"What's the matter, second brother?" she asked indifferently.

His gaze was complex as he looked at her. He had intended to apologize; being with Rong'er was a betrayal to her. Considering she never acknowledged him as her husband, he thought that if he said it out loud, she wouldn't care. Seeing Li Rong'er standing at the kitchen doorway watching him, he didn't want to hurt Rong'er's feelings. So, he just said, "The twenty taels I owe you, once my injury is healed, I'll repay after selling the game from hunting in the mountains."

The second brother had said before that he wanted only one woman in the future, but Su Qingyue never took it to heart. Since she had told him to marry someone else, she didn't care about his emotional promises to her.

Yet he had promised he would not go hunting in the mountains anymore, and he easily overturned that promise.

Truth be told, Xiao Yishan owed her far more than those twenty taels he spent on Li Rong'er.
