The moment the two finished speaking, Jiang Jie’s body trembled involuntarily.
Han Haoming? A police officer?
He couldn’t be Han Shan’s…
Jiang Jie dared not think further.
Impossible. Absolutely not. How could there be such a coincidence in this world?
Seeing the young people discussing the form of address, Qin Xiuzhi also chuckled from the side, “Yes. Xiao Han, you should call him Big Brother, just like Si Yue.”
Han Haoming glanced at Qin Si Yue again before calling out, “Big Brother.”
“En. Welcome to the Qin family as a guest.” Qin Si Ye offered a slight smile at the corner of his lips and extended a hand to him.
Just then, Chenchen suddenly ran to Yin Xi and asked loudly, “Mommy,姑姑’s boyfriend, why does he look so familiar?”
“Wasn’t he the police officer who went with you to Daddy’s company to pick me up on the day we returned to the country?”
Yanyan and Shuoshuo also ran over. Yanyan, quick-witted, spoke first, “Mommy, he looks like him too. He even went to Hua Ban Li that day to investigate Chen Ge’s disappearance.”
“Yes, it’s him.” Yin Xi hadn’t expected the children’s memories to be so good. She smiled and continued to the three little darlings, “Actually, Mommy knew him five years ago. Quickly, call him Uncle Han.”
“Hello, Uncle Han!” The three children bowed slightly and called out in unison.
“En. Hello to all of you!” Han Haoming said with a full smile, looking at each of them, and finally turned his gaze to Yin Xi, “Yin Xi, they are truly adorable.”
Xu Zhilan interjected with a chuckle, “Xiao Han, I know you and Xi Xi are friends, and you can call her by her name now, but from now on, you’ll have to call her Sister-in-law.”
Although this statement seemed casual, it carried a double meaning.
First, Yin Xi would undoubtedly become a daughter-in-law of the Qin family. Second, she was also very satisfied with Han Haoming and hoped that he and Si Yue would tie the knot soon.
Everyone present, except for Jiang Jie whose expression was somewhat complex, was very happy to hear this.
Even Qin Xiuzhi’s expression was gentle, as if he had already tacitly agreed to these two matters.
At this moment, he noticed Jiang Jie’s slightly displeased expression and recalled that Si Yue hadn’t introduced her to Han Haoming just now.
He opened his mouth and said, “Si Yue, why didn’t you introduce your Aunt Jiang to Xiao Han?”
“I…” Qin Si Yue couldn’t help but glance at his elder brother. Meeting his slightly cold gaze, he hesitated.
Suddenly, Butler Sun entered and announced, “Young Master, Miss Meng is here.”
“What is she doing here?” Qin Si Ye frowned upon hearing this.
Qin Xiuzhi, however, said, “I asked her to come. Qi Qi hasn’t visited the Qin family in a long time. Since everyone is here today, it would be nice to liven things up.
Besides, I mentioned last time that when Si Yue brings her boyfriend home, she should be invited.”
Qin Si Ye’s expression darkened. Recalling Meng Qi’s recent actions, he felt a surge of anger and was about to intervene when he caught Yin Xi’s subtly suggestive glance. He finally managed to squeeze out a few words,
“Let her in.”
Meng Qi walked in with delight. After exchanging greetings with everyone, her gaze fell upon Han Haoming, and her heart skipped a beat.
Wasn’t this man the Captain Han who had questioned her and Bai Lin at the South City Branch that night?
How could he be Qin Si Yue’s boyfriend?
No wonder Yin Xi was released so quickly that day; perhaps it was also due to his involvement?
It seemed they were on the same “team.”
She had to be more careful in her actions today.
“Si Yue, is this your boyfriend? He’s so handsome!” Meng Qi pretended not to recognize him, then turned to Qin Xiuzhi and said,
“Uncle Qin, I was just saying, with Si Yue’s taste, how could her boyfriend be subpar?
You even asked me to come and vet him. I think the Qin family must be very satisfied, right?”
