"ten."
"Nine."
"eight."
…
The clock struck twelve and in the distance the fireworks were colorful. Huge clusters of flowers exploded in the air and the petals fell like rain, blooming in an instant.
The fireworks somewhat eased the tension and embarrassment. Wenlian was surprised when she saw them. She stared into the distance and said, "Wow, sister, look, look—"
Her voice stopped abruptly.
Ruan Yihan was looking at Qin Haiyao. It had only been a few days since they last met, and she had lost a lot of weight.
Qin Haiyao also looked at Ruan Yihan. After a moment, a line of tears slowly fell from her eyes. The wind blew her hair and her body trembled slightly. That tear was out of tune with the hustle and bustle around her. She raised her hand to wipe it away.
Qin Haiyao turned to Xiaoyan and said, "Let's go."
So close, yet so far away.
She didn't want to stay here and make people feel annoyed.
The scene before her was already heartbreaking, and she was afraid that she would collapse if she continued watching.
Although it was already late at night, the crowd was getting bigger and bigger. Ruan Yihan retracted her gaze, her eyes already full of tears.
Wen Lian followed Ruan Yi Han's gaze and only saw Qin Haiyao's profile. But her profile alone was extremely beautiful, and the most important thing was her aura... Wen Lian's heart slowly sank.
When Ruan Yihan turned around, she said, "Let's go. It's too late. I'll take you home."
Wenlian looked at her and asked softly, "Sister, is it her?"
Ruan Yihan stared at her silently. The crowd not far away was still watching the fireworks and screaming. She nodded gently, "Yeah."
All the way back home.
Wenlian was silent, and Ruan Yihan was also silent. Before getting off the car, Ruan Yihan whispered, "I'm sorry."
Wen Lian shook her head and sniffed the flowers Ruan Yihan bought for her: "Sister, I am still very happy. Good night."
After the midnight carnival, withered flowers were scattered all over the ground.
Ruan Yihan returned home, feeling exhausted. Her grandmother came out to greet her, "You're back? How was your day?"
Ruan Yihan took off her coat, looking tired: "Well, it's okay."
It returned to its lifeless state.
Grandma Ruan stared at her granddaughter for a while and sighed. Ruan Yihan took off her clothes and said, "Grandma, I saw Qin Haiyao, Yingdi and Xiaoyan together today."
Grandma Ruan hesitated: "Xiao Yan?"
Ruan Yihan: "They are all Qin Qin's Eagle Claws. They are both very skilled, but Xiaoyan has always been in the dark."
Grandma Ruan pursed her lips: "You mean—"
Is there any change with Qin Qin
Ruan Yihan looked at her grandmother and asked, "How is Uncle Wang's investigation going?"
She changed into pajamas, tied her hair up, and sat on the edge of the bed.
Grandma Ruan sighed: "I found out that Qin Haiyao is indeed Qin Qin's biological daughter."
Ruan Yihan nodded, opened the window, took out a cigarette from her pocket, and leaned against the window to smoke: "Do you believe grandma this time?"
Grandma Ruan looked at her granddaughter's profile and said, "Yeah."
Ruan Yihan: "What else did you find out?"
Grandma Ruan: "Although Qin Haiyao is Qin Qin's biological daughter, she was adopted by Qin Shan and Huang Lan since she was a child. She also has a younger sister named Qin Momo. You know all this, right?"
Ruan Yihan tapped the ash from her cigarette and looked at her grandmother with her dark eyes: "Yeah."
"The information grandma found may not be the same as what you wrote. This child... was handed over to someone else by Qin Qin just after she turned one month old. In order to avoid being exposed, they have not had many opportunities to meet over the years. Moreover, Qin Qin was extremely strict in her training. Wang Lin has gradually improved her vocal music, dance, Sanda, shooting... During the investigation, a network of relationships gradually formed. Wang Lin visited all of them, and the teachers were all very impressed with her."
Ruan Yihan was silent.
"As for why Qin Qin attacked Qin Mo Mo, grandma doesn't know yet." Grandma Ruan's eyes turned dark, and she said dimly: "She is Hai Kun's child."
The only remaining bloodline of the Qin family.
