Why didn't you tell me?
(Sorry, I had something to do yesterday. I will make it up today.
In summer, the north was sultry and the south was hot and humid. Different places were suffering, so everyone was thanking Willis Carrier, the inventor of air conditioning.
The moon was bright and stars were sparse in Xiamen, and the night was good. In Beijing, it was cloudy and windy. Lightning flashed and thunder roared. A heavy rain was coming. However, everyone was happy. At least it was not as sultry as two days ago. If it went on like this, no one could stand it.
In the alley of Dongcheng District, Qin Changan, who had no social activities or dinner parties today, sat on the balcony on the second floor. He made a cup of Longjing tea before the Bright Festival and enjoyed the rare coolness of summer. His life had always been busy, and he was even busier at work. Qin Changan was totally different from his daily life. He was vigorous and vigorous at work, but he was calm in his daily life.
When the pot of tea was about to be finished, Gongsun ran upstairs hurriedly. He stopped when he was a few steps away from Qin Changan. Seeing that Qin Changan was lost in thought, he hesitated whether to interrupt him. Qin Changan came to himself and looked up at Gongsun. It seemed that he wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Qin Changan said casually, "What's the matter?"
Gongsun said uneasily, "Ran Ran went to Xiamen."
Hearing this, Qin Changan was stunned subconsciously, but he did not say anything. He was lost in thought.
Yes, the woman who rushed to Xiamen overnight and was already at the door of Spring Breeze was Qin Ran, Qin Sheng's sister.
Gongsun did not disturb her. He just got the news. He did not know who leaked the news, but Qin Ran knew that her brother, who had been missing for years, was finally found and his location was confirmed.
Out of love, Gongsun hoped that the sister and brother could meet each other as soon as possible. After all, they had been separated for more than 20 years. Qin Ran could not forget him and hated Qin Changan very much. This matter had been torturing her. If anyone mentioned her brother in front of Qin Ran, she would definitely get angry. This became her most vulnerable point. She had been looking for her brother for more than 20 years. However, it had been too long. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Now, she finally found her brother. Naturally, Qin Ran could not wait to meet him. She did not care about what Qin Changan thought.
However, for the sake of reason, Gongsun felt that Qin Changan's plan was very safe. Qin Changan would slowly get to know Qin Sheng, build up their relationship, understand what kind of person Qin Sheng was, and then recognize him. There would be less resistance. Now, the plan was about to succeed. However, Qin Ran went to see Qin Changan in a hurry, which meant that all her previous efforts would be in vain. If Qin Sheng knew that Qin Changan had done this, he would be dissatisfied with Qin Changan and resist him.
Gongsun was not in a hurry to call Qin Ran to stop her. Otherwise, their relationship might fall into a stalemate. Instead, he directly called Qin Changan.
It has been more than 20 years. "Qin Changan sighed. He did not feel angry at all. Instead, he felt somewhat relieved. His daughter had complained about him for so long. Now, it was time for the dust to settle.
Gongsun was surprised. "Then what about your plan?"
Qin Changan shook his head and said, "Plans can't keep up with changes. I reckon that they have already seen it. What else can I do? Am I supposed to stop her? If so, won't she hate me to death?"
Gongsun was also very helpless. Since it had come to this, there was really no other way. When he knew about this, Qin Ran had already arrived in Xiamen. Gongsun sighed and said, "Then, should we call her?"
"No need. She will call me. I will wait for her call," Qin Changan said thoughtfully. He was indeed very calm. Maybe it was because he knew Qin Ran well.
Gongsun nodded silently and said no more.
After a few thunder and lightning, the heavy rain came as expected. Raindrops as big as beans fell from the sky. Qin Changan, who had returned to the study, looked at the heavy rain outside the window. However, there was a smile at the corner of his mouth. The Qin Family had not been popular for a long time. If Qin Ran and Qin Sheng both got married and had children, then the Qin Family should be very lively.
At that time, he could also enjoy his old age in peace …
At the entrance of Spring Breeze in Xiamen, Qin Ran did not know how long she had been standing at the entrance.
At this moment, her feelings were really complicated. She was excited, expectant, uneasy, and irritated. After all, it had been more than 20 years. She had been separated from her brother for more than 20 years. She had been thinking about it day and night, waiting for this day. Now, she was finally going to see him.
How did she know?
Because these few months, Qin Changan had gone to Xiamen too many times. Qin Ran felt that something was wrong. She called Qin Changan and asked him, but he always said that he was on a business trip. When she asked others, their answers were also messy. After all, she did not hear from the company's top management that there was any new investment in Xiamen. Moreover, the current business in Xiamen was not worth Qin Changan's presence.
Therefore, Qin Ran found someone from her uncle to follow Qin Changan. After all, she knew that the people around Qin Changan were not ordinary people. Only her uncle could help. However, she did not tell her uncle what was going on. After investigating, she just found out the whole story.
