Two days before Qin Zifu's engagement, Gu Dining returned. Upon hearing this, Qin Zifu quickly slipped on her slippers and went downstairs to find him.
Where are you going?
Qi Jingchen watched as she jumped up from the sofa, put on her slippers, and ran off in one smooth motion, without a single unnecessary movement; she was quite efficient.
"Gu Dining is back. At least he has a conscience; he still knows to come back."
"I'll go down with you."
"good"
They went downstairs just as Gu Dining was about to enter.
"Gu Dining!"
Qin Zifu ran over to kick Gu Dining, but she was grabbed and choked as soon as she got close.
"Ah, let go!"
Qin Zifu reached behind him and pinched the flesh on the back of his neck, then pulled hard with her little hand.
Let go of me.
"Let go."
"Let go first."
Qin Zifu tightened her grip, but Gu Dining only held her in place and dared not use force, for fear of breaking her neck.
"You've gotten so thin, but you've always had pretty strong hands, huh?"
The elders inside the door were used to it, but Qi Jingchen outside was completely bewildered. He had considered rescuing Qin Zifu the moment she was locked up, but he stopped when he saw Gu Dining being grabbed by the back of the neck.
Perhaps it's a unique way the siblings get along? He doesn't have any biological siblings, and none of his other siblings have ever teased him like this, so he'd never seen it before.
"You two, that's enough. Jing Chen is watching. You'll make a fool of yourselves."
Gu Dining nodded to Qi Jingchen, and the two greeted each other, though it felt awkward no matter how they addressed each other.
"open"
"I'm not going to stoop to your level, you're terrible at the game and you love to play."
Gu Dining released Qin Zifu first, and Qin Zifu released him in return.
"The two of them have to fight before even entering the house."
Qi Jingchen walked over, put his arm around Qin Zifu's neck where it had just been locked, and looked down to see that her collarbone was a little red.
"Quick, Jingchen, come in. Ignore them, don't mind them, they've always been like this."
"No, it's quite interesting."
The group sat in the living room. It had been several years since Gu Dining and Qi Jingchen last met; he had run into Gu Di'an when he went to see him.
The next time I saw him, he was going to marry his sister; it was a bit unbelievable.
"How many days will you stay back?"
"Unless there are special circumstances, it will take a week."
Gu Zhengji nodded, which meant a maximum of one week, and he could leave at any time if something came up.
"Will you come back when I get married?"
"I'll try my best."
"Pshaw... a fake sibling relationship."
"Come back if you can."
"All right"
Qin Zifu grumbled, dissatisfied with the answer, but she knew he had no choice and there was nothing he could do.
Let's eat and chat.
"I'm going to change my clothes."
Gu Di'an put the luggage back in the room and Qin Zifu followed him in.
Qi Jingchen watched her enter Gu Dining's room from the dining table. She followed her brother in while he was changing clothes.
Why aren't you coming to my room with your husband?
"I'm just worried about you. How did you get hurt again?"
She discovered it when Qin Zifu was arguing with her earlier; she's discovered it this way several times already.
"Not bad, you even noticed such a minor injury."
"Minor injury my ass! Weren't you changing clothes? Go ahead and change."
"How can a lady from a respectable family speak so rudely? Does your husband know?"
"Does a fiancé understand? He's not my husband yet, why are you in such a hurry for me to get married?"
"Oh, does your fiancé know how vulgar you are?"
"...If you can't speak properly, just shut up. He thinks I'm perfect in every way."
"How disgusting! He thinks I'm perfect in every way!"
Gu Dining imitated her speech, sounding both cheeky and obnoxious.
"You're so annoying, you'll never find a wife."
"Don't worry about it, mind your own business."
"What, you think you can find a wife on your own without me having to help you?"
"You'd better get out of here, I need to change my clothes."
"Why are you rushing me? It's not like I haven't seen it before."
"Get out of here right now and stop talking nonsense."
"Wait a minute, what are you doing tomorrow? Why don't you come and help me out?"
"I can go this afternoon; I'll visit Brother Yu Gui this morning."
"Okay, I'm leaving."
When Qin Zifu came out, everyone was already seated and ready to eat. She sat in the empty seat next to Qi Jingchen.
"If you say they have a good relationship, they'll fight whenever they meet; if you say they don't, they'll grumble and refuse to go out for dinner."
Looking at how her two children interacted, Qin Qingwan noticed that Gu Di'an was much more indulgent towards Qin Zifu, while her older brother was less so.
"I know, this is called a love-hate relationship, right?"
"Grandma, you even know about love and hate?"
"That's right, your grandma keeps up with current events. She was the first to know that your proposal was trending online."
"ox"
"We cannot be left behind by society; we must keep pace with the times."
After Gu Dining changed his clothes, everyone started eating.
"Eat more today, everyone! There's plenty of food."
"Mmm, I have a great appetite, everything tastes delicious!"
"Are you a pig?"
"You're the pig, a pig with a screw loose!"
The two started arguing again.
Qin Zifu felt full after eating for a while, mainly because she had eaten snacks at home before coming over.
Eat more
Qi Jingchen put another piece of pork rib on his plate.
I'm full.
Qin Zifu always felt that her appetite was quite large for a girl, but they still made her eat more every day. She ate a piece of pork rib and a piece of salmon before they let her go.
"You two are really something! Qin Zifu, don't you have hands? Why don't you pick up the food yourself?"
"Is it any of your business? Are you jealous?"
"..."
With Gu Dining back today, the atmosphere at dinner was even more cheerful. After dinner, Gu Zhengji called Gu Di'an to his study.
"Jing Chen, want to play a game?"
"Okay, Grandpa!"
Qin Zifu doesn't like watching chess, so she watches Qin Jing make videos on the sofa.
I must say, she's quite impressive. At her age, she still understands how to make videos, and she even makes and uploads them herself. Although she's quite casual when filming, she doesn't need much editing, just adding automatic subtitles and adjusting filters.
But she's also quite impressive. Qin Jing is the kind of person who's willing to learn anything, and most importantly, she can calm down and focus.
She then looked through Su Nuo's account and found that she had quite a few followers, and her videos were much more refined and professional.
"Fufu, shall we go back?"
"Huh? Back to the game? It's over? Who won?"
Grandpa won!
Qin Zifu raised an eyebrow, still questioning the result.
Back home, Qin Zifu swung her legs and lay on the bed.
"Baby, what did you talk about with Gu Dining just now?"
Ask him how serious his injury is.
Qin Zifu didn't hide it from him; they both understood this kind of thing.
"Our family is really strange. Actually, everyone would notice his injury in no time, but no one would pretend not to know. He knows that others can see it, but he won't say anything and pretends that we can't find out."
"Yes, I understand. I don't want my family to worry."
"But is it possible that not telling them would cause even more worry at home?"
"Okay, baby, let's not talk about this anymore."
Qi Jingchen turned her over and let her sit on his lap.
"Do your job well today, and I won't cause trouble tomorrow, okay?"
I don't believe you.
Qin Zifu leaned over him and poked his chin with her finger, tracing the outline of his jawline.
"Really, we're getting engaged the day after tomorrow. I'm worried you'll be too tired."
"Can't you let me rest today too?"
"No, baby."
………
"Sweetie, Fufu is great."
Qin Zifu supported herself with both hands.
……………………
"This is too tiring."
"Your stamina is so poor?"
"Um... I'm going to sleep."
"Hmm? Do you think that's possible?"
