Black Bellied Belle: Demon Lord, Bite The Bait Please Chapter 13.1: Furore At The Apothecary’s

“What’s so despicable about that? As long as it works.” Qing Yu shrugged her shoulders. “Moreover, although the two of them are a little arrogant and domineering, they are not truly that venomous at heart, so I can’t really be bothered to deal with them seriously. It’s good enough to just scare them off.”

Qing Bei’s gaze then unconsciously softened.

He had seen his elder sister when she had killed without mercy. But this young lady here was actually gentle and kind hearted deep in her bones, harbouring a benevolent heart inside.

Being like that, she had actually unconsciously drawn the eyes of many.

“Sis, they had come just to jeer at us. By this time, Father would have come back from the palace and there would be a welcoming feast in the manor. And we…..” As Qing Bei spoke, his voice grew softer. “Children of lady concubines are not entitled to attend it.”

Without a doubt, a sharp rap was delivered right onto the top of his head and the youth cried out softly from the pain.

“The thing you need to do now is to cultivate and become stronger. Instead of thinking of attending the welcoming banquet, why not spend that time cultivating instead. When the time comes and you can stand tall to shine, who wouldn’t be scrambling to come try win your favour? Would you then still lack this cheap father of yours at that time?”

Qing Yu did not like seeing him show such an expression.

Longing for the care and concern of kinship, longing for just one charitable gaze from that so called father.

Pfft, what’s kinship? Before money and benefits, everything could be betrayed.

Again. That look in her eyes that seemed to care about nothing.

Having been together for six years, he would often see these eyes on Qing Yu that looked like they could pierce into people.

Icy cold, apathetic. Like nothing before that pair of beautiful eyes was worth her time.

She must have been hurt very deeply before.

Qing Bei bit his lip and held her hand. “I’m sorry Sis. I’ve said that I will not make you angry again. I’ve broken my promise.”

“I am not angry.” Qing Yu shook her head. “But it’s just that I do not want to see you looking so sad and feeling so inferior of yourself. I had thought that you had woken up to your senses in that big fire and decided henceforth that the only person you could trust is just me.”

“Little Bei, you are highly outstanding and there is no need for you to engage in self pity. The day will come where Yan Su will regret he neglected such a brilliant son.”

I will definitely become strong. I will make you proud!” Qing Bei suddenly proclaimed solemnly, the expression on his face serious. He wanted to see Qing Yu smile, a smile that came right from her heart.

“I believe you will.” The young lady’s eyes were gentle, the ends of her lips slightly lifted. A sliver of sunlight spilled upon the pretty face that was enchanting as a fox, like it was bathed in saintly brilliance, blindingly enchanting.

Even a strong hearted youth like Qing Bei could not help but unconsciously felt his heart feel a moment of bedazzlement.

His Big Sister was really….. just so beautiful!

No wonder those two women had turned so red and went running away frantically…..

Qing Bei then went on to continue cultivating. To not let anyone come disturb him, Qing Yu then set up a barrier around him till the yard outside.

Getting interrupted while immersed in cultivation might drive one to fall into devilry and she would not want the little kid she had looked after for so many years to be destroyed just like that.

And she also had more important things to deal with now as well.

The seven day deadline had passed and she had not forgotten that she still had to go pay back a debt. Counting the days….. the effects of that elixir was about to run out.

She gave a helpless sigh. In these times, one can owe people any number of things, but just not a debt like this.

With just one look and it could be seen that those two men were no ordinary people. Even though she had lived for so many years, she was not entirely confident she could deal with them. So, she had better play it safe!

Troublesome things like this….. She hated it the most.
