Rejected by Blood, Embraced by Love: All-Round Star Goes Viral

Chapter 253: Mother-in-law Looks at Son-in-law



He's married, no need for such caution!

The looks on Qin Ji, Qin Yuan, and Qin Mo's faces were somewhat stern, perhaps due to a misunderstanding about Dai Qian. Seeing him quickly pull away, their expressions relaxed immediately.

Seeing Gu Zhi, their faces instantly broke into faint smiles.

Gu Zhi was a bit surprised to see them, "Why are you all here?"

"We heard you're off today, so we came over." Father Qin and Mrs. Qin put down the pile of things they were carrying, looking at her happily, "We won't disturb you, will we?"

Gu Zhi shook her head with a smile, "Not at all, but why did you buy so much?"

"Your second brother said you wrapped up filming a few days ago, so it's time to celebrate. We don't exactly know what it means to wrap filming, so we bought some groceries to cook and celebrate." Mrs. Qin said joyfully, glancing at Dai Qian and Qu Qi beside her, warmly adding: "Are you two here? Then stay for the celebration of Zhi Zhi finishing filming, I'll cook for you all."

The two's eyes lit up at her words; after all, it's Mrs. Qin's cooking! So many netizens are envious to death but can't have it!

Even though they really wanted to eat, they knew it wasn't the right time and quickly shook their heads: "No, no, we're just here to drop off some things for Gu Zhi, we'll leave right after, wouldn't want to intrude on your celebration."

After saying that, they picked up their stuff and left quickly, afraid Mrs. Qin would say anything to make them stay.

They might not be able to resist!

Passing by Qin Ji and Qin Yuan, Qu Qi was even more stunned, her eyes widening in disbelief, almost forgetting to leave.

Damn! No wonder online they say Brother Qin and Second Brother Qin are super handsome in real life, not losing out at all to Third Brother Qin and Momo, turns out it's true!

She hadn't seen them before, it was her first time seeing them. They had a kind of maturity and steadiness different from Qin Zheng and Qin Mo, a deep, calm restraint that made them more charming.

Qu Qi adjusted her glasses, clutched her pounding heart, and ran off.

Qin Ji and Qin Yuan, along with Third Brother Qin, didn't notice her, their eyes staying on Gu Zhi. Seeing the others leave, they approached and said, "Zhi Zhi/Sister, happy filming wrap."

Handing her the gifts they were holding.

Gu Zhi said thanks with a glance, feeling a bit helpless.

"So many gifts again? Aren't you afraid of wasting money? I can't even use all of them."

Qin Ji sent another bag, each time more generous than the last. Jiang Xiangwan had discussed it before, it seemed to be a new brand release.

Qin Yuan gave a skincare set, rumored within the circle as the golden liquid, more expensive than gold per gram.

Qin Mo's gift was a little gadget, a body fat measurement watch where he had modified the device and program himself.

They used to be good, but never this extravagant, making sure every penny was wisely spent.

Qin Ji affectionately ruffled her hair, smiling faintly: "Spending on you isn't a waste, besides, isn't it a kind of investment?"

Gu Zhi chuckled, "The investment cost is greater than the income cost, seems like you're heading for a crash, venture capitalist hero."

Qin Ji was speechless, pretending to glare at her fiercely.

Qin Yuan didn't back down either, pulling her head over with a large hand, deliberately messing up her hairstyle, pursing his lips, "Daring to thank Second Brother is distant."

Gu Zhi: "..."

Qin Mo also came over, personally helping her put on the watch, advising: "Sis, this watch can monitor your body status in real time, what's lacking, if it's suitable for losing weight, so you need to eat well."

Gu Zhi was a bit surprised, "Did you design this yourself?"

Qin Mo gave a low "hmm", a bit embarrassed, "Recently been learning program and physical application, so I designed one for you."

Generally, the body monitoring watches on the market are related to illness. Knowing she often diets harshly on herself, Qin Mo designed one, experimenting for quite a while.

Qin Ji smiled, praising: "A few days ago, Qin Mo took this watch to a Youth Design Competition, won a first prize. If successful, he might apply for a patent."

Gu Zhi was stunned again: "That's amazing."

Even the script didn't mention he could invent such incredible things.

Qin Mo was blushing, humbly saying: "It's nothing, just a small patent, not worth mentioning."

He said this while edging closer to Gu Zhi, his heart inexplicably elated.

Father Qin and Mrs. Qin also prepared gifts, a specially made Peace Lock and Peace Bracelet, as well as a Zodiac Protective Jade Pendant from a temple.

Mrs. Qin stuffed them into her hands, "I've always wanted to buy these for you when you were little, but had no money. Now we can finally get them all, just wish you peace and health, keep them well."

Gu Zhi felt somewhat overwhelmed by favor at this sight.

She just wrapped filming, yet their manner seemed like they wanted to make up for twenty years of gifts all at once.

However, those Peace Locks and Zodiac Jade Pendants she'd seen many people wear, whether newly admitted to the welfare home, just taken from there, or children on the streets…

They all once, or in the future, or now, bear the good wishes and love from their parents and family.

Such shiny things on them, ringing clearly, strikingly attention-grabbing.

Now, she had them too.

Tears misted in Gu Zhi's eyes, she took a deep breath and hugged Father Qin and Mrs. Qin, "Thank you, Mom and Dad."

"What does this kid have to thank us for?" Mrs. Qin patted her back, full of affection.

Releasing her, she said, "I'll go cook, you all chat. Oh Zhi Zhi, is Xiao Yu at home? Since we're all here, why not invite him to celebrate with us, I notice he rarely interacts with others."

As soon as she said that, all three brothers looked cautious and raised their heads.

Qin Ji couldn't help but add, "There's really no need to call him, what status does he have, how could he get along with us—"

Before he finished, a knock came from the door.

The voice of Qi Hengli came through: "Little Aunt... is Sister Zhi Zhi here? I just saw Uncle Qin Ji and little Mo arrive, can I say hi to them?"

Qin Ji, Qin Yuan, and Qin Mo: "..."

No.

Before they could say anything, Mrs. Qin had already walked over and opened the door.

Outside stood two figures, Mrs. Qin took a look at the uncle and nephew pair and quickly recognized Qi Hengli.

"You're... Hengli, right? You were on the show with Zhi Zhi, I've heard little Mo mention you." She then looked at the man beside him, "Xiao Yu, you came just in time, we were just about to invite you, since you're here, come in for a meal."

Qi Hanyu stood at the door without moving, his gaze fixed on Gu Zhi, slightly smirking as he asked, "May I come in?"

Gu Zhi: "..."

Could she say no?

Father Qin, meanwhile, remained silent, just watching everyone with a meaningful smile.
