"We've been brothers for so long, I never thought I was so unimportant to you."
After a pause, Qin Ao suddenly had an idea and asked seriously:
"Tell me, if Xiaoqi and I fell into the river, and Xiaoqi can swim but I can't, who are you going to save?"
“…”
Upon hearing this, Song Rushuang fell silent for a while.
Lin Qianyi was not much better off.
Song Rushuang made a gesture of invitation to Lin Qianyi.
To be honest, Song Rushuang was inexplicably curious about the answer to this question.
So if Lin Qianyi was going to answer this question, Song Rushuang felt that she could listen to it.
Lin Qianyi frowned slightly. If Song Rushuang hadn't been present, he probably wouldn't have answered this meaningless topic.
But since Song Rushuang wanted to know, he had to answer.
Qin Ao himself didn't expect that Lin Qianyi would actually want to answer the question he asked casually.
No wonder Qin Ao was surprised.
After all, Lin Qianyi had always kept his distance from his unreasonable questions.
"Xiao Qi."
Qin Ao: "..."
He was only slightly depressed for a short while, but soon returned to normal.
Lin Qianyi has been thinking about the person for more than ten years, so of course he has to save him when he is in danger.
Song Rushuang actually had some thoughts of comforting him.
Although Lin Qianyi's answer was also out of Song Rushuang's curiosity, she herself did not expect that Lin Qianyi's answer could be so blunt and straightforward.
No excuses at all.
Qin Ao was obviously stunned for a moment.
Everyone has intentions, and it is obvious at first glance that Qin Ao values Lin Qianyi very much.
It would be strange if I wasn't sad to hear such words.
Originally, this topic was raised because Song Rushuang was curious, so Lin Qianyi specifically answered it.
It seems that she also has an inescapable responsibility.
However, facts proved that Song Rushuang was obviously overthinking it.
Qin Ao's emotions come and go quickly.
He was clearly feeling sad just now, but in the blink of an eye, he had regained his composure.
This makes Song Rushuang's idea seem a bit redundant.
Lin Qianyi was also beside Song Rushuang at that time and whispered:
"Don't worry about him. He always thinks a lot, but he just talks a lot and doesn't pay attention."
If you don't pay attention, you won't be sad.
Qin Ao also immediately spoke:
"Yes, Xiaoqi, you are in a special period now. Xiaoyi should save you. If he doesn't save you, I won't let him go!"
"Really? Then come down the mountain with me tomorrow. After you've dealt with Xiao Qi's affairs, follow me to the boxing gym."
“…That’s not necessary.”
Song Rushuang's confused gaze shifted from Qin Ao to Lin Qianyi.
She asked in surprise:
"My business? My what business?"
Song Rushuang was a little surprised that she, the person involved, knew nothing about the matter.
Lin Qianyi paused, then slowly said:
"Well, there is something I want to mention. Now that I'm back in Kyoto, I should go to the Shen family.
Lin Qianyi never expected that Song Rushuang would hold the opposite opinion on this matter.
Song Rushuang didn't know what she was thinking about, and her expression suddenly became cold.
"No, I don't really want to go to the Shen family."
Lin Qianyi really didn't expect that Song Rushuang would refuse.
"Xiao Qi, don't you want to see Aunt Duan?"
Song Rushuang turned around and looked at Lin Qianyi, her eyes filled with an unspeakable emotion.
After a while, Song Rushuang sighed softly, and then slowly said:
"It's probably no use if I just think about it alone."
Lin Qianyi raised his eyebrows in surprise, and he quickly said to her:
"Why do you think so? Aunt Duan must miss you very much."
Song Rushuang looked at Lin Qianyi with some confusion.
She suddenly asked:
"Have you seen my mother in recent years?"
Lin Qianyi blinked his eyes. He couldn't lie about this matter, so he told the truth:
"Aunt Duan's health hasn't been very good in recent years, so I rarely see her."
Song Rushuang nodded suddenly, then slowly said:
"Well, I know there's a truth that you should understand. After a period of time like this, people will change."
So, during the first few years after she left, her mother might have missed her and hoped that she would come back to her one day.
But twelve years was really too long. She wanted to find some comfort for herself, and the most important thing was to try to forget her.
Lin Qianyi was indeed smart. He knew what must have happened just from hearing these few words.
Otherwise, Song Rushuang's attitude towards this matter before and after would not be so contrasting.
"Xiao Qi, have you been to the Shen family yet?"
When talking about the Shen family, Song Rushuang's expression became a little indifferent.
It’s no wonder that Lin Qianyi would have such speculation.
Song Rushuang thought about it and realized that she hadn't even entered the Shen family's mountain gate, so she probably couldn't be considered to have been to the Shen family.
So, Song Rushuang slowly shook her head.
This made Lin Qianyi fall into deep thought.
If Song Rushuang had never been to the Shen family, then what made her have such an idea?
He subconsciously turned his gaze to Qin Ao.
He was so scared that he shook his head quickly.
"Don't look at me. I've been with you since I came back. How could I have the time to run up to Xiao Qi and say something?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly turned his gaze to Song Rushuang for help.
"Xiao Qi, please speak up for me!"
You must not remain silent at this time.
Song Rushuang shook her head helplessly, and then she began to explain:
"It's not that he said anything to me, but I just felt it. If you are so enthusiastic and want me to go to the Shen family to reunite with my relatives, I will accept your kindness. However, let's not talk about going to the Shen family for now."
Lin Qian hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to respect Song Rushuang's decision.
As for what happened while he was away, he felt that Song Rushuang didn't seem to want to mention it.
So, he didn't ask any more questions.
However, Song Rushuang's attitude still succeeded in making Lin Qianyi take this matter to heart.
After lunch, Song Rushuang went to rest.
Lin Qianyi also found a suitable time and prepared to look for Song Laowu and Bai Lingzhi.
These two are Song Rushuang's relatives.
I think they should know best what happened to Song Rushuang.
However, Lin Qianyi probably didn't expect it.
Song Laowu, who had been very friendly to him before, saw him from a distance and left quickly without waiting for him to come closer.
It is absolutely fine to say that Lin Qianyi himself is someone to be avoided like a monster.
Lin Qianyi stood where he was and did not chase after him immediately.
