Chapter 3876: Envy

Editor: Henyee Translations

Du Jiayi knew how to calm her brother down very well. She pouted and pretended to be aggrieved. “I admit that I have a deep prejudice against Ye Jian. It’s her fault for offending me in the past. Also, all of you said that she’s amazing. Ha, I’m not convinced! I feel that I’m much better than her!

“Also, Brother, you can’t expect me to get rid of my prejudice against her immediately, right? I have to take it slow. Don’t worry, I won’t say a word about your conversation with the military unit. I promise, I swear!”

She smiled and made funny faces. In the end, she even ran over to massage Du Kaiwei’s shoulders. As expected, after a while, Du Kaiwei’s face was no longer gloomy.

He said dotingly, “Don’t say that you’re better than Ye Jian. She’s really a rare talent. All the soldiers in the company respect her. You’re indeed better than her in some aspects, such as singing and dancing.

“I heard that Qin Xiu likes musicals. You can focus more on this and try to have a common interest with him. You have to take an exam to get into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so you need to work on it.

“Qin Xiu is not bad. I support you.”

At the mention of Qin Xiu, Du Jiayi pursed her lips. She had been wooing Qin Xiu for so long. Even Mrs. Qin was very happy at the idea of her and Qin Xiu becoming a couple. However, Qin Xiu always kept a distance from her. From the moment he rejected her until now, he had never given her hope.

Du Kaiwei sensed that his younger sister was in a bad mood, so he didn’t ask her to massage his shoulders anymore. He turned his chair and faced Du Jiayi. He asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Is Qin Xiu not good?”

“It’s not that. He’s very good. I’ve been pursuing him for so long, but he’s not reacting to anything I do.”

“He didn’t say anything? That shouldn’t be the case. Does Qin Xiu have a woman he likes?”

His words woke Du Jiayi up. Hearing that, a vicious look flashed past Du Jiayi’s eyes. That was right, she had been pursuing him for so long, but there was no result. It was probably like what her brother said—Qin Xiu had someone he liked!

Who dared to snatch her boyfriend?!

“Qin Xiu is 28 years old. It’s normal for him to like someone. If he does, he needs the Qin family’s approval. Since Mrs. Qin supports you and Qin Xiu, it means that the woman Qin Xiu likes hasn’t been recognized by the Qin family.

“For a family like the Qin family, both families’ consent are important for marriage. Most importantly, their families need to be compatible and the parents need to be satisfied. Jiayi, your chances of winning are higher.”

Even so, she didn’t want the man she liked to like other women. She would never allow such a thing to happen!

She needed to investigate properly.

Coincidentally, it was the new year now. She could investigate where Qin Xiu went during the new year and which ladies he met. This way, she could basically find out who the woman Qin Xiu liked was.

At the mention of Qin Xiu, Du Jiayi threw the matter of scheming against Ye Jian aside and thought about how to find out Qin Xiu’s whereabouts for the past few days.

Du Kaiwei naturally stood on his sister’s side and even helped to investigate secretly.

It was very simple to know where Qin Xiu had been for the past few days. Madam Li brought her grandson home and called Madam Qin after hearing her daughter’s reminder. She only received one reply—Qin Xiu had been at the Fu family’s house all day, playing chess with Old Master Fu.

Grandpa Fu didn’t have any women in his family!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Du Jiayi finally felt at ease. In the afternoon, she happily accompanied Madam Li to the Li family. Du Kaiwei and his family were also accompanying her.