Every time Qin Changan went to Xiamen, it was not because of work or business trip. He just lived in a residential area called Pearl Bay Garden. Every day, he would go to a coffee shop called Spring Breeze on time and chat happily with the boss of the coffee shop. The boss of the coffee shop was called Qin Sheng.
When Qin Ran knew this name, she had already guessed it. She was very shocked. When she saw the photos, Qin Ran was completely sure. They were so similar. They were totally carved from the same eyes. It was him. This was her brother.
At that moment, Qin Ran cried and laughed while looking at the two photos in her hands. She really did not know how to express the excitement in her heart. This was her brother, her biological brother. She had been thinking about him for more than 20 years. She had thought about what he might look like. She had thought about it countless times. Now that she finally saw him grow up, she was even more narcissistic. My brother is handsome and spirited.
After she calmed down, Qin Ran directly chose to go to Xiamen. She did not inform anyone, let alone call Qin Changan. It was because she could not wait anymore. She just wanted to see him in the next second.
In Spring Breeze, there were not many customers at this time. Several waiters stared at Qin Ran, who was standing at the door, and whispered. After all, this beauty had been standing there for a few minutes.
Several waiters were very excited. It was so late, but they could still see such a beauty. Her appearance and temperament did not belong to the lady boss at all. It was really a feast for their eyes.
A waiter finally could not stand it anymore. He walked up slowly and shouted, "Beauty, what can I do for you?"
This waiter was quite handsome. He was also a part-time worker during the summer vacation. He liked to flirt with girls on normal days. Now that he saw a beauty, he naturally rushed up to her with full confidence.
Qin Ran came to her senses. She looked at the waiter in front of her and smiled gently. Without saying anything, she took a few deep breaths and walked into Spring Breeze without hesitation. Qin Ran looked around and did not see her brother. She found a random seat thoughtfully and continued to look for her brother and his beautiful girlfriend.
The waiter walked over quickly and asked, "Beauty, what would you like to drink?"
Qin Ran ordered a cup of coffee casually and then asked straightforwardly, "Are your boss and lady boss here?"
It was not until then that the waiter understood the reason why this beauty came to Spring Breeze. He smiled politely and said, "I am really sorry. You are late. Our boss and lady boss just went back. What can I do for you?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ran looked disappointed. Her mood fell straight down like an inflated balloon. She then asked, "Do you know your boss's phone number and where he lives?"
Upon hearing this, the waiter naturally refused and said, "Well, I really can't tell you. If you want to see him, you can come again tomorrow."
"When will your boss come?" Qin Ran did not ask further, for fear that the waiter would be disgusted or suspect her.
The waiter said truthfully, "Our lady boss will come in the afternoon. Our boss comes later, usually around 7 or 8 o 'clock in the evening. If he has something to do, he will not come."
Qin Ran nodded thoughtfully and said, "Okay. I will come tomorrow."
The waiter said happily, "How about we add each other on WeChat? When the boss comes tomorrow, I will inform you. Then you can come again."
Qin Ran immediately recovered her cold temperament and snorted. "No need."
After that, Qin Ran strode out of Spring Breeze, leaving the waiter sighing behind her back. He had missed such a good opportunity.
After leaving Spring Breeze, Qin Ran booked the nearest five-star hotel. The driver left after sending her there. After returning to the hotel and taking a shower, Qin Ran stood by the floor-to-ceiling window in a bathrobe, enjoying the sea view of Xiamen. Gulangyu in the distance was still brightly lit at night. Although she had been to Xiamen several times, this time was indeed the most special.
Qin Ran's mood had been completely calm. Since she had learned about her brother's news in the afternoon, she had been in an extremely excited state. Then she had experienced a roller-coaster of ups and downs. In the end, she still did not see her brother. However, she was not so anxious anymore. After waiting for more than 20 years, one more day would not make a difference. She still had this kind of patience.
Tomorrow, she would reconcile with her brother. She really wanted to know where he had been in the past 20 years and why he did not contact her. As a sister, I miss you so much. More than that, she wanted to know whether her brother had been living well in the past 20 years and whether he had suffered a lot and suffered a lot.
Qin Ran, who was standing by the window, thought about it. She laughed for a while and cried for a while. Her longing was different from the past because she would see her brother tomorrow.
In the end, Qin Ran thought of Qin Changan. When she had learned about it this afternoon, she had been very angry. She really wanted to find Qin Changan and ask him why he did not tell her when he found her brother. Do you know how much I miss him? However, she was not in the mood at that time. She knew what was more important. Seeing her brother was the most important thing.
At this moment, after calming down, Qin Ran thought of this matter. So she dialed Qin Changan's number without hesitation. After a while, the call was connected. After all, Qin Changan had been waiting for this call.
