I don't know how long I was in a daze alone. It took a long time before Liu Xinai came back to her senses.
She felt a little thirsty and wanted to get up to get a glass of water.
Going downstairs, she vaguely heard the sound of servants clearing the table, and there seemed to be voices.
"Mr. Qin seems to have had an argument with his wife again today. These dishes were specially prepared but not eaten..."
Liu Xinai paused and stopped at the corner of the stairs, curious about what they would talk about in private.
Then I heard another person say warily: "Shh, keep your voice down. If Mr. Qin hears it, be careful to drive you out like the two people before!"
Liu Xinai was stunned when she heard this, and a flash of confusion quickly flashed in her eyes.
The two people from before?
Qin Yiyan had driven people out before?
Just as Liu Xinai was thinking, she heard the first person who spoke whisper again.
"What are you afraid of? Mr. Qin went upstairs to work, and I didn't say anything bad about my wife. The two people before were just ignorant and thought that Mr. Qin didn't take my wife seriously, so they dared to talk behind her back. Xi, Mr. Qin heard about it again and was driven away. After such a long time, who can’t see that Mr. Qin takes his wife to heart? "
"Although I don't know why the two of them always quarreled when they disagreed, but there was no time when Mr. Qin went out without telling us to take good care of the madam and obey her in everything. The madam is also so easy to get along with, and it has never been a problem. temper……"
"Madam's temper is indeed very good."
The person opposite echoed.
Immediately afterwards, the two people chatted about other topics.
Liu Xinai stood there, but her heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
Is what they just said...all true?
A servant was saying bad things about her behind her back, but Qin Yiyan heard it, and then... was kicked out by him?
No matter how you hear this, it sounds fake...
However, the two servants had no idea she was standing here eavesdropping, and there seemed to be no need to lie.
But that was Qin Yiyan!
How could he be nice to her?
No, it should be said... every time he was nice to her, he did it in front of others and for a purpose.
so……
Liu Xinai couldn't think of an answer and couldn't help but feel a little upset for a moment. She simply stopped thinking about it and turned back upstairs.
But what the two people just said can't be forgotten in their minds.
Whether it's driving people away or telling the servants to take good care of her.
He did it all quietly.
Why?
Liu Xin'ai returned to the room with a heavy heart.
As soon as he opened the door, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure standing beside the bed.
Qin Yiyan had already changed out of his suit, and his hair was slightly damp. It looked like he had just finished washing.
When their eyes met, Liu Xinai's mind suddenly went blank for a moment, and she thought of what the servant had just overheard downstairs.
The atmosphere was inexplicably quiet and awkward.
Perhaps because of the unpleasant experience downstairs just now, Qin Yiyan did not take the initiative to speak.
Liu Xinai watched him skillfully lift the quilt and get into bed, and then began to sit on the edge of the bed and deal with official business on his laptop. She couldn't help but frown slightly.
After pausing for a few seconds, she finally couldn't help but ask: "You today..."
After only saying three words, her hands couldn't help but nervously grasp the hem of her pajamas.
As long as Qin Yiyan stays in this space, she will subconsciously feel nervous.
The traces left on her body from last night have not faded yet. Qin Yiyan actually chose to stay overnight again today. Could it be that he still wanted to...
Just thinking about this possibility, Liu Xinai's body couldn't help but start to stiffen.
Never before had he stayed for two consecutive days.
Because every time they had a relationship, it was not a pleasant experience, and Qin Yiyan might even leave that night.
What's going on today...
Liu Xinai was thinking when she heard——
"Don't be nervous, I'm not interested in you today."
Qin Yiyan seemed to have discovered what she was thinking, and suddenly spoke in a deep voice.
To others, this sentence would sound somewhat provocative.
When Liu Xinai heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at him with some confusion.
If he doesn't do anything... then what is he doing here?
The two of them would start to quarrel as long as they couldn't say a few words together. Could it be that they were here to be unhappy?
While muttering secretly, she turned around and walked towards the bathroom, planning to sleep on the sofa later.
Then as soon as I turned around, I heard——
"Let me inform you."
Qin Yiyan's voice came again.
"My parents are coming to stay tomorrow for a few days. I'm not sure how long it will last, so I'll be back for a few days. You should know how to cooperate."
Liu Xinai paused, feeling a little reluctant in her heart.
It’s time to start acting again…
But as the "good daughter-in-law" of the Qin family, she couldn't say no.
No matter what Qin Yiyan did in his daily life, he still visited his father.
Almost three days a week, he would spend an hour or two with his father, chat with him, and report to him on Qingze's recent management of the company.
It is precisely because of this that his father praises him more and more.
To outsiders, it seems as if they are truly a rare harmony made in heaven.
But……
[Mr. Qin takes his wife very seriously...]
The servant's words suddenly echoed in his mind, making Liu Xinai suddenly come back to her senses.
Ah.
Take it to heart.
If he really cared about her, why would he force her over and over again?
This one thing alone can overturn everything.
Without saying anything more, she hurriedly turned around and entered the bathroom.
After coming out, he walked straight to the bed without changing his expression, picked up his quilt and was about to leave.
"Still want to sleep on the sofa?"
Qin Yiyan's slow voice sounded in his ears.
Liu Xinai froze and looked at him warily.
But he saw that Qin Yiyan seemed to be in a good mood, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
But the words he said couldn't make anyone feel better.
"I have already said that I am not interested in you today..."
He gently tapped his finger on the side of his body and repeated what he just said.
Then the conversation suddenly changed: "If you don't want to be the same as yesterday, you..."
Qin Yiyan deliberately didn't finish his sentence.
The threat in his tone was very obvious.
Seeing Liu Xinai holding the quilt and freezing in place, the curvature of the corners of his lips couldn't help but become higher.
What is she thinking about now?
Are you scolding him in your heart, or are you planning to resist?
Or be obedient?
No matter which reaction it was, she looked much more "human" now than when we first met.
At least, it no longer looks like a lifeless piece of wood.
Qin Yiyan was thinking about it when he saw Liu Xinai suddenly put down the quilt, then turned around and went to bed without saying a word, lying down with her back to him.
That was an absolutely defensive stance.
