Nightmare

"It's possible, but I've considered it." Qu Xiaowan said earnestly, "Xiaoman, Yi Han saved your life this time. Shouldn't you marry him? Why don't you marry him? This way, our family can still have the same relationship as before. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?!"

Looking at the sincere smile on Qu Xiaowan's face, Qu Xiaoman subconsciously took two steps back. Why was everything different from what she had imagined? Shouldn't Qu Xiaowan scold her in embarrassment and even hit her? Then, her actions would cause everyone in the Qu Family to be dissatisfied and everyone would condemn her in the end?

Qu Xiaoman was stunned on the spot and did not know what to say next. In the end, she was helped back to her room because her leg hurt too much.

After Qu Xiaoman left, Qu Xiaowan revealed a mocking expression and went to her grandfather's study.

"Grandpa, will the Yi Family use this to make things difficult for our family?" Qu Xiaowan asked worriedly.

Over the years, although the Qu and Yi families were working together, the Qu Family was actually more profitable because the Qu Family had monopolized the Interstellar Federation's catering business. The profits from transportation were not even a third of the Qu Family's profits.

If this continued, the Yi Family would definitely be unhappy. Hence, the farce at the wedding was actually the Yi Family deliberately allowing Yi Han to make mistakes to test the Qu Family.

Old Master Qu knew his old friend's personality very well. He asked Qu Xiaowan, "What do you think we should do if the Yi Family really cuts off our ingredient supply?"

"We have to be prepared in advance so that we won't be restricted by them at the critical moment. I heard from Dad that the transport spaceship was intercepted by the galactic bandits a few years ago. After that, we thought that a big shot had helped solve the problem of the ingredients. Grandpa, can we ask that big shot for help again?"

Although Qu Xiaowan had been cooped up at home for the past two years after she woke up, she did do something. She knew everything that had happened in the family in the past five years, so she knew about this.

Old Master Qu stroked his beard. "I don't know why that big shot is willing to help us with. I only know that he works in the palace. We don't know his exact position. We only have one contact information."

The palace? Qu Xiaowan was instinctively shocked. Every time she heard about the palace, she would think of Jing Yu. Even when she had nightmares at night, she would dream of the cute Jing Yu kissing her with tears and trying to strangle her with his tail.

Old Master Qu did not know that Qu Xiaowan was recalling her nightmare. He continued, "The other party is a big shot in the palace. I'm not sure if he will help. I'll give you the communication device. Try contacting him."

Qu Xiaowan was silent for a moment before nodding. After receiving the communication, she suddenly felt that it was a little hot. She hoped that she was thinking too much. This big shot had nothing to do with Jing Yu.

The grandfather and granddaughter chatted for a while more before Qu Zhen went home. He was actually back to visit the injured Qu Xiaoman before looking for Qu Xiaowan. "Xiaowan, come out for a while. Daddy has something to tell you!"

Ever since she realized that her father treated others better than her, Qu Xiaowan did not care much about him. She said directly, "Dad, just say what you want to say. Why do you have to go behind Grandpa's back?"

Old Master Qu looked at his son coldly.

Qu Zhen choked and could not insist on getting Qu Xiaowan out. He said unhappily, "Isn't it all your fault?! It's not that Yi Han didn't rush back on purpose. He also apologized to you and begged you. Why don't you forgive him? Now, the Yi Family is reconsidering their cooperation with our family!"

Hearing this, Qu Xiaowan sighed. "Dad, you really can't blame me for this. Xiaoman and Yi Han are in love. I married someone else to fulfill their wish! It's fine if outsiders don't understand my painstaking efforts, but why do you misunderstand me too? Xiaoman is so pitiful. I really hope that she can be with the person she loves. Am I wrong? Although I'm embarrassed, I can't let Xiaoman lose her true love!"

Qu Zhen was stunned.

Old Master Qu looked at his granddaughter in surprise with a meaningful expression.

Qu Zhen took a long time to recover and asked, "Is what you said true?"

Qu Xiaowan nodded immediately. "Of course it's true! Xiaoman liked Yi Han for a long time, but she hid her feelings because I was already engaged to Yi Han. Moreover, Yi Han ignored his own comfort and the consequences when Xiaoman was in danger and saved her immediately. Isn't this true love? I was touched by their feelings, so I wanted to fulfill them!"
