Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce Chapter 399 – Nothing was more important than being alive  

When Qiao ruoi woke up, she felt her entire body aching. She was still looking at the bed curtain in her room. She got up and got off the bed to see everything she was familiar with. Only then did she know that she had not turned into a ghost. She was still alive.

She was still alive in this world, but Xie Yun's body could no longer support another bowl of blood for her.

Yan Yu and the other servant girl heard the commotion inside and rushed in.

Yan Yu was relieved when she saw Qiao ruoyi wake up. “Miss, you finally woke up. I really thought you would never wake up again. It would be great if you could wake up.”

Qiao ruoyi said to Yan Yu, “Xie Yun donated blood to me again?”

Yan Yu pursed her lips and did not dare to lie to Qiao Ruoyi. After all, Qiao Ruoyi's body was full of marks. She would probably discover it by herself when she was changing.

“Miss, Sir Xie just used another method to give you the antidote.”

Qiao ruoyi raised her hand in shock and anger and slapped Yan Yu hard on the face. “I trusted you so much, but you helped others to humiliate me?”

Yan Yu covered her face and knelt on the ground, kowtowing. “Miss, this servant doesn't want you to die so young. Last year, before General Luo passed away, his last words were also to hope that you could live well.

“Miss, this is not something between a man and a woman, but just a good medicine to save lives. What is more important than you being able to live!”

Qiao ruoyi saw the swelling on Yan Yu's face and felt both angry and guilty. In the end, Yan Yu was doing this for her own good.

“Someone, prepare hot water. I want to take a bath and boil a bowl of pill to avoid children!”There was no way Qiao Ruoyi would give birth to another son for Xie Yun.

Qiao Ruoyi was soaking in the bathtub. Looking at the marks on her body, her face was extremely dark.

Although Qiao Ruoyi liked Confucianism, she did not like the fact that some sour scholars looked down on women. They even gave women the right to be respectable.

Due to the influence of the aristocratic families, the customs among the aristocrats had always been open. It was common for men and women to fall in love before marriage. As long as they did not talk about illegitimate children, it would be fine.

Qiao Ruoyi did not really care about that time when she had sex with Xie Yun. Not to mention that she was unconscious, even if she was conscious, if she knew that she was poisoned, she would casually pull out a man's antidote.

To Qiao ruoyi, these false titles weren't that important.

But at that time, she didn't have a loved one in her heart. She wasn't willing to use this as an antidote because her heart was already occupied by Luo Wei. She was Luo Wei's wife for the rest of her life.

After having Luo Wei in her heart, how could she bear to have sex with another man?

Qiao ruoyi covered her lips and leaned against the bathtub, retching.

Qiao ruoyi took three days off before she returned to the imperial court.

When she entered the imperial court, she saw Xie Yun. Her eyes were filled with hatred as she looked at Xie Yun. She should not have gone easy on Xie Yun for Nichang's sake. She should not have been bullied by him like this!

After the imperial court, Xie Yun called out to Qiao ruoyi, “Fifth Miss Qiao, wait.”

Both sides were colleagues of the court. Qiao Ruoyi was after all someone who cared about face, so she could not cause a ruckus with Xie Yun in public.

Xie Yun said, “Fifth Miss Qiao, would you do me the honor of dining at the Hundred Savory restaurant this afternoon?”

“Okay.”

Qiao Ruoyi agreed. There were some things that she had to clearly explain to Xie Yun in person.

The business of the Hundred Savory Restaurant at noon was still very good.

It was hot outside in the summer, and there were ice cubes all over the place that were very cool. Therefore, many officials in Chang 'an liked to come to the savory restaurant and the Hundred Savory Restaurant for meals.

In a private room of the Hundred Savory restaurant, Qiao Ruoyi and Xie Yun sat opposite each other.

Xie Yun said, “Fifth Miss Qiao, what happened three days ago was an urgent matter. If I have offended you, it is to keep your life. I hope Miss Qiao will forgive me.”

Qiao ruoyi said seriously, “Thank you, sir. Then I will tell you again clearly. My husband is Luo Wei. My heart and body are Luo Wei's. I will not betray my husband, and I will not allow other men to touch me.

“If there is a next time, I will not let you off easily. I don't have long to live either. It would be better to die together!”

Xie Yun poured a glass of wine for Qiao Ruoyi.

Qiao ruoyi rejected Xie Yun's wine and said, “I still have to go to the yamen to handle official business in the afternoon, so I won't drink this wine.”

Xie Yun said, “Luo Wei has already been gone for more than a year. If he had a spirit in the sky, he definitely wouldn't want you to suffer and die. Don't worry, fifth Miss Qiao. I just purely want you to live. This matter doesn't concern men and women, so why do you care so much?”

Qiao ruoyi frowned.

Xie Yun continued to persuade her, “Fifth Miss Qiao, why don't you think about Aunt Hu? If you die, who will remember Aunt Hu in the future?

Aunt Hu's birthday, Aunt Hu's death day. Do you still want the Marquise, the mistress of the household, to handle it for a concubine?

Or do you want those “Relatives”of the Hu family to handle it? You can tell Nichang, but Nichang is only a young child. If she wants to take care of it, what will she do?

Aunt Hu has cut off her incense. Can you really leave with Peace of mind?”

Aunt Hu was originally a child of the Qiao family. Although her brothers were still alive, they were afraid that they would use aunt Hu's light to take care of some small villages outside. They only plundered Aunt Hu, they did not have the slightest brotherhood or sisterhood.

Why would they do these things for Aunt Hu?

Xie Yun narrowed her phoenix-like eyes and slowly said to Qiao ruoyi, “Aunt Hu is one. There's also Luo Wei..

Although Luo Wei is your Qiao family's son-in-law, if you were not around, who would make a big fuss about his anniversaries? Even if he was the son-in-law of the Qiao family, the Qiao family would do it for the sake of face.

Who would remember Luo Wei like you do? What kind of food would he like to eat?

If you were to die, everyone in the world would gradually forget about Luo Wei. Qiao ruoyi, in this world, nothing is more important than living. Luo Wei is alive, and I definitely hope that you can be happy for the rest of your life.”

Qiao ruoyi picked up the wine cup in front of her and drank it in one gulp. There was a teardrop at the corner of her eye. She could abandon Nichang because at least someone would take care of her.

Aunt Hu and Luo Wei, besides her, who else could be as empathetic as her to handle the funeral affairs for them?

She could not die. At least she had to wait until Nichang grew up and was able to organize these memorial days for Aunt Hu and burn joss sticks and paper money for Aunt Hu.

Xie Yun handed Qiao ruoyi a piece of paper and said, “This method is not more useful than blood, so it is best to cure it four times in a month. This is a garden in Chang 'an city. No one knows that it is my property.

“If you want to cure it, you can come to this garden. Besides you, me, Lanxin, and your personal maid, I will not let others know about this and make others gossip.”

Qiao ruoyi took the paper from Xie Yun's hand. After a long time, she sobbed, “Okay.”
