When Qi Yongrui heard Ye Shun's words, his eyes turned moist. Though his father-in-law didn't say anything special, Qi Yongrui grew up listening to nothing but rants about how, if he wanted to be loved, then he needed to listen to their orders and follow their will.
Only then would he become worthy of their love.
And so, Qi Yongrui had done what they asked him to do. Only for them to ignore his very existence.
So, how could he not be moved?
"I understand, Father," Qi Yongrui sniffed and nodded with an obedient expression on his face. He didn't make a fuss and let Luo Huian take him back to his room.
Once the two of them arrived on the second floor, Luo Huian brought him to his room and helped him sit on the bed. After he settled down, she pulled the leg of his trousers and looked at the injuries on his legs. Though the injuries on his legs were not severe, they were not light either.
