The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

“Father?” Zong Yi raised his head. He frowned, looking slightly impatient. “What do you mean by that? That’s all in the past, and Fei’er has long parted away with him. He was the one who has wronged Fei’er in the first place.”

Zong Fu did not say anything. He smiled and looked at Qin Fei’er. “Fei’er, what I’ve asked you just now… Is that true?”

Qin Fei’er’s face was pale as she raised her head and looked at the smile on Zong Fu’s face before she finally nodded. “Yes, it’s true.”

She did not know what Zong Fu wanted by asking this, but it was no longer a secret in Tian Shen Manor, so she could not deny it.

“Oh…” Zong Fu smiled faintly. “Soon, there will be a gathering. I heard that the Mu family’s young lady has returned, and I’m sure they will come to this gathering as well. Fei’er, I don’t want you to cause any more trouble with Nan Xian.”

If it were not for his son, he would have almost said something like, ‘I don’t want you to be involved with Nan Xian anymore.’

He was not afraid of the Mu family, in fact, he was not even afraid of Gu Shi.

In Tian Shen Manor, he was only afraid of Nan Xian!

He could still remember the feeling that felt like a knife on his neck, chilly and cold as if his head would fall to the ground at any time.

He was helpless. Nan Xian was too strong, and he did not know if there was anyone else in Cang Yue Mainland who could defeat him.

If he had the strength, it would not be difficult for him to force Nan Xian to kneel before him.

It was just that he was not as strong as Nan Xian… So, he could only endure whatever thrown at him by Nan Xian!

“Alright, that’s all I have to say, you can go down first. Yi’er, I know you don’t like to have any contact with outsiders, but you must attend this gathering. You are the heir of my Divine Herbs Sect, so you must go and get to know the other forces’ leaders.”

Zong Yi was just about to leave before he suddenly stopped and said coldly, “I’m looking forward to this gathering.”

He was, even more, looking forward to how the wicked woman who had bullied Fei’er being on her knees, begging for mercy!

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead and walked out.

Qin Fei’er turned pale, pondering over what Zong Yi had just said. She regained her senses a few minutes later and walked out of the study room.

The door behind the study room was closed. The cold wind made Qin Fei’er pull her jacket closer to her body, shielding herself from the chill that pierced into her body.

She knew from the start that Zong Fu’s purpose in taking her in… Was not that simple…

Only after hearing Zong Fu’s words did she understand Zong Fu’s purpose.

Qin Fei’er lifted her pale face to the dazzling sun in the sky. She smiled bitterly as she thought about what would happen to her in the future.

‘It’s alright…’

Marrying Zong Fu was better than being forced by her father to be a concubine to that bastard. At least, Zong Fu genuinely liked her.

Her adoptive father had specifically warned her against being involved with Nan Xian for Zong Yi’s sake. If that was the case, she could only obey her adoptive father and stay with Zong Yi in the future.

Moreover, her love for Nan Xian… Was no longer there. There was only anger and resentment left!

Qin Fei’er caressed the fine lines on her eyebrows and eyes again, sighing lightly.

‘Perhaps relying on the Divine Herbs Sect will help me be relieved of the aftermath of this breakthrough…’

No woman wanted to be old. To regain her youthful look, she was willing to stay in the Divine Herbs Sect.

Inside the study room, Zong Fu’s smile disappeared as he watched the two leave.

The elder standing behind him was silent for a moment before he asked in a deep voice, “Sect Master, last time Young Master has mentioned… A spirit herb that can restore Maiden Fei’er’s youth…”
