Chapter 273: Loving Fathers Often Spoil Their Children

"Sister...you might have misheard. Yulu...didn't say that!"

Qi Yulu was panicking inside, but she firmly denied it on the surface!

Everyone could see that she was acting guilty and was trying to shirk responsibility.

My disgust for her immediately intensified!

Upon hearing this, Pei Yuanjun's face immediately darkened, a sign that a storm was about to break.

Lou Chen and Zhao Baoye also coldly swept their eyes over Qi Yulu, who was kneeling on the ground, their eyes filled with murderous intent!
Qi Yulu shrank back in fear, trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible. Their expressions suddenly became terrifying!
"Since my wife wants you to 'become successful' as soon as possible, then we won't keep you here anymore. Someone, take Qi Yulu out! She must not be allowed to come in again until she reaches my wife's level!"

"Yes!" Shi An suppressed a laugh and ushered Qi Yulu out.
Qi Yulu didn't want to leave, so Shi An silenced her by pressing her pressure point and then picked her up and threw her out.

Qi Yunran: "..." With the Emperor here, don't you care about your image at all?

Didn't you see that she herself took a roundabout route?
Why is it that this fool Pei Yuanjun just won't get it?

She glared at Pei Yuanjun with hidden resentment. Pei Yuanjun frowned innocently. Why was his wife glaring at him for no reason?

Then Qi Yunran came to Lou Chen and said, "Young Master Lou, you flatter me. My younger sister is unruly and mischievous. As her older sister, I can only force myself to be ruthless and reluctant to part with her."

Let her grow up strong on her own, otherwise I'm afraid she'll become a disgrace to the Qi family! After all, you can't rely on anyone else; only through your own efforts can you live the life you want!
"And Pei Yuanjun isn't usually like this. He's actually a very good person. How could Shi An have done that? I forced my husband to do it! Sigh! It's all his fault for always being so soft-hearted, always so doting on this younger sister. I was afraid he'd spoil her, so I threatened him not to extend a friendly hand to her. After all, a loving mother often favors her son, oh! And a loving father too!" Pei Yuanjun had initially felt disgusted and wanted to protest when Qi Yunran said he doted on Qi Yulu, but upon hearing his wife's later words, he immediately understood her intention. She was speaking up for him and protecting his image!

He was overjoyed and laughed like a fool; his wife was protecting him!

Zhao Baoye was struggling to suppress his laughter! His face was flushed red. The virtuous wife's absurd arguments kept coming up, but upon closer listening, they made perfect sense.

However, he and the Emperor knew Pei Yuanjun better than she did what kind of person he was! The fact that she would defend him—was it because the Emperor was punishing Pei Yuanjun? She was somewhat unhappy!
Lou Chen chuckled and teased, "If she really isn't doing as well as you, would you help her?"

Qi Yunran raised an eyebrow; she had deliberately set a trap for her!

With a quick glance and a sudden inspiration, he loudly retorted, "No way!"

Lou Chen was somewhat surprised, and Pei Yuanjun and Zhao Baoye also looked at her in astonishment!
I thought she would come up with another quirky excuse for herself.
Unexpectedly, she rejected it outright!

"Why?" Lou Chen asked patiently.
Qi Yunran raised an eyebrow and smiled domineeringly: "Her life is her own, and how she wants to live it is her own choice. I am just her sister, but I can't live this life for her. I can control her for a while, but I can't control her forever!"
Ultimately, she has to face this world on her own! She needs to learn to fly bravely on her own, and understand that no one can accompany anyone forever! After all, people are born, grow old, get sick, and die; the moon waxes and wanes! Everyone should shine brightly in their own world, instead of trying to rely on others and become a parasite!

Lou Chen stared intently at Qi Yunran: "Your wife truly understands life thoroughly, and has grasped its true meaning. I deeply admire you!"
