Chapter 407 I Love You, So Do I
Qin Sheng had dreamed about Lin Su on the plane. It did not occur to him that he would receive Lin Su’s text after he had just landed. At this moment, he was so excited that he was somewhat at a loss. After all, he, who had constantly been concerned for Lin Su, was relieved in the end.
He was thinking about her. It just so happened that she was as well. As the saying goes, as long as lovers are alive, they will always keep each other in mind.
Qin Sheng and Lin Su had been not together in more than two months. As the saying goes, one day apart seems like three years. Since they had been together for a full year, they had gotten accustomed to each other’s existence early on. Moreover, they were pa.s.sionately in love. This kind of fondness made them stay up all night. If they did not stop missing each other, it would make them mentally disturbed.
In other people’s situations, it would just be parting with each other temporarily. Moreover, in current society, they could contact each other via a call or the Internet. However, in Qin Sheng and Lin Su’s situation, after they parted with each other, they almost could not see each other anymore. Even if they were lucky enough to be alive, they dared not contact each other easily.
When Qin Sheng was faced with death, he thought of Lin Su. When he ran away to Tsingtao, it was also Lin Su whom he thought of. After he went back to Beijing, he still had Lin Su on his mind. This peaceful and calm woman meant so much to him. It was she who made Qin Sheng think that he would disappoint anybody except for her.
To Qin Sheng, the promise of “I will wait for you” was the best love words to him. In his opinion, love words did not have to be expressed in thousands of words. Nor did they need to be as sweet as honey. The promise of “I will wait for you” made him instantly understand how deeply Lin Su loved him.
Staring at his cellphone, Qin Sheng was dumbfounded for a long time, unwilling to come to his senses. He was eager to traverse through the phone’s screen and meet his beloved woman on the other side of the line. He smiled foolishly just like Lin Su had when she saw his text.
Zhu Qingyuan did not know what had happened and why Qin Sheng had been standing where he was and staring at this phone. Though he had called him many times, Qin Sheng did not respond at all. Originally, he had wondered whether any big issue had happened since Qin Sheng was so absent-minded. He looked at Qin Sheng’s phone screen subconsciously. After he saw the line of text, he figured it out instantly since he had experienced it before.
Zhu Qingyuan patted Qin Ran on the shoulders smilingly, who was in front of him. After Qin Ran turned around, Zhu Qingyuan pointed at Qin Sheng. Qin Ran, who did not know what her cousin was referring to, stared at Qin Sheng confusedly and frowned slightly. She too wondered why Qin Sheng was staring at the screen of his phone absent-mindedly.
Qin Ran asked with concern, “Qin Sheng, what happened?”
It was not until this time that Qin Sheng came to his senses. He raised his head and stared at Qin Ran. The look in his eyes was filled with affection and fondness. He said, “Sister, I miss her.”
Of course, Qin Ran knew what was going on. Since Qin Sheng had not seen his woman for more than two months, of course he missed her. She pressed her lips together and smiled as she said, “After we are done with the ch.o.r.es in Shanghai, I will accompany you to Ningbo. Let me see who dares to stand in your way this time.”
As Qin Ran finished her words, she became somewhat agitated, which could be seen from the look on her face. If Qin Ran was not satisfied with Lin Su, who loved Qin Sheng deeply, she did not want to have any connections with the kind of family like the Lin Family. Qin Ran knew how the Lin Family had treated Lin Su and Qin Sheng. If Qin Changan had not stopped her, she would have gone to Ningbo to argue with the Lin Family.
Though Zhu Qingyuan did not know what had happened, he said smilingly, “Well, Qin Sheng has a girlfriend. Your sister-in-law said previously that she wanted to introduce some girls to you. It seems she does not have to do that anymore. When will you let us see your girlfriend?”
As Qin Ran was thinking about the Lin Family’s issue, she chuckled and said after she heard her cousin’s words, “Cousin, the girlfriend of Qin Sheng is quite beautiful, who my dad and I find to be quite good. She has done a lot for Qin Sheng. You will know how amazing she is after you see her in person in the future. However…”
As Zhu Qingyuan heard the previous part of Qin Ran’s words, he was about to feel happy for Qin Sheng. However, as Qin Ran changed her tone, Zhu Qingyuan asked curiously, “What is it?”
