Mrs. Qin kept a stern face and didn’t speak, her hands constantly at work.
Luo Xuping swiftly blocked Mrs. Qin’s path, clearly indicating he wouldn’t let her go without an explanation.
Mrs. Qin, still in a fit of anger, slapped Luo Xuping, but it barely felt like a tickle to him.
"What did your sister tell you? Didn’t she say the two children shouldn’t be together? Why are you so thoughtless!" Mrs. Qin pointed at Luo Xuping and scolded.
Luo Xuping scratched his head, frowning, "I’m not thoughtless. I thought I’d hold one in each hand, but who knew they’d link hands as soon as I turned my head? Mother, what’s the harm in holding hands?"
Seeing Luo Xuping’s clueless expression, Mrs. Qin sighed. In the past, she was worried Luo Xuping, being young, wouldn’t handle information well, so she didn’t tell him. But now, at this age, he should know. Otherwise, if he doesn’t take it seriously, trouble could arise eventually.
It wasn’t Mrs. Qin making a fuss over nothing; kids being mischievous, always bump into things, sotis even hurting themselves without realizing it. Just thinking about it is terrifying!
Seeing Mango outside, sitting on a stone bench crying, with Sister-in-law Mo softly comforting her and Zhuangzhuang hovering around, Mrs. Qin pulled Luo Xuping into the inner room.
"Strawberry and Mango’s blood can be fatal to each other. If you want specifics, ask your sister; I don’t understand." Mrs. Qin said in a low, sorrowful voice.
Upon hearing this, Luo Xuping was startled and asked, "Mother, you said their blood can kill each other?"
Mrs. Qin nodded.
No wonder Mother reacted so strongly, was so furious!
In the past, the little ones never demanded to be with their playmates, so such a situation never occurred. But as they grow, they will certainly have more questions and curiosity, and might experint with so things...
Luo Xuping broke into a cold sweat, raising a hand to give himself a slap, which made Mrs. Qin feel a pang of heartache, yet she couldn’t find the words.
"Don’t tell anyone about this, not even Brother Tianji. Since it’s a family affair, the fewer who know, the better protection for Strawberry and Mango. I trust you’re tight-lipped, rember that!"
Luo Xuping didn’t need her reminder; he already engraved it in his heart.
"Mother, isn’t my sister a doctor? Can’t she treat them?" Luo Xuping asked.
At this, Mrs. Qin sighed, "Didn’t you see your sister running around everywhere? You think she’s playing? Your brother too, both of them have been working tirelessly these years, nobody’s been idle. We don’t know how hard it truly is, all we can do is ensure things at ho are in order."
Luo Xuping hung his head. Mrs. Qin knew she wasn’t capable, only doing what she could, but he? What could he do? Not only was he of no help, but he almost brought danger to the two little ones!
Then he rembered what Brother Tianji said about taking the political path. Perhaps it really was good; with power in hand, at least he wouldn’t need to beg. He lacked other talents, but if he could help his brother and sister even a little, it would probably be in this field.
After this incident, Luo Xuping finally decided to take this path. Compared to others, his starting point on this road was slightly higher, since his brother and sister weren’t ordinary people. As long as he applied himself, he would surely achieve sothing in the future.
"By the way, Mother, what did my sister go out for so early?" Luo Xuping suddenly rembered. Today, the little ones didn’t have to go to daycare, so if Sis had no engagents, she’d definitely be at ho with them.
Mrs. Qin walked outside, not fully trusting just the two helpers watching over them. She needed her own eyes present.
"Your sister said she had sothing to do and left with those two elderly folks," Mrs. Qin said as she stepped out.
At this point, Beisitian and the others had already arrived at the Qin Family’s reserved hot spring conference center. Inside, there were hot spring saunas and buffet als, all part of a four-star establishnt.
This hot spring mory center was located beyond the already operational Third Ring, established in recent years. Its owner, an overseas Chinese, enjoyed so policy advantages.
Although the location was remote, the environnt was very beautiful, attracting many enterprises and institutions to hold etings or celebrations here willingly.
Vehicles continued driving into the hot spring mory center, but passersby weren’t surprised since institutions frequently rented the venue for events.
However, this ti seed to involve wealthier enterprises, judging by the number and quality of vehicles, much more than usual.
The venue, naturally, was booked by Qin Youwei. Yet, to show his magnanimity, he wouldn’t trouble Qin Xinyu at such a ti, so when Qin Xinyu and his companions arrived, they received the grandest welco.
Indeed, they were welcod, treated like guests. Although not exactly difficult, it certainly was a subtle display of authority.
Qin Xinyu sneered internally, hoping his uncle could still laugh later.
Qin Xinyu hadn’t brought many people, only twelve, all holding certain power within the Qin Family, aning they had certain voices in matters.
Qin Youwei’s side had long prepared for this, with two Great Powers already settled in, now enjoying life, one soaking in the hot springs, the other indulging in gourt food.
Qin Xinyu glanced at the ti, wondering when Doctor Bei and others would arrive, as there was no update from those waiting at the gate.
"Xinyu, has Doctor Bei been held up by sothing?" Qin Youwei asked with a smile.
Although neither side had publicly fallen out, both understood each other’s intentions, so there was no need for disguise. Thus, Qin Youwei remained calm at the prospect of facing Beisitian.
Qin Xinyu forced a smile, "Who is Doctor Bei? It’s already generous of her to spare so ti."
Qin Youwei raised an eyebrow, "Oh? You an Doctor Bei doesn’t find it worthwhile to pay attention to small families like ours?"
The Qin Family mbers behind him imdiately glanced over. So had previously supported Qin Xinyu, their current stance unclear.
Qin Xinyu smirked, "Uncle, you always like to slander people with words, your ability to twist facts is first-rate. Is it wrong for to say that Doctor Bei is a Great Power and thus busy? How can a simple statent be turned into so much fuss by you? Doesn’t living like that tire you out?"
Qin Youwei hadn’t expected that this young Qin Xinyu would be so blunt, especially since everyone here was dignified. Even during verbal sparring, one shouldn’t be this direct and blunt; speaking more subtly was considered skillful. Clearly, he was still just a wet-behind-the-ears kid!
Qin Youwei’s face turned slightly grim, "Xinyu, let advise you, at your age, you should be polite to your elders. After all, half of the Qin Family consists of your elders. Being disrespectful like this won’t win hearts."
Qin Xinyu coldly smirked, seeing soone approaching. He lifted his spirits and asked, "Have they arrived?"
The person approached, frowning and shaking their head, indicating that it was still early. Could it be that they weren’t coming?
