An old house
At this moment, Qin Sheng's mentality had completely changed.
At first, the news and the appearance of Qin Ran and Zhuang Zhou shocked and confused him. Then, his imagination ran wild and he felt that it was impossible. After that, Qin Sheng calmed down and understood that this was indeed the truth. No matter whether you believed it or not, he began to face it calmly instead of running away and rejecting it blindly. Then, he sorted out everything again and deduced the logic behind it.
Now, Qin Sheng wanted to know the ins and outs of everything and figure out what the truth was.
Since Qin Ran didn't know a lot of things, he would go to the person who knew everything. That was why he said that he would go back to Beijing without hesitation, because he didn't want to waste a second.
Qin Ran had wanted him to stay in Tsingtao for a few more days so that he could recover and have time to adjust and accept what had happened today. She did not expect that Qin Sheng would take the initiative to say that he wanted to go back to Beijing. Qin Ran was somewhat worried and happy at the same time.
In the end, after careful consideration, Qin Ran still agreed to Qin Sheng's request. She immediately got up and called Gongsun to contact Air China to arrange the flight route. Generally, a domestic business jet route had to be applied for a day in advance, but for the Qin family, this was not a difficult matter. They only needed to contact China Airlines and then inform the Air Traffic Control Bureau. After all, this was a sudden matter, and they would not trouble others on normal days.
After the call, Qin Ran looked at the dishes that had just been served and said helplessly, "I have to fill my stomach first. It will take a while for them to make the arrangements."
Qin Sheng did not refuse. He was already very hungry at this time. He lowered his head and began to wolf down the noodles, not caring about how Qin Ran, who was sitting opposite him, would look at him.
Qin Ran was not surprised at all by Qin Sheng's eating style. It was the same as when they were young. If it was not her younger brother, she would not have believed it. She remembered that when he was young, whether it was his parents or his maternal grandparents, they had always reprimanded him for this. However, Qin Sheng still went his own way and had no intention of changing at all. Qin Ran didn't have any objections to this. There were too many rules and frameworks in life, which always bound everyone and made people's lives very tiring and hard. Therefore, most of the time, she didn't need to care about what others thought of her. She just needed to live freely and freely.
For example, the First Uncle who had an epiphany. Everyone thought that he had a bright future ahead of him and that he would definitely be a leader in the future. However, he suddenly retreated and went into seclusion in the mountains to cultivate his moral character. This shocked everyone.
In the hotel room, after Gongsun hung up Qin Ran's call, he prepared to call the person in charge of Air China's business jet company. At the same time, he also had to call the leader of the Air Traffic Control Bureau. Otherwise, the business jet company would not be able to handle it in a short time.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Gongsun was in a daze, Nangong asked curiously.
Gongsun shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Prepare to go back to Beijing."
Nangong and Zhuang Zhou looked at each other in dismay. This young master really knew how to make trouble. Couldn't he wait until tomorrow?
On the way from the hotel to the Qingdao Liuting International Airport, Qin Sheng, Qin Ran, and Gongsun were in the same car. Nangong and Zhuang Zhou were in the car behind them. The drivers were all employees of the Qingdao company.
Qin Sheng liked it very much. Every night, when he was in the car, he could enjoy and observe the night view of a city through the window. However, before he had time to enjoy the city of Tsingtao, he had to leave in a hurry.
One city after another. Since Qin Sheng had left Xi 'an, he had never stopped moving. He had been drifting. He had never stayed in any city for more than a year. The city he stayed in for the longest time was Xiamen, which was also the quietest time in the past few years.
The next stop was Beijing.
Qin Sheng did not know how long he could stay in this city after he figured out the truth about his parentage.
At the helipad of Qingdao Liuting International Airport, after the security check, the two cars of the Qin Family directly drove to the helipad. This somewhat surprised Qin Sheng. He had thought that he could take any flight to Beijing, but he did not expect that his sister, Qin Ran, would arrange a private plane. However, he did not know whether it was the private plane of the Qin Family or the kind of business jet of the airline company.
Qin Sheng had never taken a private plane before. He had only seen it on TV and the Internet. All the rich people in the country owned private planes. The Gulfstream and Challenger series were their favorites. This plane seemed to be the Gulfstream series, but Qin Sheng did not know the specific model.
After getting out of the car, Qin Sheng and the others boarded the plane under the guidance of the two beautiful air stewardesses. Qin Sheng followed Qin Ran to the passenger cabin. He looked at the private plane calmly and did not appear to be very surprised. The passenger cabin was very spacious. The interior decoration and facilities looked very luxurious and high-tech. The seats were all leather sofas. There were single and double seats. There was also a sofa for multiple seats. They were scattered in the cabin irregularly and could seat more than 10 people. Qin Sheng guessed that this was either a Gulfstream G550 or a Gulfstream G650. Otherwise, there would not be such a big space.
Qin Ran randomly found a seat and sat down. Qin Sheng sat opposite Qin Ran. Gongsun, Zhuang Zhou, and Nangong all sat in front. They did not disturb Qin Ran and Qin Sheng and gave them some space to be alone. The two air stewardesses started their normal service and asked the VIPs what they needed.
"I did not expect that my first time taking a private plane would be under such circumstances. It's really interesting." Qin Sheng smiled bitterly and joked, "The world of the rich is really different."
