A Lonely Back
In the alley where the Qin Family was located, all the gates were closed and the walls were high. Nobody could see what was going on inside from the outside, so there were no ordinary families here. Usually, people didn't walk around. After all, cars were coming and going. Moreover, they were all rich and powerful people. How could they have time?
Anyway, they were old neighbors who had lived here for many years. Of course, they knew each other, but they didn't have much interaction. Even if they knew the specific background of each family, they wouldn't deliberately walk around. They just nodded to each other when they saw each other. Because the power field in Sijiu City was particular about social circle and identity. Not everyone could be friends with each other.
Qin Sheng didn't know the background of Ke 'er's family, but if Qin Changan was here, he would definitely tell him what the elders of the Li Family did. Similarly, Ke 'er's family also knew the background of the Qin Family and Qin Changan's prominent identity. However, the Li Family was not an ordinary family, and they were not in the same social circle. Naturally, they wouldn't be close to each other.
If it was on a normal day, Ke 'er's parents definitely wouldn't disturb them. But today, the man of the Qin Family sent Ke' er back in person. No matter how they tried to keep a distance, they had to pay a visit out of courtesy, lest outsiders think that they were so uneducated.
When the bodyguard at the door came in and told Qin Sheng that a guest was looking for him, Qin Sheng hurried out to welcome him. Chang Baji and Hao Lei also followed him out.
Ke 'er's parents stood in the front yard with Ke' er. They didn't walk in recklessly. They knew the rules of these rich families better than anyone else, so they could only wait for their master to come out.
As soon as Qin Sheng walked out of the middle yard, Ke 'er broke free from her mother's restraint and ran to him. She deliberately joked, "Brother, we meet again. Did you miss me?"
The innocent Ke 'er was really naive. Only rich families could raise such a child, who could filter the darkness and filth of the world for them. As for the children of ordinary families, they had to experience the bitterness and bitterness of life at a young age. This was the reality.
"Ke 'er, don't be so rude." Ke' er's mother, who was standing not far away, was a little unhappy. She was dressed more formally, so she should have just come home.
Ke 'er's mother was very beautiful. She was a young woman in her thirties. She looked elegant, but there was a hint of coldness between her eyebrows. The man standing beside her smiled and said, "Children are all like this. Don't worry about her."
The man, who was wearing glasses, looked very approachable and always smiling. He walked slowly to Qin Sheng and said, "I'm sorry to bother you. I'm Ke 'er's father. My name is Li Kun. This is my wife, Fu Wen. Thank you so much for today. I don't know how to thank you."
Qin Sheng touched Ke 'er's head and said with a smile, "It's okay. It's just a piece of cake. I didn't expect that I would live in the same alley as Ke' er. But you have to be careful in the future. Ke 'er is still young and it's very dangerous for her to go out alone. No matter how busy you are, you can't forget to pick up the child. "
Li Kun stopped smiling and said, "I had an impromptu meeting. The leader arranged so many things in front of me, which also affects my future. I sent you a text message to explain. Can't you understand me?"
Li Kun stopped smiling and said, "Didn't I have an impromptu meeting? The leader arranged so many things in front of me. This is also related to my future. I sent you a text to explain. Can't you understand me?"
Li Kun stopped smiling and said, "I had an impromptu meeting. The leader arranged so many things in front of me, which also affects my future. I sent you a text message to explain. Can't you understand me?"
Ke 'er pouted and said helplessly, "Quarreling again. Always quarreling."
Qin Sheng felt a little strange. Obviously, Ke 'er's mother was more domineering, and Ke' er's father did not have a position in the family, so they always quarreled.
"I don't want to quarrel with you." Li Kun stopped Fu Wen with one sentence.
Then he turned to Qin Sheng and said, "I'm sorry to let you see a joke. We like to quarrel. Anyway, thank you for what you did today. We came here for nothing. We just wanted to thank you in person. "
Qin Sheng remembered that he did not invite them in. He said quickly, "It's okay, it's really okay. It's a little cold outside. Let's go in and sit for a while."
Li Kun refused politely, "It's okay. The old people at home are waiting for dinner."
While Li Kun and Qin Sheng were talking, Fu Wen kept quietly looking at Qin Sheng. She knew the background of the Qin family in this alley, but she had never seen the man in front of her. Ke 'er said that his name was Qin Sheng, and he lived here. She did not know the relationship between him and the man.
"Hasn't Master Qin come back yet?" Fu Wen asked casually. Li Kun immediately stared at his wife. Obviously, it was taboo.
Qin Sheng did not take it seriously. He smiled and shook his head. "He hasn't come back yet. He might come back later."
Not knowing whether Qin Sheng was too polite or Fu Wen was too greedy, she asked unscrupulously, "We have lived in this alley for many years. Why haven't we seen you before? Pardon me, but what's your relationship with Master Qin? "
After hearing Fu Wen's words, Li Kun's face changed obviously, but he was more looking forward to Qin Sheng's answer. After all, he was also very curious about Qin Sheng's identity.
