Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Counterattack.
Qin Moran walked into the apartment carrying a small schoolbag.
The first thing he did when he entered the room was to stick his little head out and look around with his big round eyes.
Then, I saw Qin Boxi sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window.
His second brother didn't lie and had really been waiting for him.
Qin Moran's eyes suddenly curved up: "Second brother, I'm back from school."
Qin Boxi also smiled faintly at him: "Mobao, you have worked hard in school."
Qin Moran changed into his slippers and ran over: "Brother, I got a reward at school today."
Qin Boxi listened carefully: "Hmm? What reward did Mo Bao get?"
Qin Moran began to mutter, "The teacher said I completed the assignment diligently, so he rewarded me with some candies. A boy even tried to snatch them from me—how despicable! But I protected them and didn't give them to him. I shared them with my good friends in class, and I also gave one to Li Chi."
Qin Boxi heard a familiar name: "Li Chi? Is that the little boy we took to the hospital that time?"
Qin Moran nodded immediately: "Yes, he is also in our kindergarten, but he is in Class 3 and I am in Class 1."
Qin Boxi: "Like this."
In the next few minutes, Qin Boxi kept listening to his brother mumbling about his kindergarten life.
They are trivial things, but they can calm people's mood and make time seem longer.
Finally, Qin Moran took out the last two candies from his small schoolbag and said, "Brother, look, I saved some for you too."
Qin Boxi was a little surprised, and smiled after a moment: "Thank you, Mo Bao."
Qin Boxi took it, peeled it, and fed one into Qin Moran's mouth first.
Qin Moran held the candy in his mouth, and one of his cheeks instantly puffed up.
Qin Boxi also ate one himself.
Very sweet fruit candy, sweet to the heart.
After they finished eating the candy, Qin Boxi began to peel an apple for Qin Moran.
His hands were beautiful, with long, slender knuckles and white skin that looked like works of art.
At this moment, he was holding a big red apple and a fruit knife in his hand.
Qin Boxi took a fruit knife and peeled the apple bit by bit.
He watched the sharp fruit knife cut through the peel so neatly and cleanly.
His mind went blank for a second, and he unconsciously looked at his wrist again.
There are many obvious blue veins on the wrist, and blood is flowing in them...
Qin Boxi couldn't control himself, his thoughts kept sliding towards unknown places, until...
It looks like someone is pulling the peel of an apple.
Qin Boxi had to come back to his senses, and then he saw his brother pulling the long peeled apple, and even seemed to want to put it in his mouth.
Qin Boxi was always amused by his brother's unexpected actions. He said, "Mo Bao, what are you doing?"
Qin Moran pulled at the long apple peel and exclaimed, "Second brother, you are so amazing! How can this apple peel be connected into a string?"
Qin Boxi couldn't find any explanation for a moment: "This... maybe I can get it after cutting it a few times?"
Qin Moran pulled the peel and asked eagerly, "Second brother, do you want to throw away this apple peel?"
Qin Boxi: "Well, the peel is not tasty."
Qin Moran tilted his head and looked at the apple peel in his hand with cherishment: "But I think it's delicious."
As he said this, he wanted to put it in his mouth.
Qin Boxi grabbed the peel and started a tug-of-war with him. "Mobao, this has already been peeled, you can't eat it. If you really want to eat it, just eat a whole apple next time."
"Oh, I see. Okay."
Qin Moran reluctantly let go of the apple peel.
Qin Boxi couldn't help but smile.
After being teased by his brother, he had no time to think about anything else. He carefully peeled an apple and then cut it into rabbit shapes.
He remembered that his brother loved to eat this.
Sure enough, when Qin Moran saw the rabbit-shaped apples on the plate, he was so happy that he lost his mind.
He picked up one of them, took a big bite, and said happily, "The apples peeled by my second brother are delicious."
Qin Boxi: "Are apples peeled differently by different people?"
Qin Moran nodded: "Yes, yes!"
Qin Boxi was a little curious: "Whose peeled apple do you think is not tasty?"
Qin Moran said firmly: "Third brother!!"
Qin Boxi was stunned at first, then burst out laughing. "If your third brother heard this, he would definitely be furious."
Qin Moran looked eccentric and said, "Then you have to keep it a secret for me, second brother."
