Qin Anning pulled Qin Zhen to sit down and said soothingly, "Dad, don't worry, just listen to me.
This matter sounds outrageous and a bit weird. I would never tell it to you if it weren't for you.
But no matter what I say later, don't be angry or anxious. Putting aside the fact that this matter has already passed, let's just treat it as a dream, given how bizarre it is, okay?"
Seeing Qin Zhen who was already very angry because of her words, Qin An Ning was really afraid that her father would not be able to accept what she said and would get hurt.
Qin Zhen could see that his daughter was trying to comfort him. To prevent Qin An Ning from hiding anything out of concern for him, he suppressed the shock in his heart and said calmly, "Okay, go ahead."
Qin Anning carefully observed Qin Zhen's expression, and when he saw that he had truly calmed down, he continued, "It happened in early August of 1970. We had an argument because Huang Guifen secretly signed me up to go to the countryside to replace Qin Ruyue.
Huang Guifen pushed me down and hit my head on the corner of the table.
I don’t know if I died at that time and went to another world. Anyway, when I woke up from the coma, I had an extra life’s memory in my mind.
In those memories, I lived several decades later, when the country was developing rapidly in all aspects and had become a prosperous and strong country.
In fact, her memories of modern times are not very good. In that life, her parents were both engaged in scientific research. It’s not that they didn’t love her, but they loved their careers more.
Sometimes when a project gets busy, it’s common not to see each other for half a year.
As far as she could remember, the person who accompanied her the most was the nanny at home. That nanny was a distant relative of her father's family in that life, and she called her Aunt Qing.
Aunt Qing is also a miserable person. She has been married to her husband for three years but has no children. After a check-up, she found out that she was born with a uterine defect and was unable to have children.
Her husband is a very traditional man who believes that continuing the family line is important, so even though they still have feelings for each other, they have to divorce.
A few years later, Aunt Qing got over her grief and married a divorced man. The man had a son with his ex-wife, so there was no need to continue the family line. She thought she could live a peaceful life until old age, but fate played a joke on her again.
My second husband cheated on me.
After two unhappy marriages, Aunt Qing no longer had any illusions about marriage. She came to her house to be a nanny and took care of her wholeheartedly.
So in that short life, most of the love she received actually came from Aunt Qing.
But she didn't plan to tell Qin Zhen all this, as it would only make him feel worse.
"I grew up in an educated family there. Both my parents were engaged in scientific research, and at that time, research results could be patented.
You can make money if you hold a patent, and others have to pay royalties if they want to use this patent, so my family is financially well-off.
They all love me very much and I am very happy.
Going to college there was a normal study experience. I majored in pharmaceuticals, and the technology had improved a lot at that time, so the knowledge I learned was relatively advanced.
I don’t know how it happened, but I suddenly came back here when I was 23.
The moment I woke up was when Huang Guifen pushed me and I fell.
I don't know if you understand what I'm saying, but as for those extra memories in my mind, I think it was the push from Huang Guifen that caused me to fall to my death, and then I was reincarnated decades later.
I lived in the afterlife for 23 years, learned a few things, and returned here.”
Qin Anning smiled and said in a relaxed tone, "But I think it's pretty good. At least I learned a lot of things that others don't know."
Qin Zhen clenched his fists until they creaked, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I believe it, Ningning, please give me some time."
He turned his back to prevent Qin An Ning from seeing his pain, anger and regret.
How could the situation in that world be as good as Ningning described?
He knew what it was like to do scientific research. Ningning probably rarely saw her parents since she was a child and grew up alone, right?
Thinking about how she had to come back here and face the vicious Qin Yong and others, how she had to go to the countryside, how her grandmother's family had been sent down, and how he had died, and how she had come to this point alone and without anyone to rely on, Qin Zhen's heart felt like a knife was stabbed in it, and it was twisting and turning.
Seeing Qin Zhen's trembling back, Qin An Ning comforted him distressedly, "Dad, that's all in the past. Maybe I misunderstood it. Maybe it was just a dream?
No matter what, we are all fine now, and that is better than anything else."
Qin Zhen knew in his heart that what Qin An Ning said was true. Although science could not explain it, he believed it!
It is because I believed in him that I am so sad. He failed to protect his wife and his daughter.
Without his knowledge, his daughter had already died once.
What if Ningning doesn’t come back?
He couldn't even imagine whether he would regret killing himself after returning from the mission and facing this result.
Qin Zhen took a few deep breaths and exhaled slowly, trying to calm himself down.
His throat was dry and his voice was slightly hoarse. "Ningning, have you told anyone else about this?"
"Only you and Lu Cheng know this. I haven't told anyone else."
"Ningning, people's hearts are hidden. How can you tell Lu Cheng such an important matter? What if he does something bad to you?" Qin Zhen frowned and said anxiously.
He is well aware of the complexity of human nature. No matter how good things are now, it does not mean that they will not change their hearts in the future. If the temptation of benefits is great enough, who can guarantee that Lu Cheng will not betray Ningning?
In just a short moment, countless thoughts flashed through Qin Zhen's mind. He even thought about whether to kill Lu Cheng to prevent future troubles.
For him, it was too easy to kill someone silently, but he was worried that doing so would make Ningning sad, so he hesitated for a moment.
"Dad, I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, Lu Cheng won't do that."
They have a common secret, and betraying her is equivalent to betraying himself. Even if their relationship deteriorates one day, Lu Cheng will not be stupid enough to do so.
Although she knew that her dry words were not convincing, she was able to tell Qin Zhen about her reincarnation because Qin Zhen was her father and would always protect her.
But she couldn't tell Qin Zhen about Lu Cheng and the space without Lu Cheng's permission.
So I said coquettishly, "Now I have you to protect me, I am not afraid of anything."
Faced with his daughter who was trying to drug him, Qin Zhen could only smile helplessly, "It's too late today, you should get some rest first. We can talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."
He also needs some time to digest this matter.
