Chapter 492: Chapter 491: Mianmian, What Do You Like About Qimo?
(Extra) Chapter 492: Chapter 491: Mianmian, What Do You Like About Qimo?
(Extra) Qi Zhen thought hard, and finally remembered.
Back then, she had gone to Yangfan Hotel where, in the piano room of the main building, she had seen a girl playing the piano.
That girl really played a wonderful tune, and she still remembered the melody to this day.
Who would have thought that the girl playing the piano was her own son’s girlfriend.
If she had known earlier, she would have invited the girl home no matter what.
Staying in a hotel is so inconvenient, living at home, she could make her delicious food every three days!
“Lao Xiao, I’m telling you, our son might have found a treasure!” Qi Zhen excitedly clutched Xiao Huazun’s hand, “How on earth did he do it?
That girl isn’t stupid, how did he pursue her?
I always feel a bit uneasy…”
Xiao Huazun wasn’t as perceptive and reversed the grip on her hand, “Maybe it’s the girl who pursued our son.
Qimo’s qualifications aren’t bad either…”
Ye Jinwen from the side: Qimo’s qualifications aren’t bad?
What are theirs, then?
Ye Jinwen explained while rubbing his forehead, “It’s Qimo who pursued Lu Mian!”
“See, I knew it at a glance!” Qi Zhen sighed, “But with Qimo’s EQ, he wouldn’t know how to pursue a girl at all!”
Ye Jinwen: Actually…
Little Mianmian’s EQ is even lower than Qimo’s.
Xiao Huazun comforted Qi Zhen for a while, and in the end, Qi Zhen, remembering that she hadn’t prepared the dishes in advance today, reined in her emotions and went to the kitchen to instruct the servants to prepare hastily.
Her instructions took more than ten minutes.
After she left, the chefs and servants couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Our lady has never been this angry before, and it just had to be Miss Lu who ran into her, such a big misunderstanding.”
“It’s a good thing it’s a misunderstanding; otherwise, who would inherit the excellent genes of the Xiao Family and the Yun Family?”
“Speaking of which, what’s Miss Lu’s background?
There doesn’t seem to be a Lu family in Jinjing…”
“No matter what her background is, the lady’s attitude is clear.
Who would dare neglect her?”
aEUR”aEUR”
On this side of the estate, Xiao Qimo was walking with Lu Mian.
The estate was large, and the landscaping had been designed by a top-tier landscape artist.
Even in winter, it was very beautiful.
The air here was good, and Lu Mian felt exceptionally relaxed in both body and mind since arriving.
Having just gone through that farce, Xiao Qimo felt that his mother hadn’t recovered from the incident and decided to take Lu Mian out for a walk, apologizing as they went, “Sorry for scaring you just now.”
“Not at all,” Lu Mian chuckled lightly, her almond-shaped eyes curving, “I always thought your mother was a gentle and dignified mother.
I didn’t expect her to be quite cute.”
“…” The man was somewhat speechlessaEUR”that was not cute at all but pure drama.
Only in the eyes of his father would she seem cute.
However, his mother had also never shown such a side to outsiders.
Today was…
truly unexpected.
“I am innocent with Yun Sang,” Xiao Qimo still felt uneasy and added, worried that Lu Mian’s personality might lead to misunderstandings.
With her usual approach, something could explode at any moment.
As Xiao Qimo worried about this, the girl beside him suddenly stopped, turned to look at him very seriously.
Xiao Qimo’s temple twitched suddenly, with a bad premonition.
Then he heard the girl’s somewhat hesitant voice ask, “What about…
the future then?”
“…”
The future?
There was no future between them!
Nor had there ever been a past!
Xiao Qimo pinched the bridge of his nose hard, closed his eyes, sighed helplessly, and emphasized once more, “Never.”
Only then did Lu Mian reveal a bright smile and nodded.
The man didn’t notice the look of relief on her face.
The two continued walking forward.
Xiao Qimo unintentionally explained, “The reason my mom was so excited today is because in our generation of the Xiao family, there’s only me.
And from the Yun family side, there’s only Yun Sang.”
Lu Mian found it somewhat unbelievable, “I thought, for families like yours, you would have a large number of descendants spreading far and wide.”
“It might be possible for other families, but not for mine,” Xiao Qimo’s tone carried a distant quality, and his steps within the estate became somewhat heavy.
The Xiao family had a large property and business, but interpersonal relationships were surprisingly simple.
Apart from an uncle who was expelled from the family, only his grandparents, his parents, and he remained.
As someone who had been affected by the word “favoritism” for twenty years, Lu Mian liked this kind of familyaEUR”simple, trouble-free, without favoritism or rivalry.
“Your family is so nice,” Lu Mian said, exhaling these five words.
Xiao Qimo nodded, “It is nice.

You’ll discover that for yourself eventually.”

It was soon time for lunch.
Although the meal wasn’t prepared by Mrs.
Xiao, she had specially instructed it to be made to Lu Mian’s liking, with all the dishes and flavors that she preferred.
Lu Mian felt somewhat overwhelmed by such enthusiasm and kept saying thank you over and over.
Qi Zhen finally had the chance to take a good look at the girl before him.
She was exceptionally beautiful and the more he looked, the more intriguing she became.
Looking at her again and again, he even began to feel a sense of familiarity.
“Mianmian, may I call you that?”
Lu Mian nodded her head.
Carrying on towards the dining room with Lu Mian, Qi Zhen continued to explain today’s surprise events.
All that warmth stored up over the years, as if having nowhere to go, finally found an outlet.
As for the four men she had neglected.
Xiao Huazun, Xiao Qimo, Yun Sang, and Ye Jinwen had no significant family status and followed behind.
Qi Zhen invited Lu Mian to sit beside her without any hesitation.
Xiao Qimo sat next to Lu Mian, and even sent meaningful glances to remind Qi Zhen, “She’s introverted and starts off a bit distant, so don’t scare her.”
Qi Zhen gave an OK gesture.
But the action of serving dishes to Lu Mian never stopped, even continuously urging Xiao Qimo to also help serve more dishes to Lu Mian.
Her plate quickly piled up like a small mountain.
Unaccustomed to this type of family interaction, she felt somewhat out of place, spending most of the time eating with her head down, occasionally looking up to answer questions from Xiao’s parents.
In any other family, this attitude would surely be criticized as rude and lacking manners.
But this was the Xiao family.
Qi Zhen didn’t mind at all, on the contrary, she found herself wondering even more how such a pretty girl, who plays the piano so well, ended up with Xiao Qimo?
“Mianmian, what is it that you saw in Qimo?” Qi Zhen couldn’t help but ask.
She was genuinely curious.
Xiao Qimo wanted to know too.
He thought that after all this time, their relationship had made significant progress and that in little rascal’s heart, there must be some special fondness for him.
Everyone at the table looked towards Lu Mian.
Lu Mian, however, replied at her own pace, tilting her head to look at Qi Zhen with genuine sincerity, “He has a good mother.”
That’s what she said.
The atmosphere at the dining table livened up instantly because of her words.
Ye Jinwen raised his thumb with a laugh, “Little Mianmian, we were wrong about you; your EQ is totally up to par!”
Complimenting the future mother-in-law came so naturally to her, yet none of it was used on brother Qi.
Qi Zhen instantly smiled from ear to ear.
Only Xiao Qimo, with his elegantly handsome face, slowly turned…
dark.
