"Open the door," Qi Chengzhi said, as if he didn't understand Qi Chengji's hint.
Qi Chengji didn't say anything more. He opened the door and walked in first.
Old Mrs. Qi didn't say that Qi Chengzhi was going to bring his girlfriend here. She was worried that Yu Keyao was here and was afraid of causing an embarrassing situation. She only hoped that Yu Keyao could leave before dinner.
Therefore, the old lady had been hinting to Yu Keyao intentionally or unintentionally. On the surface, she was chatting with Yu Keyao and caring about her physical condition and so on, but in fact, she was driving her away. Ordinary people would understand and leave, but Yu Keyao didn't seem to understand. She stuck her butt on the sofa and didn't get up.
Besides, she didn't know what was wrong with Xia Wenna. She clearly knew that Qi Chengzhi had a girlfriend, but she still insisted on introducing a girl to him. Wasn't she preparing to break them up?
Or did Qi Zhongliang and Xia Wenna's old habits come back again? They looked down on the girl's ordinary family background and had to find a suitable one for Qi Chengzhi?
In the past, the old lady hated the couple for this. They didn't listen to her and always talked nonsense. The old lady was so angry that she didn't say anything. She never gave the family bracelet to Xia Wenna.
The old lady could only ask Qi Chengji to go out and explore. If Qi Chengzhi came with his girlfriend, he could say hello to them and be mentally prepared.
At this moment, hearing the sound of the door opening, the old lady immediately ran to the door. Seeing Qi Chengji walking in front, she asked, "Where is he?"
Qi Chengji scratched his nose with his fingertips. He really didn't know how to tell the old lady. What if she was provoked?
When he was about to give the old lady a warning, Qi Chengzhi had already come in with Song Yu.
"Grandma." Qi Chengzhi called.
The old lady looked over excitedly, but her expression froze. She adjusted the frame of her glasses and looked at Song Yu carefully. Then she asked strangely, "Isn't this Song girl?"
Song Yu swallowed nervously and said in a low voice without much confidence, "Grandma."
But the voice that came out of her mouth was not as calm as she imagined. It was obviously trembling.
"How did you …" The old lady's eyes fell on their clasped hands and suddenly understood.
Her excitement immediately disappeared, and her heart was cold.
"You two are …" The old lady's gaze shifted back and forth between the two's tightly held hands and faces.
"Grandma." Qi Chengji supported the old lady. "Let's go in first."
"Ouch! Ouch! "The old lady pressed her forehead." Why does my head hurt so much now? "
Hearing the commotion coming from the entrance, everyone was still wondering what was going on when they saw the old lady being supported by Qi Chengji. When they looked again, they saw Qi Chengzhi coming in with Song Yu.
Xia Wenna's expression changed. She didn't expect that Qi Chengzhi had left just now to fetch Song Yu.
Qi Chengyue's expression became extremely ugly. His eyes were wide open, and the whites of his eyes were visible as he glared at Song Yu.
How dare she come here!
How thick-skinned!
But the one who was most shocked was Yu Keyao.
"Cousin?" Yu Keyao's mouth was agape and she couldn't stop trembling. She stared at Song Yu in disbelief, her gaze finally landing on their tightly clasped hands.
She remembered that Qi Chengzhi had said that he had a girlfriend.
She also remembered that night in Dynasty, when she saw Qi Chengzhi with Song Yu's family. She thought it was a coincidence, but now she knew that it was not a coincidence.
From the moment Song Yu opened the door of the room where they had dinner, to the moment Qi Chengzhi followed the Song family to the door of Dynasty to smoke, to seeing Song Yu's family take a taxi in the cold wind, it was never a coincidence.
Yu Keyao hid her hands in the hem of her skirt and clenched her fists.
How could it be Song Yu?
The Song family was finished!
At this moment, Song Yu had nothing!
How could she lose to Song Yu!
She remembered Liang Lihua's words. At that time, Song Yu was only engaged to Qi Chengji, and the Song family was so overshadowed. If she was with Qi Chengzhi, would the Song family make a comeback?
She didn't want Song Yu to take her position at all. Yu Keyao's eyes were fixed on Song Yu's face.
