After Transmigrating, I Married the Male Lead’s Sister (GL) - Chapter 49
The Hou family came to visit as a whole, and coincidentally, most of the Qin family was at home.
Liu Ruoxi knew that Ji Wenjing was coming today, so she took the two aunts out and left Qin Yaohua and Qin Qing at home to receive the future in-laws. Qin Zhan was confined to his room to reflect.
Therefore, it was Li Suimei who first discovered Hou Kai.
Hou Kai had lost a lot of weight. He was haggard and bony, with prominent cheekbones, and his whole person looked mean and cold. His eyes were like those of a crow eating carrion.
Hou Kai, arm in arm with his mother, walked closer. When he reached the downstairs, he looked up at Li Suimei and smiled. Li Suimei took a step back. Under the eaves, Hou Kai’s figure slowly disappeared, and the servant’s voice came.
Hou Kai’s voice was like a broken wind, “I’ve come to visit the Qin family, to beg the Qin family to forgive me.”
Li Suimei’s hair stood on end!
She quickly flipped through the calendar, determined that if Gu Linxi didn’t come today, she wouldn’t go downstairs no matter what!
The servant hesitated, and Hou Kai said, “Don’t worry, with so many bodyguards in Qin Bay, I won’t cause any trouble.”
Hou’s mother said softly, “I’ve already made an appointment with Yaohua, otherwise, how could we have gotten the access permission? Please let us in.”
The servant had no choice but to welcome the Hou family mother and son into the house.
After waiting for a while, footsteps were heard, and the servant’s voice came from the study next door.
“Sir, Miss, the Hou family is here.”
The door opened and closed, and Qin Qing’s voice sounded, “Why did you let him in?”
The servant replied urgently in a low voice, “The access permission to the wetland park has been opened. I asked, and it seems it was done by Young Master.”
Qin Qing pursed her lips and said nothing, only Qin Yaohua sighed softly.
Several footsteps went downstairs. Li Suimei leaned against the door, listening carefully to the noise outside.
Following that, the door on the other side of the stairs opened and closed. Li Suimei frowned and quickly ran to the window. Sure enough, a strange car had arrived outside the pavilion.
Getting out of the car was Gu Linxi. Just as in the original book, Qin Zhan had made an appointment with Gu Linxi to express his sincerity to his parents at home. To ensure the plan went smoothly, he had given Gu Linxi access to Qin Bay, inadvertently letting Hou Kai in.
With this lineup, plus Hou Kai, the Qin family, and Ji Wenjing and Li Enhua who had just gotten off the plane and were heading to Qin Bay, Li Suimei came back to her senses and quickly circled and emphasized today’s date in the calendar.
She hurriedly changed out of her nightgown and put on some makeup, a kind of makeup that would cover her temperament and make her look more haggard.
After a while, Qin Zhan brought Gu Linxi close to the door. Li Suimei hid behind the window. The two figures disappeared. Without looking, Li Suimei knew that the Qin family’s expressions must have been extremely ugly.
She waited a little longer, and when she had finished getting ready and went downstairs, she saw Qin Zhan pulling Gu Linxi to kneel on the ground. He seemed to be arguing with Qin Yaohua, while Gu Linxi lowered her head and remained silent.
Qin Yaohua shouted, “You bastard!”
Qin Zhan said, “Dad, I just want to be with Linxi.”
“Our Qin family doesn’t accept such a woman of unknown origin!”
“Dad! Linxi is the one I love—”
“Qin Zhan!” Li Suimei suddenly shouted. Everyone in the living room turned to look at the stairs. Her thin figure appeared on the stairs. Li Suimei held onto the railing and slowly walked down. Her white skin contrasted with the dark brown railing, making her look delicate and fragile.
Li Suimei stared at Qin Zhan infatuatedly.
“Li Suimei!” In the corner, Hou Kai had just stood up and was pulled back to his seat by Hou’s mother.
Li Suimei’s face changed, and she subconsciously stood still, not daring to move.
“Since the Hou family has come to ask for help, they should have the attitude to ask for help.” Qin Qing, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke. She sat on the sofa, wearing a shirt and black suit pants. The pants made her legs look straight and slender. Qin Qing was casually dangling her feet, and the aura of a superior person pressed down on everyone.
Hou’s mother quickly stood up and apologized, “It’s Xiao Kai who is being reckless!”
Qin Yaohua frowned. Qin Zhan and Gu Linxi were still kneeling, and everything had happened at once. He looked at Qin Qing and prepared to send the Hou family mother and son away first.
Qin Yaohua said, “Mrs. Hou, the Qin family needs to deal with some family matters today. I will personally visit your house another day.”
Li Suimei sat down at the dining table, a not-too-close-nor-too-far distance from the people on the sofa. Behind her was a half-person-tall antique vase.
Hou’s mother probably felt embarrassed too, and pulled Hou Kai to get up and leave. Li Suimei pursed her lips and met Hou Kai’s disgusting gaze!.
The next moment, Hou Kai shook his mother’s hand away, “Mom, do you think the Qin family will let us come here again?”
Qin Bay was heavily guarded, even more so than the neighboring 5A-rated wetland park. However, it was ultimately a residence, and these defenses were rarely activated, as everyone in the family had access. This was how Hou’s mother and son had slipped through the cracks.
Hou’s mother hesitated for a moment, “Yaohua…”
The four major families had been friendly for many years, and Mrs. Hou had always called him that.
Qin Yaohua remained unmoved, pointing to the door and saying, “Let’s go.”
Hou’s mother suddenly flushed red, and with a determined look, she shouted, “We’re not leaving! You let Xiao Kai go! You let Xiao Kai go!”
Her voice was loud, and even Gu Linxi, who was kneeling on the ground, cowered.
