Lu Yuansi’s eyes flashed.
Wasn’t she staying with the Qin family? With the power and influence of the Qin family, how could they let her work part-time?
Compassion stirred in Lu Yuansi’s heart unconsciously.
“Don’t let it affect your learning.”
However, as soon as his voice fell, the two of them looked at each other and the atmosphere froze for a moment.
“There’s nothing much to learn.” She gave a lazy laugh and walked around him to leave. This impassive and laidback countenance made Lu Yuansi’s eyelid jump.
She was at least a distant relative of the Qin family, but why was her character so different from Qin Youjiao?
As the eldest young lady of the Qin family, Qin Youjiao could do almost everything. Even her grades were the top three of her year and she had never fallen below that.
She was very demanding of herself and expected nothing less.
How could they be so different?
…
The night was getting darker.
In the Qin family home.
Before Pei Yunge entered the hall, she heard the tinkling sounds of the piano from inside.
The moment she looked up, she saw a pair of elegant mother and daughter under the crystal chandelier, playing the piano intimately and completely in sync.
The original protagonist had seen this scene several times. A faint smile appeared on her lips and carrying her bag, she was about to go back to her room.
“Ge’er!”
Qin Lang, who had been waiting anxiously by the side, called out to her.
It was only then that Mrs Qin and Qin Youjiao then noticed Pei Yunge.
A dark look flashed past Qin Youjiao’s eyes. She turned to look at Mrs Qin and said in a spoiled manner. “Mom, I told you I’d hurt my hand. Are you deliberately using me to serve as a contrast to you?”
Before Mrs Qin could take another look at Pei Yunge, her eyes fell on Qin Youjiao again.
She found it amusing and reached out to touch Qin Youjiao’s nose. “Why is your character so competitive like mine when I was young?”
Those who did not know would think that they really were mother and daughter.
“Stop playing and let’s eat.” Perhaps feeling the unusual atmosphere, Mr Qin, who was sitting on the sofa, interrupted. Then, his eyes fell on Pei Yunge.
He was stunned. Perhaps it was because he did not expect that Pei Yunge’s face would look like this without all of that makeup.
“Girls look much better without thick makeup,” Mr Qin said lightly.
Pei Yinge slowly glanced at the people around her, and for the first time, felt that eating would be too much trouble.
“I’ll put my bag away first,” she said before she walked upstairs.
Hearing this, Mr Qin could not help but look at Pei Yunge’s retreating back. He rarely saw her having such a lazy and indifferent expression.
At this moment, Qin Youjiao’s voice interrupted Mr Qin’s thoughts. “Dad, I’m second in the year and I’m just two points below the person who was first. Will you be coming to my parents-teacher meeting?”
A trace of affection appeared on Mr Qin’s cold face when he heard this. “Didn’t I say you have to be first?”
“But this time, I won an award,” Qin Youjiao said with a tilt of her head.
“What award?”
“I won’t tell you if you don’t go!”
Mr Qin could not help laughing. “Ah, someone definitely spoils you too much usually. Fine, I will attend.”
“What do you mean spoil Jiaojiao? Daughters are for us to dote on,” Mrs Qin disagreed.
The atmosphere of this family of three was extremely harmonious. Meanwhile, Qin Lang was seated at the side with a cigarette between his lips, not saying a word. He seemed to be in low spirits.
In the past, was this how Ge’er saw their family, including the three brothers? Always being so caring towards Qin Youjiao? Perhaps in her heart, she had long felt that she was an outsider.
Qin Lang felt even more uncomfortable thinking of this.
“Why are you sitting there? Didn’t you hear your father say to have dinner?” Mrs Qin gestured him over.
“Why are we eating when not everyone is here?” Qin Lang’s languid tone was slightly cold.
