Chapter 40: 40: The One Who Should Leave is Not You

A pair of enchanting eyes surveyed the few people in the room who were still standing.

Her pink lips curled up in a playful smile and she said, “Don’t do this, it’s bad luck for you all to watch me eat – and worse, it’s affecting my appetite…”

“Bang

Unable to stand it any longer, Qin MO swept away the bowl in front of her, slamming his hand hard against the table. “How could I have raised such an ungrateful wretch as you! Are you trying to drive me to my grave?!”

Qin Mo’s face turned from green to purple with rage.

All were startled by his sudden outburst. Sensing the tense atmosphere, the butler swiftly instructed all the servants in the dining room to leave.

Qin Youxuan glanced at Jin Lan, who was still standing off to the side. Jin Lan was first taken aback, and then a triumphant smile spread across her face. Her eyes narrowed.

She got up languidly, a cold laugh escaping her lips.

“Dad, don’t blame me for something so grave. You’re still alive and well. The one who was driven to death is my mom!”

“What, cat got your tongue? Don’t tell me you didn’t know?” Qin Youxuan pointed viciously at Jin Lan, venom in her eyes. “My mother was driven to her death by this woman. And now, you’ve welcomed this mother and son back into our home. Are you really expecting me to welcome them with open arms?

Dream on!” “Regardless of the circumstances, Ye’er is still your elder brother…”

“Elder brother?”

Qin Youxuan exclaimed, her voice filled with exaggerated laughter. “An illegitimate child older than me – and I’m supposed to call him my elder brother?”

Her mocking laughter echoed around the room, grating on the ears. Qin Mo’s face darkened further.

Jin Chenye apparently hadn’t expected the scene to unfold this way. Hearing the term ‘elder brother’ uttered with such blatant derision, he felt a painful twinge in his heart.

His handsome face stiffened slightly, a trace of unhappiness flickering in his eyes. His lips parted to say, “I just remembered I have some matters to attend to since I’ve just returned home. I’ll head to my room first.” “Ye’er!” Jin Lan cried in alarm.

“Stay!” Quinn MO shouted, “The one who should leave isn’t you!”

When the words left Quin Mo t s mouth, everyone present was stunned.

Qin Youxuan never thought that she would hear such words from his mouth.

Right, they were a family of three. She was the outsider. If she didn’t leave, who should?

With teary eyes, Qin Youxuan glared at everyone in the room. When her eyes landed on the sympathetic gaze of the butler, she felt tears welling up.

She clenched her teeth, refusing to let the tears fall, and turned to exit the dining room.

“Xuan…” Jin Chenye was taken aback and extended his hand to stop her. But she forcefully brushed him off. Before he could catch up with her, Jin Lan grabbed him.

“If you dare to go after that wench, I’ll kill myself right in front of you!” Jin Lan held tightly onto Jin Chenye’s arm and growled these words in a low voice.

“…” Jin Chenye paused in his tracks, looking down in disbelief at his own mother.

While he hesitated, Qin Youxuan had rushed back to her room, grabbed her bag, and left through the front door.

When Jin Chenye snapped back to reality, he heard the sound of a car engine starting up.

By the time he summoned the will to give chase, her figure had already vanished from sight…

His body suddenly felt weak.

The car sped along the road, the pedal to the floor – like an arrow off its string, the landscape outside the windows blurred as it passed.

The cold wind poured in through the windows, causing an involuntary shiver.

A blurred figure flashed in front of her. Startled, Qin Youxuan stomped hard on the brakes..
