C2 Brother-in-law You Weren't like This Before
She held her forehead and felt the pain of an explosion. The sweat on her forehead had long been blown dry by the cold air from the air conditioner, and at this moment, her nose was somewhat inventilated.
She frowned and thought, It can't be that I failed to live up to my expectations and caught a cold, right?
If Xi Muyao saw it, he would have to listen to him nag again. She didn't want to care about those things that didn't belong to her anymore.
She felt that it was really enough.
After today and the end of summer, the old man was in a good mood. Otherwise, she would have told him the truth.
Sure enough, after hanging up the phone, Lu Qinghuan arrogantly pressed the doorbell in less than half an hour.
Qingli was just about to turn around when she saw that the housekeeper Mrs Lau had already walked to the door and hurriedly opened the door.
The Lu Qinghuan in front of her, after not seeing her for a year, had actually become more and more charming and moving. It was just that the sharpness between her brows did not change at all, it was exactly the same as Old Master Lu's.
Mrs Lau and Qing Huan asked each other for warmth. Qing Huan took out a fur coat from her suitcase. The wrinkles on Mrs Lau's face became even deeper.
It was not until Qingli could not hold back her laughter and coughed lightly that Qing Huan seemed to come back to her senses. She quickly ran over and hugged her.
"Sister, you are even more beautiful!"
Although Qing Huan was used to being arrogant, when she spoke, she spoke in Wu NIngwen's soft language. When she wasn't angry, she was really like a kitten.
"Stinking girl, you still remember your sister! Hurry up and go upstairs. The old man is anxious. If you don't show up soon, you'll get angry again."
"Okay, got it. Will he really miss me?"
After saying that, Qing Huan curled her lips and walked towards the stairs.
Back then, when she was determined to marry that Jiangnan scholar... The old man had really gotten angry quite a few times. He was just short of severing his relationship with her. However, Qing Huan had always been favoured at home, even if she didn't give in at all. In the end, the old man actually compromised.
Sometimes, Qingli could not help but think that if she did not follow his wishes back then and married the man that she had her own thoughts on, would the outcome not be like now?
Seeing Qing Huan, the old man's face swept away the previous gloominess. Although he did not say anything on the surface, from his eyes, Qingli could see that this birthday of his was happier than every year in the past.
The lunch was held in the biggest clubhouse in the city. Xi Muyao was busy entertaining the guests. Qingli also smiled until her facial muscles were somewhat stiff.
During the meal, Qing Huan looked around the huge table and suddenly screamed, "Brother-in-law! Where is my osmanthus cake? Didn't my sister tell you?"
Xi Muyao was slightly stunned. He immediately raised his head and quickly swept a glance at Qingli. Qingli was lowering her head and digging and pulling on the plate in boredom when her attention was suddenly interrupted. Her gaze was somewhat helpless.
Just as he was about to explain, he heard Xi Muyao lightly open his mouth. " Oh, I'm really too busy today. Tomorrow, brother-in-law will buy it for you tomorrow, okay? Oh, I'm really too busy today. Tomorrow, brother-in-law will buy it for you tomorrow, okay?"
"You weren't like this in the past. Every time you came to my house, you would bring it for me. Why is it that once you get my sister, you don't even take me, your sister-in-law, seriously?"
Qing Huan pouted, and the others on the table laughed when they saw her.
Someone complimented Lu Jinghao. "Mayor Lu, your third young lady is really beautiful. She has such a good mouth!"
When Lu Jinghao heard that, he hurriedly waved his hand. "No, you've spoiled her since she was young. Don't laugh at her!"
Although he said that, his eyes were full of smiles.
