That night, Lan Sinian returned to the palace and found that his queen and eldest son had not eaten yet and were sitting at the dining table waiting for him.
The Emperor, who had always been at the bottom of the family, was suddenly flattered. His family seemed to be taking the initiative lately! Could it be that they loved him so much that they couldn't help themselves?!
"Are you back? Come and have dinner." Qin Changqing glanced at him and greeted him.
The little fellow Qin Xu stared at him blankly, as if in a daze.
"I'm here." Lan Sinian smiled and kissed the queen's pretty face first, then tilted his head and kissed Qin Xu's little face, and reached out to rub his head, then sat down next to them.
Dinner at the palace is usually quite punctual. In the past, it would have started long ago, but today, in order to wait for Lan Sinian, it didn't start until it was almost dark.
His Majesty the Emperor looked at his empress, then at his eldest son, and said arrogantly: "You don't have to wait for me to come back to eat in the future. The son is in the stage of physical development and cannot be hungry. You two can't be hungry now." He was very considerate and behaved like a patriarch.
Qin Changqing looked up at him, smiled, and said nothing. Lan Sinian's heart was filled with joy at seeing his smile, and he paid no attention to anything else, simply enjoying his queen's beautiful face with his meal.
During the meal, Lan Sinian ate the most, Qin Changqing was okay, but Qin Xu, who should have been the most heartless, ate absent-mindedly, glancing at Lan Sinian with his big eyes from time to time, then quickly retracting his gaze.
Such a powerful Blue Dad is actually his biological father! This is like a dream!
Could it be that Dad made a mistake? Isn't Papa Smurf an alien? Could he actually be his biological father?
"Hey, kid, is there a dumpling on my face?" Lan Sinian suddenly asked with a smile. Qin Xu, who thought he had concealed it well, was startled and inhaled the soup into his trachea, causing him to cough violently.
Lan Sinian was also startled. He hurried over and patted him on the back, saying, "I'm sorry for telling jokes while you were eating. Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want to call a doctor to check you out?"
Qin Xu coughed for a while and finally coughed out the soup. His face flushed and he shook his head, whispering, "No, no need."
Qin Changqing glared at Lan Sinian and wiped the little guy's mouth with a handkerchief. It suddenly occurred to him that the little guy knew Lan Sinian was his biological father, but Lan Sinian didn't know that the little guy was his biological son. The emotional imbalance between the two sides made Qin Xu feel very disappointed.
He had some doubts about whether he had made a mistake in telling the little guy the news first... But now that it had come to this, he might as well find a way to make Lan Sinian remember what happened that year sooner.
But what exactly happened back then, probably only the deceased old emperor knows, and it is not known whether he left any clues.
The not-so-careful Emperor finally realized that something was wrong with the father and son tonight!
After finally finishing dinner, the family went for a walk in the garden.
Qin Xu walked silently all the way. After a while, he was suddenly patted on the top of his head. He tilted his head back and saw Papa Lan's smiling face.
"Dad, Dad..." His heart was pounding when he called out this name. From then on, this name would have a completely different meaning to him.
Lan Sinian was clueless and simply bent over to pick the man up. He was tall, with strong arms, and Qin Xu, who was already about 120 or 130cm tall, looked tiny next to him, so he could easily lift him.
"Little guy, didn't you do well in the exam today? Are you afraid that your father will beat you?" Lan Sinian teased him with a smile.
Qin Xu was a little dissatisfied, "Although my test results were not good, they were not bad either!"
"Okay then, Dad guessed wrong. Then tell me, why were you winking at me just now?" Lan Sinian smiled and thought to himself, wait for you to tell me, I will tell my dear right away.
Qin Xu thought, who winked at you? He just, he just felt that he was nothing like him. Could Dad really have made a mistake?
"Let him come down and walk by himself, otherwise he will have a bloated stomach when he sleeps." Qin Changqing slapped Lan Sinian in the face.
His Majesty the Emperor wanted to hold the little guy for a while, but unfortunately he always obeyed his relatives. He shrugged his shoulders and put the person on the ground regretfully.
Even after he put the man down on the ground, he didn't let go of his hand, just holding onto the cub. He didn't know if it was because he carried the cub around every day, but when he saw the little guy, he always felt an inexplicable emotion, a desire to protect and cherish him. He instinctively hoped that he would one day reach a higher position than himself, which would make him even more proud than achieving such a high level of achievement himself.
