Chapter 290: Chapter 291: Planning to Stay Angry with Him for a Lifetime?

In her astonishment, Feng Jinglei was about to speak when she unexpectedly caught a glimpse of the somewhat mournful expression on the side of her face, looking somewhat desolate and lonely.

And her eyes…

Following her gaze downward, it was clear that her attention was fixed on Sijue’s face.

This look wasn’t one of fear towards Sijue, but rather seemed like she was missing someone.

But hadn’t Weiwei offended him, and wasn’t she afraid of being discovered by him here?

Downstairs, Qin Sijue was sitting on the couch, conversing with Mrs. Qin.

He seemed to sense a strong gaze fixed upon himself.

His brows furrowed, he abruptly looked up, glancing towards the second floor.

At the quiet railing, there was no one to be seen.

Was it his imagination?

By that time, Feng Jinglei had already brought Gu Qiangwei back to the master bedroom.

“Qiangwei, if Sijue and grandma stay in the living room, you’ll have no way to leave. I’ve thought about it, you wait here for now. I’ll go downstairs and draw them away to the birthday hall, then you can sneak out when the time is right, understand?”

Looking at Feng Jinglei, Gu Qiangwei was very grateful in her heart.

“Okay, thank you.”

With a smile, Feng Jinglei turned and left the master bedroom, coming down to the living room.

“Grandma! Sijue, you’re here.”

Seeing Feng Jinglei descend, Mrs. Qin hastily stood up and walked towards her, “Jinglei, you must be careful, this is a crucial time indeed!”

With a smile, Feng Jinglei said, “Grandma, you’ve been saying it’s a critical time since I became pregnant!”

“Of course, this is my first great-grandchild, every single minute of the day is critical!” Mrs. Qin said proudly, looking forward to the arrival of her first great-grandchild.

The elderly lady took the initiative to help her sit down on the sofa.

“Come, be careful.”

“Grandma, you’re spoiling me!”

“Spoiling or not, as long as you and the child are safe, that’s all that matters to me.”

Sitting down on the couch, Feng Jinglei naturally glanced at Qin Sijue, who remained quiet and silent, before turning to Mrs. Qin, “Grandma, have all the guests started to arrive one after another?”

Hearing this, Mrs. Qin glanced out the window in the direction of the villa’s east side, where the birthday hall was located.

“They should have; it’s no trouble, your grandfather and Mo are there entertaining.”

“Then shall we go as well? On this special day, it wouldn’t be the same without the birthday star,” she suggested.

Mrs. Qin, delighted by the suggestion, agreed, “That’s true, let’s go too.”

As they stood up,

Mrs. Qin glanced at Qin Sijue who showed no intention of moving from the sofa, “Grandson, aren’t you going?”

Qin Sijue looked up, his cold face betraying no emotion as he simply stated, “No.”

Mrs. Qin was taken aback, about to speak.

But on second thought, maybe he didn’t want to go precisely because he knew his grandfather was there?

If it weren’t for her 80th birthday, perhaps her grandson wouldn’t have planned to come back at all.

“My grandson,” the old lady softened her tone, “after all, he is your grandfather. Do you really intend to be angry with him for a lifetime?”

Qin Sijue lifted his gaze deeply, replying without hesitation, “Of course.”

At hearing this, Mrs. Qin was speechless.

Then, like a wronged young girl, “But he is still your own grandfather…”

Qin Sijue said nothing, his deep, unwavering eyes fixed on Mrs. Qin, the message was clear.

Mrs. Qin gave in, “Okay, okay, I’ll stop!”