Qin Ran said gruffly, “However, the girl’s family somewhat disgusts me. They have been trying their best to stop them from being together.” Qin Ran said so to let Zhu Qingyuan know that before Qin Sheng came back to the Qin Family, he had been greatly wronged.
The look on Zhu Qingyuan’s face became dim immediately. He asked, “What happened?’
Qin Ran gnashed her teeth in anger as she said, “You probably don’t know how they treated Qin Sheng when he went to their home for the first time. They did not even offer him any water to drink. Moreover, they ridiculed and mocked him acutely. The most hateful thing was that they kicked Qin Sheng out.”
Zhu Qingyuan felt greatly astounded as he said, “They did?”
Since all of these issues were over and Qin Sheng could understand why the Lin Family had held him in contempt, he said somewhat bashfully, “Sister, let’s not talk about these things.”
Qin Ran did not end it there. Instead, she replied, “Why? You don’t know how long I had been uncomfortable about it when I found out the details. If our dad hadn’t stopped me, I would have gone in front of them and asked them whether they were educated or not.”
Zhu Qingyuan said, “The Lin Family is awesome.” The look in his eyes was vicious. It did not occur to him that Qin Sheng had been greatly wronged.
Qin Ran went on complaining as she said, “They thought their family was powerful and influential. Qin Sheng, who was quite ordinary, did not deserve their girl. I will not talk about many other deeds they did because I don’t want to affect everybody’s mood. Cousin, I am afraid that once you hear all the details, you will have the intention to kill them.”
Zhu Qingyuan said thoughtfully, “Then I would like to meet the Lin Family very much and see how ugly their looks are. However, Ran Ran, don’t tell grandmother about these things. If she finds out all the details, she will cause a big scene.”
Qin Ran sensed that Qin Sheng had been somewhat unhappy and called a halt to it hurriedly as she said, “Of course I know that.” Her grandmother loved this grandson the most. Since Qin Sheng had been missing for more than 20 years, she knew that her grandson must have suffered from many hards.h.i.+ps and wrongdoings outside. If she knew what the Lin Family had done to Qin Sheng, based on her temperament, she would cut the Lin Family to pieces. In that case, the relations.h.i.+p between Qin Sheng and Lin Su might be in trouble.
Qin Sheng found it somewhat funny and did not know whether he should laugh or cry. He knew that his sister loved him dearly. However, after he was interrupted by her, he almost forgot his proper business, which was to dial Lin Su’s phone number. He was eager to hear Lin Su’s voice.
In the mansion of the Lin Family, Lin Su was chatting with Lin Yue. Since they had not seen each other for quite some time, they had a lot of things to confess to each other. However, as Lin Yue glimpsed at her watch, she found out that it was time she should go. Otherwise, she would get caught. In that case, both she and her sister would be punished.
At this moment, Lin Su’s cell phone, which had been placed by the bedside, vibrated all of a sudden. Lin Su was startled. She picked it up consciously, saw the name on the screen, and almost cried tears. She had just saved Qin Sheng’s new phone number a moment ago, fearing that she would miss any news related to him.
Lin Su held onto the phone and looked somewhat confused. As Lin Yue saw the look on her face, she said excitedly, “Sister, why are you at a loss? Pick it up immediately.”
After that, Lin Su answered the call slowly and clenched her clothing with her right hand anxiously. Two months had pa.s.sed. She finally received his call. She did not know how to describe her current mood in words.
On the way to the downtown area of Shanghai, Qin Sheng in the car felt more anxious than Lin Su. Originally, he had planned to tell her so many things. However, the moment the call went through, he was so nervous that he did not know what to say. It seemed that he had gone back to the scene when he had come across Lin Su again in Shanghai.
In the end, Qin Sheng, who did not mind that his sister, cousin, and sister-in-law were also in the car, took the initiative to say softly, “Honey, sorry for letting you suffer from the wrongdoings.”
Qin Ran and Zhu Qingyuan smiled at each other, minded their businesses unanimously, and did not interrupt Qin Sheng as he talked sincerely and romantically with his girlfriend.
It was a voice that Lin Su was familiar with. What Qin Sheng had said made Lin Su almost cry in an instant, who had been trying hard to keep herself from crying. She replied somewhat chokingly, “No, not at all.”
Qin Sheng sensed that Lin Su on the other end was crying. He said somewhat brokenheartedly, “Don’t cry on the New Year’s Holiday. It will be ill-fated. I think you look the most beautiful when you smile.”
