In the main courtyard.
Helian Yufei had just stepped into the courtyard when he met his wife who was rushing out.
This wife of his was graceful and elegant, and her looks were exquisite. She wore a golden hairpin on her head and when she walked, the wind seemed to follow.
Until she saw Helian Yufei, she paused for a moment and stopped. “Husband, did you go and see Ying’er just now?”
“Yes,” Helian Yufei replied indifferently. “She was indeed a little unruly this time. If I didn’t warn her, I don’t know what kind of problems she would hatch. Now, the old master and General Tian Ya have not realized her actions. However, if they were to find out, do you think there would still be a peaceful day in this Helian family?”
Lady Helian’s expression shifted as she clenched her fists. Even her breathing seemed to be heavy. “Are you really doing this for Ying’er safety, or is it for… Tian Tian?”
Tian Tian, the wife of the second young master of the Helian family, Helian Yue’s biological mother.
That accident back then had left the husband and wife both dead, leaving behind their only daughter, Helian Yue.
It was also because of the lack of discipline, and the fact that the old master pampered her and was always giving in to her that had caused her to be extremely arrogant and domineering.
Helian Yufei heard this name that had not been mentioned for a long time, and his handsome face instantly darkened. Even the gaze he used to look at Lady Helian was cold. “Yue Qin, Sister-in-law has already passed away. Is there any meaning to bringing up her name?”
Yue Qin sneered. “Back then, you liked Tian Tian. In the end, the one she liked was your younger brother. In order to let her marry your younger brother peacefully, you listened to the old lady’s words and married me.
“Later on, when the old lady passed away, your love toward Tian Tian reignited right? Did you really go and warn Ying’er because of her safety, or was it for Tian Tian?” Yue Qing’s face was cold. “Because of that despicable person’s daughter, you have treated your own biological daughter like this. You…”
“Shut up!”
Helian Yufei shouted in anger as he clenched his fists tightly. Even the veins on his forehead were throbbing. “If she was not my biological daughter, do you think I would have hidden everything that she has done to Yue’er? That’s right, I once liked my second sister-in-law, but after she became my sister-in-law, I had already given up on her. Otherwise, do you think I would agree to the marital alliance and married you?”
“Who knows if the two of you were doing things secretly, or even to say Helian Yue is your daug- ”
Slap!
A ruthless slap landed on Yue Qin’s face.
Her whole face reddened and swelled. Her hair was in a mess that she looked no different from a beggar.
“Yue Qin, let me warn you. No matter how angry you are at me, you are not allowed to insult my second younger brother and sister-in-law! Their love was stronger than gold. How could another person step into their relationship?” Helian Yufei’s eyes were bloodshot. “You really don’t understand why I care so much about Yue’er?”
Yue Qin’s gaze was full of hatred as she looked at Helian Yufei coldly.
“I have originally married you and intended to treat you well. But aren’t you aware of what you have done back then?” Helian Yufei sneered. “Because I once liked my sister-in-law, you try to get her into trouble at every instance, even suspecting that the child in her womb was mine and wanted to poison her!
“Did you think that Sister-in-law did not know? No, she knew about everything. However, she did not expose you to keep the peace in the family. Later on, she even saved you without regarding the previous grievances she had received!” Helian Yufei closed his eyes in deep pain. After a while, he opened his eyes again and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. “Second Brother and Sister-in-law died in the hands of our enemies to save you and Ying’er…”
Yue Qin’s body trembled slightly.
