As he had never cared about Ge’er’s matters in the past, he always thought that Ge’er was treated the same way as Qin Youjiao was in the Qin family. However, he never expected their lack of concern for Ge’er would result in Ge’er having to face such treatment.

“I don’t have much. We can move everything in three trips.”

With that said, Qin Lang instantly moved forward and helped Pei Yunge move her heavy items without another word.

…

Seeing this, Pei Yunge furrowed her eyebrows, feeling that there was something wrong with Qin Lang. However, she didn’t say anything either and simply started to pack all of her necessities.

In a bedroom on the second floor.

Qin Youjiao had just finished applying the medicine and her mood was terrible. “Call Aunt Huang over.”

“Elder Young Miss, Aunt Huang, she…”

The maid’s expression was scared and timid. “She was chased away by Third Young Master.”

Hearing this, Qin Youjiao’s voice raised to a screech!

“What did you say? How could this be?!”

“A-Aunt Huang said that Second Young Miss is a lunatic in Third Young Master’s face.” The servant bowed her head down as she stammered, scared that Qin Youjiao would vent her anger on her.

And indeed, when Qin Youjiao heard the servant’s words, her expression darkened speedily.

However, amongst her anger, there was more fear and panic.

Why would Third Brother suddenly care for Pei Yunge?

Not only that, he even fired Aunt Huang for Pei Yunge. Wasn’t he indirectly slapping her in the face?!

“E-Elder Young Miss, perhaps Third Young Master is only being nice to Second Young Miss because of Old Master. Old Master’s chronic condition has worsened this year, so Third Young Master can’t keep fighting with Old Master for your sake like he did in the past…”

These words made Qin Youjiao’s expression relax a little.

Ah, that was right. She had almost forgotten that there was something like this.

“The Old Master only cares about the bloodlines. It’s no use no matter how well I treat him,” Qin Youjiao said unhappily.

From the outside, she was the dazzling and beautiful Qin Elder Young Miss and was doted on by three older brothers. However, the truth was that the Old Master never brought her along to attend any meetings with his closer associates and friends.

A strange spark flashed in the servant’s eyes, before she hurriedly bowed down and said, “That’s why Elder Young Miss has to shine and overshadow everyone during Old Master’s birthday banquet. It is your best chance to garner a good impression! You also know how much Second Young Miss has.”

Hearing this, Qin Youjiao’s eyes instantly lit up as the corners of her lips curled up.

Right.

She almost forgot that Pei Yunge was a useless thing that couldn’t be helped. She could find some trouble for Pei Yunge anyhow, and the other wouldn’t be able to handle it.

However, Third Brother’s attitude towards her today really made her feel uneasy…

Qin Youjiao instantly dismissed these thoughts.

It was impossible. Pei Yunge would only embarrass the brothers in the Qin family. How could she fight for love with her? She was overthinking things.

…

Not too long later, after they were done moving her belongings, Pei Yunge glanced around the wide and bright room before she glanced towards the panting Qin Lang. Her voice was distant. “Thank you.”

“Ge’er, are you hungry? How about…”

“No need. I want to rest.” Pei Yunge’s red lips curled up, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

After a few seconds, Qin Lang nodded stiffly. “Alright, then you should rest first.”

Upon leaving the third floor, the servants came to ask him, “Third Young Master, what would you like to eat for dinner tonight?”

“We’ll follow Ge’er’s preferences,” Qin Lang said casually.

Hearing his words, the servant blanked out for a long time, before the atmosphere turned awkward.

“Second Young Miss doesn’t seem to have any special preferences, right? Anything should do…”

In fact, they had never asked Pei Yunge what she liked to eat. After all, Pei Yunge was not doted on or loved in the Qin family. Who would curry favor with a young lady that had no status?

All along, they had been cooking according to the preferences and taste of the Elder Young Miss.

However, the moment Qin Lang heard her words, his expression darkened instantly. He remembered the ridiculous things he saw in Pei Yunge’s bedroom and an indiscernible flash crossed his eyes.

He laughed coldly. “Is it that Ge’er has nothing she liked to eat, or that you didn’t treat her as the Qin family young lady to begin with?”

Instantly, the servant who made the remark panicked!