Qin Boxi nodded: "Okay."
Happy times always pass quickly, and time soon came to night.
Qin Xuan's two subordinates bought dinner again.
They bought all this food directly from a high-end restaurant. One person would go to pick up the food while the other would wait here, taking turns.
The food was placed on the table, and Qin Boxi called them: "Come and eat together."
The two subordinates quickly refused: "No, we brought our own lunch boxes."
Qin Boxi said again: "It's okay. We bought so much anyway, Mo Bao and I can't finish it. You guys come and eat together."
The two subordinates looked at each other and finally came over.
They had always heard that the second young master of the Qin family was good-tempered and gentle, but they had never had much contact with Qin Boxi before, and only thought that he was that distant and shining big star. Unexpectedly, when they actually met him, they found that Qin Boxi was indeed as rumored, a particularly good person.
The four of them finished dinner together.
During the meal, Qin Moran was the one saying cute things.
The two subordinates were completely captivated by him.
Qin Boxi also listened to Qin Moran's speech very seriously.
But his recent condition has been very bad. He has suffered severe damage both physically and mentally.
He often gets lost in his own thoughts and becomes unaware of the things around him. His mind goes blank from time to time, and when he comes to his senses, it's as if he's had a temporary amnesia.
Qin Boxi put down his chopsticks and supported his forehead with his hand tiredly.
The two subordinates listened to Qin Moran's speech while secretly observing Qin Boxi.
It seems that they have to report the second young master's condition to President Qin to see if they need to call a doctor again.
It was late at night.
The two subordinates have reported the situation to Qin Xuan, and Qin Xuan also stated that he will arrange a doctor again.
The subordinates breathed a sigh of relief, then quietly retreated to their own rooms, leaving independent space to Qin Boxi and Qin Moran.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Qin Moran had finished washing up and applied some baby cream, making the whole baby smell fragrant.
He walked out of the bathroom wearing his cute little panda pajamas.
Outside the door, his second brother was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
Qin Moran looked at his second brother and couldn't help but stop.
At this moment, Qin Boxi was sitting on the sofa with his head slightly lowered. He didn't even dry his washed hair. The loose hair on his forehead was wet and dripping with water.
He sat there quietly with his eyelids drooping, not moving at all.
I felt as if I had no strength left in my body, and was filled with fatigue and loneliness.
Qin Moran looked at this scene, pouted his lips, and his expression became a little sad.
Time passes quietly.
It was not until more than ten minutes later that Qin Boxi realized that Qin Moran had not come out for a long time. He finally came to his senses and raised his head.
Seeing this, Qin Moran walked over.
Qin Boxi perked up: "Mobao, are you done washing?"
Qin Moran nodded.
Qin Boxi: "Okay, I'll take you back to your room to rest."
At this time, Qin Moran took the initiative to say: "Second brother, can I sleep with you?"
Qin Boxi was startled: "What?"
Qin Moran said with anticipation: "I want to sleep with my second brother because you can tell me stories."
Qin Boxi understood: "Is that so? That's fine."
So the two brothers went to Qin Boxi's bedroom together.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, Qin Moran started looking for something.
Qin Boxi was puzzled: "Mo Bao, what do you want?"
Qin Moran: "Hair dryer."
He stood on tiptoe and looked inside the cabinets, but he was too short to see what was inside.
Qin Boxi: "What does Mobao need a hair dryer for? Did you get your hair wet when you washed your face?"
Qin Moran said seriously: "No, I want to blow my second brother."
Qin Boxi was stunned. He didn't expect that Qin Moran was looking for the hair dryer for this.
He was stunned for several seconds before he smiled and said, "Mobao has grown up and become caring."
Qin Moran said proudly: "Yes, I'm over four years old!!"
In a short while, he will be five years old.
Qin Boxi felt a little emotional, as if he saw his younger brother growing up little by little.
Finally, Qin Boxi walked over and found a hair dryer, then dried his hair. After all, if his hair stayed wet, his brother would probably be worried.
After blowing their hair, they leaned against the headboard together.
Warm bedside lamp shines down.
Qin Boxi began to tell Qin Moran a bedtime story.
Qin Moran lay in his arms, listening with bright eyes.
Today's story is about a rag doll that can be installed with batteries.
