Chapter 825: Chapter 742: I Only Flirt With You (Second Update)

"Hello, Grandpa Qin!"

"Ah! Hello! I was in such a hurry today and didn’t prepare a gift. I’ll definitely send one another day!"

"You’re too kind!" Li Si hurriedly waved her hand, not wanting to accept anything from the Qin family.

"Sitting beside me is my granddaughter Qin Qiu! I noticed you were talking earlier; you must have known each other for a while. Young people should keep in touch!"

Qin Qiu or Qin Qiu?!

Li Si smiled lightly on the outside but inwardly grumbled, realizing Qin Xin’s new name turned out to be Qin Qiu! No matter which Qiu it was, the Qin family names were always odd! No wonder they had a background in tomb raiding, carrying that earthy scent.

Upon hearing Mr. Qin Sr. say this, Li Si smiled quietly without speaking; she didn’t want to stay in touch with Qin Xin!

Qin Xin also only smiled silently, performing her noble lady act.

Mr. Leng Sr. subtly sensed something. He waved his hand, saying, "Li Si! You and your mother should leave first! Don’t worry about us!"

"Okay! But Grandpa, you can’t drink any alcohol! Dad will supervise!" Li Si cheekily glanced at the glass of white wine in front of Mr. Leng Sr.

Mr. Leng Sr.’s serious face softened with a faint smile, "Alright! I’ll listen to you!"

Leng Qiankai also chuckled, but recalling the earlier verbal conflict between Ouyang Yan and Li Si, he quickly whispered to Li Si:

"Li Si! Don’t take Mochen’s mother too seriously; she’s going through menopause. You guys go have fun!"

Understanding that Leng Qiankai was mindful of everyone at the table, and his last comment was directed at her, Leng Mochen, and Buding, Li Si nodded knowingly:

"Dad! Don’t worry! We’re leaving!"

Li Si said her goodbyes to everyone present and turned to leave.

Mr. Qin Sr. gave Qin Xin a meaningful look before turning to Mr. Leng Sr., laughing: "I originally thought when we were young, both of us had sons, and a match couldn’t be made, so perhaps with our grandchildren’s generation, but now it seems it’s a no-go?"

Mr. Leng Sr. replied lightly, "My great-grandson is over a year old, you can keep trying!"

Mr. Qin Sr. pointed at him, "Haha! You!"

Everyone at the table burst into laughter, amid truths and half-truths, while Mr. Leng Sr.’s expression remained calm.

Qin Xin’s smile stiffened, attending Zheng Huanxue’s wedding today was not only due to her private connections but also because her grandfather had some relations with Zheng Huanxue’s father.

She never imagined Leng Mochen’s grandfather and her own grandfather were old acquaintances, and even more shockingly, they once considered a match.

If she hadn’t wasted so much time outside, would she have been destined for Leng Mochen?

Once things start to unfold, it creates a tumultuous mess inside...

Li Si was unaware of these events afterward. She and Ouyang Yan left together, but the warmth from earlier had faded.

Ouyang Yan contemplated how to approach Mochen later, hoping he would stand up for her.

But considering Mochen’s tendency to forget about his mother now that he has a wife, she felt uncertain and guilty, unsure who Mochen might side with.

Secretly guessing if she confronted Li Si, she’d likely lose, making her even more disheartened.

Meanwhile, Li Si wasn’t thinking about any of that. She was eager to get out of there and return home to set off for fun. Who cares about Qin Xin or Qin Qiu?

However, about the connection between Mr. Qin Sr. and Mr. Leng Sr., she’d definitely have to discuss it thoroughly with Leng Mochen.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law each harbored their thoughts as they returned to Li Si’s home.

Leng Mochen was already prepared, with just a small backpack, while Buding was asleep on the sofa.

Seeing this, Ouyang Yan instinctively became a doting mother, muttering softly: "How can you bring so little when going out? It’s alright for adults, but Buding is still small. Buying things on the spot might be inconvenient.

Don’t rush off yet! Let me pack some more for him! Really, what’s the point of asking that old Qin for leave! No one available at crucial times!"

Ouyang Yan hurried off to the children’s room, putting aside the intentions of complaining to her son.

Li Si helplessly shrugged at Leng Mochen; the two exchanged a look knowing everything that needed packing was done, stored conveniently in the space for carrying.

What’s the point in carting around big bags?

But since Ouyang Yan wanted to fret over this, Li Si chose not to say anything.

She still wanted to see how Ouyang Yan might complain to Leng Mochen!

Noticing something, Leng Mochen pulled her to sit beside him, "Tell me! What observations did you have attending the wedding?"

Li Si stuck her tongue out, "Nothing escapes you! Where should I start? From how Mrs. Leng talked about me and how I countered, or maybe..."

Leng Mochen furrowed his brow, interrupting her, "Focus on the main topics, narrate slowly!"

He sensed something off in Mrs. Leng’s behavior earlier and understood, growing increasingly unhappy.

Why did she dare to speak about Li Si?

Li Si suddenly remembered she hadn’t mentioned a particularly explosive piece of news!

She smiled, lightly clapping her hands and glancing at Buding’s room, whispering: "Alright! Here’s a jaw-dropping piece of news for you!"

"What is it?"

Li Si knew Mrs. Leng might come out at any moment, so she hurriedly leaned close to Leng Mochen’s ear: "Zheng Huanxue’s groom is Zhang Shan’s ex-husband Qiao An!"

Leng Mochen, usually with a composed mask, was visibly surprised, "Qiao An?!"

This news truly caught him off guard!

"Indeed! It’s absolutely true! You know, when Mrs. Leng and I first saw the wedding photos, we were both shocked!

Then during the ceremony, I saw it really was Zhang Shan’s ex-husband! Do you think Zheng Huanxue married him for benefits or for love? Regardless, both options seem unreliable to me!"

"I agree!" Leng Mochen concurred with her view.

Li Si took a sip of water to moisten her dry mouth, quickly continuing: "And guess who else appeared? Qin Xin, along with Mr. Qin Sr.! Qin Xin even deliberately came over to ask why you weren’t there!

Hmph! I told her you were on a business trip! You really do have a knack for attracting attention, keeping folks remembering you deeply!"

Leng Mochen affectionately tapped her cute nose, "I only attract you!"

Li Si hurriedly evaded, "Go away! I’m not messing around! Let’s get back to business! So later I went to call Grandpa and the others to leave, guess what? Mr. Leng Sr. and Mr. Qin Sr. were sitting at the same table, right next to Qin Xin, even introducing us together! Did you know about this?"

Facing Li Si’s eager gaze, Leng Mochen lightly nodded, "I only found out recently!"

Li Si almost swore aloud, feeling a bit resentful, "Why didn’t you tell me? I didn’t know anything! Luckily I reacted quickly and didn’t reveal any flaws!"

Hearing footsteps approaching, Leng Mochen whispered, "I’ll explain it all to you later, calmly!"

At that moment, Ouyang Yan returned carrying a bundle of spare clothes.
