Qin Yiyi frowned and raised her hand to hold Mrs. Qin’s hand.

Her eyes were indifferent.

“Even though I call you ‘Mother’ doesn’t mean that you can do whatever you want to me, Mother.”

Qin Yiyi deliberately emphasized the word ‘mother’.

Mrs. Qin was furious. “You rebellious daughter. If you have the ability, don’t acknowledge me as your mother and don’t come back to the Qin family.”

Qin Yiyi sighed softly in her heart. She thought about it seriously and raised her head to look at her mother.

“Is what you said just now true? As long as I walk out of this house, you won’t acknowledge me as your daughter. The Qin family doesn’t have a daughter like me?”

“I...”

“What are you playing at? What do you mean the Qin family doesn’t have a daughter like you? Your surname is Qin.”

At this moment, Mr. Qin walked in with furrowed brows. After glaring at Mrs. Qin, he looked at Qin Yiyi with a deep and profound gaze. “Your surname is Qin. The blood of your mother and I flows in your body. You’re the daughter of the Qin family.”

Qin Yiyi nodded her head with an ‘oh’. However, she felt somewhat regretful in her heart.

She didn’t let Mrs. Qin say that she didn’t acknowledge her personally.

What a pity!

“Alright, you haven’t eaten yet. Let’s get someone to prepare the food.”

With Mr. Qin’s words, the maids in the house immediately started to move.

Not long after, dinner was served and the table was filled with food.

Mrs. Qin acted as if she didn’t see the rebellious daughter across from her. Her face was smiling like a flower as she showed concern for Qin Jiatong.

“Tongtong, eat more. This is for replenishing blood...”

“Aiyo, didn’t you get injured a while ago? The doctor said that you were discharged before you even recovered. Hurry up and drink more chicken soup...”

As she spoke, Mrs. Qin glanced at Qin Yiyi intentionally. Qin Yiyi found it funny,

Did she think that this would provoke or hurt Qin Yiyi?

However, Auntie Qin’s cooking skills were still as bad as ever!

She picked a few grains of rice casually and put down her chopsticks.

“I’m done eating. You guys continue.”

Qin Yiyi got up and prepared to go upstairs to get a few of her things before leaving.

“Don’t you have any manners? Your elders haven’t even finished eating yet and you’re just going to throw your chopsticks and leave like this? Is this how the teachers at school taught you?”

Auntie Qin snorted and looked at Qin Yiyi with a face full of anger.

Talk about upbringing with her?

Qin Yiyi lowered her eyes and chuckled. She lazily turned around.

Mrs. Qin thought that Qin Yiyi was scared by what she said just now, so she became even more proud in her heart, “I know that you are stupid and not as smart as your sister. You can’t even learn anything, and we don’t expect anything from you. However, you are the eldest daughter of the Qin family. If you can’t prevent something as simple as losing face for the Qin family outside, then you might as well stay at home and don’t go out.”

She thought that she had raised an idle person!

“Upbringing, huh...”

“I have a mother, but she never taught me. I have a father who never had the time to look after me. My mother even scolds me in front of my sister. Talk about upbringing...”

“My biological mother is already like this... What else can I do?”

Then, she smiled faintly at Mrs. Qin. “Why don’t you help me think of a way to deal with this upbringing problem?”

Mrs. Qin, “...”

Qin Yiyi then turned around and walked briskly upstairs.

Mrs. Qin sat on the chair and panted heavily. “Old Qin, Old Qin, look at her, look at her!”

“How does she look like a daughter at all?”

“Are you done? Why are you always causing trouble with a child?”

Mr. Qin frowned as he put down the chopsticks in his hand and glared at Mrs. Qin.

There was a trace of warning in his eyes.

Mrs. Qin was so angry that she almost smashed the bowl in her hand.

“Tongtong, what does your father mean by this? He actually gave me a hard time because of that girl!”

“Tongtong, look at your father. He has no conscience. Who am I doing this for? Isn’t it for the sake of this family? Back then...”

“Mom, Dad didn’t say anything. He just came back from a business trip and it was very hard for him. He definitely didn’t target you, Mom.”

After being persuaded by Qin Jiatong, Mrs. Qin’s expression softened. “Our Tongtong is still obedient and sensible. It doesn’t seem like... Forget it, forget it. Let’s not talk about that girl. Mom will help you buy a bag later. Also, it seems that a few beautiful dresses have been launched recently. Mom has been keeping an eye out for our Tongtong.”

