Sunlight shone in from the window, making the originally spacious dining room even brighter and more colorful.

The round table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, and everyone sat around to eat.

The atmosphere at the dining table was not awkward, but there was an indescribable strangeness.

In the end, Qi Yan was forced to stay for dinner. This meal was torture for her. No matter what she ate, it felt bland and tasteless.

Recently, Qi Zhen had been busy with work and hadn’t come back at all. Only the four of them were eating this meal.

“Yan Yan, come, eat some crabs.” As soon as the meal started, Qi Zhen’s mother peeled the crab shells and gave Qi Yan some good crab meat.

Not only did Qi Yan not accept it, she even mocked, “You don’t have to put on an act with me.”

“How can you speak to your Auntie Qin like that?” Father Qi saw that she had no manners at all, so he put down his chopsticks and looked at her seriously.

“What Auntie Qin? A mistress is a mistress.” Qi Yan was no longer acting cool. She looked at her father and said arrogantly, “And you, what right do you have to talk to me?”

Every time she came back, she would turn the house upside down. This time, in front of her grandmother, Qi Yan did not give them a good look.

Father Qi had tolerated her for many years. Now, he was furious. His voice was filled with intense anger. “I’m your father. Why am I not qualified to talk to you?”

“Yan Yan, don’t be rude.” Grandma Qi’s seat happened to be between the two of them. Both sides were talking, so she had no choice but to get involved.

“Back then, when my mother’s corpse was still cold, she brazenly entered the family. If she wasn’t a mistress, what was she? When did I say anything wrong?” When she denigrated Qi Zhen’s mother, she also scolded her father. “You’re not a good person.”

There was a thorn in Qi Yan’s heart that had accompanied her for many years.

Her biological mother had taken a large number of sleeping pills at home and died from ineffective resuscitation. At that time, Qi Yan did not know why her mother did this. In her impression, her mother was depressed all day and was not happy.

She originally thought that the self-inflicted accident was a way for her mother to escape. It was only when Qi Yan returned from overseas and realized that there was an additional woman and child at home that she realized that she was naive.

According to Qi Zhen’s age, this child had already been born when her mother was still around.

Father Qi: “What do you know? I divorced your mother before I met your Auntie Qin. Otherwise, how could we have gotten a marriage certificate?”

“A widow can remarry. Do you think I’m a three-year-old?”

Qi Yan dared to say that because she knew that they had only registered their marriage after her mother passed away.

“If you don’t believe me, I can show you the divorce certificate now.”

“Who knows if you’ll use a fake divorce certificate to fool me?” Ever since that incident, she had completely distrusted this man. Even if it was true, she would not accept it. “In short, I’ll say it again. There’s no me in this family if she’s here. If there’s me, there will be no her.”

After saying that, Qi Yan stood up and left.

…

In the afternoon, a few irregular white clouds hung in the turquoise sky.

Lu Qingye moved his luggage downstairs and was about to leave for the airport.

“Do you need me to send you to the airport?” Meng Chuyuan happened to be sitting in the lobby downstairs. When she saw Lu Qingye coming down, she looked up at him.

Lu Qingye found it unbelievable that Meng Chuyuan had taken the initiative to bring up this matter.

He pulled up the handle of the suitcase, then whispered back to her, “No need.”

Jiang Yi said that he would come over later to send him off. The two of them still had some work matters to discuss.contemporary romance

Lu Qingye knew that she woke up a little early today and would definitely need to take an afternoon nap later, so he did not want Meng Chuyuan to accompany him.

“Alright, I won’t send you off later.”

Not long after, Jiang Yi drove to the Lu residence alone. The two of them chatted briefly in the living room. Afraid that there would be a traffic jam later, they could only stop chatting temporarily.

Jiang Yi had already helped Lu Qingye put his suitcase into the car. He placed his hand on the car and looked at the two of them with interest.

Meng Chuyuan only saw him to the door. Before they parted ways, she even asked him considerately, “Have you brought everything?”

“Yes.” He didn’t have much luggage to begin with. He only had a few clothes to ward off the cold. He basically carried all the important documents and necessary paperwork with him.

Seeing that their conversation was so concise, Jiang Yi asked impatiently, “Aren’t you two going to hug?”

The two of them turned sideways to face Jiang Yi. From his vision, Lu Qingye and Meng Chuyuan were probably less than three feet apart.