When she first heard the news, she was too angry to pay attention. But now she saw Song Yu's eyes were full of love, his cheeks were red, and his lips were still swollen. She didn't know what they had done outside.
That was what she wanted to do with Qi Chengzhi from the moment she met him!
Song Yu just glanced at Yu Keyao indifferently. Suddenly, she felt that this woman was no threat to her at all, and all her thoughts were on the elders of the Qi family.
"Chengzhi." Qi Zhongliang said with a sullen face.
But Qi Chengzhi didn't give him a chance to continue. He held Song Yu's hand tighter and said lightly, "Song Yu, you used to be my sister-in-law, and now you are my fiancée."
"…"
When he said this, no one could say anything for a moment, and no one could think of how to answer him.
However, everyone's face was very gloomy.
Qi Zhongliang's face was livid. He didn't even look at Song Yu. Instead, he looked like he wanted to beat Qi Chengzhi up. Xia Wenna's expression was complicated. She didn't agree, but she was also disappointed. She looked at Song Yu, pursed her lips, and shook her head.
Old Master Qi snorted coldly and howled in a hoarse voice, "What the hell are you doing!"
The old lady sighed and was embarrassed to say something.
Song Yu held Qi Chengzhi's hand, quietly moved closer to him, and pressed her hand against his arm.
She didn't expect Qi Chengzhi to introduce her like this. Just now, when he told the neighbors outside that she was a girlfriend with the premise of marriage, Song Yu thought he was just saying it to make it sound better and attract the other party's attention.
But in front of her family, he directly introduced her as his fiancée. Song Yu couldn't help but look down at the rings on her left hand.
Qi Chengzhi's intentions were far more serious than she had imagined.
She looked up at Qi Chengzhi's handsome side profile, and at this moment, his expression was particularly cold and serious. Although he didn't look at her, he held her tightly, which made her feel at ease.
Facing the speechlessness of his family, Qi Chengzhi curled the corner of his mouth, and his low voice sounded a little more unbridled. "Don't let the goodies flow to others!"
Song Yu: "…"
She was a little touched just now, but now she was speechless because of his words.
Qi Zhongliang stood up quickly. How many years had it been since he had such a gloomy expression towards Qi Chengzhi?
He had always been very confident in this eldest son of his, and had never interfered with any of Qi Chengzhi's decisions. In the end, he did something so unethical today!
"You come with me!" Qi Zhongliang was so angry that he couldn't keep his voice down and shouted loudly, causing everyone's ears to buzz.
Qi Chengzhi didn't listen and stood where he was, not leaving Song Yu alone.
Song Yu squeezed his thin palm and whispered, "You go. I can stay here alone."
Seeing that Qi Chengzhi didn't move, and Qi Zhongliang had already walked out of the living room, she froze there, not knowing whether to go forward or retreat. For a moment, the situation was awkward again.
Old Madam Qi let out an "aiyo" and said, "You go! What's wrong with leaving the Song girl here? Besides, I'm here to watch. How can I let someone eat her up? "
"Go ahead." Song Yu urged him again in a low voice.
Only then did Qi Chengzhi follow Qi Zhongliang, and before leaving, he squeezed her hand.
Other than Qi Zhongxun and Guan Liya, who had problems with the angle, everyone else saw it clearly.
It was the first time they saw Qi Chengzhi treat a woman like a treasure, to the extent that he was even guarding against his own family. Everyone was surprised.
After Qi Chengzhi left, Song Yu could only stand there awkwardly.
"Song girl, sit down," Old Madam Qi said.
But at this moment, Song Yu felt uncomfortable sitting anywhere.
Whether it was beside Xia Wenna or Yu Keyao.
A small head poked out from the kitchen door. Qi Youxuan was eating watermelon in the kitchen just now. When he heard the noise outside, his grandpa seemed to be quite angry, so he didn't dare to go out.
At this moment, there was no sound outside, so Qi Youxuan boldly came out to check out the situation.
In the end, he was surprised to find Song Yu standing there, but he looked quite lonely.
Qi Youxuan turned back to the kitchen and ran to the living room with the half-eaten small watermelon.
"Auntie!" Qi Youxuan shouted happily. One of his chubby arms was wrapped around the watermelon, and when he ran, some of the watermelon juice splashed on his chest and sleeves. The other chubby hand was holding a spoon, waving it at Song Yu as he ran.
