Chapter 352 Go Ahead

It was like Murphy’s law . Qin Sheng hoped he was wrong, but this was exactly what happened .

His father was the unique middle-aged man he had met before in Xiamen . When he met him for the first time, Qin Sheng realized that this man was no small potato . He looked different . He told Qin Sheng that he was from Beijing and was a retired civil servant .

How could Qin Sheng guess that the man was his father?

First, he remembered his father’s photo, taken when he was young, on the wall of the old house . It was kind of similar to the man he had met in Xiamen . His father’s appearance changed with time, but his lineament would not change .

Second, Qin Ran didn’t mention their father after they came back to Beijing . She seemed to be hiding something from him . When they were in the old house, she didn’t tell him about the person in the photo . There had to be something wrong .

Third, Qin Sheng had met Qin Ran for the first time in Xiamen . It was such a coincidence that he also met that middle-aged man in Xiamen .

Three coincidences had to be made by someone deliberately, let alone it had been proved that Qin Ran met him deliberately .

Now, another “coincidence” was proved to be man-made .

Qin Changan went downstairs slowly, looking at Qin Sheng with a smile . Qin Sheng was too astonished to react to what happened . This was as Qin Changan expected . Qin Sheng needed time to accept all the things happening recently .

Qin Changan, however, didn’t go to the side hall directly . At this time, another middle-aged man also went downstairs and said modestly, “Changan, thank you for helping me with this thing . I have no idea what to do next . ”

This middle-aged man was a little bit shorter than Qin Changan and had an average figure . He didn’t have the beer belly that other men of his age had . But he was half-bald and with a pale complexion .

Qin Changan patted the man’s shoulder and said, “I’m not sure . You just come back . If I can make it, I’ll call you . If not, don’t blame me, bro . ”

“Of course I won’t,” the man said and shook his head . Qin Changan was his final hope . He just wanted to make every possible effort . After all, he was hopeless .

At this moment, the other man also noticed Qin Sheng in the side hall . He realized someone was waiting and said, “Changan, I see that you’re busy . I got to go . See you later . ”

“Fine . ” Qin Changan nodded then said to Gongsun, who was following behind, “Gongsun, see Lao Liu off for me . ”

The man turned back and left soon . His face changed the moment he turned back . Qin Sheng saw how he revealed his murderous look as a superior person .

His two bodyguards followed him to leave, with Gongsun following as well . Qin Changan stood still . He even didn’t intend to show the man out of the hall .

The result was obvious . Qin Changan was not going to get involved in this thing . Adding that this man came without informing him, Qin Changan was quite uncomfortable about this .

Qin Ran went upstairs to fetch something and then came back downstairs . She stood beside Qin Changan and said in a pretend voice to hide her emotions, “Master Qin is really a big shot . Even Uncle Liu has to ask you for help . But I wonder who’s more important to you, your son who had been separated from you for over 20 years, or someone else? You know what day today is . If you don’t like your son, take it easy, I’ll take my younger brother away, and we’ll never disturb your life . ”

Qin Ran was very angry when she spoke . She didn’t show any respect to her father, for she thought that Qin Changan had done the wrong thing . She had informed him of Qin Sheng’s arrival last night . Qin Changan had enough time to refuse any arrangements before they arrived at the siheyuan . But how could he spend his time on others and disregard Qin Sheng?

His behavior only showed his underestimation of Qin Sheng . What did Qin Sheng think of this? Did he feel sad? Qin Sheng had grown up without parents . He came to meet his father, but his father was occupied with other business and left him alone there . This was far from enough to be a good father . They had been separated for more than 20 years . In another family, even a separation of half a month would make the father wait for his son at home expectedly .

No matter what Qin Ran said, Qin Changan said nothing to argue and didn’t get angry at all . Qin Changan could take any of Qin Ran’s behavior and speech . In this family, he was just a father, and Qin Ran was his daughter . It was his duty to put up with any of his daughter’s behavior . He always cherished his kinship, especially the tie between his daughter and him .

