Chapter 301 Resentful Husband
Knowing that men are more susceptible to soft words than to hard ones, Qin Xiaoning smiled and replied, "My small place cannot compare to the food in Beijing, but there are some local specialties. I'll ask them to get some for you to try later."

Lu Ji smiled faintly: "Don't worry about that. As long as you can take good care of my child, I will be satisfied."

All he talks about is children.

Qin Xiaoning held back her temper and asked tentatively, "You are now the regent king, so you must be busy with endless official duties. You have been away for so long, and the important matters of the court cannot be handled without you. Is it okay?"

Lu Ji glared at Qin Xiaoning: "You have made great progress. Now you care about me."

He was mocking her again.

This man is full of resentment and is now a complete resentful husband. No matter what you say to him, he will feel jealous.

Qin Xiaoning did not argue with her husband, but said generously: "You are the one who manages the world's affairs. I don't want you to be affected by our private affairs."

Lu Ji looked at her leisurely, which made Qin Xiaoning feel a little nervous.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" she couldn't help asking.

Lu Ji opened his lips slightly and said, "Just say what you want to say. There's no need to beat around the bush."

He moved his body and leaned against the back of the bed. "Tell me, what do you want from me? Just tell me."

It was as if all she had to do was be nice to him, then all her plans would be gone.

Qin Xiaoning couldn't help but frown.

"Are you still unhappy?" Lu Ji smiled coldly: "Could it be that I have wronged you?"

Qin Xiaoning remained silent.

After a long while, the man asked, "I was right, wasn't I? Do you feel guilty?"

She slowly raised her head and said to him, "Lu Ji, are you not going to forgive me?"

The man gradually showed anger when he heard this, and said fiercely: "Qin Xiaoning, do you think you deserve to be forgiven?"

"Ask yourself, have I, Lu Ji, ever done anything wrong to you?"

Faced with his questioning, Qin Xiaoning just lowered her head and remained silent.

The resentful husband was so angry that he was huffing and puffing, his heavy breath hitting her head again and again: "I told you that I would make you right sooner or later, isn't it you who has no patience?"

When he mentioned this, the man laughed out of anger: "You left without saying a word, and even though you knew you were pregnant with my child, you refused to go back. Qin Xiaoning, what do you think you are thinking? If I hadn't come to find you, did you really intend to let my Lu Ji's flesh and blood wander around and become a fatherless child?"

He criticized her one sentence after another. Knowing that he was deeply resentful, Qin Xiaoning did not argue with him and let him vent his feelings.

As long as Lu Ji can put aside their past grudges, marry her, and let the child in her belly become a legitimate son, Qin Xiaoningning, who has always been good at seeking benefits and avoiding harm, does not mind being bullied by him.

"It's all my fault."

She admitted her mistake to him and wiped away her tears.

"Don't cry." The man said coldly, "Are you trying to win my heart with tears again?"

In the past, whenever she cried, he would definitely be soft-hearted, but now, you see, he has become as hard-hearted as stone.

She knew he didn't love her that much anymore.

Since you don't love her anymore, don't blame her for being hypocritical for the sake of the child.

Qin Xiaoning wiped her tears and replied, "I left because I didn't want to be humble to others, but it wasn't entirely for my own sake. I was worried that people would point fingers at you and accuse you of favoring your concubine over your wife." Before she could finish, Lu Ji interrupted her coldly, "Stop making excuses."

Oh! I really can’t eat anything soft or hard right now.

Qin Xiaoning took a deep breath and continued, "You're angry that I left and refused to forgive me. You're giving me cold words and a cold look. I don't blame you, but you're wronging me by saying that I don't have you in my heart and I only care about myself."

After saying this, Lu Ji did not interrupt him again. He turned his head and looked at her. Although there was still anger in his deep eyes, it was much milder than before.

go on.

Although he didn't say anything, he gave her this look.

She felt more confident.

Qin Xiaoning straightened her body slightly and continued, "I came to Qianzhou and changed my name. I gave up my last name and changed it to 'Lu Nian'."

She raised her eyes to look at him, with grievance in her watery eyes: "I changed my name to yours."

He sniffed and murmured again: "Lu Nian, Lu Nian, I just can't forget you. I miss you."

After the little woman said this, when she looked at Lu Ji again, the anger in the man's eyes had mostly dissipated, and the look in his eyes when he looked at her was no longer as murderous as before.

She felt more confident.

The little woman continued to make efforts, raised her hand to pull the man's hand, gently put it on her face, and cried, "How can you doubt my sincerity towards you? You are so disheartening."

As she spoke, tears began to fall and landed on the man's big, broad hands.

In the end, he softened his heart. Although he didn't say anything, he raised his hand to wipe away her tears.

After a long while, he asked her, "If I hadn't come to find you, you would really never go back, right?"

Men are hard-hearted and can't stand being abandoned by women.

Abandoning him became a hurdle that the man could not get over.

Qin Xiaoning looked at him with honesty in her eyes, and said, "I don't know."

Seeing the man frowned slightly, she sniffed and said, "Don't be angry, just listen to me and finish what I have to say."

"You say." Lu Ji said.

She wiped away her tears and said to him, "If you marry someone else and have a child, we will go back home, and what position will we have?"

After saying this, she raised her eyes to look at the man, carefully observing his expression.

The man hurriedly said, "My child, no matter what situation he is in, I will naturally give him the best. Don't you still believe me?"

He only mentioned the child, without any intention of considering her at all.

Qin Xiaoning suppressed her grief and said, "I know you are a responsible man and you will definitely find ways to protect our child."

She paused, then choked up again and said, "It's just that the struggles in the harem are not something that a grown man like you can understand. If you had a wife and a son, how could they tolerate us mother and son? Even if they reluctantly acknowledged the child because he is of the Lu family's bloodline, what about me? I'm an orphan with no one to protect me. I'm afraid I won't even know how I was killed."

After saying this, she looked at Lu Ji and cried aggrievedly: "So, even if I miss you and want my child to return to his ancestral home, I must take care of my own life."

The little woman had tears in her eyes and spoke with a choked voice. She held the man's hand weakly, looking pitiful.

Lu Ji looked at her, sighed heavily, and finally stretched out his arms and held her in his arms.
