Chapter 338: Seeking the Truth
When Mother Chu brought out the dishes, she saw that the two people in the living room were particularly close, especially the unusually happy smile on Chu Siran's face, which made her smile with relief.
It seems that the relationship between these two people is getting better and better. I believe that soon she will be able to arrange to welcome her son-in-law into the family.
Chu Siran came in with roses in her hands, still flirting with Qin Chaotian, "Don't ever mention that again, or I'll really get angry!"
Qin Chaotian scratched her nose and said in a doting tone, "I'll remember that."
Chu Xi was filled with jealousy when he saw this scene.
But because her parents were there, and she also wanted to leave a good impression in front of Qin Chaotian, she endured it for the time being.
"It's time to eat!" Following Mother Chu's call, everyone took their seats.
There were a bunch of delicious dishes on the table, all of which were Mother Chu's specialties. As the head of the family, Father Chu said that it was time to eat, and then everyone picked up their chopsticks.
Mother Chu poured out several drinks. Chu Xi directly reached out and handed a cup to Qin Chaotian, smiling warmly, "Brother Qin Tian, drink some water."
Chu Siran's smile faded slightly. Chu's father beside him realized something and his face turned ugly. Without saying a word, he reached out and took Qin Chaotian's drink and placed it in front of himself.
Chu Siran gave what he had in his hand to Qin Chaotian, and the atmosphere became a little better.
Chu Xi picked up another piece of braised pork and placed it in Qin Chaotian's bowl. She said with a smile, "Qin Tian, eat more meat. This is my mother's specialty! Try it."
Qin Chaotian frowned, but he didn't show his disgust on his face. The next second, he picked up his chopsticks and put the meat into Chu Siran's bowl, saying in a doting tone, "Eat more meat, you're too thin."
This action is full of love.
Chu Xi felt humiliated, and with a pale face, he stared at Chu Siran jealously.
Father Chu saw the clues and felt embarrassed when he saw Chu Xi's obvious behavior. He hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Chu Xi, your sister will take care of your brother-in-law."
Chu Siran continued with a hint of anger, "Indeed, I can take care of my fiancé, there's no need to trouble you."
Chu Xi raised his eyebrows with an ugly expression, lowered his head to eat and stopped doing stupid things.
The atmosphere relaxed a little. Chu's father and mother kept asking Chu Siran and Qin Chaotian about their marriage at the dinner table. Qin Chaotian didn't say anything. Chu Siran blushed and declined, saying that the time had not been decided yet, but it should be soon.
Looking at Chu Siran's shy look, Chu Xi's face turned ugly with anger.
She suppressed her anger and silently finished the rice in her bowl. She finished early, got up and left back to her room.
When closing the door, he deliberately made a loud noise, which made Chu's father embarrassed again. He tried to smooth things over again, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, my little daughter has always been quite willful. Please don't take it to heart."
Qin Chaotian actually didn't have much feelings for the two sisters of the Chu family, nor did he care much about them, so he didn't answer.
The table fell into a brief silence. Mother Chu placed a piece of meat in her husband's bowl and forced a smile, saying, "Let's all eat and stop talking about these unhappy things."
The dinner ended in silence. Chu Siran took Qin Chaotian to the living room to watch TV. Chu's mother cleaned up the mess in the dining room, and Chu's father went upstairs and knocked on Chu Xi's door.
"Come in." With Chu Xi's consent, Chu's father pushed the door open and went in.
Chu Xi was reading in bed when her father came in. She sat up and before he could scold her for her behavior, she started to express her inner pain with a look of grievance, "Dad! You don't even know that the person Mr. Qin really likes is me. We are in love with each other, but you gave the chance to Chu Siran!"
Chu Xi is not a biological child of the Chu family, but Chu's father treats both sisters in the same manner. Seeing Chu Xi's grievance, he wanted to ask clearly, "Why did you say that Mr. Qin likes you?"
Chu Xi began to recall that sweet scene, her face full of happiness as she spoke, "Because Mr. Qin is really good to me!"
Chu Xi got out of bed, took out a card from the drawer and handed it to Father Chu, saying with a hint of boasting, "This is the card Mr. Qin gave me for a free meal. It's one-of-a-kind!"
Father Chu looked at the unique logo of the Qin Group on the card and felt a little bewildered. He hesitated for a moment and did not give Chu Xi a definitive answer. "Chu Xi, have you ever thought that maybe Mr. Qin gave it to you just because you are about to become his..."
"I don't care!" Chu Xi angrily interrupted her father. She didn't want to be questioned! She hugged her father's arm and said coquettishly, "Dad, I really like Mr. Qin very much, and Mr. Qin treats me very well. I believe Mr. Qin must like me too."
Seeing Chu Xi's stubbornness, Chu's father couldn't make a decision for a moment. He pushed Chu Xi's hand away and promised, "Okay, I'll go back and study it, and discuss it with your mother to see what's going on. Then we'll talk, okay?"
Chu Xi was very happy to see her father give in. She stopped pestering him and nodded vigorously, pretending to be a good girl.
Father Chu got up to leave and happened to run into Chu Siran seeing Qin Chaotian off at the door. Seeing that the two of them were still interacting intimately and even hugged each other, Father Chu became more confused and went into the kitchen to discuss with Mother Chu.
After Chu Siran watched Qin Chaotian's car leave, he called Lin Yilan.
The call was quickly picked up, and Chu Siran immediately told her about her worries. "Qin Chaotian came to my house for dinner just now. My parents like him very much, but Chu Xi has been doing all kinds of bad things. I don't know what she is thinking."
Coincidentally, Lin Yilan was also thinking about Xiao Wei's affairs. Both of them were worried, so Lin Yilan asked Chu Siran, "I was thinking of going to Xiao Wei's house to take a look. Do you want to come with me?"
"Okay, I also want to go out and relax, so I'll go with you." Chu Siran accepted it happily, hung up the phone, said hello to Chu's father and mother, and went out.
Ten minutes later, Lin Yilan drove to the Chu family to pick up Chu Siran and go to Xiaowei's house.
Xiao Wei's home is very remote, and the road winds back and forth in various alleys. Chu Siran, who was sitting in the passenger seat, felt a little carsick.
When Chu Siran was about to vomit, the car finally stopped and Chu Siran quickly got out. It was quiet all around and the only street lamp was broken, flickering.
Chu Siran felt a little creepy. Lin Yilan walked around the car and came to her side. She glanced at the dilapidated tube building in front of her and said, "Let's go."
Chu Siran looked up and was frightened by the scene in front of him. He was a little timid and asked hesitantly: "Are you sure? This building looks like it will collapse if touched..."
Lin Yilan took a few steps, looked back and saw that she hadn't moved, and couldn't help laughing at her, "You are such a coward, there are people living here, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm not going." After all, Chu Siran was a young lady from a wealthy family. How could she have ever seen such a horrible scene?
"Then I'll go by myself." Lin Yilan ignored her and pushed open the door. The old wooden door made a terrible creaking sound, as if it would fall down at any time.
Lin Yilan stepped in and frowned slightly when she saw the messy scene in front of her.
Was this a robbery?