A family of three... no, now it should be a family of four walking together in the garden. Even if they don't say anything, there is a warmth lingering around them. The family members can't help but think at the same time, I really hope they can always hold hands together like this.
When it was time for Qin Xu to rest, Qin Changqing sent him to the bedroom and talked to him.
"Xiao Xu, can you accept that your father Lan is your biological father?" Qin Changqing touched his head and sat sideways on the edge of the bed.
Qin Xu is already ten years old. A ten-year-old boy no longer needs his father to sit at the head of his bed and tell bedtime stories every day, so he actually feels a little awkward.
Qin Xu thought for a while, nodded honestly, and said a little embarrassedly: "I can accept it, that's great." Their family is a complete family, not a patchwork of things, and he is not an unwanted child. When his sister is born, they will be the closest siblings, and he will definitely take good care of her. That's great.
Qin Changqing seemed to sense his mood, and his eyes felt a little sore. He owed his son too much, and the same went for Lan Sinian.
"I will find a way to let him know about this as soon as possible, you don't have to worry," he touched his son's head again and said with a smile, "You see, even if he doesn't know that you are his biological son, he still loves you so much. This shows that he likes you as a son from the bottom of his heart. When he knows the truth, he will definitely love you more." Love plus guilt, even if they have more children to take care of in the future, their feelings towards their eldest son will be different.
No matter how sensible Qin Xu was, he was only ten years old after all. He didn't cry easily, but this time he couldn't help shedding two tears. He wiped them away with his sleeves embarrassedly, then nodded vigorously with red eyes and little face. He could really feel the love his fathers gave him.
Qin Changqing was still worried that his son might feel unbalanced, so he thought for a moment and said, "Then your status will definitely be different from now on. You are Papa Lan's biological son, one of the future heirs to the empire, and the future elder brother of your younger brothers and sisters. You must lead by example, understand?"
"Okay, I understand, Dad." Qin Xu nodded vigorously.
Qin Changqing said this in the hope that he would have a stronger sense of belonging and feel more secure in their small home, the place where they would live for the rest of their lives. However, he also didn't want him to feel too much pressure, so he took his words back a little.
"But you don't have to be too stressed. You're the offspring of me and your blue dad, so you're bound to be good. Just try your best, and don't try too hard, okay?"
"Okay." Qin Xu nodded obediently. He would remember his fathers' words carefully.
That night, Qin Xu fell asleep in Qin Changqing's arms. He was shy at first, but soon his attention was drawn to the baby in his father's belly. After learning the truth, his feelings towards the baby changed. From now on, if the baby doesn't behave, he, as an older brother, will have to use his authority to teach him a lesson!
Qin Changqing waited until his son fell asleep before quietly walking out. Lan Sinian was still waiting for him outside.
"What's wrong with the kid today?" Lan Sinian was not stupid. There was something wrong with the little guy. No, it should be said that there was something wrong with both the father and the son. But after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out why they were wrong.
"I told him a few things, and he's fine now." Qin Changqing wanted to tell Lan Sinian the truth, but how should he tell it? Should he say that he went to Earth to grow up with him during his eight years of coma, and then came back and completely forgot about him?
Qin Changqing's heart boiled with rage at the thought of this. Even if Lan Sinian was innocent, he couldn't help but vent his anger on him. Why had he waited on Earth for ten years, filled with sorrow, while this bastard was the emperor of the alien world, completely forgetting him and living happily for ten years? Why?!
He sat down next to Lan Sinian, was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "Have you really never met someone you like in your life?" If this bastard dared to say yes, he would definitely use a knife to cut off his thing tonight!
As he thought this, a fierce gleam unconsciously filled his eyes. The Emperor felt an inexplicable tingling in his back and a chill in his lower body. He had wanted to tease him, but now he dared not. He answered honestly, "No, I don't like anyone else." He really didn't like them. It's not that no one had presented him with beautiful women over the years, but no matter how beautiful they were, they seemed bland and unappealing to him. Even he himself wondered if he had some psychological problem in this regard, but he truly had no interest in it. Given this, how could the Emperor, who always had his own way, be willing to compromise himself?
It was not until he passed through the Earth and met Qin Changqing that he realized that compared with this person, all the others seemed to be a blurred background out of focus under the camera. Only this person seemed to have a circle of soft light around him, which attracted his attention like a magnet. Even if he was in the most chaotic crowd, he could find him at a glance.
