Qin Zhigu, the one who was spoken to, had been sitting with his back towards them all this while, but at this moment, his body stiffened almost instantly.
After a while, he slowly got up rigidly, and as he turned his head, a gust of wind happened to blow, stirring Lu Weixi’s long hair. A few strands of her hair softly fluttered to the side of his face, not only bringing her scent with them but also a tickling sensation as if tiny hands were scratching at his heart.
Like Lu Weixi, he too had long prepared himself to face her. But no matter how much mental preparation he did, the sudden encounter still made his heart feel somewhat uncomfortably distressed.
Moreover, how did she get on the boat? Didn’t she not attend last night’s banquet? He also heard that Qin Zhiyou has been out there having fun, changing women continuously, seemingly not valuing her at all. How has she been in these five years? Why did her character change like this?
Many words were stuck in his heart, causing discomfort. However, when he opened his mouth, all he could say was, “Big brother.”
As for saying “sister-in-law”, he just could not utter those words.
Qin Zhiyou gave a hum. Lu Weixi did not look at him and gave no response. Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi were sitting in a round sofa seat by the window that could accommodate seven or eight people. Since these ignorant individuals came to join them, he naturally moved closer to Lu Weixi to “give up” his seat.
When Mr. Liao came over, Qin Zhigu reluctantly followed. Cai Yiren looked at Qin Zhigu, then at Lu Weixi sitting opposite, hesitated for a moment, then shamelessly sat down as well. Lu Weixi did not object.
Since Lu Weixi didn’t object, Qin Zhiyou had even less reason to object. Although he never had much respect for Cai Yiren, he had to admit that if it weren’t for Cai Yiren’s meddling back then, Lu Weixi and Qin Zhigu wouldn’t have broken up, and he wouldn’t have ended up with her.
Once the three were seated, a fresh set of dishes and cutlery were brought forth. Qin Zhigu felt too embarrassed to keep looking at Lu Weixi, so he kept his gaze on the flowers in the center of the table.
Then, by chance he saw the tightly entwined fingers of the two, each adorned with a ring. Although no words were exchanged between them, but their identity at this moment was strongly revealed: husband and wife.
His heart ached, just a little.
He didn’t speak, and naturally, Cai Yiren didn’t either.
Five years ago, Qin Zhigu broke up with her on the day Lu Weixi and Qin Zhiyou got married. Although their love story lasted for three months, the time they spent together didn’t exceed a week. Moreover, they hardly exchanged any romantic words or engaged in any displays of affection, let alone intimate contact.
After they broke up, Qin Zhigu went to America. Even though Bai family’s main business focus was in Australia, she still followed him to California without hesitation.
Shortly after Qin Zhigu entered university, he started dating an Asian girl. She had met this girl. She was outgoing, and her look resembled Lu Weixi to a certain degree.
She tried to use her tear-filled eyes, looking pitiful, to win back Qin Zhigu’s heart. The Asian girl noticed, thought he was two-timing, and she broke up with him without hesitation. But even after they broke up, he never turned back to her, instead he started dating a fiery-tempered Latina. Then there was a second one, a third one.
After several changes, though their skin color was different, each one was outgoing, hot-tempered, almost a replica of Lu Weixi..