This rag doll has its own mission and a lot of things to do, and it works hard every day.
Unfortunately, one day the battery of this rag doll ran out and it could no longer complete its mission. At the last moment when the power was exhausted, it shed sad tears.
Fortunately, fairy tales are all beautiful. In the end, a kind-hearted person installed a battery in the rag doll, and it came back to life and could continue its journey.
Qin Moran listened very carefully.
But children fall asleep easily. He felt sleepy while listening and couldn't help rubbing his eyes with his hands.
Seeing this, Qin Boxi said, "Mobao, go to sleep if you're tired."
Qin Moran suddenly had an idea: "Second brother, can you install a battery for me?"
Qin Boxi: "Hmm?"
Qin Moran said with reason: "I must be so sleepy because I'm out of battery. If I install a battery, I will definitely be full of energy again."
Qin Boxi smiled faintly: "But there is no place to install the battery on Mobao, what should I do?"
Qin Moran thought about it and it seemed so. He couldn’t install the battery.
Well, then I can only sleep.
Qin Boxi put down the storybook and patted him gently: "Okay, Mobao, go to sleep."
Qin Moran obediently closed his eyes, and in just a few seconds, he seemed to have fallen asleep.
The little girl was sleeping soundly, with her black eyelashes drooping and her face chubby.
A sweet milk dumpling.
Qin Boxi gently placed his brother on the pillow and watched him sleep.
Time passes by every second.
In the past, if Qin Boxi didn't take sleeping pills, he might not be able to fall asleep until two or three in the morning.
However, perhaps sleepiness really is contagious.
Tonight, he kept looking at his brother's sleeping face. After watching for dozens of minutes, he gradually felt sleepy.
Qin Boxi was a little surprised, but he didn't force himself to sleep. Instead, he turned off the bedside lamp and fell asleep with his brother.
With a sweet and soft little ball in my arms, even sleeping seems to become an extremely comfortable and simple thing.
This was the first time in all these years that Qin Boxi fell asleep so easily.
In the middle of the night, he woke up with a start as usual, his heart pounding.
His first reaction was to look towards the dark bedroom, feeling that someone was about to emerge from somewhere.
In the past, at this time, he could no longer fall asleep and would remain insomniac until dawn.
But tonight, after staring into the darkness for a few seconds, he felt the softness of a child in his arms.
Qin Boxi looked into his arms and saw Qin Moran sleeping soundly.
There was no scary person in the bedroom, only his innocent little brother.
With this knowledge of safety, Qin Boxi's tense nerves relaxed.
As soon as I relaxed, sleepiness came over me like a tide.
He hugged Qin Moran tightly and fell asleep again.
A good night's sleep.
The next day came.
It was almost eight o'clock when Qin Boxi woke up slowly.
He hadn't had such a good sleep in a long time, and was a little dazed for a moment.
Although he woke up two or three times last night, he fell asleep quickly each time. In total, he slept for almost seven hours.
For him, it was already a miracle.
Qin Boxi was a little dazed and couldn't recover.
For someone who suffers from insomnia, being able to have a good night's sleep is better than anything else.
He now felt that his body was lighter than before.
Qin Boxi was stunned and looked at Qin Moran in his arms.
He knew that the reason he had such a good sleep last night was entirely due to sleeping with his brother.
It turns out that his brother's medicine can actually help him sleep and improve his spirit.
At this time, Qin Moran in his arms also woke up and blinked sleepily.
Qin Boxi whispered, "Is Mo Bao awake?"
Qin Moran's voice was soft and tender: "Second brother."
Qin Boxi: "Do you want to get up now?"
"Yes, I want to go to school."
Little Dumpling was not a lazy bed-sitter at all. After waking up, he sat up from the quilt and yawned slightly.
Qin Boxi also sat up and said with a smile: "Mo Bao is really a good child who goes to school seriously every day."
Qin Moran tilted his head and smiled.
A beautiful day starts with the healing smile of the little baby.
Qin Moran got up obediently, then washed up and had breakfast.
Before leaving the apartment, he made the same promise with his second brother: "Second brother, will you wait for me at home today?"
Qin Boxi nodded: "Yes."
Qin Moran was happy: "Then I will come back to accompany you after school this afternoon."
