Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Qin Shaojin kicked Yu Zimu’s stool.

Yu Zimu had just picked up the bamboo stick when he was startled and nearly poked his own face!

He dodged the stick but not the mutton, smearing grease all over his face.

Yu Zimu looked at Qin Moting, ”Uncle San, I must say your Qin Xiaosan is quite the scoundrel.”

”...”

Qin Moting glanced at Qin Shaojin, ”Alright, all you young people are too noisy. I prefer peace and quiet, so I’d rather not join in your fun.”

Having said that, he turned to Ji Yan.

Ji Yan looked at Qin Moting reluctantly, ”President Qin, do you still need the wheelchair?”

”...”

Qin Moting didn’t say a word but looked at Ji Yan.

Ji Yan always felt that President Qin was eager to dock his year-end bonus, so he hurriedly pushed him out of the private room.

Once Ji Yan and Qin Moting had gone a distance, Yu Zimu turned to Qin Shaojin, ”I’ve always thought that Ji Yan was some kept bottom raised by your Fourth Uncle...”

Che Huan coughed lightly.

Yu Zimu looked at Che Huan and slapped his own cheek, ”Sister-in-law, my bad!”

Che Huan didn’t say anything further.

Yu Zimu hesitated for a moment, then smiling sheepishly at Che Huan, ”Honestly, Sister-in-law, it’s not like he’s your real dad. Qin Xiaosan won’t mind if I say—”

Qin Shaojin swept a chilly glance at Yu Zimu, ”What do you think is the reason my Fourth Uncle gifted 10% of his shares to Sister-in-law?”

”No way?” Yu Zimu looked at Qin Shaojin, disbelief written all over his face.

Qin Shaojin averted his gaze and spoke leisurely, ”I drafted the donation agreement, what do you think?”

”...”

Yu Zimu looked at Che Huan. Qin Moting was indeed a well-known figure in their circle. To put it nicely, he was frugal and always managed his household well! This gift of 10% shares was definitely one for his own flesh and blood daughter!

Che Huan felt a bit uncomfortable under his gaze.

Huo Jinnan glanced at Yu Zimu, ”Got a meat bump in your eye?”

A single look, without any other intent, was Huo Brother being a bit too petty?

Yu Zimu silently complained to himself and looked away from Huo Jinnan, turning his gaze to Qin Shaojin. So his Fourth Uncle and his sister-in-law’s mother had been old lovers?

Damn, this is way too melodramatic!

Wouldn’t that make Sister-in-law’s mother and Huo Jinyun love rivals?

Thinking of the words Qin Mochuan had said earlier, he originally only half-understood them, but now he had completely grasped the situation—a tragic affair sparked by one man and two women.

But Che Huan seemed younger than Gu Jizhou, so was Che Huan’s mother the mistress? Was Che Huan the illegitimate daughter of Qin Laosi and Wen Ru?

Of course, these were just his thoughts, not daring to voice them aloud, yet he couldn’t help but look up in Che Huan’s direction.

Just then, a low, cold male voice reached his ears.

”That plate of pig kidneys is yours.”

”...”

Yu Zimu awkwardly turned his head to look in Huo Jinnan’s direction, ”Huo Brother...”

Huo Jinnan lit a cigarette, ”There’s a project at the end of the year, in the Congo...”

Yu Zimu brought a plate of pig kidneys in front of himself, ”Huo Brother, I’ll take responsibility for this plate of kidneys!”

————Yunqi Academy————

After the barbecue, they arrived back at Nanyuan Villa well past nine.

As soon as she entered, Nurse Rong thought of the daily task of giving the folic acid tablet that was yet to be completed, she looked at Huo Jinnan, ”Sir, I’ll go prepare something for the madam to eat later.”

Huo Jinnan hung his suit to one side and nonchalantly acknowledged with a ”hm,” lit a cigarette, casually took Che Huan’s bag, and placed it on the cabinet by the entrance.

After entering the villa, Che Huan didn’t see the little one and turned to Huo Jinxue, who was engrossed in a TV drama, ”Where’s Xiaowei?”

Huo Jinxue, absorbed in the exciting part of the show, replied without turning her head, ”He snuck off to upstairs as soon as he got back, who knows what for.”

The moment her words ended, the TV screen went black.

Turning her head, Huo Jinxue saw Huo Bei holding the remote control. The words of protest that reached her lips were promptly swallowed as she quickly plastered on a smile, ”Big Brother, Sister-in-law, you’re back?”

Huo Jinnan tossed the remote control to Huo Jinxue and, seeing Huo Bei approach with a phone call, his brow furrowed slightly.

Huo Bei came closer to Huo Jinnan and whispered, ”Sir, the young miss may have gone crazy.”
