Qin Yanan's mood became more and more uncomfortable. After the age of 20, women basically began to accept reality and understood that romantic love with fairy tales was unlikely to appear. They even disdained the routines of idol dramas more and more. To be honest, the routines of the male leads in idol dramas would be warned by someone intentionally or unintentionally to stay away from Qin Yanan.
Therefore, Qin Yanan gradually prepared herself mentally. She began to think about who her family would arrange for her to marry. Every time her family talked about outstanding, eye-catching, and promising young people, Qin Yanan would pay extra attention and memorize many of their names.
Although she did not have any special feelings for these people and reluctantly rejected them, at least she had an impression and knew what kind of people they were.
What about this Liu Changan?
He jumped out like a monkey, pointed at Qin Yanan's nose and laughed, "Don't be picky, your Mr. Right is me!"
Then, he carried Qin Yanan on his shoulder and happily carried Qin Yanan back to the small bedroom that had been converted from the storeroom to the sound of firecrackers being lit by his father and great-grandfather.
Should I comfort myself that this small bedroom will have a more warm feeling?
"Then you should be my cousin." Qin Yanan reluctantly showed a smile. No matter what, girls always subconsciously wanted to be the younger one, even in front of Liu Changan.
Liu Changan shook his head.
"You can be my cousin. I am 18 years old this year, a senior in the Affiliated High School of Xiangnan Normal University. I will take the college entrance examination next month."
18 years old!
Qin Yanan's originally somewhat lazy standing posture instantly straightened up.
In the streets of Jun Sha, the cool shirt and vest that men in their 40s and 50s often wore, the loose coarse cloth trousers that could hold a bottle of Erguotou, and the straw slippers that could only be stocked in very old small markets. Was this an 18-year-old boy?
At the first sight of Liu Changan, Qin Yanan felt that he was about the same age as her. She did not think that he might be so much younger than her.
In other words, it was a preconceived misunderstanding on his part? No matter how much her great-grandfather cared about this distant cousin of hers, it was impossible for him to force himself on such a fool!
Thinking of this, Qin Yanan breathed a sigh of relief. The depression that had been suppressed in her heart for the past few days was finally released along with her breath. No one knew how she felt when she observed Liu Changan playing cards with a group of old men and old women and haggling over one or two yuan just now.
If her fiancé was really like this, Qin Yanan would rather become a nun.
Only eighteen years old! His own cousin!
Although this little cousin was a distant relative, from his great-grandfather's mood, there was no doubt that he attached great importance to this little cousin.
After great-grandmother's death, according to the usual practice and the organization's arrangement, a female orderly received the task of taking care of the chief. It was not until ten years later that great-grandfather remarried.
However, everyone knew that the person great-grandfather couldn't forget was his great-grandmother. He always had a photo of him and his great-grandmother on his desk, whether it was in the capital, his hometown, or the sanatorium.
Wait … There were three people in that photo. It was not just a photo of great-grandfather and great-grandmother.
The photos of that era always revealed a sense of elegance. The black and white color couldn't hide their high spirits. Great-grandfather was heroic and imposing, and great-grandmother was elegant and gentle. She sat in the middle with her palm slightly raised. Her wrist was white, and her slender fingers gently held the fingers of the man on the right. The affection and dependence between her eyebrows overflowed the picture.
The man in the photo was closer to great-grandmother than great-grandfather. Great-grandfather once said that he was great-grandmother's brother, but there was no more information about him. Great-grandfather was also unwilling to reveal it.
In that era, there were countless people who were supposed to be peerless in their generation. They willingly became the cornerstone of a nameless revolution. Even if no one knew about them, even if they didn't leave a name or trace, they wanted to build a new country and the future of the nation.
That man was probably one of them.
It was reasonable for Qin Yanan to make such a speculation. Great-grandfather believed that "only those who joined him in the revolution were friends." Not to mention those who sold their country for glory, even those who protected themselves were disdained by him. When he was studying, some people retreated to the southwest. Great-grandfather and great-grandmother were those who threw away their pen and picked up a gun.
For great-grandfather to specially leave a photo of the three of them, it was definitely not just because that man was great-grandmother's closest relative.
Now that the Qin family was in the imperial court, and Liu Changan was in such dire straits, great-grandfather must have felt very ashamed of the comrades who had sacrificed themselves in the past. It was understandable that he wanted Qin Yanan to specially come over to take care of Liu Changan. The reason why he wanted Qin Yanan to be humble and respectful was probably because of Liu Changan's great-grandfather.
"So that's how it is." Qin Yanan's tone was much softer. "It's really sad. The friendship between the old people began hundreds of years ago. Now that we meet again, I only hope that this relationship will not be broken. We must contact each other more often in the future."
Liu Changan opened his mouth as if he thought of something. He looked at Qin Yanan up and down seriously and then shook his head.
Qin Yanan was puzzled by his reaction. She did not have a family relationship with this cousin in front of her since she was a child, but she was trying to fulfill her great-grandfather's wish. As a cousin, she should be closer to this distant cousin, and she was not as repulsed as before.
