Chapter 93: Family

However, after awakening his ability, he thought he could finally hold his head high.

Unfortunately, he still couldn’t escape Mo Chenxuan’s light.

“Let’s go.” He said, leading the way to villa eight.

Less than a minute later, the two arrived at number eight’s gate.

“Why don’t they have guards?” Qin Lan couldn’t help but complain.

“Forget it. Someone is already on their way.” Qin Feng said.

A moment later, the gate opened and uncle Zhang appeared before the two.

“How may I help you?” He asked.

“I am Qin Feng and this is my sister, Qin Lan. We have come to visit my sister, Qin Wu.”

“The young madam is still sleeping. She won’t be up for a while.” Uncle Zhang informed and Qin Lan subconsciously snorted.

“Is she a pig? How can she still be sleeping at this hour?” She muttered.

“The young madam can sleep to whatever time she wants.” Uncle Zhang said, glaring at Qin Lan.

“You…, how dare a mere butler…” She started but Qin Feng interrupted her words.

“Please forgive my sister’s rudeness.” He apologised.

Qin Feng would normally not apologise to a mere butler.

However, the apocalypse was not a peaceful time and Qin Feng did not want to make unnecessary enemies.

“Please return another time.” Uncle Zhang said, wanting to close the gate.

However, neither Qin Lan no Qin Feng planned to go back without seeing Qin Wu.

“I haven’t seen my sister in a long time and would like to see her as soon as possible. Can I wait for her inside?” Qin Feng asked.

Uncle Zhang hesitated when he heard that.

He of course knew his young madam did not have a good relationship with the Qin family.

However, the young madam had plans to meet the Qin family.

Since Qin Feng and Qin Lan had come to the door, wouldn’t it be a waste of opportunity to miss the chance to meet on home court?

Thinking this way, uncle Zhang nodded and looked at the two with a serious expression.

“Like I said, my young master and young madam are still sleeping. You may have to wait for several hours.” He reminded.

“How can you let your guests wait for the hosts? Shouldn’t you wake them right away?” Qin Lan asked.

“Miss Qin can leave if she is unwilling to wait.” Uncle Zhang said.

“We will wait.” Qin Feng said, glaring at his sister.

“Follow me.” Uncle Zhang said.

After closing the gate, uncle Zhang led the way and the other two followed closely behind.

Soon after, uncle Zhang invited them to the sitting room before heading to the kitchen to prepare a pot of tea.

“Brother, this house…” Qin Lan muttered while looking around.

“It seems a little bigger than ours.” Qin Feng nodded.

The Qin family originally lived in the capital but their house was on the other side of the city

Because of this, they could only make do with the villa assigned to them when the base shifted places to the current location.

“Eight is a lucky number so villa eight is the best in this estate. It’s why many people have been eyeing it.”

Qin Lan gritted her teeth when she heard this.

’Why does Qin Wu, a fake heiress, get to live in the best villa?’ She angrily thought.

For Qin Lan, living a good life was synonymous with Qin Wu living a miserable life.

Now that Qin Wu had once again appeared in her life, Qin Lan didn’t plan to spare her.

’Qin Wu, wait for me. I will never let you live a good life.’ She thought.

At quarter past eleven, Qin Wu and Mo Chenxuan finally walked down the stairs.

“Qin Wu, it’s almost noon. How can you sleep for so long?” Qin Lan angrily questioned.

Hearing the question, Qin Wu smiled and a trace of mischief flashed in her eyes.

“I had a late night so I didn’t wake up until now.” She explained, her lips curled in a provocative smile.

“Late…” Qin Lan started but soon gritted her teeth in anger.

’This bitch!’ She silently cursed.

At the beginning, Qin Lan just wanted to steal Mo Chenxuan because she couldn’t stand that such a beautiful man was wasted on Qin Wu.

However, the more she learned about Mo Chenxuan, the more she wanted him.

Now, Qin Lan considered Mo Chenxuan as her man and the thought that Qin Wu had defiled her things made her almost mad with anger and jealousy.