When he ran to Song Yu, he stabbed the spoon into the watermelon, and the small hand that was holding the spoon held Song Yu's hand. "Auntie, when did you come?"
"I just arrived." Song Yu saw Qi Youxuan. It was rare that there was someone in this family who sincerely welcomed her.
"Auntie, come and sit." Qi Youxuan looked around. He originally wanted to bring Song Yu to sit next to Qi Chenglin, but there was no space. In the end, he could only pull her to sit where Qi Zhongliang was originally sitting.
Yu Keyao looked at Song Yu with a gloomy face. When she came, why didn't she see Qi Youxuan being so warm to her!
The way he called her 'Auntie' made her feel sick to death. She really wanted to go and seal that brat's mouth.
"Auntie, do you want to eat watermelon?" Qi Youxuan scooped a spoon of watermelon. Although he said it to Song Yu, the spoon was aimed at him. He was really afraid that Song Yu would nod and say that he wanted to eat it. He didn't really want to give the watermelon away.
"No, you eat it." Song Yu smiled slightly, which made Qi Youxuan feel relieved.
"You eat less. You won't be able to eat in a while." Qi Chenglin couldn't help but educate his son again.
At this time, Old Lady Qi was entangled in the matter of Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu, so she didn't have the mood to care about Qi Chenglin.
The old lady was now very confused. It was rare for Qi Chengzhi to have a girlfriend. She still wanted to get married. If it went well, it wouldn't be long before she could hold a grandson. But it was Song Yu who married her brother's ex-fiancee. What was this?
The old lady didn't know what to say. Qi Zhongliang's roar came from the study: "What are you thinking in your head! She used to be your brother's fiancee. Are there no women in the world? What the hell is wrong with you! "
Thinking that Yu Keyao was still here, the Qi family's faces became awkward.
"Keyao." Xia Wenna turned her head with a bad look. "It's really not convenient to keep you for dinner today."
Even if Song Yu's identity was exposed in the future, it would not be hidden. With Qi Chengzhi's character, it would not be so easy to separate them. But after all, this was a family scandal, and they didn't want Yu Keyao, an outsider, to hear it.
It was not that Yu Keyao didn't understand the previous hint of Old Lady Qi, but she pretended to be confused.
Now that Xia Wenna had made it so clear, Yu Keyao could only hide her full of unwillingness. She stood up with a smile and brushed the hair beside her ear with her fingertips. She behaved very generously. "I understand. It's not very appropriate for me to stay here."
Xia Wenna didn't know what to say. Her upbringing made it impossible for her to say anything bad about Song Yu in front of Yu Keyao.
Besides, Song Yu was the daughter of her friend.
After sending Yu Keyao off, Xia Wenna returned to her seat, but this time she sat on the opposite side, beside Qi Chenglin. Only Song Yu and Qi Youxuan were left, and they seemed especially lonely here.
At this time, Song Yu was very grateful to Qi Youxuan. Although he was young, he accompanied her so that she would not be completely lonely and helpless.
"Song Yu." After a moment of silence, Xia Wenna spoke.
She pursed her lips and bit the inside of her lips. "Last time I saw you in Dynasty, we didn't have a good chat. How are your parents?"
"They are very good. Now they are used to living an ordinary life. Life has its own advantages. Now they don't have to worry about the company, they don't have to go to social events, and they don't have to calculate so much. My father has nothing to do at home to study chess records and go out for a walk to chat with the neighbors. He is more energetic and younger than before. "She was just a little uncomfortable when she first went bankrupt, but after so many years, she had let it go.
"Is your mother … still angry with me?"
