Chapter 641: You're the First One Who Discovered It

Clearly, Qi Minlan was the victim that had been betrayed and hurt. However, Shi Peng could not associate the word 'sympathy' with Qi Minlan at all.

Qi Minlan was completely taken aback. Upon hearing Shi Peng's words, she then recalled that she seemed to have mentioned these to Shi Qing before.

Shi Qing suspected that Qiu Qin had a mistress with just those few words of hers. Was Shi Qing too sensitive or was she, the wife, just too slow to react? "You didn't lie to me? Qing Qing is just a child. How would she know so much?"

Shi Peng took a sip of water. "Yes, Qing Qing is just a child. She doesn't know a lot but even she suspected that there's a problem with Qiu Qin. As his wife, you knew anything. Qi Minlan, tell me where the problem lies. Since you know that Qing Qing is just a child, please don't disturb her again in the future. After she came to Ping Cheng, she had not received much help from you, her auntie. At the very least, as an elder, you should not look make trouble for Qing Qing. Now, you want to trouble me, and honestly, you've basically troubled me a lot."

Qi Minlan held the cup of coffee in her hands tightly. "Brother, you're really not going to bother about me?"

"What do you think?" Shi Peng sneered. Until this moment, Qi Minlan had yet to realize how serious he was this time?

"Brother, you only have one biological sister, and I've been bullied by others. Will you really let Qiu Qin tread on me and watch how pitiful I become?" Qi Minlan refused to believe this. Since a young age, her brother had been very good to her. Regardless of how willful and bad-tempered she was, her brother had never taken any issue with her.

Her brother had been so good to her. How could he not bother about her anymore? He did not bother about her in the previous incident and then now. He must be deliberately frightening her to make her restrain her behavior a little.

"Qi Minlan, you still don't understand my words? Now, it's not whether I wish to bother about your problems. It's because I don't have the capability to do so. I've already submitted my resignation letter. The superiors have approved my resignation in principle. Hence, I'll be leaving the army very soon. Even if I don't return to Mo Du and continue to stay in Ping Cheng, you should know that I'll be holding a retirement job at most. You've been married to the Qiu family for so many years, so you should be more aware of the temperament of the Qiu family than me. If I'm doing worse than Qiu Qin, do you think the Qiu family will give me face even if I wish to intervene in this?"

"Since you knew that it would turn out in this way, why did you have to quit! Don't tell me you wish to see me dead?!" Qi Minlan knew she was used to behaving like a tyrant in the Qiu family these last few years. In the past, the Qiu family had to give her face and show her respect. If she lost her backing, the situation would be reversed such that she would have to yield to the Qiu family.

Clearly, she had been leading such a good life. Why did her brother have to resign?

"If you want to die, can I stop you? It's your happiness. Should I be the one to promise you that? Qi Minlan, do you take it that I owe it to you?" Shi Peng gave a ridiculous laugh. So, the purpose of his existence was to provide for Qi Minlan's happiness?

"I don't know when you will change that temperament of yours. You have to see what to do yourself. After all, you're the one leading your own life. If you wish to look for someone to back you up, I can't. I can't do so in terms of both literary and military aspects. I can't help you in any way. You can look for Dad directly regarding all your future matters."

Shi Peng was also disappointed and tired of this. He had forsaken so much for his family, yet his biological father had never spared a thought for him and his sister had been taking him for granted. If he did not treat her well, she would take it that as a crime.
