Chapter 1050: eting Like This Was So Awkward
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qin Qing imdiately caught sight of Lin Che. His eyes instinctively brightened.
Lin Che was as slender as always. Despite her pregnancy, her figure did not appear bloated. Her youthful face had a hint of a smile on it, yet she was different from that naive and innocent young girl she used to be. Right now, she looked gentle and elegant. Her comportnt had a noble air to it. To others, she was like a white pearl in the water, shining gently yet appearing extrely imposing.
She did not look as careless as she had in the past, either. Although she walked in a very lively manner, she had a lofty air about her. She did not seem at all inferior to others.
Even though she did not behave arrogantly at all, the arrogance was already in her bones. This was because she was now full of confidence and full of love. She did not lack attention and no longer desired attention and love from other people. She was simply so carefree and did as she wished. She no longer had to tiptoe around others.
On the contrary, this made her seem like a rare orchid blooming in the valley, with a beautiful and quiet air lingering about her. One could imdiately see her from afar.
Lin Che was in a long dress with a shawl around her shoulders and covering her belly. Beside her, Yu Minmin was dressed even more casually. As her belly was too big, she staggered sideways a little as she walked.
Lin Che held Yu Minmin to support her. The mont she looked up, she saw Xue ngqi across them. However, when she squinted her eyes, she noticed that the person standing beside Xue ngqi was...
Unexpectedly, Qin Qing.
By this ti, Xue ngqi had already made her way over to them. She imdiately smiled cheerfully and said to Lin Che, “First Sister-In-Law, Second Sister-In-Law, you’re here.”
Lin Che’s eyes were still fixed on Qin Qing.
Qin Qing was a little different than he had been in the past. He was still handso, but his expression was much gloomier, and he looked much more mature. The frosty expression on his face was paired with a faint deanor befitting of a company president.
But he still seed like Qin Qing.
Xue ngqi imdiately hooked her arm through Qin Qing’s and said, “Let introduce soone to you. This is my boyfriend, Qin Qing. Qin Qing, co and greet them. Call them Sisters-In-Law.”
Qin Qing’s eyes paused. He looked at the two of them and said, “Nice to et you, Sisters-In-Law.”
Lin Che felt even more strongly that she had terrible luck. Hearing Qin Qing call her sister-in-law... felt strange for so reason.
But as she looked at Qin Qing, it seed that he did not want Lin Che to reveal the relationship between the two of them. Lin Che’s eyes twitched. She was not as foolish as she had been in the past. Naturally, she knew how to read body language, so she went along with him and smiled, saying, “Nice to et you.”
Qin Qing stretched his hand out for a handshake. He behaved in a very gentlemanly manner.
Lin Che shook his hand simply.
Xue ngqi had a smile on her face. She looked at Qin Qing very delightfully. At a glance, Lin Che felt that she seed to love Qin Qing truly.
Lin Che blinked dumbly and did not speak any further. She rely looked at the couple, feeling a little uneasy for a mont.
Qin Qing stood there looking like the epito of a gentleman. Beside him, Xue ngqi said, “Qin Qing, our house is so big. Let give you a tour. Let’s not disturb the two sisters-in-law. It’s important for them to maintain their health for the babies. They can’t walk about too much.”
Lin Che looked at the two of them. “Go ahead and enjoy yourselves. No need to pay us any mind.”
Xue ngqi smiled. She left with Qin Qing’s arm around hers extrely intimately.
After watching the two of them leave, Yu Minmin looked at Lin Che and asked, “What the hell is this?”
She had nearly been unable to contain herself earlier. Seeing that the legendary boyfriend of Xue ngqi who would be brought here today was actually Qin Qing, wasn’t that Lin Che’s classmate in the past, Lin Li’s fiance?
Lin Che said, “I’m not sure either... but it seems that Qin Qing probably doesn’t want Xue ngqi to find out about our relationship either.”
Yu Minmin said in disbelief, “I really feel as if I’m about to go blind. But Xue ngqi is quite impressive. She even managed to seduce such a young man.”
Lin Che rely sighed and said, “I haven’t contacted Qin Qing for a very long ti. I only saw him out and about for abit a while ago. I don’t know how he’s doing right now, either.”
Yu Minmin said, “He’s probably doing pretty well right now. The Qin family is developing very rapidly. He has been terd the rising star recently. He appears on television and is ntioned on television from ti to ti for no reason. Many people find him handso and capable. He, along with three other pretty impressive n, are known as the Four Young Masters of the Capital City. They are very well-regarded. There are nurous fangirls, all waiting in line to sleep with him.”
So such a thing was actually happening.
“What’s more.” Yu Minmin continued, “you’ve probably never visited his Weibo page. Whatever he posts on Weibo there will be a few thousand comnts under it. He’s not a celebrity, but he’s more popular than one because many netizens these days also like young, handso n in the finance industry.”
Alright then. The world was truly changing too quickly. In her mont of inattention, Qin Qing had already gained a nickna of his own.
Yu Minmin was taken care of extrely well. She rested there while drinking sothing. There were many people inside. From a distance, Lin Che saw Qin Qing being praised highly by others. It seed that everyone was very satisfied with him.
Just then, Gu Jingze called.
Every night, he would call just before bedti and the two of them would chat for a bit.
He probably called much earlier today because he knew that she was going to the old Gu residence.
Lin Che picked up the call. “Aren’t you busy today?”
Gu Jingze said, “Hn. I’m not very busy.”
But Lin Che could hear him on the other end of the line still typing away.
Her heart ached for a mont. She felt that he had it very tough.
Furthermore, despite being so busy, he still had to take into consideration her schedule and call her every day. He even rembered clearly every single thing she did. He knew that she was returning to the old residence today and specially called at this ti again.
Lin Che said, “If you’re busy, you can ignore first.”
“I’m not busy. I’m just looking at so docunts. You went ho, right?”
“Yes.”
“Did Xue ngqi go back there today?”
“Yes. So they told you everything,” Lin Che said.
Gu Jingze humd in affirmation and stopped typing. It seed that he had leaned backward.
Lin Che said, “I only found out today that the Xue ngqi’s boyfriend is Qin Qing. Did you know that?”
“Oh. Soone told before,” Gu Jingze said.
One quality of Gu Jingze’s, which Lin Che admired imnsely, was that he seed to have an ability to plan strategies for everything. No matter the ti, everything seed to be in the palm of his hand. Thus, she did not have to say anything for him to know.
“She even specially brought him to the Gu residence. It was seriously awkward when we bumped into them,” Lin Che said.
Gu Jingze said, “It’s because she wants to prove that she has the capability to vie for the position of mistress.”
“Vie? Am I not her only competitor?”
“Of course not. The clan is split into factions too. Her faction is the third faction in the external clan. Her father’s side of the family, the Xues, lead this faction. They conduct business dealings overseas. Apart from her, there’s another faction that does not like competing – the first faction. That’s the most stable family and poses no threat to her. The internal clan has a faction, the second faction, that always opposes her for the purpose of snatching away the position of mistress. However, their ability to compete pales a little in comparison to Xue ngqi’s. Because they’re from the internal clan, to begin with, the clan fears that the power of the inner clan will increase if they vie for the position, which will be detrintal to the entire clan. Thus, they usually wouldn’t want them to obtain the position of mistress.”
