Chapter 1110: Unable to Integrate into This Family
Bai Yufei's original intention was to sow discord.
Yet her expression was sincere, as if she had only mentioned it in passing.
Whoever overthought it would be the one with a dark heart.
In any case, Liu Xin'ai did not overthink it.
She also did not care what Bai Yufei was thinking.
Just as Liu Xin'ai was silently waiting for this topic to pass—Qin Yiyan suddenly poured juice for Liu Xin'ai again, and said unhurriedly: "Xin'ai's personality is just like this; after you've been in contact for a long time, you will know that she has her own way of speaking, which has nothing to do with being perfunctory."
Such obvious protection... could Bai Yufei not see it?
Feeling sour in her heart at once, she added with a hint of jealousy: "Brother, you spoil your wife too much..."
"Fei'er!" Chi Rong really could not watch anymore and reminded Bai Yufei.
But Bai Yufei felt aggrieved instead.
She pursed her red lips and said unhappily: "I didn't have any malicious intent. We are all family here, which is why I said it. I believe my sister-in-law wouldn't want me to always hide things in the future; that would be too awkward."
Bai Yufei considered herself to be open and honest.
She even acted as if she were doing it for everyone's own good.
But Chi Rong began to hesitate.
She did not know if letting this girl move in with Qin Yiyan and the others was the right thing to do...
Seeing that the atmosphere at the dining table was somewhat tense, Qin Chao tried to smooth things over.
But everyone had their own thoughts, and it was never as harmonious as before.
After the meal, Qin Yiyan and Liu Xin'ai prepared to head home.
Qin Yiyan had driven there himself.
By logic, Liu Xin'ai should have been sitting in the passenger seat.
But Bai Yufei sat in it first, and at the same time, said to Liu Xin'ai with an innocent face: "Sister-in-law, I get carsick easily when I sit in the back..."
Liu Xin'ai did not mind; she smiled faintly and sat in the back row.
Actually, it felt very good to sit in the back alone!
It was also very relaxing.
But when Qin Yiyan saw Liu Xin'ai's relaxed appearance, he furrowed his brows.
Bai Yufei noticed his movement and asked unhappily: "Brother, are you disgusted with me? Since you don't want me to sit here so much, then I'll go buy some motion sickness medicine and sit in the back!"
Saying this, Bai Yufei moved to unbuckle her seatbelt.
But Qin Yiyan stopped her: "I didn't ask you to change seats; just stay seated."
"Then why are you still pulling a long face?"
"I am worried about your sister-in-law," Qin Yiyan said, turning his head to Liu Xin'ai: "If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me, and I will pull over to rest for a while."
Facing Qin Yiyan's concern, Liu Xin'ai treated it as wind passing by her ears.
This Qin Yiyan, it is truly hard for him if he doesn't act for even a moment!
But lies always have a day when they are exposed.
She really wanted to see how Qin Yiyan would continue to play this act when that time came!
Qin Yiyan noticed Liu Xin'ai was not speaking and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Seeing that he was becoming impatient, Liu Xin'ai had to respond: "I know, drive carefully."
A single sentence turned Qin Yiyan's cloudy mood to sunny.
He then turned around and started the car.
On the way back, Bai Yufei kept finding topics to chat with Qin Yiyan about.
One moment she was reminiscing about the past, the next she was talking about interesting things from school.
In any case, she did not give Liu Xin'ai a chance to interject.
Bai Yufei wanted to prove to Liu Xin'ai with facts that even if they were married, so what? She still could not integrate into their family!
But in fact...
Bai Yufei was overthinking it.
Not long after the car drove off, Liu Xin'ai began to yawn.
There was no helping it; she easily felt sleepy whenever the car bumped along.
Plus, Bai Yufei kept on chattering...
Liu Xin'ai soon fell asleep.
After Bai Yufei discovered this, she did not forget to take the opportunity to step on Liu Xin'ai: "It seems sister-in-law doesn't like chatting with me. Brother, do you think sister-in-law might not welcome me?"
"That's not the case at all; we both welcome you very much."
Qin Yiyan's one sentence placed him and Liu Xin'ai in the same camp.
This made Bai Yufei dissatisfied.
She turned her head, ready to protest.
But before she could speak, Qin Yiyan said first: "Speak softly, don't disturb her."
This appearance of careful protection was enough to drive Bai Yufei mad!
She suppressed her anger and said with a very unpleasant feeling: "You really do spoil your wife!"
"She is my wife; of course I have to spoil her."
"Sigh, being your wife must be truly happy."
As Bai Yufei said this, she glanced at the person beside her.
She began to fantasize in her heart about how happy she would be if she became Qin Yiyan's wife!
Because she was thinking so intently, Bai Yufei became quiet.
Qin Yiyan needed quiet at this moment, so he did not take the initiative to find a topic to chat about.
When the car drove home, Liu Xin'ai also woke up.
She stretched, pushed open the car door, and walked out.
Qin Yiyan had intended to walk into the house together with Liu Xin'ai.
But Bai Yufei pulled on Qin Yiyan's arm a step ahead, wanting him to take her to see her room.
Bai Yufei's demeanor was very lively, her voice crisp, just like a simple girl with no ulterior motives.
Qin Yiyan felt helpless and had no choice but to take her to see the room first.
But when Bai Yufei saw her room—"Brother, why is my room so far from yours? If I have a nightmare in the middle of the night, I'll have to walk a long way to get to you!!
!"
Bai Yufei felt so aggrieved.
Even her eyes turned red!
Seeing this scene, Qin Yiyan seemed to see the Bai Yufei who had just arrived at the Qin Family.
At that time, Bai Yufei had just changed to a new environment and was very unaccustomed to it.
Coupled with missing her family, she often had nightmares.
Whenever she had a nightmare, she would cry, and no one could coax her.
Only when Qin Yiyan stepped in could she calm down...
Qin Yiyan slowly came back to his senses from his memories.
Looking again at Bai Yufei, who was clearly a grown young woman in front of him...
He spoke directly: "If you really have a nightmare, just turn on the light, read a book for a while, and go back to sleep when you're tired."
This answer made Bai Yufei's eyes widen, and she immediately said with a crying tone: "But you used to comfort me, why don't you care about me now that you have a sister-in-law?"
It wasn't that Qin Yiyan didn't care, it was just that...
Bai Yufei was already a grown young woman; why couldn't she realize this problem herself?
Qin Yiyan looked to his side again.
He wanted to see what reaction Liu Xin'ai, as the lady of the house, would have.
But...
She had no reaction at all!
Like a bystander, she was just watching the excitement from the side!
How could Qin Yiyan let her stay out of it?
He opened his mouth and asked: "Xin'ai, why aren't you saying anything?"
Liu Xin'ai looked back with a calm face.
In this situation, did she need to speak?
After reflecting for a moment, she then said: "You siblings can just make the decision; I have no opinion."
No opinion?
Heh, does that mean if Bai Yufei really ran over in the middle of the night, she would have no reaction either?
Fine, since that's the case, then he would...
Qin Yiyan was just about to act impulsively.
He suddenly remembered that Bai Yufei was his sister.
How could he use his sister to act out of spite?
Qin Yiyan sobered up all at once.
At the same time, his expression darkened, and he pushed all his dissatisfaction onto Liu Xin'ai.
Bai Yufei didn't know what Qin Yiyan was thinking; she only felt that Liu Xin'ai had sensibly given in, so she said: "Look, sister-in-law is even..."
Before Bai Yufei could finish, Qin Yiyan interrupted her.
"She, she's just saying one thing while meaning another; she actually minds very much, so for the sake of your brother and sister-in-law's happiness, don't have nightmares."
