After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

Chapter 472 The seeds of doubt have been planted

If Xiao Jingyi punished Lin Qingyi for such a trivial matter in front of everyone in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, he would be in the wrong.

The reason why he accompanied Lin Qingrou back today was actually to see if he could have a chance to make Jamel Xiao and Lin Qingyao unhappy. He couldn't let Jamel Xiao get a hold of him before he had done anything.

No matter how wronged Lin Qingrou was, it was not worth it for him to do this. Xiao Jingyi would not be stupid enough to do a business that was doomed to lose money.

"So this is just the concern between you sisters, it's not a big deal. Rou'er, don't take it too seriously, they are doing this for your own good. Today is a family reunion day, don't ruin everyone's mood."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingrou looked at Xiao Jingyi in disbelief. She really couldn't believe that he could let the matter go so easily.

She had just put so much effort into pretending to be weak and aggrieved, which aroused the anger in Xiao Jingyi's heart.

Who would have thought that she could be fooled by Lin Qingyi and Lin Qingyao with just a few words? How could Lin Qingrou not be angry?

Lin Qingrou had no idea of ​​what was going on in Xiao Jingyi's mind, so she naturally couldn't understand why he would just let go of Lin Qingyi, who had cursed their child.

Xiao Jingyi was clearly very angry and wanted to punish Lin Qingyi just now, how could he suddenly change so drastically?

After thinking it over, Lin Qingrou could only focus her attention on Lin Qingyao.

The only variable was that Lin Qingyao helped to speak up. Lin Qingrou couldn't help but wonder if Xiao Jingyi did this because of Lin Qingyao.

Xiao Jingyi clearly looked down on Lin Qingyao in the past, so why does he care so much about what she says now? Could it be that his previous attitude towards Lin Qingyao was all fake?

Once the seeds of doubt are planted in your heart, they cannot be easily erased, and will gradually grow and spread, becoming uncontrollable.

Recalling all the efforts Xiao Jingyi had made to get Lin Qingyao, Lin Qingrou became more and more suspicious that he really wanted Lin Qingyao to be his principal wife, and that what he said to her was just a lie to get her help.

Lin Qingrou didn't care about Xiao Jingyi before, so she didn't think deeply about these things. As long as she could become the most noble woman in the Great Qi Kingdom in the end, it would be fine.

Now that she is pregnant, she can no longer be indifferent to Xiao Jingyi.

Once people start to care, they will look ahead and behind, and their thoughts will increase.

Just a small thing can make people nervous, and it is difficult to dispel doubts easily.

Although Lin Qingrou was disappointed, she still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that she and her child would matter more to Xiao Jingyi than Lin Qingyao.

So Lin Qingrou tried hard to argue: "Your Majesty, don't be fooled by their words. It's not that I'm suspicious, but Lin Qingyi has bad intentions."

Xiao Jingyi originally wanted to say this to smooth over the matter and pretend that nothing had happened.

Who would have thought that Lin Qingrou would be so relentless and even say such things in front of so many people, which was obviously contrary to his idea.

But everyone was watching, and if Xiao Jingyi scolded Lin Qingrou, he would lose face.

After all, Lin Qingrou is now his concubine, not a girl from the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion.

Xiao Jingyi could only force a smile and said to Lin Qingrou, "Rou'er, I know you are worried about your pregnancy. You can make a fuss in the palace, and I will obey you. But don't be so willful in the Marquis' Mansion, and don't make those who care about you worry."

Xiao Jingyi said this for others to hear, so that everyone could see that he was advising Lin Qingrou not to make a fuss, while also saving his own face.

But he took the opportunity to hold Lin Qingrou in his arms and whispered in her ear: "Rou'er, we are not right in this matter, and we won't get any benefit if we pursue it further. I know you don't like what Lin Qingyi said, but bear with it for now. She dared to curse our child, and I will find a chance to settle accounts with her later. Don't make trouble at this time, and listen to me outside."

Although Lin Qingrou understood Xiao Jingyi's explanation, she had already determined in her heart that Xiao Jingyi acted like this because of Lin Qingyao, so no matter how reasonable his other explanations were, she was unwilling to believe them.

But no matter how unwilling she was, she had to listen to Xiao Jingyi at this moment. She could not lose Xiao Jingyi's favor now.

Lin Qingrou could only nod obediently, "Your Highness is right, I was too excited just now. No mother can sit idly by when it comes to the child in my belly. Fourth sister, it was my fault just now. I misunderstood your good intentions. I am just a mother who cares too much about her child. Please don't blame me."

Lin Qingyi sneered when she heard this. Lin Qingrou was still as flexible as ever.

Just now, Xiao Jingyi clearly said something in Lin Qingrou's ear. Although she couldn't hear the content, it was obvious that he was asking her not to act unreasonably and affect him.

Lin Qingrou now thought that she was pregnant, and she must be dreaming of becoming a mother with a son, so she naturally listened to Xiao Jingyi's words.

So no matter how reluctant you are, you have to give in and even apologize to her.

If it were any other day, even if Lin Qingrou gave her this way out, Lin Qingyi would never take it.

But considering that today is the day when the second sister comes back to visit, Lin Qingyi doesn't want to ruin her good mood, so she doesn't plan to continue to entangle with Lin Qingrou, and just let the matter go.

Anyway, she had said all the things that needed to be satirized, and she had gotten rid of the anger in her heart, so she wasn't the one who suffered.

What's more, Lin Qingrou won't be able to be proud for a few days, so she can just wait to see Lin Qingrou make a fool of herself. There is no need to compete with her at this time.

So Lin Qingyi smiled slightly, "Third sister, what are you talking about? There is no need for us sisters to say these things. Just remember my 'kind' reminder just now."

Even though Lin Qingrou gritted her teeth in hatred, she couldn't show it on her face, so she could only smile and reply, "Yes, thank you for your kindness, Fourth Sister. I will definitely pay more attention to you."

Lin Yanting, who had been listening on the side, felt that his little daughter's mocking remarks about Lin Qingrou were very satisfying, but at the same time he was also worried for her.

After all, it seems that Prince Kang attaches great importance to Lin Qingrou and this child. If the little daughter really angers Prince Kang, it will not end well.

Fortunately, King Kang still had some brains and knew what was important. It was all a false alarm after all.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yanting hurriedly tried to smooth things over for his daughter, saying, "That's right. We are all family, how could there be any ill will? Yao'er is coming home today, and my parents are waiting to see her. Now that Rou'er and His Royal Highness Prince Kang are here, why don't they meet the two elders together? Rou'er hasn't been back since she married into Prince Kang's mansion, and I'm sure the two elders miss her very much. They will definitely be very happy to see Rou'er."
