C8

After Li Muqing left the VICI, she was very close to the one hour time limit that Qin Yu had given him.

Without any clothes that Lin Xi could wear, VICI went to another shop that she frequented and randomly chose a moderate quality dress.

She didn't use the black card that Qin Yu gave her, but used her newly earned commission.

Although one hundred and twenty thousand was nothing to her before, it was only enough for her to buy a bag. However, this time was different from the past. She was saving some energy, so she could still hold out for a while.

Lin Xi changed into a new skirt and went to the cafe to report to Qin Yu.

Just as Qin Yu finished his second cup of coffee, he caught a glimpse of Lin Xi coming over. Without raising his head, he said, "Not bad, take my card to my shop and buy something.

Lin Xi was slightly surprised, she did not expect him to find out about the commission so quickly.

But then, she thought about it again, Qin Yu was the CEO of VICI. She and Li Muqing had just met up at VICI's brand store, and someone probably had already told him about it.

"It can't compare to how Master Qin San manages such a big business. I'm just earning some pocket money for myself." Lin Xi said, and then handed over the black card that Qin Yu had given her. "Since others have soft hands, I prefer to spend the money that I earn."

Only then did Qin Yu raise his head and look at her.

Lin Xi slightly raised her chin, her eyes proud and cunning. From the angle of the seat he was sitting on, she seemed to be in a trance with Lin Xi's shadow.

She was originally such a timid and weak person, but in just a short month, she seemed to have been reborn. Her temperament had changed drastically, and she had become smart and independent.

It just happened to be the appearance that Qin Yu liked.

But exactly because it was too perfect, and seemed to be done deliberately, Qin Yu could not help but suspect the reason behind her sudden change.

To attract him to the Mrs. Qin, or to be ordered to kill him?

For Qin Yu to be able to become the head of the Qin family, the number of people who openly and secretly hoped that something would happen to him was not small.

At this thought, his face suddenly became cold. He retracted his gaze and impatiently said, "We should set off now."

When she got up, he did not even look at the bank card in front of him, so Lin Xi put it away.

She was very close to Qin Yu, and could easily sense the sudden low pressure from his body, as well as the faint disgust she felt towards her. She felt baffled, but the thought that she would have to ask more of him later made her swallow her annoyance and follow him out of the café.

Qin Yu drove very fast. When the two arrived at the airport, the plane that Old Madem Qin was on had landed.

Not long after Lin Xi left the entrance, a fashionable dressed lady with a shawl over her shoulders walked towards her and Qin Yu.

Qin Yu stepped forward and called out for his granny, which Lin Xi quickly followed.

Old Madem Qin's hair was a little gray at the temples, but it was well maintained. At first glance, it was hard for people to guess her age.

Lin Xi had thought that the person who would be able to educate Qin Yu would be a shrewd and strict old lady. But surprisingly, the Old Madem Qin in front of him was gentle and kind.

"You're Little Xi, right?" Old Madem Qin looked towards Lin Xi. Her voice was just like her temperament, warm and gentle, causing others to unconsciously let their guard down.

Lin Xi quickly glanced at Qin Yu, and under his gaze, she cutely nodded her head and greeted him.

"Good, good, good!" When Old Madem Qin heard her grandma, she could not help but burst out laughing, "She looks so pretty, so compatible with Qin Yu."

Lin Xi did not forget that she came here today to pretend to be in love with Qin Yu. She intentionally gave Qin Yu a deep look, then lowered her head and shyly smiled.

Her life was just like a play. If she practiced her acting like this every day, she should be able to take on the role of a film empress very soon.

Qin Yu took the opportunity and hugged her waist. Lin Xi reflexively wanted to shake him off, but thinking that this was an act, he once again muttered "professional literacy", and forcefully held it in.

