Chapter 23: Returning Home

A week later, He Mutian came to the United States in person, looking at his weak and haggard daughter, He Mutian's eyes were full of distress and self-blame, but because the father and daughter had been estranged for a long time, he didn't know how to comfort her, but took her away from the United States as quickly as possible.

Soon after Wang Xiaolei married into the Qin family, He Mutian, who got the news, hurried to the United States, that day happened to be the birthday of late autumn, in order to make up for his neglect of his daughter, he gave her a luxury apartment in the ** city under his name.

After returning to **, he directly brought Wanqiu back to the apartment, and Wanqing had been waiting anxiously over there.

Seeing the late autumn, Wanqing suddenly held her in her arms, with tears on her face: "Thank God, you finally came back safely, I heard that you were kidnapped in the United States, and I was scared to death." ”

I finally felt the real care and warmth from my loved ones, the despair, pain, and sadness that had been suppressed in my heart were like a flood breaking through the floodgates, and all the brains were vented out, and the late autumn hugged the evening sunshine, and finally sobbed lowly.

He Mutian watched the two sisters hug each other, his heart was sour, and there were tears in his eyes.

After a long time, when the emotions of the two sisters calmed down, He Mutian said to Wanqing: "Dad has finished smoking cigarettes, can you go downstairs and buy me a pack?"

"I..." Wanqing looked at her father inexplicably, her father had so many assistants, wouldn't it be nice to find someone to buy a pack and send it up? Why did she go to buy it herself, especially when she just woke up in late autumn, she didn't want to leave at all, but her father's gaze was solemn, and she didn't allow her to refuse at all.

In desperation, Wanqing gently shook Wanqiu's hand and asked softly, "Are you hungry?"

Late Autumn didn't feel particularly hungry, but she knew that her father was deliberately supporting her sister and wanted to talk to her alone, and she also had a lot of questions accumulating, and she just wanted to get answers quickly, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I haven't eaten beef pho for a long time." ”

Seeing that although her sister was sick, her appetite was not diminished, Wanqing was finally relieved, patted her sister's hand with a smile, and said dotingly: "Okay, you wait a minute, I'll be back soon." ”

After Wanqing left, He Mutian sat on the sofa, there was silence, and for a long time, He Mutian hesitated and said: "... I didn't tell your sister about you. ”

Late autumn was stunned for a moment, and then understood what the "thing" in his father's mouth meant, and smiled bitterly: "That's good, this kind of thing, why do you have to publicize it everywhere?"

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt that it was wrong, and her photo had already been published in the magazine, although my sister has been **, but now the network information is very developed, if that incident is in a uproar in the United States, ** will also get the news here.

He Mutian saw his daughter's doubts and hurriedly explained: "... That magazine, though it published your... Some photos, but because of the prestige and status of the Qin family, I never dared to publish your name, although some of the information in the magazine alluded to that person was you, but the magazine was recycled the day after it was released, and all the messages on the Internet about this matter were also seized by the Internet Supervision Department, so in the United States, there are actually very few people who know about your affairs, and your sister has been staying in **, and she doesn't know about it..."

I see...

Oh, it's funny to think about, in the past few months, she has been like a turtle, hiding herself in a turtle shell, and has been terrified and refused to contact the outside world, in fact, the outside world has not paid attention to her at all!

He Mutian looked at Wanqiu sadly, and said weakly: "You know, your sister hurts you the most, if you let her know that the Qin family once kidnapped you and made you suffer such grievances, she would definitely break up with Qin Junyan, she was finally tempted, I really hope that she and Qin Junyan can go on for a long time." ”

"Yes!" Wanqiu sat up excitedly, pulled the corner of her father's clothes, and nodded vigorously: "I can't let my sister know, I must not let her know." ”

In the past eight months, she has been too selfish, only thinking about her own suffering, her own pain, and all the grievances she has suffered, and she has not considered her sister at all, if she lets her sister know what happened to her, she will definitely hate the Qin family more than her, in this way, even if she and Qin Junyan do not break up, there will be estrangement.

Looking at the little daughter in front of him who was full of scars but desperately defending his sister, He Mutian felt very uncomfortable, and he didn't know what to say to comfort his daughter for a while, he only felt that any words were empty in front of the hurt suffered in late autumn, the father and daughter were already unfamiliar, he didn't answer, the room was quiet all of a sudden, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing.

In embarrassment, Wanqiu remembered that her father had not answered the question in her heart before: "Dad, why is Qin Fengyan willing to let me come back, what deal did you make with him?"

He Mutian looked at Wanqiu hesitantly, and remained silent about the question she asked.

"Dad?" Late Autumn looked at his father puzzled, but inadvertently found that in just one year, the wrinkles on his father's forehead had become as deep as a knife, and it was only a little gray hair, but now it was gray, and he didn't even take care of it, allowing the white hair to grow crazy and the wrinkles to deepen.

"Dad!" Seeing that his father had been silent, Late Autumn couldn't help but ask again.

The room was silent for a while, and He Mutian's face was filled with indescribable pain and pity, and after a long time, he said slowly: " Eight months ago, Qin Junyan was impulsive and handed over the suicide note you sent him to the police, fortunately, although he was impulsive, he was not reckless, knowing that he did this, the Qin family would definitely not let him go, so before handing over the letter to the police station, faxed a copy to my office in Macau, but unfortunately, I was in New York at the time, and when I saw the letter, Qin Junyan and you were both under house arrest by the Qin family. ”

β€œβ€¦ I was very anxious, thinking that Qin Qixin, an old fox, would not let you go in order to protect his reputation, so I rushed to the United States overnight. The Qin family kept this matter a secret, and I thought of a lot of ways, but there was no way to get in touch with you and Qin Junyan, and then there was really no way, in order to rescue you, I had to take the initiative to ask for relatives. ”

"Asking for a kiss?" exclaimed Late Autumn.

He Mutian sighed: " Your sister and Qin Jun are in love, I have always hoped that they could get married earlier, but your aunt has not agreed, you also know how powerful your aunt is, just because Qin Junyan has no power in the Qin family, he tried every possible way to break him up and Wanqing, at that time, in order to save you, I didn't care about how your aunt would mess with me afterwards, and took the initiative to ask for a marriage with the Qin family, Qin Qixin saw that after I knew the whole story, not only was I not the enemy of them, but I was still willing to marry them, I was very happy, and I agreed to this marriage in one bite, and also promised to return you to me…”

Late Autumn couldn't help but interject: "They didn't let me go..."

He Mutian said coldly: "That's because Qin Fengyan, that kid is young, but the city government is very deep, for some reason, he insists on refusing to let go, Qin Qixin is very angry, but there is no way to take this grandson, just promise me that he will definitely rescue you." ”

β€œβ€¦ Qin Fengyan acted very cautiously, we waited for a long time and couldn't wait for the opportunity, but just before he and Leng Yingzi got engaged, he seemed to naturally suddenly figure it out and promised to let you go, I don't know why. ”

"Then if he regrets it, will he chase after him?" Wanqiu shook his father's hand violently, his eyes full of horror.

He Mutian was stunned, he looked at the late autumn deeply, and there was an indescribable love and pity in his eyes: "No, I have power in both black and white, you are safe here, and Dad will protect you." ”

"Really......" Wanqiu muttered, and a layer of sadness surged in her heart, the person she once loved like that had now become her biggest nightmare.

He Mutian lowered his eyelids, and his mood was very heavy: "Late autumn, my father is not very good at talking, and he has never taken good care of you, I know that you have been greatly wronged in the past few months, but don't think about it anymore after the matter has passed, in the future, you will live here with your sister, and I will arrange your future." ”

Late Autumn nodded tiredly, her eyes were confused, like a thick layer of fog, except for the faint pain and sorrow, there was nothing else to see...
