C5 Family Dinner

The Meng Clan had an unwritten rule.

Every Friday night was a family reunion day for the Meng family, and no one was allowed to miss it.

Ji Xinqing came to the kitchen to help the housekeeper.

She called Meng Qinyue to remind him that it was family reunion day.

Meng Qinyue was obviously still angry at her. He coldly left a "got it" and hung up the phone.

Ji Xinqing didn't even have a chance to apologize.

Noon, Ji Xinqing's appetite ran out when she saw the empty seat beside her.

Meng Qinyue returned at around 2 PM in the afternoon, exhausted.

The afternoon sun was good.

Ji Xinqing was in the courtyard accompanying Meng Lanshan.

When he got out of the car, Meng Qinyue saw Ji Xinqing. His expression immediately darkened.

However, he still walked up to Meng Lanshan with a sullen expression and rubbed her head. He said with a tone of love, "Lanshan, be a good girl."

Meng Lanshan only raised her head and glanced at him once before lowering her head once again.

"Qin Yue, I —" Ji Xinqing whispered.

Meng Qinyue, on the other hand, lifted his leg and left.

Ji Xinqing quickly entrusted Meng Lanshan to the butler and quickly followed.

The two of them entered the bedroom one after the other.

Ji Xinqing closed the door, walked over to Meng Qinyue, and tugged at his sleeve. "Qin Yue, are you still mad at me?"

Meng Qinyue shook her off with a cold voice, "I've been busy since last night. I'm very tired, so I'll go take a bath first."

Without waiting for Ji Xinqing to say anything else, he took off his jacket and went into the bathroom.

The bathroom door closed and the sound of running water could be heard.

Ji Xinqing stood helplessly outside the door, but her eyes were slightly sore.

After a long time, she finally picked up Meng Qinyue's jacket and prepared to take it to wash.

However, the moment she touched the jacket, Ji Xinqing smelled a faint fragrance of perfume.

She knew Meng Qinyue, he never liked spraying perfume.

Then this perfume is...

Ji Xinqing lowered her head to smell it again.

Ji Xinqing recognized the faint aroma.

She had recently visited a perfume shop, which the clerk had highly recommended.

It was one that many women liked right now.

Ji Xinqing's face began to turn pale. She clutched at her clothes and glanced at the man bathing in the bathroom.

However, in the end, she still pursed her lips, didn't ask anything, and just took the clothes and left the bedroom.

When Ji Xinqing returned to her room, she saw that Meng Qinyue had fallen asleep on the bed.

His face was haggard, looking like he was really exhausted last night.

Ji Xinqing tried her best to convince herself that he had been at work the night before, but the fragrance of the perfume lingered at the tip of her nose and couldn't be removed no matter how hard she tried.

Meng Qinyue only woke up in a daze when they had ordered dinner.

Ji Xinqing happened to return to her room at the same time. "Qin Yue, you're awake. Hurry and get down. Dad's back."

Meng Qinyue answered with a cold "En" and then followed her downstairs.

Meng Qingrong had already sat down.

"Dad."

"Dad."

Meng Qinyue and Ji Xinqing shouted at the same time.

Meng Qingrong replied faintly, "Sit down. Your mom and sister are still upstairs. Wait a bit more."

In the past, Ji Xinqing usually sat between Meng Qinyue and Meng Lanshan.

But this time, as if to avoid contact with Ji Xinqing, Meng Qinyue made Meng Lanshan sit in the middle.

Ji Xinqing didn't want to escalate the conflict and sat down quietly.

After a while, Wang Jianfen and Meng Qinyu came downstairs.

Meng Qinyu sat beside Ji Xinqing and smiled. "Eldest Sister-in-law, did you take my suggestion from last night to heart?"

Ji Xinqing's expression turned ugly. Meng Qinyu was referring to the matter of having her have another child.

Meng Qinyu continued, "Sister-in-law, I am doing this for your own good. After all," she glanced at Meng Qinggrong, "This old Meng family has been waiting for you and your brother to pass on your legacy. You can't let them die in your generation, can you?"

Meng Qinyue's impotence was kept from everyone in the Meng Family.

Ji Xinqing suddenly didn't know how to respond to Meng Qinyu's words.

After a moment of silence, she changed the subject, "Butler, have the dishes been served yet?"

The butler answered from the side, "There's also a bowl of soup. It's boiling in the pot right now."

Seeing that Ji Xinqing had so easily forgotten about the matter with the child, Meng Qinyu felt a little annoyed. She turned to Wang Jianfen and said coquettishly, "Mom, look at how Eldest Sister-in-Law treats me!" What I said was clearly the truth, but she actually ignored me. "

Ji Xinqing suddenly felt that it was funny.

Then what should she say?

Could it be that it wasn't her fault at all, but Meng Qinyue never touched her?

She believed that if this news got out, the Meng family's career would definitely suffer a blow.

Seeing Ji Xinqing remain silent, Wang Jianfen was angered.

After comforting Meng Qinyu a little bit, he said in a weird tone, "Qin Yu, these people have been married to Old Meng for almost six years, let's just forget about eating and eating. It's not easy to give birth to a baby, but they're actually mute!"

Meng Qinyu nodded and sneered again. "Sister-in-law, it can't be that this Lanshan still hasn't said 'Mom' to you, right?"

This matter was the pain that had been stuck in Ji Xinqing's heart for the past three years.

Listening to the mocking words beside her ear, she turned around and looked at Meng Qinyue, hoping that he would say something to defend her.

However, Meng Qinyue kept his head down as he played with his phone. Even though he felt her gaze on him, he didn't say a word.

Ji Xinqing looked at his cold reaction. She had been married for six years and felt a chill in her heart for the first time.

Fortunately, Ji Xinqing's father-in-law, Meng Qinggrong, was on her side.

"Alright, this matter isn't Xinqing's fault alone." Meng Qingrong opened his mouth in annoyance.

Meng Qinggrong was the head of the family, so Wang Jianfen didn't dare to be impudent when he spoke.

Meng Qingrong glanced at Meng Qinyue, who was playing with his cell phone, and said in a more serious tone, "Lili, you're also in the wrong. It's not a one-man affair to have children."

Meng Qinyue was extremely afraid of Meng Qingrong. He quickly put away his phone and smiled, "Got it, Dad. I will work hard with Xinqing."

He smiled gently at Ji Xinqing from behind Lili. "We'll do our best, won't we, Xinqing?"

The smile in his eyes was warning.

He was warning her not to talk about impotence.

Ji Xinqing stayed silent for a long time before she smiled and looked at Meng Qingrong, "That's right dad, you have to believe us."

Meng Qingrong smiled after hearing her guarantee. However, he then looked at Meng Lanshan with a pained expression, "Xinqing, then this child —"

Ji Xinqing patted Meng Lanshan's head and said confidently, "Dad, don't worry. Qin Yue and I will not give up on her."

"Hai." Meng Qingrong sighed, "Xinqing, you should plan ahead on the second child."

Ji Xinqing's expression was unnatural for a moment.

No matter how much Meng Qingrong tried to protect himself, he was still a member of the Meng Clan. In his eyes, what he valued was only the descendants of the Meng Clan.

She looked down. "Got it, Dad."
