Qing He said, "It's okay. Furong is with me. I won't go to crowded places. Nothing will happen."

Jiang Yaonian agreed, but the next day he instructed his guards to protect the young lady in secret when they went out next time and not to be discovered by her.

Soon, Jiang Yaonian's worries were confirmed.

That day, Yao Furong suddenly said that she wanted to eat crispy duck and bamboo shoots and pork noodles. Qinghe thought that she would not be able to eat them after leaving the capital, so she took her out to eat.

Business in the store was booming and the two had to wait for a while before they got a seat.

After a while, the restaurant served the dishes.

When they were halfway through their meal, a few idle rogues came into the store.

After looking around, they found that there were no empty seats in the restaurant, so they walked over to their table and shouted in a domineering manner: "Hey, there are too many of us, you guys go to the next table and squeeze in!"

Yao Furong was happily eating fried dough twists with a mouth full of greasy dough, but she was very angry when she saw someone making trouble. She held up a duck leg and said, "We also waited in line for a long time before we finally got a seat. Please wait a moment!"

The rogue said arrogantly, "I can't wait! Hurry up, don't force me to do it!"

Qing He didn't want to cause trouble, so she comforted Yao Furong and said, "Forget it, pack up the rest and take it back. I'll bring you here to eat next time!"

When the leading scoundrel saw Qing He, his eyes lit up, and he said with a drooling face and malicious intent: "Sister, you can stay and eat with us! The brothers will treat you!"

Qinghe ignored him and turned to ask the waiter to wrap the rest of the duck with lotus leaves.

Those scoundrels stopped her with a playful smile, saying, "Sister, don't leave! Sit down and eat together!"

Qing He felt very disgusted and turned to Yao Furong and said, "Let's go!"

Several people stopped her from leaving and teased her, "Sister, do you have a husband?"

"We guys hang out in this area all the time, how come we haven't seen you before?"

"Do you want to make friends with your brother?"

The waiter had seen Qing He come to the store with her guards before, so he kindly advised the rogues, "Dear guests, please let these two girls go! The food will be available soon!"

One of the lackeys glared at him and cursed, "What does this have to do with you! Get out of the way!" Then he tried to pull Qinghe's hand.

In a flash, several sturdy men suddenly rushed over from somewhere, stepped forward and dislocated the arms of those scoundrels with a few "clicks" and "clicks" without saying a word, and then disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye!

By the time the scoundrels reacted, those people had already disappeared, leaving only Yao Furong and Qing He standing aside, staring in amazement!

The scoundrels grimaced in pain and started shouting and yelling together!

Qinghe took the packed duck from the waiter and quietly led Yao Furong away.

After they walked out of the door, Yao Furong asked in surprise, "Sister, what are those people doing? How come they come and go without a trace?"

Qinghe took her home without saying a word.

After the two got off the carriage, Qinghe asked her sister to go back to her room first, and then she went to the study.

As a result, when he entered, he happened to see an unfamiliar guard reporting to Jiang Yaonian: "...So our subordinates really had no choice but to stop those scoundrels..."

When the guard saw Qinghe walk in, he quickly shut up in embarrassment.

Qing He walked up to him and said calmly, "It was thanks to you guys who helped me just now. Was it Master Jiang who asked you to do this?"

The guard said nothing.

Jiang Yaonian waved his hand and the guard turned and left.

The study was very quiet for a while.

Qing He asked softly, "Why did you send someone to follow me?"

Jiang Yaonian looked at her calmly and said, "I'm worried that you'll meet a bad guy."

Qinghe looked at him without saying anything.

Jiang Yaonian simply stopped beating around the bush and got straight to the point: "Qinghe, what's wrong with you recently... Why did you want to go out and relax without telling me? Also, why didn't you let the guards follow you when you went out? If I'm not mistaken, are you preparing to run away from home?"

Seeing that things had come to this, Qing He had no choice but to come clean and say, "Yes, I want to leave you!"

Jiang Yaonian was shocked. "Why? Ever since we came back from shopping last time, you have been treating me coldly since the next day! At first I thought you were just in a bad mood... But since that day, you never let me touch you again! Can you tell me why?"

Qinghe remained silent.

Jiang Yaonian frowned and asked, "Is it still because of what happened last time? Didn't I already confess everything to you?"

Suddenly, Qinghe's long-suppressed pain burst out!

She trembled all over and shouted loudly: "But you didn't tell me that person was your biological sister!"

After Jiang Yaonian heard this, his expression changed instantly, and he said in a cold voice: "How did you know? Who told you?"

Qing He looked him in the eyes angrily and asked, "You don't think I'm a fool, do you? On the day we entered the palace for the banquet, she clearly hinted in front of me that your relationship was not ordinary! Could it be that I couldn't see it? Also, on the day I fell into the water, did you meet her and have a tryst with her, and did you hug her?"

Jiang Yaonian paused, and explained with some difficulty: "Qinghe, listen to me! It was not a tryst at all, and I didn't hug her. I just heard the eunuch say that she was crying very hard, so I thought she encountered some difficulties, so I went to take a look. Who knew that she lost control of her emotions and hugged me and cried. It was not what you thought..."

Qing He said angrily, "She regretted giving up on you, so she wanted to relive the old days with you! And you also happened to have lingering feelings for her, so you rushed over to comfort her, so you ignored ethics and morals and hugged each other in broad daylight, right? And then she helped Concubine Rong to frame me for pushing the third prince into the water. It seems that it must have been premeditated! Mr. Jiang, I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person... Don't explain! I don't want to listen either. After the fifteenth of next month, let's get divorced!"

Jiang Yaonian was stunned for a moment, looked at her in disbelief and whispered, "Are you not going to forgive me?"

Qing He shook her head painfully and said, "I want to pretend that nothing happened... but I can't! Whenever I think of what happened between you two, I feel sick and want to go crazy..."

Jiang Yaonian's expression changed, "So you plan to leave me?"

Qinghe didn't say anything, which was considered as her agreement!

Jiang Yaonian looked at her with sad eyes and said, "Qinghe, can't the feelings between us be overwhelmed by something that has already passed?"

Qing He cried, "I want to pretend that nothing happened! But I can't do it... I will collapse in pain whenever I think about it! Mr. Jiang, let's get a divorce!"

Jiang Yaonian widened his eyes in shock and asked, "What did you say?"

Qing He sobbed with tears streaming down her face: "I can't stand it for another day! Although we once loved each other, we can't bear the pain brought by this matter..."

She didn't want to separate from him, but she couldn't forget this matter at all, and she couldn't forgive her husband for having had a relationship with her own sister!

In her heart, he is no longer the perfect husband he used to be!

Jiang Yaonian said in a low voice: "Qinghe, you are too excited now... No matter what I say, you can't listen... How about this, we live separately for a while, if you still can't forgive me in the end, then we can separate, okay?"

Qing He said calmly and stubbornly: "No! I have thought it through clearly! Mr. Jiang, let's separate!"

Seeing her so heartless, Jiang Yaonian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He looked at her in disbelief and said, "Are the feelings between us and your love for me all fake? Didn't we agree to grow old together and never separate?"

Qing He smiled sadly, "I did think about growing old with you... but now I don't want to! Whenever I think of that incident, I feel sick and crazy! Mr. Jiang, please don't force me, let's just part ways in peace!"

Jiang Yaonian looked at her coldly and said, "I will never divorce you! Qinghe, if you insist on breaking up now, you will definitely regret it in the future..."
