After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Chapter 428



Ji Fei’s radar went off.

【Oh ho? I haven’t even found Qin Xian’s enemies yet, but I already ran into my love rival? What are you looking at? Keep staring, and let me tell you, Qin Xian isn’t yours—he’s mine!】

Even though she was internally cursing, her expression remained friendly as she sweetly leaned against her husband’s arm.

“It’s just a little tickle in my throat, nothing serious.”

Qin Xian, of course, heard her thoughts. Seeing Ji Fei smugly flaunting her position, his heart instantly swelled with warmth. He looked at her with a doting smile.

Qin Lao’er’s family: It absolutely has to be yours!

Yu Lu’s expression flickered with discomfort.

In the end, Lü Meihe could only joke, “Are you just mesmerized by how good-looking your brother and sister-in-law are?”

Whether or not they understood what just happened, the people around them all laughed along.

Yu Lu finally muttered, albeit reluctantly, “Qin Xian-gege is good-looking.”

Ji Fei: So?

This time, even Lü Meihe felt awkward. She gave Ji Fei an apologetic smile before turning to lightly smack her daughter on the head. Then, she dragged Yu Lu away to greet the others.

Qin Xian wrapped an arm around Ji Fei and pulled her to sit down. Still dissatisfied, Ji Fei leaned in close and gently bit his earlobe. When she saw the entire ear turn red, she was finally satisfied, but she still pretended to be mad and scolded, “You disaster of beauty!”

Qin Xian put on an innocent expression and gazed at her, then lowered his head and nuzzled her nose affectionately. The display of affection made everyone else want to look away, but they were already used to it.

Meanwhile, Qin Lao’er’s family was in a rather good mood. Lü Meihe had no problem with it—so long as the big family remained harmonious, she was fine.

Of course, they were also aware that Ji Fei’s system wasn’t always entirely accurate. The last incident had already proven its flaws. However, when it came to matters with direct agency, the system’s readings were usually true. Unexpected circumstances aside, they could at least confirm that, in Lü Meihe’s memories, she had never harmed Qin Xian.

But there was one thing everyone still found suspicious. Ji Fei was also making her own calculations.

To rule out all doubts, Ji Fei had to go over the situation again.

【Her old online lover just so happened to be her future psychologist? That much of a coincidence? Why is this information so vague? Is it not important? System, are you even reliable?!】 Ji Fei was starting to get irritated.

She had to say, the system usually provided information in a way that made eating melons absolutely thrilling.

But this time? She wasn’t sure if she was just overthinking it, but Lü Meihe’s data seemed oddly fragmented—some parts were too detailed, others were strangely vague. It didn’t match the usual juicy, gossip-filled style of her “melon-eating system” at all.

So, after everyone dispersed, Ji Fei couldn’t help but ask Qin Xian, “I heard that Xiao Gufu was the first one to provide psychological counseling for you back then. Do you still remember anything about it?”

Qin Xian answered honestly, “I have some impressions, but no clear memories.”

Ji Fei could understand. After all, Qin Xian had been in a state of memory confusion at the time.

“He must have been pretty young back then, right? Was it Grandpa who brought him over?” Ji Fei asked curiously.

“Grandpa asked a trusted contact at an authority to recommend someone. They said he specialized in child psychology.” Qin Xian replied.

Ji Fei felt like she was about to start overthinking again.

Qin Xian was secretly pleased that Ji Fei was putting so much thought into him, but seeing how much energy she was spending thinking about it made him feel a little sorry for her.

On the other side, seeing their daughter-in-law working so hard, Qin Ba and Qin Ma naturally felt the need to put in some effort as well. So, when Lü Meihe sat down to chat with the others, Qin Ba took the lead and asked, “By the way, is your husband arriving on the day of the big birthday celebration? He’s so busy with work?”

Lü Meihe smiled and replied, “Yeah, he has a lot of patients, and many of them are high-status individuals. It’s difficult for him to break away.”

