The strongest counterattack

Qin Ran nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, then you sleep for a while, and I'll call you when we arrive."

After Qin Sheng fell asleep, Qin Ran ordered the stewardess to bring a blanket and covered Qin Sheng himself...

After more than an hour, the Gulfstream g650 landed at the Capital International Airport. Gongsun had already arranged everything, and the two Mercedes-Benz of the Qin family were already waiting on the tarmac.

When Qin Sheng woke up, he found that his body was covered with a gray blanket. Of course he knew who covered him. It was estimated that she was the one who covered him when he was in the hotel, so Qin Sheng looked at Qin Ran and said sincerely, "Thank you. "

Qin Sheng is still not used to this new identity, so he is a little strange to Qin Ran, and he does not have the intimacy between siblings, but he knows that this sister is sincerely treating him well, and he will keep these in his heart.

After getting in the car, the two Mercedes-Benz drove away from the airport. Gongsun had already finished making the phone call, and turned around to ask, "Your father has a social event tonight, and he is drinking tea and chatting with the leaders of the Ministry of Commerce and the SAFE. Didn't go back. It's so late, shall we go back to the courtyard first?"

This was a daily conversation between Gongsun and Qin Ran, and they didn't hide it just because Qin Sheng was there, but when Qin Sheng heard it, he was shocked at first, followed by more doubts.

From the doubts at the beginning, then the fear of the Song family, followed by the most advanced Gulfstream private jet worth [-] million, and then chatting and laughing with the leaders of the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Ministry of Commerce, Qin Sheng became more and more fond of this father. Curious, this identity is really mysterious.

Qin Ran thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go to the old house first."

This was Qin Ran's plan, but it was too late to come back today, Qin Sheng obviously wanted to see Qin Changan first, so she didn't plan to take Qin Sheng to the old house directly, but now Qin Changan has not come back, so she still He planned to take Qin Sheng back to the old house first.

Because for her, that is the real home, where she, Qin Sheng and her mother shared memories, and there was nothing in that courtyard that belonged to them.

"En." Gongsun nodded silently, as he expected, and then told the driver to go directly to West Chang'an Street.

The Qin family’s old house is on the Muxidi side of Xichang Street, next to Yuyuantan and Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. The area is called Sanli River, and it is surrounded by ministries and their families. The neighborhood used to be called the Planning Commission compound. If you are familiar with it Anyone with a history of old Beijing knows that it is a magical place.The most famous one is the Hongta Auditorium of the Planning Commission, which ranked first among the four major auditoriums in old Beijing. The other three are Geology, Material and CPPCC.

Of course, this is not the most amazing place in the Planning Commission compound. The most amazing thing is that 21 deputy prime ministers and state councilors, more than 200 ministers and vice ministers, and countless celebrities from all walks of life have come out of this place. This is where he is legendary.

It's just that when the sign of the Planning Commission was taken off, the legend of this place ended. Now it is already dilapidated, most of the places have been reclassified as a key, and the dilapidated courtyards are only lived by some nostalgic or old people. Retired old people, most of the young people have left here, and only come back occasionally on weekends.

The four members of the Qin family lived here back then. Of course, there is no Mr. Qin.It's just that many friends of the Qin family also live here. This is the foundation of Qin Chang'an's fortune. If there were no legends here, there would be no Qin Chang'an today.

After the two cars drove into the compound, they turned around and turned and finally stopped at a building in No. [-] courtyard. Because the planning committee compound was very large back then, it was an independent world with everything you should have, so it was designated It has become several small courtyards.

In the middle of winter night, under the yellow street lamps, these old houses make people feel a little flustered.

Everyone got out of the car one after another, Qin Ran raised his head to look at the red six-story building, the corners of his mouth subconsciously turned up, all the memories of her childhood were here.

"Just wait downstairs." Qin Ran instructed the others. This is her private space belonging to the Qin family, and she doesn't want to be disturbed by outsiders.

Qin Sheng frowned slightly. He knew that this was definitely not the Qin family, and the father with a mysterious identity would definitely not live here. After all, this place is very old, so he asked, "Where is this?"

Qin Ran narrowed his eyes and smiled, "This is our home, which is where you lived when you were young."

