Chapter 197 Qi Yunxiao learned to show weakness

 Qi Yunxiao felt insecure, especially after learning that he was going to Beijing, but Shen Qingyu had no intention of retaining him or going with him.

So on the first day when he was preparing to enter Beijing, he watched Shen Qingyu hesitate to speak.

Shen Qingyu looked normal and was chatting with Zhao Yuzhu about business matters and the plans for the next soap workshop.

Today's soap workshops can already produce thousands of bars of soap a day, and production capacity is still increasing.

The courtyard by the river has gradually become overcrowded.

Shen Qingyu is considering whether to buy another yard near the pier to use as a soap workshop.

It felt like the planning was almost complete, when I suddenly realized that Qi Yunxiao was sitting next to me, neither talking nor leaving.

"What's the matter with you?" Shen Qingyu asked curiously.

Qi Yunxiao: "..."

Seeing that he didn't answer, Shen Qingyu hesitated for two seconds and then asked, "Are you okay?"

Qi Yunxiao: "..."

Finally, Qi Yunxiao stood up in frustration and called to the sophomore: "Are your things ready? We'll leave in a moment."

Shen Qingyu: "..."

Zhao Yuzhu kicked Shen Qingyu and reminded in a low voice: "What do you mean, you didn't see it?"

Shen Qingyu sighed quietly: "Then what do you want from me?"

The people in the capital asked Qi Yunxiao to come to the capital, but they didn't ask Shen Qingyu to bring their three children to the capital. Obviously, they wanted to talk to Qi Yunxiao alone about something.

In other words, Shen Qingyu has been quietly sidelined by the palace.

Even though Shen Qingyu was the former legitimate daughter of the Duke of Wei, Duke Wei has not shown up for many years, and the Palace of the Duke of Wei exists in name only.

Therefore, as the handsome eldest son of Qingpinghou Mansion, if he wants to marry someone else, it is understandable.

Doesn’t the palace mean that Shen Qingyu will go back with him?

This realization made Shen Qingyu feel very unhappy: If I had known that it would be the Mid-Autumn Festival, I shouldn't have sent so many soap boxes of chili sauce to the palace.

What a heartless thing!

So angry!

Shen Qingyu was angry for a while, then stopped. She got up and went to find Qi Yunxiao: "I'll go and say a few words to him."

Qi Yunxiao is packing things in the room.

It's said to be tidying up, but actually there's nothing to tidy up.

But he was just worried.

The palace called me back to the capital, but didn't ask my wife to go. If my wife felt uncomfortable, she could just tell me, but she didn't say anything.

What do you mean?

Don’t you have yourself in your heart?

Don’t take yourself seriously at all?

Thinking of this, Qi Yunxiao felt very distressed, and he couldn't get over the feeling that he had sincerely fed the dog.

So when Shen Qingyu entered the room, she saw Qi Yunxiao standing beside the bed in a daze.

There seems to be a little bit of... resentment on that face?

"What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Shen Qingyu asked curiously.

Qi Yunxiao glanced at Shen Qingyu, sighed feebly, and did not answer.

Shen Qingyu walked over and sat on the bed next to Qi Yunxiao without looking at him: "If you're unhappy, I'm also unhappy. What's your temper?"

Qi Yunxiao became even more powerless: "You don't know why I'm unhappy?"

Shen Qingyu looked at him now: "Why?"

Qi Yunxiao couldn't help it, he stood next to her, pulled her finger and pinched it to play with: "You don't care about me, that's why I'm unhappy."

Shen Qingyu refused to admit it, widening her eyes and quibbling: "Who said I don't care about you?"

"Then you know that I am going to the capital alone, but you don't care what I am going to do? What will happen?"

Shen Qingyu: "Do you know what will happen if you go to the capital? What do you think will happen?"

Qi Yunxiao: "..."

How come this exchange is not internal?

There is a faint smell of gunpowder.

Qi Yunxiao endured it again and again: "Aren't you afraid that after I return to Beijing, His Majesty will arrange other errands for me and... give me people?"

Shen Qingyu laughed strangely: "Then your Majesty will give you a man, can you refuse?"

"Of course I will refuse."

"Then what else do I have to worry about?" Shen Qingyu spread her hands with a matter-of-fact look on her face.

Qi Yunxiao: "..."

That’s what he said, but why does it sound so unpleasant?

"You don't care about me." Qi Yunxiao finally said these words.

When Shen Qingyu heard this, he was also stunned.

She wanted to refute, but when the words came to her lips, she felt inexplicably guilty, and the atmosphere froze for a moment.

"If you are an ordinary woman, hearing that your husband-in-law may get a marriage from the Holy God, you will definitely be anxious and worried. You will ask for guarantees in various ways, and ask to go back to Beijing with you to watch your husband-in-law... But you didn't even ask."

Shen Qingyu: "..."

"You know how I treat you these days, but you don't care about me at all..."

There was no trace of resentment in Qi Yunxiao's tone.

Shen Qingyu was shocked!

Seeing that her man was so aggrieved that he was about to burst into tears, Shen Qingyu finally realized her conscience and held Qi Yunxiao's hand with her backhand: "I actually know..."

Qi Yunxiao: "?"

"You are going back to Beijing. I guess your mother wants to see if your forehead is really healed."

"There may also be a marriage. But I think if the decision is yours, I don't have to worry."

"If you decide to marry someone else, I should be glad that we haven't started again."

"If you can refuse, I should be glad that I choose to continue to be with you."

"If it's a marriage you can't refuse, what's the use of me going along?"

"You said I don't care about you, but that's not the case."

"But in this era, for a man I can't keep, apart from silently letting him fly, what can I do?"

After Shen Qingyu finished speaking, her mood also dropped.

Qi Yunxiao can no longer hold grudges.

He reached out to wrap Shen Qingyu's little hand and said what he had wanted to say for a long time: "Can you accompany me to the capital?"

Shen Qingyu: "???But they didn't ask me to go."

Qi Yunxiao: "They didn't say they wouldn't let you go!"

Shen Qingyu: "..."

That's true.

In the end, Shen Qingyu agreed.

There is no other way, Qi Yunxiao doesn't know who he learned it from, and he actually knows how to pretend to be pitiful.

When he heard that his daughter was going to the capital, Zhao Yuzhu was not surprised. Instead, he gave her a token: "Go to the Duke Wei's Mansion."

"Ah?"

"That's your home, you should go and see it. Show this token to the steward of Duke Wei's Mansion, and he will know."

"Oh."

My daughter is going back to Beijing and may face a love rival, so I have to support her no matter what.

Zhao Yuzhu dug out various resources from his original memory that might help his daughter, and gave Shen Qingyu some advice.

Seeing her daughter packing things to take to the capital, Zhao Yuzhu expressed her relief.

Although Duke Wei has disappeared from the elite circles of the capital for many years, the friendship we fought together in those days is still there, and the old brothers who fought side by side are still there, and they will not sit back and watch their daughter suffer.
