Chapter 27 - Momentarily Blinded (2/2)

Li Qin Yao peeled her cousin's hands away from her. ”Cousin, I know you love role-playing ever since you were a little girl, but I'm too lazy to play with you today. How about the two of you just tell me why were you looking for me?”

”Did your grandfather offer you to come back to LQ?” Zhao Wei could no longer hide her curiosity.

The corner of her lips turned up as she watched her aunt, Zhao Wei, had started to get impatient. However, she understood what her Second Auntie was worried about. If she returned to LQ Group, there might be a chance that the truth about what happened two years ago might come out. If that happened, the person who would be in trouble would be...

”Whether grandfather offered me to come back to LQ or not, what does it have to do with you?” Li Qin Yao smiled.

”Li Qin Yao, I'm warning you. If you come back to LQ headquarters, the shareholders will not agree to it,” Zhao Wei said. ”You should not put your grandfather in a tight spot, trying to convince others to have you return.”

”You worry too much. Of course, I am not going back to LQ headquarters,” Li Qin Yao answered. After all, she was going to help her grandfather with a new branch in B City.

Zhao Wei looked at her niece, dubiously. ”Are you telling me the truth.”

Li Qin Yao nodded. ”Of course,” she moved her gaze and pretended to look at something behind the mother and daughter. Li Qin Yao smiled widely and continued, ”Right, Grandfather?”

The mother and daughter stiffened. They straightened their posture before they turned around with a polite smile on their faces. But the smile on their face swiftly disappeared once they found out that there was no one behind them.

Li Qin Yao chuckled when she saw the annoyed expression on both mother and daughter. She took a few steps backward as she finally escaped from the two.

”Li Qin Yao! You lied to me?”

”Aiya, Second Auntie, I did not lie to you. I was staring too much at my cousin's glittery dress that I was momentarily blinded. I thought I saw grandfather, but I had seen wrongly.” Li Qin Yao smiled. ”I better get back inside before the event begin.” She nodded to her aunt and turned around to make her escape.

Zhao Wei could only point her finger in anger as she watched the girl walked away.
