Chapter 66 Chapter 66



When Zhou Yexuan saw Shen Qingqing like this, he knew that she had something to say to him, but after what happened today, it would be really strange if she didn't come to talk to him.

He came and sat down next to Shen Qingqing, and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, it's because I didn't handle the relationship between Yanyan and Dad well that they had such a conflict today."

Shen Qingqing knew that Zhou Yexuan, as a son and a father, was not feeling well being caught between the two of them, and she herself was not sure she could convince the old-fashioned and stubborn Zhou Qian.

She sighed and said, "Alas, I know this is not your problem. After all, no one can do anything when you meet someone who is too stubborn."

And seeing Zhou Qian's stubbornness, Shen Qingqing even felt that Zhou Ruoyan might have inherited Zhou Qian's stubbornness and ended up in a dead end.

If she could be more open-minded, with her background, even if she took the wrong path, she could quickly get back on the right track.

She thought about the child who was crying softly just now, and decided that she must provide good psychological counseling for the child in the future, and make sure that the child becomes an open-minded person. It is better to be a lazy person than to get stuck in a dead end!

Shen Qingqing felt that she had a pretty good personality and could remain calm even when faced with something like time travel.

Shen Qingqing felt that someone like Zhou Yexuan who was too serious and picky was not a good choice. She thought it would be better for her to let her son spend more time with her and help him become a more open-minded person.

However, she did not go to Zhou Yexuan today because of Zhou Qian's matter. She was not the kind of person who would punish herself for other people's mistakes.

In her opinion, if Zhou Qian couldn't figure it out, then she would continue to take the child away from Zhou Qian. Anyway, the child didn't need Zhou Qian to raise him.

What she wanted to discuss with Zhou Yexuan today was the child’s biological mother, Zhou Ruoyan.

It is said that mother and child have instincts. The desire shown by the child in the afternoon was obvious, even when he knew nothing.

Of course, Shen Qingqing didn't think that the child should be told the truth, but she felt that it was necessary to take the child to see his biological mother. She felt that Zhou Yexuan would not want his sister to be completely forgotten by his own child.

Thinking of this, she said, "Yanyan told me this afternoon that the reason he went into that room was because he felt familiar when he was at the door, so he went in. I think Yanyan must miss his biological mother very much. I know you hid it from him because you wanted to give him a happy childhood, but I think it is necessary for him to touch his mother's things occasionally and pay homage to his mother, even if he is a nephew?"

Zhou Yexuan stood there in a daze. He originally thought that the child was young and would not have so many thoughts, but it seemed that he had indeed underestimated the nature of mother and child.

"Yanyan has always missed his mother. I remember when I first brought him back, he couldn't even speak a few consecutive sentences, but he kept asking me where his mother was. I always avoided the topic."

"Maybe Yanyan knew that asking again would not yield any results, so he gradually stopped asking. Children don't have good memories, so I just assumed that he forgot. But I knew Yanyan wanted a mother, so that's when I agreed to marry you. I'm glad that you are now doing a good job of being a mother. I can see that Yanyan really relies on you, and you fill the gap of maternal love for him."

Zhou Yexuan was praising her? Shen Qingqing was a little surprised and a little guilty.

There were some accidental factors that led to her getting along well with Yanyan. To be fair, she was indeed not a qualified mother, and she even did a lot of things to harm her child.

However, now is not the time to discuss whether she is qualified or not. What Shen Qingqing wants to discuss now is the issue of how to deal with Zhou Jiayan's biological mother.

She turned her head and looked at Zhou Yexuan with a sincere look, "I have a suggestion. Let's take some time to take Yanyan to visit Ruoyan. Don't tell Yanyan the truth, just tell him that this is a relative or a friend. Yanyan misses his mother very much, and I think Ruoyan should also want to see her son."

Shen Qingqing was a little nervous, because she knew that her suggestion was a bit beyond the line and a bit risky, and she didn't know whether the man in front of her, who always acted cautiously, would agree.

As expected, as soon as Shen Qingqing finished speaking, Zhou Yexuan fell into deep thought and remained silent for a long time.

Just when Shen Qingqing thought Zhou Yexuan must be trying to find a way to reject her, she saw the man in front of her nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as possible."