Qin Boxi: "Okay."
Qin Moran then went to school carrying his small schoolbag.
…
The other side.
He Lingya was almost going crazy.
The core department of her company, the R&D department, was actually poached by Qin Xuan with a high salary! !
And the entire department was poached! !
Dozens of people!!!
The key point is that He Lingya only found out about such a big thing at the last moment, and hadn't felt any disturbance at all before that.
All I can say is that Qin Xuan has become more and more powerful after so many years of experience.
Furthermore, Qin Xuan’s move was really ruthless.
You have to know that if a company is separated from its core departments, the remaining departments will basically not function well, and the entire company will almost become an empty shell.
He Lingya threw the documents in her hand violently.
The secretary hurried over and picked it up carefully.
He Lingya gritted her teeth and said, "I treated those employees well, so are they just going to abandon the company like that?"
The secretary stood aside huddled together, not daring to speak.
In fact, in her opinion, it was normal for those people in the R&D department to leave.
First, working under He Lingya is a high-pressure situation every day. With He Lingya's personality, she's bound to be extremely harsh on her employees. While she does pay well, who wants to be on edge 24/7?
Besides, the Qin Group personally invited him. Who wouldn't take such a good olive branch? The salary offered by the Qin Group would only be higher.
The secretary just hated herself for not having the ability to be poached. Otherwise, she would definitely be willing to go to Qin Group.
He Lingya stood there, her chest heaving for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, she came up with a plan. She turned to her secretary and said, "Go, help me contact Mr. Qi and tell him I want to discuss cooperation."
The secretary reminded him, "But we've had some minor friction with Mr. Qi. If we take the initiative to go find him now, it would be like bowing our heads first. Wouldn't that be a bit..."
He Lingya has been in business for so many years that she understands more than a secretary: "In business, you have to be able to hold your head high, but also humble yourself. Otherwise, are you going to watch the company suffer losses and then do nothing?"
Secretary: "But, is Mr. Qi willing to contact us? After all, we have had conflicts in the past..."
He Lingya: "Remember, in the business world, everyone only cares about profit. There are no permanent friends, nor permanent enemies. As long as we are willing to give him a little more profit, he will not refuse to cooperate with us."
The secretary nodded: "Okay, I'll do it right away."
The secretary left.
He Lingya stood alone in the office, her expression difficult to discern.
What a Qin Xuan, her own son, he was so heartless to do things.
I have to say, Qin Xuan is really powerful. He actually poached someone from right under her nose, and she didn't even notice a word.
He Lingya sneered.
But Qin Xuan shouldn't underestimate her. If she gave in like this, she would no longer be He Lingya.
…
In the afternoon, Qin Li'an and Qin Xuan returned to the manor together.
The father and son got out of the car and talked as they walked.
Naturally, we talked about recent events and some strategies.
At this time, Madam Qin came to the manor and said, "You two, please stand still."
Qin Li'an stopped and was a little surprised: "Mom, why are you here?"
Qin Xuan also called out, "Grandma."
Madam Qin walked steadily up to the father and son, looked at them in turn, and then spoke: "Is it okay if I don't come? What have you been doing recently?"
Qin Li'an couldn't guess why she came today, so he interrupted her first: "If you want to talk about He Lingya, then there is no need."
Old Madam Qin choked, and the words she had prepared were silenced.
After a few seconds of pause, Madam Qin continued, "You think I'm too old to get involved in these things, right?"
Qin Li'an always gave in to his mother in the past, but this time he was firm: "Mom, if you look deeper into what kind of person He Lingya is, you won't speak well of her anymore. There are some things I won't go into detail about, but I'll put it this way today: you can either choose He Lingya or our whole family."
Choosing one of the two, what a serious statement.
These words successfully made the situation a little tense.
Old Madam Qin was stunned on the spot.
She knew her son. Qin Li'an usually treated others kindly, at least on the surface. However, this time, Qin Li'an didn't even put on an act.
She was not stupid and realized the seriousness of the matter.
Old Madam Qin was stunned for a moment, then looked at Qin Xuan, the heir who attracted everyone's attention.
Qin Xuan also expressed his attitude: "I agree with what Dad said."
Old Madam Qin knew that there was no turning back on this matter.
She was old but young at heart, and she thought about the matter quickly.
