Chapter 184 – Miscarriage?

Chapter 184 Miscarriage?

On the path outside the window, it was indeed Xu Lipeng and Yu Qingmeng. In fact, Xu Lipeng should have been at Qu Moying’s Qianyue House at this time, and Yu Qingmeng had come out alone to take a walk.

Unexpectedly, she was caught up by Xu Lipeng after taking only a few steps.

“Young Master, is the Fourth Lady not here?” Yu Qingmeng said softly. She reached out and touched her waist. Her clothes were loose, but she still looked slender and charming.

“She went to the yard for a walk,” Xu Lipeng said indifferently.

Yu Qingmeng carefully looked at his face, took a few steps closer, and reached out to pull his sleeve. “Then let’s go take a walk too. Maybe we can meet Fourth Lady Qu there. I’d like to apologize to her in person. It’s all my fault… It’s all because of me that she is like this now.”

“You are pregnant now. It’s better not to go over. I will pass on the message if there is anything.” Xu Lipeng’s voice softened. He shook his head and casually walked forward. Yu Qingmeng followed closely behind.

“It’s my fault anyhow, for being young, frivolous, and not sensible enough. I just can’t help it when love has arrived.” Yu Qingmeng lowered her head and smiled bitterly. “I am an official family’s lady, but look at me now… I have ruined your reputation. It’s all my fault.”

Seeing how pitiful she was and how she was thinking about him, Xu Lipeng felt a little relieved and shook his head, “After all, she is not a good match for me. You can’t be blamed for this matter.”

For Xu Lipeng, he had never taken Qu Moying seriously. She was just a woman. At most, he would just keep her in the mansion so that he could keep his good reputation. Xu Lipeng did not feel that it was wrong. Anyway, Qu Moying was not living well in Qu Mansion. When she came to his mansion, he would make his servants treat her well.

Things had become like this. It was not good for him, so how could it be good for Qu Moying?

In terms of personality, Xu Lipeng felt that Qu Moying was a little too stubborn. Women should be gentle and kind. Even if he and Yu Qingmeng had done something wrong, Yu Qingmeng was a concubine. Did Qu Moying think that after he married her, he could not take in concubines? Yu Qingmeng was willing to be with him. Moreover, she was willing to be a concubine. What was there for Qu Moying to be dissatisfied about?

“Anyway, it is my fault. When I see her later, if she is willing to beat me up or scold me, I will accept it.” Yu Qingmeng raised her eyes. The tears at the corners of her eyes were about to fall. She looked extremely aggrieved and gentle. Her eyes were focused on Xu Lipeng, making Xu Lipeng’s heart soften.

These days, he had been in a hard time. The position that had originally been agreed on was intercepted halfway due to the matter of his engagement annulment with Qu Mansion, which was said to have harmed his reputation. This made Xu Lipeng extremely aggrieved. Also, it had not been peaceful in his mansion. His mother had always disliked Yu Qingmeng. If not for the child in Yu Qingmeng’s belly, it would be impossible for his mother to let Yu Qingmeng enter the mansion.

Now, although she had entered, his mother would still find excuses to reprimand Yu Qingmeng. Even in front of all the servants, she showed no mercy. Every time Yu Qingmeng looked at Xu Lipeng, she would always be full of tears.

At first, he felt pity, but it angered his mother even more. Later, Xu Lipeng grew annoyed and impatient too. Sometimes, he would sleep directly in the study and did not return to the inner yard just so that he could have quiet, alone time.

“You have a child in your belly. You should be careful. There is no need to be like this. Although Fourth Lady Qu is a little stubborn, she is always gentle and considerate. She will not make a fuss about this with you.” Xu Lipeng comforted Yu Qingmeng.

Yu Qingmeng reached out and touched her belly, which was not a baby bump yet at all. She smiled bitterly and said, “I owe her. No matter what she does, I really don’t mind.”

They were close together. Although they did not hold hands, they were still very close. Xu Lipeng even slowed down from time to time and waited for Yu Qingmeng to catch up. The atmosphere around them looked calm and peaceful. Duan Jinxiang, who was in the pavilion, was so furious that she almost exploded. Her temper had always been bad, and she had always acted on impulse.

When she argued with Qu Moying just now, she almost wanted to hit Qu Moying. Later, her thoughts were disrupted by Qu Moying’s words, and she only cared about figuring out whether someone was scheming about this matter and forgot to vent her anger. Now that she saw this scene, how could she bear it? She was Young Master Xu’s wife. Who the hell was Yu Qingmeng?

She was so pissed that she couldn’t bear it anymore and turned to go downstairs.

When Duan Jinxiang rushed to the window sill in front of her, Qu Qiuyan knew that it was not a good idea. Seeing that Duan Jinxiang was so jealous that she wanted to rush downstairs, Qu Qiuyan knew that something bad was going to happen. She hurriedly pulled Duan Jinxiang’s sleeve and said, “Second Lady Duan, don’t be angry. Young Master Xu is here. Why not talk it out properly?”

Why did her elder cousin sister and Young Master Yongning come over? And they were even so intimate with each other. It was improper. Qu Qiuyan was also very upset.

“It’s actually Young Master Xu. They really are a perfect match.” Qu Moying held Yu Dong’s hand and walked over. When she saw the scene below, she muttered to herself, “No wonder Young Master is in love with Concubine Yu. She is indeed as beautiful as a flower. Even I pity her when I see her. Now I understand why our engagement has been annulled. I’m indeed inferior to her.”

These words were like adding oil to the fire in Duan Jinxiang’s heart. If Qu Moying understood why her engagement was annulled and admitted she was inferior to Yu Qingmeng, then what about Duan Jinxiang? Did it mean that Duan Jinxiang would never marry into Young Master Yongning’s Mansion?

