Chapter 3 How Much Does He Love Her?

  She knew that because of her behavior, Sister Xiaoyun would definitely blame her and think she was unreasonable.

  But in front of Lixiao Yi, she was always the one with no other choice.

  "After packing up, let's go to the dining hall to eat together, Aunt Lan should be almost done."

  Lian Ying's voice came from behind again, causing Qin Nianqiu's footsteps to pause involuntarily once more.

  "How come, Yu Yi, didn't you say you'd accompany me to eat together?" Su Zhiwei's voice was instantly filled with grievance.

  Lai Ruiyi lowered his head and smiled at her, a kind of gentleness that Qin Nianqiu had never experienced before.

  "Okay, it's going to rain soon, let's try Aunt Lan's cooking today. You stay after dinner, okay?"

  She stayed? Then they...

  Qin Nian Ge's palms quietly clenched into fists, her fingernails digging into the flesh of her hands, causing a sharp pain.

  Su Zhiwei, standing beside Li Xiang, blushed and nodded heavily at him.

  When he lifted his head to look at Qin Nian Ge again, the warmth in his eyes disappeared in an instant: "Hurry up and go, come down to eat within ten minutes."

  "Yes." Although Mingming was nominally a guest living in the Zhang's house, she could only nod and agree to his orders like a servant.

  With her back to the two people downstairs, Qin Nian Ge's pearly whites involuntarily bit tightly onto her pale red lips.

  In this case, why did she still secretly fall in love with him?

  Dare not stay in front of them anymore, Qin Nian Ge ran upstairs and rushed into the room next to Lie Wu Ying's bedroom.

  Their rooms have been adjacent... since the day she moved into the exhibition house.

  Qin Nian Ge rushed into the bathroom connected to her room, looking at the mirror and seeing a pale face staring back at her, she couldn't help but curve up a wry smile on her lips.

  "Qin Niange, stop dreaming, look at yourself, what can you compare to Weiwei... Besides, besides... your mother is still Lao Erbo's mistress."

  So he hated her before he even had a chance to love her, how could he possibly fall in love with her?

  Qin Nian Ge's eyes welled up with a tear, and she weakly looked away, not wanting to see her own teary face in the mirror.

  Lai Ruiyi had only ten minutes for her, and she didn't have any spare time to be sentimental here.

  Qin Niange raised her head, blinked away the tears in her eyes, turned on the faucet to wash her face, and then combed her hair before turning around and walking out of the bathroom.

  Ling Yi didn't like her changing out of her school uniform too early, all the way until evening... before that, she had to wear it honestly on her body.

  Qin Nian Ge's face turned red for a moment, she took off her backpack and hung it on the clothes rack, then hastily walked out of the room.

  Because he was worried about the time stipulated by Lian Yi, Qin Nian Ge walked very quickly all the way.

  All the way to the door of the dining hall, just as she was about to knock and enter, she clearly heard a faint sigh coming from inside the door.

  She was all too familiar with that sound, so in just a split second, her hand stiffened and stopped at the door edge, staring blankly through the gap inside.

  By the dinner table, Su Zhiwei was tightly embracing and kissing Li Xueying. The buttons on her front were accidentally unbuttoned due to their movements, even revealing a corner of her undergarment.

  But Su Zhiwei was completely unaware, deeply entangled in a desperate struggle with Li Xueyi, and even from such a distance, Qin Nian Ge seemed to be able to see the expression on her face.

  Qin Nian's heart suddenly ached, and she unknowingly retreated two steps, raising her head to meet Lai Yue's cold and indifferent eyes.

  He... was watching her through the crack in the door.

  Qin Nian Ge looked at him in alarm.
