Of course, there was Jing Ni, who was also curious.

When the men solemnly went to discuss important matters, we quietly ‘kidnapped’ Mai Qi to our room.

After going through this ordeal, I was already drenched in sweat and collapsed on the sofa. I shouted at her, “Hurry up and confess. You know that I’m still a patient! Tell me something interesting to help me calm down.”

Jing Ni hurriedly poured me some water and touched my forehead. She said with concern, “Are you alright? Do you want me to call Mr. Li over to take a look? It’s my fault for rushing you. If I knew that it was a false alarm, I wouldn’t have bothered you.”

I drank some water and smiled. “I have to thank you. If it wasn’t for you coming to look for me, how could I have seen such a lively scene? I’m so happy to see our girl getting married!”

Jing Ni smiled. “She’s going to marry into your family too. Of course, you’re happy.”

We all looked at Mai Qi with smiles on our faces.

Mai Qi’s face was now full of complacent smiles. Anyway, she didn’t need to act in front of us.

“This is the first time I’ve seen Qu Hao so angry.” Jing Ni sighed.

Mai Qi snorted. “That’s because he is always gentle around you. Even that high and mighty figure in our family hasn’t been able to get a smile from his son in his entire life. Showing him the woman he loves the most is already giving him the greatest face. If he dares to say no, I guarantee that my brother will immediately leave the family and elope with you!”

Jing Ni turned her face away in embarrassment.

I curiously pulled her back. “Did his father make things difficult for you?”

Jing Ni pushed my hand away. She was a little embarrassed, but she still said frankly, “He wishes us happiness.”

“See. What did I say? As long as it’s approved by my brother, my father won’t dare to disagree.”

I smiled and thought to myself, Your brother probably reported this in advance. The elder has already thoroughly investigated Jing Ni. He would have known everything about her.

Now, he has to do another thorough investigation on my little uncle. Whether it is Mai Qi or Jing Ni’s marriage, it is a crucial and important matter for their family.

Qu Hao should have done his homework. Things are not as simple as Mai Qi said.

Mai Qi is so fearless. No wonder Qu Hao is so troubled by her.

She did the deed first, and no one could complain about it later. There was no taking back. Even her father couldn’t do anything about it.

“Your father won’t say anything, but I reckon he’ll beat your brother up.”

Both of them looked at me.

I shrugged. “Do you want to make a bet? If I were him, I’d at least beat him up to vent my anger. I can’t beat up my daughter, and my son-in-law is an outsider, so my son is the best outlet. So, you’d better suck up to your brother. Don’t blame him for being so angry.”

Jing Ni defended him. “Qu Hao is angry that Maggie and Tong Le lost their sense of propriety.”

I laughed at her. “Oh, does your heart ache for him?”

Jing Ni hit me.

Mai Qi said, “Isn’t it normal for my sister-in-law’s heart to ache for my brother?”

I raised my eyebrows. “Oh, so the in-laws are ganging up on me already?”

The two of them pounced on me and tickled me.

I laughed until I was covered in sweat.