If... Qin Qin had brought her back immediately and brought her home to tell everyone, Grandma Ruan thought that she and Qin Hailong would definitely support Qin Haiyao without hesitation, and her life would be completely different from now.
The people under Grandma Ruan are all people who have followed the older generation of the Ruan family. Unless you don't suspect anything, if you really suspect someone and check on him, you will always find him by following clues. The most important thing is that a lot of information Ruan Yihan gave her is like a treasure map, pointing directly to the key points, and you can find it clearly without too much trouble.
But now she couldn't figure out why Qin Qin did this
After all, Qin Haiyao is her biological daughter. If she really wants to take revenge, bringing her out in the open would be a crucial bargaining chip. Why is she so cruel to keep her in someone else's home
Under the cover of night.
Grandma Ruan looked at her granddaughter smoking, and this time, she believed her words from the bottom of her heart.
"Ah Han, what are your plans?"
After checking with others, Grandma Ruan became less and less familiar with her granddaughter.
Ruan Yihan blew out a puff of smoke and looked at the bright moon in the sky: "Zheng Fa's place will be ready soon."
"Grandma asked you this question. Don't you think that everything is going a little different from the story you wrote for grandma?"
"That's not a story, grandma." Ruan Yihan turned around and corrected her grandma, her eyes were cold: "I saw it before, it happened right next to me."
Seeing that she was upset, Grandma Ruan sighed and changed the subject: "Your second uncle said that something urgent happened and he had to fly abroad. We can only meet next month."
Ruan Yihan put out her cigarette and said, "Okay, go to bed, grandma."
She became more and more taciturn and used to keeping many things in her heart. This was probably a sign of maturity, but her grandmother felt sad. Such calmness was what she had always hoped for, but now, she missed the granddaughter who always quarreled with her and would hug her and act coquettishly whenever something happened.
The next morning.
Ruan Yihan went to Yi Yang. She moved quickly and gave a few simple instructions. Jiang Zhenyue nodded in understanding, and all his men started to move.
The promotion of "Unexpected Her" has reached its final stage. The first episode will be aired next week. This program is a weekly serial and the shooting progress is very fast.
Leng Ning, the biggest artist in the show, had previously expressed her dissatisfaction with Zheng Fa VG through a live broadcast. Now, in the behind-the-scenes footage of the first shooting, she boldly pointed at the clothes provided by the program team and said, "What is this? It's so ugly."
The artist next to her was from Nanyang. They were from the same school. When he saw the world like this, he covered his mouth embarrassedly and said, "Yeah, it's so crowded."
The male artist next to him put it on and snapped his fingers loudly: "Come on, show me a segment of 'People from Our Village'."
…
The editing of the promotional images is very directional.
The show was already very popular in the early stages, and when this scene came out, Zheng Fa's vg tasted tacky, ##vg why did he have the voice of my sister, and ##Ling Ning tore vg apart quickly became hot searches.
Originally, Zheng Yi had always wanted to find Leng Ning to be the spokesperson, and there was some unpleasantness between the two of them. Now the old past has been dug up.
There were rumors online that the young master of the Zheng family had pursued Leng Ning, but because her family background was too humble, the local prince was not interested in her.
This led to many netizens' spoof videos, which seemed to have been prepared in advance and set off a wave on the Internet.
Follow the crowd and roam in the world of keyboard warriors.
This is what netizens are best at now.
When the first episode came out, it quickly set off a climax due to the novelty of the structure, the early popularity, and the traffic of the stars. It topped the hot searches for several days in a row, and netizens, influenced by the early public opinion, were even more enthusiastic about it.
—vgGive me back my beautiful sister.
A fashionable home in vg village.
vg licking my brother’s face is not enough.
…
Various headlines and hot searches appeared one after another. When Zheng Yi learned the news, he was so angry that his face turned pale.
He had finally convinced his grandfather to take the risk and take on the exclusive sponsorship, hoping to gain some popularity during the filming of the show, but now he has become the target of ridicule from the entire Internet.
When Mr. Zheng found out, he was so angry that his nose almost dropped and he was furious.
Not only that, some entertainment reporters also took the opportunity to bring up the scandal that Zheng Yi, the crown prince of the Zheng family, slept with many women.
