Lin Piaoxue caught up with Lin Qinghuan and, seeing Lin Qinghuan's frosty expression, wisely refrained from provoking her.
As Qin Zhen watched Lin Qinghuan's retreating figure, a wave of bitterness washed over him. How could he have made such a basic mistake?
With a heavy heart, Qin Zhen walked into the Qin family courtyard and looked at the three women in the courtyard, feeling a mix of emotions.
Qin's mother smiled and said, "Ah Zhen, you're back. Let's get ready to eat!"
"You guys eat it yourselves, I'm not eating," Qin Zhen said bluntly, as he couldn't eat anything right now.
"Ah Zhen, Bai Lu has finally come back, you should at least sit with her for a while and have something to eat," Qin's mother said.
Qin Zhen: "Mom, you know perfectly well that I brought Qinghuan back today, but why did you make things difficult for her?"
Wang Xin snorted coldly and said with dissatisfaction, "Ah Zhen, you care so much about Lin Qinghuan, why didn't you say a word for her when I scolded her? Your eyes were glued to Bai Lu. Now you're saying this, are you trying to shirk your responsibility?"
Qin Zhen, enraged, retorted, "This is the Qin family, not the Wang family. If you want to act arrogantly, go back to your Wang family."
Wang Xin got angry too. She went back into the house, grabbed her bag, and stormed off.
Let them go, who cares about staying at the Qin family's place?
Qin's mother hurriedly tried to persuade her to stay: "Xiaoxin, your cousin was just saying that out of anger. Please finish your meal before you leave."
"Auntie, you know very well whether Ah Zhen is just saying things out of anger. I'm not that shameless. If I've been kicked out, wouldn't it be too brazen to stay?" Wang Xin said and left without looking back.
Qin's mother kept saying she wanted to match her up with Qin Zhen, but why did she call Bai Lu over? Did she look down on the Wang family?
She needs to go back and talk to her family about this. They've really slapped the Wang family in the face. Are they taking advantage of the Wang family because they think they have no one to rely on?
She's already pushed herself to her limit by enduring this long.
She really underestimated Lin Qinghuan, thinking she would be able to compete with Bai Lu. She stood behind and watched the show, but she didn't get to see the show and didn't gain anything either. She should have known better than to talk so much and get herself into trouble.
Wang Xin suddenly stopped in her tracks, her eyes widening as she thought of this.
How did my aunt know that Bailu had returned to China and even called her to come over? Unless they are in frequent contact.
The aunt's intention in bringing Bai Lu to the Qin family at this time was self-evident; she was implying that Bai Lu was her most favored daughter-in-law, and that her repeated desire for Bai Lu to marry Qin Zhen was merely an act.
Wang Xin became increasingly angry, feeling that her aunt's family was treating her like a monkey.
Outrageous! This is outrageous!
Wang Xin stormed back to the Wang family home. When the nanny saw Wang Xin return, she rushed over to help her with her bag.
"Miss is back."
Wang Xin: "Sister Fang, where are my parents?"
Fangjie quickly replied, "Madam and Master are upstairs."
Wang Xin plopped down on the sofa and ordered Fang Jie, "Go and ask my parents to come down. I have something to say to them."
Fangjie: "Yes, Miss, I'll go upstairs right away and ask Madam and Master to come downstairs."
Wang Xin sat on the sofa, her face full of resentment, wishing she could tear Qin's mother and the Qin family to pieces to vent her anger.
When Wang's father and mother came downstairs, they saw that Wang Xin looked very unwell, and their faces showed surprise.
The Queen Mother asked with concern, "Xiao Xin, what's wrong? Tell your mother, and I'll stand up for you."
Wang Xin pouted and said, "It was your dear sister who made me angry."
The Queen Mother asked in surprise, "Your aunt?"
Wang Xin: "Yes, does Mom have several younger sisters? If Mom had several younger sisters, wouldn't she have eaten you clean?"
With great interest, Mr. Wang asked, "Why would Xiaoxin say that?"
Wang Xin recounted the events of the day from beginning to end, then shared her thoughts, concluding with, "I treated her with all my heart, but she made a fool of me. It's despicable. I will never set foot in her house again."
The faces of Wang's father and mother were not good. Qin's mother's actions made them feel cold. As for Qin Zhen, although Xiao Xin was wrong, he was the one who caused the trouble. He was clearly taking his anger out on Xiao Xin.
They really think the Wang family is easy to bully.
They wanted to see how far the Qin family could go without the Wang family's help.
“We have treated the Qin family well over the years, promoting them in every way, but the Qin family treats us like fools. They are simply ungrateful,” said the Queen Mother.
Wang's father smiled indifferently. He had long known about the Qin family's power, especially Qin's mother. Qin Zhen was a good person, which was why he did not object to Wang Xin's marriage to the Qin family.
It's good for Xiaoxin to see Qin's mother's true character now, so she won't suffer after marrying into the family.
"That country girl named Lin Qinghuan has quite a bit of backbone."
"She's quite principled. She dared to talk back to Chen Si on their first meeting. No matter how good the Qin family's conditions were, she didn't care at all and broke up with them without hesitation. Her courage is commendable." As Wang's mother said this, a gloating smile appeared on her face.
Mr. Wang said earnestly, "Xiao Xin, you should control your temper, lest you say something that will cause trouble in the future and offend the wrong people. We won't be around to help you then!"
Wang Xin: "Dad, I..."
The Queen Mother frowned, her gaze towards Wang Xin filled with disapproval.
"Xiaoxin, your dad is right. You should control your temper and think things through before you act. You can't always act impulsively."
The Queen Mother's voice carried an undeniable sternness.
When Wang Xin saw that his mother was really angry, he lowered his head dejectedly.
She was very upset, but instead of comforting her, her parents scolded her.
