Qiao Weiyang's head hurt when he heard Qin Jiu's words. He did not understand when Qin Jiu had become so mean.
"Little Jiu, that's enough." He made a pause gesture at the woman." I'm just asking casually. If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you.”Qiao Weiyang spoke softly. From a certain point of view, he was a man with a good temper.
"Forcing me?" " Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, if you don't have the ability, just watch how I kill Li Yiran." Qin Jiu asked in disdain.”Qin Jiu threw away the coffee cup in his hand with a bang, then stood up, pulled out a chair, and left angrily.
It was only after Qin Jiu had left for a long time that Qiao Weiyang finally realized what had happened. Did he say something wrong? Why was this situation happening?
At this moment, his head hurt even more.
Qin Jiu was furious. He kept walking forward with his head lowered. When he opened the door, his head directly knocked into a person coming from the opposite direction. After she knocked into him, she didn't even apologize and continued walking forward.
The person who was knocked down patted his chest with his hand, then took off the goggles on his face and looked at Qin Jiu's back with interest. It was not until the woman's back disappeared that the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile.
After Qin Jiu left the cafe, she kept walking along the road. Finally, she reached the end of an alley before she remembered that she should stop.
However, after walking for such a long distance, the anger in his heart had dissipated a little. She did not know that she would be so angry when she heard Qiao Weiyang's last question. It was probably because she subconsciously felt that Qiao Weiyang had deceived her.
In Qin Jiu's dictionary, the most intolerable things were probably deception and betrayal, and Qiao Weiyang had already mastered these two points.
When he returned to the hospital, Old Madam Qin had just finished dinner. Before Qin Jiu went in, he saw Grandma sitting alone in a chair and staring out the window. It was a very lonely posture.
Qin Jiu did not know what Grandma was thinking, but when she saw the old man's back, her heart ached inexplicably.
"Grandma." She gently knocked on the door.
When the old lady heard the voice, she turned around with difficulty. When she saw that it was Qin Jiu, a smile immediately appeared on her face." Little Jiu, it's time to get off work!”
"Yes." Qin Jiu answered as he walked in and casually placed his bag on the table." How are you feeling today, Grandma?”She stood beside Grandma and asked with concern.
The old lady chuckled." It's just that I miss Old Zhang downstairs. I haven't gone square dancing with her for so many days.”The Old Zhang that Old Mrs. Qin was talking about was Grandma Zhang who lived on the first floor. Most nights, the two of them would meet to go square dancing together. Now that they had been hospitalized, they hadn't seen each other for a few days. They really missed each other.
Qin Jiu's lips curled up when he heard that." After a period of time, I'll dance every day when I'm better.”Qin Jiu deeply understood that the older a person was, the more afraid they were of loneliness. When they really couldn't move or do anything, they would probably really have to rely on memories to live.
"Grandma, let me massage your shoulders!" Qin Jiu took two more steps toward the old lady and put his hand on her shoulder. This was actually the most common thing that the grandfather and grandson did together. Qin Jiu had grown up with his grandmother since he was very young. When he was young, he loved to be by his grandmother's side to massage her shoulders and legs.
Qin Jiu had practiced for so many years, and his technique was quite good. Old Madam Qin closed her eyes and enjoyed Qin Jiu's service.
Qin Jiu started chatting with Grandma as he started to work." Grandma, what were you looking at alone just now?”She asked in a low voice, her voice carrying the unique lightness and softness of a little girl.
For a moment, Old Mrs. Qin had the illusion that Qin Jiu had not grown up yet.
"I'm thinking about when your parents will come back for dinner.”The old lady said with a smile, as if she had fallen into some kind of memory.
Qin Jiu was stunned by her grandmother's answer. At the same time, she stopped what she was doing." Grandma..." She opened her mouth slowly and called out. At the same time, she felt an inexplicable excitement in her heart.
Why did Grandma say that she was waiting for her parents to come back for dinner? Did she know something?
The old lady realized that Qin Jiu had stopped moving and realized what she had just said." Look at me, I'm really old and muddle-headed. Your parents have passed away for so many years…" The old lady couldn't help but sigh.
This sigh made Qin Jiu feel inexplicably disappointed." Grandma." She called out again.
"Little Jiu, do you miss your parents?”When the old lady heard An Sheng's call, she raised her hand and gently patted the hand on her shoulder as she asked Qin Jiu.
To a certain extent, the matter of Qin Jiu's parents was still a taboo topic between the grandfather and grandson. After all, Qin Jiu's father was still so young when he left. How could parents not feel heartache?
