Chapter 279: Chapter 279: The House is Lively Now

Qin Yi originally thought that Liu Yiren was one of those naive and wealthy types, but didn’t expect her to have such sharp insight, letting out a few dry laughs.

Duan Xinyuan smiled and said, "Today is a good day. I’ll have someone prepare a table for us. Let’s drink a little later and wish Miss Liu success in finding a good doctor and driving away the illness in advance."

Qin Yi, however, waved his hand, "You guys celebrate. I’m heading home first!"

Duan Xinyuan said, "Don’t, stay for dinner before you go back?"

"No, the wife is waiting at home. She’s probably already made dinner."

Duan Xinyuan muttered softly, "Wife slave."

Qin Yi looked at him with a half-smile, "You have the nerve to say that about me?"

Duan Xinyuan blushed; at their house, it was also Xue Aoyu who called the shots.

"Hubby, I want to go back with you too."

Qin Yi laughed, "What are you going to do at my place?"

"It’s boring being home alone. At your place, I can play with Wan’er, plus if that little brat misbehaves, I can help you handle her."

Liu Yiren looked aggrievedly at Duan Yiyi.

"Alright, the more the merrier!"

Qin Yi took Qin Wan’er, Duan Yiyi, and Liu Yiren home.

...

Once home, they were greeted by the smell of delicious food upon entering.

Xia Yanbing, wearing an apron, was just coming out with a dish. Seeing Qin Yi bring in three little beauties, she couldn’t help but be taken aback.

There were already several dishes on the table, and Lin Hongzhuang was setting the tableware. She knew Duan Yiyi, but Liu Yiren was a stranger to her.

"Qin Yi, where did you abduct another little beauty from?"

Qin Yi rolled his eyes, too lazy to respond, took the dish from Xia Yanbing’s hands, and turned to place it on the table. Only then did he introduce Liu Yiren’s situation.

Xia Yanbing and Lin Hongzhuang felt for Liu Yiren, so young yet having to endure the torment of illness. It’s really pitiful.

"Hello, beautiful, I’m here to mooch off your meal," Duan Yiyi cheekily said.

Xia Yanbing couldn’t help but smile. Duan Yiyi constantly changed what she called her: from "Big Madam" to "Great Lady," now to "Great Beauty."

"Welcome!"

Duan Yiyi smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I’m just here to stay for a few days and keep Wan’er company. I won’t compete with you for hubby."

Xia Yanbing couldn’t help but laugh; in her eyes, Duan Yiyi was still a child.

Duan Yiyi looked at the dishes on the table and exclaimed, "Beautiful, did you make all these dishes?"

Xia Yanbing nodded.

"No wonder hubby doesn’t want to stay and eat at our place. These dishes look amazing. Beautiful, how are you so impressive? You’re a whiz in business outside and a genius in the kitchen at home. Impressive! Even more impressive than my mommy."

Xia Yanbing chuckled, "How can I compare with Director Xue?"

"Maybe you might fall short in business, but in cooking, you beat my mommy by a mile. My mommy could burn down the kitchen just making instant noodles."

Xia Yanbing was speechless; she didn’t expect Xue Aoyu to be so inept in household matters.

"Alright, take a seat! There’s one more dish, it’ll be ready soon."

Qin Yi followed her into the kitchen, "Honey, need any help?"

Xia Yanbing’s eyes twinkled mischievously, "What can you do? Fry an egg maybe?"

Qin Yi felt embarrassed; last time he tried frying eggs, he wasted twenty eggs with none edible.

"Alright, how dare you look down on your husband?" Qin Yi pinched her cheek affectionately.

Xia Yanbing pouted adorably, "Silly hubby..."

"Ahem, ahem..."

A cough came from behind.

Qin Yi turned his head and saw Liu Yiren sneaking in.

"What’s up?" Qin Yi asked.

Liu Yiren looked around and whispered, "So you have such a beautiful wife. No wonder you’re not into that silly Duan Yiyi, good job, I have to give you a thumbs up."

Qin Yi: "..."

Xia Yanbing couldn’t help but find it amusing too.

Liu Yiren whispered, "Hang in there, stay strong! Don’t fall for Duan Yiyi’s temptation, she’s really bad."

Qin Yi: "..."

Liu Yiren looked at Xia Yanbing, "Beautiful, you must watch out for Duan Yiyi, she’s been eyeing your husband for a long time."

Xia Yanbing raised her lips in a slight smile, looking behind Liu Yiren.

Liu Yiren sensed something was wrong, turned around, and was startled to see Duan Yiyi standing behind her.

"You little brat, how dare you talk bad about me behind my back? Itchy skin, huh?"

Duan Yiyi said as she knocked hard on Liu Yiren’s forehead.

"It’s not just a day or two that I’ve had my eyes on hubby, do you think I need you to report? This is hubby’s place, no one’s going to protect you. If you want a beating, just say so."

With that, Duan Yiyi knocked on Liu Yiren’s head again.

Liu Yiren wore a pained expression, rubbing her sore forehead.

"Hubby, beautiful, you two continue your lovey-dovey time," Duan Yiyi said, then grabbed Liu Yiren’s ear, "You little brat, come out here, how dare you snitch on me? Let’s see how I deal with you!"

Qin Yi looked at Xia Yanbing and they shared a knowing smile.

"Looks like the house is going to be lively from now on."

"That’s alright, a lively home is good, it feels full of life."

Qin Yi smiled and said, "Maybe we should hire some help?"

"No need, it’s just a couple of extra dishes."

"I’m just worried you’ll be too tired!"

Xia Yanbing playfully retorted, "I like cooking for you."

"Alright then, head out! Once this dish is done, we can eat."

Xia Yanbing quickly finished the last dish.

"Alright, time to eat!"

Qin Yi said, "Before we eat, I’ve got something to say. Now that you’re all living here, everyone has to pitch in with the chores."

"No problem!" Duan Yiyi readily agreed, "I also want to learn to cook from beautiful, to make meals for hubby in the future."

Lin Hongzhuang glared at Qin Yi, "What did you drug this kid with?"

"Hubby didn’t drug me, I fell for him willingly."

Lin Hongzhuang snickered, "What’s so great about him?"

"Hubby is handsome and has high cultivation, isn’t that enough?"

Duan Yiyi squinted her eyes, "Auntie, you got a problem with hubby?"

Auntie?

Lin Hongzhuan instantly flew into a rage.

"I’m not much older than you, and you call me Auntie?"

Duan Yiyi was curious, "You’re really aging a bit prematurely."

Dare to have a problem with hubby, then you’re my enemy, Duan Yiyi decided to teach Lin Hongzhuang a lesson.

"You little punk, what did you say?"

Duan Yiyi sweetly smiled and said, "Called you old!"

Lin Hongzhuang was so angry her teeth hurt, "You little brat, believe it or not, I’ll kick you out?"

Duan Yiyi dismissively said, "The only ones who have the right to kick me out are hubby, beautiful, and Wan’er. Who are you?"

"That’s right, what gives you the right to kick Yiyi out, who do you think you are?"

Liu Yiren stood firmly on Duan Yiyi’s side at this moment.

Lin Hongzhuang was grinding her teeth in anger, "I told you, beautiful is my best friend, do I have the right to kick you out?"

Duan Yiyi looked at Xia Yanbing, "Beautiful, you need to be careful! Beware of fire, theft, and best friends."

"Yiyi’s right," Liu Yiren chimed in.

Qin Yi and Xia Yanbing exchanged a look, couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Looks like Qin Yi was right, this house is going to be lively from now on.
