Little Ruanruan blinked her bright, watery eyes, looking at Qin Guanlin with an innocent expression. "Yes, my brothers haven't come back yet. Uncle Qin, is there something you need from my brother?"
Qin Guanlin is a cunning old fox. Although Xiao Ruanruan has checked all his information, she can only see from the information that he has been collecting evidence against his two younger brothers, Qin Laosan (Qin You) and Qin Laosi (Qin Guang), probably in order to eliminate his two younger brothers in the future family property dispute.
However, even after he suspected that their mother was Grandma Qin's daughter, he did not take any action against the Su family, nor did he even investigate.
Therefore, Xiao Ruanruan was unsure what her uncle's attitude towards them really was.
Before Qin Guanlin could speak, the four Su brothers, including Su Yiqing, returned carrying Su Xiaowu, followed by Su Lei.
Qin Guanlin got up and walked towards Su Yiqing.
Before speaking, he seemed to hesitate for a moment about how to address him before saying, "Mr. Su, there's something I'd like to discuss with you privately."
Regarding your mother and background.
Su Yiqing's cold face was expressionless, and neither were the three brothers, Su Ziyuan, Su Yifan, and Su Yan.
Su Xiaowu, however, looked shocked and peeked out from behind her brothers. "About our mother and our background? Could it be that Mom really is Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin's daughter?"
Little Ruanruan looked at the outspoken older brother and helplessly rubbed her forehead with her little hand.
Su Lei stepped forward and said, "Big brother, Qianqian has been participating in a program recently and has fallen behind in her studies. I'll take her upstairs to catch up on her lessons."
As he spoke, he called out to Susie.
Just as Su Xixi was about to speak, Su Lei frowned and said seriously, "Let's go!"
Susie glanced at her brothers again, then silently slipped off the sofa, about to leave.
Su Yiqing's gentle gaze fell on her and Su Lei, "Lei'er, you and Qianqian don't need to avoid each other."
Su Yiqing looked at Qin Guanlin, "Mr. Qin, you know about my mother's background, and I've known about it for a long time."
If you're worried that I'll use my mother's background to try and get a share of the Qin family's assets, you don't need to worry.
I can tell you definitively that neither I nor my siblings have the slightest interest in the Qin family's wealth.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Qin Guanlin's face. When he first heard his wife say that Su Ruanruan and the others might be his sister's daughters, his first reaction was that another family would be vying for the Qin family's assets.
But as the Su family settled in the capital, he gained a deeper understanding of their strength. He knew that while others might covet the Qin family's wealth, the Su family would never consider it a prize.
Qin Guanlin was quite frank. After hearing what Su Yiqing said, he said directly, "Mr. Su, perhaps I am qualified to call you nephew. I'm sorry, I was petty before and misunderstood you."
But this visit wasn't because of that.
Instead…
He paused for a moment and continued, "Last time, after the old man was poisoned, he was cured with the help of Xiao Ruanruan and the second young master of the Xiao family. After that, the old man and the old lady went to settle in Chongqing."
They always felt they owed your mother a lot, so they wanted to go to the place where your mother used to live, and spend the last moments of their lives getting closer to her.
They live not far from the cemetery where your mother is laid to rest…
When Qin Guanlin said those words, the expressions on the faces of the Su brothers changed slightly.
They truly never imagined that the place where the two elderly people, both over eighty years old, chose to live in seclusion would be the cemetery where their mother rests in peace.
Qin Guanlin's voice was also somewhat subdued, "I went to Chongqing yesterday to see them. The old man... is dying."
Although neither he nor the old lady had any, I could tell he hoped to meet you.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruanruan froze, feeling a sudden tightness in her chest, as if a lump of cotton had been stuffed inside her.
Even Qin Sihan, who was forced to take an etiquette class and was trying to act elegant and ladylike, suddenly jumped off the sofa and rushed to Qin Guanlin's feet, "Dad, you're talking nonsense!"
When you came back yesterday, you said that Grandpa and Grandma are doing well, and that you would take me to see them next time you visit.
This time, Qin Guanlin didn't scold her; instead, he picked her up.
He said to Su Yiqing, "I know that to you, neither I nor the old man and the old woman are any different from strangers. This request may be a bit unreasonable for you, but... I still hope that you can seriously consider it."
Su Yiqing's gaze swept over her younger siblings, and she pulled Xiao Ruanruan, who was standing to the side with tears in her eyes, to her side. "Don't worry about it, we'll go."
Qin Guanlin was visibly surprised, probably not expecting Su Yiqing to agree so readily.
After a moment of stunned silence, he immediately said excitedly, "I'll apply for the flight route right away, and we'll set off this afternoon."
“No need to apply. Our company’s planes have a special license for the Beijing-Chongqing route, so we can depart now,” Su Yiqing said directly.
Since the Su family had just arrived in Beijing, and because they still had many businesses in Chongqing, Su Yiqing often had to travel between Chongqing and Beijing within a single day. Therefore, she applied for a special license to use the air route.
"Mr. Qin, please wait a moment, I need to make a phone call." Su Yiqing picked up Xiao Ruanruan and handed her to Su Ziyuan. Looking at Xiao Ruanruan's tearful face, she pinched her cheek tenderly. "Xiao Ruanruan, it's okay. Grandpa Qin is a lucky man, he will definitely get through this."
