Because of Cai Yiren and Qin Zhimei’s conflict, Lu Weixin was not in spirited, and in no mood to deal with Qin Zhiyou. It was Yang Mogui who gently admonished him, “Go greet him.”

Lu Weixin sighed, setting down his chopsticks to approach the door. He lifted his eyes and said coolly, “You’re back.”

Qin Zhiyou had just got out of his car, looking utterly weary. Yet his afternoon meeting, under his painstaking arrangement, ended up as another complete victory. His uncles and aunts were left chocked with resentment. It seemed they were only a step away from resorting to violence.

Well, if he hadn’t been so aggressive, how could Liu Yiyi, the spy, have shown her value? He reasoned that his aunt must have orchestrated a scheme involving Liu Yiyi, who would be deployed soon. When that happened, he could use this information to confound them instead.

Despite his heavy workload, as soon as he finished handling the most urgent matters, his first instinct was to hurry home.

He drove all the way home and as soon as he got out of the car, he saw Lu Weixin waiting for him at the doorstep, a sight which astonished him.

Qin Zhiyou made a non-committal hum, just as his secretary Wang also got off, saying, “CEO Qin, after today’s meeting, I will make haste to carry out all work related matters. Tomorrow morning, in line with your request, I’ll come by earlier to pick you up.”

Qin Zhiyou shifted his gaze back to Secretary Wang, gave him a slight nod, and instructed him on a few work-related matters before striding into the house. As soon as he entered, Aunt Hao approached. He efficiently changed his shoes, handed his bag and coat to Aunt Hao, and then, with one stretch of his arm, he wrapped it around Lu Weixin’s waist, and, straight away, gave her a kiss.

This sudden kiss startled Lu Weixin, especially with Aunt Hao close by and Yang Mogui watching them. She didn’t resist, simply allowing him to kiss her. Just moments ago, she had noticed Qin Zhiyou’s indifferent gaze and calm demeanor, indicating that he wasn’t particularly eager to see her. Why was he all affectionate now?

After the kiss, Qin Zhiyou hugged her waist and whispered into her ear, “My mom is watching; let’s act affectionate.”

After hearing this, Lu Weixin, although she still felt a bit stiff, at least didn’t resist him anymore.

As expected, Yang Mogui, upon seeing the couple’s intimacy, asked, “Didn’t you say you weren’t coming back?”

Qin Zhiyou nodded. “I am indeed very busy, but knowing that you and Weixin are here, I would certainly try my best to come home.”

Truth be told, even though they were putting on a show in front of Yang Mogui, Lu Weixin was indeed feeling a bit queasy. This unease pervaded their quiet dinner. She hardly had an appetite, which Qin Zhiyou quickly noticed. “Don’t like the dishes today?” He asked.

Before Lu Weixin could shake her head, she saw Qin Zhiyou reach into her bowl with his chopsticks, grab some food, and calmly chew and swallow it in front of a surprised Yang Mogui and astonished her. “It’s delicious,” he said nonchalantly.

Lu Weixin furrowed her brows, utterly perplexed. In order to hasten his mom’s departure, Qin Zhiyou took the extreme measure of eating from her bowl!

She lost her appetite for food and just wanted to finish her meal hastily. However, Qin Zhiyou noticing that she was only eating rice and not the dishes, served her some vegetables saying, “Eat quickly.”

Lu Weixin did not feel like touching her chopsticks, but Qin Zhiyou’s expression made it clear that she had no choice but to comply.

Eating without relish and wolfing down her food, together with her bad mood, made her want nothing more than to get away from it all.

And then it was time for bed..
