Qin Shu smiled. “Master is just saying that. You’re not me, so how would you know what I went through after losing Mommy? Mommy had only passed away for seven days, and Qin Hai officially made his mistress his legal wife. I didn’t just lose Mommy. I also lost my home.”

Qin Shu said it casually because this matter had passed. She had experienced it and grew up.

She brought it up again because she wanted Feng Jiuxiao to know how selfish he was. He was so selfish that she lost her mother’s love and even her home.

After Feng Jiuxiao took Ling’er away, he didn’t pay attention to Qin Hai and Xiao Bao. He didn’t know that after he took Ling’er away, Qin Hai would find a mistress so quickly.

So when he heard her words, he was still stunned for two seconds because he didn’t expect it.

“Your daddy doesn’t treat you well?”

“Hasn’t Master heard the saying that having a stepmother is equivalent to having a stepfather? Not to mention that he isn’t…” my biological father.

Qin Shu said as she looked up at Feng Jiuxiao. The last few words suddenly stuck in her throat.

Feng Jiuxiao had lived for so many years. Not only had he experienced the country’s great storms, but he also knew the role of a stepfather and stepmother.

His father had married thrice and had nine sons and eleven daughters.

He had seen the differential treatment many times.

It was just that his father favored him a little.

He turned his head to look at Qin Shu. She had not slept the whole night. There were noticeable dark circles under her eyes and a hint of fatigue.

When he took Ling’er away, she was only fourteen or fifteen years old. She was a little girl that anyone would adore. He thought that without her mommy, her daddy would treat her better.

But…

“If Master had known, I would definitely take you with me.”

He reached out and rubbed her head, comforting her just like when she was young.

The familiar movements made Qin Shu seem to return to her childhood times. When she first arrived at Qi Mountain, she was only a few months away from turning ten years old.

At that time, although Master used Jin Cheng’s appearance, his cold aura was still very different from Jin Cheng’s.

Master was really cold and distant at that time, and he did not say anything.

She was unfamiliar with the place. Besides her being the only apprentice, there were only Master and some female servants and bodyguards on the mountain.

She followed behind Master all day long, but Master basically ignored her. He only said the necessary homework to do every day and nothing else.

After going up the mountain for a month, it suddenly rained heavily that night.

She had not seen her mommy for a month. She was only nine years old, and she began to miss her mommy. When she thought about how cold Master was, she started to cry without warning.

That night, it was probably the first time Master came to check on her. He realized that she was crying very hard, and just like how he was now, he rubbed her head to comfort her.

At that time, she realized that although Master was cold, he was still a good person. Therefore, she became bolder and lost the restraint she had when she first came to the mountain.

“Master didn’t bring me with you back then because I’m Qin Hai’s daughter, right? You also treated me well only because my mommy’s name is Long Ziling.”

Before Qin Shu finished her sentence, the hand above her head suddenly stopped. Perhaps it was because she had said touched him deeply, or maybe because she exposed his selfish side, he withdrew his hand again.

He had never denied his selfishness.

When he chose Ling’er, he was a selfish person.

There was a moment of silence.

The corners of Qin Shu’s mouth curled up into a self-deprecating smile because she was right. If Master knew that she was not Qin Hai’s daughter but possibly his, he would not have left her alone back then.

She lowered her head and looked at the food in the food box. Ye Luo had followed her for so long and knew her preferences at the back of his hand. Therefore, he had prepared her favorite food.

However, she really had no appetite.

After a long silence, Feng Jiuxiao’s clear and cold voice sounded. “I’m good to you, not just because of Ling’er.”

He turned his head to look at Qin Shu, and his eyes softened a little. “It’s because I like you.”

Qin Shu was very likable, especially when she was throwing a tantrum. It made people feel that they no longer had a temper all of a sudden and only wanted to pamper her.

Qin Shu’s body stiffened. She probably didn’t expect Feng Jiuxiao to say such a thing because he had never said it before after so many years as master and disciple.

Feng Jiuxiao said, “I don’t deny that I didn’t take you away because you are Qin Hai’s daughter. But it’s also because I can’t guarantee when Ling’er will recover her memories with you by her side.”

In the past, Feng Jiuxiao was cold and noble, and no one dared to blaspheme against him. So, he had never said these words before.

Perhaps because he was older, he spoke a little more than before.

Qin Shu raised her head to look at Feng Jiuxiao. The forbearance between his brows and his stubborn character suddenly reminded her of Fu Tingyu. If she were to put herself in his shoes, she could probably understand what Master was afraid of.

“I understand why Master is like this.” She said these words in a low voice.

Feng Jiuxiao knew the purpose of Qin Shu coming here. He said, “I will not let Ling’er leave.”

“Master is really extremely selfish. But have you ever thought about the day when my mom regained her memory and discovered that everyone around her was lying to her? Knowing that even the person closest to her, whom she trusted the most, had been lying to her for so many years, how sad would she be?” Qin Shu retorted.

Feng Jiuxiao paused when he heard that. He could not imagine that scene. He knew Ling’er too well. She would not hesitate to leave him.

“I will continue to erase her memory.” He replied with certainty.

Qin Shu saw that Master was so persistent and said, “Then why don’t you think on the bright side? If Mommy regains her memory, you will be able to be together harmoniously.”

Feng Jiu Xiao said, “She’s pregnant. If she knew, do you think she would keep this child that’s hard to come by?”

Qin Shu was stunned when she heard that. The news came too suddenly, and she was not prepared at all.

“My mom is pregnant? How long has it been?”

“It’s only been a while.” Feng Jiuxiao felt that Xiao Jiu brought this child because Ling’er had had it when Xiao Jiu came.

The doctor was right. It had a lot to do with one’s mood.

Qin Shu did not know what to say. Having a younger brother and sister should be a happy thing, but when she thought about how her mommy had been deceived all this time, she could not be happy.

“Then, have you ever suspected that I’m not Qin…” Hai’s daughter.

Before Qin Shu could finish her words, the door of the Intensive Care Unit opened from the inside. A nurse wearing an anti-bacterial suit said softly, “The patient has woken up and wants to meet his parents.”

Qin Shu couldn’t care less about anything else. She put down the food box in her hand and stood up, wanting to go in.

However, she was stopped by the nurse. “You have to put on the anti-bacterial suit first before you can go in.”

Only then did Qin Shu realize that in a moment of panic, she had forgotten that this was not a normal ward and she needed to wear the anti-bacterial suit.

She hurriedly went next door to change into the anti-bacterial suit before she anxiously walked in.

Feng Jiuxiao glanced at the food box on the chair that no one cared about. He retracted his gaze and stood up. He walked to the door of the Intensive Care Unit. Through the small glass window, he could see the situation inside.
