Chapter 1405: There Is No Wall That Cannot Be Pried
Xu Xiaoxiao was a little worried that her strange behavior would be discovered by Liu Xin'ai, so she secretly glanced to the side.
As a result, upon looking, she discovered that Liu Xin'ai was staring in one direction, watching intently.
"Xin'ai, what are you looking at?"
Liu Xin'ai gently lifted her chin and replied, "That woman, she is Wang Yaran."
Whoa, they ran into her just like that!?
Xu Xiaoxiao rubbed her hands together, eager to see what this woman who wanted to replace Liu Xin'ai looked like!
But just as she looked over...
Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but mutter, "This profile..."
"It looks a lot like mine, doesn't it?"
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded.
But then she immediately said, "But it's only a superficial resemblance; she doesn't have your cool, aloof air. Look at her eyes, they are full of schemes."
At this moment, Wang Yaran seemed to be on a phone call.
While she was talking, her eyeballs kept rolling around.
Her brows were also furrowed.
Looking at her like this, she was indeed skilled at calculating.
But suddenly, she hung up the phone and stood there with her eyes lowered and a submissive look.
Not long after, Qin Chao walked over in a hurry.
He had parted with Qin Yiyan on bad terms, and his mood was currently terrible.
Seeing Wang Yaran, his attitude toward her was also very poor, and he started spouting accusations the moment he opened his mouth.
Wang Yaran was almost cried by his words, her eyes turning red.
However, when Qin Chao flicked his sleeves and left, she immediately put away her aggrieved expression, turning cold instead.
Having watched the whole process, Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but comment, "She is no pushover, Xin'ai, you must be careful."
Liu Xin'ai did not want to watch the drama anymore.
She dragged Xu Xiaoxiao away and said, "It has nothing to do with me."
"Really? She wants to take your place!"
"What is mine, she cannot snatch away. What I don't want, she can take as she pleases."
"Oh, does that include Qin Yiyan?"
"……Hmm."
Xu Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes slightly: "Woman, you hesitated."
"My nose was just a little itchy!"
Itchy nose? That was certainly an itchy moment!
Xu Xiaoxiao shrugged and didn't call her out.
Meanwhile, Wang Yaran, who was still standing where she was, calmed her mood and drove back to the Old Residence.
At this moment, an old man was sitting in the tea room at home drinking tea.
Seeing Wang Yaran, the old man put down his cup and asked, "How are things with the Qin Family being handled?"
Wang Yaran sat opposite the old man, lowered her head, and said, "There are feelings between Liu Xin'ai and Qin Yiyan; it is not easy to pry them apart."
"But in this world, there is no wall that cannot be pried."
"That would be too much of a waste of time..."
The old man narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Do you want to give up?"
Wang Yaran immediately shook her head and denied it: "I will not give up. I have also spoken with Qin Chao again, and he... wants me to conceive Qin Yiyan's child!"
This proposal actually surprised the old man a little.
He thought for a moment and said, "Merely conceiving a child will not stabilize the relationship between the two families."
"But if there isn't even a child, we cannot connect with the Qin Family at all. Grandfather, that Qin Chao only cares about the Qin Family's descendants. I need this stepping stone to first create a bond with Qin Yiyan."
Wang Yaran's words seemed to convince the old man.
After pondering for a moment, the old man asked, "You agreed?"
"Yes."
"Sigh, it really is a grievance for you."
Wang Yaran lowered her eyes, looking as if she were enduring humiliation for a greater cause: "As long as I can help the family regain its former glory, I don't mind."
The old man patted Wang Yaran's shoulder, his aged voice filled with gratification: "Grandfather keeps your contributions to the family in his heart. In the future, I will definitely treat you and your mother well!"
"Thank you, Grandfather!"
"Alright, you go and get some rest too."
Wang Yaran left the tea room obediently.
But the moment she turned around, her expression changed.
……
Soon, Liu Xin'ai's friends also learned one after another that she had recovered her memory.
But everyone did not feel the relief they had expected; instead...
They felt nothing.
Because Liu Xin'ai's reaction was too calm, and her life had not been affected.
She even took care of the injured Qin Yiyan.
Qin Yiyan's injuries were healing quite quickly.
Especially with the help of Professor Shen's Special Effect Medicine, it was not long before he could be discharged from the Hospital for treatment.
On the day of his discharge, Qin Yiyan waited eagerly for Liu Xin'ai.
He hoped she would come to pick him up.
However...
Until Qin Yiyan left the Hospital, he did not see her figure.
This made Qin Yiyan very disappointed.
Yet when Qin Yiyan returned home, he saw a familiar, beautiful figure!!
Qin Yiyan was overjoyed and opened his mouth to call out Liu Xin'ai's name.
But the moment the other person slowly turned her head, Qin Yiyan's smile vanished.
He even asked coldly, "Why have you followed me all the way home!"
Wang Yaran walked timidly in front of Qin Yiyan and replied, "Your father was moved by my sincerity and has already allowed me to come to the house to take care of you."
While speaking, Wang Yaran even tried to reach out to support Qin Yiyan's arm.
But Qin Yiyan irritably brushed her away and scolded impatiently, "I don't allow it, get out!"
"How can you speak to a guest like that!"
A dignified voice came from upstairs.
Then, Qin Chao walked slowly to Wang Yaran's side and showed a disapproving expression toward Qin Yiyan.
But Qin Yiyan did not care what his father's attitude was; at this moment, he was very annoyed.
He also found that woman very unpleasant to look at.
As for the way to treat guests?
He cared even less!
He even opened his mouth and said unceremoniously, "If I remember correctly, this property is registered under my name, and I have the right to decide who stays and who leaves!"
"So according to you, you are going to kick your father out too!"
"That wouldn't happen, but if Father thinks she takes good care of people, you can completely invite her back to the Old Residence to take care of things there!"
"You... how insolent!!"
Qin Chao was so angry that his breathing became heavy.
And Chi Rong, who had been silent all along, spoke up at this moment: "I think my son is right. This home has a mistress, and that is Xin'ai! Any other woman who shouldn't be here, please leave as soon as possible!"
Chi Rong had gone to the Hospital today to pick up Qin Yiyan.
She could feel Qin Yiyan's disappointment at not being able to see Liu Xin'ai.
She had even prepared to comfort him after returning home.
But she had not expected an inexplicable woman to appear in the house.
Chi Rong did not understand the situation, so at first, she did not speak.
But gradually, she understood what was going on.
Thinking of Qin Chao's consistent style of doing things...
Her expression sank immediately, and when she spoke, her face was full of righteousness.
In front of Chi Rong, Qin Chao's momentum weakened involuntarily.
But he did not intend to back down and said, "I am also doing this for the good of the whole family."
"That is what you consider good. Yiyan has already grown up; he knows what he should do, and your stubbornness will only wear away the father-son bond between you!"
After Chi Rong finished speaking, she said coldly to Wang Yaran, "Miss, please leave."
Wang Yaran did not leave, but instead turned her head to look at Qin Chao.