To put it bluntly, does she really like He Lingya, her former daughter-in-law, so much?
Just as she didn't really hate her current daughter-in-law Chen Ruolan.
If she and He Lingya had met in a different way, perhaps she would have appreciated some of He Lingya's excellent qualities, but it was precisely because He Lingya was her daughter-in-law that she was extremely dissatisfied and found fault with her.
She doesn't value any of her daughters-in-law, she only cares about the interests of her son Qin Li'an.
She will like the daughter-in-law who can bring the greatest help to her son.
In other words, if He Lingya and Chen Ruolan were put aside and a more powerful daughter-in-law came, she would like the more powerful one.
She is not an evil mother-in-law in the general sense, she is just the defender of her son's best interests.
But now, she was keenly aware that perhaps she really shouldn't get involved in these matters.
If I continue to interfere, my son and grandson might hate me.
Finally, Madam Qin once again confirmed with Qin Li'an: "Then there's no need for me to say anything more, right?"
Qin Li'an told her solemnly, "Yes. What you should do is enjoy your old age like your father did, and not get too involved in your children's affairs."
He knew that his mother was a smart old lady and would figure out the key to this.
Madam Qin nodded: "Okay, I understand."
After saying that, she turned and left, her back looking like she had aged a few years.
Qin Xuan followed: "Grandma, I'll take you there."
…
In the apartment.
Qin Moran also came back from school.
At this moment, he was lying on the coffee table, took out a blank piece of paper, and took out his colored pencil box.
Qin Boxi sat on the carpet beside him, propping his head on one hand, and looked at him and asked, "Mo Bao wants to paint?"
Qin Moran replied, "This is the homework our teacher assigned us. She asked us to go home and draw a picture of the prairie."
Qin Boxi understood: "Is that so? Then let Mo Baohua draw. I'll stay by your side."
"Okay~"
Qin Moran sat on the coffee table, carefully spread out the paper, and then opened his pencil box.
But what should be painted on the prairie?
He held his face in his hands, thinking hard.
By the way, he has seen Animal World. Isn’t there a prairie in it?
Qin Moran got an inspiration and quickly took a pen from the box.
Qin Boxi just watched him quietly from the side.
Qin Moran first drew the most basic things on the prairie.
He used a green pen to draw a lot of grass at the bottom, and then used a yellow pen to draw a big sun in the sky.
After drawing these two basic things, you can start drawing the animals on the prairie.
Qin Moran took a brown pen and began to draw a giraffe.
As he was drawing, he sighed, "The giraffe's neck is so long. Isn't it tiring to carry such a long neck every day?"
Qin Boxi smiled and said, "If you have the chance, you can go to the savannah and ask the giraffes."
Qin Moran nodded: "Okay."
After carefully finishing the giraffe, he began to draw the zebra.
While drawing the zebra, he discovered something new: "The stripes on the zebra really look like the zebra crossings on our roads."
Qin Boxi agreed, "Yes, that's why humans named those lines zebra crossings."
Qin Moran was painting happily.
He not only drew giraffes and zebras, but also elephants, bison, rabbits and so on.
For every animal he draws, he can say some cute words.
It can be seen that he is usually very serious about watching Animal World.
In the end, his drawing paper was filled with animals, and each animal looked very vivid.
Qin Moran picked up the drawing paper and took a look: "I think it's almost done now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he thought of something: "Oh, I forgot to draw the lion."
Then he lay back on the coffee table, picked up a pen and started drawing a lion.
But before the brush touched the paper, he stopped again, with an embarrassed expression on his face.
Qin Boxi kept watching him: "Why don't you paint anymore?"
Qin Moran frowned. "I'd better not draw a lion. What if I draw a lion and it eats all the animals?"
It’s really sad to think about it.
sigh.
Qin Moran's wild imagination successfully made Qin Boxi smile.
Even the two subordinates in the distance couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.
The lion is really despised.
Qin Moran saw his second brother smile and blinked in confusion: "Did I say something wrong?"
Qin Boxi agreed, "That's right, we really shouldn't draw a lion. Otherwise, it would eat all the little animals that Mo Bao worked so hard to draw, and that would be terrible."
Qin Moran nodded heavily.
That’s right, that’s it!!