"Home?" Qin Sheng murmured to himself, this word was both familiar and unfamiliar to him, because he never had a real home.

"En." Qin Ran nodded, then turned around and looked up at the familiar house, and said with a faint smile, "Mom, I brought my brother back."

Chapter 347 Sister Don't Cry

As people grow older, those memories of the past will gradually be forgotten, especially those memories of childhood, which will become less and less clear as they get older, but some memories will become memory fragments and be sealed deep in the brain , Only when you return to the familiar environment, the past will reappear. I believe many people have this experience.

When Qin Sheng returned to this very familiar place when he was a child for the first time in more than 20 years, the fragments of those deep memories burst out instantly and began to appear in his mind. The strange place began to become familiar, giving him a feeling of déjà vu a feeling of.

What's more, when Qin Sheng was taken away from Beijing by the old man, it was the time when the child started to remember things. Those memories had been deeply buried, and he would definitely not be able to recall them if he forced himself to think about them.

Before Qin Ran opened his mouth, Qin Sheng felt that this place was a bit familiar. When Qin Ran said that this is our home, Qin Sheng lost his mind and muttered to himself.

Qin Sheng looked at the surrounding environment in some confusion. For some reason, his head hurts, and his memory is getting more and more, but it always disappears in a flash.He wanted to try his best to capture it, and then put it together into a complete picture, but no matter how hard he tried, it made him a little annoyed.

It's just that Qin Ran didn't pay attention to Qin Sheng at this time, she was still staring at that familiar place, ever since her mother passed away and her younger brother left them to move, Qin Ran had been here countless times, and every time she was alone.Sometimes she would come over suddenly in the middle of the night, sometimes when she was in a bad mood, and she would come over every year, festival or mother's birthday or death.

Because here is the only memory belonging to their family of four, after leaving here, there is nothing left.So no matter how bad Qin Ran's mood was, she would always be very calm whenever she came here.

It's just that she doesn't know how to face her mother every time she comes here, because she is afraid that her mother will ask her: Ran Ran, have you found your brother?She knew that for more than 20 years, her mother must have been worried about her younger brother, and hoped that their family could be reunited as soon as possible. Today, she finally got her wish, and she will no longer have any psychological burden.

When Qin Ran came back to his senses, he found that Qin Sheng's eyes were absent, his face was pale, and his brows were frowning in pain, Qin Ran quickly supported Qin Sheng and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Sheng waved his hands and said, "I'm fine, can we go up?"

Qin Sheng seemed to know that it was because he didn't have enough memories, so he couldn't piece it together. He was eager to go up and see the place where he stayed when he was a child, because if it was really the place where he was when he was a child, there must be more memories reappearing. , when the time comes, he will definitely remember those things when he was a child.

"Okay." Qin Ran nodded, and then supported Qin Sheng to go towards the entrance of the corridor. The others did not follow, but just waited below. This will be the time for this pair of siblings. Can Qin Sheng remember what happened when he was a child? , it seems to be here.

The two walked slowly into the corridor. The yellowed tungsten lamps had long been replaced by voice-activated LED lamps, but the rest of the place hadn't changed at all. Qin Ran led Qin Sheng up the stairs step by step, and at the same time Talking about those things when he was young, such as who lived in this family before, who were the children in their family, and what kind of relationship he had with them, especially Qin Sheng's childhood playmates, Qin Ran will focus on introducing them.

Finally arrived at the floor where Qin's family was located. There were two families on this floor. Before Qin Ran could say which one was theirs, Qin Sheng subconsciously walked towards the one on the left.Because his mind had drifted out of previous memories, he knew that behind this rusted iron security door was their home that Qin Ran had mentioned.

Qin Ran was stunned. She didn't know whether Qin Sheng remembered things from his childhood or guessed randomly, but she hoped it was the former.So she walked over impatiently, slowly opened the two doors with the key under Qin Sheng's gaze, and then walked in first and turned on the lights.

Although this room has not been lived in for many years, it is still very clean, but it smells a little dusty. An old aunt in the community comes to clean it every week. It is an old friend of her mother. She used to live with her mother. The relationship is very good, as close as sisters.

