Chapter 216: Face Blindness, I Don’t Know What a Handsome Man Is
216 Face Blindness, I Don’t Know What a Handsome Man Is
The Qi family is indeed a well-known family in the local area, with a very magnificent villa manor.
Even though it was not his first time here, Qin Hong would still be opened-up by a wealthy family like the Qi family.
But it just broadened my horizons, nothing else.
Today is Qi's mother's birthday.
Qi's father was also at home, as well as Qi Qingyu's eldest brother and his wife, second brother and his wife, and their respective children.
Of course, there is also Wu Yu, the future son-in-law, and Qi Tianming.
Then there is Qin Hong.
Before Qin Hong came, she thought there would be a lot of people, such as other relatives and friends, but it turned out that she was the only outsider.
As for Wu Yu, he could not be considered an outsider. He and Qi Qingyu had met each other's parents and were even planning their engagement.
So this scene immediately made her feel uncomfortable and embarrassed.
Does she take herself too seriously?
Was my aunt just being polite to her? But she took it seriously...
"I'm so happy that Xiaohong can accompany me to celebrate my birthday today. Xiaohong also gave me this bouquet of flowers, they smell very good, I like them very much." Qi's mother said with a smile, holding the bouquet of carnations.
Qin Hong felt a little uncomfortable when she saw everyone looking at her, but she smiled calmly, "As long as Auntie likes it."
She was also somewhat relieved because she was overthinking it. Qi's mother had invited her here sincerely.
Both Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Qi's second sister-in-law had met Qin Hong before, but the way they looked at Qin Hong this time was different from before.
In the past, I was just polite to my sister-in-law's classmates, but they are not fools. My mother-in-law's attitude towards my sister-in-law's classmate is not ordinary.
My mother-in-law never invites outsiders to her birthday party, it's always a family get-together. But today, my sister-in-law's classmate was personally invited by her mother-in-law.
This level of importance is obvious.
They didn't have this treatment back then.
The eldest and second brothers Qi also looked at Qin Hong, and finally their gazes fell on the third brother, but they didn't say anything. They turned to talk to Wu Yu, their future brother-in-law.
As it was getting late, Qi's mother's birthday party soon began.
After everyone was seated, Qin Hong still felt a little uncomfortable, even though Qi's mother had invited him sincerely.
But she still felt that she had been a little presumptuous today.
He should have asked if anyone else was coming. Now there's an outsider like her, how embarrassing it would be.
Qi Tianming peeled a large lobster for Qin Hong and put it on a plate, then pushed it over to her. "Thank you for coming to my mother's birthday party."
"Thank you." Qin Hong said thank you subconsciously, and then said after reacting, "Third brother, you are too polite. I can do it myself."
She and Qi Qingyu were classmates, so she just followed suit and called Qi Tianming "Third Brother".
Qi Tianming smiled.
This guy is good-looking and is a very handsome type of man.
Moreover, this person is doing very well in society, and seems to be able to take on both black and white interests. Whether it is the means or other things, he has practiced them all.
Most little girls would blush before they even say anything when they meet him.
But Qin Hong didn't blush at all. She was face-blind and didn't know whether a man was handsome or not.
She couldn't receive the signal sent by Qi Tianming.
Qi Qingyu felt particularly relieved when she saw this. Wu Yu, who was sitting next to her, was chatting with Qi's father and elder brother while putting peeled lobsters on her plate.
Qi Qingyu glared at him and then peeled a crab for him.
When Wu Yu thought it was for him, the crab was placed on Qin Hong's plate: "Xiao Hong, try this crab, the crab roe is so delicious!"
Wu Yu: “…”
"Okay." Qin Hong smiled at her. Her attitude was completely different from that towards Qi Tianming. She was obviously polite and kept a distance towards Qi Tianming.
Qi's mother gave her son a look of contempt. She thought he was so capable, but Xiaohong had come to her house for dinner three times and he hadn't made any progress at all.
Qi Tianming's expression didn't change at all.
You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Girls like Qin Hong look gentle, but they are actually not good.
Now she had no intention of that kind towards him at all, but he had plenty of patience.
Qin Hong didn't know what he was thinking, but she was also a lot more relaxed because Qi Qingyu was there and they were chatting, so there was nothing to worry about.
At this time, Qi Xinxin, the eldest daughter of Brother Qi, looked at Qin Hong and asked, "Auntie, are you my uncle's girlfriend?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the table looked over.
Qin Hong was quite calm and said with a smile: "No, I am your aunt's classmate. I came here today to attend your grandmother's birthday party."
"Xinxin, you misunderstood. Your aunt Xiaohong was specially invited by your grandma to attend your birthday party." Qi's mother also said this for fear of scaring Qin Hong.
"That's right." Qi Xinxin nodded, "But why does my uncle always peel shrimps for Auntie?"
"Your uncle is just idle and has nothing to do. Isn't it normal for him to help us ladies peel shrimps? He also peeled shrimps for me." Qi Qingyu took over the conversation with a smile.
She is a scheming bitch and her third brother is using her as a cover.
Qi Xinxin immediately handed the plate over, "Uncle, I want some too."
Qi Tianming: "Ask your dad to peel it for you."
"Uncle, you are being unfair. You stripped it to my aunt and my cousin, but not to me." Qi Xinxin protested.
Qin Hong smiled and put the freshly peeled shrimp on her plate, "Auntie will peel it for you."
"Thank you, auntie. You are so kind. Why don't you marry my uncle?" Qi Xinxin said with a smile.
Mrs. Qi: "Xinxin, don't talk nonsense. This is not something you, a child, should worry about."
Qi's mother smiled broadly, "Children should not be restrained in their words. Xiaohong, come and try this abalone. It tastes really good."
I picked up a piece with a serving chopstick and the nanny brought it to me.
"Thank you, aunt." Qin Hong nodded.
Although Qi Xinxin said some cheeky things, the atmosphere at the dinner table was good and was not affected.
After a sumptuous dinner, we started cutting and eating the cake.
Qi Qingyu cut the cake for Qin Hong, and then took a piece out to eat, looking at the stars in the sky and the flowers in the garden, and chatting together.
However, while chatting, Wu Yu called him away.
Qin Hong was about to go back to her room when Qi Tianming came out with a cake and started chatting with her. "Will you feel uncomfortable tonight?"
"No." Qin Hong smiled.
Although it was a bit awkward, as she didn't expect that she was the only outsider here, Qi's mother had invited her here sincerely, and Qingyu was with her, so it was okay.
Qi Tianming said, "We all drank tonight, and the driver happened to have some business and asked for leave. Why don't you sleep in the guest room tonight? Then go to work with Qingyu tomorrow."
Qin Hong: "Is that so? Then I'll bother you."
"You don't have to be so polite. My mother likes you very much. We are busy on weekdays. I have to thank you for coming to chat with my mother and drink tea often."
Qin Hong smiled and said, "It's because my aunt didn't mind my interruption."
