80s: The cold-faced tough guy was controlled by the beautiful woman

Chapter 341. Is the one hiding something really ugly?

Li Yingtang looked through the photos one by one, picked out a portion, and put the rest into the album.

By evening, Qin Xian had not returned.

She cooked herself a bowl of noodles, and after eating, she went into her study to look through wardrobe design drawings to improve her aesthetic sense.

Moon to midday.

Qin Xian returned from outside, accompanied by a woman.

He looks quite familiar.

He was about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, with fair skin, slightly overweight, and of average appearance.

Qin Xian introduced, "Sister Yuanyue, this is Tangtang."

Li Yingtang remembered the other person and took the initiative to greet her, "Hello, Sister Yuanyue."

Qiao Yuanyue smiled kindly and said, "You are so beautiful, even more beautiful than the people in the movies."

"You flatter me too much," Li Yingtang said, "Please have a seat."

"Oh." Qiao Yuanyue sat down and looked around. "Your little courtyard is very well-maintained, clean and tidy. You have cats and dogs, right? I didn't hear any dogs barking when I came in."

"I don't call them that to my own family." Li Yingtang meant that Qin Xian was present.

Qiao Yuanyue understood that Li Yingtang treated her like family, and her smile widened: "Aren't you usually bored at home?"

Li Yingtang's gaze fell on Qin Xian, receiving a smile from him. Did he mean, "Whatever you say?"
Her identity was used to pull strings and get things done.

She's practically Qin Xian's older sister, so she's one of our own.

There's no need to hide too much, but you can't reveal everything either.

She hesitated for a moment before saying, "I've opened a small shop now."

"Open a shop? Become a businesswoman? Does Xiaoshan agree?"

Qin Xian replied, "I'm bored at home. If I have something to do, I can at least supplement my household income."

Qiao Yuanyue nodded: "That's true. My neighbor's wife stays at home all day doing nothing, expecting to be waited on hand and foot. Her in-laws often talk badly about her behind her back."

Li Yingtang: "Sister, have you eaten? I'll cook you a bowl of noodles."

"Xiao Xian has already taken me to eat."

Li Yingtang responded with an "oh".

Qin Xian: "Sister Yuanyue, it's getting early. Why don't you stay in the study for now?"

"Oh, I'm fine with staying anywhere."

Li Yingtang led Qiao Yuanyue into the study, casually putting away the books and design drawings on the table. "Sister, this room is rather small, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Qiao Yuanyue: "That's good. Do you usually read these books? Xiao Xian said you were an orphan, so I thought you had never been to school."

Li Yingtang gently scratched her nose. The word "orphan" was really jarring.

If she had the ability she has today, she would never have wanted to be an orphan.

That's definitely cursing your own family!
"Just take a look, most of the people looking at it are Ah Xian. Sister, this door leads to the bathroom. Turn on this switch when you take a shower." Li Yingtang taught Qiao Yuanyue how to use the water heater.

"Your bathroom is so clean, I'm almost embarrassed to use it."

"Make yourself at home, don't be shy," Li Yingtang said a few words before leaving the bathroom.

Back in the bedroom, he asked Qin Xian, "Did your sister come to Yanjing to see you alone?"

“Three: the couple and her father-in-law. After Sister Yuanyue found out I was transferred to the city, she brought her father-in-law to my hospital for treatment. After the examination, he needed to be hospitalized for surgery, and her husband stayed with him. I brought her back,” Qin Xian explained.

Li Yingtang: "Should my sister's boyfriend come over tomorrow?"

Qin Xian: "No need, I'll book a room at a guesthouse near the hospital and arrange for them there."

“They’ve come all this way, is it really okay for you to put them in a guesthouse? Won’t they say I can’t tolerate them?” Li Yingtang was more concerned about the opinions of the people Qin Xian valued about her.

"How could that be? They know exactly which is more convenient for them, staying at the hospital or here," Qin Xian said.

