On the way from Qingshui City's International Airport to Qingshui Wharf's villa, Qin Changqing held onto Ning Lingyu's hand the entire time. Along the way, he inquired about her well-being and asked all sorts of questions. It was as if he was going to tell her all the love and concern he had accumulated for the past 18 years.
Ling Yun had no chance to interrupt, so he could only focus on driving.
Mo Wu Dao was even more so. The moment he got into the car, he took out his newly bought phone and played with it non-stop. He didn't care about anything else.
Forty minutes later, Ling Yun arrived at Qingshui Wharf Mansion Number Nine, but the door was shut.
Ling Yun scanned the mansion with his divine sense and realized that Qin Dongxue wasn't at home.
Qin Dongxue knew that Qin Changqing would look for her, so she decided to hide in advance.
However, Ling Yun rolled down the window and shouted, "Aunty, open the door, we're back."
Qin Changqing chuckled. "Brat, stop acting. With our realms, how can we not know that there's no one in the mansion?"
"Uh …"
Ling Yun's face immediately turned red.
Qin Changqing was at Xiantian Realm Level Seven, so he could hear falling leaves within a hundred meters. How could he not hear the sound of breathing?
Ever since Ning Lingyu gained divine sense, she realized the usefulness of it. Naturally, she knew that there was no one in the mansion.
Fortunately, Ning Lingyu had the key.
"Grandpa, I'll go down and open the door."
Qin Changqing let go of Ning Lingyu's hand and smiled. "Alright, alright. Let's have a seat in the house."
Then, he sighed and said, "This aunty of yours … Sigh …"
It seemed like Qin Changqing was very disappointed that Qin Dongxue was avoiding him.
Ning Lingyu opened the door, and Ling Yun drove the car into the courtyard and stopped in front of the mansion.
Everyone got out of the car, and Mo Wudao said, "Ling Yun, I think the surroundings are pretty good. Let's take a look around."
Mo Wudao was a slippery person. Since the three of them were at home, he naturally wouldn't be an eyesore.
In a flash, Ning Lingyu appeared beside everyone.
Qin Changqing wasn't surprised by Ning Lingyu's reaction. It was obvious that he understood the basic situation of Lingyun and Ning Lingyu through various channels.
The most important channel wasn't Qin Dongxue, but Aunt Mei.
Ning Lingyu landed beside Qin Changqing. Qin Changqing once again held her hand tightly. Without any hesitation, he walked into the house directly.
The three of them entered the house. Qin Changqing pulled Lingyu to the sofa and sat down. Ling Yun stood at the side.
Qin Changqing held onto Lingyu's hand and scrutinized her for a long time. Tears welled up in his eyes again as he sobbed, "My child, I've made you suffer for so many years …"
This was the family's way of saying it. Once it was said, it meant that they had officially recognized each other as relatives.
Ling Yun used telepathy and said, "Lingyu, kowtow to your grandfather."
Ning Lingyu did not know what to do with this grandfather whom she was meeting for the first time. Naturally, Ling Yun had to remind her.
Ning Lingyu was smart. She immediately stood up and walked to a meter in front of Qin Changqing. She knelt down on both knees and kowtowed to Qin Changqing three times respectfully.
"Lingyu greets Grandfather."
Ning Lingyu kowtowed three times. No matter how strong Qin Changqing was, he couldn't help but tear up.
Qin Changqing accepted Ning Lingyu's three kowtows. He immediately stood up and pulled Ning Lingyu up. "Good girl, you've made me so sad. Does your head hurt? "
"Grandfather, it doesn't hurt."
After Ning Lingyu kowtowed, the ceremony was completed.
"Ling Yun greets Grandfather Qin."
After Ning Lingyu finished kowtowing to Qin Changqing, Ling Yun naturally knew that it was his turn. He had been raised by Qin Qiuyue for eighteen years. Naturally, he also knelt down.
However, he only kowtowed to Qin Changqing once.
After all, they were not blood-related. Other than Qin Changqing, no one else could accept Ling Yun's kowtow.
"Alright, I can accept your kowtow. Get up."
Qin Changqing also accepted Ling Yun's kowtow. He did not take advantage of his seniority, nor did he care about the difference in the way Ling Yun and Ning Lingyu knelt. He also went forward and helped Ling Yun up.
Ling Yun stood up and thought to himself, It seems like Grandfather Qin is a very reasonable and straightforward person. Why is Aunty so abnormal and avoiding him?
Thus, Ling Yun asked, "Grandfather Qin, why don't you chat with Lingyu for a while? I'll go and find Aunty?"
Old Master Qin laughed and waved his hand. "There's no need. Because of your mother, your Aunty already has a grudge against me. Now, because of some other things, I don't know what kind of temper she has. She's throwing a tantrum at me."
"You don't have to look for her. Even if you find her now, she won't come back with you."
Qin Changqing seemed to know his daughter's temper like the back of his hand.
"Ling Yun, sit down."
After Ling Yun sat down, Qin Changqing coughed and cleared his throat. Then, he said, "Ling Yun, because Qiu Yue raised you for eighteen years, we are also a family. As an elder, I don't have to be so polite."
