âMrs. Lan, Miss Meng.â As soon as he saw the two walking into the dining room, the butler hesitated for a moment before respectfully greeting them.
âIâm joining my aunt for breakfast, Iâm not sure if my sudden arrival doesnât allow you enough time to prepare my share?â Meng Ziqi smiled charmingly, speaking very endearingly.
It was rare to see her so polite in the Qin household.
Instead of ordering the servants around.
Not only Qin Youxuan was taken aback, but also the butler, who had never heard her speak so politely, remained stunned for quite a while.
âOf⦠of course, Miss Meng.â
âThen you can prepare the same breakfast as my auntâs for me, thank you.â The smile on Meng Ziqiâs face grew bigger.
âYouâre welcome.â
The butler, looking perplexed, turned around and went into the kitchen.
Qin Youxuan could assure that the butler was definitely doubting his own hearing.
âXuan, I didnât expect to see you here. The papers say youâre not the Qinâs biological daughter, I thought you had already left the Qin familyâ¦â
Meng Ziqi, pushing Jin Lan towards the table and spotting Qin Youxuan sitting still, exclaimed in surprise.
As her words fell, Qin Youxuan clear saw the confusion on Jin Lanâs face, and immediately understood Meng Ziqiâs purpose of coming to the Qin household today.
Meng Ziqi was probably worried that Jin Lan wasnât aware yet. That she, the Miss Qin, was an imposter occupying the rightful identity and position of the young master of the Qin family. Now that her identity had been revealed, she was blatantly refusing to leave.
No wonder Meng Ziqi, who has never been courteous to the Qin family servants, would suddenly change her ways today.
This woman, for Jin Chenye, really had no scruples.
âWhether I stay or leave, it should be none of the business of an outsider, right?â Qin Youxuan had had enough of her hypocrisy and directly addressed the issue.
âI am indeed an outsider, but youâre not exactly family anymore now, are you? After all, youâre not related to Mr. Qin by blood. Everyone knows that now. The real Miss Qin is an illegitimate child of an unknown father, while the truly noble young master of the Qin family has, because of you, borne the blame for over twenty years. What right do you have to act so justifiably?â
âJust because Iâm still able to sit here and call Mr. Qin, whom you referred to as âfatherâ, unlike someone who shamelessly clings on despite clearly knowing that theyâre not welcome. Compared to this shamelessness, I am humbled.â Qin Youxuan sneers.
Her arms crossed, she eyes Meng Ziqiâs face turning green and red, relishing the scene.
Daring to argue with her, she really overestimated herself.
After all, she was a law student who once aspired to dedicate herself to the legal profession.
While bluffing, she could easily outdo one Meng Ziqi.
âWhat⦠whatâs happeningâ¦â
Jin Lan suddenly reached out, gripping Meng Ziqiâs hand tightly, desperate to know the ins and outs.
Why didnât anyone tell her about such a big matter?
âYeâ⦠Yeâerâ¦â
Jin Lan struggled to spin her wheelchair, wanting to find Jin Chenye.
She needs to know whatâs going on!
âAunt, be careful!â
Jin Lanâs reaction was more intense than anyone had expected and she headed towards the entrance of the dining room in her staggering wheelchair.
ââ¦.â
Qin Youxuan frowned, she sat in the chair without moving.
Given her current status, she is not suitable to interfere in the Qin family affairs.
Moreover, considering that Jin Lan dislikes her so much, she might get even more agitated if she tried to stop her at this moment.
âMom!â
âDonât get worked up. Whatever it is, we can talk slowly. The doctor has advised you to stay calm.â
Just in time, the handsome figure of Jin Chenye appeared at the entrance of the dining room, stabilizing Jin Lanâs wheelchair.