She sized up Qin Jiatong a few times and a hint of a smile flashed across her eyes. “Our Tongtong is getting more and more beautiful. We must definitely hold the birthday banquet next month well and let everyone know that our princess is so beautiful and good-looking.”

“Mom!”

Qin Jiatong’s face was red like a tomato. “I will study hard and won’t let Dad and Mom down.”

“Be good.”

The sky outside had already turned dark.

Qin Yiyi came down with a few books in her hands. Ignoring the two of them in the living room, she lifted her feet and walked out.

“Stop.”

When Mrs. Qin saw how she acted as if there was no one else around, her heart was filled with anger.

She was her mother after all.

Was this how she treated her biological mother?

She slammed the table hard. “What are you holding in your hand? Let me take a look.”

“On Primary Families and the Impact of Parenting On the Upbringing of Their Children.”

Qin Yiyi moved the book closer to her. Her voice was crisp and her small face was solemn.

“Do you want to take a look?” If she really wanted to take a look, it wasn’t that she couldn’t lend it out for two days.

Moreover...

She raised her eyes and looked carefully at Mrs. Qin, giving her a very sincere suggestion.

“Actually, I think you should really read this book.”

She had just flipped through two pages and felt that some of the things in this book were quite well written!

Mrs. Qin was so angry that she snatched the book away and tore it into shreds before throwing it to the ground.

She even deliberately stepped on it a few times and pointed at Qin Yiyi. “Do you think that I, your mother, have mistreated you or that your father has wronged you? You ate our food and drank our wine. Now, your father and I have a feud, right? Fine, if you have the ability, then give it to me...”

Mrs. Qin suddenly thought of the last glance Qin Jiangnian gave her when he went upstairs!

“Scram! Don’t let me see you!”

Seeing Qin Yiyi turn around and walk out, Mrs. Qin clutched her chest in anger and cried out in pain.

She was so angry at this rebellious daughter!

What sin did she commit in her previous life? Digging up her family’s ancestral grave or killing her entire family? She had to be reincarnated in this life to be so angry at her!

As Qin Yiyi walked out of the Qin Residence, her imposing manner dissipated.

She walked aimlessly forward while pondering in her mind.

Why did Qin Jiangnian suddenly pick her up?

In her previous life, he didn’t have any major events or special needs to make use of her.

After that, she proposed to marry Lou Minghui on her own initiative...

However, judging from the results of her provocation to her mother several times tonight, her father’s attitude toward her was really meaningful.

‘Forget it, forget it. It’s a headache when I think about it. I’ll just let nature take its course.’

The Qin Residence was in the Villa District. It was located in the middle and the cars outside could not enter. If she wanted to hail a taxi, she would have to walk outside for more than ten minutes. She raised her head and looked at the road ahead. She gently rubbed the space between her eyebrows. How could she have forgotten about this?

Standing on the side of the road, Qin Yiyi was thinking about whether she should continue to walk forward or stay there when a car slowly stopped behind her. A man’s somewhat surprised voice could be heard. “Qin Yiyi?”

A gust of wind blew over under the night sky, and Qin Yiyi felt an inexplicable chill.

She raised her head and saw the face that was revealed by the semi-lowered car window under the flickering yellow lights. Her expression changed slightly as she turned around and left.

Behind her, Gu Yulin had an inexplicable expression on his face,

F*ck, she just looked like that little girl from the Qin family.

Why did she look like she had seen a ghost?

He touched his face and moved closer to the front mirror of the car to take a look.

He did not have a beard, nor did he have any scars. He still had that handsome face.

Yes, that girl must be blind!

He was a grown man who did not care about the past, and he would not stoop to the level of a doormat...

Gu Yulin, who had praised himself repeatedly in his heart, stepped on the accelerator and followed her once more. “Qin Yiyi, where are you going? I’ll send you. I’m in a good mood today and I do good deeds every day. Don’t worry, we’re neighbors after all. I’ve seen you born. Don’t worry, I don’t have any other intentions towards your sickly little body...”

He drove the car behind Qin Yiyi and didn’t stop.

In the end, Qin Yiyi stood still with a dark face and kicked the door of the car that had just stopped.

“Gu, can you stay away from me?”

She didn’t want to sit in the car of someone who was about to die!
