Gone?
From Qin Changan's point of view, what he did was certainly correct. Firstly, he wanted to protect Qin Sheng. Secondly, he wanted to train Qin Sheng. Thirdly, he wanted to figure out what kind of person Qin Sheng was. Although Qin Sheng was his son and there had never been a good-for-nothing in the past few generations of men in the Qin Family, he still wanted to use time to test Qin Sheng instead of blindly taking risks. After all, the Qin Family was a big family with a big business. It was not easy for them to get to where they were today after sacrificing so many things. They had to be cautious.
However, from Qin Sheng's point of view, he could not accept this, and it was also unfair to him. Because this completely denied Qin Sheng's experience and achievements in the past few years. He had thought that he relied on his own ability to do many things. Sometimes, he also relied on luck and his grandfather's kindness. However, in the end, he found how ridiculous it was. He was just a puppet of others. Everything was arranged by others. Just like in online games, the plot was already set.
For a man like Qin Sheng, who looked amiable but was actually arrogant, how could he accept such a result? How could he be willing to be a puppet of others and be manipulated by them? Secondly, was Qin Changan's so-called protection for him just to watch him being tortured by various people? After that, he had been wandering from place to place, suffering and being wronged. If he had not been lucky that time and Zhuang Zhou had not arrived at the last moment, he would have died on Mount Jiuhua.
As for what happened in Huang Mei Town, didn't you protect me? Why did you put me in a desperate situation? Was this your so-called protection? You protected me. Why did I have to exchange my brother's life for a chance of survival at the last moment? Why didn't you show up earlier? If you had shown up earlier, my brother would not have died. Do you know how it feels? You need to rely on others' lives to prolong your own life. You will be trapped in guilt and self-blame for the rest of your life.
Sometimes, Qin Sheng really hoped that he was the one who died that day instead of Qingyang. In this way, he would not feel guilty. Therefore, during this period, he forced himself not to think about what had happened that night. He tried to avoid the facts subjectively, because that feeling was too torturous.
Therefore, Qin Sheng was really disgusted by what Qin Changan had done. If Qin Changan had acknowledged him at the beginning, Qin Sheng might not have had any objection. After all, Qin Changan was his biological father. However, Qin Sheng could not accept what Qin Changan had done. He would rather pay a painful price for whatever he did in the end. Even if he died, it would be because he deserved it. However, he was not willing to become someone else's puppet and become the poor protagonist in the world of The Truman Show.
Qin Changan left just like that, not caring about what Qin Sheng was thinking. Qin Sheng was left alone in the living room. At this moment, his mood was very complicated, and his mind was in a mess of all kinds of thoughts.
Qin Sheng understood very well that Qin Changan was his father. He definitely had his reasons for doing these things. However, Qin Sheng was Qin Sheng. He also had his reasons. When the rules of the game collided with each other, there would definitely be conflicts.
Qin Sheng was stunned by Qin Changan's words. He could only stand there in a daze, not knowing what to do. He did not know whether his idea was right or wrong. However, he could not accept Qin Changan's words at the moment. He felt extremely conflicted in his heart.
Qin Ran had been waiting outside the main hall. She was afraid that the father and the son would quarrel. At first, there was no movement inside. Who knew that they would really quarrel in the end. Qin Ran could not help but feel nervous. No matter what, of course, she did not want the relationship between the father and the son, who had reunited after so many years, to be too tense. Otherwise, she would also feel uncomfortable.
However, between Qin Changan and Qin Sheng, Qin Ran would stand on Qin Sheng's side without hesitation. That was because there were people who cared about Qin Changan, while no one cared about Qin Sheng.
Consequently, when she saw Qin Changan walking out, Qin Ran directly blocked his way and said in an unfriendly tone, "Can't you treat him well?"
Qin Changan was still not angry. It was okay for them to not understand. However, they were his children. How could a father blame his children? Consequently, Qin Changan said calmly, "Ran Ran, you will know my difficulties in the future."
Qin Ran did not know why, when she heard this sentence, she suddenly felt that her father was already old. This kind of tone was quite sad. Consequently, Qin Ran did not know how to respond. Originally, she had been bold and confident, but in an instant, she did not have any temper at all.
Qin Changan smiled gently and walked past Qin Ran. He had to go to the kitchen to see how the preparation for lunch was going.
After a while, Qin Ran came to her senses. She smiled bitterly and said nothing. Although the family had reunited, they still needed a long time to get used to each other.
When Qin Ran walked into the side hall, Qin Sheng was still in a daze. Qin Ran walked to the front of Qin Sheng, feeling somewhat distressed. She held Qin Sheng's hand and said, "Don't think so much."
It was not until Qin Sheng felt the warmth in his hand that he shook his head somewhat helplessly. He did not know what to do. He had no choice but to say confusedly, "Sister, I want to find a place and stay quietly for a few days. I am a little tired."
This was the first time that Qin Sheng had said that he was tired. In the past, no matter how much he had suffered or how much he had been wronged, he could always go on with a strong will. However, what had happened today had a great impact on him. He did not know what was right or wrong, nor did he know how to accept this.