Qin Sheng said honestly, "He is my father."
"Oh, I see." Fu Wen smiled very charmingly and did not ask the previous question about why hadn't she seen him before.
Li Kun was afraid that his wife would continue to ask random questions, so he said quickly, "It's getting late. We won't bother you anymore. We will invite you to our home another day. We'll go back first."
After saying that, Li Kun called Ke 'er over. Ke' er said goodbye to Qin Sheng reluctantly, and then left the Qin family with her parents. Qin Sheng walked them out.
After leaving the siheyuan of the Qin family, Li Kun snorted coldly. "You are too nosy. Why did you ask those questions? Isn't it superfluous?"
"How is it superfluous? Don't tell me that you don't want to know the young man's identity? " Fu Wen replied disapprovingly. Others said that women should take care of their husbands and children, but she always thought that women were not as good as men. Moreover, she had always been faster than her husband, so she had a higher status in the family.
Li Kun sneered. "Qin Changan has been in trouble recently. So what if we know?"
"Is this the reason why you deliberately keep your distance? Sometimes, the Li family is too short-sighted, so you haven't made much progress. I don't think so. Although Qin Changan has no contact with them, this young man is Qin Changan's son. Even if something really happens to Qin Changan, do you think they will stand by and do nothing? So the result is still unknown. "Fu Wen analyzed and said.
Li Kun was not convinced. "Then let's make a bet."
"How? What do you want to bet?" Fu Wen replied confidently.
After thinking for a while, Li Kun said playfully, "I bet that they won't help. If I win, can we try that posture? If you win, I will take care of the housework this year. "
After hearing Li Kun's shameless words, Fu Wen blushed slightly, which made her more attractive. She hesitated for a while and replied, "Okay, then I will make a bet."
The young couple seemed to have forgotten that Ke Er was following them. Ke Er was also absent-minded at this moment. She was thinking about what excuse to ask Qin Sheng to go out to play in the future. Even if she heard it, she obviously wouldn't understand it.
In the siheyuan of the Qin Family, Chang Baji and Hao Lei left after dinner. Nangong had arranged a place for them to stay in a nearby five-star hotel. After all, there were many hotels in this area.
After Qin Sheng packed his luggage, he prepared what he needed for tomorrow's class and waited for Qin Changan to come back.
When it was almost midnight, Qin Changan, who smelled of alcohol, came back with Gongsun. After seeing Qin Sheng sitting in the living room, Qin Changan, who was slightly drunk, smiled and said, "You are back."
Although the father and son hadn't untied the knot, their relationship was not as stiff as before. Qin Sheng stood up and replied, "Yes, I came back in the afternoon."
Qin Sheng hesitated for a while and said, "You are old. You'd better drink less in the future. It's not good for your health."
This seemingly casual sentence made Qin Changan's heart filled with warmth. After all, it was his son's concern for him. Qin Changan said happily, "Some old friends got together and drank a little. Everyone in Beijing knows that I, Qin Changan, am not drunk even after a thousand drinks."
After saying the last sentence, Qin Changan said in a hurry, "It's better to drink less. I am old, I am old."
After Qin Changan sat down, Qin Sheng greeted Uncle Gongsun. The servants also hurried to serve the prepared sobering tea. They had long been used to Qin Changan coming back late.
"Although my sister didn't say anything about what happened in Ningbo, I know you helped me. So I still want to thank you," Qin Sheng said unhurriedly. However, he still felt that what he said was a little weird.
Qin Changan said seriously, "There is no need to say thank you to a father and son. Have you ever seen a family like this? You are my son. You were bullied. If I don't help you vent your anger, how can I be your father? Our Qin Family is not a pushover. Any cat or dog dares to act wildly. "
Qin Sheng nodded and did not refute this sentence. After all, father and son were father and son.
Qin Sheng hesitated for a moment and still asked, "Is something wrong with the company?"
Qin Changan was a little surprised and directly refuted, "Who did you hear this from? How is it possible? I, Qin Changan, have been in Sijiu City for so many years. I have seen all kinds of things and experienced all kinds of troubles. It is just a small thing. You don't have to think so much. "
Qin Changan was afraid that Qin Sheng would continue to ask. After drinking the tea, he directly stood up and said, "I am a little tired. I can't talk to you today. If there is anything else, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Qin Sheng nodded slightly. He could tell that Qin Changan was already drunk. It was just that Qin Changan tried to stay sober after seeing Qin Sheng. However, it was not possible for him to stay sober all the time. Just like the way Qin Changan spoke just now, he lacked some of his usual dignity, which surprised Qin Sheng a little.
Qin Sheng watched as Qin Changan went upstairs alone. When Qin Changan went up the stairs, he had no choice but to hold on to the railing. He bent his body and continued to walk forward with difficulty. It was unknown whether he was drunk or he was really old.