Qin Yu received Old Madem Qin's salute with his other hand and said, "Grandmother has just got off the plane. She must be tired as well. It's almost noon, so I got my assistant to reserve a health restaurant. Let's go eat first. "

The airport was crowded and it was not a good place to chat, so Old Madem Qin nodded.

Only then did Qin Yu let go of Lin Xi, and the three of them went to the Life Restaurant together.

The Old Madem Qin liked Lin Xi a lot, and kept asking questions while holding her hand along the way. Fortunately, Lin Xi had Bai Nianxi's memories and didn't make any mistakes while chatting with the old lady.

The old lady was amiable. After chatting for a while, when they arrived at the restaurant, Lin Xi had already gotten closer to her.

While waiting for the food, the old lady suddenly asked Lin Xi: "During the time you've been in City Z, did Qin Yu take good care of you?"

When Bai Nianxi first came to City Z, she did not live a good life. Qin Yu did not care about her, and thus, she was bullied by Li Muqing a lot. But today, Lin Xi wanted to show his love to Qin Yu, so these things couldn't be said in front of the madame.

Therefore, Lin Xi rolled her eyes and started to tell lies: "Qin Yu has always been taking good care of me, he will peel my prawns for me and make my bed. He likes to give me money every day, he is very gentle."

"That's good," the Old Madem Qin said. "Although Qin Yu's personality is cold, he is actually very friendly. I heard that you came to Z City, so I was afraid that you two weren't getting along well.

As she said this, she sighed. It was unknown what she was thinking about as her expression slowly became dejected.

At this time, Qin Yu who had been silent all this time suddenly reached out and pulled Lin Xi into her embrace, "Grandmother, don't worry, Xiao Xi and I are very fond of each other."

Different from when he hugged her waist at the airport, maybe because he was anxious to prove their relationship to the old lady, Qin Yu hugged her tightly this time.

Lin Xi's entire person was held tightly in his embrace, her cheek was pressed against his chest, the faint smell of cologne lingered at the tip of her nose, and one could still hear his steady and forceful heartbeat sounds beside her ears.

Because it was summer now, and the clothes on both of their bodies were very thin, Qin Yu's body temperature passed through the cloth and onto Lin Xi's face. It was clearly the same temperature as his, but it made her cheeks turn red.

Lin Xi wanted to struggle free, but she was hugged even tighter by Qin Yu.

"Don't move! Don't forget what you promised me. " Qin Yu warned Lin Xi softly in her ear.

His voice was suppressed very low and he was purposely lowering his head to whisper into Lin Xi's ear, so the Old Madem Qin opposing him didn't detect anything amiss. From her point of view, she could only see her own grandson's gentle face and Lin Xi's bashful expression in his arms.

It seemed that their relationship was really quite good.

Only then did Old Madem Qin become happy again. She changed the topic of the conversation and said: "Since you're so loving, why don't we settle the marriage earlier?"

Qin Yu's grip on Lin Xi stiffened, and she took the opportunity to struggle free from his embrace, then said: "Grandmother, we aren't in a hurry."

However, the old lady shook her head in disapproval. "Qin Yu is not young anymore, it's about time for us to get married."

Lin Xi's head spun very quickly, and he said, "Grandmother, as the saying goes, marriage is the grave of love. Qin Yu and I want to date for a few more years, then talk about marriage. "

In fact, as far as she was concerned, marriage was not only the tomb of love, but it had also taken her life and turned her into a tomb.

Old Madem Qin still wanted to say something, but Qin Yu interrupted her in a timely manner: "Grandmother, Xiao Xi has just graduated from university, her life has just started, and it's quite exciting right now. It's still too early for her to experience marriage, and it's better to not bring up the matter of marriage again after two years."

The old mistress looked slightly dissatisfied, but she eventually gave in and sighed.

"Grandmother is getting old, and won't be able to keep you company for long. She only hopes that you two can get married soon and help each other out." "But you youngsters have your own ideas, and your grandma won't force you, but there's only one thing you can't forget …" The old lady looked at Qin Yu and said, "If it wasn't for Grandfather Little Xi, you wouldn't be here today, so you definitely wouldn't have let her down."