At this time, Qin Changqing's imposing manner as the head of the family was fully displayed. His words and actions were not sloppy at all.
Ling Yun smiled and said, "Grandfather Qin, if you have any instructions, just tell me."
Qin Changqing laughed and said, "Ling Yun, during the battle at Dragon Gate Mountain, you single-handedly fought against the eight major sects. The eight major sects suffered heavy casualties and returned in low spirits. The news has already spread throughout the pugilistic world."
This point, Ling Yun also understood without Qin Changqing saying it. Because that night, Shaolin, Wudang, Kunlun Sword Sect, Deity Sword Mountain, and Divine Fist Sect all had people alive. This matter could not be concealed.
"Grandfather Qin, it's not that exaggerated. That night, I was just lucky."
Qin Changqing nodded. Suddenly, his eyes sharpened. He changed the topic and said, "However, the battle at Dragon Gate Mountain made things a little difficult for Grandfather Qin."
Ling Yun was very clear about this point. It was mainly because he had defeated the Deity Sword Mountain Villa, killed their big senior brother, Guo Xiaotian, and announced in front of all the sects that Qin Dongxue had left the Deity Sword Mountain Villa.
For the past eighteen years, the Qin Family had relied on Deity Sword Mountain. Otherwise, the Qin Family would probably be no better than the Ling Family.
"Hehe, Ling Yun has caused trouble for Grandfather Qin. Please forgive me, Grandfather Qin."
"Hmph!"
Qin Changqing snorted lightly. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"You let Dongxue betray Deity Sword Mountain. You don't know how much trouble you have brought to the Qin Family!"
Qin Changqing's words were a little harsh.
However, he was an elder, and it was the first time they met. Ling Yun could only explain with a bitter smile, "Grandfather Qin, you don't know the situation at that time …"
Qin Changqing waved his hand and said, "I know the situation at that time. I'm not here today to blame you. So, you don't have to explain it to me. "
Then, he suddenly turned to look at Ning Lingyu and said in a warm tone, "Lingyu, I haven't seen you once in the past eighteen years. I didn't care about you even once. You must be blaming me, right?"
When he said this, Qin Changqing's face was full of guilt.
Ning Lingyu shook her head hurriedly. "Grandfather, I didn't. I didn't even know that Mother still had …"
She didn't even know that Qin Qiuyue had the Qin Family behind her!
If it wasn't for Ling Yun's strong rise and the fact that he had killed countless enemies in Qingshui City, who would have thought that Qin Qiuyue was actually a Xiantian Realm master and a member of the Qin Family?
It would have been fine if Ning Lingyu didn't say this, but the moment she said it, Qin Changqing's tears flowed down his face.
"Child, don't say anymore. It's been hard on you …"
"But, but if it wasn't for your mother who didn't listen to my advice and took a wrong step … our Qin Family … our Qin Family … wouldn't have suffered for eighteen years.
"Sigh, but then again, if it wasn't for that step, there wouldn't be you, Lingyu."
Qin Changqing's expression was agitated. He choked on his tears and said incoherently, but Ling Yun understood the hidden message.
At this point, Qin Changqing's emotions calmed down a little. He wiped away the tears on his face and looked up at Ling Yun. "Rascal, you don't have to guess blindly."
"This time, I have a few very important things to do. I won't hide the ins and outs of many things that happened back then from you. I will definitely tell you."
"However, I know that you will be very busy with the opening of your company tomorrow. So, now isn't the time to talk to you about these things. Go do what you need to do first. After tomorrow, we will talk in detail."
Since Old Master Qin had made it so clear, what else was there for Ling Yun to guess? He immediately accepted it.
"Alright, then I will listen to Grandfather Qin."
Qin Changqing waved his hand. "Alright, then go back to Qingshui City. Lingyu will be enough to accompany me here."
He actually sent Ling Yun away directly.
"Uh …"
"Grandfather Qin, look, it's already past two in the afternoon. Should we find a place to eat first?"
Ling Yun had been busy picking up people from the airport and hadn't had time to eat. He was a little hungry.
"Oh, there's no need. You can go eat with the little Daoist from the Maoshan Sect."
Then, Qin Changqing turned his head and looked at Ning Lingyu with a smile. "Lingyu, I heard from Xiao Mei that you learned cooking from your mother?"
The Xiao Mei that Qin Changqing was referring to was naturally Aunt Mei.
Ning Lingyu smiled happily and stood up hurriedly. "Grandfather, I will go cook for you now."
"Alright, alright, alright. Grandfather will be in luck today!"
Qin Changqing laughed heartily. Suddenly, he saw that Ling Yun was still standing there. He immediately glared at him. "Rascal, why are you still here? Are you trying to steal my food?"
Ling Yun chuckled. "Grandfather Qin, I will leave immediately. However, can you tell me my mother's birthday?"
Qin Changqing was stunned. "Why are you asking this?"
Ling Yun said directly, "Grandfather Qin, you know that my mother went to the Sky Mountain Heavenly Sword Sect. I want Mo Wudao to test her luck."
After Qin Changqing heard this, his face immediately collapsed, and he said in a deep voice, "There's no need to test. Qiu Yue will be fine on this trip. It's just that … she will suffer a little and suffer a little."
