Seeing everyone looking at her strangely, Qin Huaiyi awkwardly looked away.
Seeing this, Wei Yang tugged at her sleeve and said to Grandpa Chu, "Grandpa Chu, we'll be going now. We'll come to visit you again next time."
Grandpa Chu snorted and said bluntly, "Xiao Yang, your parents are both smart people, how come they gave birth to such a dim-witted person like you?"
"You grew up in a compound, how come you still can't distinguish right from wrong?"
“If you continue to act so tactlessly next time, Grandpa Chu won’t welcome you.”
This is both a suggestion and a warning.
If Wei Yang came to our house alone, that would be fine; he was a child whom the older generation in the compound had watched grow up, and they would welcome him.
Unfortunately, he also brought Qin Huaiyi with him, and everyone knew that Qin Huaiyi liked Chu Wuyou.
Her affections and pursuits brought Chu Wuyou a lot of trouble and distress.
Even after being refused, they still brought people to the Chu family's house; it was clearly disgusting.
Everyone present knew perfectly well that Qin Huaiyi's few words had exposed her character and personality.
The Chu family has always kept their distance from such people.
Grandpa Chu's words were rather harsh. Wei Yang's expression changed upon hearing them. He wanted to refute but dared not, and could only nod in agreement, "I understand, Grandpa Chu."
Although his father and Chu Xiaonian were comrades-in-arms, in terms of strength, the Wei family was far inferior to the Chu family.
Apart from Chu Wuyi, who accomplished nothing, any member of the Chu family is a formidable figure.
Qin Huaiyi was brought by Wei Yang. The Chu family made their stance clear to Wei Yang, and if Wei Yang wasn't stupid, he would know what to do next.
As for Qin Huaiyi, she was just a young girl and was not taken seriously by the three powerful figures of the Chu family.
Let the younger generation handle it.
Actually, Qin Huaiyi regretted it a little after saying those words.
She watched as Qin Yushen and Lin Xiaoxiao were treated like VIPs by the Chu family. Even the usually serious Chu Weinian and Chu Xiaonian were all smiles and gentleness towards the two of them, as if they were juniors in their own family.
Then, thinking back to the setbacks she had suffered in the Chu family.
In order to get along well with the Chu family, she tried every means to please them.
After two years of hard work, she was still rejected, and this sense of disappointment made her feel very bad.
Lin Xiaoxiao is out of the question; she already had a good relationship with Chu Wuyan.
What gives Qin Yushen the right to do this?
What gives him the right to return to Beijing?
He must be coming back to fight her and her brother for the inheritance.
Thinking about Old Master Qin's recent health condition, Qin Huaiyi's eyes flickered, and she kept making up her mind.
Even though the old man, who came from a capitalist background, is now down on his luck, he still has a lot of good stuff hidden away.
That old geezer saw that Qin Yushen was promising, so he wanted to place the Qin family's hopes on Qin Yushen, but he also wanted to see if she and her brother would agree.
"Let's go, Xiaoyi." Wei Yang saw that her eyes were glazed over and thought she was frightened, so he felt a little sorry for her.
Qin Huaiyi came to her senses and looked up to meet Qin Yushen's cold gaze.
She gritted her teeth. She had originally wanted to take this opportunity to see Brother Wuxuan properly, but who knew that Qin Yushen and his wife were also there. She was really unlucky.
Moreover, she felt a vague unease in her heart.
Qin Yushen is not one to make baseless accusations; if he dared to say such a thing, he must have found out something about her.
The thought of a second person knowing her most secret made Qin Huaiyi shudder, and a chill ran down her spine.
She stopped talking and planned to leave with Wei Yang.
I had only taken two steps when I was called back.
"stop."
She didn't even need to turn around to know it was Qin Yushen.
I was angry at his relentless pursuit, and I regretted my impulsiveness and quick tongue.
Qin Yushen repeated, "Apologize to my wife."
His voice was extremely cold, sending chills down Qin Huaiyi's spine.
Enveloped in a tense atmosphere, Qin Huaiyi bit her lip, turned to face Lin Xiaoxiao, and said with her head down, "I'm sorry."
Would Lin Xiaoxiao let her off so easily?
That's impossible.
She's notoriously vengeful.
But Qin Huaiyi's retribution will come later. She won't hold it against her too much today, just as Qin Yushen thought, since they are in the Chu family.
But Lin Xiaoxiao felt unwilling to let her go so easily.
So the instant Qin Huaiyi finished speaking, she sneered as if her little mouth was poisoned, "I thought you had a lot of backbone, but you apologize as quickly as you curse."
Qin Huaiyi's face darkened, and she ran away.
Wei Yang quickly went after him.
With everyone else gone, the Chu family was about to start their meal.
Dinner was very lavish, enough to feed Old Master Chu, Chu Weinian, and Chu Xiaonian all in one meal. It included chicken, duck, fish, and meat. At this time, without connections, it would have been impossible to get so much fresh food.
Grandpa Chu's staff worked all afternoon to prepare a table full of dishes, which were delicious and visually appealing.
At the dinner table, everyone was laughing and chatting, without any of the usual rules about not speaking while eating or sleeping.
Xiao Bao sat between his parents, being fed by both of them at the same time, taking a bite from the left and then a bite from the right.
At this moment, he is the happiest child in the world.
Halfway through the meal, Chu Wuxuan and Cheng Muxi simultaneously raised their wine glasses to toast Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Comrade Lin, my wife and I must toast you today, no matter what. We are very grateful to you for saving Xiaobao's life."
The couple had just returned home to recover from their injuries and wanted to find an opportunity to invite Lin Xiaoxiao to dinner to thank her in person.
Unfortunately, Lin Xiaoxiao was not in Beijing, so the plan was temporarily put on hold.
Upon learning of Lin Xiaoxiao's return, the Chu family quickly planned this dinner party.
