Strongest Counterattack

Chapter 361 Qin Sheng Began to Change His Mind...

It was not until Nangong turned around and planned to go back that she saw Qin Ran standing under a tree not far away. She was staring at the uncle and nephew, who were chatting by the lakeside, from afar. She did not know when she had arrived there.

Originally, Qin Ran had planned to accompany her uncle to come over yesterday. Unfortunately, her uncle had an important meeting the next day, which could not be put off. Consequently, she had waited for her uncle for one more day. Meanwhile, she had gone back to the company to deal with some work. After all, during this period, many things had been delayed. She had called and informed Qin Sheng yesterday. It was not until this morning that she accompanied her uncle here.

After Nan Gong approached Qin Ran, she asked, “Sister Ran, when did you come over?”

When Qin Ran saw that Nangong was dressed in such light clothing, she took off her scarf and handed it to Nangong as she said, “I just arrived here. You are dressed so lightly. Aren’t you afraid that you will be cold? Put on this scarf quickly. ”

Nangong was very moved secretly, and did not refuse Qin Ran. Instead, she smiled foolishly and thought, “It’s Qin Sheng’s fault.” It was because she had feared that Qin Sheng would run away that she had dashed out hurriedly.

Nangong tied the scarf round her neck, as she said, “Thanks. Sister Ran, Sister Ran, you treat me very well.”

Qin Ran did not know whether she should laugh or cry as she said, “Stupid girl.” She did treat Nangong as her blood kin sister. Even if Qin Sheng came back, she would not favor one and neglect the other. After all, Nangong and Qin Sheng’s experiences were similar, except that Qin Sheng had found his family members, and Nangong would never have such an opportunity.

Qin Ran hesitated for a moment and said, “Yezi, since I am your sister, can you do me a favor? Don’t tell the old man about the meeting between my uncle and Qin Sheng today. I want to let Xun and Qin Sheng communicate more with my uncle. After all, my uncle loved Qin Sheng the most, when Qin Sheng was a kid. After that, he will enlighten Qin Sheng slowly and solve the issue between him and the old man.”

Yezi was Qin Ran’s nickname for Nangong. That was because Nangong’s full name was Nangong Ye, which had been given by Qin Chang’an. According to Qin Chang’an, back when he had met Nangong for the first time, his first impression of her was that she was somewhat gloomy. Even though everyone else was crying bitterly, she just stared blankly at the fallen leaves outside the windows by herself. It seemed that she was a piece of leaf, which had dropped from the tree, drifting and dancing in the wind. She would go in whichever direction the wind blew. After that, she could never find her way home.

Nangong pouted and hesitated. After all, it was her foster father who had sent her over. She had to report everything to him. Otherwise, her foster father would definitely punish her. However, Nangong was also her sister. In that case, how could she choose between them?

In the end, Nangong nodded and promised Qin Ran as she said, “Well, Sister Ran, rest assured that I won’t tell foster father anything.”

Qin Ran helped Nangong to rearrange her scarf and chuckled as she said, “Stupid girl.”

By the lakeside of Yanqi Lake, it was snowing as always.

Zhu Weiguo’s last sentence killed Qin Sheng in an instant, leaving him standing at a loss, in the snow. God had played a joke on Qin Sheng once again. Originally, he had thought that the person he had encountered was nobody, but a passerby. He had just vented his feelings to him, which had made him feel more comfortable in his heart. It did not occur to him the final result would be like this. The middle-aged man turned out to be his uncle.

Alas, Qin Sheng was still too young. Originally, he had been wary of him. It did not occur to him that he would be won over by a few simple words. However, the twist in the plot came at the end, which was like a severe slap in his face.

Qin Sheng muttered to himself as he said, “Are you my uncle?”

Zhu Weiguo walked over and patted Qin Sheng on his shoulders as he said, “It seems that you have no impression of me anymore. I loved you so much when you were little. I bought you everything, from toys to food, if they were available. You held my thighs often and shouted, asking me to buy you the sugarcoated haws on a stick to eat. After you took the food and drinks, you even saved some to bring to your sister. Once, I took you to the office. I did not know how you managed to get my gun out, which gave me a big scare.”

As Zhu Weiguo talked, he burst out laughing in amusement. At that time, the sky in Beijing was pretty blue and his sister was at her best age. Everything changed in the autumn of that year.

Old Master Zhu Weiguo stared at Qin Sheng and said amiably, “I know a lot of things happened during this period and it was difficult for you to accept all of them in a short time. Your sister called me the night before, saying that she found you. However hard I tried, I dared not believe it at that time. After all, more than two decades has passed, I thought all hope was gone. It wasn’t until I sent a car to pick her up and figured everything out that I knew everything your sister said was true. In the evening, your aunt and I stayed awake all night and kept talking about the things you did when you were a kid. I did not know how I should meet you. I could not simply look for you directly and tell you that I am your uncle. However, the way I see it, even if time flies fast, things like family and blood kin will not fade, even for a little bit. If you can’t remember what happened when you were a kid, we will help you to recollect them. If you can’t accept it now, we will wait so that you can take it slowly. This was the last wish of the Old Master. He was afraid that he could not face the Old Master after he was dead, in the future. He would bring Qin Sheng to pay his respects the Old Master, so that the Old Master could close his eyes in death.

Zhu Weiguo’s words made Qin Sheng feel somewhat dazed, somewhat excited and strangely moved. He seemed to remember the appearance of his uncle when he was young, but it was a pretty vague picture.

At this time, Qin Ran and Nangong had already came over, Qin Sheng also saw Qin Ran. It seemed that he had found a savior. Consequently, he called out quickly, “Sister.”

