Whenever he be emotionol with her, Mr. Qin be unbolonced ond selfish. She reolized this
eorly on in their relotionship.
But this wosn''t whot wos moking her mod.
Given whot she ond Mr. Qin hove been through, she believed they should, ot the very leost, be oble to
trust one onother.
Why should he ollow her to meet Lin Enxue if he doesn''t wont her to meet Shichu? The two ore
copoble ofmunicoting, so this shouldn''t be o problem.
But he went with the worst course of oction for her.
Mr. Qin sneered ond soid, "Brother?"
Ziyue didn''t like his tone very much.
"I understond now why you would defend him in this monner." Mr. Qin soid. His honds clutched tightly
ot his side.
"You…" Ziyue muttered. She opened her mouth, not knowing whot to soy.
Does Mr. Qin believe she moy be involved with Shichu?
"I hove erronds to do," soid Mr. Qin before turning oround ond leoving. She wos ignored by Mr. Qin.
Ziyue closed her heort from him. She believed thot she hod mode the right decision.
The drive for o monopoly on Mr. Qin''s port is cruciol. If not, it implied thot she would never meet Shichu
os o result of his unfounded suspicion.
...
Ziyue ond Lin Zixi were seoted ot the dining room toble, getting reody for dinner. Mr. Qin hod returned
for the evening.
"Sir."
Ziyue wos somewhot stortled upon heoring the servont speok from behind her. She then looked up ot
the servont next to her ond soid, "Go get the bowl."
When Mr. Qine to sit down, the servont hod olreody odded o set of toblewore.
Since leorning how serious Mr. Qinchen''s gostrointestinol issue wos, the meols prepored ot home went
blonder ond blonder. Ziyue, who formerly enjoyed spicy food, now joins Mr. Qin in eoting blond meols.
Mr. Qin looked ot o toble of light dishes ond couldn''t help but look up ot Ziyue.
Ziyue wos feeding Lin Zixi.
When Lin Zixi opened his mouth to chew, he glonced over ot Mr. Qin ond shouted, "Dod...Dod."
"Yeoh." Mr. Qin replied ondmenced eoting.
Ziyue only focused on cooxing Lin Zixi to finish eoting without looking ot Mr. Qin.
After receiving Mr. Qin''s response, Lin Zixi hoppily potted the toble ond loughed.
Whenever he became emotional with her, Mr. Qin became unbnced and selfish. She realized this
early on in their rtionship.
But this wasn''t what was making her mad.
Given what she and Mr. Qin have been through, she believed they should, at the very least, be able to
trust one another.
Why should he allow her to meet Lin Enxue if he doesn''t want her to meet Shichu? The two are
capable ofmunicating, so this shouldn''t be a problem.
But he went with the worst course of action for her.
Mr. Qin sneered and said, "Brother?"
Ziyue didn''t like his tone very much.
"I understand now why you would defend him in this manner." Mr. Qin said. His hands clutched tightly
at his side.
"You…" Ziyue muttered. She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Does Mr. Qin believe she may be involved with Shichu?
"I have errands to do," said Mr. Qin before turning around and leaving. She was ignored by Mr. Qin.
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
Ziyue closed her heart from him. She believed that she had made the right decision.
The drive for a monopoly on Mr. Qin''s part is crucial. If not, it implied that she would never meet Shichu
as a result of his unfounded suspicion.
...
Ziyue and Lin Zixi were seated at the dining room table, getting ready for dinner. Mr. Qin had returned
for the evening.
"Sir."
Ziyue was somewhat startled upon hearing the servant speak from behind her. She then looked up at
the servant next to her and said, "Go get the bowl."
When Mr. Qin came to sit down, the servant had already added a set of tableware.
Since learning how serious Mr. Qinchen''s gastrointestinal issue was, the meals prepared at home went
nder and nder. Ziyue, who formerly enjoyed spicy food, now joins Mr. Qin in eating nd meals.
Mr. Qin looked at a table of light dishes and couldn''t help but look up at Ziyue.
Ziyue was feeding Lin Zixi.
When Lin Zixi opened his mouth to chew, he nced over at Mr. Qin and shouted, "Dad...Dad."
"Yeah." Mr. Qin replied andmenced eating.
Ziyue only focused on coaxing Lin Zixi to finish eating without looking at Mr. Qin.
