Translator: 549690339
In America, having several girlfriends is really nothing. Others might already have several exes in their middle school. But she also heard a rumor, it was said that Qin Zhigu “couldn’t do it,” he never touched those girlfriends, so they broke up quickly.
But only she knew that the reason Qin Zhigu didn’t want to touch those people was because none of them were Lu Weixi, herself included.
Later, he simply used an international research trip as an excuse, and once he left, it lasted for several months. Carrying a backpack to travel around the world, he didn’t want to meet anyone.
After Qin Zhigu left for abroad, she waited in vain and had to go back to Australia. She was not the biological daughter of Bai Changyou, despite exercising every caution and constantly pampering him. With her mother constantly speaking in her favor and her work gradually moving up to second-in-command.
But she knew that the most important person in Bai Changyou’s heart was always his real daughter.
If Cai’s mother wasn’t heavily pregnant with his long-awaited son back then, he probably wouldn’t have divorced so easily with Lu’s mother and married her own mother.
However, it didn’t matter now, her brother Bai Weiyi was already five years old, and the Bai Family’s property would belong to him in the future, which meant they would be the Cai Family’s. As for Lu Weixi, her mother was already ill and had long lost touch with Bai Changyou. Wei Hui was not happy after marrying Qin Zhiyou nor was she well regarded. Qin Zhiyou was always philandering with women and now his show of affection seemed pretentious.
She stole a glance and saw Lu Weixi still beautiful. She was always the center of attention from a young age, born in a good family, beautiful and intelligent, pursued by countless boys.
But what’s the point of that? Her love life was in shambles, her marriage was unhappy, even her father had left her. Her life was probably worse than hers.
When it came to the three of them, only Boss Liao was casually making small talk. Qin Zhiyou also ignored that couple, selectively with Boss Liao. Once the food was served, Lu Weixi remained composed. She was eating elegantly, not paying any attention to the two.
It was Boss Liao, who in an effort to break the awkwardness, spoke about his connection with Qin Zhigu: “I am building this new building, and I was not aware that Simon White was Qin Zhigu’s brother. If I had known, it would probably have been easier for me to reach Qin.”
Qin Zhiyou gave a faint smile, his ringed finger lying on the table, bending and lightly tapping. After a while, he raised his head and spoke lightly, “So, the interior design was also handed over to Zhigu?”
With that sentence, it drew the attention of everyone at the table.
Although Cai Yiren came over in hopes of seeing Qin Zhigu, she’d also intended to secure the contract for the interior design of Boss Liao’s new building. She and Lu Weixi were in the same field, and she replaced the position Lu Weixi could have held in Bai’s company and took over the direction of interior design.
The current investment environment in Australia is not good. Bai Changyou does have plans to return home to expand. But his business doesn’t allow for him to leave, he sent Cai Yiren first to test the waters. Once she is successful, he would return. Naturally, she was determined to land Boss Liao’s project.
As a person, Qin Zhigu was kind and warm. Even though they broke up with Lu Weixi due to a misunderstanding back then, he didn’t blame Cai Yiren. He still believed that he was at fault. His foolishness and misunderstanding clouded his judgement, refusing to believe Lu Weixi’s words, and it led to a lifetime of regret..
