Chapter 1660: 1660 Valley Master’s Gift1

At the same time, he also understood in his heart that her actions were not out of pretentiousness, but rather... she was completely severing ties with him.

He suddenly shouted, "Li Mu!"

Guard Li Mu hurried into the hall, "What are your orders, Valley Master?"

"I am infuriated by Su Qingyue, quickly help me to recuperate!"

"...Yes." Li Mu assisted the Valley Master as they walked outside the courtyard.

The Valley Master’s heavy steps were like lead, clearly showing just how enraged he was.

He kindly said, "Master, you are already seriously injured. Last night, you were fatigued at Miss Wei’s place, and now you’ve been infuriated by your ex-wife. Please, don’t let your anger get the better of you." He didn’t know that Wei Qingyi’s body had been ’broken’ by Yang An; as a loyal subordinate, he saw that the master needed support and naturally offered a reminder.

Xiao Yuchuan first observed Su Qingyue’s reaction, seeing that she still showed no expression. Furious and even more agitated, he glared at Li Mu, "Mind your business!"

"I only have your best interests at heart, master."

Xiao Yuchuan just hoped his lungs wouldn’t explode at that moment.

He feared that if he didn’t leave the hall soon, he wouldn’t be able to resist strangling his wife, to see how poisonous her heart had truly become!

Su Qingyue watched as Xiao Yuchuan walked away without any reaction, merely instructing the servants to clear up the bowl and chopsticks on the table before she began to peruse a medical book.

Xiao Yuchuan had placed many medical books in the cabinet of the room. As she was now temporarily staying there, it was harmless to read one.

...

Wei Qingyi had been waiting in the room from morning until noon, expecting some rewards from the Valley Master, but instead, Xiao Lu informed her that the Valley Master instructed her to return to her original room for sleep, and she couldn’t even stay in this ordinary guest room!

"That can’t be?" Wei Qingyi couldn’t believe it, "Did the Valley Master really have no other arrangements?"

"None," said the maid Xiao Lu, "Guard Li Mu conveyed the message on behalf of the Valley Master. I won’t be able to continue serving you this afternoon; I have to return to my original duties in the laundry."

"No... It can’t be..." Wei Qingyi’s steps were a bit unsteady, and the faint pain between her legs reminded her that she had already become the Valley Master’s woman. How could he possibly send her back to her original residence?

She had previously lived in the servants’ quarters with her father.

Although her father was a housekeeper and she had a small courtyard to herself, it was still a servant’s living place.

Could it be that after taking her purity, the Valley Master really had no intentions of making any gesture?

"Miss, I have many clothes to wash, I will go get busy now." Xiao Lu thought to herself that Wei Qingyi, as a woman who had just gained favor, had already started looking down on others. She couldn’t wait for her to fall out of favor.

Fearing that Wei Qingyi might regain the Valley Master’s favor sometime, Xiao Lu politely excused herself.

Wei Qingyi sat dazed on the bed, thinking that surely the Valley Master treated her differently. She never expected him to pretend nothing had happened!

The Valley Master must be testing her!

There were countless women wanting to become the Valley Master’s wife. Surely, the Valley Master didn’t want to marry an ambitious woman.

Upon realizing this, she immediately acted as if nothing had happened and left the courtyard to return to her own room. As soon as she entered, she saw several bolts of high-quality silk on the table, and a jewelry box.

Delighted, she walked over and touched the luxurious silk. She recognized it was the high-grade Su Satin that the Valley Master had recently sent people to purchase.

Indeed, the Valley Master still treated her differently!

She opened the jewelry box, expecting to find valuable jewelry inside, but found only a pair of jade earrings. Judging by their color and texture, they were of medium to upper quality—not cheap, but not exceptionally precious either.