What Shen Qingqing didn't expect was that Zhou Yexuan's speed was even faster than she thought.

The next day, he told Shen Qingqing that he had arranged the flight and applied for the route, and could fly to Country F in the evening.

Zhou Ruoyan went to university in Country F and died in Country F, so he buried Zhou Ruoyan in a high-end cemetery in Country F and went there to pay tribute to her regularly.

Shen Qingqing was very surprised, "How come you're so fast? I'm not even ready."

Zhou Yexuan smiled and said, "It was just a coincidence. I happened to have a meeting there and was going to fly over anyway. I thought it would be better to do it today, so I arranged it."

Then, he turned to look at Zhou Jiayan who was standing beside him, "Yanyan, do you want to go to Country F with your dad?"

Zhou Jiayan didn't know about all these twists and turns. His mind was now full of the idea of ​​going out to play with his parents, so he cheered, "Great!"

At the same time, he put his arms around Zhou Yexuan's neck and whispered in Zhou Yexuan's ear, "Wow, Dad, you've finally figured out a way to take Mom on a trip. Yanyan will continue to support you."

Zhou Yexuan thought that this was a really nice misunderstanding, but it was also a good thing that his son was so happy.

He stretched out his hand and pinched Zhou Jiayan's little face, wondering in his heart why such a young child could have so many thoughts. However, it was a good thing that he misunderstood like this, so let him think so.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the family of three boarded a private plane to Country F. The total flight time was nearly 20 hours.

Such a long flight would be very torturous for most people, but this problem does not exist for private jets that have bedrooms and even bathrooms.

As soon as they got on the plane and took off, Shen Qingqing took Zhou Jiayan to change into pajamas and lie down on the two-meter-wide bed to sleep. When they got up after a good sleep, they should be there after having a meal and watching a TV show.

As for Zhou Yexuan, he sat alone outside the bedroom, continuing to look at documents and working hard.

Before falling asleep, Shen Qingqing thought, it was all because of Zhou Yexuan's hard work that she and Yanyan had the good life they have now. She could consider being nicer to Zhou Yexuan tomorrow.

Because of the time difference, they arrived in the morning local time.

They did not choose to stay in a hotel, but instead lived in a manor.

This manor has a history of several hundred years, but it is well maintained. According to Zhou Yexuan, he bought it specially because he often visited his sister.

There are regular servants and gardeners to clean and maintain the villa, so you can't tell that the garden is not occupied on a daily basis.

The decoration in the room still maintains a somewhat classical Rococo style, but the furniture and electrical appliances have been replaced with modern styles.

As soon as he entered the door, the little guy Zhou Jiayan began to look around excitedly and touch everything. He was very curious about this house which had a completely different style from his home.

He said to Zhou Yexuan, "Wow, Dad, this place looks like a castle in a cartoon. Yanyan likes this house."

Zhou Yexuan was very satisfied with his son's support. He patted the child's head and said with a smile, "As long as Yanyan likes it, that's good. If Yanyan likes it, then Dad will bring you here to play more often during the holidays."

Zhou Jiayan nodded decisively.

After checking in and putting down his luggage, Zhou Yexuan went straight to the branch office to work.

Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan had already slept enough on the plane, so they didn't plan to rest.

As everyone knows, this is a fashion paradise, so Shen Qingqing plans to take Zhou Jiayan out for a stroll.

In fact, she didn't have much interest in museums, art galleries, and the Eiffel Tower, but with a "thirsty for knowledge" kid by her side, she could only do what most parents in the world did and take him to visit major museums and then check in at landmarks.

But the little guy obviously wasn't a child with great artistic talent. After visiting the museum, he leaned against Shen Qingqing and said to her listlessly, "Mom, I feel a little tired, and I can't understand many of the paintings. Why don't we go?"

Shen Qingqing thought about the abstract paintings hanging on the wall and thought, I don't understand them either. Even though she knew that these abstract lines were very expensive, many of them even cost hundreds of millions of dollars, she still couldn't appreciate them.

Fortunately, the child in front of her didn't have much artistic talent. It would have been awkward if he had pestered her to explain it to him.

