Lu Weixi’s lips looked a bit rosy, likely due to drinking Bloody Mary. This beverage, a mixture of tomato juice and lemon juice, imparted a sweet and sour taste, which tends to appeal to women’s taste. Qin Zhiyou usually disliked this sweet and sour sensation, but tasting it on Lu Weixi’s lips, he found it quite enjoyable.
However.
He felt a sudden pain in his foot and almost bit his own lip, immediately letting go. It turned out that Lu Weixi viciously stepped on his foot under the table with her high-heeled shoe, even giving it a couple of twists.
Qin Zhiyou winced in pain, while he let go with his mouth, his hand did not. Although he nearly chipped his tooth on his own lip, he maintained a casual demeanor. With a stretch of his slender arm, he directly wrapped it around Lu Weixi’s shoulder and drew her closer. Then, as if nothing had happened, he turned to the Qin family with a smile.
Lu Weixi, however, couldn’t react too obviously since he was merely wrapping an arm around her shoulders. Judging by her face, though, she didn’t seem particularly pleased. Showing off their love was ridiculous, considering Qin Zhiyou’s numerous infidelities, as if he was asking to get slapped in the face.
Indeed, the elder Qin Weijian and Qin Weijia seemed indifferent to the scene, maintaining a somewhat disdainful expression. Qin Zhizhi and Qin Zhimei blatantly revealed their amusement.
Qin Zhizhi bluntly said, “Big brother, I ran into Xiang Yirou last week. You remember Xiang Yirou, right? You got to know her right around the time you and sister-in-law got married.”
Qin Zhimei nodded and laughed, “Yeah, speak of the devil. Yan City TV’s interview show recently reached out to me. The host is named Liu Yiyi, if I remember correctly. I heard you are quite close with her, could you tell her to go easy on me during the interview? I don’t want to embarrass myself.”
Both of them took turns poking at the weak spots of Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi.
Lu Weixi took a sip of her Bloody Mary with a slight frown. The taste of the tomato and lemon juice in the alcohol seemed somewhat sour to her.
Qin Zhiyou also frowned slightly. Usually, such insinuations wouldn’t bother him.
But Lu Weixi was by his side, and Qin Zhisu was across from them.
As expected, the mention of this made Qin Zhisu’s brow furrow more and worry flashed in his eyes as he looked at Lu Weixi.
Qin Zhizhi and Qin Zhimei’s words didn’t anger him much, but Qin Zhisu’s worried gaze did find its way into his heart.
He couldn’t help but say, “Zhizhi, I’ve heard that you’ve been frequenting nightclubs lately. The receipts you’ve handed in tell quite a colorful tale.”
Qin Zhizhi chuckled, “Yeah, but I’m just following your example, big brother. Plus, I’m not married. Even if I had a different woman every night, it wouldn’t bother anyone, would it? Don’t we all play hard before settling down?”
Qin Zhimei also jumped in, this time with Qin Zhisu as her target, “Like my second brother, he would never behave that way. But what can we say? It’s up to sister-in-law to put up with it. It’s not a big deal. Worst case, some illegitimate children might appear to claim his fortune.”
Qin Zhizhi nodded and added, “Yeah, that might be a tradition in our uncle’s family. Like in the old times, uncle used to treat our aunt exactly the same way..”