The picture was captured clearly. In the hotel, several beautiful women entered one after another. The door was opened by Zheng Yi himself. He seemed to have drunk a lot of wine. He came out staggeringly, naked, with only a bath towel wrapped around him. Those women stayed in the hotel room all night.
When Zheng Yi saw the video, his face turned pale and his hands and feet were cold.
That night.
He watched Ruan Yihan and Qin Haiyao leave, feeling extremely jealous. As soon as he entered the room, he grabbed Wang Di and kissed him as if to vent his anger. Unexpectedly, Wang Di smiled and dodged his kiss, and asked in his ear: "Boss Zheng, do you know the woman next to Boss Ruan just now? I saw that you looked very angry."
Her voice was soft, but it touched Zheng Yi's most painful point. His anger was instantly dissipated. With a gloomy face, Zheng Yi sat on the sofa and smoked fiercely.
"Hey, why are you still angry?" Wang Di's slender waist wrapped around Zheng Yi softly. She touched Zheng Yi's face: "Mr. Zheng, don't be unhappy." She opened a bottle of wine: "Come, I'll apologize to you. I shouldn't have mentioned that Mr. Zheng was unhappy."
Zheng Yi raised his eyebrows: "Are you just going to accompany me like this?"
Wang Di smiled, "What else?" She thought for a moment and turned around seductively, "How about I call a few pretty girls over to drink with President Zheng? That woman is blind. There's no need for President Zheng to get angry over her, right?"
…
Zheng Yi's biggest shortcoming is that he is unstable and lacks self-control. He is so angry right now that he feels like exploding when he thinks about Qin Haiyao flirting with Ruan Yihan.
…
As for later.
After Wang Di and her sisters each drank a glass of wine and successfully drank Zheng Yi, the sisters drank and ate melons. One of the girls with long yellow hair asked, "Sister, who is this? Such a dish."
Wang Di smiled and picked a grape with her slender hands: "Okay, let's go now. This is not the place to chat."
Before leaving.
Wang Di also carefully helped Zheng Yi to the bed and removed the only bath towel that was wrapped around him.
The next day, Zheng Yi slept until noon before waking up. His head was buzzing and he felt dizzy. He looked around but saw no one. He called out a few times but no one came. He lifted the quilt and was stunned when he saw his naked body.
It can’t be…
I didn't expect that.
Unexpectedly.
Is all this a setup
Wait for him to join the game
Who is it??? Ruan Yihan??? Or… who
Mr. Zheng kicked the door open and threw the Entertainment Weekly in his hand at his grandson, "Rebellious son, rebellious son!!! Our Zheng family's century-old reputation has been ruined by you, I will beat you to death I—"
The Zheng family's housekeeper hugged the old man tightly from behind, "Don't worry... You..."
Mr. Zheng felt dizzy and fell back two steps weakly. Zheng Yi ran over in fear: "Grandpa! Grandpa!"
***
Ruan Yihan was very relaxed today. She was drinking coffee and chatting with Jiang Zhenyue. Jiang Zhenyue was holding a Tibetan knife beside her and peeling apples one by one.
It had been a long time since she had spent such a relaxed time with Ruan Yihan. Jiang Zhenyue ate a piece and handed it to Ruan Yihan. She used the knife very skillfully. She used to eat meat and drink wine with the Tibetan residents in the same way, feeling comfortable and happy.
Ruan Yihan looked at the knife in her hand that was shining coldly: "You... carry this with you?"
Jiang Zhenyue turned her hand over and showed it off in front of Ruan Yihan as if she was playing a trick: "Yes, I want to kill a playboy like you. How about cutting my heart out piece by piece?"
Ruan Yihan shrugged helplessly, "Then you better be careful and don't hurt yourself."
Jiang Zhenyue didn't say anything. She stared at the knife in her hand and said, "I heard that you and Wenlian are together?"
Almost choking on the apple in her mouth, Ruan Yihan sat up straight, a little embarrassed: "Yeah."
Jiang Zhenyue looked at her: "Why?"
Ruan Yihan: "Why?"
Jiang Zhenyue's eyes were always sharp. She had been like this since she was a child. This was also the reason why Ruan Yihan was afraid of her: "You don't like her."
Ruan Yihan was silent.
