Chapter 1046: Chapter 1048 Hidden Worries (4) Chapter 1046: Chapter 1048 Hidden Worries (4) Lu Weixi stood at the corner of the street, watching Qin Zhiyou and Fang Rushuang from a distance. They seemed to have chosen a seat by the window, but the view was obscured by trees and wooden panels in the building, making it difficult to discern anyone inside unless one looked closely.

She thought she would rush over immediately, screaming hysterically, or, like when she broke up with Qin Zhigu before, turn away indifferently with all the heart-wrenching pain kept inside.

But she didn’t.

It wasn’t that she wasn’t angry or surprised. Perhaps it was because she had matured now, and she hadn’t figured out the situation yet, so she wasn’t in a hurry. Maybe it was because–her relationship with Qin Zhiyou hadn’t reached that stage yet. She just stood quietly at the nearby corner, watching them.

After a while, she chose neither to approach them nor to call him, but turned around and walked toward her car.

She was no longer the twenty-two-year-old she had been; she was an adult and married. If Qin Zhiyou was still in his old ways, that would be another story, but now, he had decided to return to his family, having sworn never to cheat.

Of course, a man’s promises counted as much as pigs flying. She wouldn’t simply believe any illusory vows; she preferred to trust herself. She was just calmer, more rational, and cherished herself more.

If he didn’t want to tell her about Fang Rushuang, she would wait until he chose to tell her.

Until that day, she was willing to trust Qin Zhiyou,

Lu Weixi glanced a couple of times, then calmly left, reached her car, started it, and drove off.

Although it wasn’t snowing anymore, the temperature was still very low, and the roads could become icy and slippery if wet.

Lu Weixi drove all the way back to the old house, and Qin Zhigu was somewhat surprised to see her return: “It’s unusual for you to come back so early today.”

“You signed someone capable, with high efficiency, so of course, I returned quickly.” Strangely enough, maybe because things had been clarified, the initial awkwardness between Lu Weixi and Qin Zhigu was gone when they met, and it was a lot easier for them now.

This easy banter, although reminiscent of the atmosphere when they used to date, was perhaps even more comfortable than before.

“Have you had dinner?”

Lu Weixi shook her head. She was supposed to have dinner with a private investigator, but it was clear that neither of them was focused on eating, and they merely picked at the food symbolically. She wasn’t feeling hungry, but maybe it was seeing Qin Zhigu,

“I thought so, dinner is almost ready at home.”

As they were talking, Qin Zhigu received a message. He checked his phone; it was from Paul. Normally, if Lu Weixi continued working, this problem would have been brought directly to her instead of first going to Qin Zhigu and then him relaying it to Lu Weixi.

Since the first day Qin Zhigu returned, he had already told Paul she was his sister-in-law. It was Qin Zhigu’s attitude on this that eased Lu Weixi’s concerns, allowing her to feel that there was no past entanglement between them during work.

“Hang on. He says there seems to be a problem with this approach.”

“Oh, really? Where?” The moment was opportune, as Lu Weixi happened to have her laptop with her, so she promptly took it out to look together.

Anyway, when Cai Yiren came downstairs, she saw the two of them sitting together.
