Chapter 49 I Promise You a Lifetime of Happiness 12

"Shu-shu, thank you so much for making this trip."

The secretary, dressed in a professional skirt, was dignified and elegant. She accepted the file bag from Qu Yi with a grateful expression.

Qu Yi waved her hand and said, "Anyway, I'm free today."

The secretary smiled and said, "I'm so sorry to disturb your rest time since you're on vacation today. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

After exchanging a few polite words with her, Qu Yi drove away.

As she passed a store, she noticed a long queue. Just then, the light turned red, and she turned around to look.

【King of Chestnuts】

It turned out to be a roasted chestnut shop, but there were so many people queuing up.

Qu Yi lowered her eyes, recalling some past events.

"Sister! I found this place that makes really delicious roasted chestnuts. I thought they had really closed down completely."

"Gu Yifan, how old are you?"

"What does age have to do with eating chestnuts? Besides, I'm only 30. Here, let me peel one for you."

Before she could even speak, he stuffed a hot chestnut into her mouth, and she had no choice but to chew and swallow it.

"Is it good?" The man looked at her with bright, sparkling eyes, wanting to hear her opinion.

Logically speaking, the Horsens family is such a large and complex family with many affairs. As the head of the family, he should be working hard. However, all these things seem to have only added a few wrinkles to the corners of his eyes. In fact, he sometimes acts like a child.

She said, "It's delicious."

The young man smiled upon hearing this.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the light turn green, and Qu Yi snapped out of his thoughts, started the car, and drove into the intersection on the right.

"elder sister!"

Qu Yi recognized the voice and turned around to see Yang Xi calling her with a smile.

Qu Yi frowned immediately. So far, there have only been two people who have called her "sister".

She accepted those two.

The person in front of me is...

"My name is Qu Yi, just call me by my name."

"Sister Qu".

Qu Yi's brows furrowed even more, but she didn't say anything more.

"Sister Qu, are you here to buy chestnuts too?"

"Ah."

Qu Yi took the bag from the shop assistant and could feel the heat even through the bag.

She paid, nodded to Yang Xi, and turned to leave.

Yang Xi stood there watching her for a while, then picked up her phone and opened her chat with Xu Zuo.

From the messages above, it's clear that she was the one sending the messages to Xu Zuo, and Xu Zuo replied politely but in a very cold manner.

Thinking about Xu Zuo's attitude towards Qu Yi, and comparing it to her own, she felt a deep sense of resentment.

[Xu Zuo, have you arrived at Sister Qu's house yet?]

Xu Zuo leaned against the door, his brows furrowing as he read the message.

He didn't like being called that by others.

Just as Xu Zuo was about to put down his phone, Yang Xi sent another message.

I just saw Sister Qu.

Where did you see it?

Yang Xi knew that Xu Zuo would definitely reply to the second message, but when he actually replied instantly, she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

How pathetic she was, waiting for his message, and finally he replied, only to find it was because of another woman.

Upon learning that Yang Xi had seen Qu Yi at the chestnut stall, he wondered: "My sister actually likes chestnuts? Are they delicious?"

Forgive him for being abroad for so long and never having eaten it.

Qu Yi returned to her residence, stepped out of the elevator, and saw Xu Zuo leaning against the wall, looking down at his phone.

"elder sister!"

Xu Zuo looked up, his eyes immediately lighting up.

Qu Yi nodded slightly: "Did you need something?"

Xu Zuo pouted: "Can't I come to you for no reason?" Before Qu Yi could answer, he picked up the bag in his hand and shook it, saying, "I queued up today and bought Chen's braised duck. I brought it over for you to try."

Qu Yi opened the door: "Don't you know the password? Why don't you go in yourself?"

Xu Zuo followed her inside and said with a smile, "I'm afraid my sister will think I'm a bad person."

"...A bad person like you?"

Qu Yi looked him up and down, her gaze unreadable.

Xu Zuo smiled broadly: "Is this a compliment on my looks, sister?"

Qu Yi: "You can think of it that way."

Xu Zuo looked at the shoes that belonged to her in the shoe cabinet. Next to them was a different pair, which were the shoes he had brought over last time.

"I thought my sister had thrown these shoes away."

"Throw it now?"

"No way!" Xu Zuo quickly changed his shoes and put them on. "I'll be coming to visit again in the future!"
