Qiao Ran glared back at Zuo Chenye coldly. The meaning in his eyes was clearly that I will settle the score with you when I get back.
Zuo Chenye "cough" twice, he held An An in his arms, cleared his throat, and looked away awkwardly.
"Come in, everyone. What are you doing standing at the door?" Lin Yuyue walked out of the kitchen and greeted everyone warmly.
"Oh." Qiao Ran walked into the living room first.
In Gong Suyan's home, the living room is very large, with an open space of about three floors. Gorgeous snowflake white marble is built all the way to the ceiling. A huge modern LED chandelier hangs down several meters high. It is very majestic.
Zuo Chenye walked into the living room holding Qiao Ze'an.
At this time, Qin Nianzhen and Gong Suyan, who were a few steps behind, also walked into the living room one after another.
Qiao Ze'an lay on Zuo Chenye's shoulder. He opened his big eyes curiously and looked at the last person who walked in. He seemed to be the elder of his mother and father in age, and he looked amiable. He thought, maybe this is what Aunt Lin said.
Nagging, today’s important guest?
It was also the first time that Lin Yuyue met Qin Niuzhen. She couldn't help but take a few more curious glances, thinking that Qin Niuzhen must have been an extremely beautiful woman back then. She had a sense of eliteness that had gone through many hardships and had a clear understanding of the world, which made people feel awe-struck.
Respect.
Although Qin Nianzhen and Qiao Ran don't look alike between their eyebrows, upon closer inspection, they have similar temperaments.
"Hello, Aunt Qin." Lin Yuyue took the initiative to say hello.
"You are Leng Ning's daughter-in-law? Haha, you are cute, lively and generous. Leng Ning is so lucky!" Qin Ninzhen looked at Lin Yuyue with a smile. She had gone to Leng's house to get the wedding invitation in person. It turned out that the smart girl in front of her
The girl is Gong Suyan’s future wife.
"Ah... we are actually not married yet." Lin Yuyue was a little embarrassed, her cheeks slightly red.
She scratched her hair and said, "I'm going to cook. I waited until everyone was here before I cooked the hot dishes. Everyone, please wait a moment. Dinner will be ready soon!" After saying that, she quickly turned around and went to the kitchen.
Qin Nianzhen walked up to Qiao Ze'an, with a genuine smile on his face and a sweet feeling in his heart.
This is her biological grandson, the third generation she has longed for. After experiencing the failure of finding her daughter again, not only did her wish come true, but her grandson is now this big. What an unexpected surprise.
She was so excited that she didn't know what to say in front of her children for the first time.
Just as Zuo Chenye was about to speak, he introduced Qin Nianzhen to Qiao Ze'an and asked Qiao Ze'an to call her grandma.
Qin Nianzhen put a finger to his lips, signaling Zuo Chenye not to speak.
She looked at Qiao Ze'an with a smile and asked.
"Kid, what's your name?"
Qiao Ze'an looked at her politely and said, "Hello, my name is Qiao Ze'an, and these are my mommy and dad. Who are you?"
Zuo Chenye simply put Qiao Zean down.
Qin Nianzhen squatted down slowly. She stretched out her slightly trembling hands and held Qiao Ze'an's arm. Her eyes were filled with gentle light, "I am the person closest to you. Who do you think I will be?"
Qiao Ze'an pouted, looked at Qiao Ran, then at Zuo Chenye, and then looked at Qin Nianzhen again.
Qiao Ran said "cough" twice, "I'm going to help in the kitchen. Yuyue can't do it alone."
After saying that, she turned and walked into the kitchen. She could not see such a touching scene of recognition, and felt that her eyes were already wet. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would lose control in front of everyone.
Qiao Ze'an thought for a while, narrowed his eyes, and shouted in a clear childish voice, "Hello, grandma!"
Qin Nian was really stunned.
Although she expected Qiao Ze'an to guess it, when Qiao Ze'an really called her grandma, she was overjoyed but couldn't react.
Gong Suyan secretly marveled. Although he heard that Qiao Ze'an had a high emotional and IQ, it was still shocking to see him with his own eyes.
He knelt down and asked curiously, "Did Aunt Lin tell you?"
Qiao Ze'an shook his head, "No. Aunt Lin only said that an important person is coming today."
"So, An'an, how did you guess it?" Zuo Chenye touched Qiao Ze'an's head.
Qin Ninzhen also looked at Qiao Ze'an with a moved expression.
"Yes. I analyzed it myself." Qiao Ze'an said seriously, "The way grandma looked at me was very different. It was just like the way dad looked at me back then. Moreover, I think dad's expression today is normal, but it's mommy.
There’s something wrong with her expression. I think it must be mommy’s relatives that make mommy behave like this.”
Qiao Xian raised his head thoughtfully, "So, mommy's mommy is grandma, right?"
"Yes. Smart!" Qin Nianzhen smiled, and the smile extended to the tips of his eyes.
"I'm grandma. What should I do when grandma sees you for the first time? I'm in a hurry today and I didn't bring any gifts." Qin Nianzhen frowned and asked in distress.
"Grandma, you yourself are the biggest gift." Qiao Ze'an answered very cleverly, "I am so happy today. Not only do I have a father, but I also have a grandma. I will never be alone again."
Qin Nianzhen had been holding back her emotions since she entered the house. At this moment, she suddenly couldn't hold it back anymore.
My good self-control suddenly collapsed. I thought that at such an old age, I would not shed tears easily. Unexpectedly, my tears fell again without warning.
She took a deep breath and moved Qiao Ze'an into her arms, "Grandma, do you mind if I hug you?"
"Yes." Qiao Ze'an nodded, and he nestled obediently in Qin Nianzhen's arms.
Gong Suyan and Zuo Chenye both walked to the window knowingly, leaving the tender moment to this pair of grandparents and grandchildren who had gone through hardships and met for the first time.
"Not only does An An have a very high IQ, but he also has an unexpectedly higher emotional intelligence. He is really good at talking. It's hard to imagine that he is a child less than four years old." Gong Suyan lamented, "Although there is still a long way to go before we can regain the power of the warlord and rescue Xia Shengting.
There is still a long way to go. But in any case, we have achieved the first stage of success."
"Yes. The reason why An An knows how to read people's faces and has a sensitive and delicate mind is not because of me. Ever since he was born, he has followed Qiao Ran around the world, and Qiao Ran has to hide his true appearance. It has not been easy for them these years. It's all because of me.
It's my fault." Zuo Chenye sighed and blamed himself.
Gong Suyan patted Zuo Chenye on the shoulder.
"Let the past go. The road ahead is still long and not easy."
"Yeah." Zuo Chen stared out the window at night.
Under the dark night, the lake surface is sparkling, the cold wind blows, and the shadows of the trees are swaying.
It is foreseeable that the road ahead will be more difficult, and he still needs to plan carefully.
