They were all familiar with Old Lady Leng, and knew the Leng Family was no ordinary family. Many people with ulterior motives had tried to cling to them. Years ago, a close friend of Old Lady Leng had used her to become attached to the Leng Family and even tried to seduce Old Master Leng. Since that incident, Old Lady Leng had been somewhat wary and distant towards many people. Yet now, with Qin Qin, they truly felt Old Lady Leng’s warmth and fondness for her, which was indeed astonishing.
"Yes, if there’s anything you need in the future, you can come to me," Old Master Leng said to Qin Qin with a smile.
"Yes," Qin Qin answered with a nod.
"Dad, Mom!" A middle-aged man dressed in a sharp suit and a fashionable, elegant middle-aged woman approached.
"Daddy, Mommy," Leng Yueyou greeted happily as she saw the newcomers.
The middle-aged man gave Leng Yueyou a loving smile, while the middle-aged woman tidied her hair, "Why are you home so early today? Didn’t you say there was work at the store?"
A hint of pain flashed in Leng Yueyou’s eyes, which she quickly masked with a smile, "I finished the work, so I came back."
Although Leng Yueyou was a daughter of the Leng Family, she stood on her own two feet and ran a clothing store outside, which was doing quite well.
Father Leng and Mother Leng approached Leng Yueyou, and upon seeing Qin Qin, asked, "Dad, Mom, who is this?"
Mother Leng’s beautiful eyes shifted toward Qin Qin, her gaze similar to Old Master Leng’s first reaction upon seeing Qin Qin—appraising and slightly guarded.
"This is the girl who saved your mother’s life, Qin Qin," Old Master Leng told his son and daughter-in-law.
Father Leng was a handsome middle-aged man. Hearing what his father said, his expression turned solemn as he regarded Qin Qin, "Miss Qin, thank you for saving my mother."
Mother Leng’s gaze softened as the doubts and wariness faded. If the most discerning Old Master Leng had spoken, naturally, they would accept her.
"Alright, from now on Qin Qin is a distinguished guest of our family. I will not allow any of you to bully her, understand?" Old Lady Leng glanced towards her son and daughter-in-law.
The look in Father Leng and Mother Leng’s eyes shifted as they looked at Qin Qin; they couldn’t help but be surprised as both Old Master Leng and Old Lady Leng had acknowledged her.
"Let’s go inside, we’ve been standing outside for too long," Old Master Leng said, and only then did Old Lady Leng belatedly and affectionately take Qin Qin’s hand.
"I’m sorry, Grandma Leng actually forgot," Old Lady Leng said apologetically as she led Qin Qin into the villa.
Seeing Old Lady Leng leave, Old Master Leng hurriedly followed, a trace of lament on his face. The arrival of a young girl had caused his wife to abandon him—truly heart-breaking.
Father Leng and Mother Leng exchanged a look, both filled with confusion.
With a smile, Leng Yueyou said to her parents, "Dad, Mom, are you surprised? I am, too."
"When has Mom ever been this enthusiastic about an outsider?" Mother Leng’s face, always composed, was now filled with disbelief.
"Let’s go inside and see. If Dad and Mom approve of this Miss Qin, we shouldn’t provoke her. If we later find out she harbors any malicious intent, we’ll address it then," Father Leng stated, looking towards the villa, where he could faintly hear Old Lady Leng’s laughter. It had been a long time since he had heard his mother laugh so joyously. This Miss Qin was not simple.
He hoped she was not coveting the Leng Family’s wealth.
"Dad, I think Qin Qin is not like that. Grandma said that if it hadn’t been for Qin Qin today, she might not have been able to return," Leng Yueyou spoke to her parents.
"What? What do you mean?" Mother Leng frowned, asking her daughter.
"I’m not entirely sure, but Grandma said Qin Qin’s medical skills are superb, even better than the healers in the Divine Doctor Sect," Leng Yueyou replied, though she too was somewhat reluctant to believe it. The healers of the Divine Doctor Sect were very impressive; for Qin Qin to be even more talented was extraordinary.
"Impossible?" Father Leng’s face had yet to recover from the shock.
A servant approached and informed them that Old Lady Leng had summoned them inside.
The three hurriedly entered the villa.
Inside the villa, Qin Qin was warmly hosted by Old Lady Leng, who inquired about her favorite fruits one moment, and what she would like to drink the next.
Qin Qin sat on the sofa, enjoying the best tea served by a servant, which ironically, was the Spiritual Tea produced in her own space. They must have bought it from the Top-Grade Heavenly Fragrance, which indeed sold tea leaves at very high prices, available only to platinum members.
To think that the tea she was drinking at the Leng Family’s home was the tea sold by the Top-Grade Heavenly Fragrance.
