地震时怎样保护自己

Lu Weixi was briefly startled before Qin Zhiyou supported her back with his palm and then nodded, “Okay, we, of course, have to go home.”

The car sped away. Along the way, Lu Weixi sat in the back seat, watching the scenes outside the window, silent.

After she and Qin Zhiyou got married, they rarely returned to the Qin family mansion. When she initially broke up with Qin Zhigu, she managed to win Zhiyou from his ex-fiancee. She hated not returning to the mansion every day to show them off. But as Qin Zhigu and Cai Yiren went abroad, she gradually stopped visiting the mansion.

After all, she almost married Zhigu once, so Qin Weijian and his wife Kong Jie were nearly her in-laws. Now that her would-be in-laws have become her uncle and aunt, the servants who used to treat her as the upcoming second young madam now consider her as the eldest young madam. Even if nobody spoke of it, talks were inevitable behind closed doors. Plus, her grandfather often went out for treatment, the lady of the house, Mrs. Yang, spent most of her time abroad, and they had also bought a villa on West Mountain, all of which further detached her from the mansion.

However, when she stepped out of the car and stood in front of the Qin family mansion, eyeing the familiar surroundings, she did feel a bit emotional.

Qin Zhiyou got out of the car as well and stood beside her, watching her gaze at the flying eaves of the roof, lost in her thoughts. He squinted slightly, then quickly returned to his usual demeanor, clearing his throat softly. Startled, Lu Weixi turned to him, understanding his intentions from his faint gaze. She obediently slipped her hand into his arm, leaning against him, presenting a picture of a loving couple as they walked in together.

They passed the front courtyard and entered the grand hall, where they saw that the whole family was gathered enthusiastically around Grandfather Qin, offering tea and serving water. Their entrance did not disturb anyone, all the attention was still on the grandfather.

A servant greeted them, “Eldest Young Master, Eldest Young Madam.”

Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi nodded subtly and sat at the distant end of the sofa. The servant served tea, and Qin Zhiyou tasted it, even chatting with the servant, “This is last year’s Tie Guan Yin, isn’t it?”

The servant nodded, “Young Master is very discerning. It’s last autumn’s tea. The master has tasted this year’s tea and said it’s not good, not as fragrant as last year’s.”

Qin Zhiyou then turned to Lu Weixi, “What do you think?”

Lu Weixi tasted it and nodded.

Their conversation attracted their relatives’ attention. Qin Zhimei was the first one to comment, “Grandfather is unwell, all you care about is tea.”

Qin Zhizhi snorted contemptuously, “Exactly, they haven’t visited for months. Really devoted.”

“Zhimei, Zhizhi, say less.” Despite Qin Weijia’s reprimand, the satisfaction on his face was clear.

Ignoring them, Qin Zhiyou put down his teacup and quietly remarked, “I’m busy with work, unlike Zhimei, who is always busy with nightclubs and shopping. Or like Zhizhi, who changed another girlfriend already. His previous one came to our office two days ago demanding we return her boyfriend or else threatened with some photo scandal.”

“What did you say?” Both Zhizhi and Zhimei stood up abruptly, their faces furious.

“Stop it, you two,” Kong Jie calmed them and then turned to Grandfather Qin with a smile, “Dad, Zhigu has completed his studies abroad and has returned home. He’ll come to visit you as soon as he finishes his work.”

Hearing Qin Zhigu’s name, Qin Zhiyou’s eyes narrowed instantly and turned to Lu Weixi, waiting for her response.
