Chapter 81 - Acting

Should he tell his parents about this? Qin Yang stood up from his seat and walked around the office twice. He had already made up his mind.

It was already half past three in the morning when he drove home. The Qin family had already fallen asleep, and the living room was silent. Qin Yang also walked into his room and took a cold shower before sleeping.

The next morning, Qin Xue received a three-layer cake. She said in surprise, “Why is there a cake for me?”

Qin Yang walked down from the bedroom on the second floor. “Xiao Xue, I ordered it for you. And this necklace.” As Qin Yang spoke, he handed Qin Xue a gift box. It was a style from a brand that she had been eyeing for a long time.

“Some time ago, I didn’t treat you well. These are all compensation for you. Good sister, I’ll apologize to you.” Qin Yang’s tone was doting.

“Big Brother, don’t say that. I understand because you usually work so hard to manage the company.” It was as if Qin Xue was still that understanding young lady. Qin Yang was the future heir of the Qin Corporation, and all the financial power would be in his hands. In the long run, pleasing him was more important than pleasing Mr. Qin.

Qin Yang reached out his hand and patted Qin Xue’s head as usual. He continued, “Our Xiao Xue is so sensible. Tell me, what other gifts do you want?”

“I don’t lack anything. It’s just that school is about to start. I wonder where Sister is? How’s the preparation of the things needed for university?”

When he heard this, Qin Yang tried his best to suppress the change in his gaze.

Ever since Zhang Lan’s incident, Mrs. Qin hated Qin Ran even more. “Why are you mentioning that useless woman for no reason? Xiao Xue, you’re too kind. Have you forgotten how she treated us last time?”

She was clearly his biological daughter, but she was instigated by the daughter of a mistress to hate her to the core. When Qin Yang saw this scene, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“Mom, don’t be angry with Sister. She must have some difficulties that she can’t say.” Of course, Qin Xue didn’t care about Qin Ran’s life. She just wanted to test the Qin family’s attitude towards Qin Ran and see if she really had no chance of returning to the Qin family.

When Mrs. Qin heard this, she let out a long sigh and shook her head helplessly.

“Brother, what do you think?” Qin Xue had a begging expression.

If it were in the past, Qin Yang would still think that Qin Xue was genuinely concerned about his sister. However, now that he understood her vicious thoughts, he knew that she did not want Qin Ran to return to the Qin family at all. Hence, he pretended to agree and said, “Didn’t she say in front of everyone at your celebration party that she had already severed all ties with our Qin family? Then she is just a stranger to us now. Why should we let her return?”

She was clearly such an innocent sister, but they were saying sarcastic words about her together here. Qin Yang really wanted to slap himself.

After dealing with Qin Xue, Qin Yang went to the study room. He sat on the chair and felt guilty for a while. As if he had thought of something, he opened his account and transferred a million yuan to Qin Ran’s bank card.

As an elder brother, he could not be by his sister’s side to care for her. The only thing he could do was to let her have more money.

In the future, he would definitely chase Qin Xue out of the Qin family and let her suffer all the hardships that Qin Ran had once suffered. He would also bring his biological sister back to the Qin family and treasure her like a baby.

Meanwhile, Qin Ran, who was far away in the countryside, had no idea about all of this, nor did she want to know. Right now, she didn’t want the word “Qin” to appear in her mind. Even if it did, she was praying that it had nothing to do with the Qin family.

The morning in the countryside was filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers. A few sparrows by the window were chirping happily. Qin Ran opened her sleepy eyes and came to the courtyard in her slippers. Unexpectedly, she saw Mo Chi by the wall.

“You’re up?” Mo Chi walked closer as he spoke.

Qin Ran nodded obediently. Suddenly, her nose felt a little itchy and she couldn’t help but sneeze.

“Did you catch a cold?” Mo Chi frowned and placed his hand on Qin Ran’s forehead to test the temperature. It was very normal.

“No.” It was just an occasional sneeze. There was nothing to fuss about.

“Are you hungry?” Mo Chi asked again.

It would have been better if he hadn’t asked. After asking, Qin Ran really felt a little hungry. She covered her stomach with her hands and smiled.

Unexpectedly, Mo Chi had already prepared breakfast and placed it on the small stone table in the courtyard. Qin Ran walked over and was shocked to see porridge and dishes.