As for the furnishings in the room, etc., they are all exactly the same as they were back then, and I have not been moved at all, but there are various photos on the wall, all of which are photos of their family of four. There are fathers, mothers, younger brothers, and hers. , Whenever she sees these photos, she will smile happily.

When she was ignorant before, she didn't know why her father never came here. She thought that her father was too busy or liked the new and hated the old, but she didn't understand until she became sensible.Because this is not only her memory, but also her father's memory. The reason why my father moved out of here was because of the accident that year.

She lost her mother and brother, and her father also lost her wife and son. She couldn't help but want to come back to see her, and sometimes she broke down and burst into tears.And Dad never came back, because these familiar scenes will also make Dad emotionally broken. Here is his wife and the memory of his son, but he is a man that many people in Sijiu City look up to. He does not want to be emotionally disturbed. Even if he is defeated, he can't reveal a little bit of flaws, only in this way can he move forward with a heavy load, without fear of any enemies and setbacks.

Because his name is Qin Chang'an, he is a man of the Qin family and the pillar of the Qin family.

Qin Ran knew that her father had women outside, and there were more than one, but she never talked about it, because her father was a normal man, she could understand, and because no woman had ever stepped into the Qin family's gate, this is her father The bottom line for her is even more doting on her.

Sometimes when he is in a good mood or too busy to come here for a long time, Qin Ran will come over and sit quietly on the sofa, listening to Li Ronghao's old street, recalling those things when he was a child, with a faint smile on his face. Smiling, he fell asleep without knowing it.

After Qin Ran came in, he kept thinking about these things, and seemed to have forgotten about Qin Sheng who was following behind.But he didn't know that when Qin Sheng stepped into the room, he seemed to be a completely different person.Looking at everything in front of him dully, all the memories began to reappear. There were more and more memories in his mind, and more and more familiar pictures, like replaying an old movie with a long history.When he saw the family portrait hanging on the wall, Qin Sheng trembled like an electric shock, staring at the woman in the yellowed family portrait.

The background of the photo is an old courtyard. There are several trees and many flowers and plants in the courtyard. The season seems to be summer, because they are wearing summer clothes. The time should be in the afternoon, and the sun is not so glaring. .A little girl in front of the woman is holding the hand of a little boy. The two children are smiling brightly. A handsome man is standing beside her.

Women are very beautiful, even in this age of makeup and plastic surgery, they can be said to be amazing beauties in the world.She was wearing a white dress, her black hair was tied up casually, the corners of the skirt were slightly raised, and the hair was a little messy but charming.Thin cheeks, neither fat nor thin.The high bridge of the nose goes straight up to the sky, the tip of the nose is full and the wings are well-proportioned.Those eyes are the prettiest, not too big or too small, but especially smart and charming. The whites of the eyes and the pupils are as distinct as white paper and black ink. According to physiognomy, such a woman is kind and pure, not to mention her eyes are clear and bottomless. It makes people feel peaceful and peaceful.A pair of willow-leaf curved eyebrows, perfectly matched with the agile eyes, is like a match made in nature.As for the woman's height, it is obviously not low, because wearing high heels has reached the man's ear.

Such a woman, no matter what man sees, will be amazed.That demeanor is a bit otherworldly, as if it doesn't belong to this world, but it is very integrated with this world.

Qin Sheng just stood like that, staring like that, at some point his eyes became blurred and then wet, and then the tears overflowed from the frame, and then flowed down to the corner of the mouth and chin, but he couldn't stop it, like a teardrop opened. Faucet.

Qin Sheng just shed tears silently, without speaking or making a sound, letting his tears be unscrupulous, as if time stood still at this moment.

why?

Because Qin Sheng has already recognized who the woman in the photo is. It is the woman he has dreamed about countless times in his dreams, but every time he can only see a vague appearance, but no matter how hard he tries, he can't see the real woman clearly.He didn't know how many times he chased after the woman's leaving back in his dream, and then shouted out those two: Mom.

Yes, she is the woman in the dream, she is the woman who comforts and encourages him every time in the dream, she is his mother.

"Mom" Qin Sheng finally couldn't help blurting out.

At some point, Qin Ran came back to his senses, and noticed that Qin Sheng was standing in a daze in front of the family portrait, and then silently shed tears, looking very sad.

