Chapter 536: Chapter 536 This Lifetime is Completely Ruined (6)_1

Sun Xiujin was stunned too. Initially, she married Li Baoxiang because he was a scholar, and although his family wasn’t wealthy, it was passable. She had hoped that his promising future would lift her up as well. But if his right arm was broken...

The room fell silent.

Fang Liuming’s eyes reddened, his face deathly pale, "It’s my fault, I’ve brought trouble upon Brother Li."

Feng Wei exchanged a few words with Sun Dalang and hurried back home.

Pei Qin had already gone to bed. He hesitated, but still called out, "Young Master! Young Mistress! There’s been an accident."

Mo Heng opened his eyes, gently let go of Pei Qin, got up, tucked her in, dressed himself, and came out quietly.

Feng Wei whispered about Fang Liuming being attacked and Li Baoxiang’s serious injury, "...His right arm is ruined, it’s likely he will have no chance with the academic examinations." Not everyone was like the Young Master, who could use his left hand as proficiently as his right.

Pei Qin woke up shocked, heard part of it, threw off the covers, pulled on her clothes, and strode out, "Fang Liuming’s arm is ruined?!"

Mo Heng frowned and turned to usher her back into the room, "He’s fine, it’s Li Baoxiang."

"Li Baoxiang..." Pei Qin breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately furrowed her brows.

"You wait at home for a while, I’ll go take a look," Mo Heng fastened the buttons on her thin coat.

Pei Qin insisted on going together, "I’m coming with you."

It was already the end of the first lunar month, not particularly cold outside. Mo Heng fetched a cloak for her to wear, and they left the house together, heading to Sun Lizheng’s family.

Li Baoxiang had regained consciousness and was crying, "My arm is broken, my life is ruined..."

Standing to the side with a guilty conscience, Fang Liuming had just promised to cover all the medical expenses. Beyond that, he really didn’t know what to do. Upon hearing Pei Qin and Mo Heng had arrived, Fang Liuming, with reddened eyes, looked up to see her walking briskly toward them clad in a black cloak, her expression solemn and her gaze deep. It looked as though she could shelter those under her wings from wind and snow. Fang Liuming felt a warmth in his eyes and stepped forward, "Cousin! I..."

"What happened?" Pei Qin frowned at his guilty expression.

Miao’s couldn’t help but blame, "Which family’s enemy did your family offend this time? Those hired thugs came for revenge, involved Bao Xiang, and even broke his arm! With his right arm broken, what is he going to do with the rest of his life?!"

Pei Qin gave her a cold glance and looked at Fang Liuming.

Fang Liuming took a deep breath, "...Li and I were discussing scholarly matters. It got late, so I escorted him out. Five or six thugs rushed us and started beating. Brother Li doesn’t know any martial arts and ended up with a broken arm..."

"Those men came for Liuming. They struck immediately; they must’ve had a grudge. They hit hard on the right arm. I don’t know any martial arts; I couldn’t fight back at all," Li Baoxiang sobbed with reddened eyes.

Sun Lizheng’s voice was hoarse, "With his right arm broken, he’ll have no more chances in academic examinations."

"With his arm broken, he won’t be able to do anything!" Miao’s cried as she wiped her tears.

Sun Xiujin watched Pei Qin, her black hair loosely bundled atop her head, a pale red silk jacket covered by a cloak, exuding an imposing presence. Beside her, Mo Heng in a dark robe with subtle patterns, with his exceedingly handsome face and an aura of aloof nobility. She seemed insignificant compared to them, plain-looking. And to think she had ruined her chance to become a concubine to Young Master Shen, marrying Li Baoxiang instead, and now, because of their family’s enmity, his right arm was broken, erasing any hope she might have had for the future.

If envy was what she felt before, in this moment, all of Sun Xiujin’s jealousy, anger, and hatred converged into a burning resentment.

Pei Qin, on what grounds did you block my path in life?! And yet, you yourself discarded it, turning around to marry a handsome but naïve young face. But you keep ruining my life. I lost a son because of you, and my in-laws’ family doesn’t like the daughter I gave birth to. Now, Li Baoxiang is disabled, my entire life has been ruined by you!