Jiang Zhenyue looked at her expression and said, "Ah Han, this is not like you."
Ruan Yihan looked at her: "Then what do you say is me?"
Jiang Zhenyue stared into her eyes and said without thinking: "The Ruan Yihan I know, she likes to laugh very much, she is timid and afraid of rain, her heart is soft but kind, she is in a high position but never looks down on anyone, she is willing to help those around her, she is a rare pure white in this world."
While saying these words, Jiang Zhenyue's eyes were fixed on Ruan Yihan. "Can you tell me, what is this all about?"
Ruan Yihan looked at Jiang Zhenyue calmly. Jiang Zhenyue's eyes were very gentle, and the misty light seemed to be able to bury her. Ruan Yihan sighed, "I am no longer the person I used to be."
She was once killed by Qin Haiyao herself.
What simplicity.
What kindness.
Everything she had was completely gone the moment she realized Qin Haiyao had deceived her.
Ruan Yihan looked into Jiang Zhenyue's eyes for a long time, and she whispered, "Yueyue, don't like me. Love is the most unreliable thing in this world. It can't last forever. Only family and friendship can last a lifetime."
The knife in Jiang Zhenyue's hand fell to the ground. Her eyes turned red as she looked at Ruan Yihan: "Should I praise you for being sincere or cruel? You can deceive Wenlian, so why can't you deceive me?"
She knows.
It turns out that she knew.
Ruan Yihan smiled, her eyes turned red. She was so dirty now that she was no longer worthy of anyone.
That half month.
Ruan Yihan buried herself in her work. She became more and more numb and less and less willing to laugh.
Zheng Fa's VG reputation has fallen to the bottom. Although various public relations have reversed the bad situation of what is called a lady, Zheng Yi has also become a philandering rich second-generation who is beaten by everyone. Some powerful netizens even dug out that he and Cindy, who drove under the influence of drugs and caused trouble, were friends in the same circle. Everyone began to speculate whether he had the same habit.
The Zheng family's roots are not clean. With the pressure of online public opinion, the relevant departments have begun to pay attention. Now, let alone strengthening Zheng Fa, the entire Zheng family is in danger.
Mr. Zheng went to see Qin Qin halfway through the process. Qin Qin had been so overwhelmed by Xiao Hai's affairs recently that she had no time to deal with him.
She would never stay with useless people.
Mr. Zheng originally wanted to seek help from Qin Qin, but who would have known that this time, Qin Qin would cut off all financial transactions with the Zheng family and withdraw all previous help. Moreover, she did it very neatly and without any drag.
Zheng Yi went to Yi Yang and wanted to find Ruan Yi Han, but was stopped at the door. President Ruan refused to see him. He dated so many girls every day, and there were all kinds of bad news about him on the Internet. President Ruan had directly sued him for breach of contract and let the program crew take the blame. If the amount of liquidated damages is really awarded, the Zheng family will have no choice but to go bankrupt.
He had nowhere to go.
Grandpa is still lying in bed and can't get up.
Zheng Yi had no choice but to go to Nanyang every day with his last hope, asking Qin Qin to see him. Now, as long as it could help his family, he would do anything.
Duan Zi's injuries had basically healed, but he still spoke like an old zipper that was out of oil. He stood behind Qin Qin and said slowly, "This was Ruan Yihan's doing."
From his throat injury, to Xiao Hai's reaction and change, and then to Zheng Fa now.
Many answers are ready to emerge.
The bandage on Qin Qin's hand had not been removed yet. She turned the ring irritably: "What did I do wrong that made her notice it?"
The joke is also confusing.
The Zheng family is no longer useful. The power that they have secretly supported for many years has been uprooted before it can really play a role.
Qin Qin has always been cautious, and she would never use key companies and enterprises that have been under the attention of relevant departments.
It’s just that support...will take some time.
Things came in one after another, and the old lady's frequent trials and interventions gave her a headache.
Pressure surged from all sides. Qin Qin looked out the window with his hands behind his back: "Did you find the thing?"
Duan Zi lowered his head: "No."
In this world, only Qin Qin knew where that important thing was placed. How could it disappear out of thin air
Qin Qin's eyes were full of annoyance. She walked around the room with her hands behind her back: "Don't let Zheng Yi go completely yet. Maybe he will be useful to us in the future."
