Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived
Chapter 1531 - 1532: When Did You Come Back?
Looking at her grandson’s back as he went upstairs, Zhuang Yanyan had a puzzled, bewildered expression.
From his relaxed tone, it seemed he had successfully wooed Jinglei.
"How can you be sure she doesn’t have one?"
Gazing at the second floor, Zhuang Yanyan wanted to ask more.
But Qin Feimo didn’t say anything further and went straight upstairs.
Just as he reached the middle of the stairs, he suddenly saw a figure coming down.
He paused, standing there.
"When did you return?"
Qin Sijue descended the stairs, glancing at his cousin who grew up with him. His face was less steady than Qin Feimo’s, but more carefree and rebellious.
"An hour ago."
...
At the Commander Residence, with her little grandson back, Zhuang Yanyan was so happy she couldn’t stop smiling.
Soon it was lunchtime, and Feng Jinglei walked into the dining room, freezing the moment she spotted Qin Sijue.
Having been at the Commander Residence for three years, she had heard of but never seen Qin Feimo’s cousin. Word was he had been studying abroad and hadn’t returned for three years.
"Jinglei, come over!" Zhuang Yanyan warmly waved her over and seated her next to herself.
Then, she cheerfully glanced at her grandson, "This is the person I told you about, Feimo’s cousin. Just call him Sijue."
Looking at Qin Sijue, comparing with Qin Feimo, their personalities seemed completely different. His cousin gave off a feeling of defiance and arrogance.
But perhaps this was what people referred to as youthful recklessness.
"Sijue, this is whom I spoke to you about, your Uncle Feng’s daughter, Feng Jinglei. She might even be your future cousin-in-law!"
She said the last sentence particularly softly.
"Oh."
Qin Sijue merely glanced at Feng Jinglei, then picked up his chopsticks to eat!
Seeing her grandson’s still disrespectful attitude, not caring about anyone, Zhuang Yanyan didn’t like it, but she doted on him endlessly.
Turning to Feng Jinglei with a smile, she explained, "Don’t mind him, Jinglei. He’s always had this disrespectful attitude."
Feng Jinglei just smiled and didn’t speak, her mind really focused on Zhuang Yanyan’s whisper about being the ’future cousin-in-law’.
Picking up bowl and chopsticks, Feng Jinglei silently picked at the white rice in her bowl.
Qin Feimo’s gaze first fell on her face, then shifted to Qin Sijue, seemingly wanting to ease the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
Of course, he was also a bit curious about his cousin’s sudden return.
"Why the sudden return? Isn’t it busy over there?"
Hearing Qin Feimo chatting with his cousin, Feng Jinglei seemed relieved too.
"Planning to shift the focus of my business to the country," Qin Sijue said, taking another bite.
"Developing domestically?"
"Yes." Qin Sijue nodded.
No matter how well things were going abroad, he was ultimately a Qin Country person. His family was here, as were his beloved grandfather and grandmother along with his cousin.
"That sounds good. This way, the whole family can be together."
"Mm."
Seeing her two outstanding grandsons, Zhuang Yanyan suddenly found her eyes moistening.
Though both sons and daughters-in-law passed away early, at least the two grandsons had grown up. This was her greatest comfort.
Sitting at the head, she looked around at the few people at the table and couldn’t help but set down her bowl and chopsticks, "Since everyone is here, I’ll say this openly."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s gaze turned to Qin Guozhong.
Finally, Qin Guozhong’s gaze fell on Qin Feimo and Feng Jinglei’s faces.
