Guan Xunfang stopped talking, turned back to the living room with a lost expression, picked up her small bag, and was about to leave silently.

When Qin Zhenzhou saw her like this, he knew that he had hurt her.

He stood up and tried to persuade her to stay: "It's late outside. Stay here tonight. I'll get up early tomorrow to take you back."

Guan Xunfang remained silent, ignored him, and walked straight outside.

Qin Zhenzhou looked at Lin Qingshu helplessly.

Lin Qingshu quickly signaled to him to go out and chase.

Although the old lady usually likes to make trouble, it is late now and she is so old, so we can't let her go back alone.

Qin Zhenzhou quickly grabbed his coat and chased after him.

Here, Qin Yue and Sui Yuzhu went to the vegetable market and bought a lot of vegetables.

When passing by Xiang Dongfang's house, he went up and knocked on the door.

Soon, the door opened, revealing Xiang Yuan's little face.

Seeing that it was Qin Yue, he smiled and opened the door: "Brother Qin Yue, Sister Yuzhu, you are here? Come in and sit down!"

Having said that, he invited Qin Yue and the others to come in and sit down.

Qin Yue shook his head, took a look inside, and asked, "Are your parents home?"

Xiang Yuan nodded: "Yes."

"Did your brother tell you? Come to my house for dinner later."

Xiang Yuan nodded.

Before she could reply, she heard her mother's voice asking, "Yuanyuan, who's outside?"

Xiang Yuan turned around and shouted back, "It was Brother Qin Yue who invited us over for dinner!"

Soon, Xiang's mother appeared in front of him.

Seeing Qin Yue and Sui Yuzhu, he smiled and asked them to come in and sit down.

Qin Yue said no, he still had to go back to cook dinner.

"Don't be so polite. Ask your parents to make less dishes so that they don't have too much and can't finish it!" Xiang's mother said with a smile.

Qin Yue chuckled lightly and said nothing.

"Then you guys go over earlier."

Nodding to his mother: "Okay!"

When they came out of Xiang Dongfang's house, they ran into Qin Zhenzhou who had just persuaded Guan Xunfang to come back.

Guan Xunfang still looked a little angry, but she was much calmer than before.

"Where have you been?" Qin Yue asked proactively.

Guan Xunfang's gaze passed over Sui Yuzhu and finally stopped at Qin Yue. He said nothing more and made no sarcastic remarks.

Sui Yuzhu glanced at her and then looked away.

After returning home, Qin Yue and Sui Yuzhu also started to help cook dinner.

Guan Xunfang sat on the sofa in the living room, leisurely and without any intention of asking for help.

Of course, if she wanted help, they wouldn't want her help.

While cooking, Lin Qingshu looked at Qin Yue: "Qin Yue, it's late tonight, and your grandma won't be back. You sleep on the sofa, and your grandma will sleep in your room."

Qin Yue nodded without any objection.

Sui Yuzhu pursed her lips and said, "Otherwise, I'll sleep downstairs and let grandma sleep in my room."

Strictly speaking, this wasn't her room.

If she wasn't there, the old lady would have slept in the guest room.

Lin Qingshu couldn't help laughing: "With Qin Yue here, it's still your turn to sleep on this sofa? Just sleep in your room peacefully."

Sui Yuzhu looked at Qin Yue.

Qin Yue nodded gently to her.

Guan Xunfang saw them talking and laughing in the kitchen, as if they were really a family.

But her real family was neglected here, and she felt even more suffocated and unable to calm down.

Fortunately, Xiang’s family came to the door after a while.

The house became lively as soon as the five members of the Xiang family arrived.

Guan Xunfang's eyes immediately fell on the two graceful daughters of the Xiang family.

His eyes lit up and he quickly stood up to greet him.

He greeted the father and mother first, and then called the children to call people.

Guan Xunfang's gaze remained on the two girls, making them feel uncomfortable.

"Feng, your two daughters are not young anymore, right?" Guan Xunfang asked with a smile.

Those eyes were like a big bad wolf seeing a little white rabbit.

Xiang's mother didn't notice the eagerness in her eyes. She turned around and glanced at her two daughters before saying with a smile, "She's not young anymore. She's sixteen this year!"

When Guan Xunfang heard that he was still young, the enthusiasm on her face instantly disappeared.

That's quite a bit off.

After much thought, the girl from the Ding family is the most suitable.

Whether it's age, appearance or family background, it's all suitable.

Not like that little bean sprout!

Thinking of this, Guan Xunfang turned around and looked at Sui Yuzhu again.

This girl said she was twenty years old, but she didn't look like she was twenty at all. She looked just like a little bean sprout.

Guan Xunfang was a little worried that her thin little body would fall apart if she was tossed around.

Sui Yuzhu happened to look up and saw Guan Xunfang looking at her, so she raised her lips slightly at her.

She smiled and quickly looked away, leaving Guan Xunfang no chance to glare at her.

Guan Xunfang could only hold back her anger.

When there are outsiders around, Guan Xunfang still pays attention to etiquette and will not get angry easily.

So, the dinner was quite enjoyable.

After dinner, Lin Qingshu saw her family out.

After leaving the house, he told his father and mother what happened today, and asked them not to mention Sui Yuzhu's previous affairs in the future, so as to avoid any bad influence on her.

Xiang's father and mother had already heard from Xiang Dongfang about what happened in the afternoon, so when Lin Qingshu mentioned this matter to them, they nodded repeatedly, indicating that they would keep it to themselves and would never mention it again.

After sending them away, I saw Qin Zhenzhou washing dishes in the kitchen, and Guan Xunfang chattering beside him.

Lin Qingshu ignored them and just said to Sui Yuzhu: "Yuzhu, there are many people at home today, so you should go take a shower early."

It takes a while for the water heater to boil water, and if there are so many people taking a shower, it’s hard to say how long it will take.

Sui Yuzhu responded and got up to go upstairs to get a change of clothes.

Lin Qingshu also went upstairs and brought down a quilt, ready to spread it on the sofa for Qin Yue.

After taking a shower, Sui Yuzhu went back to her room to rest because she had to get up early the next morning.

When Guan Xunfang saw her closing the door and going to bed so early, she scolded her again.

Sui Yuzhu woke up at night because she had to urinate.

She got up and went to the bathroom, preparing to return to her room, but she stopped when she heard painful groans coming from the room next door.

It was the old lady's voice.

I don’t know what’s going on, but the noise must be quite uncomfortable.

Standing at the door of the room, she thought for two seconds, then raised her hand and knocked on the door: "Grandma, are you okay?"