However, this time, since this topic was brought up, the old lady did not have any intention of interrupting. Instead, she asked for Qin Jiu's opinion.
Qin Jiu really couldn't answer the question of whether he wanted to or not. It was just that he seemed to be used to it. He was used to living with his grandmother since he was young.
"I don't know." Qin Jiu shook her head sullenly. She gradually felt sad because she could feel that Grandma must be very sad now.
"Sigh…you're right. After all, you were only five years old at that time.”The old lady sighed again and said slowly," Do you still remember what your parents looked like?”
Qin Jiu thought about it seriously. She remembered that her father was very tall. When she was young, her father always liked to put her on his shoulder, while her mother was a very gentle woman.
"I remember some of it." Qin Jiu replied in a low voice, but she could guarantee that even if her memories of her parents were blurry, she could still recognize their photos. This was probably the magical part of blood relations.
"Grandma, can you tell me what happened back then?”The two of them were silent for a while before Qin Jiu continued to ask. Grandma had told her some things about her parents 'disappearance, but she still wanted to know more.
"Do you still remember your parents 'names?”Old Mrs. Qin turned around and looked at Qin Jiu with a deep gaze. There seemed to be an important message in her eyes.
Qin Jiu nodded." I remember." Even if he didn't remember, he had heard some things from others over the years. Even if he didn't remember, he still remembered.
"Your father is a policeman, and your mother is Wu Qing, a scientist.”Old Mrs. Qin explained slowly," Back then, your father met your mother because he went to the Chinese Academy of Sciences to investigate a project. After that, the two of them got together, got married, and had you.”
Qin Jiu nodded his head. He knew all of this.
"Your mother has a good temper and a good relationship with your father. Ever since you were born, the whole family has been harmonious and beautiful. That's probably all a well-off family can do.”The old lady lowered her head slightly and continued, her low voice tinged with an inexplicable sadness." I thought your parents would watch you grow up smoothly. I didn't expect the good times to last.”
At this point, Qin Jiu's heart suddenly rose. She actually knew what would happen next. Even so, when she heard this, she could not help but hold her breath.
" Grandma..." She called out to her grandmother again, as if she did not want to listen to the rest of the content. After all, hearing it once would reopen the scar. Not everyone had the courage to bear the pain of the past.
Even though she didn't want to hear it, the old lady still opened her mouth. "I remember that your father went to arrest a drug dealer on a rainy day. Ever since your father left, I've been feeling uneasy and felt that something was about to happen. I didn't expect that bad news would come in the afternoon.”
Qin Jiu watched as Grandma gripped the wheelchair's handles tightly as she said this. The back of her already thin hands looked even more ferocious. Qin Jiu knew that Grandma must be feeling extremely uncomfortable at this moment.
"Someone from the police station came to inform me that your father was killed by those drug dealers.”The old lady continued," When I heard the news, I felt like the sky had collapsed. I was standing perfectly fine, but I sat straight on the ground.”The scenes that he could not bear to look back on seemed to be playing in his mind again.
Qin Jiu could understand this feeling very well. Who could bear to see the person closest to them die just like that?
"When I went to the scene, your father was covered with a white cloth. The white cloth was mostly stained red with blood. The person under the white cloth was still wearing the same clothes as before he left, but his face was shot so badly that his original outline could not be seen.”Grandma paused for a moment." But I don't believe that this person is your father. I don't believe it at all. When I said these words to the people in the police station, they all thought that I was talking nonsense because I was too sad. But how could I mistake my own son?”After the old lady finished speaking, she looked straight into Qin Jiu's eyes.
Qin Jiu's heart skipped a beat. What was going on?" Grandma, what do you want to tell me?”She licked her lips and asked with a blank expression. At the same time, she had an unbelievable thought in her heart.
Could that person really not be his father?
" Your mother didn't believe that the person was your father either. No one knows your father better than us, so on the day of your father's cremation, your mother and I didn't go. Until now, I don't know anything about your father's remains." Old Madam Qin sighed faintly." I told you that the remains weren't found because I didn't believe it.”
Qin Jiu looked at her grandmother with her mouth half open. For a moment, she did not know what to say. After all, she was too young back then. She really did not know anything about what had happened.
"So everyone thought that your mother would be heartbroken, but your mother acted as if nothing had happened. She went to work when she needed to and worked on projects when she needed to.”The old lady shook Qin Jiu's hand and continued," Your mother disappeared a few months later. It was as if she had vanished into thin air. She didn't leave any news behind.”
Qin Jiu only felt a layer of cold sweat on his back. The more he listened, the more strange he felt.
"Still no news?" she asked uncertainly.