Thinking of this, she hugged the child and said comfortingly, "Yanyan, if that's the case, you should go shopping with your mother later. There is also a theme park here. How about we go there tomorrow?"

After hearing Shen Qingqing's words, the child, who had been a little gloomy before, suddenly brightened up and said, "Okay, okay, Mom, let's go."

Looking at the impatient little dumpling, Shen Qingqing sighed in her heart, oh, it seems that they, mother and son, are destined to be the tacky "nouveau riche" mother and son!

Although the experience in the museum was not very pleasant, shopping here was very enjoyable for Shen Qingqing.

This is the headquarters of several luxury giants. There are many new models in the luxury flagship stores that are not available in China. Shen Qingqing couldn't count how many times she had used her card.

Especially now that all major luxury stores have dedicated Chinese shopping guides, Shen Qingqing can communicate without any obstacles. She was originally worried about what to do if the store clerks could not speak English.

Although she had no appreciation ability in paintings and artworks, she had a very good eye for clothing and jewelry. At this time, Shen Qingqing felt that she was not so unartistic. In her previous life, she was even the queen of selling goods.

Shen Qingqing not only made a large purchase for herself, but also for Zhou Jiayan.

After all, the little girl was so cute, and when Shen Qingqing saw the cute little clothes, she couldn't help but want to put them on Zhou Jiayan.

This time, Zhou Jiayan was much more cooperative than the last time, especially when Shen Qingqing praised him for being handsome and cute in front of the mirror, Zhou Jiayan's face was full of smiles, and he even took the initiative to try on a few sets of clothes.

However, when Zhou Jiayan saw that Shen Qingqing bought clothes for himself and Shen Qingqing, the child became dissatisfied again.

He complained, "Mom, why did you only buy it for you and Yanyan? Why didn't you buy it for Dad? Dad is so pitiful. He has nothing."

Shen Qingqing recalled that she and her child were sleeping on the plane yesterday while Zhou Yexuan was still working. Indeed, if it weren't for Zhou Yexuan's hard work, how could they and their child have such a happy life now?

Thinking of this, Shen Qingqing felt a little guilty. She touched the child's head and said, "Yanyan, you are right. We should buy something for Dad."

After hearing what his mother said, Zhou Jiayan nodded, then looked at Shen Qingqing with sparkling eyes, a look of anticipation.

Shen Qingqing looked around and began to think about what to buy for Zhou Yexuan. Then she realized that he didn't know anything about Zhou Yexuan's clothing size, shoe size, or favorite style. She felt embarrassed...

Finally, she looked at the rack with ties of various colors...

Shen Qingqing decided, how about a tie?

So she held out her hand and called the clerk, "Please help me send that crimson tie as well."

Zhou Jiayan, who was standing by, became even more anxious when he saw that Shen Qingqing only bought one tie. How could Mom only buy one tie for Dad?

He tugged at Shen Qingqing's clothes anxiously, "Mom, how could you only buy one tie? That's too stingy!"

Seeing the anxious look of the child, Shen Qingqing also felt that she seemed to be a bit stingy.

So she turned around and said to the clerk with a smile, "In that case, please help me pack up all the ties of different colors on this shelf."

After giving the instructions to the clerk, Shen Qingqing looked down at Zhou Jiayan and said with a smile, "Yanyan, how is it? Is mom generous enough? I've taken over all the ties on that shelf."

Zhou Jiayan opened his mouth in surprise. Why did he always feel that something was wrong?

After buying almost everything, Shen Qingqing took Zhou Jiayan for a stroll nearby.

This is the most prosperous city center, so naturally there are many tourists and many small shops selling small commodities and souvenirs.

Shen Qingqing had no interest in this, but she couldn't help but have a little kid by her side who was curious about everything and wanted to see everything he saw.

Fortunately, although the child was curious, he did not ask Shen Qingqing to buy them. After Shen Qingqing pointed out the production locations of those so-called souvenirs, the child left obediently.

Zhou Jiayan was still a little depressed about these so-called local "souvenirs" that were not actually local. He looked up and asked Shen Qingqing, "Mom, these people are so bad. These things are obviously not made in China, why do they still want to deceive people?"

