Humans are sometimes really strange creatures.
At first glance, Wang Shujun thought Qin Sheng looked exactly like Gu Yueming, but now that she knew that she was actually her own granddaughter, she suddenly felt that this child looked exactly like A Zheng when he was a child!
The more she looked at Qin Sheng, the more she liked her, and the more familiar she felt with her. Finally, she simply reached out and pulled Qin Sheng in front of her, smiling as she said, "Qin Sheng, right? Then Grandma will call you Sheng Sheng, okay?"
Qin Sheng looked down at Wang Shujun's hand, which was holding hers.
Her skin was very fair, without the roughness and wrinkles that one would expect from an elderly person of her age, and it had a slightly warm feel to it.
Qin Sheng was momentarily stunned.
After a moment, he pursed his lips and said, "Okay."
Wang Shujun smiled and said, "Good child, what a good child!"
As she spoke, she took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and slipped it onto Qin Sheng's wrist: "It's our first time meeting, and Grandma wasn't prepared. Consider this bracelet a small gift. In a couple of days, when we hold a formal homecoming banquet for you, Grandma will prepare a bigger gift for you."
Qin Sheng paused, wanting to say that she had no plans to return to the Qin family for the time being, but when she met the old man's gentle and loving eyes, her throat tightened and she remained silent.
However, even though she didn't say anything, some people couldn't help but speak up.
Hu Mengling stared wide-eyed at the jade bracelet, its vibrant green color almost dripping with water. She exclaimed, "Mom! This is a glass-type, bright green jade bracelet that my second brother specially commissioned someone to buy from the Kachin people in Myanmar. It's worth nearly ten million yuan! How can you just give it away like that?!"
Even if you're going to give her away, you should give her to my Yan Yan, her own granddaughter whom you watched grow up!
She didn't dare say anything more because the old lady glared at her angrily.
"You said it yourself, it was a gift from the second son, so what's wrong with me giving it to Sheng Sheng? So what if it's something worth nearly ten million? My daughter from the Qin family, can't she wear a bracelet worth a few million?"
So, being so self-righteous is actually kind of cute?
Even Qin Sheng couldn't help but glance at the old lady again.
Wang Shujun happened to see this and laughed even harder, unable to resist touching Qin Sheng's face: "How can this child be so good-looking?"
The key point is that this beautiful girl is actually her granddaughter!
When she returns to Tiandu next time, she will definitely let those old guys see her little Shengsheng. They always praise that Fu family boy to the skies, saying he's the best in the world. How rare he is!
Anyone with eyes could see the obvious joy and satisfaction on Wang Shujun's face, and Hu Mengling was simply overjoyed!
She knew her mother-in-law wasn't very reliable, but she never expected her to be this unreliable. How could someone her age act like a young person obsessed with good looks?!
So what if I'm good-looking? Does being good-looking make me superior?
Just like her mother, a vixen!
Hu Mengling and Qin Yanshu were filled with anger and frustration, while Qin Zheng and Gu Yueming, on the other side, breathed a sigh of relief as they saw Qin Sheng's expression soften considerably.
Thankfully, Mom is here.
At this moment, Gu Yueming felt somewhat grateful to Hu Mengling for bringing Wang Shujun over.
Thinking this, her expression improved considerably, and she smiled at Wang Shujun, saying, "Mom, today is a good day. Why don't you have dinner here? I'll cook it myself."
Qin Sheng saw the old man's face, which had just been kind and gentle, freeze at a visible speed. His lips moved, but he didn't speak.
Qin Sheng paused, understanding dawning on her.
She glanced at Gu Yueming and said, "I have something to do, I'll be leaving in a bit."
“Besides,” she raised an eyebrow slightly, “wasn’t it said that I had to stay away from my family until I was eighteen?”
Now it was Qin Zheng and Gu Yueming's turn to freeze at the same time.
The two looked at each other, speechless.
Qin Sheng watched, a subtle smile flashing in her eyes.
In a flash, Qin Zheng came to his senses and quickly said, "Originally, you were supposed to wait until you turned eighteen before you could come home, but Master Guang wrote to me a while ago, saying that you have survived your death calamity and that you only need to wear the jade he blessed for you to ensure your safety and well-being."
This was not something Qin Zheng made up on the spot.
To prove his point, he went upstairs again, and when he came down, he had a small wooden box in his hand.
Qin Sheng took the box from Qin Zheng, opened it, and when she saw what was inside, her pupils dilated and her fingers tightened sharply.
Inside the box was a jade-like blue lotus flower.
It was a tiny flower, not even as big as Qin Sheng's palm, but just by looking at its texture and color, one could tell that its value was immeasurable.
How could it be immeasurable or indescribable?
Qin Sheng chuckled softly.
This lotus flower has been by her side since the beginning of her consciousness. It is the only one of its kind in the world and is known to the world as the Chaos Lotus.
It was given to her by the "father" she had never met, who had created her.
She thought she would never see it again in her life, but unexpectedly, it returned to her in this way.
Qin Sheng slowly picked up Qinglian, her clear, cold voice tinged with hoarseness: "Where is he?"
Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment before he realized that she was asking about Liao Guang, but he didn't know this: "Master Liao Guang is always elusive. Not to mention me, even the people of Jue'an Temple don't know where he is."
Qin Sheng didn't say anything more, but simply closed the box again and put it away.
*
Qin Sheng agreed to return to the Qin family, but not now.
She still had some things to finish.
"Sheng Sheng, are you really not staying for dinner? Mom's cooking is absolutely amazing, you can ask your dad if you don't believe me!"