She was not a useless blind person like Qu Moying, and she would not suffer such a loss.

With this thought in mind, she forcefully pulled Qu Qiuyan’s hand away and rushed downstairs. She would not let this slut have a good time. Yu Qingmeng was just a concubine, yet she actually thought of herself as the wife.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Qu Qiuyan hurriedly chased after her. This had originally been prepared to tackle Qu Moying. It seemed that the situation was about to go wrong again. If only she had known earlier that it would have been completely pointless for Yu to call this idiot Duan Jinxiang over. She was not helpful at all and only caused more trouble.

Qu Moying stood still in front of the window. Yu Dong moved a chair over. Qu Moying sat down. The window was wide, and half of her body was leaning against the window. She watched what was happening outside the window. The view happened to be good—she could see them very clearly.

“Slut! You lowly slut!” When Duan Jinxiang went downstairs, she threw herself in front of Yu Qingmeng. Her hand was ready, and she slapped Yu Qingmeng hard.

Yu Qingmeng was gazing upon Xu Lipeng with her tender and delicate expression. All her focus was on Xu Lipeng. She did not expect that someone would rush out suddenly and give her a slap without saying anything.

She staggered two steps backward and sat heavily on the ground. Her hand pressed against the corner of her dress, and her face immediately turned pale. Her lips were pale.

“Ah! Blood… blood.” The maid, who was following Yu Qingmeng, cried out in alarm. She pointed at the corner of Yu Qingmeng’s dress. There was blood seeping out and slowly dying the corner of Yu Qingmeng’s dress red. Yu Qingmeng’s face was as pale as snow, without a trace of blood. She looked at the corner of her dress in horror. She opened her mouth, but no words came out. Instead, tears rolled down her cheeks.

Xu Lipeng was the first to react. He stepped forward and pushed Duan Jinxiang away. He hurriedly picked up Yu Qingmeng and shouted, “Go get a doctor.”

The maid, who was beside Yu Qingmeng, ran off while wiping her tears.

Qu Qiuyan arrived at this time. She could not care about anything else and only followed behind Xu Lipeng. Her face was full of anxiety, but when she left, she subconsciously glanced at the pavilion. Her eyes became anxious, panicked, and there was a trace of anger.

Yes, she was indeed angry. When Qu Moying saw Qu Qiuyan grit her teeth and rush down, Qu Moying’s eyes became cold. Qu Qiuyan’s gaze was very strange.

Anxiety and panic could be explained, but where did the trace of anger when looking at Qu Moying come from?

“Let’s go down to take a look.” After pondering for a moment, Qu Moying instructed. This incident had happened too suddenly. Even though she had clearly seen everything from where she was, she had not expected it to happen so quickly.

Everything seemed to have been prepared, waiting for a conflict.

She still had some questions that she wanted to verify.

Two maids helped Qu Moying down and helped her to sit in the wheelchair. Yu Dong then pushed her over. When they reached the scene, Duan Jinxiang had already been helped up by a maid. Her entire body was trembling, and she stood on the side of the road in a daze. When she saw Qu Moying come over, she seemed to have woken up. Her face was pale as she raised her eyes to look at Qu Moying and muttered, “I didn’t mean it. I… I really didn’t mean it.”

It happened so suddenly that Duan Jinxiang also panicked, especially when Xu Lipeng glared at her fiercely just now. His eyes were callous and terrifying. Duan Jinxiang originally wanted to explain herself but was pushed away mercilessly. When she fell to the ground, Duan Jinxiang looked at Xu Lipeng with pleading eyes. However, Xu Lipeng didn’t even look at her. He picked up Yu Qingmeng and left.

The blood was still there on the road, with a pool of blood on the ground. The thick smell of blood was pungent.

Qu Moying frowned and looked at the pool of blood carefully. There was a trace of doubt in the corner of her eyes. In her last life, when she was with the Ji Family, she once saw an old maid serving Xiao crash into a concubine from the second branch. That concubine was newly found by Second Uncle Ji Yong’an. It was said that she was pregnant, and something happened after she was knocked down. Coincidentally, Ji Hanyue happened to be in the yard at that time.

At that time, they hurriedly got someone to get a doctor and then helped the concubine to the side. The concubine was clutching her stomach, her face pale from the pain. However, there was not so much blood under her body back then. It was not like the big pool of blood in front of her now. It seemed that too much blood flowed out all of a sudden just now.

“Second Lady Duan, do you want to see Concubine Yu?” Qu Moying looked up and asked slowly.

“I really didn’t mean it. I didn’t do it on purpose.” At this time, Duan Jinxiang was no longer as arrogant as before. She was so scared that she kept muttering to herself.

“Second Lady Duan,” Qu Moying asked again, “don’t you want to go and see what’s going on? Otherwise, if something really happens, I’m afraid you won’t be able to defend yourself in the future.”

There were too many meanings in her words. Duan Jinxiang finally looked straight at Qu Moying. Her hand that was holding maid trembled. “Fourth Lady Qu, do you think she will be okay?” she asked.

“I don’t know, but Concubine Yu’s luck is really bad. If she hadn’t walked through here, something like this wouldn’t have happened.”

Qu Moying said lightly.

“Yes, why did she come? She did it on purpose. She must have done it on purpose.” These words seemed to remind Duan Jinxiang. Her eyes became spirited, and she said indignantly. In the end, even she believed her own words. “Yes, she came here on purpose. She just wanted Young Master Xu to get tired of me, so she deliberately got so close to him as if she was the wife. It was clear that she deliberately provoked me.”

The corners of Qu Moying’s lips twitched. She sneered at Duan Jinxiang’s words. She realized Yu Qingmeng was even more scheming than the scheming Duan Jinxiang. All the extremely selfish and cold ladies had entered the Marquis Yongning’s Mansion…
