My Hubby Can’t Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 416: Chapter 417: Kneeling in Penalty (5)

Originally, Qin Zhiyou, who was kneeling crookedly, immediately adjusted his posture at the sight of her descending. Qin Zhigu assumed he would kneel more upright, however, he instead slumped onto the chair more completely. If not for the inconvenience caused by Qin Zhigu’s presence, he may have stubbornly held his posture a bit longer.

Qin Zhiyou had no choice but to be punished, even though his promise had just stabilized Lu Weixi’s emotions and being punished by Grandfather Qin had allowed her to vent her anger. At least it prevented her from bringing up the topic of divorce with him.

However, he had a feeling that this matter wouldn’t pass so easily.

Lu Weixi must have already taken her bath, her long hair was wet, and she was dressed in her home clothes. Due to the two men kneeling downstairs, she wore a modest home outfit. Although one man was kneeling upright and the other was almost half-dead, both of them were staring at her without blinking.

When Lu Weixi came down from upstairs, their gaze remained on her. However, when she reached the bottom of the stairs, she abruptly turned and headed straight for the kitchen.

Is she going to make something for me to eat? That makes sense, it’s been several hours from evening to now, and they haven’t eaten or even had a sip of water. Soon they heard the sound of the fridge and the microwave, and shortly after, the sweet aroma of egg tarts filled the air.

In the Qin Family, a regular post-dinner occasion was the tea talk. In addition to preparing various teas, the servants would also prepare some desserts. Today’s dessert was egg tarts, and since there was no post-dinner conversation today, nobody had touched them.

Both Qin Zhiyou and Qin Zhigu didn’t particularly enjoy sweets, but after being hungry all night, anything smelled delicious.

Even though both of them seemed fairly composed at the moment, when Lu Weixi walked out holding the plate of egg tarts, they were more interested in the tarts than her.

As Lu Weixi walked closer, one hand holding the egg tarts and the other a cup of homemade milk tea—it was made with Ceylon tea mixed with milk and a bit of maple syrup.

The stronger the aroma became, the more Qin Zhiyou, who had been practically lying on the floor, found himself unconsciously craning his neck.

However.

When Lu Weixi walked up to them, she simply turned around and headed back upstairs. The plate of egg tarts and milk tea she was holding naturally didn’t offer them a single bite.

Turns out she came down to have a midnight snack!

Normally this wouldn’t be a big deal, at most it would lead to gaining weight from eating before sleep. But Lu Weixi coming down at this time was like deliberately showing off.

Forget about the egg tarts, even a sip of milk tea would have been good.

No more to say, continue kneeling.

At midnight, Old Master Qin finally came to check on them. Seeing Qin Zhigu maintaining a straight posture while Qin Zhiyou was a slump resembling a boneless figure, he was instantly furious, giving a kick to his leg, “Kneel properly!”

He first looked towards Qin Zhigu, “Do you know where you went wrong?”

Qin Zhigu lowered his head, “I know.”

Grandfather was punishing him because he had gotten into a fight with his brother, and also due to Lu Weixi. He had previously dated Lu Weixi, thus his role was a delicate one. It’s okay for him to give advice, but even if they really divorced, it wasn’t his place to intervene.

However, Qin Zhigu shook his head, “I know I was wrong, but I won’t change. If something like this happens again, I’ll still hit him.”

So what if he’s biased, so what if he can’t forget her? If Qin Zhiyou treats her properly, he won’t resort to violence, nor will he have further intentions..
