Xie Ziyun looked around and didn't see He Shen, so she asked, "Where is your brother He?"

Jiang Mingrui: "Brother He went to a nearby supermarket to buy some barbecue seasonings. When we were counting the ingredients just now, we found that some were missing."

"Oh, then you guys help me take care of my cousin here. I just received a notice from the company. I'm going to call her back. Don't bully her." Xie Ziyun said to them.

"Sister, go and do whatever you want. I'll be fine here." Lin Qing said with a smile.

Xie Ziyun patted Lin Qing on the shoulder and turned back to make a phone call.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. We promise to take good care of your cousin." Li Ran said solemnly.

When Jiang Mingrui saw Li Ran looking at Lin Qing with absent-minded eyes and his attentive look, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. He was really afraid that Li Ran would scare his sister-in-law's cousin.

Jiang Mingrui even had an urge to kick over Li Ran's stool to wake him up. He even dared to covet his sister-in-law's cousin.

After Xie Ziyun left, Lin Qing clearly felt Li Ran's excessive enthusiasm and felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

Just then, she saw her aunt busy skewering the barbecue food, so she decided to get up and go over to help, "Aunt, let me help you."

When the aunt saw Lin Qing just now, she was also amazed by her beauty, and secretly sighed in her heart: This girl is even more beautiful than the young lady!

"Oh, no, that won't do. I can do this job. What if your hands get dirty? If you feel bored, just watch and chat with me." The aunt waved her hand and refused.

"Okay, I won't skewer the meat, I'll skewer the leeks. We used to do our own barbecue often." Lin Qing explained.

After hearing this, the aunt stopped trying to stop Lin Qing.

"See, you scared away your sister-in-law's cousin." Jiang Mingrui raised his foot and kicked Li Ran hard. Due to Li Ran's quick reaction, the kick did not knock him to the ground.

Li Ran showed an innocent expression and said, "Don't you think she is charming? She seems to exude a unique charm that makes me want to talk to her and care about her."

Jiang Mingrui cast a disdainful look at Li Ran and said, "Even so, you can't be so obvious! Can you restrain yourself a little bit!"

Li Ran scratched his head and replied with a smile: "Okay, okay, I will be careful. But seriously, is my cousin prettier than Brother Lu's girlfriend? How about we make a bet?"

Hearing this, Jiang Mingrui rolled his eyes helplessly and responded: "Boring!"

Li Ran stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "But I'm really curious about what Brother Lu's girlfriend looks like! I'm so looking forward to it. Hey, why hasn't Brother Lu arrived yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ran saw He Shen and Lu Yanqi walking towards him not far ahead.

Li Ran immediately stood up excitedly. He looked back and forth between the two of them, but did not find any girl next to Lu Yanqi.

"Didn't we agree to bring my second sister-in-law to meet everyone?" Li Ran complained somewhat disappointedly.

So he shouted to Lu Yanqi, "Brother Lu, didn't you say you would bring your second sister-in-law with you? Where is she?"

After hearing Li Ran's call, Lu Yanqi stopped talking with He Shen.

He looked up at Li Ran and said, "She will be here a little later, you guys play first."

Li Ran sighed helplessly: "Ah, I finally waited for you to come, but in the end you were the only one here. What a bummer!"

Lin Qing, who was stringing leeks carefully at this time, suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from behind her. The voice was clear and warm, which instantly made her heart beat faster.

She did not turn her head immediately, but continued with her work with a little nervousness, fearing that all this was just an illusion of her auditory hallucination.

When the voice rang out again, she could no longer ignore it, and she felt a mixture of nervousness and excitement.

She turned around involuntarily, and when she saw that familiar face, Lin Qing was stunned. It was indeed him!

Her eyes were full of surprise and confusion, and she asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Boss Lu, why are you here?"

Lu Yanqi also did not expect to meet Lin Qing here, especially when he suddenly heard Lin Qing's pleasant voice, he was completely stunned.

His heart was filled with astonishment and joy, and then he quickly walked to Lin Qing's side, his eyes full of disbelief and joy.

"Why are you here too?" His voice was full of surprise and tenderness.

Lin Qing's face was filled with a bright smile, and he replied: "Didn't I tell you that I would come to my cousin's house this afternoon?"

At this moment, He Shen, who was standing by, also noticed Lin Qing's presence. He was also very surprised and couldn't help but ask, "So, you are Ziyun's cousin?"

Lin Qing then turned his gaze to He Shen and recognized at a glance that the person in front of him was the Doctor He whom he met in the hospital.

Thinking back to what Lu Yanqi said about the party at Dr. He's house tonight and the male protagonist in the wedding photos she had just seen, she suddenly realized that this Dr. He was her cousin's husband!

Lin Qing tried to calm himself down, tried to make his smile look more natural, and greeted, "Hello, brother-in-law!"

After these three words came out, the three of them looked at each other, seemed to understand the reason, and then laughed together.

Lu Yanqi couldn't hold back his inner impulse. He reached out and gently pinched Lin Qing's cheek, questioning her in a low voice, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were here?"

Lin Qing quickly turned her face away, her cheeks flushed with shyness, and answered in a low voice: "I don't know either."

Li Ran, who was standing next to him, was completely confused. He stared at everything happening in front of him in amazement.

My cousin actually knows Brother Lu?!

And my cousin also calls Brother Lu "Mr. Lu"!

That means my cousin works for Lu Group.

Li Ran was secretly delighted, as he finally had a legitimate reason to go to Lu's company to visit his cousin.

But isn’t Brother Lu a little too close to his cousin? What about his gentlemanly demeanor?

He couldn't wait to interrupt and said, "So my cousin and Brother Lu know each other, that's great!"

However, Jiang Mingrui looked at the scene in front of him meaningfully. He understood at a glance the special relationship between Lin Qing and Lu Yanqi. They were definitely more than just ordinary friends.

Lu Yanqi turned around and nodded to Li Ran without hesitation, saying, "I know him."

Li Ran frowned, a trace of doubt appeared on his face, and asked: "Even if you know her, you can't touch your cousin! Where is your gentlemanly manners? Aren't you afraid that your second sister-in-law will know?"