Qin Ran said sincerely, “Qin Sheng, what uncle said is right. We will wait for you, wait for you to reblend into our family. We have been waiting for you for more than 20 years, and we don’t mind waiting for three or five more years.”

Since his sister had already confirmed the identity of the middle-aged man in front of him, Qin Sheng did not hesitate any longer and bowed deeply to Zhu Weiguo. After that, he said respectfully, “Uncle.”

Zhu Weiguo, a man called a Confucian general in a new era by a certain leader, smiled as if he were a child and responded happily as he said, “Yes.”

The scene where Qin Sheng and Li reconciled with each other was somewhat moving, and was not as cold as the scene when Qin Sheng and Qin Chang’an had met each other for the first time, as father and son. This time round, it was more warm and affectionate.

It was too cold outside. Qin Ran took her uncle and Qin Sheng back to the villa. Qin Ran had informed Aunt Zhao that she should cook a few more dishes today.

Sitting on the sofa, Qin Ran brewed a pot of tea for her uncle. As the saying goes, an uncle loves his nephew and niece the most. It was especially true when Qin Sheng and her were children, of course, the two sons of her Small Aunt were also included. However, Qin Sheng was taken away by his grandfather later on, and her aunt stayed in the south all the time. Only she was the closest to her uncle. Consequently, her uncle loved her the most.

After drinking a cup of tea, Qin Sheng asked, “Well, is grandma healthy?”

On Qin Sheng’s way home, he began to change his mind pretty subtly. That was because he had figured some things out and had been touched by his uncle’s sentence, saying “If you can’t accept it now, we will wait for you to take it slowly.” As his sister said, they had been trying hard to find him for years. In the past few days, he had always regarded himself as a person who had suffered grievances and had been abandoned. However, it did not occur to him that these close relatives were upset and suffering too, since they had been separated from him for so many years.

Now that they had found him and took him seriously, and treated him like an ancestor. Why should they do so? On what grounds? That was because they cared about him, felt bad for him, and thought that they were indebted to him. However, he could not just accept it so easily, which was not a basic principle of being a human being. You cannot just stand still, while others kept sacrificing themselves. If others took ninety-nine steps forward, you should move one more step forward at least.

Besides, everything taking place now was an unquestionable fact. They were his blood kin relatives, who all loved him very much. It was only because of their good fortune that they had been scattered for so many years. Now, they were finally reunited and their feelings for each other had not wavered. The only thing he could do is to take the initiative to integrate with them. He believed that sooner or later all the previous feelings would be restored. After all, they were relatives.

Qin Sheng’s seemingly casual remarks made Qin Ran and Zhu Weiguo feel astounded. They were quite surprised. It did not occur to them that Qin Sheng would take the initiative to ask about these things.

Zhu Weiguo quickly said, “Your grandmother’s health is good. However, she often thinks of you. Since your grandfather did not have a chance to see you, your grandmother fears that she will end up not seeing you as well.”

Qin Sheng was inexplicably sad. He chuckled as he said, “Uncle, don’t tell my grandma that I’m back. After I settle down in Beijing, I’ll go to Shanghai to visit her personally.”

Zhu Weiguo nodded happily as he said, “Okay. I will take your advice. New Year’s Day is almost here. At that time, I will accompany your sister and you to go over to Shanghai.” Following that, he said, “But, since you are back, some things can’t be delayed any longer. In the past over two decades, your mother must have missed you more than anyone else. Your grandfather told us before his death that we must find a way to look for you and bring you to his gravesite, after we find you. ”

Zhu Weiguo did not want to mention these things. However, he could not avoid them. Consequently, after he finished speaking, the mood in the living room was a bit low. Nobody talked. They just looked at Qin Sheng. After all, Qin Sheng was the protagonist of this matter.

Qin Sheng felt a little flustered in his heart. He thought of all the words he had said to his mother in the old house that day. The only thing he could completely accept from his heart, was his mother.

Consequently, Qin Sheng gritted his teeth and said, “Uncle, after I have adjusted to my situation here, I’ll go and visit my mother and grandfather. I don’t want them to see me like this.”

Qin Ran could not help saying as she said, “Brother, you don’t have to think so much, no matter what you look like, they won’t blame you.”

Zhu Weiguo respected Qin Sheng’s decision. Consequently, he said, “Ran Ran, in that case, let’s listen to Qin Sheng and go to Shanghai only when he feels the time is ripe. However, Qin Sheng, how long do you plan to stay here and continue trying to escape from reality? ”

Qin Sheng did not hesitate this time. Instead, he responded directly and said, “Well, uncle, don’t worry. I’m not that vulnerable. When it stops snowing, I will go back right away.”

Zhu Weiguo nodded with satisfaction as he said, “Okay.”

Qin Ran added, “If you don’t want to go back to the siheyuan, you can stay with me until you are ready to go back.”

Qin Sheng did not speak. However, he seemed to accept Qin Ran’s suggestion.

At this moment, Aunt Zhao came over and announced that lunch was ready. The group moved to the dining hall. After they were seated, Zhu Weiguo asked Qin Sheng, “Can you drink?”

Qin Sheng nodded and said, “Yes, I can.”

Zhu Weiguo laughed out loudly as he said, “Then, you should accompany me to drink a little. I have been looking forward to this day for more than two decades. Ran Ran, get the wine. If there is no wine available here, I remember there are two bottles in the trunk, you can ask Xiao Gao to send them in.”

Qin Ran stood up happily to get the wine. Upon seeing this harmonious scene, she could not help sighing, and thinking that she had taken the right step...