Qin Ma immediately laughed and gossiped, “Since he’s not here, let’s talk a little. Didn’t you have a very affectionate online relationship back then?”

Qin Ba and Qin Ma weren’t sure if it was just their imagination, but after they asked, Lü Meihe’s expression went blank for a split second, as if she was completely dazed. Then, she quickly regained herself and answered firmly, “Oh, it was him. Funny, right? Back then, we had already cut contact. We didn’t know each other’s real names or faces. I never thought we’d meet again later.”

Suddenly, the old master spoke. “Why have you never mentioned this before?”

“No one ever asked.” Lü Meihe smiled.

The old master retracted his gaze.

Qin Ba and Qin Ma knew exactly what that meant—Grandpa was getting suspicious.

And honestly, they couldn’t blame him. The whole thing was way too much of a coincidence.

“Seriously? That much of a coincidence?” The others immediately started gossiping.

“Isn’t this basically fate?”

Lü Meihe chuckled. “Apparently, when he learned that I was in this city, he specifically applied for a case here, hoping to be assigned.”

“So in a way, Qin Xian brought you two together?”

Lü Meihe’s face showed a fleeting moment of unnaturalness. “Mm. I suppose so.”

Qin Ba and Qin Ma still felt like something was off, but they couldn’t put their finger on it. In the end, they simply relayed what they had learned to their children.

So, when the group arrived at the younger generation’s gathering place, Qin Yan, Qin Chao, and Qin Rong found an opportunity to gossip with Ji Fei and Qin Xian.

After hearing everything, Ji Fei grudgingly accepted the explanation.

Qin Chao smirked and added, “But Dad and Mom said that when Xiao Gugu was saying all this, she seemed a little off. Maybe she’s just embarrassed about being found out.”

But the details from Qin Ba and Qin Ma matched the system’s information. So there shouldn’t be any problem… right?

【Still, my husband’s family is even more into gossip than I am. They even have a private group chat just for discussing older relatives’ scandals. If they ever find out about Xiao Gugu’s past entanglements with Qin family men, that chat would explode.】

Qin family’s three siblings: …It’s already shocking enough. We almost had a full-blown parental crisis here.

Ji Fei was distracted for only a moment before she was once again pondering Lü Meihe and Yu Hongxian’s situation. There was just something about it—something that felt… off.

Qin Xian didn’t want Ji Fei to overthink things. After all, there wasn’t enough information right now.

Actually, Qin Xian was more suspicious of the psychologist, Yu Hongxian. So, he followed along with Qin Chao’s joke, while also subtly reminding Ji Fei. “When Xiao Gufu arrives, let’s avoid making any jokes about them.”

Ji Fei immediately snapped out of it. That’s true. No need to rush. Once Yu Hongxian arrives, I’ll double-check everything. That’ll be the safest move.

Meanwhile, Qin Xian had already sent a message to his assistant.

Even though he didn’t know exactly what had led to his self-imposed isolation back then, the time frame was clear. And the person who had both the opportunity and the ability to manipulate him at that critical juncture was none other than Yu Hongxian.

Coupling that with Lü Meihe’s odd reactions and Ji Fei’s instincts, Qin Xian decided it was necessary to have someone dig into Yu Hongxian’s past.

His gaze landed on Ji Fei, filled with nothing but her. He couldn’t just let his wife keep worrying over these things.

By now, everyone had already gathered in the hall, following the customary welcome for newcomers.

Qin Jiaxi and Qin Tiantian were both quite enthusiastic toward Yu Lu since they were around the same age, so there was a lot of chatting. Qin Rong, being slightly older, stuck by Ji Fei’s side and didn’t say much.

Then, out of nowhere, Yu Lu suddenly said to Qin Tiantian and Qin Jiaxi, “You’re both supposed to be young ladies of the Qin family, but you’re so different. One of you looks like a real princess, while the other looks like a servant. Qin Jiaxi, you must have a serious people-pleasing complex. If you keep being like this, you’ll never experience real love in your life.”
