What a load of nonsense. As if she was the only one who knew how to talk rubbish. When Qin Mei started spouting it, she was truly in a class of her own.
Jie Jingchen's eyes flickered. He lowered his gaze to watch Qin Mei, who was spouting utter nonsense with a perfectly straight face. He had to admit, she was so convincing that forget Granny—even he almost believed her.
Granny didn't question Qin Mei. She couldn't find a single flaw in her story and was extremely frustrated. 'I was too hasty, too rash. I should have taken things slow, like boiling a frog in warm water.'
'I should have found a way to let An Qi move in first, let her and Qin Xiang get to know each other. But now, thanks to my impatience, I've completely botched it.'
"Your younger brother's child bride and my An Qi—who's prettier?" Granny asked, dejected.
Qin Mei was about to say the child bride, but on second thought, she changed her mind. "An Qi."
Granny's eyes lit up, a glimmer of hope rekindled within her.
