Who was she?
How powerful was the Qin Family?
At present, Qin Sheng was not sure. He had never asked his sister Qin Ran, Qin Changan, or Uncle Gongsun. He only guessed from the side or from a few words. After all, he had started to take over the resources of the Qin Family and was unveiling the mysterious veil bit by bit. He had thought that he would be sure after the Spring Festival.
However, he did not expect that the first step he took today would completely shock him. It was completely beyond his imagination.
However, he could already be sure about the Zhu Family. It was clear from the moment he saw his uncle. After all, his uncle's identity was there. He just needed to check it out a little. This was also the fundamental reason why Qin Sheng had the confidence to face Yan Chaozong's group of sworn enemies.
At this moment, Qin Ran did not notice Qin Sheng's strange expression at all. She slowly walked to the kind-looking old man sitting in the main seat. There were two red futons at the feet of the old man. Qin Ran smiled and knelt down. "Ran Ran wishes Grandpa Song a happy New Year. May everything go well and you live a long and healthy life."
Qin Sheng was staring at the old man not far away rudely. The rest of the Song Family did not have any opinions. They could completely understand the reaction of the child in front of them. Obviously, the one in the Qin Family did not tell the child the background of the Song Family. Otherwise, he would not be like this after seeing the Old Master.
The young man sitting at the very bottom was slightly displeased and somewhat disappointed. Was this the future brother-in-law? Alas. The young man sighed subconsciously. How could his arrogant cousin fall in love with this man from the Qin Family? He did not know what Grandpa was thinking.
It was not until he heard his sister's familiar voice that he came back to his senses. He also sensed the young man's dissatisfaction with him. He could not help scolding himself in his heart for not being promising at all and failing at the crucial moment. Now he was representing the Qin Family.
"Girl, get up quickly. The ground is cold. You haven't come to see Grandpa for a long time." The Old Master bowed slightly and stretched out his hand. He was very thin and his face was full of wrinkles and age spots. However, he gave people an indescribable aura, totally different from ordinary old people.
Qin Ran did not dare to let the old man bend down to help her. She quickly stood up to support the old man and said, "Grandpa Song, I'm afraid that some people don't welcome me."
After Qin Ran said that, she deliberately glanced at the young man below. When the others heard this, they all laughed at the same time. What a pair of enemies. Unfortunately, they were not fated to be together.
"Oh, hahaha, you two kids always bicker every time you meet." The old man clearly knew the relationship between his grandson and the Qin family's girl. He could not help laughing.
The young man stared back at Qin Ran without changing his expression, as if he was deliberately provoking her. Qin Ran ignored him and looked at Qin Sheng, who had come to his senses and was walking over. She said, "Qin Sheng, come here quickly and wish Grandpa Song a happy new year."
It was only then that everyone withdrew their gazes and looked at the young man in front of them again. It was as if they wanted to see through Qin Sheng's soul, which made him very uncomfortable.
After the Old Master looked at Qin Sheng again, the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He sighed inexplicably, and there was some sadness in his eyes. Of course, he knew these past events of the Qin family better than anyone else. He did not dare to comment on the storm that year, but it did almost destroy the Qin family.
Some time ago, when Qin Changan called him and told him about this, he did not come to his senses for a long time. First, he felt that Qin Sheng had a hard life. He was innocent, but he had been wronged for so many years. However, what made him feel relieved was that he finally came back. Second, he also knew that his old friend had died a few years ago. After waiting for so many years, he finally got this news, which made him feel somewhat sad. After all, he was indebted to his old friend, which was also an important reason why he took care of Qin Changan so much. He just wanted to return the Qin family's favor.
It had been more than 20 years since they last met. When the Old Master saw Qin Sheng, he thought of the story of his old friend, which was why he let out a sigh.
Qin Sheng slowly knelt down on the rush cushion and said in a low voice, "Qin Sheng wishes Grandpa Song a happy new year."
There were no overly polite words, just simple blessings. After all, he was not as familiar with the Song Family as his sister was. Moreover, he had not recovered from the shock just now. He did not know how to face this old man who used to be a god.
"Child, get up, get up." The old man subconsciously wanted to help Qin Sheng up. Qin Ran hurriedly gestured for Qin Sheng to get up. After all, the old man was so old, they could not afford any accidents.
Qin Sheng stood up slowly, bowed slightly and looked at the old man with a smile. The old man reached out to hold Qin Sheng's hand and said, "Little guy, you have grown up. You definitely can't remember that when I held you when you were young, you peed all over me."
Qin Sheng hurriedly took two steps forward and took the old man's hand. He could feel the strength of the old man's hand. Although he could not remember those stories when he was young, he could feel that the old man valued him.
"Dad, let the two children sit down and talk." The middle-aged man on the left side smiled and tried to smooth things over. He was also afraid that the old man would be too excited.
The old man came to his senses and said, "I'm happy. Xiao He, bring a chair over and let the children sit next to me. I want to have a good talk with them."
Xiao He was the secretary whom Qin Ran called Uncle He. He nodded with a smile and took two chairs from the back. The young man stood up and took one of them. When he walked to Qin Ran's side, he said in a voice that only they could hear, "Is your brother just so-so?"
After hearing this, Qin Ran looked very unhappy. When she took the chair, she did not hesitate to step on the tip of the man's foot when no one was paying attention. The man almost cried out in pain. When he wanted to question her, Qin Ran was already chatting with the old man. He had no choice but to take it.
"Have you seen your grandmother?" The old man asked casually after Qin Ran and Qin Sheng sat down. He was very familiar with the old lady of the Zhu family. After all, they had been old friends for many years. However, the old lady lived in Shanghai most of the time and seldom went back to Beijing. They had not seen each other for some time. After all, the old lady was born in a big family in Shanghai and was used to life there.
Qin Ran replied with a smile, "Grandpa Song, not yet. My brother and I are going to Shanghai on the third day of the Chinese New Year. Grandma doesn't know that my brother is back yet."
"Oh, you hid it well. Even the old lady doesn't know. But if she knew, she would be very happy. I remember that every time I went there, the old lady praised Qin Sheng a lot, "the old man said with a smile.
Qin Ran looked at Qin Sheng and nodded with a smile. "Grandpa Song is right. Grandma loves him the most."
At this time, the old man seemed to think of something. He squinted at the middle-aged man on the right and said, "Xingwen, where is Yu 'er? Wasn't she here just now? "
The middle-aged man's face changed slightly. What was to come would come eventually. So he ordered the young man downstairs, "Hesheng, call Yu 'er over."
Song Hesheng nodded and looked at Qin Sheng, who was not far away. He stood up thoughtfully and walked out of the living room. Apart from when he was a child, this was the first time he had seen Qin Sheng. He did not know why he had a natural resistance to this man. Maybe it was because of the marriage. He felt that no one was worthy of his cousin, including the man in front of him.
However, he was not a stranger to Qin Ran. After all, they had almost been together. Unfortunately, some people had made things difficult for them. Maybe it was fate that they were not fated to be together. So until now, his friends in the circle still joked about this matter.
Just when Song Hesheng was about to open the door and go out, the living room door was pushed open from the outside. He heard a woman's clear voice saying, "Grandpa, I'm here."
