Chapter 477: Chapter 478 Girlfriend (2)
In that moment, it seemed to perfectly overlap with a scene from his memory.
A cold smirk curved his lips, his eyes narrowing, he drove off speedily with a step on the accelerator.
——
In the end, Lu Weixi didn’t tell Qin Zhiyou about her mother mentioning their divorce again, and Qin Zhiyou didn’t ask.
In the evening when they returned to the mansion, it was the old Master Qin who suddenly asked, “How is your mother’s illness, Wei Hui?”
Indeed, Qin Zhigu also wanted to know. The past few days, Lu Weixi was always stationed at the hospital and didn’t come home at all. At the company, Lu Weixi was super busy trying to finish the work from the past few days, she had no time to spare for him. When they came home, Qin Zhiyou stuck to her like a shadow, making it hard for him to say anything.
But the second their grandfather mentioned this, he immediately turned his head, his expression serious.
Lu Weixi said, “Thank you, Gramps. My mom is alright now and will be moved from the ICU to a regular ward tomorrow.”
Master Qin nodded, comforting her further, “If you have any difficulties in the future, be sure to tell me. We’re all family here.”
Lu Weixi nodded, “I know. Thank you, Gramps.”
Qin Zhimei then said, “I remember Wei Hui’s mother has cancer, right? She got it just when she married into the family and she’s still fine after all these years. She didn’t just marry you as a way to pay for her mother’s medical treatment, did she?”
These words angered everyone present. Other than Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi, even Qin Zhigu frowned. Even Grandfather Qin scolded her, “If you don’t know what to say, then don’t say anything at all!”
How could she, being of the younger generation, so thoughtlessly discuss the affairs of her elders? Especially something as grave as a potential life-threatening illness.
Qin Zhiyou snorted, “Kind people don’t live long, but their impact lasts for generations. I reckon you are one of those parasites that pollute the world by their mere existence.”
Since Grandfather Qin had already reprimanded Qin Zhimei, Qin Weijia felt it improper to say anything more. Just as the group was talking, Qin Zhizhi returned home by car. As soon as he walked through the door, he sensed the tense atmosphere in the room. He casually swung his keychain around his fingers, a sly grin on his face.
“Oh, what’s happened here? Why the long faces?”
Feeling extremely aggrieved, Qin Zhimei turned to glare at Qin Zhizhi, “Brother, where the hell were you?”
If you had been here, I wouldn’t have been scolded so badly.
Qin Zhizhi’s narrow eyes gleamed with mischief, “Oh me? I’ve been courting a love affair!”
As for the reliability of Qin Zhizhi’s love affairs, it was even less trustworthy than that of Qin Zhiyou. Everyone knew that Qin Zhizhi played with girls even more recklessly than Qin Zhiyou did. He was just overshadowed by Qin Zhiyou’s flashy lifestyle. Neither the Qin family, Qin Zhiyou, nor Qin Zhigu had anything to do with him, so he lived his life carelessly.
In the ears of the entire Qin family, Qin Zhizhi’s so-called “dating” was nothing more than him hooking up with another female celebrity, something they were all used to. Who knew that this time, Qin Zhizhi just smirked, “Mom, you might have a daughter-in-law soon.”
At this, Qin Weijia was instantly unhappy, “You can play however you want outside, but whoever you bring into our Qin family needs to be from a well-known and respectable family. And absolutely not from those broke losers who don’t offer any help and just live off of your generosity!”
It was clear that the “broke loser” she referred to was Lu Weixi.
Qin Zhizhi smiled, “Don’t worry, Mom! Your son here is definitely going to bring you a daughter-in-law from an illustrious family.”
As he said this, his narrow eyes flickered over Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi, finally settling on Qin Zhigu.
