The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 288 The Awakening Wife (51)

When Qin Youyou arrived at the Xun family's old house, Qiu Yuwan was drinking tea in the tea room.

"Auntie, I'm back." Qin Youyou greeted her.

Qiu Yuwan didn't say anything, just nodded at her. She left her alone for a long time before picking up her phone to call Xun Kai.

Xun Kai was putting the necklace on Su Xiangran. When he saw his mother calling, he didn't answer it immediately.

Instead, he waited for Qiu Yuwan's third call before answering the call.

"Xiao Kai, come back for dinner tonight!" Qiu Yuwan discussed with Xun Kai.

"Is there anything wrong?" Xue Kai said impatiently.

"Yes, I have something to tell you." Qiu Yuwan's voice was a little more insistent. "You'd better come back for dinner tonight."

"Got it." Xun Kai said and hung up the phone.

Su Xiangran looked at Xun Kai's expression and laughed to herself. How come the mother and son were like strangers?

In fact, she was right.

Qiu Yuwan and Xun Kai's father Xun Feng had a business marriage. The two did not have much affection for each other, and after Xun Kai was born, the relationship between the two became even more dull.

However, Xun Feng is still quite responsible. In this marriage, there is only one woman, his wife.

However, Qiu Yuwan had a first love before she got married, but they haven't had any contact since she got married.

She missed him in her heart when they were not in contact. It can be said that she was always trapped in self-pity before Xun Kai was ten years old.

After she got over this relationship, she found out that her son Xun Kai was no longer old enough to be dependent on his mother, so the mother and son had always had a lukewarm relationship.

Sometimes Qiu Yuwan wanted to compensate her son, but she didn't know where to start.

As for Xun Feng, he was even more indifferent. Before, he only had work in his mind, but now that Xun Kai took over the company, he completely entered retirement mode, going out to fish, write, read books, and live his own life.

Such an indifferent family relationship made Mr. Xun particularly like Qin Youyou, because she looked like a little sun, enthusiastic and warm.

But his grandson Xun Kai doesn't like it. Since he was forced to get engaged, he basically never returns to the old house.

Old Master Xun sometimes regretted his stubbornness, and as Qin Youyou grew older, his former innocent enthusiasm gradually changed.

"Don't be unhappy!" Su Xiangran touched Xun Kai's head, "How about this! Let's change our dinner to tomorrow. This time we won't eat out. How about I cook for you myself?"

"You're right!" Xun Kai became excited again, "Then come to my house tomorrow!"

"Okay." Su Xiangran agreed.

Xun Kai cheered and hugged Su Xiangran and kissed her. The two of them stayed in the office for a while, and when they saw that it was almost dinner time, they left Xun's.

When Xun Kai arrived home, the other four people were already in the living room waiting for dinner.

Mr. Xun was obviously very happy to see his grandson, but he pretended not to care.

When Xun Kai came downstairs, dinner time began.

Although there is no rule in their family about not talking while eating or sleeping, Qiu Yuwan did not say what she wanted to say in order not to affect everyone's appetite.

After dinner, when Xun Kai wanted to go back to his room, Qiu Yuwan stopped her son and said she had something to say.

"Youyou, starting tomorrow you don't have to go to work at the company." Qiu Yuwan said bluntly.

"Auntie, why?" Qin Youyou was a little worried when Qiu Yuwan was about to speak. She didn't expect that this was really directed at her.

"Youyou, I know you are interested in painting." Qiu Yuwan still wanted to save her some face, "Actually, you are doing well at home."

Xun Feng frowned, thought for a moment, and then threw the topic to his son: "Xiao Kai, is there any problem with Youyou at work?"

Xun Kai certainly knew what kind of person Qin Youyou was in the office. After all, he was the one who recruited the director of the design department himself, and that person had complained to him several times.

Qiu Yuwan didn't want to blame anyone for Qin Youyou's dismissal, especially now that her husband had asked her son about it.

"It's normal for people to have different levels of work ability." Qiu Yuwan decided to expose Qin Youyou's shamelessness. "Youyou is often late and leaves early, and often asks for leave."

"Youyou, this is your fault." Old Master Xun also spoke at this time, "You can learn things you don't know, but being lazy is not okay."

"Also," Qiu Yuwan added, "Auntie knows that you have a good relationship with Su Xiangran, but private relationships are private relationships. You can't rely on your previous relationship to force Yu's senior executives to give you afternoon tea."

"Su Xiangran?" Mr. Xun narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, "She is the person in charge of Yu Corporation who discussed the Ancheng project last time."

"Yes." Qiu Yuwan sighed, "When I have time in the next few days, I plan to invite the Yu family to come over for a private gathering and let Youyou simply apologize for this matter. Otherwise, it would be too rude."

Asking me to apologize to Su Xiangran? This is too much.

Qin Youyou hurriedly walked to Xun Kai and pulled his sleeve, wanting him to plead for her.

But when I got in touch with him at this distance, I could smell the fragrance coming from his clothes.

She must have smelled this scent before, but she couldn't remember where she had smelled it.

During this moment of distraction, Qiu Yuwan thought that Qin Youyou agreed to her proposal. When she wanted to refuse again, it was too late.