His status and position are useless now, but when he is at the end of his rope, the mentality of doing everything for profit can sometimes play a big role.
Duanzi nodded.
Qin Qin looked at him: "Is Yingdi still with Xiaohai?"
Duan Zi nodded, and there was silence for a while.
He didn't know what kind of magic the eldest lady used to make Yingdi turn against them.
That's his brother, whom he had brought up since childhood. So they were in a passive position. Ying Di had a lot of information that was not disclosed. Since he had surrendered to Qin Haiyao, Qin Haiyao must know everything.
She is holding back now.
Qin Qin didn't dare to act rashly. What's more, she had something else she was more worried about. If her daughter took it...
She took a deep breath and looked out the window.
—Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs. Xiaohai, don’t force your mother to really do something to you.
Ruan Yihan has almost immersed herself in work during this period.
During the trip, Wenlian came to see her several times. She also forced herself to accompany her, but her smile was a little forced. Every time she left, Wenlian looked at her distressedly: "Sister, you must be very tired, you should have a good rest."
Ruan Yihan nodded, "I ate the food you sent."
Wen Lian nodded and looked into Ruan Yi Han's eyes. "Sister, grandma's birthday is next week."
Ruan Yihan nodded. People are rarely old when they are seventy years old. She wanted to prepare a grandma's birthday celebration, but her grandmother disagreed, saying that old people should not celebrate their birthdays, otherwise the King of Hell would know and call them away early. She thought of just having a simple meal at home.
Wenlian said softly, "I may not be able to go through."
Ruan Yihan put down the materials in her hand and looked at her. Wenlian's eyes were moist. She didn't want to cry, but tears still fell. She walked to Ruan Yihan and hugged her gently.
Even after the two of them said they wanted to be together, such intimacy was rare.
Ruan Yihan looked at Wenlian and had a vague premonition of something. Wenlian choked up and said, "Sister, I can't hold on any longer."
Originally, she thought that as long as she loved Ruan Yihan enough, she would be able to melt her heart.
But during this half month, Ruan Yihan became more and more haggard day by day. Although she smiled at her, Wen Lian knew that she was not happy.
"I'm still not good enough to make you fall in love with me, right?" Wenlian's tears flowed down drop by drop, and Ruan Yihan's eyes were hot: "It's not your fault, Wenlian, the fault is mine."
Wen Lian held back her tears and said, "Sister, I let you go, not because I don't love you enough, but because I'm afraid."
She is scared.
She was afraid that if they lived together like this day after day, the calmness and indifference would gradually destroy her childhood dreams.
Back then, that stunning glimpse, although it was the basis of all her wishful thinking over the years, it was the most precious thing in Wenlian's heart.
"Will you be happy if I let you go, sister?"
"sorry."
Apart from these three words, Ruan Yihan didn't know what to say. Wen Lian wiped away her tears. She didn't want to be like this in Ruan Yihan's eyes. "What are you saying sorry, sister? You have been very good to me in the past month, just like an older sister."
She’s a real sister.
Polite and gentle, but never anything more.
There were even many times when Ruan Yihan sent her home at night, Wenlian's heart would beat fast, thinking and expecting something to happen, and she would deliberately pull her around in circles in the community and refused to go back.
But in the end, it was Ruan Yihan who just smiled faintly.
She would smile at her.
It's because of guilt, not because of love.
Ruan Yihan tried hard. She wanted to fall in love with Wenlian and even thought that with her, her heart would not be so painful.
But the reality is completely different.
Sometimes two people together can feel lonelier than one person.
"You said you would give me the final initiative." Wen Lian sniffed the scent of Ruan Yihan reluctantly, she stood up and stepped back with a tearful smile: "Okay, sister, starting today, we officially break up."
She let her go, and let herself go.
She didn't know how deep the love could be to make her sister miss him so much and suffer so much.
She thought about it for a long time, maybe she would never be able to let go.
After she had used up all her strength and no longer saw herself in Ruan Yihan's eyes, Wen Lian chose to let go.
A light rain began to fall.
Ruan Yihan stood in front of the window with her arms folded, looking out.
She thought of Wenlian's smile and the true love she had shown her during this period of time, and sighed softly.