Qin Ran agreed without hesitation. "Okay. The Yanqi Lake is relatively quiet and the scenery is also good. I will take you there tomorrow. You can calm down there. I know you have had a hard time over these years."
"I want to leave now," Qin Sheng said straightforwardly. He did not know how to face his father, Qin Changan. Right now, he really could not judge whether what Qin Changan had done was right or wrong.
Qin Ran was stunned and did not know how to answer. After all, Qin Sheng had just come back today and met his biological father. It would not be good for him to leave directly like this.
Consequently, after thinking for a while, Qin Ran said, "Qin Sheng, listen to me. No matter what kind of conflicts you have, he is your father after all. No matter what he has done, he does not have any bad intentions towards you. Moreover, so many years have passed and you have just reconciled with each other today. If you do this, he will feel very uncomfortable. At least let us have a reunion dinner, okay? "
Qin Ran's words were very pertinent. Qin Sheng had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay."
The sister and brother stayed in the side hall for a while. Qin Sheng seemed to be in a bad state. Qin Ran did not know what to say and could only sigh. It was not until Gongsun walked into the side hall and asked them to go to the dining room for a meal that Qin Ran took Qin Sheng there.
In the side hall, Qin Changan had already sat on the main seat. Qin Ran took Qin Sheng and sat on his left side. Gongsun sat on his right side. His position in the Qin Family was very high. Qin Changan had never treated him as a servant. Instead, he regarded him as a member of the Qin Family and his brother.
As for Zhuang Zhou and Nangong, they had already left. The Qin Family was reunited. It was not good for them to stay here. Originally, Nangong could have stayed. However, she was too tired recently and only wanted to have a good rest for a few days.
After everyone sat down, the atmosphere at the dining table was a little bit awkward. The table was full of sumptuous dishes, but it did not seem to be so attractive.
Qin Sheng's face was gloomy. He lowered his head and did not say a word. It was not good for Gongsun to break the deadlock. Qin Ran was thinking about what to say. After thinking for a while, she decided to take Qin Sheng away. After all, she had to tell the Old Man. Otherwise, it would be too disrespectful to the Old Man. The Old Man would definitely be sad and sad later.
Consequently, Qin Ran took the initiative and said, "Dad, my brother has just come back. I think he has been too tired recently. I want to take him to Yanqi Lake to relax."
Of course, Qin Changan knew this must be Qin Sheng's idea. He would not stop Qin Sheng. Even if he left Qin Sheng in the siheyuan, the father and the son would not say anything when they met. Consequently, he nodded and said, "Okay. Your Uncle Li has a villa there. The environment is not bad. You can call him and tell him not to stay in a hotel."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ran finally felt at ease. Although she knew that the Old Man would definitely agree, she was afraid that if he did not, it would be more difficult for them to reconcile. As for the Uncle Li she mentioned, he was a senior member of the group.
Qin Changan picked up the chopsticks and said in a deep voice, "Let's eat." It was not until then that the others started to eat.
Qin Changan ate at a moderate pace. This time, Qin Sheng did not act like he did in the past, holding the bowl of rice and picking the dishes slowly with his head lowered. Qin Ran did not eat much. Most of the time, she picked the dishes for the three men, especially Qin Sheng. Basically, Qin Sheng did not need to do anything. While he was picking the dishes, he said that these were his sister's favorite dishes, in order to make Qin Sheng eat more.
Originally, Qin Ran had planned to open a bottle of wine to welcome her brother home. However, the atmosphere seemed to be not suitable. As a result, she could only give up.
After Qin Sheng finished a bowl of rice, he stood up immediately and said, "I'm full."
After that, Qin Sheng turned around and left, heading to the outside of the yard. This place made him feel suffocated. As a result, he needed to go out to breathe. Qin Ran glanced at the Old Man opposite her and found that the Old Man did not have any reaction. As a result, she followed him out.
After catching up with Qin Sheng at the door, Qin Ran said helplessly, "Since you are not willing to stay here, I will take you away."
After that, she pulled Qin Sheng out and drove the Land Rover at the door directly to Yanqi Lake. She did not say goodbye to Qin Changan again.
To be honest, Qin Ran had planned to take Qin Sheng to pay respects to her mother after lunch. However, judging from Qin Sheng's current state, it was obviously not suitable. As a result, she could only wait until they came back from Yanqi Lake.
Hearing the sound of the car outside, Gongsun followed them out. Originally, he wanted to say something to them. However, after thinking that Qin Ran would definitely arrange everything, he went back to the dining room.
Qin Changan asked without raising his head, "Are they gone?"
Gongsun sighed. Originally, he thought that when they came back, they would be reunited with their family. Who knew that it was not as beautiful as he had imagined. As expected, the thing that he was most worried about happened. He smiled bitterly and said, "They are gone."
Qin Changan arranged casually, "There are still many things in the company that Ran Ran needs to deal with. Let him stay alone quietly. Send Nangong to keep an eye on him."
