He rushed downstairs and circled around the building, but Lu Weixi was still nowhere to be found.
For a moment, Qin Zhiyou even considered calling the police. He was worried that something might have happened to Lu Weixi â why wasnât she there!
Just then, it was nearly time for dinner. While he was searching for Lu Weixi, the people from the second house were looking for Qin Zhigu.
Anxious to the point of madness, Qin Zhiyou was tempted to barge into Qin Zhiguâs house to check if Lu Weixi was hiding in there.
Just as he was growing more anxious, a maid came over: âI saw Young Madam running up the hill in her sports gear just now. The second young master seemed to have gone with her.â
Upon hearing the first sentence, Qin Zhiyouâs eyebrows furrowed. It was nearly night, and she was going for a run? When the second sentence came out, he got furious, not saying a word. Without grabbing an umbrella, he switched into a pair of leather shoes, still in his loungewear, and immediately rushed out.
The rain outside was heavy, but he couldnât care less as he ran up the hill.
As he was almost at the top of the hill, he saw from a distance two figures in a gazebo. He hurriedly ran over.
The moment he arrived, he saw Lu Weixi returning the phone to Qin Zhigu, and Qin Zhigu reaching out to accept it. From afar, it looked like they were holding hands and standing very close. Plus, Qin Zhigu seemed a little reluctant to let go. When Lu Weixi handed him the phone, he took a little longer to receive it.
Qin Zhiyou was filled with rage.
After Qin Zhigu returned home, he had indeed struggled with his feelings for Lu Weixi, yet that was only when the two were alone. With others around, heâd been suppressing his feelings and it was terribly difficult. However, Qin Zhiyou had been unaware that Qin Zhigu was still coveting his sister-in-law!
Originally wanting to apologize, explain, and cajole, upon seeing the scene with Qin Zhigu, Qin Zhiyou instantly flared up with anger!
Although the rain had let up a little, the sound of his running and splashing water alerted the two in the gazebo. Qin Zhigu quickly pulled back his hand and slipped his phone into his pocket. As for Lu Weixi, her expression was calm, altogether indifferent.
She didnât believe sheâd done anything wrong, and saw no reason to restrain herself. Instead, she was still angry at Qin Zhiyou and didnât want to deal with him.
But Qin Zhiyou didnât care. He charged up to them, and then landed a punch straight onto Qin Zhiguâs face.
The scene immediately erupted into chaos.
Qin Weijian and Kong Jie had also come out looking for their son. They knew their son still had residual feelings for Lu Weixi and feared something might happen between them. Even if nothing happened, it was raining and their son would certainly have forgotten his umbrella, so both of them were carrying umbrellas. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
When they arrived, they saw Qin Zhiyou punching their own son.
The punch sent Qin Zhigu staggering back several steps, causing him to stumble against the gazeboâs railings. Enraged, Qin Zhiyou had put a lot of force into his punch; it landed on the corner of Qin Zhiguâs mouth, causing it to bleed.
Qin Zhigu was taken aback by the sudden attack. Before he could react, Qin Zhiyou grabbed his collar and yelled, âBastard, how dare you covet your sister- in-law!â
âWhat sister-in-law! She was originally my girlfriend!â Although Qin Zhigu was relatively mild-mannered, there was no way he wouldnât get angry in this situation, âBack in the day, were you already planning to go after her?â