Ruan Yihan pressed the intercom and called A-li in. "Wenlian likes piano and has always wanted to be Sam's apprentice but never had the chance. You go and do something in secret. No matter what Sam asks, satisfy her."
Ali nodded and looked at Ruan Yihan in confusion: "Why don't you go directly to Sam? Isn't Miss Wen your girlfriend?"
Ruan Yihan frowned: "What are you talking about? Remember, do it secretly and don't let Wenlian know."
Ali nodded and understood a little.
Before she closed the door and left, she whispered, "The old lady said that Mr. Qin is back and asked you to come over for afternoon tea around four o'clock."
Ruan Yihan nodded. She sat in the chair in a daze for a while before going out.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw Qin Qin's car.
The car door opened and Qin Qin got out of the car. She looked at Ruan Yihan with a smile in her eyes, as if nothing had happened.
Ruan Yihan looked at her calmly, "Aunt Qin."
Nowadays, they can still be so calm and composed.
Qin Qin nodded and looked at Ruan Yihan: "Ah Han, I heard that the variety show you invested in is very popular."
Isn't it very popular
There were topics, traffic, and a big piece of gossip broke out in the middle.
Ruan Yihan prepared everything in advance, including professional marketing, strong legal support, and entertaining guidance. Zheng Fa took all the blame and they made a fortune.
For the first time, Qin Qin realized that the little girl whom she had always looked down upon was not that simple. When Mr. Zheng came to argue with her, it was simply because Nanyang and Yi Yang were tied together in this program and they were inseparable. He also didn't quite believe that Ruan Yihan, that young girl, would attack her friend so meticulously and slowly. So he thought that he was being retaliated against because he had refused to agree to Qin Qin's request regarding the previous matter in Myanmar.
What a good trick to kill with a borrowed knife.
Ruan Yihan smiled slightly and looked into Qin Qin's eyes: "All of this still depends on your support, aunt."
Qin Qin stared at her for a while, and as the wind blew, she nodded: "You have grown up. Okay, go and get busy. Auntie is here to take a look at the construction site."
Ruan Yihan nodded: "I just happen to have something to go home for, please do as you please."
There was a hint of anger mixed in with the strange politeness.
Ruan Yihan got in the car and watched Qin Qin leave. She made a phone call and said, "Well, keep an eye on her and tell me everything she does in Ruan's company."
…
Explain everything.
Ruan Yihan closed her eyes and rested in the car.
Ali looked at her pale face and sighed softly.
Ah Han is becoming more and more like a CEO, and more and more indifferent, but...
When Ruan Yihan arrived home.
Grandma was drinking tea with Uncle Qin in the pavilion. Uncle Qin looked very manly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. There was a scar on his forehead, which was said to be left from a fight when he was young. He was a serious person on weekdays, so people around him were a little afraid of him. But he would often smile at grandma, and the scar from his smile was particularly hideous.
"Second Uncle!"
Ruan Yihan hadn't seen Qin Hailong for more than half a year. Qin Hailong turned his head and looked at her: "Well, you've grown up."
There was a change in his gaze, and Ruan Yihan felt it. She looked at her grandmother, who was sitting there looking at her and seemed to be worried about something as well.
Ruan Yihan simply greeted them and went into the house to change her clothes. After a while, she was changed and sat between her grandmother and second uncle.
Qin Hailong stared at her for a while and smiled slightly: "Ah Han, are you used to coming to the company?"
Ruan Yihan took a sip of tea and blew away the tea leaves: "You have to get used to it even if you're not used to it, right?"
Qin Hailong smiled and said, "Mature."
Grandma Ruan looked at her granddaughter and said, "It's a good thing that you're back. I just had a long chat with your second uncle. He knows a lot about this. There's no need to hide it."
The Ruan family’s courtyard is beautiful, with fragrant fallen leaves and flowers and shade trees everywhere.
Ruan Yihan didn't expect her grandmother to be so straightforward. She looked at her second uncle, not knowing how to start the conversation for a moment.
Qin Hailong took a sip of tea and said quietly, "After all, she is my sister, and later my sister-in-law. I thought... she wouldn't take such a drastic path."