"At first, I thought that your great-grandfather asked you to see me because he wanted me to take care of you after he passed away. After all, you look so much like Ye Sijin. He knew that I would definitely do my best for this." Liu Changan was surprised and laughed. "You reminded me. It seems that his idea was more than that. He wanted you to be my wife."
"What did you say?!"
It was like a bolt from the blue. The ups and downs of her mood were just like the ups and downs of her magnificent and broad heart.
"This is ridiculous. How can I marry a woman who looks almost exactly like your great-grandmother?" Ye Sijin's voice and smile appeared in Liu Changan's mind. "You go back. I will make it clear to your great-grandfather and let him give up this idea."
Qin Yanan stared at Liu Changan incredulously. "How is it possible?! I am seven years older than you. How could he arrange it like this? Moreover, what right do you have to look down on me? "
"If a man who looks exactly like your great-grandfather pursues you, does he have a chance?" Liu Changan asked.
Qin Yanan shook her head. This feeling was so weird that she could not accept it.
"Don't you understand?"
"It's not the same …" Qin Yanan always felt that Liu Changan had no reason to look down on her because she looked too much like her great-grandmother. This was different from her not being able to accept a boyfriend who looked like her great-grandfather.
"It's not the same. Although strictly speaking, I have no blood relationship with anyone, your appearance is really unacceptable. It will make me immersed in a lot of memories. This is not what I want … For me, time will take away everyone. I should also put away my feelings and memories of the past." Liu Changan could not explain it to Qin Yanan too clearly.
"Do you think I want to?" Qin Yanan was furious. She turned around and left angrily.
This angry look was much cuter than her usual cold and reserved look. Liu Changan nodded his head in satisfaction and entered the room while fanning himself with his palm-leaf fan.
Qin Yanan returned to Baolong Center. Zhongqing was walking downstairs with the High Templar … Qin Yanan only learned today that Zhu Juntang named her Rottweiler Protoss.
The original Chinese name was High Templar. Now, it had been changed to a more elegant translation: High Monk of Putuo Temple.
However, Putuo Temple was a real Buddhist holy land. High Monks could not be insulted at will. Therefore, Zhu Juntang still called her dog High Templar.
What kind of mess was this? Qin Yanan was not interested in the reason for Zhu Juntang's name. She asked Zhongqing where Zhu Juntang was.
Zhongqing continued to walk the High Templar. The security in Junsha was not bad, let alone in the city center. Moreover, she was walking a fierce dog that reminded people of a fierce hunter.
Qin Yanan saw Zhu Juntang on the helicopter platform of the main building of Baolong Center. The beautiful girl was wearing a gorgeous Ming Dynasty official's dress. She held a small folding fan in her hand and was looking around downstairs.
Qin Yanan really envied her for having nothing to do, although she also knew that Zhu Juntang's ambition, which did not match her intelligence, was actually overflowing.
"I suspect that I will really jump from here one day." Zhu Juntang took two tentative steps on the edge, walked back, and leaned into Qin Yanan's arms. She touched her forehead and said, "Ah … dear, I'm afraid of heights. Let me rest in your arms for a while."
Qin Yanan pushed Zhu Juntang's soft body away and walked into the glass house filled with all kinds of flowers. Except for the lights on the top of Lu Mountain in the distance, looking left and right from the top of the city, it was actually endless darkness. However, the warmth emitted from this small glass house formed an extremely obvious contrast, and it finally calmed people's hearts.
"Why do you always like to climb up here?" Qin Yanan did not doubt that Zhu Juntang would jump from the top of the building. Who didn't have crazy thoughts? It was just that rationality could control it.
If there was a strong wind on the top of the building, it was not impossible for Zhu Juntang to be blown down.
"Don't you feel that sitting here is like sitting on top of the clouds, and you have become a little fairy?" Zhu Juntang smiled. "I am a fairy, and I don't belong to the mortal world."
"All fairies marry commoners," Qin Yanan said with a hint of mockery in her voice.
"That doesn't matter." Zhu Juntang did not care about this. "Then I am still a fairy … But, how is the information you got today?"
Zhu Juntang knew what Qin Yanan was most concerned about now. Today, she went to find her father to ask for information.
"Do you know? My father analyzed the situation and said, 'In the past, my great-grandfather always rejected all the people who came to propose marriage with the excuse that he wanted me to choose myself. In reality, he was waiting to find his old friend so that he could keep her as his wife!' "Qin Yanan's analysis made her depressed for the entire night.
"Who is this person? What is his name? Let me check for you." Zhu Juntang suppressed her gloating and showed a very concerned expression.
"Can I tell you? I don't want you to be involved in this. " Qin Yanan shook her head without thinking. She knew Zhu Juntang's character very well. She wanted to be involved in everything, made some self-righteous decisions, and always messed up the situation and then slipped away as if it was none of her business, letting others clean up the mess.
"Are we still sisters?" Zhu Juntang said angrily.
