Chapter 465 You liar!
"Did you look alike when you were little?" Qiao Xing asked.
The old man handed the photo album back to her and nodded. "Yes, it's been a long time since I've looked at these photos. Seeing them suddenly brought back memories."
“These little guys look exactly the same.”
Qiao Xing glanced at the photo subconsciously, and when she looked at it again, she wasn't so embarrassed anymore.
The old man joked again, "I wonder if your future child will look just like him."
Qiao Xing seemed to understand a little better now why Grandpa Qin always hoped she would have a child.
Before she could speak, the old man said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to see it."
Qiao Xing was stunned for a moment, her heart tightened slightly, and she blurted out subconsciously, "I can see it, I'll see it soon."
The old man was also taken aback. He looked at Qiao Xing with a puzzled expression. "There's no need to force it. You are still young. I understand if you don't want to have children."
Qiao Xing shook her head. She looked back to make sure no one was there before whispering, "No, Grandpa, it's already done."
The old man was stunned again, staring at her in astonishment. "You're pregnant? Don't lie to me just to make Grandpa happy."
"I'm not lying to you, I really am pregnant." Qiao Xing opened her phone's photo album and flipped through it. She had even taken pictures of her previous pregnancy test results. She found the picture and handed it to the old man.
The old man took the phone with a slight excitement, looking at the photo over and over again, his expression becoming increasingly agitated.
After watching for a full two minutes, the old man finally spoke, "Good, good, good, this old man has finally waited for this."
His joyful expression made him seem much more energetic.
Qiao Xing said, "So Grandpa, you need to get better soon. You'll have to help us take care of the baby after it's born."
The old man chuckled happily, "I'll listen to you, Grandpa will definitely get better. I'm still waiting to see my great-grandson."
Qiao Xing smiled and continued flipping through the photo album. The more she looked at the photos of the children, the cuter they became, especially the later ones. As they grew older, even the photos of them at two or three years old showed that they were quite handsome little boys.
She's so young, yet she's already so cool. Wearing denim overalls, her little hands are in her pockets, and she looks at the camera with a farewell expression as she approaches me.
Qiao Xing couldn't help but chuckle. She asked the old man, "Grandpa, did Qin Ce have no friends to play with when he was little?"
The old man said irritably, "Others want to play with him, but he won't play with them."
Why?
He said those kids were too childish and he didn't want to play with them.
Qiao Xing clicked her tongue in amazement, "Haven't you been like this since you were little?"
"He's been like this since he was little. He may seem annoying, but as his grandfather, I know he's actually very lonely. He just can't find like-minded friends."
Qiao Xing nodded in agreement. Actually, she and Qin Ce weren't exactly like-minded; they just ended up together by chance.
She took a bunch of photos of the album with her phone and saved them all.
After looking at the last picture, she asked the old man, "Grandpa, can I take this photo album with me?"
"Of course you can. It was originally his property. You can take it back and give it to him. But I advise you not to give it to him, otherwise you probably won't be able to keep it."
Qiao Xing said with a grin, "It's okay, I've already saved it in my album, I can print it out anytime."
"You silly girl," the old man chuckled and shook his head, "only you would dare to do something like this."
"Alright, Grandpa's tired. You can wander around by yourself. Grandpa's going back to rest."
"Then I'll push you back."
The old man waved his hand and refused, "No need, you do your thing. It's not easy for you to come all this way, but you should also take care to rest. You're not alone now."
"Okay, Grandpa."
He nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "This matter should be kept secret for now. Don't tell anyone. This is for your own good."
Qiao Xing was somewhat surprised that even he said that, which made Qiao Xing realize the seriousness of the matter.
"Okay, I understand."
The old man didn't say anything more. He called out to Xing Jiu outside, and soon Xing Jiu came in and pushed him out.
Qiao Xing wandered around the room again, but apart from the photo album, there was nothing else of any reference value.
She took the photo album and walked out of the building, then returned the way she came, and saw Qin Ce still sitting on the chair over there.
Qiao Xing took the photo album and went over to him. She hid the album behind her back and called out to him with a grin, "Qin Ce."
Qin Ce looked up and noticed her malicious smile. His gaze fell on what was behind her. "What are you hiding?"
"nice one."
"What good stuff?"
Qiao Xing blinked. "Promise me you won't break it after you finish watching it, then I'll let you see it."
A sense of foreboding rose in Qin Ce's heart. He stared at her warily, not in a hurry to agree. "Let me see it first."
"No way. You can only see it if you promise me. Otherwise, I'll secretly hide it and see it myself."
Qin Ce's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly stood up from his chair.
Qiao Xing quickly took two steps back, looking wary. "Don't do anything rash, I'm..."
The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, but Qin Ce understood what it meant.
He stared at Qiao Xing for a moment. He wasn't the kind of person who was overly curious, but Qiao Xing's smile was too strange, especially in this kind of place. It was very likely that he had some shameful dark history.
After a moment's hesitation, Qin Ce finally gave in, "Fine, I promise you, let me see it."
Qiao Xing then took out the photo album from behind her back and handed it to him, saying, "Take a look."
When Qin Ce saw the photo album, he didn't react much; he had no recollection of it.
When he took it and turned to the first page, he was struck dumb, frozen on the spot, staring incredulously at the photo on the first page, his pupils contracting continuously.
Qiao Xing observed his expression, then leaned closer to take a look. "You were quite cute when you were little."
With a "snap," the photo album closed, and he looked at Qiao Xing with an indescribable expression. "You've seen it all?"
"Yes, I've finished reading it. You can flip through the pages later; the ones that look good are also good."
He had absolutely no interest in flipping through the album and was about to tear it up. Qiao Xing immediately grabbed his hand, "You promised me!"
Qin Ce looked up at her, pondered for a moment, and said, "Alright, I won't tear it."
Qiao Xing then released him.
To everyone's surprise, he took a few steps to the side, opened the photo album, tore the photos off, and ripped them to shreds with lightning speed before throwing them into the trash can.
Before Qiao Xing could even react, the photos were turned into a pile of waste paper and thrown into the trash can.
She stared blankly at Qin Ce for a while before she came to her senses, and a look of anger appeared on her face.
"Qin Ce! You liar!!"
Qin Ce placed the empty shell in Qiao Xing's hand and patted her head. "Don't be angry, it's not broken, is it? I'm returning it to you intact."
"But all the photos are gone!"
"What photos? There aren't any photos in the package you gave me."