“Xiao Kai was arrested for drug use, the Qin family has no right to interfere,” Qin Yaohua said.
Hou’s mother wept, “Xiao Kai was clearly framed by Li Suimei! The Qin family is so ruthless! They’ve managed to keep their daughter-in-law clean! And Xiao Kai…”
She couldn’t continue, covering her face and sobbing.
Qin Qing chuckled, as if in cold mockery.
Qin Qing said, “There’s no turning back on this matter.”
Hou’s mother sobbed, leaning her head on Hou Kai’s shoulder, and whimpered, “Xiao Kai… what are you going to do…”
Hou Kai looked at Li Suimei and said, “Let me go, I thought I wouldn’t bother you anymore.”
“You disgust me,” Li Suimei said.
Hou Kai lowered his head and muttered, “…you think I’m disgusting.”
Li Suimei gave a pale smile, her gaze falling on Qin Zhan, as if mocking herself for being on the same level as Hou Kai.
Qin Zhan raised his eyes, and his back of his hand was immediately pressed down by Gu Linxi! He swallowed the words he wanted to say.
“Disgusting?” Hou Kai asked rhetorically. He straightened up and fixed his gaze on Li Suimei, “Mom, it’s a pity that your son can’t enjoy the favor of a beautiful woman like you for the rest of his life!”
Li Suimei clenched her fists. Qin Qing glanced at her, realizing the tense atmosphere, and turned to Hou’s mother and son, saying, “Please leave.”
However, Hou’s mother was determined to stay, so Qin Qing called for the bodyguards.
Qin Yaohua, distracted while waiting for the bodyguards to drive the Hou family away, didn’t notice that Qin Zhan and Gu Linxi had exchanged several glances.
“Uncle…” Gu Linxi began hesitantly, wanting to take a gamble. Even though it would be embarrassing in front of outsiders, it was better to make everything public than to hide it, “I truly love Qin Zhan!”
“Shut up!” Qin Yaohua interrupted sharply.
Qin Zhan defended Gu Linxi, “Dad!”
The atmosphere suddenly tensed. Qin Qing put her legs down and stared at Hou Kai.
Hou’s mother supported Hou Kai, and the mother and son sat together, motionless.
The bodyguard came and tried to pull Hou Kai away, but he was violently pushed over!
Hou Kai’s movement was too big, and he didn’t knock the bodyguard down, but stumbled a few steps. However, in that moment when Hou Kai waved his hand to get up, Li Suimei recalled the oppressive feeling of being confined in a corner by him!
Li Suimei’s lips lost all color.
It was fake! It was all fake!
Hou Kai was grabbed by the bodyguards and pulled up by his arms. With his hands restrained, his gaze fixed directly on Li Suimei!
Fear struck instantly!
Li Suimei jumped up from her seat. As if in shock, she took a few big steps backward and knocked over the vase!
“Bang–”
The vase shattered into pieces, the loud noise startled everyone!
Hou Kai broke free from the bodyguards! He lunged towards Li Suimei!
“Meimei!”
Everyone was startled and moved. Qin Zhan, who was closest to her, stood up and ran over, his steps stumbling and tripping Gu Linxi who was kneeling on the ground!
Gu Linxi fell to the side and cried out, “Qin Zhan.”
This soft call was particularly clear amidst the screams of Hou’s mother and the servants!
Qin Zhan stopped abruptly in place. Beside him, a slender figure flashed past. Qin Qing grabbed Li Suimei’s hand and pulled her into her arms!
The next second, there was the sound of chairs being knocked over!
Hou Kai missed his target! He fell to the ground, and a piece of broken glass pierced his palm!
“Qin Qing! You b1tch!”
He spat out a mouthful of saliva! The next moment, he was pressed to the ground by the bodyguard!
Hou’s mother cried out, “Xiao Kai!”
Hou Kai went crazy, “Li Suimei, you b1tch! I regret it so much! When you were with me, why didn’t I just sleep with you!”
“Now you’re about to get engaged to Qin Zhan, right? Do you think getting engaged will protect you from the Qin family?”
“Just you wait! I’ll get you under me sooner or later—”
Bang!
Hou Kai was pressed down! It was Qin Zhan! He flew over and straddled Hou Kai, punching him hard in the face!
Qin Zhan: “Shut up!”
“What? Heartbroken?” Hou Kai spat out a mouthful of bl00d, “What are you heartbroken about? When you were serving Li Suimei like a dog before, why didn’t you have this arrogant expression?”
Qin Qing held Li Suimei in her arms, the person in her arms was trembling. She glanced sideways, stopping the bodyguards who were about to help, and the bodyguards turned to stop Hou’s mother who was about to pounce!
“Bang!” Qin Zhan punched Hou Kai in the left cheek again!
“Damn it!”
“Aren’t you with a new lover now? Can’t sleep with Li, so go sleep with someone surnamed Gu? Qin Zhan, you’re a waste!”
Qin Zhan’s punches fell randomly! Hou Kai resisted! The two of them immediately started fighting! Hou Kai’s body was weakened by drugs and women, he was no match for Qin Zhan, and Qin Yaohua just watched coldly from the side.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise from behind!
Gu Linxi stood up abruptly, “Qin Zhan!”
Hou’s mother cried out, “Xiao Kai!”
Li Suimei wanted to turn her head to look, but Qin Qing pressed the back of her head against her shoulder, she couldn’t turn her head, she could only look at Gu Linxi in front of her.
Gu Linxi’s heart was on Qin Zhan, and Li Suimei saw her pupils constrict sharply. The next moment, Gu Linxi screamed!
“Qin Zhan!”
Struggling, Hou Kai found a piece of broken vase on the ground! He raised it high, and the sharp shard of glass cut Qin Zhan’s face!
