“…… Mr. Qin, that, the key. ”

Qin Jiuyuan took the key that Ah Lian handed over to him, and he didn't feel too embarrassed, she waved her hand and let her go upstairs. After Ah Lian walked out of the door and specially brought the door for them, Qin Nanxun took the lead in clearing his throat and stepped forward.

"When is Big Brother going to leave?"

"I'll be away right away." Speaking of this, Qin Jiuyuan paused, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at the girl who was still sitting on the chair behind him. "Is there anything wrong with you?"

"It's not a big deal, if you're in a hurry, you can go first, don't spend it here for inconsequential things."

Qiu Xuan seemed to calmly lower her head and looked at the desktop, and when she heard this, she made a note on Qin Nanxun in her heart.

“…… Actually, it's not very rushed. Qin Jiuyuan suddenly spoke.

"Dad?"

"Calculate the time, you are about to start school, I'd better go home and live for a while, and then leave when school starts."

Qin Xiao, who had never been so cared for by his father's love, was dumbfounded, and wondered if the family had fallen into evil and changed feng shui to recruit the old father who had been wandering around again. He was stunned for a while, but only reacted again after Qin Nanxun's reminder, "Oh, then I, I'll call someone to help you clean up the bedroom again?" ”

"I'll do it myself." Qin Jiuyuan sat down again as he spoke, his eyes turned around the two of them with unspeakable faces, and said, "Now let's talk about it, what's the matter?" ”

“…… It's not a big deal, it's just that Qiu Xuan secretly ran out at noon again, and we were about to tell her about it. Qin Xiao touched his nose, obviously thinking that he was the one who took advantage of the reason, but somehow he was inexplicably a little weak-hearted.

Qin Jiuyuan raised his eyebrows, "Is there any curfew at noon so I can't go out, why don't I know." ”

"No, Dad, you know, she has a special identity......"

The plastic chair dragged a slight movement on the ground, and for a moment everyone's eyes focused on Qiu Xuan, who suddenly stood up from the chair, who looked back at each other and said calmly: "Why are you talking in the kitchen, go out and talk." Don't you want me to go to the study, why don't you leave now? ”

In the corner where few people noticed, Qin Nanxun's expression was gloomy for a second, and then he returned to normal.

"Xiaoxuan, your Uncle Qin hasn't spoken yet, isn't it a little too rude for you to be like this, a good child can't be like this."

Qin, uncle, uncle.

Qiu Xuan took a deep breath, looked back at a certain Uncle Qin who was inexplicably mentioned on the chair, and the muscles of his mouth rose into a smile. "Why, it looks like you don't want to go to the study, uncle, uncle?"

Qin Jiuyuan: "...... I do. ”

Qin Xiao: ???

At the end of the third floor, in the study room with a very objective area, four people confronted each other, and the atmosphere became strange for a while.

After waiting for a while, Qin Xiao made a preemptive move: "Did you go out today to see that Wu Hengyu again, didn't I say Qiu Xuan, did you take me in your eyes." ”

Qiu Xuan: "You are really funny, so according to your logic, do you and Du Ruo take me in your eyes?" ”

"Ruoruo and I are just friends."

Qiu Xuan laughed directly.

Seeing that Qin Xiao's face was pale, he was obviously angry, and Qin Nanxun immediately took over the conversation: "Xiaoxuan, didn't the second uncle tell you before, don't sneak out to play if it's okay." School is about to start, so you kid should focus on studying. And also, in case there are bad people out there who are trying to do wrong, how dangerous you are as a girl. ”

Qiu Xuan: "You play this set of rhetoric as a fool for me?" Who the hell has been trying to put me under house arrest? ”

"You kid, how can this be considered house arrest? Second uncle, this is for your good. ”

Qiu Xuan: "Hehe, it's so good for me that you can touch my bed in the middle of the night?" ”

"What do you say?" Qin Nanxun slapped the table and stood up, his elegant and gentle face was full of anger from being maliciously framed and slandered at this time. "I heard a voice in your room and was afraid that something would happen to you, so I kindly entered the door to check, and at that time, your Aunt Bai Wei was present and could testify, and the second uncle was really angry if you talked nonsense like this."

Qiu Xuan: "Do you know it in your own heart?" ”

"You!"

