Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Mrs. Qin was trembling all over.

”This photo... where did you get it from?”

As she spoke, she reached to grab it and tear it into pieces.

Jun Ruyi sneered, ”If you tear this one up, I have a hundred more. If I’m not happy, this photo will be on the front page of every entertainment section in Imperial City tomorrow, along with that bizarre performance photo of Qin Wenrou playing piano with her feet. How effective do you think that would be?”

Mrs. Qin: ”You... you can’t hurt my child like this...”

Jun Ruyi: ”Let me guess, the man in this photo, so ugly, kneeling and fawning over you, was the child he made you bear back then Qin Xin or Qin Wenrou?”

Mrs. Qin trembled more violently.

But Jun Ruyi continued with gusto:

”Logically, Qin Wenrou is so dumb, she seems more likely to have this ugly man’s genes. However, I heard that Qin Xin was also a fool and a waste before she was six. Maybe Qin Xin is also a child you had with him?”

”This man is a servant from your maiden family, who followed you since you were little. Did you mess around with him before marriage and have Qin Xin?”

”You just said you can’t call off the engagement with the Nalan Family.”

”I’ve already found an excuse for you, take this photo to Nalan Ye Jue and say that Qin Xin is a bastard you had with this man, unworthy of the Nalan Family, wouldn’t that solve your problem?”

”The Nalan Family’s marriage contract is with the Qin Family. If Qin Xin isn’t even a real member of the Qin Family, wouldn’t calling off the engagement be justified?”

”Really, you’re so dim-witted that I have to teach you step by step?”

Jun Ruyi spoke with relish.

However.

After a few minutes of silence, Mrs. Qin suddenly said hoarsely, ”Miss Jun, it’s not possible.”

Jun Ruyi: ”Why not?”

Mrs. Qin: ”You guessed wrong. Qin Xin... is truly the Qin Family’s daughter, her blood is pure Qin, that can’t be faked. If I lie, Mr. Nalan is so smart he would see through it immediately.”

Jun Ruyi frowned, disappointment rising in her eyes: ”Damn it, are you saying Qin Wenrou is the lowly bastard you had with that despicable servant?”

Mrs. Qin bit her lip.

Although she didn’t speak, she tacitly agreed.

Jun Ruyi paced around the room, clutching the photo.

Mrs. Qin, in contrast, gradually calmed down: ”Miss Jun, although I can’t do what you just suggested, I can try to break off the engagement with Mr. Nalan again... in another way.”

Jun Ruyi: ”You have another way? Speak up!”

Mrs. Qin pressed her lips together: ”I can only say I’ll try, I can’t guarantee success. But I hope you will honor your part of the deal too: first, sponsor Rou’er’s heart surgery; second, destroy this photo and pretend you’ve never seen it.”

Jun Ruyi: ”Deal!”

She didn’t have many choices left; besides pressuring Mrs. Qin to break off the engagement, she had no better plan.

After Jun Ruyi left.

Qin Wenrou came downstairs with a nosy look on her face, a bit excitedly asking, ”Mommy, I just heard you say that sis was really dumb before she was six?”

Mrs. Qin put on a rare stern face: ”What else did you hear?”

Qin Wenrou was taken aback: ”No, nothing else...”

Why is Mommy being so harsh?

She just wanted to know if Qin Xin was really that dumb back then?

How dumb exactly?

Isn’t she the one-in-a-century genius of the Qin Family? The kind whose IQ tests off the charts.

Qingcheng Village.

Qin Xin got off the train, switched to a bus, then a horse cart and finally a donkey cart, winding her way until she finally arrived at the small remote village.

She pushed open the familiar wooden courtyard gate and smelled the light fragrance of herbs, and only then did she truly relax.

Smiling delightfully, she called into the yard, ”Master Tuantuan! I’ve come to see you, old man.”
