Marrying Into a Wealthy Family: This Petite Wife Is Not Obedient - Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Third Master of the Qin Family

Looking at Old Master Qin who was sitting at the head of the table, Shi Tao could not help but carefully observe his face while listening to his teachings. This elderly head was a well-known figure in Su City when he was young. Even now, he was still a figure that people often talked about. However, he was truly old with many wrinkles on his face like dried tree bark.

“Ah Zhan, aren’t you going to see your third uncle? Bring Shi Tao to see him first.”

When Shi Tao heard this, she immediately placed his hand on Qin Zhan’s wheelchair and waved goodbye to Old Master Qin with a weak smile.

Looking at Shi Tao’s weak state, Old Master Qin did not say much. He even revealed a satisfied expression when she turned her head to reveal the faint red mark on her neck. This girl was quite obedient.

“Third Uncle.” Shi Tao had just pushed Qin Zhan out of Purple Cloud Pavilion when a serious man walked towards him. Hearing Qin Zhan’s cold voice, Shi Tao hurriedly greeted him..

Just as she had expected, this Third Master Qin indeed had a serious and cold look on his face. The oppressive aura and aura he exuded immediately exposed his status as a superior. Shi Tao had seen many people from both the business and political world with his parents in the past, but none of them were like the Qin family. Just by standing there without moving, their aura and behavior made people tremble uncontrollably. It seemed that this century-old aristocratic family had not only passed down their decadent and backward family rules, but also the oppressive aura that was carved into their bones.

Sigh, compared to a real aristocratic family like the Qin family, the Shi family was just playing around. No wonder the Qin family looked at everyone with disdain. However, Shi Tao only praised her in her heart. What she really liked and missed was still her thin but happy family. That was true love and harmony.

“Ah Zhan, have you greeted Grandpa?”

Qin Zhan nodded. “I just did. I was about to bring Shi Tao to visit you.”

Qin Yuanyang nodded and turned to look at Shi Tao, who was standing behind Qin Zhan. Qin Yuanyang was stunned for a moment when he saw Shi Tao’s pale and haggard face. His fingers trembled slightly as a different emotion flashed across his eyes. “Is Shi Tao feeling unwell?”

Upon hearing Third Master Qin’s question, Shi Tao immediately stood up straight. “Maybe I didn’t sleep well last night.”

She didn’t know why, but she didn’t feel that nervous even when she saw Old Master Qin. However, when this Third Master Qin’s big eyes swept over her, she felt a little terrified and nervous. Her palms suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Shi Tao had assumed that Third Master Qin was the one in charge of the household. Hence, the way he looked at people was more threatening.

“Then go back with Ah Zhan first. We’ll talk again when we’re free.” Qin Yuanyang retracted his gaze and said a few more words to the two of them before hurriedly entering Purple Cloud Pavilion.

After Third Master Qin walked far away, Shi Tao’s tense nerves slowly relaxed. For some reason, she felt that Third Master Qin was looking at her strangely.

Thinking about how he was the one who proposed to marry her to the Qin family, Shi Tao could not help but tense up. Could this Third Master really want to turn her into a spy and report Qin Zhan’s every move to him? No, she could not do that. She did not have the talent and ability to be a spy.

“Shi Tao, aren’t you leaving?” This time, Qin Zhan was the one who urged Shi Tao. He could not help but wake this fool up when he saw Shi Tao walking around in circles under the sun.