Qin Ran was slightly taken aback, and then a happy smile appeared on her face, because she knew that Qin Sheng had recognized the family of four in the photo, because she knew that Qin Sheng had finally remembered those things from his childhood.

When he heard Qin Sheng call out that mother, Qin Ran finally couldn't help it, and burst into tears instantly.At this moment, it seems that all these years of waiting are worth it, everything is worth it.

Qin Sheng was crying while staring at the photo, Qin Ran was crying while watching Qin Sheng, her crying finally brought Qin Sheng back to his senses, Qin Sheng looked at the woman in front of him, with a slightly warm smile on the corner of his mouth.Because those memories have been found, those pictures have been pieced together, he finally believes that the woman in front of him is his sister, he finally found his long-lost relatives, and he finally returned to the home that really belongs to him .

Qin Sheng didn't wipe away his tears, because they were tears of happiness, because he was no longer an orphan, and from now on, his heart would have a port of call, and he would no longer wander around and be homeless.

Qin Sheng walked towards Qin Ran slowly, towards his sister, then stretched out his arms tremblingly, and hugged Qin Ran tightly under Qin Ran's expectant and shocked eyes, and then hugged Qin Ran in Qin Ran's ear. Bian said softly, "Sister, don't cry"

Chapter 348 Completely Gone

Sister don't cry, this sentence made Qin Ran feel like a dream, as if he returned to more than 20 years ago, every time she cried, that immature little guy always hugged her and comforted her in a tone that didn't match her age: My sister doesn't cry.

After more than 20 years, Qin Sheng finally returned to the Qin family, and he also remembered those things when he was a child. Both siblings were very excited. At this time, they were crying in their arms, but they were tears of happiness.

Even anyone who saw this scene would sigh with emotion.

Qin Ran bit her lower lip tightly, not letting herself cry out, because this was the happiest time for her in so many years.Qin Sheng took a deep breath, wiped away his tears, then hugged his sister tightly, patted her on the back, and waited for her to calm down.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Ran finally let go of Qin Sheng, wiped away his tears and broke into a smile, and then asked nervously, "Qin Sheng, do you really remember what happened when you were a child?"

Qin Sheng nodded and said truthfully, "Well, although I only remembered a little bit, I know where this is, who you are, and who the woman and man on the wall are."

Qin Ran can understand, after all, the past is too long, more than 20 years, even if it is anyone, they have almost forgotten the things when they were young, Qin Sheng must only remember a little, so she took Qin Sheng's hand and said, " It’s okay, just remember these. It’s been more than 20 years, my sister has been looking for it for more than 20 years, and today I finally brought you home. No matter what happens in the future, I will never let you leave me again, never”

Qin Sheng smiled faintly, reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of Qin Ran's eyes, turned around and looked at the woman in the photo and sighed, "Sister, I miss my mother, I often dream of her in my dreams, but I can't always see her clearly." I kept chasing her, but she ignored me anyway. I miss her, I want to see her"

The closest relative in the world is the relative of flesh and blood.

Qin Sheng finally remembered what happened when he was a child and recognized his mother, so he couldn't wait to see his mother, because he could only see her in his dreams every time, and it was still a blur.

Mom, for anyone, is extremely important, and it is irreplaceable for anyone. She is the person who gave him life, and the woman who loves him the most in the world. The meaning cannot be expressed in words. describe.

Since he arrived in Xi'an, he has no mother. At that time, he had no other relatives except his grandfather.Especially when he sees that other people's children have mothers, take them to play, and accompany them to grow up a little bit, he feels very lost, always hiding in the room and crying secretly, that kind of loneliness can only be felt by orphans we can understand.It wasn't until he arrived at the Lin family and Aunt Wang gave him maternal love that this feeling gradually faded away.Otherwise, Qin Sheng really doesn't know what he would be like now, after all, his childhood personality affects everyone's life.

"Mom?" Qin Ran, who had stopped crying, hesitated for two seconds after hearing Qin Sheng's words, and then her eyes turned red again. She resisted her emotions and said, "Come with me."

Qin Ran knew that Qin Sheng must not have remembered that his mother had passed away for many years, after all, he could only remember a few things, so he turned around and took Qin Sheng to the bedroom inside.

