Chapter 72 Why did you really break up with him?

"is not that right?"

"I used to drink with him often, but I didn't expect he was such a person. I really misjudged him." Xu Jinhuai was very upset, and now he could only vent his anger by scolding Lord Yu.

Yu Yue'er also stood up and sat up.

The soft little hand was placed on Xu Jinhuai's shoulder, helping him relax while advising: "Husband, don't be angry. Be careful not to get angry and hurt your body. After all, nothing is more important than your health."

Xu Jinhuai hummed lightly, then closed his eyes and enjoyed the relaxation of his body.

Suddenly, he thought of something and opened his eyes again.

"By the way, how did Qingbai's trouble today turn out?"

Yu Yue'er paused and her eyes instantly turned red.

"Husband, you don't know that Academician Lin brought a lot of people here today. I was almost scared to death."

As Yu Yue'er spoke, she threw herself into Xu Jinhuai's arms, crying and shaking all over, as if she was really frightened.

Seeing this, Xu Jinhuai patted her back gently and said in a soft voice, "I'm sorry to have frightened Yue'er."

"Has the matter been resolved?"

Yu Yue'er raised her tearful face, looked at Xu Jinhuai aggrievedly and said, "Don't worry, my husband, Yue'er has solved it. Academician Lin will never come to us for compensation again."

Xu Jinhuai was a little surprised, "You have already given him the silver?"

Where did Yueyao get so much money?
Yu Yue'er shook her head, tears still hanging on her eyelashes, looking very pitiful.

"There is no money left in this house. How can Yue'er afford to compensate Academician Lin?"

After that, she leaned into Xu Jinhuai's arms again and said in an extremely gentle voice: "I just listened to the prince consort and cut off my relationship with Qingbai, so that we don't have to bear the consequences of his misfortune."

"What?" Xu Jinhuai suddenly pushed Yu Yue'er away from his arms.

Yu Yue'er lost her balance and bumped into the bed frame, causing a sharp pain in her back.

Her eyes turned red and tears began to fall again, "Husband, you hurt me."

Xu Jinhuai did not coax her as he did in the past, but continued to ask: "What do you mean by clearing the relationship? What do you mean by that?"

Yu Yue'er cried and explained: "Didn't my husband say that Qingbai is an evil creature, isn't he your son?"

"So, I listened to my husband and wrote a letter of severance with Qingbai. This way, Qingbai is no longer our child, and we don't have to pay the 50,000 taels."

Xu Jinhuai couldn't believe what he heard.

He grabbed Yu Yue'er and brought her to him, saying, "I was in a bad mood today and said that in anger. How could you take it seriously? You even broke off your engagement with Qing Bai!"

"Do you know that Han Yue still needs his help in this year's autumn exam?"

Yu Yue'er's arm was hurt by Xu Jinhuai's grip. She felt even more wronged and cried, "How could I know that my husband was just speaking in anger?"

"Besides, Qingbai has been filial since he was young. Even if the relationship is severed, he is still your son, my husband. He will still listen to what you say. How can it affect Han Yue's imperial examination?"

After hearing this, the anger on Xu Jinhuai's face faded a little, but his expression was still very ugly.

Xu Qingbai is indeed a filial child and has never disobeyed him since he was a child.

He glared at Yu Yue'er unhappily, "It'd better be as you said, otherwise Han Yue's future will be ruined by you!"

Yu Yueer said aggrievedly: "Han Yue is my biological son, how dare I mess with his career." "And when we broke up today, Qing Bai said that he didn't blame us, that it was his own fault and he had to bear all the consequences."

Xu Jinhuai let go of Yu Yue'er's arm and snorted coldly, "This is his own fault, so he should bear the consequences."

He had always thought that although Xu Qingbai was ugly, he was a sensible man after all. He never expected that he could cause such a disaster.

It's really worrying.

Let's just break off the relationship. After all, Xu Qingbai's appearance is too...
He didn't want anyone to know that he, Xu Jin, was pregnant with such an ugly son.

However, to be on the safe side, he still planned to go find Xu Qingbai tomorrow to see if Xu Qingbai could still be used by him and Han Yue.

The next day.

When Xu Jinhuai asked someone to go to Fanglan Academy to find Xu Qingbai, Xu Qingbai was already waiting near the entrance of the academy.

He knew that if Xu Jinhuai knew that Yu Yue'er had broken off the engagement with him, he would definitely meet him in person.

After all, his son is still of great use to Xu Jinhuai.

Following the servant into the private room reserved by Xu Jinhuai, Xu Qingbai immediately saw Xu Jinhuai sitting at the table.

When Xu Jinhuai saw the scar on Xu Qingbai's face, he immediately looked away and didn't even notice that he had a scar on his face.

But even so, Xu Qingbai still caught a hint of disgust in Xu Jinhuai's eyes.

He couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, but he respectfully called out, "Father."

Xu Jinhuai said with a dark face: "You still know that I am your father?"

"Then where did you remember what I told you to do? Didn't I tell you to be patient in everything? Why did you fight with your classmates?"

Xu Qingbai explained: "Father, that's not the case. They were disgusted by their son's ugly face and forced him to drop out of school. When he refused, they refused to give up and wanted to beat him until he dropped out."

"My son hid in Academician Lin's study to protect himself, but he accidentally damaged the academician's collection of paintings."

Xu Jinhuai glanced at Xu Qingbai's face again. He really couldn't bear to look at it. No wonder he was ostracized.

He continued with a dark face, "Even so, you caused the disaster yourself, so just take care of it yourself. Don't expect me to help you in the slightest."

A barely perceptible chill crossed the corners of Xu Qingbai's mouth.

This is his biological father. Not only did he let others steal his life, but he also never cared about his life or death.

"It should be so. Don't worry, father. I will not implicate you and mother." He clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves and tried to make his tone sound respectful.

Xu Jinhuai was very satisfied with Xu Qingbai's answer. He took a sip of tea and said calmly, "I heard that your mother wrote a letter of severance of the relationship with you?"

"Yes, yes." Xu Qingbai raised his head, looking lost and sad.

Xu Jinhuai was not moved at all, but asked tentatively: "Do you hate us for this?"

Xu Qingbai shook his head quickly, "The kindness of parents is greater than heaven. Besides, it was my son who implicated you this time. I don't even have time to blame myself and regret it, so how can I resent my father and mother?"

Hearing this, Xu Jinhuai's worries were somewhat relieved.

He poured himself another cup of tea, took a few sips, and slowly said, "It's good that you understand this principle."
