733 Pestering
When Luo Xiujuan saw Qin Xi, the nervousness in her heart was finally relieved. The feeling of being spied on also disappeared. She involuntarily heaved a sigh of relief.
“Xi, you’re here! Hurry up and see if there’s anything else that needs adjustment.”
She smiled awkwardly at Qi Mingting and pulled Qin Xi to the side. Seeing that Qi Mingting was looking at her with a smile, she panicked. She pursed her lips and whispered to Qin Xi, “Xi, look at that man. He’s here again. Can you get him to leave?”
Qin Xi pretended not to know the reason and asked, “Why? Isn’t Mr. Qi good?”
“How would I know if he’s good or not? I just feel that the way he looks at me makes me very uncomfortable. Xi, since you know him, tell him!” Luo Xiujuan sighed helplessly.
Seeing the worried look on her face, Qin Xi thought for a moment and asked, “Mom, haven’t you thought about starting another relationship? Don’t worry, Stone and I won’t stop you from finding new love. I believe Grandpa won’t either. You’re still young and don’t have to spend all your time on us. You have to think about yourself.”
Luo Xiujuan’s expression changed slightly. “I’m fine alone. I’m grateful that I was able to marry Stone’s father. As for other men… I’ve never thought of them.”
Qin Xi did not expect Luo Xiujuan to be so devoted to Han Shi’s father that she did not even give other men a chance. After thinking for a moment, she stopped persuading her. She could not force a relationship. If she were in her shoes, she would probably be indifferent to men other than Han Shi.
“Alright, Mom, I’ll tell him about this.”
“Then I’ll go to the kitchen to take a look.” With that, Luo Xiujuan smiled politely at Qi Mingting and turned to go to the kitchen.
Qin Xi sat opposite Qi Mingting and looked at him seriously. “Mr. Qi, are you serious about my mother?”
Qi Mingting was silent for a moment before saying, “I’ve never been so serious. At my age, I no longer have any desire for love until I met her…”
He glanced in the direction of the kitchen, his expression affectionate and his eyes passionate. “She’s beautiful and she’s demure. Every move she makes seems to tug at my heart. Although I don’t know if she’ll accept me, at least, I want to try my best.”
Seeing the sincerity in his eyes, Qin Xi couldn’t help but sigh. “My mother-in-law… won’t accept you. Your relentless pursuit makes her feel uneasy and nervous.”
Qi Mingting pursed his lips. “To be honest, I don’t know how to woo a girl. I asked my son and he said that all it takes is one thing to woo a girl.”
Qin Xi raised her eyebrows curiously. “What?”
“Shamelessness.”
Qin Xi almost couldn’t hold back the laughter.
Qi Mingting said very seriously, “He said that as long as you’re shameless, you can get any woman you want.”
“That’s why you’re pestering her?” The corners of Qin Xi’s mouth twitched and she couldn’t help but laugh. “Don’t you think it’s very inappropriate to pester a woman who’s almost 40 years old?”
Qi Mingting said awkwardly, “Maybe it’s because I don’t know how to woo a girl.”
Qin Xi said, “Mr. Qi, let me put it this way. My mother doesn’t seem to like you very much. Your action has put a lot of pressure on her. Do you understand what I mean?”
Qi Mingting’s eyes dimmed. “I understand. I can tell that she doesn’t like me very much.”