Song Yu thought for a moment and said, "Not really. She has calmed down now. After all, such a big family business suddenly disappeared. Few people can stay calm. In fact, she thought it through later. My mother also knows that it is natural that no one helped. What's more, the Qi family also has their own considerations. The Song family is a big hole that can't be fixed. Even my mother's relatives stood by and quickly cut off relations with us. As for others, we can't say anything wrong. "
"Song Yu." Xia Wenna lowered her head and thought for a moment. She looked up at Song Yu. "Whether you believe it or not, I have the intention to help you. I introduced Chengzhi and Yu Keyao on a blind date in the hope that the Yu family can rely on the Qi family. As in-laws, I also have the right to say a few words and ask the Yu family to help the Song family. "
"I feel very sorry for what happened to your family. But I can't agree with the matter between you and Chengzhi. You also understand the reason. You were originally engaged to the younger son, but now you are with the older son. How can people say that? Even if you are not related by blood, this … is too messy! "
"What's messy? I brought Song Yu back today to let Grandpa and Grandma meet. I didn't think about whether you guys would agree or not. "Qi Chengzhi, who had already finished talking with Qi Zhongliang, walked out with Qi Zhongliang one after the other.
Qi Zhongliang's face was livid. It was obvious that they had not reached an agreement.
However, Qi Chengzhi looked calm as if nothing had happened.
He walked straight to Song Yu. When he looked at Song Yu, his originally calm eyes immediately became gentle.
Xia Wenna saw it clearly and was also shocked. She didn't expect Qi Chengzhi to treat Song Yu so specially. She had never seen such a gentle look in her son's eyes.
Song Yu, who was a little uneasy just now, immediately calmed down after seeing Qi Chengzhi. Now that he met his gentle eyes, his heart was warmed.
At this moment, he really wanted to lean on him.
Qi Chengzhi's eyes fell on Qi Youxuan again. He no longer had the gentleness when he looked at Song Yu. He just narrowed his eyes, grabbed Qi Youxuan's collar, and lifted him up.
"Aiya, uncle, what are you doing!" Qi Youxuan was eating a watermelon when he was suddenly lifted up. He nervously hugged the watermelon with his little hands and held the spoon, intending to attack Qi Chengzhi's hand.
Before the spoon touched Qi Chengzhi, he put Qi Youxuan on Xia Wenna's lap and squeezed himself between Song Yu and Xia Wenna, separating the two of them.
Xia Wenna pursed her lips. Was he afraid that she would bully Song Yu?
Did he need to protect him so tightly?!
As soon as Qi Chengzhi sat down, the sofa seemed a little crowded. Because Qi Youxuan's body was small, he didn't take up much space, so Qi Chengzhi forced himself in.
Xia Wenna could only move to the side.
Leaning against Qi Chengzhi again, Song Yu sat more steadily. She didn't know what to say, so she lowered her head. A fair and elegant hand reached over and covered the hand on her knee.
His hand was well-defined, thin, and good-looking. Such a hand would definitely be very elegant when playing a musical instrument.
He clenched his long fingers, and four slightly rough fingertips drilled into her palm. His thumb gently rubbed the back of her smooth hand.
The familiar warmth and dependability made Song Yu secretly hold his hand.
"Grandpa, Grandma, I brought Song Yu back today to pay a visit to you." Qi Chengzhi looked at the two elders and said indifferently, "If you don't agree, then there will be no one to give birth to my child in the future."
"This …" The old lady held her heart and couldn't say anything.
Her biggest wish now was to see all her grandchildren get married and each of them give birth to a few great-grandchildren for her. She really couldn't be any better.
However, her grandson's words meant that he had to have Song Yu.
If she didn't give birth to his child, he wouldn't find someone else. What should she do?
Old Lady Qi was very conflicted.
Old Master Qi looked at Qi Zhongliang, then at Qi Chengzhi, then at Song Yu, and finally at Qi Chengji. He snorted and said, "I'm going out for a walk!"
What a mess!
"Chengzhi, how could you say that to Grandpa and Grandma!" Xia Wenna said unhappily, "Are you threatening us with the child?"
"Mom, you can understand it that way." Qi Chengzhi pulled Song Yu to stand up. "It's not easy for me to find a woman I like. It's hard to say if I can meet someone I like in the future. If I could make do with her, I would have done so long ago. I wouldn't have to wait until now. "
Qi Chengzhi paused and looked at the old lady meaningfully. "Grandma, I'm 34 this year. Oh, no, it's already past the Spring Festival, so I should be 35 this year. If everything goes well, I'll be almost 40 when I get married and have children. If I delay any longer, I don't know if I'll be able to give birth to a child."
"Ouch!" The old lady held her heart and spread on the sofa with a painful expression. She turned her face sideways and didn't look at anyone.
