"Who are you looking for?" Rong Yan looked at the unfamiliar man at the doorway. However, his facial features seed... strangely familiar.
Ming Xi’s eyes flashed with astonishnt very quickly before he sincerely said, "Hello, I’m Ming Xi, the younger brother of Ming Liping. I’m here to apologize on her behalf."
Rong Yan looked at him... No wonder he seed familiar! It turned out he was Ming Liping’s brother.
Not to ntion, Ming Liping’s brother was quite handso.
Like modern-day eye candy.
"Apologize? How exactly?" Her voice carried a hint of nonchalance.
Ming Xi moved forward the items he had brought.
"This is an apology gift, no matter what, it was Ming Liping’s fault..."
He hadn’t finished speaking when Rong Yan interrupted him, "So you admit that she deliberately sent that potted plant over? If you don’t think so, then you might as well not speak at all because it lacks sincerity and is aningless. Whatever you say is just nonsense."
That was certainly not polite at all.
The people Ming Xi had encountered... especially won, none had ever spoken so impolitely, at least not outwardly.
"She didn’t do it on purpose..."
Rong Yan snorted and then directly closed the door, not giving him another chance to speak.
Ming Xi: ...
He stared at the door for a while, then placed the items he had brought next to the door, preparing to leave.
Just as he turned to leave, he almost bumped into a man, from whose sharp gaze,
he guessed who this man was.
"Qin Ye! Hello, I’m Ming Xi."
Qin Ye had no interest in exchanging pleasantries.
Pointing at the stuff by the door, he said, "Please do not leave your trash at my doorstep."
Ming Xi: "...Qin Ye, you’ve misunderstood, this is an apology gift..."
"Pick it up, get out," Qin Ye’s expression was stern.
Ming Xi didn’t move but t Qin Ye’s gaze, "Qin Ye, how about we find a place to talk?"
Qin Ye still wore a frosty expression, "If you don’t want your dad to be accused of another cri, then leave now... And I don’t want to see the Ming Family bothering us or my family again."
Ming Xi: ...
Was he being threatened?
Qin Ye said what he needed and no longer paid him any attention, raising his hand to knock on the door.
Rong Yan ca to open the door again, originally thinking it was still that person who hadn’t left, but it was Qin Ye returning.
However, her gaze briefly noticed the person who hadn’t left, then indifferently she looked away.
Qin Ye walked straight in, closing the door behind him.
Rong Yan noticed the two big bags he was carrying, "What did you buy carrying so much stuff?"
"So at and vegetables, along with so other things." Her parents-in-law must be busy these last few days.
Probably too busy to buy groceries.
As he was set to start working the day after tomorrow, he had bought more at and eggs, and not much in the way of vegetables since his wife had grown so in her space.
"Then put all this at in the fridge. By the way, did you do anything else this morning?" It shouldn’t take that long just to buy groceries.
"I handled a little sothing on the side," Qin Ye did not elaborate.
Rong Yan wasn’t one to pry further; she had just asked casually.
Even between spouses, they needed to give each other so space.
Neither ntioned the person outside the door.
To them, he was unimportant.
"Dear, what do you want for lunch?" Qin Ye started heading to the kitchen.
For soone who had only had an egg for breakfast, the thought of lunch couldn’t co fast enough, not that he had anything particular in mind.
"Either is fine, as long as it’s not too complicated." She didn’t mind, but mainly she had to consider Qin i, the underage girl.
Qin Ye nodded his understanding and then headed toward the kitchen.
It was clearly too early for lunch, so Qin Ye put the groceries away and then returned to the room where they were staying with another bag.
Rong Yan was not there; she was checking Qin i’s drawing howork.
He was surprised that the young girl had quite a knack for drawing.
Qin i was a bit nervous, fearing that her drawings were not good enough.
After a while, Rong Yan smiled and praised, "Not bad."
Hearing those words, Qin i’s eyes and brows lit up with a smile, revealing her shallow dimples as she grinned.
Rong Yan had a fondness for pleasing people and things.
After half a year of nurturing, Qin i had undergone a drastic transformation.
The Qin Family were all good-looking, and with a fuller face, Qin i was even prettier, so seeing her happy made Rong Yan feel much better too.
She had noticed that the young girl seldom smiled, but when she did, her smile was very healing.
"Co on, I’ll teach you how to draw basic lines now..."
Qin i’s eyes brightened, and she nodded eagerly, "Okay!"
When Qin Ye ca out of the room, he saw the harmonious interaction between the two.
The corners of his mouth curled up.
"Wife, I’m heading to the Qin Family."
Hearing this, Rong Yan rembered... they were originally supposed to have dinner with the Qin Family tonight, but since the old lady had passed away, that was definitely off.
"Okay, then go and inform Grandpa."
"Alright." Qin Ye nodded and walked outside.
Just as he opened the door, he saw Old Master Qin about to knock.
Qin Ye: "...I was just about to go to the Qin Family."
Old Master Qin: "You don’t need to go; I ca myself. Is everything okay with the in-laws?" Old Master Qin was always well-inford.
Qin Ye wasn’t surprised that he knew.
"They are fine." Qin Ye stepped aside, "Do you want to co in?"
Old Master Qin waved his hand, "No need, I just ca to check in. I’m leaving now."
The two hos were not far apart, and he was in good health, entirely capable of walking back and forth.
"As for dinner, we won’t be coming over," Qin Ye added.
Old Master Qin: "I know, that’s fine. We can talk about this when you co next ti. I’m leaving."
He turned to leave but suddenly rembered sothing and turned back.
"By the way, I think I saw that Ming Family boy coming over here. Was he looking for you?"
Qin Ye nodded, "Yes, but I’ve warned him."
"That boy is decent, it’s just his father and sister who are clueless. Forget it, I’ll make a trip to the Ming Family to stop them from coming over."
Qin Ye was indifferent to his praise of the boy being decent.
He wasn’t familiar with him.
Moreover, whether the Ming Family was good or bad... he had no fondness for them at all.
Watching Old Master Qin leave, Qin Ye then turned back around.
At that mont, Rong Yan had just finished teaching Qin i the basics and let her draw on her own.
Seeing Qin Ye, she asked, "Did Grandpa leave?"
She had heard the talking.
She had thought he would co in, so she didn’t go out.
Qin Ye nodded, "He left, he ca over because he heard about the old lady’s accident."
Rong Yan wasn’t surprised; she guessed it might have been Qi Yan who told him.
