Meng Ruya pursed her lips, speechless, her eyes reddening, on the verge of tears.
"cousin……"
"Don't try to act weak and pitiful in front of me, I won't fall for it," Qin Man shouted sternly.
Her mother and second brother were completely fooled by her gentle and weak demeanor, but she hated it the most.
When Qin Lang came home from get off work, he went to the kitchen and saw his sister looking arrogant. Meng Ruya had red eyes and immediately pulled her behind him.
"Qin Man, what are you doing again?"
"It's nothing, just chatting for a bit."
Qin Man shrugged and went to the restaurant to sit down and prepare to eat.
Qin Lang comforted Meng Ruya for a few words before taking her to the restaurant and sitting her away from Qin Man.
Moreover, she even handed over a velvet box in front of Qin Man.
"The watch I had my eye on last time, this is a specially customized model."
Meng Ruya looked at the exquisite and luxurious diamond watch and smiled in surprise.
"This...this is too valuable."
Qin Lang took out the watch and prepared to put it on her, but Meng Ruya pulled her hand back and refused in every way.
Finally, Qin Lang forcefully grabbed her hand and put the brace on her wrist.
"It doesn't matter if it's expensive or not, as long as you like it."
Meng Ruya pursed her lips. "Thank you, Second Brother Qin."
Then, she readily accepted the diamond watch.
The servants brought the food up one by one, and Madam Qin and her family of three also came over and took their seats.
"Madam, Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master, what would you like to drink?"
"It's rare to see everyone here, let's open a bottle of red wine," Qin Lu's father said with a smile.
Qin Lang replied, "Just give me some fruit juice; I need to drive someone later."
The implication was that he would be sending Meng Ruya back later.
Qin Man chewed on what was in her mouth and asked.
Do you have any green tea at home?
"Yes, Miss, would you like Biluochun tea or Lu'an melon seed tea?" the maid asked.
"Let's make some Biluochun tea. Brew a cup for Miss Meng. Green tea is the perfect match for her right now," Qin Man said with a cold smile.
Upon hearing this, the maid quickly went downstairs and brewed a cup of fine Biluochun tea, which she then presented to Meng Ruya.
Madam Qin assumed that her daughter had changed her ways, accepted Meng Ruya, and was beginning to show some goodwill.
Qin Lang was simply expressing his apology to Meng Ruya by sending her tea, as his sister had come to her senses.
"This is today's new tea. Since Xiaoman sent it, please try it."
However, Meng Ruya's expression was not so good.
She knew very well that Qin Man sending her Biluochun tea was not an apology or a gesture of goodwill, but rather a way of insulting her.
Qin Lang had just given her a diamond watch, and she immediately had someone make her a cup of green tea, saying it suited her perfectly now—a veiled insult calling her a "green tea watch."
However, Qin Lang and his wife were unaware of this hidden meaning and took it as a sign of kindness.
So, even though she was extremely unhappy, she still had to drink that cup of tea.
Qin Man's lips curled into a cold smile. "You're being ungrateful, aren't you? You refuse to leave on your own."
Sure, she has plenty of ways to deal with her. Let her have her fun.
Meng Ruya was angry, but in order to maintain her gentle image in front of Qin Lang and the elders of the Qin family, she had to endure Qin Man's sarcasm.
She just couldn't understand why Qin Man was so opposed to her and her second brother, since she and Qin Man had no major conflicts.
Fu Hanzheng has been snatched away by that brat Mu Weiwei; she can no longer be Mrs. Fu.
The two remaining brothers in the Fu family were really not her type.
Although the Qin family is not as large as the Fu family, Qin Lang's career is going well, and the Qin family is very successful in the business world, so being Mrs. Qin wouldn't be too bad.
