On second thought, there were diverse opinions in the mansion. The current residents included their younger generation, as well as Qin Zhimei and Qin Zhizhi. They were unlike Qin Zhiyou, who had built their own lives outside the house. Out of wanting to please their grandfather, they all chose to live here.
Kong Jie and Qin Weijian only had to deal with himself and their mother. When it came to Lu Weixi, caution was warranted, considering she had a past relationship with their son, who knew what kind of influence he could exert.
“Hmm.” Thus thought, Qin Zhiyou cooled down. He was about to speak when the secretary Wang called, “Mr. Qin, can you reschedule the dinner meeting with President Tian to tonight? Mr. Tian says he might be busy the day after tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Qin Zhiyou nodded. He glanced at Lu Weixi and had an idea, “Ask him if he is available at noon today. If so, we can have a chat over lunch.”
Secretary Wang agreed and carried out the instructions, Lu Weixi looked surprised at first, then visibly relaxed.
It seemed that he did have a lot of work to handle, considering there was probably plenty of unfinished business awaiting him. Then it took her aback: she always thought of herself as a workaholic, but this man was even more so.
Or maybe it was because Qin Zhisu was here, and he felt he had to redouble his efforts.
As expected, Qin Zhiyou went on to say, “We might need to stay in the mansion a bit longer. If grandpa doesn’t say anything, we can’t go back for now.”
Lu Weixi nodded.
Although it was more comfortable for the two of them living alone in the West Mountain villa, it didn’t matter to occasionally live back home, as grandpa preferred a bustling household. The meddling from the second and third aunts was bearable as long as she chose to ignore them.
This was indeed the time she woke up usually, but now that she had talked to Qin Zhiyou, she was fully awake.
Since Qin Zhiyou wasn’t resting at this hour and was also about to go to work, he went to take a shower and changed his clothes. Lu Weixi also quickly got ready and went downstairs.
Downstairs in the dining room, other than the married couple, the only ones awake were Qin Zhisu and old master Qin. Qin Weijian usually got up early on workdays, but he came home rather late last night, so he was still asleep at this time.
With the presence of old master Qin, the brothers Qin Zhiyou and Qin Zhisu didn’t get into any fights, keeping their heads down and eating their meals quietly.
Perhaps it was too early, not everyone was up, and also because they all had to work soon, the old master Qin didn’t say much. He simply instructed them, “Come home early tonight. Let’s have a family gathering. Zhiyou, your mother will arrive in the afternoon.”
Finally, Yang Mogui was willing to stop fooling around? Moreover, her first move before talking to her son was to approach old master Qin, making her presence felt; it was speechless. But apparently, Qin Zhiyou had already gotten used to it. Lu Weixi suddenly thought, could he have foreseen that he wouldn’t make it to dinner tonight?
However, when Qin Zhiyou saw the small runabout she was driving, he frowned deeply. He directly reached out to her arm and pulled her towards his car.
Lu Weixi was taken aback: “What’s wrong?” She had her own car. Did Qin Zhiyou want to say something and didn’t feel comfortable discussing it publicly?
Qin Zhiyou pulled her to the side of his car, opened the car door and pushed her in, then walked around to the other side and got in. Lu Weixi was about to get out, but was grabbed by him: “Don’t move. He’s watching.”
The words were like a tightening spell; following his directive, Lu Weixi turned her head around; Qin Zhisu’s gaze was on them. She quickly withdrew her neck back.
Qin Zhiyou’s eyelashes lifted slightly: “For the days we are living in the mansion, you should go to work with me..”
