Song Jianing was three years older than Song Zhiqiu. They had been getting along well with each other since childhood. Song Jianing always cared for Song Zhiqiu, especially when they were studying abroad.
They went to Britain to study from senior high to university. Song Zhiqiu got her bachelor's degree at the University of Cambridge and then went back to China because she didn't like living abroad and her mother had a condition in those days. Song Jianing got his bachelor's degree at the Imperial College and then got an MBA at London Business School. When they studied abroad, they had to look after each other. That was why their relationship was special.
As for what had happened two years ago, most members of the Song family were against Song Zhiqiu marrying Qin Sheng. Song Jianing, however, firmly supported her; though he preferred that his cousin would choose someone good enough for her in order to win her a better position in the Song family. Besides,
Since Song Jianing knew that Qin Sheng had come to Tsingtao, he would not let Qin Sheng leave so easily. As for what had happened previously, Qin Sheng had to explain it to him; otherwise, he would not suck it up. From now on, this issue was no longer under Song Zhiqiu's charge. Instead, Song Jianing would take care of it. The Song family hated Qin Sheng to the core. Consequently, after the Song family received Song Jianing's call, they sent many people over soon after. It did not occur to Song Zhiqiu that the situation would get out of her control. She did not know what she should do. However, she simply could not let her cousin take Qin Sheng away. If so, the seniors in her family definitely would not spare Qin Sheng. Consequently, Song Zhiqiu begged as she said, "Brother, don't do this. Kindly let him go. I already let go of the issues that happened before." As Song Jianing knew that Song Zhiqiu had been with Qin Sheng over
In No. 8 on Laiyang Road, putting aside how amazing the security guarding in this kind of luxurious mansion and villa quarter was, the surveillance cameras, which were seen everywhere, were enough to make people flinch. Besides, at this moment, there were many bodyguards of the Song family in Song Jianing's villa. Consequently, it was not easy for Zhuang Zhou and Nan Gong to enter the villa easily. Though they had exerted great effort to sneak into the quarter, they had no choice but to fight for an opportunity outside Song Jianing's villa. At this moment, they received a call from Gongsun. After Zhuang Zhou finished talking with Gongsun over the phone, he frowned as he said to Nan Gong, who was by his side, "Gongsun and Qin Ran are on their way to Tsingtao." The look in his eyes was thoughtful. He had figured out the reason why Gongsun and Qin Ran would be here soon, which was that Qin Changan finally had made up his mind to reconcile with Qin Sheng and
It was Song Jianing's father who had called him. After the Old Master passed away, the whole Song family was under the charge of Song Jianing's father. His Second Uncle was in Jinan and his Third Uncle was in Tianjin, both on business. All the in-laws of his two aunts came from wealthy families. Consequently, his two uncles were both government officials. Besides, the Song family in Beijing was influential and the Song family in Shandong had powerful connections in Northeastern China. Besides, originally, they were old and well-known families. Consequently, Song Jianing dared not disobey his father's order at all. Otherwise, he would be punished in the future, which had happened previously. As a result, he had no choice but to lock Qin Sheng up and waited for his father and his Second Uncle tomorrow, who would hold a discussion first before making up their minds. Two bodyguards supported Qin Sheng and took him into a guest room. Originally, Song Zhiqiu ha
In winter, the fog was rarely seen in the coastal cities, which was unlike those inland cities, especially those with a poor geographical environment. As a result, whenever winter came, it would be the busiest time of the year for the southern coastal cities, especially many cities like Hainan. Somebody even jokingly called Sanya a special administrative region of the three provinces in Northeastern China. However, though the rich could go to the south to pass the winter days, the ordinary had no choice but to put up with the fog. Besides, the gap between the rich and the poor became wider and wider, making the contradictory conditions more and more obvious. As a coastal city in the north, the winter in Tsingtao was somewhat cold. However, at least it was not foggy at all, which could be counted as a blessing. If the weather were much better, it would be much more comfortable, which was true for the weather over the past few days. Today was
There are always some things in life that are very strange. They would definitely not go the way you planned. Instead, if you do not want things to go a certain way, that would be exactly what happens. Usually, this is how miracles happen. Many people seek the root of this problem, yet in the end, they could not pinpoint if it is a psychological or scientific problem. At this moment, this was exactly the case for the Song family. Standing in the villa's living room, Qin Ran fell into a deep silence after saying those words. Other than the family members who already knew this fact, the rest were so shocked that they took a long time to process it. The impossible became a fact. This was something that they could not believe at all. Qin Sheng, the young man whom they had done a thorough background check on in the beginning, was actually Qin Changan's son? How could that be? Who was Qin Changan? He was the unseen big shot in Sijiu
There were people coming in and out of the hotel entrance. Qin Ran's crying had attracted lots of attention. Seeing such a beautiful lady crying, anyone would pity her. It was just that no one stepped forward to disturb them. When Qin Ran first met Qin Sheng, she only dared to tear up silently, as she had promised Qin Changan that she would not reconcile with Qin Sheng and did not want to arouse his suspicion. This time around, Qin Ran finally did not need to care about anything else. She no longer needed to hide behind Qin Sheng and look at him silently. She no longer needed to worry about him and yet feel helpless that she could not do anything to help him. She no longer needed to sob secretly at night or when she was alone. From today onward, from this moment on, the separation of more than 20 years had finally ended. From this moment on, she could blatantly tell everyone that this was her younger brother, her biological younger brother. In the future,
From the moment when Qin Sheng could start to remember things until now, he was always so sure that he had no other relatives than his grandfather. Although he did ask him before, he never talked about things from the past. Qin Sheng thought that he did not want to recall those unhappy memories. After all, there were many orphans in the world but most of them were caused by tragedies. It was very cruel to cause an old person to recall those unhappy memories, so Qin Sheng never asked again. But today, Qin Ran, this woman whom he had only met a few times, suddenly appeared before him and told him that he was not an orphan; he had an older sister and a father. It really broke the social constructs that Qin Sheng had for all these years. Of course Qin Sheng's mind was full of doubts. First, he had to make sure if this was real. If it was not, then there was nothing else to talk about. If it was real, then he had so many questions.
Gongsun the main butler had already made a call to the hotel staff to arrange a private room. Qin Ran led Qin Sheng towards the Chinese restaurant in the hotel and did not let the others follow them. Firstly, she was worried that Qin Sheng might feel uncomfortable with it. Secondly, she wanted to spend time with him alone. Otherwise, they would not get any closer. Handsome lads and beautiful ladies were always the center of attention wherever they went. When Qin Sheng and Qin Ran appeared in the Chinese restaurant, they did garner quite the attention. Qin Ran was an extremely beautiful woman with a good temperament, so even if her younger brother was ugly, he would not be too ugly at all. After all, there were the family genes. Besides, Qin Sheng was really not ugly, although he was not exactly dashing. He just had a very unique charm. It was an advantage that men of his age did not have. The private room was too suppressing. On top of that, they were alo