“Xiaowu.” Qin Feng subconsciously muttered.

However, Qin Wu was not moved.

Originally, she and the Qin family could remain a family.

After all, blood was only one aspect of familial relationship.

Other than blood, there was also affection and sincerity.

Unfortunately, the Qin family only valued blood and didn’t care about other ties.

As a result, the Qin family did many unforgivable things, causing Qin Wu to completely be disappointed with them.

At this time, Qin Wu did not have a single trace of affection for the Qin family.

“Have young master Qin and young miss Qin had breakfast yet?” Qin Wu asked, looking at the two.

“Don’t worry about us. We ate before coming here.” Qin Feng answered and Qin Wu nodded.

“Brother Chenxuan and I will eat first.”

“Go ahead.

After that, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu went to the dining room and had breakfast as usual.

“It’s been a while since I had such a good meal.” Qin Wu exclaimed after eating her feel.

“We will prepare more breakfast foods before we go out next time.”

“What’s the use of preparing them if we can’t eat them?” Qin Wu couldn’t help but complain.

After all, their team was forced to make due with buns, noodles and pies during their last mission because team Overlord was present.

Mo Chenxuan frowned when he thought of team Overlord.

’We still need to be careful or we won’t know how we died.’ He thought, pulling Qin Wu to go to the sitting room.

“Young master Qin, young miss Qin, sorry for making you wait.” Qin Wu said as she and Mo Chenxuan sat across Qin Lan and Qin Feng.

“I heard your team has been promoted to rank A, congratulations.” Qin Feng said.

“Thank you.” Mo Chenxuan said in an indifferent way.

For him, the team rank was just a means to an end.

Considering the goals he had set for himself, he felt he had yet to do something worthy of praise.

“Is there anything my wife and I can do for the Qin family?” Mo Chenxuan asked and the Qin family couldn’t help but frown.

“Qin Wu is a daughter of the Qin family. How can she marry without the family’s approval?” Qin Lan questioned and Qin Wu sneered before she spoke.

“I have long severed ties with the Qin family.” She said.

“Xiaowu, the world has changed.” Qin Feng stated and quickly continued.

“We all made mistakes and recklessly damaged our relationship. However, we are in an apocalypse and any of us could die at any moment. Why do we have to hold stupid grudges when we could be holding hands and uniting as a family?”

“Stupid grudges?” Qin Wu almost rolled her eyes in exasperation.

“Young master Feng, some things are easy to break but impossible to mend. I think the river water should not mix with the well water.”

“Xiaowu, my Qin family is trying to mend fences but you need to meet us halfway.”

“Should my wife mend fences just because your Qin family is holding out an olive branch?” Mo Chenxuan couldn’t help but interrupt.

“Mo Chenxuan, this is the Qin family’s matter and has nothing to do with you.” Qin Feng said, glaring at Mo Chenxuan.

“You are wrong, young master Qin.” Qin Wu started in a solemn voice.

“Mo Chenxuan is my husband and everything I am has to do with him. He is the family I have chosen for myself.”

Mo Chenxuan smiled when he heard this.

As an abandoned child, Mo Chenxuan had long given up on familial ties.

However, he met and fell in love with Qin Wu.

Although he and Qin Wu were not blood relatives, they were lovers and had long chosen to be each other’s family.

“Qin Wu, grandfather, father, mother, and brother have been wanting to see you since I saw you last time. How can you be so ungrateful and refuse to see them?” Qin Lan asked in an angry voice.

“Ungrateful?” Qin Wu muttered as past images flashed in her mind.

The Qin family used to treat her very well.

However, their attitude completely changed because of Qin Lan.

All of a sudden, her beloved family became people who couldn’t recognise right or wrong and were willing to do anything to indulge their biological daughter.

Recalling the miserable days after Qin Lan returned to the Qin family, Qin Wu sighed and her eyes hardened.

“I am an orphan with no grandfather, father, mother, brother, or sister. Please do not recognise the wrong person.” She finally said.
