Qin Sheng went to get a cup of milk tea, but when she came back, she found that her younger brother, who had been sitting on the sofa, was gone.
Turning to Gu Yueming, he asked, "Where's Qin Zhao?"
Gu Yueming was even more confused than her: "Where's Zhao'er?"
Qin Sheng: "..."
Just then, Qin Zheng returned from the company and, upon hearing this, pressed his temples and said, "He went next door."
The two of them looked at him at the same time: "Over there, Grandma (Mom)?"
Qin Zheng nodded: "Yes, they said they'd go sit for a while."
Gu Yueming was even more confused: "Didn't you just get back? Why did you go back again?"
Qin Sheng immediately realized something, and while finding it somewhat amusing, a thought also stirred within him. He said, "Go explain it to me."
Um?
Qin Zheng paused, his hand still halfway off his coat, and looked at his daughter: "What happened?"
Qin Sheng didn't intend to hide anything from her parents, and since Wei Zhenyun would be sending people over soon to remove the surveillance cameras, she couldn't keep it a secret any longer. So she gave a brief account of what had happened yesterday.
Upon hearing that the people from that side had come and injured Li Sao and Qin Zhao, the two women's expressions changed drastically. Before Qin Sheng could finish speaking, they rushed to her side and grabbed her, scrutinizing her closely.
I didn't see any injury, but I'm still worried.
Gu Yueming simply grabbed her and took her to the room next door. She closed the door and started tearing off her clothes, leaving Qin Sheng completely bewildered. She quickly broke free and left.
"I'm not injured," Qin Sheng explained expressionlessly.
Gu Yueming didn't believe it. She firmly believed that her daughter was just pretending to be strong so as not to worry them. Seeing that her daughter refused to cooperate with the examination, she had no choice but to take out her phone and call the family doctor, asking him to come over immediately.
The family doctor was so anxious that he almost thought someone in their family was about to die. He didn't even bother to watch the show he was halfway through; he grabbed his equipment and rushed out.
Qin Sheng, whose face was rosy and healthy, was speechless.
But it's fine, I guess.
Although Qin Zhao's injuries were not serious, it would be good to have a doctor take a look.
Qin Sheng fell silent.
Gu Yueming felt a little relieved and calmed down, then realized something was amiss: "What does this have to do with Qin Yanshu?"
Qin Sheng's expression softened considerably: "She let them in."
Anger surged in Qin Zheng's and Gu Yueming's eyes instantly. Qin Zheng couldn't help but slap the back of the sofa and said coldly, "Well done, Qin Yanshu!"
The previous incidents could still be considered minor squabbles, and could be easily dismissed as children being spoiled and ignorant. But last time, he attempted suicide with a knife and tried to harm Sheng Sheng. This time, he directly let people with clearly ill intentions into the Qin family manor and even let them into their home. This is truly despicable!
Qin Zheng didn't speak again, but his expression was somber, clearly indicating that he didn't intend to let the matter go easily.
Qin Sheng originally wanted to say that she had taught someone a lesson, but after thinking about it, she decided not to say it.
Who cares?
Qin Yanshu is irrelevant; what's more important is...
“Dad, I’ve met with the person in charge there and made a deal with them. They agreed to remove the surveillance on our house. Also, if my brothers don’t want to continue with their work, they can go and discuss it with them and ask the person in charge there to report it to their superiors.”
Qin Zheng and Gu Yueming, who had just come to their senses, were both bewildered: "???"
Before the two could ask any questions, Qin Sheng calmly continued to explain, "I just cultivated a medicinal herb that they desperately needed, and they agreed to my conditions."
"It's...it's that simple?"
No, that's not it.
Qin Sheng thought for a moment and said, "I also took their money and promised to do a few projects for them."
Qin Sheng felt a headache coming on when she thought about the more than twenty documents she had received since waking up today, each containing thousands of pages of information.
Not wanting to chat with his parents any longer, he turned and went upstairs: "I'm going to work."
Qin Zheng and his wife, who had no time to say or ask anything, were speechless.
They couldn't help but exchange bewildered glances, and Qin Zheng even pinched the bridge of his nose: "We've fallen for this girl's trick."
Gu Yueming: "Wh...what?"
Qin Zheng picked up a stack of documents from the sofa armrest and handed them to Gu Yueming: "What happened at the company during the three days we were out for medical check-ups. I was wondering about it at first, but now I understand. It was all Sheng Sheng's doing."
"Jin Quan and his gang caused the Qin family to be ruined by her."
Gu Yueming scanned the documents quickly, and when she finished reading the thick stack of documents in her hand, she didn't know how to describe her feelings.
She left for three days because she was angry with her, and those people outside dared to bully her Sheng Sheng like this.
She was also annoyed that she hadn't noticed anything amiss at all, and had stayed at that base for three days without a care in the world, while her daughter had suffered so much injustice.
She felt even more sorry for her daughter, who was so sensible. To avoid making them worry and sad, she arranged a physical examination and sent them away, bearing all the pain herself.
Qin Zheng felt similarly, but he thought about things a little deeper.
So, how did his daughter manage to win over people with just one trip, something that he and the three Mu brothers hadn't been able to do for over ten years?
Don't even mention the medicinal herb project; that's just something you can fool her mother with.
Qin Zheng decided that once he had cleaned up the mess at the company, he would personally go there to see what was going on.
That's a story for another time.
After Qin Sheng went upstairs, it took her more than two hours to finish reading the first document. She found that she was not very familiar with the knowledge points in this area, so she decided to find some materials to study first. Then the phone rang.
It was a WeChat voice request. Qin Sheng looked at the caller ID, a look of doubt flashing across her eyes.
He reached out and pressed the answer button: "Aunt?"
Qin Wei didn't speak for a while. She tentatively said, "Sheng Sheng, it's like this. Zhenzhen is your cousin, the one you just met. But things happened so suddenly that I didn't have time to introduce you two."
Qin Sheng hummed in agreement, signaling her to continue.
Qin Wei hesitated for a moment on the other end of the phone, but after glancing at her daughter not far away, she continued, "Zhenzhen has been abroad for three years and just returned to China a few days ago. She heard that I was at the Qin family home, so she came to see me. And it just so happens that tomorrow is her 21st birthday, so I thought I would throw her a birthday party to welcome her back."
"Do you have some time? Would you like to come over and have some fun?"
Qin Sheng didn't want to go, so she made up a reason to refuse: "I have a date with my boyfriend tomorrow, I don't have time."
Qin Wei: "Boy...boyfriend?"
Qin Sheng nodded calmly: "Yes, we just started dating, and the relationship isn't stable yet, so don't tell anyone else."
Qin Wei: "Oh, oh, oh."
Qin Sheng said "Happy Birthday to my cousin" and then hung up the phone.
Qin Wei didn't come to her senses until her phone screen went black for a long time. Only then did she realize that Xie Zhen had heard the speakerphone she had just turned on.
She immediately tensed up: "Zhenzhen, Mom promised Shengsheng, you mustn't tell anyone about this, you absolutely can't tell your second uncle and aunt."
Xie Zhen struggled to control her emotions and smiled, saying, "I understand."