Shen Qingqing saw how depressed the child was and decided to let the child think in a different way.

"Yanyan, this is of course a cost issue. Just like why do I import so many things? In addition to the real shortage, part of the reason is cost. The labor cost in country F is too high now, and the light industrial capacity is basically gone, so we can only import."

Zhou Jiayan listened to Shen Qingqing's words, looking thoughtful.

As they were talking, Shen Qingqing took Zhou Jiayan into a jewelry store with very elegant decoration.

This jewelry store doesn't look like a big brand, but the furnishings inside are very charming, and the styles of the jewelry seem to be decades or even hundreds of years old, but this does not mean it is old-fashioned or outdated.

Many of the designs were stunning in Shen Qingqing's eyes, and made her more excited than when she went shopping in the big-name jewelry store next door.

She lowered her head and read the small words on the nameplates, and then she discovered that many of these jewels were actually antiques.

For a moment, her expression changed as she looked at the store. To be able to open such a store in this location, the owner must be very powerful.

At the same time, the jewelry here are not marked with prices, just like opening a blind box. In this case, I don’t know whether I will be surprised or shocked.

However, Shen Qingqing still started to choose excitedly. After all, she was not the kind of person who cared about face. She would feel embarrassed to buy something if asked. If the price was too outrageous, she would just leave.

Shen Qingqing quickly spotted a ruby ​​necklace in a cupboard - the ruby ​​was inlaid in gold. Due to the erosion of time, it was not as shiny as the newly cut gems, but in Shen Qingqing's opinion, this gave it a different charm.

She looked around and wanted to call a clerk, but surprisingly, there were only two clerks in such a store with so many precious jewels, one was standing at the front desk and the other was explaining something to another customer.

Helplessly, Shen Qingqing could only stand there and wait.

Just when she was bored and thinking about going to have a meal and coming back later, a white-haired old man walked towards her with a cane.

The old man's face is full of wrinkles, but his deep facial contours and features still show how elegant he was when he was young. Moreover, this old man is actually a Chinese.

Shen Qingqing was a little surprised, and then she heard the old man's hoarse voice, "Little girl, do you like this necklace?"

How can she be called a little girl even though she has a child?

But being praised for being young is always a good thing. Thinking of this, she nodded and said with a smile, "I do like it, but it seems that the shop assistants are very busy now and have no time to greet me."

The old man nodded, reached out, took out a key, and opened the glass window.

Shen Qingqing was shocked. It turned out that this old man was the boss here?

Then, the old man took the necklace out of the window, handed it to Shen Qingqing, and whispered, "Come on, try it."

Shen Qingqing took the necklace from the old man, walked to a mirror, and put the necklace around her neck.

She had a very slender neck and beautiful face, which matched the ruby ​​necklace perfectly. Although she was still dressed casually today, Shen Qingqing could already imagine what the necklace would look like with a dress through herself in the mirror.

At this time, the child who had been following her like a little tail started to fart, "Wow, it's so beautiful. Although mommy looks good in any necklace, she looks even more beautiful with this necklace on today."

Shen Qingqing lowered her head and touched the head of the child who was blowing rainbow farts. This kid was getting better and better at coaxing her.

At the same time, she had made up her mind that as long as the price of the necklace was not too outrageous, she would buy it.

Thinking of this, she turned her head and looked at the old man again, "Old sir, this necklace is very beautiful, I like it very much and want to buy it, how much is it?"

There wasn't much expression on the old man's face. He just stretched out one hand and made a "5".

Shen Qingqing looked at the number and guessed 5 million? This was reasonable.

So she asked, "Excuse me, old man, is it five million?"

However, the old man shook his head unexpectedly.

Shen Qingqing's heart skipped a beat. Could it be 50 million? This was a huge price.

She said angrily, "Old sir, this necklace is probably not worth 50 million. You are a little..."

However, before she could finish her words, the old man opposite snorted coldly, "Did I say it was 50 million? You are such an impatient little girl."

He cleared his throat and said after a while, "I said fifty thousand."

fifty thousand?!

Shen Qingqing looked at the necklace in her hand in shock. Such a big ruby ​​was sold for 50,000. Wasn't this a fake necklace?

