Chapter 17 Refusal to Admit



Chen Xingling turned his head and saw Gu Qi's tall and thin figure walking in.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, then apologized and explained: "Uncle Qin came earlier, and I had to go out for a while. Why did you come out? Are you hungry?"

Chen Xingling pouted: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, but I can't wait to find food by myself."

The Qin family again?

Chen Xingling remembered most of the plots in the original book and knew that Qin Tiantian's mother was very good at dealing with people, especially Uncle Qin, who was very good at dealing with people and was very good at fooling people with his mouth.

Ying was led by the couple and ended up taking many detours and even ending up in a dead end.

In fact, Qin Tiantian's eagerness to steal me away as her mistress was secretly taught by her parents.

Not only does he want to marry his most beloved daughter to Gu Qi, a young and promising man with a bright future, but he also wants to use Gu Qi's connections to secure a job for his daughter. At the same time, he covets Gu's old house and land on the outskirts of Shangjing City.

Look! Gu Qi has only been back for a day and they are already impatient.

Gu Qi listened to her coquettish voice and felt more guilty.

"I'm sorry. The lease of the old house in the suburbs is up at the end of the year. The tenant was introduced by Uncle Qin, so I have to draft a lease for the tenant. It's cold outside, and the tenant is in a hurry to leave the city, so I have to deal with him first."

"No." Chen Xingling laughed softly: "I've already made something to eat, go ahead if you need to."

As far as she knew, Gu Qi had no feelings for the Qin family, including Qin Tiantian who always wanted to pay him back.

He is a straight man who is devoted to his work. Although he is not good at dealing with interpersonal relationships, he is calm and steady in other aspects. So she doesn't have to worry about the Qin family's dirty hands having the opportunity to touch the Gu family's real estate or land.

Little Tiger ran over and hugged Gu Qi's thigh.

"Dad, Mom made noodles for us! Eat them!"

Gu Qi nodded gently and said softly, "It's windy and very cold. Let's all go back to the house."

At this time, Ying's signature loud voice came from the backyard.

"You, Chen! You hid the noodles secretly! You deliberately didn't work and were lazy, and you said you didn't want to eat! Then you hid secretly to eat noodles! You even dared to fool me!"

Gu Qi frowned when he heard this, but still stood there calmly.

Chen Xingling suppressed his laughter and leaned out.

I saw Ying walking towards the kitchen angrily, followed by Gu Miao who was holding a pot and eating instant noodles. I knew without guessing that she was here to cause trouble for me.

Chen Xingling was worried that she would not have the opportunity to expose more of the worst mothers-in-law's behavior towards their daughters-in-law to Gu Qi, so she thought the opportunity had come and hurriedly stepped out of the door to greet him.

"Mom, I heard you weren't feeling well this afternoon. Are you feeling better now?"

Ying stopped and glared like a female demon with her hands on her hips.

"You're the reason why I feel uncomfortable! Not only do you not work, you also eat secretly! You even secretly hid so much delicious noodles! Tell me! Do you always hide things when you cook every day?! Is that right?!"

Chen Xingling shook his head: "Of course not. Mom, it's very cold outside, please go back to the house quickly."

"No!" Gu Miao, who was eating from a big pot, said in a rough voice, "What is this? Where did it come from? Did it fall from the sky? Huh?!"

Chen Xingling glanced at Gu Miao and chuckled, "This is the dried noodles my brother from my mother's side sent me. Mom, you usually go to the table, I can't interfere. You always arrange what to cook and what to eat, so I don't have the chance to hide anything. Besides, every time you eat, you eat first, and I can only sit at the table last. You know exactly what I eat."

"Sent from my parents?" Ying narrowed her eyes and asked, "Didn't they only send some seaweed and squid last time? Where did the dried noodles come from? How come I don't know about it!"

Chen Xingling was confident and answered, "The dry noodles were just sent."

"Anything else?" Ying ordered, "Hand it all over! Don't keep anything! So what if it's from your mother's house? You are living in our Gu family's house and eating our Gu family's food. I told you a long time ago that anything sent by your mother's family must be handed over to the kitchen. You ignored my words, didn't you?"

Chen Xingling shook his head: "No more."

But her space is extremely huge, and it is countless.

Gu Miao, who was sipping her soup at the side, did not even bother to drink it after hearing this. She said excitedly, "Mom! She lied to you again! Earlier, Xiao Huzi said he didn't want to eat it, and she also said she would cook it for him next time! She must have more in her room! She is obviously trying to lie to us again!"

Chen Xingling waved his hand and said, "There really is nothing in the room right now. If you don't believe me, you can go and search."

"Mom, maybe she hid it secretly when we were not around." Gu Miao muttered: "This noodle soup has chopped green onions and oil, and very fragrant chili powder. If she didn't hide it, how could she get so many ingredients to cook this noodle."

When Ying heard this, she was furious and snorted coldly: "You even hid the chopped green onions! You are a country fisherwoman! You pretend to be honest, but who knows you have such a sneaky look and a rotten stomach!"

Chen Xingling turned his face away and refused to admit: "I really didn't hide it."

Gu Miao hurriedly urged: "Mom, let's go search. She must have hidden a lot, otherwise how could she cook such delicious noodles! Wait until we find out, and see if she has any excuses! When big brother comes later, we have to tell him!"

"Hey!" Ying tried to move forward, but stopped in fear.

Gu Qi was seen leading the little tiger slowly across the threshold of the kitchen, his handsome face was cold and gloomy, and his eyes looked at them coldly.

Both Ying and her little daughter were shocked!

Gu Miao let out an "uh" sound and quickly handed the pot forward.

"Brother! Look! Chen secretly hid the noodles and ingredients! She even hid in the kitchen and ate them secretly! I saw it with my own eyes earlier!"

Gu Qi didn't move. He didn't look at her or the pot in her hands. His calm and cold face showed no expression.

Gu Miao swallowed and felt uneasy.

She didn't know if her eldest brother was angry, but every time he didn't speak, she couldn't help but be afraid of him.

Ying dodged his gaze a few times and put on a disingenuous smile.

"Aqi, your wife is so dishonest. She always steals things from home and keeps them for herself. Look, my younger sister found out on the spot, and there is solid evidence. It's not easy for you to make money. When there is a little food at home, we have to give in to each other, and I have to go hungry from time to time. But she embezzled the food while working in the kitchen and kept it for herself. But she still refused to admit it. Ah Miao and I were very angry with her!"

"No." Chen Xingling pretended to be angry and shouted: "I have never hidden anything in your house! If you don't believe me, go and search! If you find anything, I will leave immediately!"

When Ying heard this, her eyes lit up and she made a move to walk towards their room.

"Ah Miao, let's go! Let's search!"
