The cold night was bone-chilling.
When Qiu Tong and Qiu Rong reached the villa, they saw Qiu Xingyuan, Qiu Xingqiao and the rest waiting outside with flashlights in their hands.
When Qiu Xingyu saw the car driving into the courtyard, she ran over and waved her arms as she shouted, “Mommy!”
Shao An slowed the car down. Ye Luan carried Qiu Xingyu to a safe area.
Qiu Tong saw that the children’s faces were red from the cold. Clearly, they had been waiting for them outside for a long time.
When Ke Le received the news, he pushed over the wheelchair that he had prepared earlier and let Qiu Rong sit in it. He scratched his head and explained, “When Boss called, they were all eavesdropping. I advised them to wait in the house, but they refused.”
Qiu Xingyu sniffed and threw herself into Qiu Rong’s arms. “I miss Grandpa so much. I wanted to see Grandpa as soon as possible!”
She bumped against Qiu Rong’s wounded arm and he instinctively winced.
Qiu Xingyuan could tell that something was wrong and hurriedly pulled her off. “Grandpa seems to be injured. Be careful!”
Qiu Tong urged the whole family to return to the villa. Qiu Rong narrowed his eyes as he sized up the building that resembled a base in the mountains.
Countless sentries were hidden along the mountain road. Guards with real guns numbered in the hundreds. The glass windows of the villa were all bulletproof. According to the construction blueprint, there was also a basement that could withstand missile attacks. Qiu Tong had raised three children on her own. How did she manage to arrange all this?
Qiu Rong sized up Shao An with a scrutinizing gaze. It was obvious that he was from the army and had a high status.
When he was at the hospital, he could talk to the warden directly. The warden was also very respectful to him.
Qiu Rong thought of everything that had happened previously. Just as he was about to ask, the door to the villa opened. Jin Yang appeared in his line of sight. The guards behind him were carrying the unconscious prison guard. “Bring him to the basement and stand guard over him.”
After giving his instructions, Jin Yang walked to Qiu Tong’s side and gently held her hand. He greeted Qiu Rong. “Hello, Uncle Qiu.”
Qiu Rong widened his eyes. Although he had guessed that Qiu Tong had some dealings with Jin Yang, he didn’t expect their relationship to be so intimate!
Qiu Xingyu didn’t notice the tense atmosphere. She hugged Jin Yang’s leg coquettishly and looked up innocently. “Grandpa is moving in too. Our whole family is reunited! Uncle Jin Yang’s body is so cold! I will warm you up!”
Qiu Xingyu held Jin Yang’s large palm with her chubby hands. Qiu Rong’s emotions were indescribably plicated.
He frowned as he sized up Qiu Tong and Jin Yang.
Qiu Tong thought for a moment and explained, “We encountered some trouble and have to stay here for the time being. Jin Yang and I are husband and wife now. There have been many things that happened between us that I can’t explain to you in just a few words.”
Married?!
Qiu Rong was so agitated that he slammed the armrest of his wheelchair. He pointed at Jin Yang and said, “How can the president marry a civilian?”
“Tongtong, he’s definitely lying to you! Jin Tao… why would his family accept you?”
Qiu Rong was in a fluster. Jin Yang looked at him suspiciously and inquisitively.
Why did he feel that Qiu Rong knew him and Jin Tao very well?
Jin Yang had his doubts but didn’t express them in public. Instead, he tightened his grip on Qiu Tong’s hand. “Uncle Qiu, my feelings for her are serious. Please don’t worry.”
Qiu Rong was abnormally angry and wanted to separate Jin Yang and Qiu Tong. When Qiu Xingyu saw Qiu Rong’s face had turned red from anger, she ran to his side with sparkling eyes. “Grandpa, don’t be angry! I will care for you. Your wound will recover soon.”
“Uncle Jin Yang treats Mommy and us very well! I like him a lot. Grandpa, don’t hate him, okay?”
Qiu Xingyu was very sensitive and considerate. She could feel Qiu Rong’s dislike for Jin Yang.
She pouted and shook Qiu Rong’s arm ingratiatingly. She also gestured to Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao to help.
They surrounded Qiu Rong with awkward expressions and deliberately talked about other topics to distract him.
Clanging sounds came from the kitchen. Ye Luan walked out clumsily with two bowls of ginger soup.
He looked at Qiu Rong with bright eyes and handed him the ginger soup. “Grandpa Qiu, have some to warm your stomach. Auntie Qiu, you too…”
Qiu Rong looked at Ye Luan’s eyes, which were very similar to his old friend. He touched his head with reddened eyes. “Good child, you’ve suffered! Your father often told me about you. You’re his greatest pride in life!”
“He said that you have astonishing talent in biology. He mentioned to me many times that he wants you to join this profession.”
Qiu Rong had been in prison for many years and guessed that Ye Luan’s father must have already passed away. He looked at the boy with even more pity and love.
When Ye Luan heard his words, he finally couldn’t control his emotions. He hugged Qiu Rong and wailed.
“Grandpa Qiu, I miss him so much. I miss my father so much…”
Qiu Tong and Jin Yang stood by the side.. When they saw that Ye Luan had finally let down his guard and revealed his inner thoughts, they couldn’t help being moved to tears too.
