Chapter 44 Novel Metaphors



"Dad, you wanted to see me?"

"Yes, Qiuyang."

"Dad, what's wrong?"

"How long has it been since you went home?"

"It hasn't been that long, only about half a month."

"Don't you miss your younger brother and sister?"

"Of course I want to, but I have nowhere to stay when I go home. I even talked to Qiushou and Chanming on the phone yesterday."

"Come home for dinner tonight, I have something to tell you."

"What is it that you can't say over the phone?"

Qiu Jingwen listened with displeasure and even resentment.

"Qiuyang, is it really that unimportant for a family to have a meal together? Your sister Qiuyue is working the day shift today and will be home tonight. You come home now so we can have a family reunion dinner. Also, I have something important to tell you."

Qiu Yang hadn't expected his father to speak loudly and in a complaining tone.

He held the microphone for a moment, then agreed.

"Dad, I know, I'll come home after work. You don't need to be angry, do you?"

At this point, Qiu Yang suddenly looked at Su Xiaowei's beautiful back in the distance and continued:

"Dad, I need to talk to you about something."

"Speak, what is it?"

"Dad, can I bring someone home for a free meal?"

Yes, that's right, Qiu Yang used the term "mooching a meal".

Qiu Jingwen certainly knew what it meant to freeload a meal, but he didn't respond.

After thinking for about ten seconds, he finally spoke.

"Qiuyang, who are you bringing?"

"Dad, this is my girlfriend."

Qiu Jingwen frowned.

He asked with slight surprise:

"Your girlfriend? Who's your girlfriend?"

Qiu Yang chuckled.

"Dad, it's Su Xiaowei who just answered your call."

Qiu Jingwen held the microphone for a long time without responding.

Qiu Yang, probably getting impatient, urged:

"Dad, could you introduce me to our family?"

Qiu Jingwen didn't ask anything else, but expressed his opinion firmly.

"Qiuyang, no, at least not today. I told you, I have something to tell you, something very important."

After saying that, Qiu Jingwen hung up the phone immediately.

He knew that if he didn't hang up, his son would definitely press him for an explanation as to why he couldn't do it.

Qiu Jingwen briefly considered it; his son was already working, so it was naturally a good thing that he had a girlfriend.

Moreover, he had met Su Xiaowei before. She was beautiful and charming, and her voice on the phone just now was so clear and pure. Just from her voice, he could tell that she was a very nice girl.

But what is the current situation and circumstances?

As a spy who has been hiding for many years, I am likely to be exposed by the public security investigation team soon.

Once exposed, not only will the director lose his job, but he will face life imprisonment or even the death penalty.

This outcome will inevitably affect my son's job; that's just one aspect.

On the other hand, if the police also quickly solve the case and arrest and sentence his wife, it will also affect Qiu Yang's work.

Whether it's his own identity as a secret agent or the exposure of his wife Jiang Yuping's murder, it will affect the jobs of his son Qiuyang and daughter Qiuyue.

At that time, as the son of a secret agent or a murderer, will Su Xiaowei still like Qiu Yang?

Even if Su Xiaowei still loves Qiu Yang and remains devoted to him, it wouldn't be fair to her, and her parents wouldn't agree or give their blessings.

Over the years, Qiu Jingwen has developed the habit of always considering others, and he truly does.

He had a feeling that a storm was brewing, or rather, it wasn't just a feeling, but a sense of recognition and certainty.

If his wife hadn't killed Liu Han, things might not have turned out so badly.

The wife has now committed murder, and the police are doing their best to solve the case; anything is possible.

Qiu Yang had no idea what his father, Qiu Jingwen, was thinking. After hanging up the phone, he glanced at Su Xiaowei with a hint of dejection.

Su Xiaowei was also looking at him at that moment.

In fact, when Qiu Yang answered the phone and talked to his father, Su Xiaowei, who was standing not far away, heard it all. Her heart was pounding when she heard it.

Her boyfriend was going to formally take her to meet his parents. As a 21-year-old woman, and as someone who was dating Qiu Yang for the first time in her life, Su Xiaowei was naturally nervous. She just didn't know what the outcome would be.

So, after Qiu Yang hung up the phone, Ma Xiaowei gave him a gentle smile.

Qiu Yang walked up to Su Xiaowei and asked:

"Xiaowei, did you hear the whole conversation between me and my dad?"

Su Xiaowei's bright eyes blinked, and she shyly clasped her hands together.

"Yes, I heard you. You're going to introduce me to your parents, right?"

Su Xiaowei's voice was pure and pleasant, but a blush rose on her fair face.

Qiu Yang shook his head helplessly.

"Xiaowei, I'm sorry, my dad didn't agree. He said he'd take you to our house another day. Today he asked me to go home, saying he has something important to tell me."

To avoid upsetting Su Xiaowei, Qiu Yang added the suggestion that he would bring her home another day.

Su Xiaowei didn't seem to care, but instead smiled gently.

"Qiuyang, it's nothing, let's do it another day."

As she spoke, she looked at her boyfriend and suddenly asked:

"Hey, Qiuyang, tell me, do you think your parents will object to our relationship because of my dad's situation?"

Qiu Yang immediately denied it after hearing it:
