Chapter 1574: You Are My Little Love Song (141)
In the end, Madam Yang Zhenzhen said without holding back, “Is that so? But why do I remember that when you were still in your third year of high school, our Nian Nian was so concerned about you that she chased after you every day?”
“Pfft.”
s.h.i.+ Niange almost spat out her coffee.
Qin Siting glanced at her with a smile in his eyes. s.h.i.+ Niange glared at him angrily, then looked at her mother with a sad expression. “Mom, you’re even more overboard than my father when he was trying to sell me over. Are you your biological daughter?”
Yang Zhenzhen was only amused. “Isn’t what I say true? I’m just lamenting that my daughter has good taste. At the same time, I’m reminding Little Qin that you’ve sacrificed so much, so he must treat you well”
s.h.i.+ Niange really thanked her. She didn’t want to accept this at all, all right?
It was too embarra.s.sing.
“Auntie, don’t worry. The person has already climbed to the top of my heart. I won’t let her down in this lifetime,” Qin Siting said softly, but his words were clear. Every word struck s.h.i.+ Niange’s heart.
Madam Yang Zhenzhen smiled in satisfaction. She took the coffee the waiter had brought her and raised her coffee cup at him. “Good child, I believe you.”
She did not know what was wrong with her mother today. At the end of the conversation, she suddenly mentioned s.h.i.+ Niange’s childhood. She did not even treat Qin Siting as an outsider. She kept saying that s.h.i.+ Niange really lacked the company of her parents when she was young. Although in the eyes of other children, s.h.i.+ Niange’s life was especially free, she really did not have any father or mother to love by her side. She grew up alive and kicking. She was very thankful that the people s.h.i.+ Niange met since she was young were all kind people and did not lead her astray.
s.h.i.+ Niange remembered that her mother was not a person who liked to be emotional. She rarely spoke about these things. She wondered what was wrong with her today. Could it be that she suddenly discovered that there was a boy who might take her daughter away, so she could not help but say a few more words?
Today was the weekend. The school only had an experimental cla.s.s in the morning. There was nothing much to do in the afternoon. There was no need to return to school. She could go home directly.
Coincidentally, Qin Siting received a call. There was something the Qin family needed him to do. He sent s.h.i.+ Niange and her mother to the car and watched their car drive away safely before leaving.
After s.h.i.+ Niange and her mother returned home, she finally understood why her mother had been so emotional recently. It turned out that the daughter of one of her former best friends had recently gotten married and had been married to a place far away. She didn’t have the opportunity to meet her usually. Therefore, her mother was thinking that she didn’t have much time to accompany her in the past. When she thought about how she wouldn’t have the opportunity to see her after she grew up and got married, was she starting to regret not accompanying her growing up?
s.h.i.+ Niange really did not hold any obsession or grudges against these things. She only thought that her mother was in her menopause and had begun to become sensitive and easily agitated.
However, in the afternoon, her father returned from the company. When he saw her at home, he did not have a good expression. When he heard that the mother and daughter went to see Qin Siting in the afternoon, he glared at his wife several times in anger. Madam Yang Zhenzhen could not be bothered with him.
However, after Father s.h.i.+ went home and drank two cups of tea, his anger subsided after a while. He said that he had to return to America the day after tomorrow. Recently, the financial crisis in America has affected many partners. It also indirectly affected the time when s.h.i.+da Group successfully listed in America. It was possible that they had to return to America to focus on the listing. If the listing was delayed, many things had to be redistributed. s.h.i.+ Niange did not understand these things, but when she heard her parents sitting there chatting, she was mentally prepared. They would probably not be able to return for a long time.
Since her parents were leaving again, Grandfather Mo took some time in the afternoon to come to Lishui Villa. The family gathered together, and it seemed to be much more lively than during the Spring Festival.
Initially, her mother wanted to mention Qin Siting. After all, she knew that Qin Siting was now her grandfather’s favorite student. However, s.h.i.+ Niange reminded her that her grandfather still did not know about the relations.h.i.+p between Qin Siting and her. She said that she was afraid that her grandfather would make things difficult for Qin Siting. The originally normal learning environment would become even harsher because of her matters. Madam Yang Zhenzhen considered that s.h.i.+ Niange was right and did not say much. However, she would occasionally inquire about Qin Siting from her grandfather. When she saw that Professor Yang, who was especially picky about people, praised Qin Siting repeatedly, she felt more at ease. From time to time, she gave s.h.i.+ Niange a look as though she was praising her good taste.
s.h.i.+ Niange sat there happily. As she listened to her parents and grandfather chat, she lowered her head and secretly looked at her phone.
Her phone was currently displaying Qin Siting’s reply: [Still in the Qin family. Returning to Lishui Villa tonight.]
She sent: [Why did you suddenly return to the Qin family? That person from j.a.pan didn’t come to cause trouble again, did he?]
Qin Siting replied: [No, it has nothing to do with them. It’s Grandfather who is looking for me. Don’t worry.]
It seemed like the incident with Yamamoto and Mrs. Qin would no longer affect the Qin family’s life.
Mrs. Qin should have let go of her son. After all, no matter how much she refused to let go, Qin Siting would never accompany her to j.a.pan.
She chatted with her grandfather and the rest for the entire afternoon. When the sky turned dark, her grandfather left. Then, Madam Yang Zhenzhen and her father nagged at s.h.i.+ Niange about many things. For example, what kind of people were lacking in the family’s company now. They said that s.h.i.+ Niange’s medical studies were really at odds with the family’s business, but there was no other way. They were really worried that in the future, when they were old, they wouldn’t have anyone to inherit them. After working hard for so many years, in the end, their hard work would end up in someone else’s hands. Her mother was very open-minded. She didn’t mention this. It was because her father had drunk too much in the afternoon and kept nagging. In the end, he was chased back to his room by Madam Yang Zhenzhen to sleep.
At night, s.h.i.+ Niange laid in her bedroom. As her mother did not come to her room to stay tonight, she quietly pulled open the curtains and looked across the other villa.
The lights in the villa opposite had yet to be turned on, which meant that Qin Siting had yet to return.
Before her parents returned, she and Qin Siting had agreed not to close the curtains. She opened the curtains wide and sat by the window to pick up her phone to send him a message: [You’re not back yet?]
Qin Siting did not reply for several minutes.
s.h.i.+ Niange didn’t know if he was busy with other things in the Qin family, but she sighed in disappointment. She didn’t know what to ask, but she wanted him to know how unhappy she was that he hadn’t returned. She thought for a moment and sent a string of ellipses.
This time, Qin Siting quickly replied: [Open the door.]
s.h.i.+ Niange was stunned. She looked at her phone for a few seconds and immediately stood up to rush out. She saw that her parents had already returned to their room to sleep. There was no one in the living room downstairs. She ran downstairs softly and opened the door to see Qin Siting standing outside her villa. She could tell that he had just returned. When he saw her opening the door and looking at him with dark eyes, he smiled. “Miss me?”
