Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife-Chapter 579: I Don’t Believe a Single Word!

Later, a middle-aged man appeared in front of Li Qingmu.

"The deposed Crown Prince says he wants to meet you and that he has something very important to discuss with you!"

Li Qingmu’s gaze slightly darkened as he stared at the middle-aged man, lightly saying, "I won’t meet him!"

The middle-aged man chuckled, "I’m only here to deliver a message. Whether you meet him or not is for Mr. Li to decide! Farewell!"

The man cupped his hands and left.

Li Qingmu watched him with a cold gaze, suddenly letting out a scornful laugh.

The deposed Crown Prince looking for him? For what? Surely no good reason, he wouldn’t fall into that trap to meet him, besides, he couldn’t go out now anyway.

Qi Yun’s order of house arrest had not been lifted, which left Li Qingmu speechless.

He returned to the back yard, where Long Yue was teaching their son to speak.

"Come, say ’mother’!"

"Na..."

"Not ’Na’, it’s ’mother’!"

"Na..."

Ah, this child! 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Although a bit frustrated, Long Yue couldn’t help but smile sweetly at her adorable son’s innocent look.

When she saw her husband return, she asked, "Who was looking for you?"

"Someone I don’t know!"

A stranger? This...

"What did he want with you?"

"Nothing! Just some trivial matters!"

Seeing the impatience on her husband’s face, Long Yue’s big eyes rolled, "Trivial matters bothering us? Next time someone like that comes, he should be beaten up, beaten to the point of being unable to care for himself, let’s see if they dare to be impudent at the Li Mansion!"

Indeed, this little wife was as fierce as ever!

"Come on, call ’father’, if you can’t say ’mother’, surely you can say ’father’?"

Seeing their son, Li Qingmu felt happier and picked up his child, kissing his little cheeks on both sides, encouraging him to call ’father’.

"Da..."

Li Qingmu, "..."

This kid couldn’t articulate clearly!

Seeing the two of them looking frustrated, Ning Xiang, who was serving by the side, burst into laughter: "Master, Madam, he’s just a few months old, of course, his speech is slurred! Actually, being able to say most of the word is quite good!"

Long Yue thought for a moment and laughed, "That’s right, other kids his age can’t even babble, but our son can say a few sounds, which shows he’s ahead of other children!"

Ning Xiang covered her mouth with a smile, indeed, all parents in the world want their children to become outstanding, and no matter what, they’ll always find their own lovely.

Playing with the child, occasionally pinching his chubby little cheeks, life was so wonderful. Long Yue felt that having a little treasure softened her temperament, smiling as she interacted with others.

The maids and servants all said she was a kind mistress whom one would want to approach.

"Madam, it’s getting late, you should rest!"

Hongtang reminded from the side.

Long Yue glanced at the sky, seeing it was indeed dark outside, and said, "Alright then, you can go too!"

Long Yue and Li Qingmu, along with their child, just wanted to enjoy family time, no need for Ning Xiang and Hongtang to keep watch.

The two little maids left giggling.

The two of them used to be in competition when serving together, but gradually became good friends, which was indeed fate.

The night grew darker, Long Yue fed Rui’er milk and some porridge with minced meat, then watched her little treasure sleep soundly. She stretched lazily and went with Li Qingmu into bed.

As soon as she lay down, the man’s hands wouldn’t stop wandering, making Long Yue get goosebumps.

"Stop it, behave, the child is just beside us, he’s just fallen asleep, don’t wake him?"

Li Qingmu’s face darkened. His own wife, and he couldn’t even be affectionate?

All because of this naughty little child, such a little troublemaker!

Li Qingmu grunted, withdrawing his hands but still holding Long Yue as they slept.

Taking care of a child was exhausting work, and Long Yue dozed off in a bewildered sleep after a busy day, but Li Qingmu couldn’t fall asleep. The middle-aged man from the evening left him uneasy.

"Who’s there?"

Suddenly, a shadow flickered outside the window, and Li Qingmu was startled, quickly throwing off the covers and rushing out.

But outside, there seemed to be no one?

"Come out!"

He called harshly, his gaze sweeping around, observing the surroundings carefully.

"Whoosh!"

A cold flash passed by, Li Qingmu instinctively turned to one side, hearing a "bang" as something struck the large tree behind him.

Then, he heard the sound of a person flying away.

That person had left?

He frowned slightly, confirming once more, then turned to look at the big tree behind him.

There was a deeply embedded dagger with a letter attached in the middle.

Li Qingmu pondered for a moment, went indoors, grabbed a cloth, and wrapped it around the knife handle to retrieve the letter.

The letter was ordinary, and the dagger was ordinary too, no poison on it, so Li Qingmu breathed a sigh of relief. Upon opening it, his face instantly changed.

Because, the letter read: Brother Seventeen, can’t you come and see your brother just once? Your brother really has something important to say. When a person is about to die, their words are kind, can’t you give your brother a chance?

Signed: Qi Junji.

Li Qingmu’s handsome face twitched slightly, turning ashen.

Qi Junji... he actually knew his true identity?

Then, undoubtedly, the Empress should also know.

He took a deep breath, stared at the letter for a long time, then burned it with a candle.

"What’s wrong? Why do you have the lights on? Hey, it’s cold out, didn’t you know to put on clothes?"

Long Yue woke up in a daze, seeing Li Qingmu standing silently by the window in his thin undergarments.

Long Yue was taken aback, not knowing what was going on with him?

"It’s nothing, I just had a nightmare and broke out in a cold sweat, so I wanted to calm down outside."

Li Qingmu quickly lied.

Long Yue snorted coldly, "You’re telling lies to the ghosts? I don’t believe a word, say it, what’s really happening?"

Li Qingmu just silently looked at her.

Feeling uncomfortable being stared at by him, Long Yue asked angrily, "Why are you staring at me like that? Speak, what’s really going on? Is it... related to the person who came to see you earlier?"

Though Long Yue now focused on her child, she was aware of outside matters too. Hongtang had already informed her about the stranger visiting Li Qingmu in the evening.

Knowing some things couldn’t be hidden, Li Qingmu said, "That person in the evening told me the deposed Crown Prince wanted to see me! I refused."

"And now? That person came again? In the middle of the night, it must be something more important, right?"

"Yes!" Li Qingmu’s expression darkened, his wife being too smart made life quite challenging for him, indeed, women being less intelligent was a virtue.

"It’s the Crown Prince, he wrote me a letter himself, asking me to see him."

"Don’t meet him, I always feel there’s something fishy, let’s not go!"

"But... Yue’er, he already knows my identity. I think it’s necessary to meet him."