Qin Sheng was a little surprised, he didn't know what Qin Ran meant, but he always felt that something was wrong, so he followed Qin Ran to the inside with some trepidation.

This is the master bedroom. When Qin Ran opened the door and turned on the light, the smell of dust came over his face. There was nothing in it, except for an old table against the wall, on which there were fresh fruits. It has only been placed in the past few days, and there are incense burners and candles.

Of course, there is also the black and white photo on the wall. The woman in the photo is none other than the beautiful woman in the family portrait in the living room.The woman is still so beautiful, with a smile on her face and tenderness in her eyes.She is the mother of Qin Sheng and Qin Ran.

When Qin Sheng walked into the master bedroom and followed Qin Ran's gaze, Qin Sheng's brain went blank for just one glance, and his whole body was completely petrified there, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, his fists clenched tightly His nails dug into his flesh, staring fixedly at the photo on the wall.Of course he knew what this meant, but he really didn't expect this to happen. All his expectations were completely wiped out at this moment, gone, completely gone.

In the past, he knew that he was an orphan and had no mother, but he had imagined that if he found his biological parents one day, would he be able to see his mother.But at this moment, he knew that he didn't have a mother before, but he still had hope, but today he really doesn't have a mother, and there won't be any in the future, even hope is gone.

Heaven at one second, hell at the next, this is no longer a sense of loss, but an almost destructive blow, directly knocking down Qin Sheng who is still strong in the face of any enemy and setback at any time and in any situation.

At this moment, Qin Sheng was lost like a ghost, his eyes and face were so terrifying that no one could recognize him, and it made Qin Ran feel particularly strange, staring at Qin Sheng dumbfounded.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Sheng, who had been standing there, finally moved. He took a step slowly, walking towards the sacrificial table step by step.Every step is so heavy, every step is so difficult, every step seems to crush every hope he has had for more than 20 years.The distance of a few steps seems to be hundreds of thousands of miles, the time of a few steps seems to be as far as centuries, but the distance of a few steps is the distance between yin and yang.

When Qin Sheng finally walked around the sacrificial table, he saw this Xiaoqiang, who was like an invincible man who had walked through the gate of hell many times, suddenly knelt down on the ground with a bang, buried his head between his legs, and hugged him with both hands. Grabbing his head by his hair, he choked up almost depressingly and desperately.

Time stopped at this moment. Anyone who saw this scene would be unbearable. Qin Ran turned her back. She could no longer bear such emotions. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold on. In the end, she directly left the master bedroom and went to the living room. Leaving time for Qin Sheng to be alone with his mother, she knew that Qin Sheng must have a lot to say to his mother.

Qin Ran didn't help Qin Sheng, nor did he go to comfort Qin Sheng. For a man, sometimes he has to face some things alone. Only when he completely vents his heart will he feel better. If he suppresses it, it will be even more terrifying.

Time passed by, and I don't know how long it took. Today, Qin Sheng shed all the tears he had accumulated over the years. He felt that there was really nothing to make him cry anymore.

Still kneeling on the ground, he raised his head, stared at his mother's photo and laughed at himself, "Mom, my son is not filial, and made you wait for so many years to come back to see you. Mom, how have you been all these years? Do you miss your son? Yes, I only dream about my son every time. Mom, you know, you are more beautiful than my girlfriend. If you were by my side when I was in school, I would definitely show off to my classmates every day that I have a beautiful mother. Mom... "

At this moment, Qin Sheng is no longer the Qin Sheng with a strong inner wall. He is just a child who can’t grow up in front of his mother. For more than 20 years, he can only see his mother every time in his dreams, and he can’t say it every time. A few words will wake you up.Today he finally reunited with his mother. He has a lot of things he wants to tell his mother. He wants to tell his mother all the things he has accumulated over the past 20 years and everything that has happened.

It was the first time to be praised by the teacher, the first time to get full marks in the test, the first time to fight, the first time to hold a girl's hand, the first time to kiss a girl, the first time to fall in love, the first time to break up and so on.

Qin Sheng wanted to tell his mother everything, as if his mother was always by his side, but Qin Sheng would only tell his mother the happy things, not the sad and setbacks, because he didn't want his mother to worry .

