Qin Yingyue did not say anything else.
It had been so many years since they had parted. Every parent’s dream was to be able to taste their son’s cooking. This brought them great happiness and comfort.
As she thought about it, Qin Yingyue’s eyes teared up.
“Thankfully i didn’t cry earlier.” Qin Yingyue took out a tissue and wiped her eyes.
“But i didn’t raise him. I don’t feel at ease eating this meal.”
“What do you mean you didn’t raise him?” Shen Shuyi said.
“You’re the one who gave him life. That’s the greatest kindness you’ve ever shown. No one is more qualified to eat what he cooks than you.”
Qin Yingyue wiped her tears. “It’s not as straightforward as you make it out to be.”
“You’ve been with Lin Jingzhan for so many years. Why haven’t you picked up his ruthlessness? You’re still so sentimental. What’s wrong with you?”
“There are things you don’t understand.”
Shen Shuyi took a sip of tea and did not say anything else.
Qin Yingyue was a smart person. There was no need for her to explain herself.
She would slowly figure it out if she was given some time.
She really could not persuade her beyond this.
Without personally experiencing it, she could not empathize with her friend’s situation.
“Alright, quickly wipe your tears. Lin Yi will be here soon. If he sees you crying here, what will he think?”
“I’ll tell him that something got into my eye.”
“That son of yours is so smart. Do you think you can fool him?” Shen Shuyi said.
“But that’s the good thing about him. He never cares much about things that have nothing to do with him.”
Just as the two of them were talking, the waiter’s voice came from outside the door. Qin Yingyue quickly wiped her tears to avoid being exposed.
Soon, the waiter came in with the dishes.
“It looks pretty good.” Shen Shuyi nodded in satisfaction. Then, she picked up a piece of chicken for Qin Yingyue. “Try it. The food cooked by Chef Lin is not something that ordinary people can ever taste.”
Qin Yingyue took a bite and realized that the food was genuinely delicious.
Shen Shuyi could not understand the satisfaction in her heart, but she was very jealous.
That was because on Liang Cunxiao’s fiftieth birthday, Liang Ruoxu patted her chest and said that she would make a feast for him. Moments later, she almost set the kitchen on fire.
Meanwhile, the first meal Lin Yi made for Qin Yingyue was so delicious.
Why was the difference in outcome so vast?
“It’s indeed delicious.”
As he wasn’t familiar with Qin Yingyue, Lin Yi didn’t say much and just smiled.
This was the first time Shen Shuyi had tasted Lin Yi’s dishes.
Previously, he had only heard from Liang Ruoxu on the phone that Lin Yi’s food was delicious.
She was finally tasting it today. It was indeed not bad. She even eaten half a bowl of rice more than usual.
The three of them ate dinner for more than an hour.
The topic of conversation at the banquet was more about Lin Yi’s daily life. It was also aimed at letting Qin Yingyue know more about Lin Yi.
It seemed that Lin Yi had a lot on his plate.
After dinner, the restaurant manager came out to send them off. Then, the three of them went down to the underground garage and prepared to take the car home.
In the underground parking lot, the Qin brothers’ car was parked diagonally opposite the A8. They could clearly see everything in front of them.
“Brother, they’re here!”
Seeing the three of them come down the stairs, the two of them sat up straight and paid close attention to their situation.
Shen Shuyi stood beside the car and looked at Qin Yingyue. “Old Liang is on a business trip. You can stay at my place tonight.”
“I’ve booked a hotel.”
“If you’ve made a reservation, just cancel it. It’ll be boring for me to stay alone at home.”
Lin Yi pursed his lips. What was their relationship?
Why was Shen Shuyi inviting her to stay at her house?
Even so, Lin Yi didn’t think too much about it. He wouldn’t spend so much time overthinking things that had nothing to do with him.
“Alright, since there’s no one else at home, I’ll stay with you.”
After deciding on the route, the three of them got into their cars and prepared to go back and rest. After all, it was getting late.
On the other side, the Qin brothers looked at each other.
“Brother, things aren’t looking good. Aunt is going to stay at Shen Shuyi’s house tonight. Can we wait any longer?”
Qin Yanfu was silent for a few seconds. “Let’s move now. There’s no need to wait any longer. We can’t underestimate Aunt. She might slip away at any time.”
“Good!”
At the same time, Lin Yi drove towards the exit of the underground garage.
However, not long after he drove out, he saw a Rolls-Royce Cullinan blocking his way.
At first, Lin Yi didn’t think much of it. He thought that the other party would drive off soon, but after waiting for more than ten seconds, he realized that the other party hadn’t done anything. It seemed like they were intentionally stopping there to block the way.
“Is that him?”
Lin Yi was a little surprised to see the driver.
He immediately recognized Qin Yanling!
“Is this bastard here to seek revenge?”
Muttering under his breath, Lin Yi opened the car door and got out.
At the same time, the Qin brothers got out of the car.
They were standing opposite to Lin Yi.
“You’ve really forgotten the pain after recovering. How long has it been since your beating, yet you already want to take revenge on me?”
Qin Yanling looked at Lin Yi coldly.
“You’d better get lost. I didn’t come here today for you!”
In reality, he really wanted to use this opportunity to take revenge, but because of Lin Yi’s position as the team leader of Team 1, he did not dare to make a move recklessly.
Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, Qin Yanling would not make a move.
“You’re not here for me?”
These words surprised Lin Yi even more.
If they weren’t here for him, there was no reason for them to block the road.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi had a bad feeling.
There were only two cars here. If they weren’t here for him, could they be here for Aunt Shen?
That seemed even more impossible.
She was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Liang family and the head of Huarun Group.
It didn’t matter who they were, as no one dared to touch her.
Even if there were a genuine reason, they would confront the other party openly. They wouldn’t resort to such a radical approach. After all, the Qin family wasn’t that foolish.
At this moment, Shen Shuyi and Qin Yingyue, who realized that something was wrong, also got out of the car.
Seeing that the people standing opposite them were Qin Yanfu and Qin Yanling, Qin Yingyue’s expression changed drastically!
She knew very well that they were here for her.
“Aunt, long time no see.”
Lin Yi’s expression froze when he heard this. His body froze on the spot as if he had been petrified.
The hairs on his body stood on end, as if he had heard something terrifying.
Previously, he had heard from Shen Shuyi and Liang Ruoxu that his biological mother’s name was Qin Yingyue.
She was the third daughter of the Qin Family in Yanjing!
Strictly speaking, Qin Yanling was his cousin!
Because his biological mother was their aunt!
Now, he actually called the woman beside Shen Shuyi ‘Aunt’!
In other words…
At the thought of this, Lin Yi’s face turned pale, and even his lips trembled.
He turned his head mechanically and his gaze landed on Qin Yingyue.
His eyes were filled with complicated and indescribable emotions as he asked with a trembling voice,
“You…. you’re Qin Yingyue?”
