Upon returning to China, He Yuan immediately went to the capital to report for duty. Hearing that Xiao Yu was at Tsinghua University, he decided to ask her to go home with him.
When Xiaoyu saw her uncle, she was so happy she was completely overjoyed. She forgot all about her studies and martial arts practice and went home with her uncle by train.
Along the way, they kept asking him if he was used to being out there, how strong the sandstorms were in the northwest, whether he had eaten enough, and so on.
She also went on and on about what had happened in the family over the years.
He Yuan listened patiently, trying to visualize the scene Xiao Yu described in his mind.
The two chatted for a very long time on the train, even thinking of going straight home to surprise their families.
There were indeed some surprises.
They had just gotten off the train when they were informed that Chen Qing had almost died.
The two were so frightened that they rushed to the hospital.
After arriving at the hospital, the police explained the situation to He Yuan in detail.
Even though He Yuan knew that it wasn't Chen Qing who was injured, he was still anxious and wanted to see Chen Qing as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, upon returning, he heard that someone wanted to take his place.
He Yuan's eyes were deep and dark, the shadow cast by his brow bone was sharp as a knife. He gripped the doorknob, ready to rush in if Chen Qing said anything bad. He could not accept Chen Qing's infidelity.
And this guy...
He Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
I've already come up with a solution.
Xiaoyu put her hands together in prayer position.
I pray my aunt doesn't cheat on me now.
Whether Chen Qing inside heard Xiao Yu's prayer or not, he bluntly responded to A Cheng's words: "I don't like you. I hope you can respect my love life and not ruin my career or my relationship."
Acheng was stunned, then quickly said, "Many men do that! You've just made a mistake that many men would make. You're in such a high position now, so for something as small as this, as long as you deny it to the death, no one will do anything to you!"
Seeing that he was unmoved, Chen Qing laughed: "What do you like about me? My looks? Definitely not. You like the power I wield, right? It makes you feel powerful, that your beauty wasn't wasted, conquering such a powerful woman. But what do you have in my eyes? I'm even afraid that your thoughts will corrupt my children if I ask you to take care of them."
Acheng's face turned deathly pale.
Chen Qing stood up and said, "If you want to gamble on whether I have a conscience and whether I can protect you under Yang Weibin, I can. But if you want to gamble on whether I'm willing to share my glory with you, then unfortunately, you've made the wrong bet."
Ah Cheng hurriedly explained, "But I love you..."
"Many people love me, but among them, you are neither outstanding nor upright. Take good care of yourself. If there is anything I can do to help you, I will still do my best. That's all for now, I'm going home now."
Chen Qing has had many suitors over the years, but he has personally cut them off each time.
Compared to men, she wanted to fulfill her life's dreams.
Chen Qing opened the door and saw He Yuan's loving gaze. She clicked her tongue and said, "Eavesdropping."
He Yuan nodded with a smile, his eyes brimming with uncontainable joy.
She rejected him so decisively, so cool!!!
Acheng subconsciously looked at the person at the door, and his breath hitched.
He Yuan stood casually, his crisp light gray overcoat making him look handsome and tall. The fatigue from the train journey did not diminish him in the slightest, but instead added a touch of travel-worn composure.
He Yuan's temperament was the kind he was most familiar with and most hated—the kind of calm and composed demeanor that belonged to those who truly possessed the world.
He clutched the blanket tightly, his face drained of color.
Chen Qing was the most outstanding woman he had ever met. She held great power, was exceptionally talented, and was beautiful—she was practically perfect. He had longed for her for a long time, wanting to secure a place for himself by her side.
Knowing that Boss Yang was plotting against Chen Qing, he took a desperate gamble, only to become a laughing stock!
But on what basis?
Why should He Yuansheng have all of this?
Chen Qing walked out, naturally closing Acheng's hospital room door to block Acheng's view: "Let's go home and have dinner."
The three of them walked outside.
Xiao Yu glanced at her aunt, then at her uncle, and complained, "Why aren't you two getting agitated!"
The moment she saw her uncle, she was overjoyed beyond belief, wishing she could shout to the whole world, "My uncle is back!!!"
But her uncle and aunt were so calm, making her seem immature.
Chen Qing and He Yuan couldn't very well tell Xiao Yu that the two of them had met abroad and burst into tears in public, so they could only pretend to be adults.
Chen Qing: "Getting too excited in public is embarrassing."
He Yuan nodded in a perfunctory manner.
After the family of three got into the car, Chen Qing drove, He Yuan sat in the passenger seat, and Xiao Yu sat in the middle of the back seat, resting her chin on her hand and looking at them, urging, "Now that we're not in public, you can be a little excited. I don't mind if you hug."
Chen Qing: "..."
He Yuan: "..."
The two looked at each other and then embraced.
Xiaoyu said irritably, "Fine, you guys are so annoying!"
The two stopped hugging and Chen Qing started the engine and drove home.
He Yuan turned his head and fixed his gaze on Chen Qing, asking, "Were you frightened today?"
Chen Qing told the truth: "Yes, I have already written my will, including your life story and information about your friends, so that it will be easier for the child to find his biological father and ask for child support. I didn't expect you to come back so soon, you've wasted my time."
Her words were light, but He Yuan's expression turned extremely ugly: "Is there no way to find out who the murderer is?"
Chen Qing shook his head: "They're all dead, there's no way to investigate."
He Yuan asked again, "That man..."
Chen Qing continued, "That male boss is a suspect, but I don't have any evidence at the moment, so I can't convict him."
Xiao Yu sat in the back row listening, her brows furrowed into a small knot: "Then Auntie, didn't you suffer for nothing?"
"Hmm... not really. At least we've caught the spy in the factory. I'll do a thorough investigation again later."
Chen Qing felt that he had learned his lesson and should pay more attention to his own safety in the future, and not take unnecessary risks.
Noticing that the two people in the car looked unwell, Chen Qing reassured them, "This kind of thing never happens normally. I have bodyguards with me, so don't worry, it's not a big deal."
He Yuandao asked, "Would you like to have a gun too?"
Chen Qing: "Even if I had it, I wouldn't dare use it."
He Yuan: "It can also intimidate others."
Chen Qing thought for a moment and said, "Then get me one."
"Okay, I'll teach you how to use it later."
He had been hunted down several times abroad and was quite skilled at using firearms.
Chen Qing drove to the family quarters of Shengxia Sports Apparel Factory and told him, "We've moved. Now the place is bigger and life is more convenient. The kids all have their own rooms, but Youyou likes to sleep with He Yuxiang, so his room has been empty. Pingping likes to read and enjoys being cozy in his room."
He Yuan became extremely nervous at the thought of seeing the two children: "They probably don't recognize me, right?"
Chen Qing: "I know them. I've told them about it and shown them your old photos. They know that you've been saving money and living frugally outside, sending it home to your family so they can enjoy a better life. They feel sorry for you."
The children are naturally curious about their father. Chen Qing was worried that the two siblings and He Yuan had a bad relationship, so she deliberately portrayed He Yuan as pitiful and great. Perhaps that was indeed the case, but when the children couldn't directly love their distant father, Chen Qing felt that admiration and pity were acceptable.
But every time she mentions He Yuan, she gets easily upset, which makes the children afraid to ask her too many questions.
Now that He Yuan is home, Chen Qing estimates that even if the child isn't used to it, he won't be too resistant. (End of Chapter)
