The speed at which Qin Mei switched faces left Qin Ruan speechless.
The next second, she laughed.
Her refined and radiant face was blooming with smiles, sweet and captivating, truly unparalleled in beauty.
At her laughter, Qin Mei forgot all about acting, left staring in awe.
In the year that Qin Ruan had returned to the Qin family, this was the first time he had seen her laugh so freely and genuinely.
Hers was a captivating beauty when she laughed.
Qin Ruan took a few steps to Qin Mei, took the key from his hand, and punched him playfully on his shoulder. freёweɓnovel.com
Despite the punch, he didn’t budge an inch, while her hand felt a bit sore.
She could distinctly feel his thin yet lean body’s explosive power.
“What’s the point of being this muscular?
It made my hand hurt,” Qin Ruan grimaced, feigning a complaint.
“If I accidentally killed you, my sturdy brother, with a key, I would be wronged more than Dou E.”
Qin Mei was unaffected by Qin Ruan’s light punch.
Hearing her complain about her sore hand and seeing her frowning, all the pretentious expressions on his face quickly faded, replaced with deep concern.
Before he could even inquire, he heard Qin Ruan’s next words, and he was completely stunned, as if he had heard something unbelievable and shocking.
His sister called him “Brother”!
This word, “Brother”, was so unfamiliar.
So unfamiliar that Qin Mei had yearned to hear it day by day, for an entire year, and now he had finally heard it.
He felt as if he was floating on a cloud.
This feeling, he would never forget.
Seeing Qin Mei in this enchanted state, Qin Ruan burst into laughter.
Her laughing eyes released an affectionate glow, and she looked at her brother before her as if he was a fool.
As the brother and sister exchanged a deep look, someone came in search of attention.
Han Xian, abandoning her gloomy face, wearing a worried expression, walked up to Qin Mei.
She examined him up and down with concern, asking anxiously, “Amei, are you okay?”
Without waiting for Qin Mei’s response, Han Xian frowned disapprovingly at Qin Ruan.
“Ruanruan, I know you’re not that close with us, but Amei is still your brother.
How could you hurt him?
If Mr.
Qin knew, he would be so disappointed in you.”
Qin Ruan’s smile faded slightly.
Her deep, cold eyes quietly stared at Han Xian as if seeing right through her.
Under Qin Ruan’s penetrating gaze, Han Xian shivered a bit.
Under Qin Ruan’s gaze, all her dark secrets seemed to have nowhere to hide.
Noticing Han Xian’s avoidance, Qin Ruan opened her lips, voicing her unwavering determination, “Han Xian, the person least qualified to lecture me in this household is you.
I think you can shut up.
There’s no need to be so desperate for attention.”
For the first time, Qin Ruan confronted Han Xian directly.
In the past, she had put up with this woman for the sake of face.
A strange light flashed across Han Xian’s eyes, she finally agreed with her daughter’s words, Qin Ruan had indeed changed.
Ever since she returned home, the deeply hidden sense of inferiority was gone from her eyes, and so was the conflicting feeling of estrangement and desire to be close to her family.
She was like stepping into her own territory, flaunt in her demeanor, seemingly underplayed but actually quite arrogant.
Han Xian was pissed off, her delicate face softened by light makeup slightly reddening, her eyes tearful.
She pointed at Qin Ruan, crying out, “How could you say such things about me?”
Despite her nearing fifty, she looked pitiful, making anyone who saw her think that Qin Ruan was bullying her.