Lin Su nodded obediently and said, “All right. I won’t cry.” After that, she wiped her tears away, lifted the corner of her lips, and smiled brightly. It seemed that Qin Sheng was standing right in front of her and could see that she was smiling.
Following that, Qin Sheng said, “I am fine, really fine. You don’t need to worry about me. However, during this period, a lot of things have happened. The happiest thing that happened to me was that I found my parents, my sister, and many relatives. I will explain it to you in detail after we see each other. They all want to see you, the most foolish woman in the world.”
As Lin Su heard this news, she was quite astounded. She knew all the details about Qin Sheng, who had been dependent on his grandfather since his childhood. Most of the time, Qin Sheng had been living with his foster parents. After his grandfather had pa.s.sed away, he had been an orphan. It did not occur to her that Qin Sheng had found his biological parents as well as his other relatives. She felt sincerely happy for Qin Sheng.
Lin Su said excitedly, “Really? That is excellent. I don’t know how to express how happy I am for you in words. However, I am not foolish at all.”
Qin Sheng found it funny and said, “If you are not that foolish, then how can you, who are so beautiful and amazing, end up with me, a man without a single success?”
Lin Su pouted her lips and said unhappily, “I don’t allow you to evaluate yourself like that. I believe in my insight. The man I choose is the most amazing in the world.” After that, she praised Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng felt heart-broken as well as relieved. Lin Su was such a foolish woman. There was a huge difference between a woman who was in a relations.h.i.+p and one who was not. No wonder his predecessors all said that however reserved a G.o.ddess was, she would become a tender woman after she found a man she liked.
At this moment, Qin Sheng was silent. That was because he thought of the situation of this foolish woman in the Lin Family. The more relaxed she was while talking, the worse Qin Sheng felt.
Lin Su asked confusedly, “Why are you silent now?”
Qin Sheng let out a sigh, squinted, and said, “I know how the Lin Family treated you. I know it all. I don’t know how to tell you about some things. However, all you need to know is that I am no longer the old Qin Sheng. I will make them pay the price for how they treated us previously.”
Fearing that Qin Sheng would do something impulsive again, she consoled him in a hurry as she said, “I’m fine. You don’t need to worry about me.”
Qin Sheng thought it was useless for him to talk about these things now. What mattered the most was to pick Lin Su up. Consequently, he replied, “Honey, wait for me for a few more days, just a few days. After I am done with the business in Shanghai, I will come to Ningbo to pick you up immediately. This time, n.o.body can stop me.”
Lin Su nodded solemnly and said, “OK.” That was because she knew Qin Sheng’s character quite well. If he were not very sure, he would not be so a.s.sertive. Many things might have happened during this period. She might find out the details after she saw him. Right now, she was looking forward to meeting Qin Sheng a few days later. Whatever it was 10 days, half a year, or three to five years, she would always wait for him.
At this time, Aunt Gu, who stayed downstairs, went up to knock on the door as she said, “Second Lady, get out quickly. Someone is coming. If you don’t go now, it will be too late.”
Originally, Lin Yue had planned to talk with her sister for a while after the call. However, she had no choice but to stand up in a hurry and say, “Sister, someone is coming. I have to go now.”
Lin Su hated to hang up the call. She wanted to talk with Qin Sheng for a while longer. However, since someone was coming, she had no other choice but to say, “Someone is coming. I have to go. I will call you later on. Lin Yue stole this phone for me a moment ago.”
As Qin Sheng heard her words, he understood why he had not been able to reach Lin Su a few days ago. It did not occur to him that the Lin Family had confiscated Lin Su’s phone, which made him quite angry. However, he had no choice but to say, “I got it. Take care of yourself well. If you cannot put up with it anymore, notify me immediately. I will be by your side as soon as possible.”
Lin Su smiled and replied, “I got it.”
Qin Sheng said sincerely, “I love you.” Even if he said “I love you” thousands of times, he could not express how deeply he loved Lin Su.
As Lin Su heard what Qin Sheng had said, she blushed immediately and said gently, “So do I.”
After Lin Su finished her words, she hung up the call in a hurry so she would not get caught. Otherwise, she would not be able to get in touch with Qin Sheng anymore in the future.
Qin Sheng held his cell phone for so long a time and did not want to put it down…
