Whether it was the brothers Lu Cheng and Lu Chang standing in the yard, or Wang Qiufen who followed closely behind, they were all frightened by the scene before them!
In comparison, Lu Cheng was slightly better off. After all, he knew that his father-in-law had just faked his death to complete a mission.
Because I had only seen the photo before, I couldn't match the person with the photo at first, so naturally I didn't recognize him.
How would Wang Qiufen know about this? A person who had been dead for several years suddenly appeared in their house. Her first reaction was to see if there was any shadow on the ground.
When she discovered that there was indeed a shadow, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, fortunately, no matter what happened, as long as it was a living person, it was fine.
Seeing Qin An Ning almost gasping for breath from crying, and Qin Zhen's eyes also reddened, Lu Cheng hurriedly took two steps forward and gently patted Qin An Ning's shoulder, "Dad, Ning Ning, let's go inside and talk."
Hearing this, Qin Zhen slowly raised his eyes and looked at Lu Cheng. He had complicated feelings about this son-in-law, and for a moment he didn't know what attitude he should adopt towards him.
He wanted to maintain his father-in-law's authority, but he felt that he lacked the confidence.
But he felt very bad because the baby he had loved for more than ten years was kidnapped by a bad boy.
"Ningning, don't cry. I'm back. No one will dare to bully you from now on." Qin Zhen felt a pang of pain in his heart seeing his daughter crying like this.
Those people in the Qin family really deserve to die!
He was angry with them and with himself.
Qin An Ning had been holding back what was on her mind for too long. To Qin Zhen, it was only a few years, but to her, it was two lifetimes. For a moment, she really couldn't control her emotions.
Lu Cheng said to Wang Qiufen, who was at a loss, "Mom, Ningning hasn't seen Dad in a long time and is a little excited. Let them talk first."
"Oh, okay, okay, then let's talk inside, don't get cold."
Wang Qiufen really felt sorry for Qin An Ning, and was a little intimidated by the imposing Qin Zhen, so she spoke a little unsettlingly.
"You go back to the house first, I'll take them to our house."
Lu Cheng brought them to their room, made a cup of tea for Qin Zhen, and respectfully handed it to Qin Zhen, "Dad, have some water."
Then he made the fire burn brighter, picked up the kettle on top to test the temperature, poured the warm water into the enamel basin, and washed a hot towel to wipe Qin An Ning's face.
And asked gently, "Do you want to wash your face?"
Qin Anning shook her head. She had a lot of questions she wanted to ask Qin Zhen, but she also felt that having the person return safely was better than anything else. At least she still had a father.
After crying for a while, Qin An Ning now felt exhausted and lazy, not wanting to move at all.
Seeing that Qin Anning didn't want to move, Lu Cheng stopped trying to persuade her. He wiped her face and put the water cup down beside her. "You have a good chat with Dad. I'm going out first."
After saying that, he said something to Qin Zhen before walking out.
Qin Zhen just watched Lu Cheng take care of Qin An Ning meticulously, without any sign of reluctance. And judging from his proficiency, it was obvious that he did it often and was not just pretending in front of him.
Looking at Lu Cheng, he is 1.85 meters tall, handsome, and now a college student. Apart from his poor family conditions, there seems to be nothing to complain about him.
The most important thing is to be kind to Ningning!
He himself came from a poor family and didn't care about family background at all, so it seemed that this marriage was not bad.
Lu Cheng didn't know that before he did anything, his father-in-law had already conquered himself.
"Ningning, Dad has let you down these years." Qin Zhen's voice was a little choked. No matter how many reasons he had, his precious daughter did suffer, and it was his fault.
Qin Anning's eyes were sore again. When she looked at the scar on Qin Zhen's right eye corner, she knew that he had not had an easy time in the past few years. He must have been walking on the edge of life and death. The resentment in her heart suddenly dissipated.
What could be more important than having your loved ones alive and by your side?
What's more, Dad was going on a mission, which was his responsibility and mission as a soldier.
Qin Anning trembled as she touched the scar at the corner of Qin Zhen's eye with her fingertips, almost hurting her eye. "Dad, it must have been very dangerous at that time, right?"
"It's okay, I'm back safe and sound, right?"
Qin Zhen was reluctant to talk about the dangers he had experienced, but instead took the initiative to talk about what happened back then.
If this matter is not discussed, it will always be a knot in the hearts of the father and daughter.
"Ningning, I was indeed seriously injured back then. After dealing with those bastards, my mind relaxed, and coupled with the blow of losing your mother, my body couldn't take it.
He was in critical condition several times, and although he was rescued, he was still not out of danger. At that time, I actually wanted to go with your mother."
Thinking of his beloved wife, tears welled up in Qin Zhen's eyes.
He wiped his face and continued, "It was your Uncle Zhou who scolded me and woke me up. He said who can we rely on in the current situation of the Cheng family?
If even I give up and can't hold on, what hope is there for the Cheng family?
If I go like this, will I be worthy of your mother?
I know he is right. I can't ignore you, your grandparents, and uncle.
So I made it through.
But at that time I was just a small regiment commander. Although I made meritorious service in that mission and could be promoted to deputy division commander in a year or two, it was still not enough to overturn the verdict for your grandmother's family.
Once you reach the position of deputy division commander, you will basically not be required to go on missions personally, so it is very difficult to be promoted again in a short period of time.
So I chose to be blown to death and accepted a very difficult task.
I don't regret making this decision, but I regret not making arrangements for you in advance, causing you so much suffering."
The most important thing is that he didn't expect the Qin family to be so cruel.
At that time, everything happened at once. He was seriously injured and unable to move. He thought that the Qin family was just a little greedy, but Ningning had money, and coupled with Ningning's temper, she would not let him live too badly.
Who would have thought that the Qin family would actually drug Ningning and drive her crazy!
Thinking of this, Qin Zhen clenched his fists, veins popped on his forehead, and he wished he could dig Qin Yong out and whip his corpse.
Qin Anning, in turn, comforted Qin Zhen, "Dad, it's all in the past. I'm fine now, aren't I?
Instead, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as she married such a considerate man like Lu Cheng.
I am very happy now, let’s not dwell on the past anymore.”
How could he not be troubled? His beloved daughter, whom he held in his palm, had suffered for two whole years, and he knew nothing about it.
The people of Qin hated Qin Yong, but they hated themselves even more.
"Dad, you were injured so badly back then, how long did it take you to recover?"
Qin Anning didn't want Qin Zhen to be trapped in guilt, so she changed the subject.
Qin Zhen didn't want to talk about it, so he perfunctorily said, "It's all in the past, let's not talk about it!"
Qin An Ning stared at him with a pair of dark eyes, as if he would not stop until he spoke.
