Qing Ke ignored Dany and looked thoughtful, but his eyes were dull and lifeless, so empty that it made people feel pity.
Two children playing nearby accidentally dropped the ball at their feet. The two children ran over quickly, and the taller boy picked up the ball and handed it to the little boy next to him who was a head shorter than him.
"Here you go, brother. Your ball. Let's continue playing!"
"Thank you, brother!"
The little boy smiled and thanked his brother in a childish voice, and the two ran away hand in hand.
This heartwarming scene was like a slap in the face, waking Qingke up from his dream.
"I remember now, he... he is Wencai's elder brother. I've seen a photo of them together at Wencai's house."
Qing Ke finally remembered, she was still a little excited, tightly grasping Dani's arm, but this excitement was short-lived. As soon as the words fell, the excitement on her face disappeared without a trace, and her brows were furrowed.
"What did you say, Wencai's elder brother? Are you saying they came here to meet their parents?"
Danny's face looked very bad. She looked at Qingke with a puzzled look and asked Qingke in a questioning tone.
"Meet the parents?"
Qing Ke repeated the harsh words. She didn't dare to think about it at all.
She always held onto the illusion that Wen would explain to her like he did last time, that it was all a misunderstanding. But since they had both seen it with their own eyes, how could it be a misunderstanding? Qing Ke couldn't even convince herself.
"Keke, forget it. A man like this isn't worth your lingering. Go back and have your dad cut off all business with his company. Then find someone to beat them up. It would be best if you broke their legs to let them know that betrayal doesn't end well. Keke, let's go! The sun is so scorching!"
Danny deliberately picked out some harsh words to say, she thought that this would make Qingke feel better.
Qing Ke stood there in a daze, not saying a word for a long time.
Qing Ke, who used to be bold in love and hate and decisive, suddenly became like this, which made Dany feel uneasy. She didn't know how to comfort Qing Ke.
"I'm going to go up and find them now to find out what's going on."
Qing Ke was about to get up and go upstairs when she said this, but Danny forcibly pulled her back.
"How about we wait a while before going up? This is their territory after all. I'll call Ling Peng over and have him hire some strong men to help hold up the situation, so they don't think we're easy to bully and can be slaughtered at will."
"Who are you calling? They are the ones who wronged me. Are you afraid that they will eat me?"
"That's what I said, but..."
"It's nothing, I just want to see what they will do to me. I don't believe Wencai dares to touch me."
Qing Ke said this, broke free from Danny's hand, and ran madly towards the corridor. Danny grabbed the backpack on the chair and followed closely.
Danny never told Qingke what she saw that night. She felt that at this time, she really couldn't add fuel to the fire.
The two of them ran to the door of Li Wenxue's house anxiously. Qing Ke, who had been very anxious just now, raised his fist high, but it took him a long time to hit the door.
The room was filled with joy, with four people sitting around the square table. From their expressions, it was clear that Wencai and Uncle Li had reconciled, and Wencai even kept serving food to Uncle Li.
"Dad, it's been a while since you've had Shumei's cooking, right? Try it and see if you're used to it. If you are, eat more."
Wencai said this while picking up some food for Uncle Li.
Uncle Li picked up a piece of vegetable, put it in his mouth, and ate it with relish.
"Mm! Shumei's cooking skills are still as good as before. It's delicious, really delicious. You have to come over and make delicious food for me more often in the future. I will forgive Wencai just for your sake."
Uncle Li still praised Shumei as before.
"As long as uncle likes to eat, I'll be there whenever you call."
"You don't know, his mother kept talking about you as a good daughter-in-law before she left. I also know that Wencai has had a lot of ups and downs in the past few years. You are still able to stay by his side until now, which shows that you are a child who values love and friendship. You little bastard, you have done something to make your mother rest in peace. Have you got the marriage certificate?"
"Get a certificate?"
"Get a certificate?"
Shumei and Wencai repeated the word "get the certificate" in unison, their mouths slightly open and their eyes rounder than fish eyes.
At this moment, there was a hurried knock on the door.
Qing Ke finally knocked on the door with his fists, each one more rapid and forceful than the last.
"Aunt Wen, there's someone knocking on the door. Please go open it."
Wenxue heard the sound and called Aunt Wen, who was serving soup in the kitchen, to come to the door. Wenxue responded, wiped her wet hands on her apron, and walked towards the door at a leisurely pace.
The moment the door opened, before Aunt Wen could ask who the visitor was or who they were looking for, Qing Ke pushed Aunt Wen aside and she and Danny squeezed into the house.
"Li Wencai..."
When Qing Ke saw Wencai's family having a great time, talking and laughing while eating, the anger in her heart burned even more fiercely.
She didn't know how many times she had asked Wencai to bring her to meet her uncle, brother and sister-in-law, but Wencai repeatedly refused, saying that he had an irreconcilable feud with his family and was afraid that he would take his anger out on her.
But how could he bring Shumei here today? Moreover, with such a harmonious atmosphere, even a fool wouldn't believe that there was an irreconcilable feud between them! Qing Ke believed that Wencai was lying to her, lying to her from the beginning to the end, and didn't want to introduce her to his family at all.
Qing Ke's voice, which was almost like a roar, interrupted Wencai and the others' meal.
Everyone turned their eyes to Qingke and Danni. Wencai, who had his back to Qingke, also turned around and stood up from his chair in surprise.
