Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Qin Shaojin sat there, looking at Wen Nuan. After a moment’s pause, he said softly, ”My uncle’s daughter.”

”...”

Wen Nuan widened her eyes and looked at Qin Shaojin.

His uncle’s daughter? Isn’t that his cousin?

But——

Cousin!

Could it be a case of the one who is close gets the advantage? But that should be considered close kin, which is illegal, right?

Qin Shaojin looked at Wen Nuan, ”I’ll tell you in detail after we eat.”

Wen Nuan nodded, feeling a little better.

Still, it felt strange—since they’re cousins, shouldn’t Shu Mengmeng not be infatuated with him?

But why is she always following them around?

If it’s not because she has a crush on Qin Shaojin——

Hmm, could it be that his uncle and grandfather sent her to evaluate her?

Then, hasn’t her performance been somewhat unsatisfactory?

Looking at Qin Shaojin, she suddenly felt a bit nervous.

Qin Shaojin gazed at Wen Nuan, her expressions seemed to change too quickly. It seemed her mind was short-circuiting again. They are indeed cousins, but if there wasn’t any issue, would Shu Mengmeng follow them like that?

Wen Nuan looked at Qin Shaojin, ”If your grandfather and uncle are dissatisfied with me, you must——”

”I’ll handle it.”

Qin Shaojin interrupted Wen Nuan, realizing that’s what she was thinking.

But with the engagement date approaching, there were things he had to tell her.

Wen Nuan saw the waiter bringing the dishes, looking delicious, and happily started eating.

Qin Shaojin watched Wen Nuan, his appetite improving significantly, suddenly recalling what Brother Huo once said to Third Uncle—that watching Huanhuan stimulated the appetite, though Brother Huo’s appetite seemed slightly different from his.

While eating, Wen Nuan looked at Qin Shaojin, ”What do your grandfather and uncle do?”

Qin Shaojin replied, ”They’re government officials.”

Wen Nuan responded with an ”Oh,” thinking they belonged to such a prominent family, would they look down on her?

Thinking this made her even more nervous than before.

Cautiously, Wen Nuan asked, ”Do...they want you to form an alliance or something?”

Qin Shaojin lit a cigarette between bites, ”Why do you ask?”

Wen Nuan pouted, ”That’s how it always is in novels and TV dramas, isn’t it? Even in real life, it’s often like that, isn’t it?”

Qin Shaojin said, ”In real life, what about your Sister Huanhuan and Brother-in-law?”

Wen Nuan was speechless, ”...”

Qin Shaojin looked at Wen Nuan, stretching out his long arm to tug at her bun, ”As long as I like it, that’s enough. After all, I’m the one marrying, it’s got nothing to do with others.”

”...”

Wen Nuan slapped Qin Shaojin’s hand away.

After dinner, they returned to the hotel. Lying on the bed, she wrapped herself in the blanket and looked at Qin Shaojin, ”Did you meet your cousin today?”

Qin Shaojin, ”Yes, but she’s not my uncle’s biological daughter, she’s the daughter of his first love. He’s fond of her, even more than his own daughter.”

”...”

Upon hearing this, Wen Nuan’s expression changed. So, she really admires Qin Shaojin!

Suddenly, she felt a great displeasure!

It seemed like Shu Mengmeng liked Qin Shaojin, but Qin Shaojin did not like Shu Mengmeng!

Yet Shu Mengmeng was so beautiful!

Thinking about this, she spoke up in a sullen tone, ”What were you doing with her for so long?”

Qin Shaojin took a drag of his cigarette, recalling the events of the day, his face cooling, ”What else could we do?”

Wen Nuan’s eyes widened, ”You...you guys...”

Qin Shaojin glanced at her, had he given that impression?

Seeing Wen Nuan’s nose twitch and her eyes fill with tears, he rubbed her bun, ”She asked me what you mean to me.”

Wen Nuan sniffled, wiping her tears forcefully, ”What did you say?”
