Although Lu Weixi wasn’t on speaker, the car was so small that Qin Zhiyou, who was next to her, could hear everything. Lu Weixi felt a bit embarrassed and immediately replied, “Well, yeah, I met him but I’m his sister-in-law. What difference does that make?”
As she said this, she distinctly felt movement beside her. The man nearby had clearly shifted closer.
Indeed, if Qin Zhigu was involved, he would inevitably meddle. Lu Weixi quickly assured him, “And it’s not just him, Cai Yiren is also with him. Qin Zhigu even helped her establish a connection with Boss Liao.”
After she said this, the movement beside her eased slightly. However, Xue Feifei on the other end of the phone gasped in shock, swearing, “What? Qin Zhigu is actually with Cai Yiren? And they’ re aiming for your job? What a scummy man and woman! What are you going to do? I remember you spent several sleepless nights and much effort on this project.”
Lu Weixi had mentioned her intentions to work for Boss Liao to her, so naturally, Xue Feifei immediately voiced her indignation.
“I’m fine. But you…”
“What about me?”
“It’s nothing, really.” Lu Weixi hesitated. She didn’t think she could explain Huang Qichu’s situation over the phone, so she decided to discuss it with her after she returned.
The two chatted for a while before ending the call. Lu Weixi looked back, Qin Zhiyou was frowning, as if lost in thought. She didn’t feel like asking, so she followed him obediently to the airport. She had thought she would be flying back to Yan City in economy class, prepared to queue for luggage check-in. But Qin Zhiyou grabbed her hand and brought her to the first-class cabin counter, ordering, “Upgrade her ticket and seat her next to me. We are heading to Yan City.”
Lu Weixi was taken by surprise, “But aren’t you…”
Qin Zhiyou’s long eyelashes slightly dropped as he pursed his lips, not saying a word. Once they reached the first-class lounge, she got the picture. Qin Zhigu was on the same flight!
This man, really. When they had just “fallen in love” and got married five years ago, he wasn’t so showy.
Would she have to stick to him like glue whenever Zhigu was around from now on?
For the two-hour flight, Zhiyou sat next to her while Zhigu sat behind her. She felt eyes constantly on her. Both Zhiyou, to her side and Zhigu behind her, was glancing at her so much she felt like she could have a hole bored through her body.
Thankfully, once the plane landed, Zhigu went back to the mansion with his parents. She was arranged by Zhiyou to take a car back to their villa on West Mountain, while he flew directly to his destination right after leaving the airport.
She was finally alone again, which eased the tension considerably. Back at the West Mountain villa, she took a nice hot bath, changed her clothes, enjoyed a good meal, and then went to bed early.
The next day was a workday. She drove her car to the company, where a pile of work awaited her. In the afternoon, she even visited Huang Caiwei and then swung by the hospital. Her mother was stable and recovering nicely. The only issue was that Zhao Zihao hadn’t returned yet.
After leaving the hospital, she completed her work for the day. As she drove back home, Zhiyou called her out of the blue: “Grandpa wants us back at the mansion. You go first, I’ll be back in a few days.”
“Okay.” Lu Weixi didn’t think much about it and headed straight to the mansion.
The moment she got out of the car, she saw Qin Zhigu.
That marked their first meeting alone in five years.