"Qin Nanxun." Qin Jiuyuan, who had been listening silently, finally spoke in a deep voice, he frowned and stared at the man wearing silver-rimmed glasses opposite, as if the person in front of him was not his biological brother at all. "She's better not true."

The gentle and elegant man subconsciously swallowed his saliva and retorted: "Don't you know who I am, how could I do such a thing!" ”

"It's all over," Qiu Xuan interrupted, his eyes looking around. "It's my turn, it's very simple, I only have one question, if I get the answer, then I will not go out again until the school starts."

"The question is, where are all my immediate family members or anyone who is related by blood?"

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent for a few seconds. After a while, Qin Xiao sat up straight and just wanted to open his mouth to say something, but then he was interrupted by Qin Nanxun on the side. "Xiaoxuan, do you remember everything?"

"Get straight to the point."

"Alas......" As if he had completely forgotten that Qiu Xuan was still fighting with him just now, Qin Nanxun took off his glasses and wiped them, and it was difficult to hide his complicated thoughts in his eyes. Also, it is impossible to hide it from you for the rest of your life, you have the right to know the truth. ”

"Second uncle?" Qin Xiao said incredulously.

"It's about Xiaoxuan's family, Xiaoxiao, so I think she has the right to ......"

Qin Jiuyuan: "Your parents were counterattacked when they were doing the Fa, and both died, leaving you alone in your infancy, because the two families had already set a baby kiss at the beginning, so my mother took you to the Qin family to raise." ”

Qin Nanxun: "......"

Qiu Xuan blinked, not to mention the parents who "died of being eaten while doing it", just in terms of facts...... So the Qin family is really an orphanage.

"So," Qin Jiuyuan continued, "Before school starts, you try to stay at home and don't go out, is that okay?" ”

Qin Xiao began to look at him with an inexplicable strange gaze again. Although his parents divorced early due to political marriage, Qin Xiao, who was sentenced to his father as a test-tube baby, grew up smoothly, but he is still very scared of this nominal father. Not only because since he was a child, men have stayed in the company or traveled on business trips and never returned home a few times, but also because they are simply cold and careless, as if they don't care about anything.

And the so-called "lover" he nominally found for him through various propositional algorithms, Qin Xiao actually approached with the purpose of intimacy, but later found that the girl's eyes were too similar to Qin Jiuyuan. Obviously they were the same age, but she was always silent and didn't say a word, just coldly ignoring everything with those indifferent eyes that were so thorough that she could see through everything, whenever this fashionable and young Qin Xiao would always think of his father and tremble. Fortunately, he still has Du Ruo.

Although he didn't get along in some personality aspects, Du Ruo was indeed the best companion for him at that time. And later, Qin Xiao learned something about himself and the doll he picked up for nothing from his grandmother......

Now, he watched his father suddenly say kind words to his baby kiss as if he had changed sex, and even took into account the other party's emotions, and rarely used a request-like "is it okay" tone. The seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy gritted his teeth, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Qiu Xuan blinked at the tall man in front of her, and suddenly said, "Do you want me to stay here?" ”

"Yes."

"Okay, then I won't go out until school starts."

Suddenly I felt that I was standing here with a lot of redundancy for the other two Qin family members: ......

Qin Xiao sniffed and interrupted them by saying something at this stall. "Qiu Xuan, if you just said that she seems to have something to do with you, now that the conversation is almost over, why don't you take a look."

"Okay."

Qiu Xuan stood up very eloquently, and when she was about to step out of the door of the study, she turned back to confirm with the man as if she was not at ease: "You won't leave until school starts, right?" ”

Qin Jiuyuan: "Hmm. ”

"Let's go." Only then did she nod at Qin Xiao as if she was satisfied, and walked out as she spoke: "What can Du Ruo do with me?" ”

In the huge study, Qin Nanxun's face changed a few times, and then he cleared his throat and said to the thoughtful man: "Big brother, it's not that I want to take care of your affairs, but didn't you make it clear that you wouldn't interfere in this matter." ”

"You won't interfere in anything, you want to exchange that little girl for Qin Xiao's life?" Qin Jiuyuan sneered, "Taste the evil fruits you have sown, even if I don't interfere now, retribution will fall on my head sooner or later." ”

As he said this, he didn't care about Qin Nanxun's instantly ugly expression behind him, straightened the hem of his clothes, stood up and walked towards his room.

