Ming Qi watched Qin Yun sit down calmly. There seemed to be no change on his face, but the hand holding the wine glass tightened slightly.
Then he lowered his eyes and looked away, as if nothing had happened.
"Sister Ning, your belly seems to have grown bigger." Ji Wei looked at Ning Xi's belly and said with a smile.
"I remember when my eldest sister-in-law was pregnant with Nian Nian, her belly didn't seem that big. My eldest brother said it must be a girl, and he was right."
When Qin Yun was pregnant with Nian Nian, she returned to the country to see him once and said this.
Hearing her say this, the expressions of the other four people changed slightly.
Ning Xi quickly glanced at Qin Yun, then glanced at Ming Qi out of the corner of her eye.
Qin Yun also frowned, then raised his eyes and glanced at Ming Qi who was sitting opposite him.
Ming Qi still kept his eyes downcast, as if he couldn't see anything.
He just kept drinking until his glass was empty.
The pressure on Qin Yan's body dropped instantly, and he looked up at Ji Wei coldly.
Ji Wei noticed his gaze, and when she looked up, she met his cold eyes, and suddenly looked a little helpless.
"Qin, Brother Qin Yan..."
"We, the Qin family, don't want to hear anything about your Ji family anymore." Qin Yan said coldly.
Ji Wei's face turned pale, and her whole body tensed up nervously, "Brother Qin Yan, I, we..."
"I don't want to see anyone from your Ji family again." Qin Yan continued coldly.
Ji Wei couldn't stand the oppression he felt and was so frightened that she couldn't even speak.
Ming Qi watched, although he didn't want to care at all, but he knew that the Ji family was also a guest invited by the Ming family today. If anything happened to Ji Wei, it would only cause trouble for the Ming family.
So, he stood up and said, "Miss Ji, I will accompany you to find Mrs. Ji and Mr. Ji."
Upon hearing this, Ji Wei hurriedly looked at him, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes.
"Mr. Ming..." Before she could finish her words, Ming Qi had already turned and left.
Ji Wei opened her mouth, and her eyes suddenly became redder.
However, she was also afraid of Qin Yan, so she quickly stood up and wanted to leave.
But then he thought of something and turned back to look at Qin Yun and said, "Sister-in-law."
Qin Yun pinched his brows tiredly and said, "Ji Wei, go find your parents first. I'll sit here for a while."
Hearing her say this and seeing Qin Yan's cold eyes sweeping over again, Ji Wei could only nod and then hurried to find Ming Qi.
After Ji Wei left, Qin Yan looked at Qin Yun with neither approval nor comprehension.
"Why are you here? And you're with her?" The "she" here naturally refers to Ji Wei.
"The Ji family's third branch wasn't involved in anything. Ji Wei was nice to me before. She said she wanted me to accompany her to a dinner party and introduce her to some famous ladies here, so I came over."
But she didn't know that this was the Ming family's dinner party.
If she had known, she definitely wouldn't have come.
Qin Yan's expression turned even uglier. "Even if he wasn't involved in anything, his surname is Ji."
Except for Ji Chen, Qin Yan has no good feelings towards anyone in the Ji family.
"Besides, you have nothing to do with the Ji family anymore, so you don't have to do anything for them."
Qin Yun sighed and said, "I know."
It was only because Ji Wei asked for her help in a pitiful tone and always respected her that she agreed.
Ning Xi looked at the fatigue on Qin Yun's face, gently held her hand and said, "Sister, I think what Ah Yan said is right. The Ji family will definitely solve the problem themselves. You should not worry about it. Besides..."
She paused, glanced at Qin Yan again, and then continued to say to Qin Yun, "I think it's inappropriate for Ji Wei to keep mentioning her brother-in-law in front of you."
She couldn't figure out what Ji Weipingfan meant by mentioning Ji Chen in front of Qin Yun?
However, as an outsider who knew the truth, she felt uncomfortable when she heard these words.
Not to mention Qin Yun.
Ji Wei keeps mentioning Ji Chen in front of her. Isn't that just rubbing salt into her wounds?
Qin Yun heard her words and smiled bitterly. "She does speak quite bluntly sometimes. Don't worry, I'll be back soon and won't be involved in the Ji family's affairs anymore."
She understood that her brother and sister-in-law were concerned about her, and she did feel uncomfortable.
She is not stupid and likes to abuse herself. She looks for Ji Wei every day and listens to her say these words.
Today, she had no choice but to come here because Ji Wei was pestering her.
"Then I'll take you out and let Lu Yi take you home first." Qin Yan stood up directly.
He didn't know how Ning Xi knew Ji Wei, but he could tell from her words just now that Ji Wei seemed to have mentioned Ji Chen in front of Qin Yun more than once.
This made him very unhappy.
Seeing his brother's angry look, Qin Yun hurriedly said, "It's okay. I'm already here, and there are so many people watching. If I leave like this, it won't be good if the Ming family elders hear about it."
It would have been fine if she hadn't said hello to Qin Yan and Ning Xi.
Maybe other people don't know her identity either.
But now, someone must have heard what I just said.
Everyone knew that she was Qin Yun, Qin Yan's sister, but she left just as the show started. If this got out, people would think that the Qin family was disrespectful to the Ming family.
Qin Yan frowned again, he didn't care about it.
"Okay, I'm really fine, and I'll stay to help you take care of Ning Xi. If you meet any acquaintances later, you can go over to them without worry." Qin Yun continued with a smile.
He also held Ning Xi's arm.
Ning Xi looked at her and could only persuade her husband, "Forget it, let sister stay with me. Besides, after what you said just now, Ji Wei will definitely not dare to come over."
Qin Yan looked at them, and finally could only take a breath and nodded in agreement.
On the other side, Ming Qi asked the servants at home and learned that Mrs. Ji and his mother had gone to the greenhouse, so he wanted to go there.
But as soon as he walked out of the banquet hall, Ji Wei caught up with him.
"Master Ming!"
She walked up quickly and watched Ming Qi walking forward, feeling a little anxious.
Finally, he mustered up the courage to say, "Master Ming, I have something to tell you. Can we... talk?"
After hearing this, Ming Qi finally stopped and turned to look at her.
Facing the doubtful peach blossom eyes, Ji Wei's heart couldn't help but speed up. She clasped her hands together and said, "Master Ming, I, I have something to tell you."
Ming Qi pursed his lips, looked around, and said, "Let's talk over there."
He was talking about the corridor not far away, which connected the garden and the greenhouse on the other side.
Seeing this, Ji Wei nodded quickly.
The two walked over, and Ming Qi stopped under a Roman column, then leaned back slightly, "What are you talking about? Tell me."
Ji Wei looked at him, her face flushed, "I...you..."
"If you have something to say, please say it directly. Don't be so hesitant." Ming Qi frowned.
Seeing the displeasure on his face, Ji Wei became a little anxious and said hurriedly: "Master Ming, I, I will become a good wife in the future."
