Bab 570: They Were Just Fighting Back

Rong Qi was speechless. She wondered, 'Why Ye Nanshen was so fixated on sending our daughter to an island. Did he really want her isolated from the world?'

In truth, Ye Nanshen was just afraid his innocent and adorable daughter would be wooed away by other men. So, he wanted to hide both his daughter and Rong Qi on an island.

Mrs. Hong looked at Ye Nanshen and sighed, 'Master Shen was constantly talking about his daughter. What would happen if they had a son? Would he have any status at all? And surely, Mr. Sheng from next door would want to have a say.'

After Rong Qi was brought back to Clearcreek Mansion by Ye Nanshen, she was ordered to stay in bed and rest. 

Lu Chengzhou came to check Rong Qi's pulse as usual, then hastily left, not daring to linger.

Bored in bed, Rong Qi was accompanied by Ye Nanshen, who read stories to her and soothed her to sleep. Only after she fell asleep did Ye Nanshen regain his usual cold demeanor and leave the room.
