Chapter 828: Evening Feast XVII
However, Qin Xiaoyue had resolutely distanced herself from Luo Fei when he was in danger.
Luo Fei could not help feeling bitterly disappointed. He had even entrusted her mother and daughter to Qin Xiaoyue just now. It was utterly absurd beyond words.
However, Luo Fei understood that he could not blame Qin Xiaoyue. As the saying goes, husband and wife are like two birds living in the same forest but fly away in separate directions when disaster strikes. Moreover, Qin Xiaoyue was not his wife yet.
"Xiaoyue... you promised that you would get the Grandmaster Hai Rong to treat my mother. Since I have always been treating you so well, I beg to keep your promise." Luo Fei closed his eyes gently, and opened them again slowly.
Startled, Qin Fei'er stared at Qin Xiaoyue. Since when had the Grandmaster Hai Rong agreed to treat the old lady of the Luo family? Qin Fei'er had never heard about this.
Qin Xiaoyue did not expect Luo Fei to say this in public. Her face turned ghastly pale.
"Get Hai Rong to treat people?" Startled, Qian Kun asked.
"He had once vowed that he would never treat anyone for the rest of his life. I have discussed with him about the Mu family's old master in the past two days. I asked him about this. He told me that he had treated the Mu family's old master as he owed the Mu family a favor. He would never treat anyone else for the rest of his life."
Qian Kun paused for a while and continued saying, "As Qin Xiaoyue does not know Hai Rong, why would Hai Rong help her?"
Even Qian Kun would not simply treat just anyone. He was here in the chief manor as he owed the manor master a favor. He treated the Mu family's old master as the old master was Qian Kun's casual acquaintance. He could not bear to see the old master suffer.
He would not simply treat anyone no matter how much they were willing to pay.
Luo Fei panicked.
"Previously, Xiaoyue had accidentally hurt Li'er hand. I asked her to apologize to Li'er but she told me that she could ask Qin Fei'er to get the Grandmaster Hai Rong to treat my mother as Qin Fei'er is very close to Mu Huan. The Grandmaster Hai Rong had treated Mu Huan so well. If the Grandmaster Hai Rong knew that I have asked Qin Xiaoyue to apologize to Li'er, he would not treat my mother...
"She promised me! It must be a lie! I won't believe it!"
Although Luo Fei loved Qin Xiaoyue, Luo Li was his daughter. He had hurt his own daughter's feelings because of his mother. Everything he did, he did it for his mother. Since Li'er was so close to his mother, Li'er would definitely understand Luo Fei in the future.
However, it turned out that everything was a lie!
"Aunt! How could you deceive others using my name? I am close to Huan'er but I don't know the Grandmaster Hai Rong. How could I have been able to get him to help?" Qin Fei'er's eyes were blazing with fury as she glared at Qin Xiaoyue in disbelief.
It was fine if the Grandmaster Hai Rong was still treating people. However, everyone knew that the Grandmaster Hai Rong would never treat anyone anymore. Why did Qin Xiaoyue do this?
Luo Fei grabbed his hair tightly with his fists.
Only when Qin Fei'er had finished her words, Luo Fei raised his head and looked dazedly at Qin Xiaoyue. His voice was full of overflowing anger.
"You lied to me?"
"Stop the nonsense! I did not say that. Luo Fei, as you have treated me so well, I did not tell others what you have done. I have never thought that you would make up this story and make me a scapegoat." Qin Xiaoyue regained her composure and snorted.
