin Yan Hou's wife said: "Rong Yang ordered people to throw you out of the manor? That was indeed a bit excessive. You went to demand an explanation, but what did you do to get thrown out?"

"I didn't do anything!" Qin He's eyes were bloodshot, and tears fell in streams.

The Qin Yan Hou's wife then said to Qin Bi: "Go back and talk to Rong Yang. Qin He is his aunt; he should show some face. With Qin He being thrown out of the Yan Guogong Fu, our Qin Yan Hou Fu doesn't look good either."

"I don't know what happened. It has nothing to do with me," Qin Bi said, not sympathizing at all with the heartbroken Qin He: "Rong Yang returned to the Yan Guogong Fu, so he is a child of the Yan Guogong Fu. If Qin He suffered a grievance at the Yan Guogong Fu, she should go to the Yan Guogong Fu and find someone who can protect her. What does finding me count for? Do you think I'm easy to talk to? Or do you think I have a good temper?"

"Oh my!" He He Shizi Apparent's wife turned her head, speechless. Qin Bi even dared to strike Qin He with lightning; how could she possibly have a good temper? ===== CHAPTER 354 =====