Ruan Yihan was stunned. Looking at her second uncle's expression, it seemed that he already knew about Qin Qin's affairs
Qin Hailong smiled and said, "I came to see you and the old lady today because I have something to tell you about family matters. It's too complicated at this time and I don't know how to say it. How about this, I'll drive you to my second uncle's house. My second uncle bought a courtyard house in Nanhai. Doesn't Ah Han like to have parties? Let's have it there tonight."
When Ruan Yihan heard this, she felt something vaguely. She looked up at her grandmother, but Grandma Ruan was drinking tea and didn't look at her.
Get in the car and have a smooth journey.
Qin Hailong and his grandmother would chat about things from their youth from time to time. It's like that as people get older, they love to reminisce about the past more and more.
Ruan Yihan listened with half an ear, and at the end of the conversation, the topic inevitably fell on the children.
"Is Yiyi still determined to be a singer?" Grandma Ruan looked at Qin Hailong. The "Yiyi" she was referring to was Qin Hailong's only daughter. Qin Yiyi had been spoiled since childhood and had a strong personality and temper. She had been studying music abroad and only returned to China in recent years. She did not have much contact with the Ruan family, and Ruan Yihan was not very close to her.
Qin Hailong nodded. "The child is grown up and we can't make decisions for her. Let her like it. Her personality is not suitable for running a company. I won't force her."
He has experienced a lot in his life and has become indifferent to many things. He just hopes that his daughter will be happy.
Grandma Ruan paused and said, "You have made plans."
Qin Hailong nodded. "The empire that the old man worked so hard to build cannot grow in my hands, and I can't just watch it go to waste."
Grandma Ruan stopped talking. She looked at the scenery outside the car window, her eyes slightly red.
What a prosperous family it was back then, but now... some are dead, some are betrayed.
Qin Hailong has many thoughts similar to Grandma Ruan, and he doesn't like extravagance.
I don’t know how big the yard he bought is, but it feels like the courtyard house I had when I was a child.
The furniture was not particularly luxurious, far inferior to that of Judongfeng. Every blade of grass and tree inside was planted by him personally in his spare time.
He took the old lady around, and a tall girl came out from behind the curtain. She was very beautiful, with fair skin, a slender neck, a tall figure, and long hair. She wore a white gauze skirt similar to the ancient style, and held a guzheng in her hand. She had just finished practicing, and when she saw a few people, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Grandma?"
Grandma Ruan smiled softly: "Well, Yiyi, long time no see."
It's been a long time.
Qin Yi nodded, and she turned to look at Ruan Yihan: "Ah Han, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you are in love."
Ruan Yihan: …
Saying this right at the start.
Ruan Yihan stared at Qin Yi and said with a fake smile: "Hello, Miss Qin."
They had a fight when they were young, and one of them gave the other a bump on the head. Although they didn't meet often, they were always weird and unruly every time they met.
"I'm not a young lady." Qin Yi said, tilting her head and looking at her. Ruan Yihan was frightened by her eyes. Qin Hailong looked at the two children and laughed: "Today is a family dinner, everyone relax. Except for the barbecue, I will cook everything else myself."
Family dinner
Qin Yi raised her eyes and said mercilessly: "Don't call me Third Aunt, I've seen enough of her hypocritical face."
The third aunt she was referring to was Qin Qin.
Qin Hailong's expression immediately changed after hearing this: "After all, he is your elder, how can you talk like that?!"
Qin Yi raised her eyebrows and said, "How can you talk like that? Well, I won't waste my time talking to you. I'm going to play the piano for my cousin."
cousin
Ruan Yihan suddenly looked up at Qin Yi, who raised her eyebrows provocatively: "Boss Ruan, will you come with me to take a look?" As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes fell on Ruan Yihan's back. Qin Yi raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Maybe, you can take a look yourself." She smiled and walked over with the piano in her arms: "Cousin, didn't you say you would wait for me? Why are you out now?"
Qin Hailong didn't expect her to come out like this, but it was okay. Seeing her in person was better than him having to explain so much.
Grandma Ruan had guessed something from the conversation between Qin Hailong and herself, so she was not that surprised.
Only Ruan Yihan was shocked. She turned around stiffly and looked at the person behind her. Her eyes suddenly widened with disbelief.
