They parried words back and forth, at first, Qin Zhiyou thought about countering what they were saying, but as they continued talking, his face gradually fell.
Yu Sixing and He Weiyou were also present. Upon hearing this, Yu Sixing immediately intervened, “Qin Zhimei, what are you talking about?”
He knew that there were two personal matters deeply affecting Qin Zhiyou that others should not touch. One was Lu Weixi, the other was his father.
Whoever brought up these two topics would definitely provoke a tsunami-like reaction from him.
He Weiyou quickly chimed in, “Sis, don’t be angry, Zhiyou is not that type of person.”
He and Yu Sixing spent every day with Qin Zhiyou. They have always had the impression that Qin Zhiyou’s reputation for being a womanizer was more talk than action. At the very least, they had never seen him bring a woman home to stay the night.
At one side, Qin Zhigu furrowed his brows, quietly criticizing, “Both of you, stop talking.”
He wasn’t too concerned about his uncle’s affairs, but he was afraid that Lu Weixi would be upset.
Although he spent the past few years abroad and didn’t come back to China, purposely not keeping up with the news about Lu Weixi, he was aware of Qin Zhiyou’s womanizing reputation. Every time he heard about it, he was both angry and upset.
He was angry that Qin Zhiyou married her but did not cherish her, and instead played around outside. What upset him was the fact that he no longer had the right to protect her or stand up for her.
But if someone were to expose her wounds in front of everyone, he would still defend her dignity immediately.
Qin Weijian and Kong Jie held back their thoughts due to their status, yet Qin Weijia looked satisfied, pretending to be calm, “Zhimei, Zhizhi, watch your words. No matter how many women are outside, can any of them be presented publicly? Your sister-in-law is of course the most important now.”
On the opposite side, Qin Zhiyou didn’t say a word. He slightly lowered his eyes and withdrew the arm that was around Lu Weixi, placing it under the table. As he had his head down, the people around couldn’t see his facial expression or guess what he wanted to say.
However, Lu Weixi, who was sitting next to him, saw that his arm muscles were implicitly tense, indicating that he was angry.
After five years of marriage, although she couldn’t say that she fully understood Qin Zhiyou, she did understand some things. Qin Zhiyou always seemed carefree and indifferent to everyone. He even had little respect for his own mother, Yang Mogui, always arguing with her.
But in reality, he values family ties. For example, his grandfather and his father.
Regarding his grandfather, although he wasn’t as fawning or flattering as the other Qin family members, he always listened carefully to his grandfather’s instructions and executed them well.
His father, even though Qin Zhiyou never spoke of it, there was a piece of knowledge she was aware of. Every year, during the season when maple leaves turned red, the day his father passed away, he would always fly to Vancouver.
Even towards Yang Mogui, although Qin Zhiyou would often argue with her, if she insisted on something, he’d give in to save his mother’s face. For example, when Yang Mogui wanted him to come back home to have a child with her.
Qin Zhiyou’s right arm that was tense took a long time to relax. He lifted his head, and his expression became sharp and distant. His dropped hand was placed back on the table, just as he was about to say something, Lu Weixi quietly nodded, “You’re right..”