An hour passed, and two hours later, Qin Sheng was still talking with his mother, as if his mother was standing in front of him. Sometimes he would burst into laughter while talking, and sometimes he would feel very depressed when he spoke. , People who didn't know thought Qin Sheng was crazy.

Qin Ran came to visit several times during this period, because she was really worried about Qin Sheng's state, but she didn't bother Qin Sheng, letting Qin Sheng just talk to himself

Gongsun and others downstairs have been waiting. Qin Changan asked someone to call once to ask when they would come back. Hearing that Qin Sheng and Qin Ran were at the old house, he never called again.

Three hours later, Qin Sheng finally finished all the words that should be said. His legs were already numb, and he stood up with some difficulty, and then said to his mother, "Mom, it's not too late, you should go to bed early, next time I will tell you more"

After speaking, Qin Sheng put a stick of incense on his mother, kowtowed three times, then turned and left the master bedroom.

In the living room, Qin Ran saw Qin Sheng finally come out of the master bedroom, and felt at ease in an instant, but before she could speak, Qin Sheng took the initiative to ask, "Sister, I want to sleep here tonight, is that okay?"

Qin Ran was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily and said "OK"

Chapter 349

Life is always like this, it gives you hope and disappoints you, makes you miserable, makes you physically and mentally exhausted, it seems that it is satisfied in this way.

The successive incidents during this period exhausted Qin Sheng physically and mentally. Before one incident was over, another incident followed one after another. Qin Sheng was not given a chance to breathe, as if he wanted to challenge Qin Sheng's limit.

What happened tonight tortured Qin Sheng once again, torturing this man who had suffered setbacks and vicissitudes of life, and made him bear pressure that did not meet his age.

It was a happy thing to finally meet my long-lost sister, remember my childhood, and recognize my mother who always appeared in my dreams.Qin Sheng was also looking forward to the reunion with his mother, which was the greatest expectation of an orphan, but God made a joke with him, telling him that his mother had passed away.

For Qin Sheng, this joke was a bit too big. Only Qin Sheng knew what kind of mood it was, so he knelt on the ground and cried, releasing all the pressure and grievances these days. .

The son wants to support, but the relative is not there.

Hope turned into disappointment, joy turned into sadness. If Qin Sheng's heart was not strong enough for this gap, he might have collapsed.For many people, this is sometimes the case, life doesn’t care whether you can bear it or not, no matter whether you reject, escape, sadness, anger, etc., you have to face it, and then learn to grow, become mature, vicissitudes and sophistication .

Originally, Qin Ran planned to let Qin Sheng go back to the old house. This is the place where Qin Sheng stayed when he was a child. It should help him remember the past, and also promote the relationship between their siblings.It's best if you can remember, but it's okay if you can't.Then he took Qin Sheng back to the courtyard to meet Qin Changan.

But she didn't expect that although Qin Sheng remembered the past things here, he didn't plan to leave, but wanted to stay here for one night.

Thinking of Qin Sheng's grief in front of his mother's coffin just now, Qin Ran couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. He knew that Qin Sheng must be reluctant to part with his mother and wanted to spend time with his mother, otherwise it would be impossible for him to talk to himself three times in front of his mother. Hours, like a deranged lunatic.

That's why Qin Ran agreed, it's just that no one has lived in this old house for many years, and it doesn't even have the necessary daily necessities, but this is nothing to Qin Ran.

Qin Ran said to Qin Sheng, "You rest for a while, I'll ask them to send something over."

Qin Sheng nodded. He used to be very familiar with this place. It has all his childhood memories in Beijing.Now that he came back again, he was both familiar and unfamiliar with this place. Qin Sheng had to slowly search for those memories, so he casually looked at the old house and those old photos.

Qin Ran went to the balcony and dialed Qin Changan's phone number.

Winter in Beijing is very cold, Gongsun and others have been waiting below for four hours, but fortunately they were sitting in the car. If they were outside, they would have frozen to death.It was already two o'clock in the morning, and not only Gongsun was waiting, but Qin Changan, who had already returned to the courtyard, was also waiting, waiting to meet Qin Sheng.
