Chapter 178 How Dare He Come



Qi Zhijun's already ugly face became even darker: "Yingying, what are you talking about? Why don't I care about you? Isn't it me who handles Sun Hui's affairs?"

Zheng Yingying's tears suddenly fell, her voice choked with sobs, and she didn't speak for a while.

Qi Mengmeng came out of the kitchen carrying a plate and saw this scene. Zheng Yingying lowered her head and ran back to her room.

Zheng Meili came out later and also saw Zheng Yingying running back to the room with her head down. She looked at Qi Zhijun.

Qi Zhijun shook his head slightly, meaning that he would talk about it later.

Zheng Meili was anxious, but she couldn't go to see Zheng Yingying at this time. She could only force a smile, put the things in her hands on the table, went to the kitchen, checked the fire before going to Zheng Yingying's room.

"Yingying, why are you crying again?" Zheng Meili said anxiously as she entered the room.

Zheng Yingying twisted the handkerchief she was holding into a knot. When she heard Zheng Meili's voice, she cried out in grievance, "Mom..."

"Mom knows you've been wronged, but things have passed. After a while, I'll ask a matchmaker to find you a better partner, a thousand times better than Sun Hui." Zheng Meili said anxiously, and took the handkerchief from Zheng Yingying's hand to wipe her tears.

"Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year. You can't cry. Otherwise, this year will be a bad year for you."

Zheng Yingying lowered her head, raised it slightly, and asked carefully, "Mom, will you ignore me?"

"No, of course not. In my heart, you are my daughter. How can I ignore you?" Zheng Meili held Zheng Yingying in her arms and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a good partner for you, and you will definitely live a good life."

Zheng Yingying murmured, "Mom, tell me, how could Sun Hui lie to me? Why did he lie to me?"

"It's over, it's all over." Zheng Meili patted Zheng Yingying on the back and said with great heartache.

"Mom, tell me, will my dad stop caring about me? I'm not your biological daughter. He already has Qi Mengmeng." There was a hint of fear in Zheng Yingying's voice.

"No, Qi Mengmeng is already married. We are two families. You grew up with us, so you are our daughter. Your father said that he would definitely find a good family for you and let you marry off with honor."

Zheng Meili tried her best to assure him, fearing that Zheng Yingying would think too much.

"Mom, do you really consider me your own daughter?"

"Yes, you are my biological daughter."

Zheng Meili comforted Zheng Yingying for a long time before she calmed down. She looked in the mirror and pouted: "My eyes are red. Mom, you should go out first, or Dad will be unhappy."

"Your father won't be unhappy, he cares about you too." Zheng Meili said this and stood up.

Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year, the day when Qi Mengmeng goes back to her parents' home, so she can't just sit in the house all the time.

"Yingying, there's something cooking in the pot. I'll go check it out first. You'll be out soon. If you get along well with Qi Mengmeng, your dad will definitely be happy."

Zheng Meili explained to Zheng Yingying seriously: "You grew up with us. Qi Mengmeng is your father's biological daughter. Your father would definitely like to see you two have a good relationship."

Zheng Yingying didn’t know whether she heard it or not, she just said "hmm" in a low voice.

"Yingying, you call me mom. I really treat you as my own daughter." Zheng Meili was worried that Zheng Yingying would overthink it, so she held her hand and assured her again.

Zheng Yingying then looked up at Zheng Meili. She saw worry and anxiety on Zheng Meili's face.

"Mom, you go out first. I'll be out soon." Zheng Yingying forced a smile.

Zheng Meili saw that she was in better condition than before, so she went to the kitchen.

Qi Mengmeng was using a spatula to stir the meat in the pot, and Zheng Meili hurried forward to take the spatula.

"Mengmeng, I'm here in the kitchen, you can sit outside for a while."

Qi Mengmeng came in just now because she was afraid that the food in the pot would get burnt. Now that she saw Zheng Meili coming in, she backed out.

Gu Guizhi was talking to Qi Zhijun, and Zheng Yingying didn't come out until dinner time.

Qi Zhijun had been on guard against Zheng Yingying, but maybe she had thought it through, she was actually much more normal than before, talking to Qi Mengmeng from time to time and even picking up food for her.

But Qi Mengmeng never liked others picking food for her, so she didn't accept it.

Zheng Yingying's face looked ugly for a moment, then she calmed down and continued eating.

Zheng Meili moved the pork skin jelly that Qi Mengmeng had picked up with two extra chopsticks to her and said with a smile, "This is the pork skin jelly I made myself. It tastes pretty good. I'll give you some when Mengmeng leaves later."

Qi Zhijun also said, "Your Aunt Zheng's pork skin jelly is really delicious. Take some later."

After both of them said that, Qi Mengmeng smiled and nodded, saying that if there was any more at home, she would take some.

"Yes, I bought a particularly large piece of pork skin this year, so I made some extra." Zheng Meili stood up and was about to cut some, but Qi Zhijun asked her to eat first and talk about it after she was done.

In the following time, Zheng Yingying was very quiet, but the atmosphere at the dinner table was quite good. Qi Zhijun smacked his lips and said with emotion: "After two years, when Mengmeng has a child, the house will be more lively."

Zheng Meili also nodded and looked at Zheng Yingying: "That's right, in the blink of an eye, Yingying has grown up so much."

Qi Mengmeng and Gu Guizhi looked at each other and felt that Qi Zhijun's wish might not be realized in one or two years.

After all, no one knows when Gu Guizhi's body will recover.

Just as Gu Guizhi was about to say something, Qi Mengmeng kicked him under the table and shook her head slightly.

Don't bring up matters concerning the children.

Gu Guizhi nodded at Qi Mengmeng and served her a bowl of soup.

Everyone can see that Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng have a good relationship.

Qi Zhijun was very pleased and felt that there was no problem with this marriage. However, Zheng Meili looked at Zheng Yingying worriedly, wondering when Zheng Yingying could get married.

Zheng Yingying held the chopsticks in her hand and poked a piece of pork skin jelly in the bowl into pieces.

The meal was finally over, Qi Mengmeng and Zheng Yingying helped Zheng Meili clean up the table.

Qi Zhijun took out the tea that Qi Mengmeng had given him and asked everyone to drink some tea and chat.

The tea was brewed and everyone was poured a cup. Before anyone had time to drink it, there was a knock on the door.

Qi Zhijun subconsciously went to open the door, thinking that something happened in the army.

The young soldier outside the door saluted and said somewhat embarrassedly that someone outside the family compound was looking for Zheng Yingying.

Zheng Yingying walked to the door and asked in surprise, "Who's looking for me?"

Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year and school hasn't started yet. Who would come to her house to see her?

The young soldier looked at the people in the room and said with some embarrassment, "It's a gay man."

Qi Zhijun immediately realized that it was Sun Hui, but how could he dare to come?
