Lin Wenyi's tone was so natural that it seemed as if he were the master of this house.
Zhao Youting's temper flared up instantly, but he still managed to hold it back. Qin Qiaor also felt a bit uncomfortable upon hearing this, but she had no choice but to sit between the two of them.
Zhao Youting and Lin Wenyi sat opposite each other, with Qin Qiaor and the two kids in the middle. The atmosphere among the five of them became extremely awkward.
Lin Wenyi spoke first. He started to ask Qin Qiaor about her well - being, inquiring if anything had happened to her during this period. Since she had been abroad, he wasn't quite informed.
Qin Qiaor answered his questions awkwardly. After that, the atmosphere between them remained extremely stagnant. Although Lin Wenyi seemed quite natural while talking to Qin Qiaor, everyone except him wore an embarrassed look on their faces. Especially Zhao Youting, who just sat there quietly without saying a word, but the aura he exuded was hard to ignore.
It wasn't until Lin Wenyi received a phone call saying that there was something urgent in the company and he had to leave early.
After Lin Wenyi left, Zhao Youting finally showed his true emotions, looking extremely scary. He had been hiding his feelings when Lin Wenyi was there.
But as soon as Lin Wenyi left, his face turned cold instantly. Qin Wanwan and Qin Chenchen were also very scared when they saw Zhao Youting's expression. Although they didn't know what had upset him, they instinctively felt that Zhao Youting was angry.
So they didn't stay in the living room any longer and went straight back to their rooms. For a moment, only Zhao Youting and Qin Qiaor were left in the living room.
"Did you mean moving out to live with Lin Wenyi?" Zhao Youting asked threateningly.
"Of course not. You saw it yourself. I just rented his house. He just comes over occasionally to check on me and bring me some stuff. There's nothing more between us," Qin Qiaor explained in a flurry.
But no matter how she explained, Zhao Youting only believed what he had seen with his own eyes. He probably felt that Lin Wenyi and Qin Qiaor had gone beyond the relationship of ordinary friends.
Ordinary friends wouldn't be able to enter each other's houses casually. If Qin Qiaor didn't have a boyfriend, it might be okay. But now that they were together, he had every right to tell Qin Qiaor that he was unhappy.
When he was angry because of Lin Wenyi and Qin Qiaor before, Zhao Youting wasn't in a relationship with Qin Qiaor yet, so his reasons for being angry seemed rather weak.
But now they were about to get married, and he was even the biological father of the two kids. So he simply couldn't tolerate his woman living in someone else's house.
He said domineeringly to Qin Qiaor, "Move out right now. If you don't want to live in my house, it doesn't matter. I can help you find a new one. As long as you don't stay here."
Unexpectedly, Qin Qiaor refused. She thought it would be too troublesome to move back and forth. Moreover, she had a hunch that she would be able to convince Qin Wanwan and Qin Chenchen in no time.
"Let's not do that. It's too much trouble. I think Qin Wanwan will figure it out soon. After they do, we'll move to your place quickly."
Besides, Qin Qiaor felt a bit sorry for Lin Wenyi. He had been kind enough to let her live in his house, but she seemed ungrateful.
It had already been a hassle to move in at that time, and Lin Wenyi had helped her a great deal. But now she was going to move out not long after.
However, Zhao Youting wouldn't listen at all. "I don't care how you talk to Qin Wanwan and Qin Chenchen. I think the best solution now is for you to move to my place quickly.
As long as we spend time together every day, they will surely accept me. After all, we're blood - related. I don't believe they could be so heartless."
But Qin Qiaor always thought that they should discuss this with Qin Wanwan and Qin Chenchen first before making a decision. It definitely wouldn't work to just say they were moving to Zhao Youting's place directly.
So Qin Qiaor had no choice but to say to Zhao Youting, "Let me discuss this with the two kids first. I can't make the decision on my own."
Zhao Youting was already so angry, but Qin Qiaor still couldn't give him a definite answer. She didn't even try to soothe him and calm him down with a white lie.
But Qin Qiaor didn't do that. She just rationally told Zhao Youting that she had to ask the two kids before giving him an answer.
Zhao Youting now felt that he didn't matter at all. Even though he was so angry, Qin Qiaor didn't consider his feelings, making him seem like he was being unreasonable.
Zhao Youting was so angry that he laughed. He stood up directly. "Do as you like." Then he slammed the door and left.
Qin Qiaor stood there stunned, watching Zhao Youting leave her house. When she came to her senses and chased after him, she found that Zhao Youting had already gotten into his car and driven away.
She fell into deep self - blame and anxiety, not knowing how to ease the tension between them or how to mend their relationship.
In the following days, Zhao Youting kept avoiding Qin Qiaor. Originally, during the filming of *Journey Together*, Zhao Youting would always try his best to be on the same frame as Qin Qiaor.
But he had been absent from the recent shootings, saying that he had something to attend to in his company and thus couldn't continue to be Qin Qiaor's agent. The program crew understood him, for he was not only the boss of the talent agency but also the president of another company.
During these days, Qin Qiaor's schedule was always accompanied by Tu Qinqin and her assistant. The materials filmed by the program crew were mainly about Qin Qiaor and Tu Qinqin's daily interactions.
