Chapter 229: I Treat You as a Rival in Love, But You Want to Be My Uncle?
Qin Changhou's face was solemn.
I have deeper doubts in my heart: What does Old Man Qin want to talk to me? Why did Qin Changhou let me reach out with Qin Bingxia?
Could it be that this thing is very large?
Soon, I knew what Old Man Qin was going to give me.
Just after I stretched out my hand, Qin Changhou took Qin Bingxia's hand, put her little hand into my palm, then pressed it with his hand, and said to me solemnly: "Mr. Zhou, entrusting Bingxia to you to take care of is the old man's greatest wish, I'm sorry for you!" β
Entrust Qin Bingxia to me?
This is Old Man Qin's greatest wish?
I was stunned, and I didn't know how to react for a moment.
"Dad......" Qin Bingxia struggled for a moment, trying to take her little hand out of my hand, and a thin halo was stained on her little face.
Qin Changhou's actions also far exceeded her expectations.
She couldn't look up.
They didn't even dare to look at me.
But Qin Changhou's hand pressed her hand tightly, she tried a few times, but there was no way to withdraw her hand at all, so she could only let her little hand lie in my palm.
Her little hands are delicate and fair. Weak and boneless.
It is undeniable that the moment I came into contact with Qin Bingxia's little hand, a storm instantly set off in my heart!
I stammered, "Mr. Qin......"
But when I opened my mouth, I didn't know what to say.
Qin Changhou's approach really exceeded my expectations. But I can't refuse Qin Changhou's request in front of Qin Bingxia.
Otherwise, it will hurt Qin Bingxia!
"Mr. Zhou, I know that things are sudden, and Mr. Zhou is caught off guard......" Qin Changhou's face was sincere, his eyes were earnest, "It's just that my father entrusted me, and I don't dare to disobey it, and I also ask Mr. Zhou to agree." Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to see my father. β
He also knew it was sudden.
But I'm the only one I can trust!
Then, Qin Changhou looked at me again. Solemnly spoke, "Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry for you." β
I hesitated for a moment, but nodded solemnly in agreement, "Mr. Qin, don't worry, as long as I am here." I will definitely take care of Miss Qin! β
I said this vaguely.
Qin Changhou wanted to entrust Qin Bingxia to me, but I said that I would take care of Qin Bingxia.
It seems to mean the same thing, but it's far from it!
In this way, it is not considered to refuse Old Man Qin's entrustment in person!
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou!" Qin Changhou didn't say much, just stood up straight, bowed deeply at me, and his voice was choked, "The old man will be very relieved if he knows something!" β
I was startled and hurried to help Qin Changhou.
He is an elder, and this gift is too heavy.
Meeting room outhouse.
Several young men who had come to eavesdrop on our conversation froze.
Especially Liu Gaoyang!
Originally, they wanted to spy on my relationship with the Qin family, and what Old Man Qin had to hand over to me.
Unexpectedly, they heard a shocking conversation: Old Man Qin and Qin Changhou actually want to entrust Qin Bingxia to me!
The eldest lady of the Qin family and the wild boy from the countryside are simply people from two worlds!
And now, the two of them are tied together!
Moreover, it was Qin Changhou who forcibly entrusted Qin Bingxia to me!
"This, how is this possible?" Liu Gaoyang's whole body stiffened, and he muttered, "Mr. Qin, he's crazy!" β
Several other people were also shocked and looked at each other: Qin Bingxia, the eldest lady of the Qin family, has both beauty and wisdom, and is one of the women who can be noticed by the entire Anseong, and she is also the dream lover in the minds of 90% of the men in Anseong!
In their minds, Qin Bingxia has always been unattainable!
And now, she's actually entrusted to a hillbilly they look down on the most!
They are not convinced!
Bang dang!
After standing in a daze for a long time, Liu Gaoyang unconsciously moved, but accidentally knocked over a vase on the table next to him!
"Who!"
Qin Changhou's vigilant voice immediately came from inside!
Immediately after, there was a rush of footsteps.
Liu Gaoyang and the others were stunned, and their first reaction was to turn their heads and run, not daring to face Qin Changhou who chased them out!
Inside the living room.
Qin Changhou chased out.
Only me and Qin Bingxia were left in the living room.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Qin Bingxia and I both felt that some hands and feet didn't know where to put unnatural, and they were even more embarrassed to look at each other.
"That ......" After being silent for a moment, it was Qin Bingxia who took the initiative to break the embarrassing atmosphere, and had nothing to say. Aren't you looking for your second uncle? Have you found your second uncle? I, I don't think I've ever heard you mention your second uncle......"
The pressure brought about by the embarrassment just now suddenly faded.
I suddenly remembered that I really planned to ask Qin Bingxia about the second uncle.
"Miss, will there be a list of guests who come to mourn?" My eyes lit up, and I hurriedly asked Qin Bingxia.
"Yes." Qin Bingxia nodded.
"Can I take a look, then? I searched the whole backyard just now, but I didn't find my second uncle, I wanted to see if I heard it wrong. I frowned and said earnestly, "Still, someone has the same name and surname as my second uncle, and I made a mistake!" β
Qin Bingxia didn't think about it, and directly nodded and agreed.
At this time, it was late at night.
The guests who came to the Qin family to mourn have basically gone, and only the Qin family's subordinates are busy packing up and preparing everything for tomorrow's funeral.
Qin Bingxia took me straight to the housekeeper and got a list of guests who came to mourn.
"You take your time, I'll go and see what's going on outside." After handing me the list. Qin Bingxia was empathetic and found an excuse to go out first, and gave me all the space.
I waited patiently for Qin Bingxia to walk out of the room.