Relieved, Li Yingtang moved to the dressing table, opened a drawer, took out a photo album, and handed it to him: "The previous photos have been developed."

Qin Xian flipped through the pages one by one: "Why are the scenes of you and Lee Jin-gyu together always so blurry?" Last time, her face was unclear, and this time, everyone's face is unclear.

Does this mean she's leaving?
Thinking of this, my heart suddenly tightened.

Li Yingtang: "I don't know, maybe it's a lighting issue."

Qin Xian's brows furrowed with seriousness: "If one day you return to your old life, will you remember me?"

Li Yingtang laughed and said, "Nonsense! You're my first love, and now I'm pregnant with your child. How could I not remember you? Don't overthink it, okay?" Qin Xian smiled slightly and said, "Okay."

At that moment, the dogs in the yard started barking.

Qin Xian went outside to check, and the next second, she heard a strange man's voice.

Li Yingtang observed the courtyard through the gap in the curtains, using the light from the lamp inside.

The man is thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old, with an average to below-average appearance.

Slightly chubby, with a slightly protruding belly.

I don't know them at all.

Since it was so late, Qin Xian spoke to him rather politely.

Who is Sister Yuanyue's man?

Just as she guessed.

The man called to Yuanyue, "Yuanyue, I can't take care of Father, you'll have to go."

Qiao Yuanyue said impatiently, "You came all this way just to ask me to serve your father?"

"If you, as the daughter-in-law, don't take care of her, who will? Come with me now." The man took Qiao Yuanyue's hand as a matter of course.

Qin Xian blocked the man's hand: "That's backwards. As a son, you should be taking care of your father."

The man's face darkened, and he was about to lose his temper.

Qiao Yuanyue smoothed things over, saying, "Xiao Xian, thank you for your trouble. I'll go over now."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xian decided it was inconvenient to continue speaking up: "It gets chilly at night, so why don't you bring a blanket?"

"Goodbye," Qiao Yuanyue refused.

"Take it with you," the man agreed.

Qin Xian carried a quilt from the study and handed it to the man.

The man took it and said, "Didn't you get married? Where's your wife?"

Why are you seeing someone else's wife?

"She's still my sister-in-law, shouldn't she come out and acknowledge us?"

Qin Xian: "She's resting. I'll ask her tomorrow, and if she has time, I'll take her to meet people."

The man pursed his lips, deliberately delaying. He'd surely come up with another excuse later. Was he hiding something? Was he some ugly monster?

"."

After seeing the couple off, Qin Xian returned to her room.

Li Yingtang said, "Sister Yuanyue's boyfriend is very arrogant."

Qin Xian: "No one is perfect, but I'm not a bad person at heart."

Li Yingtang: "He looks lecherous and bloated; he doesn't seem like a good person. How did Sister Yuanyue fall for him?"

Sister Yuanyue has good facial features; if she wasn't exceptionally beautiful when she was young, she was certainly pretty.

How did I end up with someone so plain-looking?

Not only is she ugly, but she's also hard-hearted.

Shouldn't you personally take care of your own father when he's hospitalized?

How can we rely on others?
Qin Xian: "You can't judge a book by its cover."

Li Yingtang did not argue: "I will accompany Li Zhengui on horseback tomorrow, but I will not have time to see him, nor do I want to see him."

"I didn't plan to let you see me," Qin Xian said with a smile.

Otherwise, why would he go through all that trouble?

Why not just ask her to come out and get to know her?

Li Yingtang understood what he meant and laughed, "Actually, you also think he's a womanizer and not a good person, right?"

Qin Xian used conservative language: "I haven't had much contact with them, so I can't comment."

Li Yingtang: "Please refrain from commenting for Sister Yuanyue's sake, but I will. This man is extremely selfish and unfilial. His own father is hospitalized, and he would rather travel such a long way to find his wife to take care of him than do it himself. This shows his character. Sister Yuanyue is too cowardly; she actually ignored your help and went back with him."

Can we really rely on this kind of person in the future?