Qin Nanxun looked at the figure of the man leaving, and most of his eyes were full of deep malice when he was covered by silver-rimmed glasses again.

On the other side, Qiu Xuan was sitting on the small bed in his room, comparing the blood-stained teeth that day under his pillow with the hand-copied book in his hand. She just came out of Du Ruo's room, and thought that Du Ruo would inadvertently reveal some clues about this family, but who knew that the other party just arrogantly swallowed the clouds and spat at her, and then said: "The little mute has been a lot bolder recently." ”

Just listening to this beginning, Qiu Xuan knew that this seemingly vicious and innocent girl must be trying to find a way to make things difficult and threaten her. Disappointed, she patiently endured her mockery for a while, and seeing that she really couldn't shake any clues, Qiu Xuan simply turned around and went back to the room.

In the hand-copied book given by Wu Hengyu, in addition to the story of the two children who were born at the same time at the beginning, there are also many folk legends. In addition to some obviously unreliable goblins to repay her kindness, Qiu Xuan turned over some interesting things in them.

For example, the story of the tooth fairy: in some areas, children will put their teeth under the pillow after taking off their baby teeth, and at night the tooth fairy will take the teeth under the pillow and exchange them for a gold coin, symbolizing that the child will replace the permanent teeth and become an adult. However, if you accidentally see the face of the tooth fairy while collecting teeth, you will be retributioned and tormented by it in your dreams.

Qiu Xuan weighed the tooth in his hand that was obviously beyond the size range of "children's baby teeth", and had a rough idea in his heart.

I believe that the tooth fairy exists, I believe that the tooth fairy exists, I believe that the tooth fairy exists.

She silently recited it three times in her mind to give herself a mental hint, and then decisively shoved the tooth, which probably belonged to the adult R-class classification, under her pillow.

It's approaching dusk now, and even if he falls asleep immediately, the tooth fairy won't leave work early. Qiu Xuan lay on the bed and first explained to Wu Hengyu that he might not be able to come out for the next week, and then turned out the phone number of Sang Wanning, who thought he would not contact again, but he didn't expect the world to be impermanent.

If you promise someone else, you still have to do your best to complete it, Qiu Xuan sighed secretly, and added Sang Wanning's friend.

The other side replied almost immediately.

"Qiu Xuan! Oh my god you finally added me, I thought you forgot about me! Woo woo woo I don t want to start school why the holidays passed in a blink of an eye, by the way, are you done with your math homework, lend me a look. ”

Completely forgot that now she is also Qiu Xuan who is back in high school: ......

When Ah Lian went downstairs and knocked on Qiu Xuan's door lightly and called her for dinner, Qiu Xuan was still in the room writing hard against the answer from Wu Hengyu.

What Qiu Xuan never expected was that in the face of the treacherous threat of ghosts at any time, in this proving ground that was obviously full of killing intent and crisis, when she was about to gear up for a big fight, it was the summer vacation homework that stumbled her steps.

It's been too long since I've held a pen decently, so after two hours of continuous copying, Qiu Xuan's hand holding chopsticks is trembling slightly. The man sitting in the main seat slightly wrinkled his eyebrows, and said as if casually, "Are you uncomfortable?" ”

Qiu Xuan: "I don't want to start school. ”

Qin Xiao: "......"

Not expecting such an answer at all, Qin Jiuyuan was silent for two seconds, and Qin Nanxun, the people's teacher who was sitting not far away, seized the opportunity to educate: "Xiaoxuan, the most important thing for a student of your age is ......"

Qiu Xuan: "Can you take me to school on the day I return to school?" ”

"Don't be stupid." Qin Xiao looked at her and sneered, "Even if the freshmen first entered the school, we all went to report on ourselves to find a classroom, did you forget?" Besides, how can a busy man condescend to give ......"

Qin Jiuyuan: "Okay." ”

Qin Xiao: "......"

"Then let's talk about it." Qiu Xuan finished the last bite, put down the chopsticks and got up and went upstairs first. The steward with a gloomy face behind him obviously wanted to preach some rules and regulations, but the people sitting in the main seat did not speak, and it was naturally difficult for them to say anything more.

In the room, Qiu Xuan sat on the bed and looked at the sky that had completely darkened, and her fingertips gently touched the dark lines of the finger rings on her hands.
