Chapter 256 - Activate the Mole
Chapter 256: Activate the Mole
“We have to accompany Aunt in the future,” Xu Qing said.
Qiao Yanhui pulled Xu Qing into his arms and said, “You must be tired. Go to sleep. I’ll accompany you.”
Just this sentence alone filled Xu Qing’s entire heart with happiness. From the beginning to the end, this man was only worried about her health and that she would be tired from chatting for too long. Therefore, he even chased his aunt away so mercilessly. This man was so cute!
Xu Qing quickly fell asleep in this warm embrace.
…
Ever since the birthday banquet, Ao Heng had been mentally and physically exhausted. Those princes made him uneasy. The Eldest Prince and the Second Prince even begged him to issue a decree to let them divorce their original wives and marry the princess of the Nujiang Kingdom.
The reason was that at the banquet held by the Eldest Princess last time, their wives framed the general’s wife, causing the royal family to lose face. Such people were not worthy of being the consorts!
Ao Heng smashed another tea set in anger. These two unfilial sons made it sound nice, but it had been almost two months since this happened. Now that he thought about it, they were clearly coveting his throne! They wanted to rely on the Nujiang Kingdom to pull him down!
Ao Heng had long known that the First Prince and the Second Prince had met the envoy of the Nujiang Kingdom in private. These two unfilial sons had actually made all sorts of promises to the Nujiang Kingdom just to obtain the throne.
Ao Heng naturally couldn’t agree. At the same time, he collected the crimes of these two unfilial sons and let Empress Lin Shu find out about it.
Ao Heng believed that Lin Shu would deal with those two unfilial sons! After all, this woman would never let anyone threaten her son!
As for Qiao Yanhui, Ao Heng wasn’t worried about him for the time being. After all, Yi Chulin was holding him back.
However, why were these two people fighting over a woman? Ao Heng still sent someone to investigate. Perhaps he could use this to get rid of these two people!
As Ao Heng lay on the bed with a gloomy expression, he suddenly thought of the mole at Qiao Yanhui’s side, but he had a feeling that Qiao Yanhui was already starting to suspect him. The mole had to be activated quickly. Otherwise, it would become a useless mole, and all his years of nurturing would be in vain!
…
Qiao Yanqi had been staying in the villa. Her swollen face was already distorted by hatred. Why should she be punished by Brother Hui every day? She was a princess, and Xu Qing was a lowly poor person. Why should Brother Hui protect her?
How unfair!
She had to make Xu Qing suffer!
Suddenly, Qiao Yanqi clutched her stomach and rolled on the ground. Two to three minutes later, the pain disappeared. Qiao Yanqi’s eyes flashed with coldness as she hurriedly headed towards a certain direction.
The moment Qiao Yanqi left, a few figures followed closely behind!
…
Qiao Yanhui actually knew the situation in the capital very well and wasn’t worried since he didn’t take those people seriously at all. Therefore, he focused on resisting Yi Chulin. As long as there was a chance, this man would sneak into the Qiao family’s house. Fortunately, he had been caught by him every time!
Qiao Yanhui looked coldly at Yi Chulin, who was standing on the wall. “Yi Chulin!”
Yi Chulin sneered. “How many times do you think you can stop me?”
They started fighting again.
When Xu Qing heard Teng Nian’s report, she fell into deep thought. They couldn’t continue like this. Even though she knew that Qiao Yanhui wouldn’t lose to Yi Chulin, Qiao Yanhui hadn’t slept much these past few days. This made Xu Qing’s heart ache.
However, how could she resolve Yi Chulin’s matter?! How could she prove that she wasn’t Ying Zhiyao? After all, she knew everything Ying Zhiyao knew, and she also… found it difficult to refute.
Actually, if she wanted Yi Chulin to think that she wasn’t Ying Zhiyao, she could only spend time with Yi Chulin. However, when she thought about spending time with a devil like Yi Chulin, Xu Qing’s bones ached, not to mention that Qiao Yanhui wouldn’t agree!
It seemed like there was only one path left!
When Qiao Yanhui returned, it was already nighttime. They had been fighting all day. Xu Qing’s heart ached when she saw the tired Qiao Yanhui. “I’ll talk to him.”
“No!” Qiao Yanhui refused.
The three children’s hearts ached for their father. Although they didn’t understand what was going on, they knew that someone had hit their father and was trying to snatch their mother!
Xu Qing knew Qiao Yanhui would say that. “Don’t worry, I’ll go with you.”
“That won’t do either!” How could Qiao Yanhui let Xu Qing take the risk?!
“You can’t keep doing this! You haven’t slept well for more than half a month! Besides, he has what we want. We have to talk to him.” Xu Qing knew what Qiao Yanhui was thinking, but his well-being was more important!
“Recuperate first.” Qiao Yanhui’s expression was dark.
Xu Qing wanted to do something, but with her current health, it was difficult for her to even get up, let alone do anything else.
