Chapter 279 - 280: Confused Heart (4)
“Back then, big brother, you were abroad, so you didn’t know what happened. There was a great disturbance here. I almost thought the eldest brother and his wife were going to get divorced.”
Qin Weijian and Qin Weijia were eager to see the misfortune of the main room. With their son not around, Yang Mogui took some time off. Lu Weixi was fighting a lonely battle. Perhaps because their grandfather Qin passed away first, these two were speaking more and more carelessly.
Qin Zhizha even laughed: “Don’t mention sister-in-law. From now on, she has someone backing her up. Have you heard? The boss of sister-in-law, boss Bai, returned to the country. He was here at this meeting. It’s funny, because a friend of mine was there, and heard boss Bai trying to get on the good side of oldest brother, but he got shot down by the oldest brother. It was so humiliating for him. Do you know what he said to oldest brother?”
Qin Zhimei quickly retorted: “What did he say?”
Qin Zhizha smirked: “When boss Bai saw oldest brother and host Liu together, he said it was inevitable that men would fool around outside. If his obedient daughter dared to show oldest brother any attitude, he would personally deal with her when he returned to Yan City. Isn’t that funny?”
Lu Weixi slightly lifted her chin and placed her teacup on the table with a thud.
At the sound, Qin Zhimei and Qin Zhizha looked at her, and Qin Zhimei sneered: “What, did we hit a nerve? Your biological father comes back and supports your husband fooling around with women outside, you must be so pleased.”
Lu Weixi raised her hand, and Qin Zhimei instinctively thought she was going to splash tea on her, so she immediately raised her hand to block her face.
But Lu Weixi just raised her palm, extending one finger: “First of all, my surname is Lu, not Bai. What people surnamed Bai do has nothing to do with me, who is surnamed Lu. Secondly,”
She looked at Qin Zhizha, “you said I’m striving for my career, yes, I am indeed striving for my career. As for the disturbance, you will know about it next week.”
Lu Weixi had just been selected by Siyi Company, the specific contract was still being negotiated, but basically, there was no problem, it was just a formality. Next week, she would be invited to attend the cornerstone ceremony of Siyi Company’s new building. By then, those mocking her on the sidelines would know what her “striving for a career” looked like.
“And as for Qin Zhiyou.” She paused slightly here, took a breath, felt something prickly stuck in her throat, but still said, “I’m sorry, I have no plans to divorce him, and he feels the same. So, for the foreseeable future, I will continue to be your sister-in-law. Plus, Hanhai won’t be given to anyone else but me, so you’ll always be under my foot. I relish in your frustration of not being able to overthrow me.”
“You!”—As expected, Qin Zhimei and Qin Zhizha stood up in rage.
Lu Weixi, however, looked nonchalant, she turned her gaze away, turned around apathetically, “I can’t be bothered to argue with you any longer, it’s beneath me.”
After she finished speaking, she ignored their angry roars and went straight upstairs.
After closing the door, Lu Weixi leaned against it, feeling a bit weak.
What’s wrong with her, why is she so disturbed, as if she had changed a bit. She never used to argue with Qin Zhimei and Qin Zhizha over such trivial things before. Was it because of the heavy workload, or because Bai Changyou was back in the country?
It couldn’t be… because of Liu Yiyi?
Or… Could it be… Qin Zhiyou?
