Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived-Chapter 276 - : Isn’t that the Duke?
Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Isn’t that the Duke?
As the dishes were served, the three began to eat.
Due to the overpowering silence, Feng Jinglei casually brought up a topic, “Ms. Gu, where are you from?”
Gu Qiangwei looked up and glanced at Feng Jinglei, “Jingcheng.”
“Previously, my wedding photos were also shot at ‘Weimei’. Back then, you didn’t seem to be with this company?”
“Yes, I came to ‘Weimei’ just half a month ago.”
“Oh.” Feng Jinglei seemed to have a good impression of Gu Qiangwei, her gaze falling on the name tag on her chest, “Your name is Gu Weiwei?”
“Yes.”
The two conversed agreeably, while Qin Feimo, sitting beside them, ate his meal slowly, not joining in the conversation and looking completely like an outsider.
Unexpectedly, he looked up and caught sight of a figure walking towards the entrance of the restaurant.
At that moment, Feng Jinglei, seeing him remain silent, also turned to look at him.
When she noticed his gaze fixated on someone not far away, she instinctively followed his line of sight.
“Isn’t that Sijue?”
Feng Jinglei’s casual remark caused Gu Qiangwei, who was across the table eating, to pause, look up at Feng Jinglei, and naturally followed her gaze as she turned her head.
At the entrance of the restaurant, Qin Sijue walked in with an icy expression, his face as frosty as an iceberg.
Seeing that familiar face, Gu Qiangwei paused for two seconds, then quickly turned her head away, withdrawing her gaze and bowing her head low.
At this point, Qin Feimo had already stood up and was making his way towards Qin Sijue nearby.
Seeing this, Feng Jinglei naturally got up and followed.
“Sijue.”
Just as Qin Sijue was about to leave, he stopped upon hearing the familiar voice, turning to see Qin Feimo approaching.
He did not speak, merely staring expressionlessly at Qin Feimo.
Qin Feimo frowned slightly, clearly somewhat concerned for his cousin.

“Where have you been lately?”
“The company.” The reply was terse and to the point.
“Grandma is very worried about you.”
“I’m fine, just busy with work.”
“If you’re really fine, then don’t let the family worry about you.”
Qin Sijue appeared irritated and seemed not to want to continue the conversation. He turned his gaze and glanced at Feng Jinglei, “Are you and cousin-in-law here for dinner?”
“Yes.” Qin Feimo, resigned, knew he was deliberately changing the subject, “You too?”
“Yes.”
“Join us!”
“I don’t want to disturb you and cousin-in-law.”
“No, it’s fine. We’re not alone, there’s also…” Feng Jinglei turned her head, intending to mention that they were accompanied by a makeup artist, but when she turned, Gu Weiwei, who had been sitting there, was nowhere to be seen.
She frowned in confusion but didn’t think much of it, guessing that she might have just gone to the restroom.
“Join us! Actually, I have some things to discuss with you.”
After finishing his words, Qin Feimo directly went back to their original seats with his wife.
Watching the two figures, Qin Sijue was silent for a couple of seconds before, without further refusal, following them.
Upon returning to their seats and not seeing Gu Weiwei, Qin Feimo also frowned in puzzlement but said nothing more.
Instead, he looked up at his cousin, “Sijue, Grandma is really worried about you. These last few days, she’s also been at odds with Grandpa. When you have time, you should see her and put her mind at ease.”
Qin Sijue remained silent throughout.
By then, Gu Qiangwei had already gotten up and hidden in the restroom.
About five minutes later, she cautiously returned to the restaurant.
However, glancing at the familiar spot from afar, not only had Qin Sijue not left, but he was also sitting in the spot next to hers!
Although it was not a direct view of his face, the tall and upright figure was all too familiar to her.
