Chapter 1036: Chapter 1038: Catching a Cold (6) Chapter 1036: Chapter 1038: Catching a Cold (6) Cai Yiren initially wanted to mock Lu Weixi. After all, whenever Lu Weixi had returned to the old house before, it was Qin Zhiyou who had brought her back. If she ever came back by herself, it was because Qin Zhiyou was working too late. Whenever she returned to the old house, there had never been a case where Qin Zhiyou had returned first. But today, Qin Zhiyou had clearly come back much earlier, had dinner with them, and then Lu Weixi came much later.

To her surprise, just as she was about to mock Lu Weixi, she was immediately shut down by Qin Zhigu.

Although Cai Yiren was domineering in front of Lu Weixi, she pretended to be virtuous, gentle, and obedient in front of others. But it was only in front of Qin Zhigu that she could not maintain her usual composure.

Especially when there was only one car sound, it was clear that Qin Zhigu and Lu Weixi had come back together.

She just didn’t understand. They were both ex-girlfriends of Qin Zhigu, yet he still seemed so reluctant to part with Lu Weixi, but when he saw her, he wouldn’t even spare her a lingering look. She knew in her heart that she had wronged others, but she had never wronged Qin Zhigu. She was utterly submissive to Qin Zhigu, whereas Lu Weixi used to only shout and make demands on him. Why did he still like her, so many years after they broke up, and she had been married for so long, yet he still got along so well with her!

After Cai Yiren initially froze, she quickly recovered and her voice changed, “So, Sister-in-law didn’t come back with Big Brother but went to pick up… Zhisu, huh.”

With her saying so, the focus of everyone else in the room shifted, including Qin Zhiyou. But he just looked over calmly, his gaze shifting slightly, and he didn’t say another word, simply lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

Meanwhile, Kong Jie was visibly excited; the second branch had kept a low profile for quite a while. Due to the rising prominence of the third branch, now leveraging Cai Yiren’s pregnancy and the support from the Bai Family, they confidently aimed to contend with Qin Zhiyou for the top spot.

His own son, though capable, had already declared his refusal to accept Hanhai’s influence. Furthermore, judging from his son’s behavior, it seemed to be genuine.

Qin Weijian was oppressed by Qin Zhiyou at the company and showboated by Qin Weijia at home. To make matters worse, this daughter-in-law was also Qin Zhigu’s ex-girlfriend. The affairs of Lu Weixi had already made the second branch the butt of jokes for many years, and now with Cai Yiren, it was like continuous slaps in the face, leaving him dispirited for a long time.

Now, his son had returned suddenly, and of course, he was happy. But seeing that he had come back with Lu Weixi, his blood pressure went up a bit.

Why was it Lu Weixi again, still Lu Weixi? Qin Zhizha was about to get married, couldn’t he find a girlfriend sooner?

Kong Jie, however, didn’t have as many thoughts as Qin Weijian and looked at his son happily, “Why have you come back today? You should have given us a heads up. Have you eaten dinner?” While speaking, he turned to instruct the servant, “Go tidy up the luggage.”

“I came back with Sister-in-law, we haven’t eaten. It’s quite coincidental actually, my workshop just signed a new designer who happens to have a working relationship with Sister-in-law. I ran into her today and caught a ride with her.” Qin Zhigu briefly clarified his relationship with Lu Weixi, and amidst a room full of family, especially under Cai Yiren’s watchful eyes, he did not hesitate to refer to her as “Sister-in-law.”
