Chapter 1879: Chapter 1877: It’s All Her Fault

Shen Manru was taken aback for a moment, not expecting this little girl to really dare speak her mind.

Even though she knew what she was thinking, saying it out loud like this didn’t seem quite appropriate.

However, she actually felt quite pleased inside.

A son like hers is as hard to find as a star in the sky or a gem on the ground; only Gu Qiaoqiao is lucky enough to be with him. Finding a second one like him, what a joke.

Up till now, she hasn’t come across anyone like him.

Perhaps every mother in the world thinks their child is the best, and of course, this has a lot to do with Qin Yize’s excellence; otherwise, this young girl wouldn’t have said such things. She half-jokingly replied, "Choo Lan, are you kidding with Auntie? I’m not boasting, but someone as outstanding as my Ah Ze is truly hard to find, so I think Auntie can’t really help."

Choo Lan suddenly laughed, "Aunt Shen, I’m joking with you. Of course, I know that someone as exceptional as Ah Ze is unique and irreplaceable. You’re really amazing to have such an exceptional son!"

These words are always pleasant to hear, and since Choo Lan said she was joking, Shen Manru wouldn’t continue the conversation.

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao came over with a smile.

Seeing Shen Manru and Choo Lan chatting and laughing together, seemingly having a good relationship, Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes flickered. She smiled and tied on an apron, saying to Shen Manru, "Mom, you and Choo Lan go out and chat. I’ll handle things here."

Choo Lan was initially annoyed at Gu Qiaoqiao for interrupting her chat with Shen Manru, but seeing Gu Qiaoqiao willingly and promptly tie on an apron, she smirked momentarily before it disappeared and said politely, "Auntie, I’ll head out first then."

The kitchen was too small for her to squeeze in and, besides, with Gu Qiaoqiao cooking while she chatted with Shen Manru inside, she felt quite pleased with herself.

Shen Manru softly instructed Gu Qiaoqiao, "I’ve already ordered a few dishes from the restaurant and they’ll be delivered soon. You just need to prepare a few cold dishes here. I’m going to chat with Choo Lan since it’s her first time visiting."

Shen Manru explained to Gu Qiaoqiao.

"Mom, go ahead. She’s a guest after all; we shouldn’t neglect her. I’ll finish things here soon."

Shen Manru turned and left too.

Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t mind, as those who visit are guests after all. Besides, she knew that even if they were starving, they wouldn’t eat her dishes.

She only prepared a few cold dishes, knowing that during the meal, Choo Lan wouldn’t even touch them.

That was the case back at the base.

Back then, she rarely bothered with her, given her sinister nature and infrequent interactions. But who would have thought that she still pined for her Ah Ze after all these years?

It’s strange how relationships work, her mother-in-law and Choo Lan’s mom turned out to be classmates.

Gu Qiaoqiao smiled, shaking her head, efficiently preparing the cold dishes. It didn’t take long, only a dozen minutes, before the restaurant staff arrived at Qin Family Old Residence with three food boxes.

At the meal, it was as expected; Choo Lan didn’t touch the dishes Gu Qiaoqiao prepared, not even glancing at them.

But no one paid attention to such minor actions.

The Qin family’s members didn’t speak much while eating, and although Choo Lan wanted to get close to Grandma Qin, she felt a bit frustrated seeing Grandma Qin engrossed with the two little rascals. If Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t come into the picture, given her family background and looks, Qin Yize would definitely have chosen her when he decided to get married.

Then she would have had lovely and beautiful babies too.

It’s all Gu Qiaoqiao’s fault!

This shameless woman is occupying Qin Yize.

But now they have been married for several years, and they have kids. Surely, their affection will gradually fade. She believed that one day, Qin Yize would realize her worth and fall for her, kicking Gu Qiaoqiao out.

Thinking this, Choo Lan felt much better. She couldn’t find an ideal situation at the moment, but this wasn’t bad.

And with these connections, interactions would certainly become more intimate in the future.

After having dinner, it was time for her to take her leave. Choo Lan said a few words to Grandma Qin, but her gaze soon fell on Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei.

A trace of malice appeared in her eyes, though it disappeared in a flash.

Seeing how this family adored these two kids, hmph, they were still so little; who knew if they’d grow up safely.

Watching Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao looking after their kids so carelessly, without even a bodyguard, they’d surely regret it if something happened.

She wouldn’t warn them! Her niece, even though she’s just a girl, has a nanny and two bodyguards.

Given they are the next generation, if they got kidnapped or something happened, they’d have nowhere to cry.

And families like theirs shouldn’t give others any loopholes or opportunities.

Everything should be planned ahead.

Even though Gu Qiaoqiao has returned to the Gu Family, she grew up in the wilderness, what could she know?

Qin Yize was enamored by her, so he just let her be.

To her, it seemed that neither Qin Yize nor the Qin Family paid real attention to those two kids.

Maybe, claiming to like kids is just superficial.

Gu Qiaoqiao glanced, eyebrows slightly furrowed, feeling something off in Choo Lan’s gaze at her two children.

She saw the malice in her eyes.

But what did those complex emotions mean?

Yet, it also proved the woman’s mind was very active right now, who knows what she’s thinking. Gu Qiaoqiao smirked, flashing a smile at Qin Yize beside her.

While Qin Yize was reading the newspaper, he immediately sensed his wife’s gaze. He quietly reached out and held her hand, subtly reassuring her to endure a little longer; the woman would be leaving soon. Once she left, he would explain everything to his mother.

Even if Shen Manru socializes with her due to their classmate relationship, she would know the truth in her heart.

Unexpectedly, Choo Lan suddenly stood up from the sofa and began to walk towards Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei.

Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei were seated on a separate sofa, Qin Xuan was next to them, softly reciting ancient texts to the children.

Could such young kids understand?

Beside them, a cat and a wolfhound lay at their feet.

This wasn’t unusual; wealthy families often keep such pets, some even dine and sleep with their owners.

Her family had them too.

Choo Lan didn’t pay much attention, seemingly forgetting White Wolf’s intimidation at their first meeting.

She continued walking over, but unexpectedly, as she approached about five meters away from Xiao Bai and White Wolf, White Wolf suddenly stood up from its half-lying position where it seemed to be dozing.
