Chapter 279: Meeting in Chunjiang Restaurant 4

Jiang Siliu was outsmarted at every turn. She turned her head hastily and said to Lu Yan, “Brother Lu, quick, say something.”

Qi Qingyao calmly shattered Jiang Siliu’s delusions. “He wouldn’t talk back to me without my orders. You… ugly little girl.”

Jiang Siliu almost stopped breathing. “You!!!!! Dare say I’m ugly!!”

Qi Qingyao shrugged and continued in a relaxed manner.

“From my perspective as a vixen widow, you’re ugly indeed. How pitiful! Unlike me, who is a natural beauty! A vixen who gets praised upon sight!”

“No one has ever called me ugly!” Jiang Siliu did not know whether it was grievance or anger, but her head had started to hurt a little.’

Qi Qingyao droned unhurriedly, “You’re ugly, you have to know yourself better! If you’re beautiful, other people would have also praised you for being a vixen, you poor child!”

Jiang Siliu suddenly broke down and turned around.

“Boo hoo~~~”

She ran off, taking her maid Yangtao with her.

The other onlookers on the second floor were so shocked they were rendered speechless.

The onlookers who were having meals in the great dining hall of the first floor were initially waiting for Jiang Siliu to teach Qi Qingyao a lesson but who would have thought that Jiang Siliu would be the one running down the stairs in tears…

This…

As it turned out, Jiang Siliu had been bullied to tears!

The servant started serving the food in silence. After the food was served, Lu Yan only snapped out of it and said to Qi Qingyao, “You made a little lady cry.”

“Didn’t I make you cry the other day as well?” Qi Qingyao countered with a big smile.

Lu Yan, “…”

He looked dejected and devastated…

Qi Qingyao continued rather relaxedly, “My face is as thick as the city’s walls! They still dared to chastise me even with my level. They overestimated themselves!”

Lu Yan took a deep breath and addressed the serious matter, “What you did just now was that you offended the Jiang family.”

“You won’t watch me die anytime soon, because I’m now your brother!” Qi Qingyao quickly cottoned on to him maddeningly, smiling passionately and affectionately.

‘Brother!

‘Who the hell is your brother!’

Lu Yan changed the subject by pointing to the ox-head masked man next to him.

“This… ox-head masked man has not said a word.” After a pause, he asked, “Is he mute?”

“He just doesn’t want to…” Qi Qingyao was about to say “he just doesn’t want to talk to you,” but the rest of the sentence did not leave her lips. She stayed there unmoving like a fossil.

Lu Yan pressed, “Doesn’t want to, what?”

Qi Qingyao snapped out of it and smiled slightly. “Nothing. He only likes to talk to me, he doesn’t like to talk to outsiders.”

Lu Yan responded with an ‘oh’.

After that, the dishes were served.

Qi Qingyao began eating by herself. Lu Yan was a little nervous and did not touch his chopsticks. Jiang Yeqian, who was next to him, could not eat as he was wearing a mask, so he did not touch his chopsticks either.

The scene had evolved into two people watching Qi Qingyao eat.

Qi Qingyao felt somewhat drab and ignored both of them completely. She asked Dong Jing to sit down and eat together as well, but Dong Jing did not dare to. He was pulled by Qi Qingyao to sit down, the two of them sitting side by side. Dong Jing felt very cramped. He was so nervous his whole body was numb.

Qi Qingyao poured him some wine and said, “Drink!”

Dong Jing immediately lowered his head. “I dare not.”

Qi Qingyao patted Dong Jing’s shoulders. “Drink up!”

Dong Jin felt cold sweat dripping. “I really dare not.”

Qi Qingyao was extremely disappointed. “The two people opposite you don’t want to eat. You’re the only ordinary person, but you don’t want to eat and drink with me either. Then, what’s the point of me coming to this restaurant to eat alone? I suspect that I’m being collectively hated on by you guys! Damn, I’ll never come out with you guys the next time, you killjoys!”

Dong Jing, “…”

Lu Yan suddenly said, “Dong Jing, eat.”

Dong Jing obeyed the order and immediately started lifting up the wine bowl.

Qi Qingyao smiled a little happily. She clinked glasses with Dong Jing and the two of them ate together.

In Jiang Yeqian and Lu Yan’s eyes, this scene looked… admirable.

One wanted to eat but could not eat.

The other wanted to eat but was not able to eat; even sitting together felt like a lot of effort!

Qi Qingyao dined very sloppily.

After the meal, without staying any longer, she told the rest of them, “Now that we’re done eating, let’s go back.”

She wiped her mouth and added, “I’m in a rush to go back to sew purses for the children.”

With that, she went down the stairs by herself. Jiang Yeqian quickly trailed behind her.

After Lu Yan went down the stairs, the servant stopped him and reminded him that he had not paid.

Lu Yan, “…” ‘Didn’t she say she was treating them!!’

Dong Jing quickly paid for the meal.

On the way back home, Jiang Yeqian noticed that she seemed to have become low-spirited.

He asked, “Are you worried about offending the Jiang family?”

“Yeah.”

Qi Qingyao replied casually.

After returning home…

Qi Qingyao feigned nonchalance and called Jiang Yeqian to send the fabric to the room. Si Jin was extremely happy.

“I thought you guys would stroll till nighttime before coming back.”

“Jiang Bai, go take care of the kids.”

Qi Qingyao ordered in a composed expression, “Si Jin, come over and help me thread a needle!!”

Si Jin said with a pitiful face, “Sister, I don’t know how to do embroidery”

“I never asked you to,” Qi Qingyao replied.

Jiang Yeqian cast a pitiful glance at Si Jin, then went off to take care of the children.

Suddenly, only Qi Qingyao and Si Jin were left in the room.

Qi Qingyao made Si Jin shut the door properly, then asked him, “Jiang Bai is not near this room, right?”

“No, I saw him go to the study with my own eyes. He was babysitting the children,” Si Jin answered.

Qi Qingyao was somewhat relieved.

She then took the sewing basket and sat on the arhat couch. Si Jin sat beside her and helped her spread the fabric. Qi Qingyao soon began cutting the cloth.

Si Jin added some charcoal into the brazier.

Qi Qingyao said as she cut the cloth, “Something happened today.”

“Mm,” Si Jin responded.

Qi Qingyao paused her hand and said, “Have you noticed that Jiang Bai has never spoken in front of Heir Pei?”

Si Jin cocked his head and said, “It seems…so.”

Qi Qingyao continued, “I found out today that he doesn’t speak in front of Lu Yan either.”

“Is that so?” He replied with slight confusion.

“…” Qi Qingyao nodded.

Si Jin asked, “Why?”

Qi Qingyao did not answer directly. She indirectly asked Si Jin, the naive fellow, “What do you think Heir Pei and Lu Yan have in common?”

‘Have in common, huh?’ “They’re both from Capital City!” Si Jin was still able to use his brain.

“That’s right.” Qi Qingyao raised her brows and smiled with a hint of interest. “They’re both from Capital City, huh.” She dragged out the last syllable, hinting at some deeper significance.

Si Jin asked, “What’s wrong with that?”

Qi Qingyao squinted her eyes. She curled her lips and smiled coldly. “Then, that means that the identity he gave is all fake.”

“…” Si Jin’s eyes widened.

Qi Qingyao said firmly, “He must be from Capital City. And should be someone that Heir Pei and Lu Yan know!”