Then, I hurriedly flipped through the list of condolences guests, and hurriedly started with the first name next to each other.
The first page, not found!
The second page, not found!
β¦β¦
I kept turning to the last page of the list, and I still couldn't find the name of the second uncle!
I don't believe in evil, so I hurriedly flipped through the list from back to front: the result is still the same, there is no second uncle's name on the condolence list at all!
"Butler!"
I clapped my hands and motioned for the butler, who had been standing at the door, to come in.
The butler walked in quickly and asked me respectfully, "Mr. Zhou, what do you command?" β
The eldest lady was so polite to me, and the housekeeper didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and Baba asked me if I had anything to order.
"As long as it's a guest of condolences, it's on the list, right?" I took a deep breath and tried to suppress my emotions. For fear of causing unnecessary panic and questions to the housekeeper.
"Yes!"
The butler nodded respectfully in agreement.
I hesitated, but then asked, "Could that be a case of omission?" For example, which guest came to pay their respects, but didn't have time to remember it, so they ignored it? β
This is the only explanation why I heard my second uncle's name, but I couldn't find my second uncle's name on the list!
"Absolutely not!" The housekeeper shook his head decisively and said categorically: "Mr. Zhou, you may not know much about Ancheng's network. As long as it is in this relationship network, no matter whether it is red or white, everything must be recorded in detail, because it is a matter of return gifts and human exchanges, and it is absolutely not sloppy. This kind of family dealing, you can't go wrong in the slightest! So, there's never a guest who shows up but isn't on the list! Mr. Zhou, don't talk nonsense! β
The butler looked nervously at the door, for fear that someone would hear it.
The only glimmer of hope I had was quickly shattered by the housekeeper's words: according to the housekeeper's meaning, if the second uncle really came to condole, there would definitely be the name of the second uncle on the list, and there would be no omission!
Conversely, if it is not on the list, it means that the person is not present!
So. The second uncle didn't show up at all!
Is that my auditory hallucination?
"Mr. Zhou, are you okay?" Seeing that my face was not good-looking, I staggered to my feet again, and the housekeeper asked me with a worried face, "Do you need me to send you out?" β
The housekeeper didn't understand why I asked such a question, and even his face changed as if he had been hit so hard.
"No!" I shook my head and stumbled outside.
"Mr. Zhou!"
"Mr. Zhou!"
The housekeeper was not at ease and kept calling me after me.
But I turned a deaf ear to it, and there was only one thought in my mind: I had failed again! The whereabouts of the second uncle are still a mystery!
But I obviously heard the name of the second uncle, how could I be wrong?
Wait a minute!
I suddenly paused, turned my head to look at the housekeeper behind me, and asked urgently, "Please help me check, is there anyone else named Zhou Qinhuai in Ancheng!" Oh, the sooner the better! β
"Zhou Qinhuai?" The housekeeper repeated the name, and then nodded solemnly, "Yes, Mr. Zhou, I'll send someone to check!" β
The hope that I had just spilled up was gone again without a trace!
It seems that the name Zhou Qinhuai is not famous at all.
Otherwise, the butler wouldn't have been so calm after hearing it!
I was extremely depressed in my heart, and walked aimlessly towards the outside of the Qin family, not even hearing what the housekeeper said afterwards.
"Zhou Zheng!" Just as I walked to the gate of the Qin family, someone behind me suddenly called my nameβthe voice was full of anger and gloom.
I paused and turned to look behind me.
I saw Qin Chuan standing not far away with red eyes and a black face looking at me gloomily! The way he looked at me. It's like you're going to eat me alive!
"Qin Shao, what's the matter?" I was already in a bad mood, and when I saw Qin Chuan appear, my heart was even more troubled, and my tone was full of impatience.
"You're going to marry my aunt?"
Qin Chuan went straight to the point.
The way he looked at me was a little colder.
Moreover, there is a humiliating expression on the face!
My body trembled, and I almost fainted to the ground: Qin Changhou just said that Old Man Qin wants to entrust Qin Bingxia to me, how much effort is this, and it actually becomes that I want to marry Qin Bingxia?
That's outrageous, isn't it?
"Who did you listen to?" I asked Qin Chuan with a wry smile, "When am I going to marry your aunt?" If I marry your aunt, then I won't be your uncle? β
"! You're fucking taking advantage of me! β
Qin Chuan roared angrily. Rushed straight at me with red eyes!
In his mind, Qin Bingxia's position was supreme, even much higher than his parents' status in his heart!
And I, a hillbilly, actually want to marry his aunt?
In Qin Chuan's opinion, this is a kind of humiliation for Qin Bingxia!
He would never allow that to happen!
Qin Chuan's eyes were red, and he rushed over quickly and quickly. The moment he rushed over, he directly raised his fist and hit me hard in the face!
"You heard ...... wrong"
Although his speed was fast enough, it seemed like a slowing down of the camera to me, and I easily avoided Qin Chuan's punch and tried to explain to Qin Chuan. "Your grandfather died, just to let me take care of your aunt......"
Now I am extremely troubled in my heart, and I don't want to entangle with Qin Chuan at all!
Therefore, I just want to get rid of Qin Chuan's entanglement as soon as possible, and quickly go back to brush up my thoughts and see what is going on.
"Take care of a fart! Don't you fucking mean to marry my aunt? "My explanation didn't calm Qin Chuan down. Instead, he was even more furious, and pounced on me again, "You provoked Chen Yue'er all day before, and now you provoke my aunt again, you are a fucking scum!" β
At this moment, Qin Chuan was furious. Desperate to tear me to shreds!
"Stop!"
Just as he was rushing towards me again, a cold voice suddenly sounded.
Qin Chuan and I froze together......