Qin Ran did not like Qin Sheng to say such things. It would make her feel distressed because she knew that Qin Sheng had not had it easy all these years. She lived a comfortable life in Sijiu City and did not have to worry about food and clothing. Qin Sheng had suffered with his grandfather since he was a child. In the past few years, he had experienced too many setbacks and grievances.
"Gulfstream G650, the most advanced large business jet in the world. Our showy father just bought it last year. If you want, it will be yours from now on. I will get it for you when we go back to Beijing," Qin Ran said very generously. It seemed that as long as Qin Sheng asked, she would do her best to do anything.
It was indeed a Gulfstream G650. Qin Sheng had seen the introduction about Gulfstream G650. The cruising speed was up to Mach 0.925, the longest range could reach 13,000 kilometers, 19 seats and so on. Of course, the price was not ordinary. It was 400 million. This was not something that ordinary rich people could have. Qin Sheng was full of curiosity about his father whom he had not met yet.
Also, he did not expect that he, a poor loser who could be trampled on by others, would become a super rich second generation in the blink of an eye. This was really dark humor.
Qin Sheng did not respond to this topic. The most money he had seen in his life was when he fought in an underground boxing ring in Hangzhou. Chang Baji had won that time with his strength. Now, someone had given him a private jet. Wasn't this a fantasy story?
"I am sleepy. I will sleep for a while. Wake me up when we arrive," Qin Sheng said to Qin Ran. He closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
Qin Ran smiled and nodded. "Okay, then sleep for a while. I will wake you up when we arrive."
After Qin Sheng fell asleep, Qin Ran asked the air stewardess to bring a blanket and covered Qin Sheng personally …
More than an hour later, the Gulfstream G650 landed at the Capital International Airport. Gongsun had already arranged everything. The Qin Family's two Mercedes were already waiting on the tarmac.
When Qin Sheng woke up, he found himself covered with a gray blanket. Of course, he knew who had covered him with it. It was probably she who had covered him with the blanket in the hotel. Consequently, Qin Sheng looked at Qin Ran and said sincerely, "Thank you."
Qin Sheng was not used to this new identity, so he was a little strange to Qin Ran. They were not close like siblings. But he knew that this sister was really good to him. He would remember all these in his heart.
After getting in the car, the two Mercedes left the airport. Gongsun had already finished the phone call. He turned around and asked, "Your father has a social engagement tonight. He is having tea and chatting with the leaders of the Ministry of Commerce and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. He is not back yet. It is so late. Shall we go back to the siheyuan first? "
This was the daily conversation between Gongsun and Qin Ran. They did not hide it because of Qin Sheng's presence. But when Qin Sheng heard it, he was shocked at first, followed by more doubts.
From the doubts at the beginning, to the fear of the Song Family, to the most advanced Gulfstream private jet worth 400 million, and then to the talk with the leaders of the Ministry of Commerce and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. Qin Sheng became more and more curious about his father. His identity was really mysterious.
Qin Ran thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go to the old house first."
This was Qin Ran's original plan. But it was too late today. Obviously, Qin Sheng wanted to see Qin Changan first. So she did not plan to take Qin Sheng to the old house directly. But now Qin Changan was not back yet, so she still wanted to take Qin Sheng to the old house first.
Because for her, that was the real home. There were the common memories of her, Qin Sheng, and her mother. There was nothing in the siheyuan that belonged to them.
"Okay." Gongsun nodded silently. This was what he had expected. Then he told the driver to go directly to West Chang 'an Street.
The old house of the Qin Family was on the West Chang 'an Street. It was next to Yuyuantan and Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. It was called Sanlihe, surrounded by ministries and commissions and their families. The community used to be called the Planning Commission Compound. Anyone who was familiar with the history of old Beijing would know that it was a magical place. The most famous one was the Red Tower Auditorium of the Planning Commission, which was the top of the four big auditoriums in old Beijing. The other three were the Geology Department, the Materials Department, and the CPPCC.
Of course, this was not the most magical place of the Planning Commission Compound. The most magical thing was that there were 21 Deputy Premiers and State Councilors, more than 200 ministers and deputy ministers, and countless celebrities from all walks of life. This was the place that made it a legend.
However, when the sign of the Planning Commission Compound was removed, the legend of this place came to an end. Today, this place was already dilapidated. Most of the places had been reconstructed. The dilapidated courtyard was only occupied by some nostalgic or retired old people. Most of the young people had left and would only come back on weekends.
The Qin Family of four used to live here. Of course, Old Master Qin was not there. He was a mysterious person. However, many of the Qin Family's friends also lived here. This was the foundation of Qin Changan's success. Without those legendary stories, there would be no Qin Changan today.
After the two cars drove into the compound, they made several turns and finally stopped in front of a building in Courtyard No. 3. Back then, the Courtyard of the Planning Commission was very big, and it was an independent world. It had everything, so it was divided into several small courtyards.
In the winter night, under the yellow street lights, these old houses made people a little nervous.
They got out of the car one after another. Qin Ran looked up at the red six-story building and smiled subconsciously. All her childhood memories were here.
"You guys wait downstairs," Qin Ran said to the others. This was her private space, which belonged to the Qin Family. She did not want to be disturbed by outsiders.
Qin Sheng frowned slightly. He knew that this was definitely not the Qin Family's home. His mysterious father would definitely not live here. After all, this place was very old. Therefore, he asked, "Where is this?"
Qin Ran squinted and smiled. "This is our home. It is also the place where you lived when you were young."
"Home?" Qin Sheng murmured. This word was familiar to him but strange at the same time. It was because he had never had a real home.