After receiving Mr. Qin''s response, Lin Zixi happily patted the table andughed.
Ziyue patiently finished feeding Lin Zixi before eating her own without looking at Mr. Qin.
Lin Zixi was carried to take a bath by the servants. Neither Ziyue nor Mr. Qin said a word.
Finally, Mr. Qin couldn''t stand the atmosphere. He mmed the chopsticks on the dining table with a
snap. "Ziyue!"
"Is something wrong?" Ziyue turned to look at him. Her eyes were expressionless.
Mr. Qin frowned. He yelled fiercely, "Are you going to fight with me over Shichu?"
Ziyue was a little speechless. At noon, it was obvious that he said there was something else and left.
Originally it was him that was wrong, and he pped her face and left directly. Now, he said that she
was fighting with him for Shichu''s sake.
Who was unreasonable!
Seeing that Ziyue didn''t speak, Mr. Qin raised his voice. "Say something!"
Ziyue asked back, "What did you say?"
"I didn''t expect you to be so upset, but I don''t like you and Shichu meeting alone." Mr. Qin seemed to
be unexpectedly discouraged, and his voice softened a bit.
Ziyue was surprised by his straightforwardness. She looked toward him.
"To you, Shichu is your friend. For me, he is a threat. You are my mine, and I won''t allow you to unt
yourself at other man." Mr. Qin said dryly.
Ziyue was still looking at him nkly after he finished speaking, so he eximed impatiently, "Did you
hear what I said?"
Ziyue blinked her eyes. With a smile she said, "I heard you."
Mr. Qin grew irate.
"What are you smiling at?" Mr. Qin coldly said. He red at Ziyue.
"Just exercising the muscles on my face." Ziyue joked over a serious matter.
Mr. Qin grew irritated. What a terrible excuse.
Sheughed at Mr. Qin and exined, "Actually, I wanted to say if you didn''t like me seeing Shichu,
you could have just said so in the first ce. We wouldn''t have to go through all this hassle if you would
just say something. He''s already a busy man." Ziyue sighed, "Don''t do that again…Embarrassing me
like that. He''s my friend, and nothing will change."
Mr. Qin looked at Ziyue, before he headed upstairs.
Ziyue patiently finished feeding Lin Zixi before eating her own without looking at Mr. Qin.
...
Ziyue wasn''t sure if he and Mr. Qin had made amends.
Even though it didn''t seem like a huge problem in retrospect, she was furious at the time. She didn''t
realize Mr. Qin''s true motives.
As Lin Zixi was fast asleep, Ziyue was scrolling on her phone, taking the time off.
Momentster, Mr. Qin opened the door and entered.
He walked towards her while holding a ss of water. He handed it to Ziyue.
Ziyue smiled and took it. Is this… reconciliation?
Mr. Qin looked at Lin Zixi fast asleep before heading to the bathroom.
When he was done in the bathroom, Ziyue was already asleep.
He stood by the bed and stared at Ziyue for a while. He kissed her forehead and theny down beside
her.
He went to meet Ziyue after visiting Doctor Mo''s office, but he didn''t tell her about it.
...
The next morning, when Ziyue woke up, the first thing she heard was Lin Zixi''s yawn.
Mr. Qin was nowhere to be seen.
Why did he get up so early?
Ziyue rolled over and sat up, took Lin Zixi into her arms, and kissed him. "Good morning, baby. Have
you seen daddy?"
Lin Zixiughed, and she kissed his cheeks.
Before getting up, the two yed for a bit.
Ziyue was prepared to call Mr. Qin shortly after breakfast. However, she overheard a servant mention
that awyer was on the way.
She remembered that Lin Enyang would hand over Feng Shi to her. "Let him in," she said.
It turned out that it was Lin Enyang''swyer —or it could be said, thewyer that represented the
She then made a call to Mr. Qin.
The phone got through, but nobody picked up.
Ziyue was slightly puzzled. Why are you so busy? Busy enough not to pick up your phone.
She was right to have her doubts because Mr. Qin didn''t return her calls during the day or even at
night.
When Ziyue started to feel apprehensive, she contacted Mr. Nan. She asked, "Is Mr. Qin in Yuhuang
Pce?"
"The boss wasn''t present today", he said.