That was why Qin Changan could put up with Qin Ran like a nice guy who never offended anybody .

He patted Qin Ran’s shoulder and said, “I’ve asked the cook to make your favorite dishes . You just go and have a look . Tell me what else you want to eat . Since your younger brother comes back, I’ll do the cooking for our dinner . ”

Qin Ran gave his father a glance and left . She knew that she should give them some time to get along with each other . Qin Sheng had accepted her, but she was not sure if he was prepared to accept Qin Changan .

Qin Ran had left . Now there were only Qin Changan and Qin Sheng in the side hall . Qin Ran told the others not to go in to allow the father and son to have a private conversation .

Qin Sheng was sitting on the sofa . He said nothing and just squinted, staring at Qin Changan . He was calm due to his astonishment .

Qin Changan dressed rather casually at home . He went jogging every morning . If it was a good day, he would jog in the alleys around, greeting the neighbors, and would have breakfast in some old restaurant . If the weather was bad, he would exercise in the gym in the side building .

“Are you surprised?” Qin Changan asked, walking over to Qin Sheng slowly . He looked calm, but actually had a mix of emotions . He knew deeply how to get along with people . He knew how to pretend and how to tell lies . He was used to this . But he had no idea of how to get along with his own son . Qin Sheng was different from Qin Ran, and was his child .

This was how Qin Changan started the conversation . Qin Sheng was surprised by him again . He hesitated for a while and said, “I’m half surprised and half not surprised . I guessed that it might be you, but I hoped I was wrong . I have no idea how to deal with this situation . ”

Qin Sheng still couldn’t believe that the middle-aged uncle he had met in Xiamen and his so-called father were the same person . They were totally different kinds of persons . The uncle was as kind and familiar as a neighbor he had known for years . They could chat a lot, from the rule of nature to the principle of interpersonal relationships . But the man in front of him, his father, gave him a sense of distance . Qin Sheng, since he entered this siheyuan, had gotten to know more and more about his father . He was definitely not a kind and friendly common person, but a real big shot pulling the strings behind the scenes .

“Well, this is life . No matter what you’re thinking about, truth is truth . It seems that you’ve already known a lot, and you must have known who I am . You can still treat me like the kind uncle you met before . ” Qin Changan was not sure about how to chat with Qin Sheng . Though they were both his children, Qin Sheng was different from Qin Ran . He was the successor of the Qin Family, so Qin Changan had to treat him strictly, rather than the way he treated Qin Ran . Qin Ran was a woman . Qin Changan’s only expectation of her was to lead a simple and happy life, and she need not shoulder any pressure or responsibility .

Qin Sheng sneered and said, “Do you think that’s possible for me?”

Qin Changan had an embarrassed smile and didn’t know how to continue this conversation .

But at this time, Qin Sheng continued to ask, “I had a lot of questions . I’ve asked my sister, but she said she only knows a little . But you must know a lot . That’s why I’m here in Beijing to meet you . ”

“You can ask anything you want . But I have one question for you first . How do you want me to treat you, like a real man, or like my son, who was not fully grown up and was not mature enough? If you choose the former one, I’ll tell you the overall truth . But I’m afraid you cannot take it . If you choose the latter, I have my own plan for this,” Qin Changan said honestly . He put forward this question to give Qin Sheng another test . He had to be cruel to his own son .

Qin Changan’s words were challenging Qin Sheng, so of course he would not choose the former one to give in . He answered without hesitation, “Of course, I’m a real man . ”

“Then, go ahead . Ask anything you’re curious about,” Qin Changan said and shook his head, smiling . Even though most truths were cruel, a mass of people preferred knowing the truth, rather than being cheated by the lie, which made people feel happier and more relaxed .

Qin Sheng had a list of questions on his mind . He was eager to know the truth . This was really important to him .
