Chapter 179 - 180 Marriage Matters (11)
Everyone actually clearly sensed Qin Mobai’s anger.
Just when he was about to speak, Qin Moxi ran over with a bowl and chopsticks. She placed the bowl and chopsticks next to Mi Beier and said sweetly, "Sister Beier, you can sit over there. I have a few questions to ask Sister Lou Xi, she’s a student at South City University. I originally wanted to ask you, since you’re also from Nan University, and it seems that your father donated a building to Nan University!"
But everyone knew in their hearts that it was precisely because Mi Beier’s father donated a building to Nan University that Mi Beier was admitted.
Being hit at her sore spot, Mi Beier snorted, got up, and walked over to Qin Moxi’s previous seat.
Qin Moxi stealthily smiled at Lou Xi, then pulled her to sit down on a chair.
Thus, a storm that was about to happen was dispelled by Qin Moxi, and everyone finally sat quietly to eat.
The Qin Family’s rule is: no talking during meals, no speaking during sleep.
So when the last person sat down, after Qin Sheng announced the start of the meal, no one spoke. Everyone ate quietly, without making a sound.
Lou Xi understood now. Qin Mobai’s elegant eating habits were all learned in the Qin Family.
Just look at the Qin Family’s way of eating: each person was extremely graceful, not making a sound, focusing solely on their meal.
But this atmosphere made Lou Xi a bit uncomfortable.
She usually liked to talk while eating with Bai Lu at school. Later, living with Qin Mobai, she knew he was a man of few words, so she chattered while eating, and Qin Mobai never said it was inappropriate.
But who would have thought, the way the Qin Family eats is so terrifying.
So, Lou Xi restrained herself and quietly sat in her chair eating.
To Lou Xi, this meal was pure torture, even though the food on the table was truly delicious, making you want to eat more.
But in such an environment, even a delicacy isn’t appealing to Lou Xi!
So this evening, like a lady, she ate the dishes in small bites, ate the rice in small bites, feeling utterly repressed!
Finally, after dinner was over, Lou Xi thought, this ordeal is finally over!
Turns out, not yet!
Old Madam Qin said they should stay and chat together.
Oh, Lou Xi really didn’t want to chat with such a big family. If she chats, she might become a target of criticism; she might as well go home early to wash up and sleep!
But Qin Mobai agreed to this suggestion, so chat they shall!
The fruit and desserts were placed on the cleared table.
Upon seeing the desserts, Lou Xi’s stomach, which hadn’t been full earlier, began rumbling again, really wanting to eat, really wanting to...
But under so many eyes, Lou Xi could only swallow her saliva, swallow her saliva.
"Mobai, how’s the company doing recently?" The one who spoke was Qin Sheng, the quiet old man, who seemed strong but also hard to approach.
Qin Mobai, hearing the elder’s words, nodded lightly, "It’s going okay."
Qin Sheng, hearing his grandson’s words, didn’t seem very satisfied. What does "going okay" mean?
Before the elder could continue questioning, Qin Mobai said, "Since Grandpa handed the company over to me, I’ll make it better."
Hearing his grandson say this, Qin Sheng finally eased his serious expression.
"Ruozhuo called me today."
"You don’t have to tell me if she called you." Qin Mobai retorted with one sentence.
But Lou Xi noted it down, who is this "Ruozhuo"?