However, she has seen a lot of jewelry over the years and thinks she has a good eye for jewelry. The workmanship of this necklace and the luster of the gems do not look fake at all. Could it be that the counterfeiting technology in this world has become so advanced?

Seeing the surprised expression on Shen Qingqing's face, the old man was not in a hurry, and continued to speak slowly, "Do you know why there are no prices in my store? Because this is the price I set based on my mood. I think you are quite pleasing to the eye, and this necklace will not disgrace your neck, so I gave you this price. If you want to buy it, buy it, if not, forget it."

Shen Qingqing: ...

Is there such a rich and willful person in this world? Or is the old man in front of me a complete liar?

But looking at the demeanor of the old man in front of me, it is obvious that he has held a high position for a long time and does not seem like a liar.

Shen Qingqing fell into a state of confusion until the voice of the child beside her woke her up.

"Mom, Yanyan has money. I have 50,000 yuan. I will buy it for you."

Shen Qingqing lowered her head and saw the little girl with an excited look on her face, as if she was happy that she had finally found an opportunity to give Shen Qingqing a gift.

"Mom, mom, you bought so many clothes for Yanyan today, Yanyan also wants to buy some for you."

Hearing the child's sensible words, Shen Qingqing felt like she was about to cry with emotion. What kind of divine child is this!

However, she did not need the child to pay her, but the child's words reminded her that it was only 50,000 yuan, and she would not suffer much loss even if it was fake.

So she finally smiled and said to the old man, "Okay, I'll buy it. Where can I swipe the card?"

However, Shen Qingqing did not let Zhou Jiayan pay in the end. When Shen Qingqing walked out of the store with the bag, Zhou Jiayan beside her was still unconvinced and kept chattering.

"Mom, why don't you buy it for Yanyan? Do you look down on Yanyan's New Year's money? I've already told you that I will definitely make more money in the future, so don't look down on me!"

Shen Qingqing was helpless with the child, because she couldn't understand why there were people in the world who were eager to give her money!

In order to prevent the child from continuing to chatter, she could only lower her head, look at the child, and comfort him, "Yanyan, I know you are rich now, and I also know that you can make more money in the future, but Mom thinks this necklace is too cheap today, so Yanyan, you should wait and give Mom a more expensive one later."

Zhou Jiayan finally calmed down, and then he clenched his fists like a chicken, and promised Shen Qingqing, "Mom, Yanyan will definitely work hard! I will buy you 50 million, no, 500 million worth of gems in the future!"

The child's unyielding expression made people laugh. Why did someone rush to pay? But this was a good thing for her. I just don't know if he will remember it when he grows up. Shen Qingqing touched the child's head encouragingly and said, "Okay, Yanyan, keep working hard. Let's go eat first. Only when you are full and full can you have strength."

After saying that, Shen Qingqing took Zhou Jiayan's little hand and walked towards a restaurant she had already set her eyes on. What she didn't see was that the old man behind her was staring at her without blinking.

The old man stood at the door of the shop, staring at Shen Qingqing's disappearing figure, lost in thought for a long time.

Until a man in a black suit stood behind the old man and reminded him, "Old man, it's almost dinner time, it's time to go home. And the necklace just now is worth more than ten million, why did you do that?"

The old man then turned his head and looked at the assistant beside him, with a weak smile on his wrinkled face, "I didn't expect to run into this girl here, it can be considered fate. After all, it's just a stone, let's give it to her to play with."

The man in the black suit was shocked. "Old man, do you mean that person is Miss Sun?"

The old man walked into the store and didn't answer, but his silence was already a sign of agreement.

The old man's name is Lin Simiao, and he is now seventy-five years old.

He was once the head of the Lin family and the father of Lin Chuyin and Lin Chuchao.

Since retiring two years ago, he has run the antique jewellery shop, selecting his customers as he sees fit.

He knew that his son returned to China partly for business, and partly, of course, to find Lin Chuyin and her daughter.

He knew that his son would do everything he could to bring the girl back to see him, but he didn't expect that it would happen so soon, and he would actually meet her here...

But now that their fate has come, it is indeed time for him to formally meet his granddaughter. :,,
