Xie Lanzhi took a deep breath and said in a voice without sadness or joy: "I had a dream. I dreamed that I was in the 963rd unit. After I was injured, I didn't wait for Ah Shu. The person I married was Qin Baozhu..."
He told Mrs. Xie everything that happened in his dream without reservation.
The only thing that was hidden was that Madam Xie was kidnapped by criminals for three days, humiliated for three days, and then left naked at the gate of the compound in a miserable state.
Mrs. Xie was speechless for a long time after hearing this, and an expression of obvious fear appeared on her well-maintained face.
What happened in my son’s dream is likely to actually happen.
Back then, the telegram sent by the Qin family did indeed ask Xie Lanzhi to marry Qin Baozhu.
But later, for some unknown reason, the Qin family changed their mind.
If Qin Shu had not married her son, Xie Lanzhi would most likely have been seriously injured and would not have been able to recover, and it would have been a luxury for her to be alive.
The year Xie Lanzhi had the accident, Xie's father's health was not good either. If Qin Shu hadn't intervened, he would have passed away long ago.
It’s just… Madam Xie frowned and looked at Xie Lanzhi: “In my dream, I left Jing City after you and your father died?”
Xie Lanzhi avoided his gaze and said calmly: "Yes——"
She had to leave because the military, political and business circles in Beijing could no longer tolerate her.
"That's impossible!" Mrs. Xie laughed and retorted, "Dreams are always the opposite. Even if the Xie family falls, I will never leave our home."
Upon hearing this, Xie Lanzhi held Madam Xie's hand and trembled violently.
If in her previous life, her mother had not suffered those persecutions and had chosen to stay in the Xie family's small building, for the rest of her life, her mother would have been immersed in longing for him every minute and every second, living like a walking corpse.
Thinking of this possibility, Xie Lanzhi not only felt tears in his eyes, but also felt a sharp pain in his heart.
Mrs. Xie noticed something was wrong with her son, suppressed her panic, and joked with a smile.
"You are so old, and you come to your mother because you had a nightmare."
"I think you've gone backwards as you get older. You weren't this spoiled when you were a kid."
Xie Lanzhi thought of his previous gaffe, and his elegant and refined face showed an unnatural expression: "I didn't, don't talk nonsense"
The truth is, Mother Xie in his previous life made him so heartbroken.
Xie Lanzhi desperately wanted to seek a sense of security to suppress the panic and anger in his heart.
Madam Xie patted Xie Lanzhi's hand and said, "Don't think too much. You and Ah Shu are the right match. Master Lingxi's master once said that you have a noble person by your side in this life. You are destined to rise to the top. Ah Shu is your noble person. The fate between you two cannot be easily severed."
Xie Lanzhi heard these gentle and soothing words and they went deep into his heart.
In his previous life, he did not marry Qin Shu.
But before that, he had seen Qin Shu twice in different aspects.
In this life, Qin Shu took the initiative to come to his side, not only helping him a lot, but even promoting the Xie family to become the number one family in China.
Xie Lanzhi nodded to Xie's mother and said softly, "A Shu doesn't belong to anyone in the dream. She is destined to be mine."
Mrs. Xie was amused and said, "You are so confident. Ah Shu is a woman with a lot of ambition. She is willing to live with you. You should treat her well."
"I understand." Xie Lanzhi nodded again.
Even if Qin Shu's feelings for her were not deep, Xie Lanzhi would not complain.
It was enough that Qin Shu took the initiative to come to him.
If you are greedy anymore, you will not know what is good for you.
You have to know that in his previous life, Yang Yunchuan had never touched Qin Shu even with a finger.
"What are you doing?!"
From upstairs, Xie's father's powerful roar was heard.
Mrs. Xie was frightened and turned back to glare at Father Xie.
"What are you yelling about! Can't you see I'm having a heart-to-heart talk with my son?"
Father Xie stared at the mother and son's clasped hands and said angrily, "Just have a heart-to-heart talk, why are you holding hands?"
Mr. Xie, who was nearly seventy years old, came downstairs very quickly, rushed to the sofa, grabbed Xie Lanzhi by the back of the collar and pulled him up.
"You are not without a wife, go find your wife!"
Father Xie sat next to Madam Xie, touching her well-maintained and delicate hands, and said with a chuckle, "This kid is so old, but he still acts like a spoiled child to you. I've never seen such a clingy child. You should spoil him less in the future."
Mrs. Xie was immediately furious and raised her hand to twist Xie's father's ear.
"You old pervert, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"No matter how old Zhizhi is, he is still my son. In my eyes, he is just a child!"
"Hiss! It hurts! Madam, please let go--" Father Xie nodded hurriedly and begged for mercy with a smile in his eyes.
Mrs. Xie did not use any force on her hands. She ignored Xie's father's pleas for mercy and looked up at her son who was standing beside her with an expressionless face.
"Zhizhi, go eat first. Your dad and I need to talk."
Xie Lanzhi nodded sensibly: "Okay, I'll wait for you in the restaurant."
He turned and left, and Xie's father's miserable cry was heard behind him.
"Madam! Calm down! I was just joking before. I'm happy that my son is here. I just wanted to tease him..."
"Shut up! I've known you for most of my life, and I still don't know what your temper is like!"
"Madam, please let go of me, my ears are about to split..."
Xie Lanzhi, who was sitting in the restaurant, heard his parents' "flirting" and his thin lips slowly curled up into a light arc.
However, the next second, the smile on his face disappeared.
Xie Lanzhi was about to call Qin Shu back, but found it was too early, so he opened the message from his son.
Xie Lanzhi frowned as he listened to the several-minute-long recording.
The recording was of the eldest brother-in-law asking angrily, "What do you know? Do you know that you lied to me in the ancestral hall? Do you know that the entrance to the underground river that the tribe has been looking for in recent years is the real chance for you to survive?"
Then, Qin Shu said helplessly: "I wasn't very sure back then, and I didn't want to make you worry."
"Does Xie Lanzhi know about this?"
"Know what?"
"You know you only have a few years left to live!"
"have no idea……"
Xie Lanzhi froze in a daze, his face turned pale in an instant, his eyes filled with confusion, shock and anger.
Qin Hairui's words kept ringing in his ears - Qin Shu only has a few years left to live!
Xie Lanzhi's remaining sanity was shattered by the bombing.
Why does Ah Shu only have a few years left to live?
What exactly happened?
Could this be a joke from my son? !
Xie Lanzhi held the phone tightly and listened to the recording again in a self-torturing manner.
This time, he heard something else.
Qin Hairui growled, "Qin Shu! You and Xie Lanzhi are husband and wife and have five children. How dare you hide such a big thing from him!"
Qin Shu said self-deprecatingly: "What's the point of telling him? He is now the most powerful person in China. His daily schedule is full. How can he have time to worry about my affairs?"
Xie Lanzhi's hand, which was holding the phone, had veins bulging on the back of his hand, and was trembling slightly due to excessive force.
With a loud crash!
Xie Lanzhi stood up suddenly, knocking the cutlery on the table to the ground.
He stepped on the debris on the ground, turned around and rushed out the door, his back hurried and slightly staggering.
Xie's mother asked from behind: "Lanzhi! Where are you going?"