"I will." Qin Yu promised, and held the madame's hand in a comforting manner.

Lin Xi couldn't help but roll her eyes inside her heart. The real Bai Nianxi had long since died, and the person she could not disappoint had long passed away.

Maybe because she had inherited Bai Nianxi's memories, Lin Xi suddenly had a trace of complaint towards Qin Yu. If he had helped the real Bai Nianxi out earlier, she might not have died.

Just then, the waiter brought in the food. The matter of the forced marriage was temporarily fooled and Lin Xi and Qin Yu began to accompany the Countess to eat lunch.

During the meal, Old Madem Qin was still very warm to Lin Xi. She picked up a prawn and placed it into Lin Xi's bowl, saying, "Little Xixi, try this steamed prawn, it tastes pretty good."

"Thank you, Grandma." Lin Xi smiled as she thanked her, but she found it difficult to look at the prawns in front of him.

Actually, she didn't like to eat seafood like shrimp and crab, because she wasn't good at shelling. She would rather eat them than make a move.

However, the prawn on the plate was given to her by Old Madem Qin, it would be too rude if she did not eat it.

Lin Xi sneaked a peek at Qin Yu and intentionally cleared his throat: "Aiya, this prawn smells really good, if only I don't peel it it it would be even better."

"Qin Yu has always taken good care of me. He will help me peel the prawns for dinner and make the bed for me when I sleep, and he likes to give me money every day if he has nothing better to do. He is very gentle."

He is very gentle. He will help me peel shrimp for dinner...

Qin Yu stopped eating and under the gaze of the Old Mistress, he consciously picked up the prawns from Lin Xi's bowl and started peeling them off for her.

Seeing that this trick was effective, Lin Xi pinched her throat and said coquettishly, "Today's crabs look quite fresh. I have never even seen such large crabs in my hometown … "Sesame fish aren't bad, but they have a lot of spines …"

Qin Yu could do whatever he wanted. Every time Lin Xi brought up a piece of food, he would do it himself. He peeled off the shell and picked the fish bone, showing no signs of impatience.

The Old Madem Qin nodded in satisfaction.

However, Lin Xi remembered his attitude towards her back in the market this morning and she did not plan to let him go so easily. Instead, she pointed to the oysters in the distance and said, "There's also that …"

But halfway through her words, the remaining words were blocked off by Qin Yu's lips.

Qin Yu actually forcefully kissed her!

"You'll get gout if you eat too much seafood. You'll also need to eat more vegetables." After successfully silencing Lin Xi, Qin Yu released her lips and pushed a plate of vegetable salad in front of her.

Lin Xi was caught off guard by his kiss, and her entire person seemed to be in a daze. By the time she reacted, she was already stuffing vegetable salad into her mouth.

Her ears instantly turned red.

As she crunched on the vegetables in her mouth, she secretly despised herself for being too disappointing. Because of that kiss, she had been at a disadvantage.

She should have kissed him back then!

Right now, it was as though she had been taken advantage of, although from their external appearances, the one who had taken advantage of them seemed to be herself …

Lin Xi glared at Qin Yu fiercely.

She was clearly someone who wiped her hands twice after touching her yesterday, but today, after kissing her, she could still smile?

It seemed like Master Qin San's acting wasn't bad either.

Due to the Old Madem Qin being present, no matter how dissatisfied Lin Xi was, there was nothing she could do. She could only treat the salad in the bowl as Qin Yu and continue to chew.

However, Old Madem Qin only saw her shyly.

The old mistress could not help smiling as she watched the two of them interact.

Young people these days were truly passionate. They couldn't help but hug and kiss each other even while they were eating. It seemed that they really loved each other.

Old Madem Qin was happy, she even ate half a bowl more rice than usual.
