"Lu Qi!" Xiao Xu was a little panicked and even wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Even though he knew Lu Qi's usual behavior, he didn't expect her to be so direct.
"Cousin, long time no see." Lu Qin didn't seem to mind. She even casually extended her hand and greeted her beloved sister. "It's been so long, and you don't even call me sister? How rude of you to do that in front of your parents-in-law?"
Qu Dongbo was even more surprised: "Is this your sister? I've never heard that you have a sister, how could she be with..."
Lu Qin replied indifferently: "Cousin, as for why you are here, I don't know."
"You..." Lu Qi's face turned pale and blue.
She has always been spoiled and foolish, relying on the baby in her belly, and is always dissatisfied with this and that. But she likes to pretend to be gentle and considerate in front of Xiao Xu, but she didn't expect that she would be defeated when she saw Lu Qin, and she was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Xiao's father and mother were no fools. They knew that Lu Qin's mention of "grandparents" was a warning to them. Xiao's father hurried forward, extending his hand warmly to greet Qu Dongbo and Lu Qin, while also winking at Xiao's mother: "I thought it was just age that made his eyes blur. I didn't expect Commander Qu to look so young! I can't believe it."
Qu Dongbo waved his hand. He was not one for publicity, but for Lu Qin's sake, he was very polite. "Uncle, you're too kind. I'm not a commander, but I was once the head of the 756th Regiment. After the disaster, I've been helping manage the post-disaster reconstruction work at the base."
Xiao's father had been in officialdom for a long time, so he naturally knew how to respond, and the two of them started chatting.
Meanwhile, Lu Qi was crying and making a fuss.
This was her usual tactic. Although the Xiao family disliked Lu Qi, they were not cruel people and had always tolerated him.
Lu Qin didn't interrupt Qu Dongbo and Xiao's father. She looked at Lu Qi crying, let go of her hand, walked aside, and whispered to Lu Qi:
"If you dare to cause trouble for me today, you can just wait to go to jail with your parents."
"What did you do to my parents?" Lu Qi was panicked, really panicked this time.
She hadn't seen her parents for a day. Although Xiao Xu told him that her parents took her brother out to find a place to live, she was a little skeptical. Her parents always regarded the Xiao family as their lifeline. How could they suddenly break up with the Xiao family and find a place to move out on their own?
Now that she had heard Lu Qin's words, she believed it a little more.
"You ask me?" Lu Qin raised an eyebrow. "Why don't I take you to ask your parents directly?"
Lu Qi's face turned pale, and he grabbed Xiao Xu, who was silent on the side: "Xiao Xu, where are my parents? Is what this bitch said true?"
Xiao Xu shrank aside in disgust, not wanting Lu Qi to have any contact with him: "Your parents got into trouble and were detained. I can't do anything about it."
"You..." Lu Qi's face changed drastically. He didn't expect that even Xiao Xu would say that. Just when he was about to lose his temper, he suddenly stopped talking. His face changed again and again, and finally he squeezed out a forced smile: "...A Xu, you just said that I was not good. I shouldn't have questioned you. I was wrong. Can you forgive me? For the sake of our child, please save my parents."
Lu Qin almost applauded. The speed of this facial change was truly amazing.
"I've already told you, I don't have the ability!" Xiao Xu simply moved aside. He didn't want to have any contact with Lu Qin, and he didn't want to show off in front of Lu Qin... What does that have to do with Lu Qi? "It's useless to beg me, it's better to beg Xiao Qin."
Xiao Xu raised his head and looked at Lu Qin.
"I'm not that capable." Lu Qin shrugged and refused. "I can help you because I consider you a friend, but why should I help her? Don't you know that it was her parents who put my mom in the hospital?"
Lu Qi was a little shocked. He bit his lower lip again and again, still unwilling to give in. He retorted: "What right do you have to say that about my parents? Your mother is in the hospital..."
"You dare say another word?" Lu Qin had no patience to listen to her, her eyes cold: "Lu Qi, listen to me, your family better behave and don't cause any trouble, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen to you!"
Perhaps her words were a little harsh, which alarmed Qu Dongbo. He frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I can handle it." Lu Qin didn't want to tell Qu Dongbo all these complicated things.
Qu Dongbo walked towards her and said, "I'm not sure what happened, but if you have any problem, you must tell me."
Lu Qin nodded: "I'll talk to you when we get back."
Seeing that everyone was defending Lu Qin, Lu Qi was unsure how to end the situation. Suddenly, she screamed, clutching her stomach and trying to fall onto Xiao Xu: "My stomach hurts..."
Xiao's mother was quick to pull Lu Qi, who was about to pretend to faint, and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Lu, I made you laugh."
"Auntie, I haven't seen this little sister for a long time, and I don't know what's wrong with her. If she has a stomachache, the shelter isn't far from here. I'll take her there."
Xiao's mother naturally didn't dare to trouble Lu Qin, so she had to say awkwardly that she would let them come.
Xiao Xu stood aside, at a loss. Finally, it was Xiao's father who spoke up, and Xiao's mother stayed to take care of Lu Qi.
Lu Qin sighed.
She didn't want to get involved in this farce, but some people just wouldn't let her go.
Without Lu Qi, the meal went very smoothly.
After a simple meal, Qu Dongbo offered to help with the move, but the Xiao family didn't dare to bother him and refused to let him help no matter what.
"Then I won't delay your moving business." Qu Dongbo said goodbye angrily and left with Lu Qin.
…
"So your uncle's family originally came to seek refuge with your family?" On the way back, Lu Qin briefly described to Qu Dongbo the relationship between her uncle's family and Xiao Xu's family.
"Yeah, that's what happened." Lu Qin said helplessly, "So I don't know whether I should be happy for my family or sympathize with Xiao Xu's family. Anyway, everyone who has anything to do with my uncle's family is very pitiful."
"So you feel sorry for him?" Qu Dongbo's focus shifted again.
"What's going on?" Lu Qin said, "We were clearly talking about my uncle's family, why are you bringing Xiao Xu and me into this?"
"I don't think he's as good as you say." Qu Dongbo didn't care at all: "He says he likes you, but he's entangled with your sister. He has no sense of responsibility. He has no ability to handle things at all. We have to trouble his parents, who are so old, to come out and deal with his personal problems for him."
"What a scumbag. He doesn't deserve it." Qu Dongbo complained at the end.
"..." Lu Qin was speechless. It was the first time she heard Qu Dongbo complain about someone like that.
Is this probably because rivals in love are meeting and are extremely jealous of each other?
