Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2848: Chapter 2846: How Did It End Up Like This

But good fortune is often strewn with obstacles. She had thought that once Nangong Beiying was pregnant, happiness would come along, but who could have expected such a predicament, directly inciting Mrs. Xiao’s anger.

But this really has nothing to do with Yingying, isn’t she the one in the most danger?

She had heard that the attack was actually aimed at her, and it was Xiao Qi who took the fatal blow, which is why he is the one lying in the hospital.

Otherwise, the one lying in the hospital now would have been Nangong Beiying.

And Nangong Beiying is pregnant, so it wouldn’t have been just one life at stake, but two, which speaks volumes about how unbearable that outcome would be.

Such an outcome, let alone for Nangong Beiying herself, even watching from a distance would be hard to accept.

Furthermore, to a large extent, Qin Xue feels that Xiao Qi taking that blow for her makes things more tolerable. Although thinking this way is somewhat inconsiderate, even cold, such circumstances are not entirely impossible.

Precisely because of this, Qin Xue chose not to say much, otherwise with how the Xiaos treat Nangong Beiying, it would be unexpected if nothing happened.

No matter how much she may keep to herself, everyone has their own limits, or else they’d be bullied constantly.

Moreover, these kinds of incidents are not uncommon, and everyone is aware of the circumstances.

Isn’t it just because Nangong Beiying didn’t grow up in the Imperial Capital, and then returned pregnant, they look down on her and consider her indecent?

These situations are indeed rare, but for Qin Xue, it isn’t unprecedented. Otherwise, she wouldn’t let Nangong Beiying retaliate directly.

They’re modern women now; why should they let others treat them this way? Besides, the child in her belly is Xiao Qi’s; letting people disdain them to this extent doesn’t make sense, does it?

So when Qin Xue says such things, she’s not wrong, because Nangong Beiying isn’t inherently weak; it’s only due to Xiao Qi’s life-saving act that she is more forgiving, otherwise, her easygoing manner would be unimaginable.

Since joining the military, she has changed a lot, but the core things engraved in her bones remain unchanged.

Thus Qin Xue doesn’t see anything wrong with Nangong Beiying’s behavior, but rather thinks she is stronger.

”Is it that serious, is there no way out?” Chu Molin didn’t think such a result would lead to great miracles, since Qin Xue hadn’t mentioned anything further. But he still hoped Xiao Qi could wake up within the prescribed time.

”We don’t know yet, everything is still to be waited on; if he doesn’t wake up, we’ll have to have people he cares about talk about old happy memories to stimulate him. Talking to him frequently is very helpful for his recovery.” Qin Xue admitted there’s nothing else she could say; such matters aren’t up to her will but rather the circumstances.

”How did it come to this?” Qing Tian had not been home when it happened, so he didn’t know the situation. Xue Ling had only briefed him on Qin Xue’s whereabouts, nothing else.

Now that he saw Qin Xue return, he thought she might know something about it.

”I only heard someone intended to kill Yingying, Xiao Qi shielded her from a bullet...” Qin Xue explained Xiao Qi’s condition.

”Is that so? So, someone wants the Nangong family to collapse, or perhaps, wants another ruler for the Nangong family.” Chu Molin analyzed the situation here.

Under the stewardship of Nangong Beiying, the eldest young lady, the Nangong family has prospered, blocking quite a few profit avenues for others. Although some can’t do anything about them, it does not prevent those who are bold from wanting to make a move.

And such an outcome would certainly involve the disappearance of Nangong Beiying.
