When the siblings got home, their mother had already cooked dinner and was waiting for them.

“You’re back! Go wash your hands and let’s eat!” Nangong Shulan called out to her son and daughter as soon as she saw them return, telling them to wash their hands and eat.

“Okay, Mom, I missed you so much.” Qin Jiale ran over to hug her mother before going to wash her hands.

“This girl has become so much more cheerful.” Nangong Shulan remarked with a smile to her husband.

“Yes, she has become much more lively and talkative.” Qin Lei felt that his daughter seemed more popular in this manner. Before, she looked somewhat too stern for her age, exuding an air of seriousness unbefitting her youth.

“Mom, Dad, stop chatting and come eat.” Seeing his parents still talking after he finished preparing the food, Qin Yu went into the kitchen to call them to dinner.

“Alright, let’s go eat, everyone,” said Qin Lei with a smile, addressing his son and wife.

The family of four sat down to eat together.

“Xiao Yu, how did the talk at the Li’s go today?” Nangong Shulan inquired about their visit to the Li’s that day.

“Everything’s settled, no problems at all. Cloud should be able to come back tonight,” replied Qin Yu, after taking a bite of rice.

“Weren’t the Li’s supposed to be quite stubborn? How did you persuade them? You didn’t do anything rash, did you?” Nangong Shulan worried about her son acting impulsively.

“No, Mom, don’t worry.” Qin Yu was no longer an ignorant child who would do foolish things.

“That’s good. How is Xiao Qiu dealing with all this?” Qin Lei asked about his niece’s situation.

“Qin Qiu is still somewhat reluctant to let go of Li Kun. When I went today, she even got angry with me,” Qin Yu replied while continuing to eat, addressing his father’s question.

“After all, they’ve reached the stage of discussing marriage, it’s only natural for her to feel reluctant. But if she doesn’t let go now, she’ll suffer for the rest of her life,” Qin Lei believed they couldn’t just follow Qin Qiu’s wishes.

At her young age, she didn’t know how to observe people or consider the consequences of her actions. But as adults, they couldn’t just stand by and watch Qin Qiu jump into the fire.

“I’ve made it clear to Li Kun, based on my uncle’s wishes.

And besides, if Qin Qiu doesn’t agree, she’s going to become a stepmother. You have no idea that woman is already pregnant,” said Qin Yu. He used this information to threaten Li Kun, because the latter was the only heir of the Li family. Now that the woman was pregnant, how could the Lis let go of the opportunity of having a grandchild?

Qin Yu capitalized on this to threaten Li Kun.

If he didn’t let Qin Yun go, then no one could be blamed if the pregnant woman had a miscarriage.

The Li family had thought that the Qins knew nothing about the pregnancy. Who would have imagined that Qin Yu would find out, and even use it against them?

One could only imagine how furious Li Kun would be. But no matter how angry he got, Qin Yu would never let him keep hold of the Qin family’s daughter.

While this family happily enjoyed their meal, the Li family was plunged into chaos.

“Did the Qin family really say that?” Mr. Li asked, unable to believe it. When had the Qin family ever been this tough? They actually dared to threaten the Li family. But the Lis had no choice but to take the threat seriously, because they couldn’t afford the gamble.

“Dad, just go to Uncle and ask him to release Qin Yun. The sooner the better,” said Li Kun, thinking of the tender body of the pregnant woman and the child growing inside her. He didn’t want to have any ties with the Qin family any longer. However, he was determined to settle the matter of his broken leg with the Qins eventually.

When had he, Li Kun, ever suffered such a loss? Would he still be Li Kun if he didn’t regain his face?