The queen was quite satisfied with his performance, but he was still worried. After getting up early the next day, he went to ask Qi Feng and the others.
Qi Feng has been in the palace for many years. Not long after Lan Sinian ascended the throne, he was sent to the palace to learn to become a qualified butler.
"Well, when His Majesty first ascended the throne, some people did send beauties to serve him. However, His Majesty was very busy at that time, so he asked me to find a way to send them away. His Majesty rarely saw them." Qi Feng was also an honest man and answered whatever was asked.
The queen liked honest people the most and was quite satisfied with his answer.
"By the way, when His Majesty's father passed away, did he leave anything important for you to keep?" Qin Changqing asked again.
After hearing this, Qi Feng thought about it carefully and confirmed that he had no relevant memories, so he could only shake his head.
Qin Changqing nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"Please help me make an appointment with the princess. I want to see her for something. Let's see when she is free."
"OK."
After Qin Changqing finished giving the order, he said, "Help me pack my things. I may need to go back to Earth."
Qi Feng was a little surprised, but he still didn't say much and agreed.
When the princess received Qi Feng's communication, she thought he had something important to tell her and rushed to the palace in person.
"I'm sorry to have made the princess make an extra trip." Qin Changqing felt a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, Queen. Since you are not feeling well, it's best for me to come." The princess was very happy that the Lan family had an addition to their family, and naturally she was reluctant to let him get tired.
Qin Changqing smiled and chatted with her for a while about the children, then changed the topic to what he wanted to ask.
"Did the old majesty leave any tokens behind?" the princess asked doubtfully.
"Yes, it's a token related to Si Nian, do you have it?" Qin Changqing looked calm on the surface, but a little anxious inside.
"Is it related to His Majesty?" The princess thought for a while and finally shook her head. "No, the old Majesty passed away in a hurry. He had just woken up not long ago and was also very busy. The prince and I stayed with him before he left, but he didn't say anything." She sighed as she spoke, as if she was recalling the past.
"Okay, I understand."
After seeing off the princess, Qin Changqing thought for a long time and asked Qi Feng to take people to tidy up the entire palace and bring anything unusual to him for his inspection.
The palace built on the mountain is very huge. It takes two or three days for the servants and cleaning robots to clean it up. This is mainly because there are many exquisite and special valuable items in the palace. If any of them is broken, they cannot afford to pay for it.
…
On the other hand, because of the Queen’s kidnapping, the entry and exit inspections of the Imperial Star Customs were stricter than ever before, but even so, not much was found.
Lan Sinian's face was solemn, and he paced back and forth in the command room with his hands behind his back. Shen Hai and his men were searching for information nearby. Lan Sinian walked around and came back to look at the surveillance camera. Suddenly, he pointed at one of the people on the screen and said, "This person, show me her information."
He was referring to a woman who was dressed in a rather neutral style, but Lan Sinian recognized her at a glance. She was the woman who had chatted with Changqing when they went to look for the former Ceratopsian King Al.
However, the identity information obtained by Lan Sinian was eventually proved to have been stolen by someone, which also proved that there was definitely something wrong with the woman who stole someone else's identity information.
In the end, Shen Hai failed to stop the woman, and they didn't even see her. Lan Sinian was no longer anxious and contacted Cang Cong to help him find out the news.
※
Qin Changqing planned to return to Earth. Given his current state of mind, he would definitely leave without telling Lan Sinian. However, his current status was different, so he couldn't act recklessly. In the end, he told him in advance.
"Now? No, it's too dangerous." Lan Sinian frowned at his request, which was rare.
Qin Changqing took a deep breath and tried to discuss it calmly with him. "General Luo told me that someone is conducting human experiments on Earth. I'm a little worried that it's related to mania. Also, I suspect the Snake Clan had other motives when they invaded Earth."
Lan Sinian frowned tightly. This was not impossible. Fang had contact with the mastermind behind the scenes, and it was not impossible for the Snake Clan to work for them. Their invasion of the earth might be because their experiments had run into difficulties, so they wanted to break through from another aspect?
But even so, Lan Sinian didn't want Qin Changqing to work so hard for this during such an important period, but he knew Qin Changqing's temper very well, so he nodded and agreed in the end.
"I don't plan to reveal my identity and go back, but I promise you, I will bring Hu Zhan and Han Hai with me." Qin Changqing paused after speaking, staring at him intently, and added, "Just them."
Lan Sinian: “…” You said so much just to leave him and go back to your parents’ home alone?
