Chapter 460 - Keers Parents Paid a Personal Visit to the Qin Family House to Express their Gratitude (1/2)

Qin Sheng liked the little Ke’er very much; she was cute, beautiful, kind, innocent, smart and considerate. If he had a daughter like her in the future, he would certainly spoil her and give her all his love.

However, it didn’t occur to him that Ke’er would live in the same street as him, which was a genuine twist of fate. Qin Sheng could not help sighing emotionally; a lot of things in life had been written in the stars. After some people met for the first time, they would be etched in each other’s mind for thousands of years. However, although some people had passed by each other for tens of thousands of times, they would not be necessarily connected.

“Brother, what’s wrong with you again?” Ke’er saw he was absentminded all of a sudden; she wondered what he was thinking about.

Qin Sheng stroked Ke’er’s hair and smiled as he replied, “If I tell you the truth, you may not believe it. We live in the same street. Don’t you think life is interesting?”

Ke’er burst into laughter as she replied, “Brother, I don’t believe you. I know. You’re just saying that so that I wouldn’t feel awkward. Brother, you are such a nice person.”

Knowing that the more he explained, the more complicated the situation would become, Qin Sheng gave up explaining directly and smiled. He said, “You will know why I said that later.”

Qin Sheng held Ke’er’s hands and Hao Lei pulled her suitcase while Chang Baji and Nan Gong walked behind them. Nan Gong didn’t ask anything about the little girl. However, she was curious about why Lin Su had not returned with Qin Sheng, wondering whether it was because Qin Sheng intended to stop her foster father from seeing his girlfriend in person.

On the way back to Dengshikou West Street, Chang Baji sat on the passenger seat, while Qin Sheng and Hao Lei sat on the back row with Ke’er. It was clear that Ke’er was somewhat drowsy. She leaned in Qin Sheng’s arm and fell asleep, making him simmer with laughter. He thought, “Isn’t she afraid that I could be a bad guy in disguise at all?”

It wasn’t until they reached the street that Qin Sheng woke Ke’er up. She asked dazedly, “Brother, are we there yet?”

Qin Sheng replied happily, “Yes. Have a look. Isn’t it our very same street?”

Ke’er, who did not pay attention to other hidden meanings behind Qin Sheng’s words, said subconsciously, “So quickly. I didn’t get enough sleep yet.” After that, she took out her cell phone and checked whether there were any calls from her parents. However, there were calls registered at all. Ke’er was so unhappy that she puckered her lips high, which could even support the weight of an oil bottle. She thought in secret, “As soon as I see Grandfather, I will certainly complain about Mom and Dad.”

Nan Gong continued driving forward and arrived at the entrance of the Qin Family house soon. After Nan Gong stopped the car stably, Qin Sheng pointed at the siheyuan as he said, “Ke’er, this is my family house. Where’s yours?”

It seemed that it was just until this moment that Ke’er believed what Qin Sheng had said. She mumbled, “Brother, is it true that this is your family house?”

Qin Sheng replied amusedly, “Why would I lie to you?”

As Ke’er heard Qin Sheng’s reply, she danced with joy as she said, “Brother, excellent! Then can I come here to play with you often?”

Qin Sheng burst into laughter and replied, “You are welcome any time.”

At that moment, the main door to the siheyuan of the Qin Family was opened. Everybody got off the car at the entrance. Qin Sheng pulled Ke’er’s suitcase and inquired, “Let’s go. Where’s your family house? I will walk you home.”

Ke’er pointed at a siheyuan which was several households away from the Qin Family house. She said, “Brother, my family house is there. We are so close to each other. By the way, brother, why didn’t I see you before?”

Qin Sheng explained casually, “I was working in a foreign province for a time, so we never got to meet before. All right. Let me walk you home first.”

After Qin Sheng asked Chang Baji, Hao Lei, and the others to go enter the siheyuan first and wait for him, he took Ke’er with him and continued walking forward. It seemed that he had some impression of the very “family” whose house door was regularly closed tightly, just like the Qin Family did. However, during the Spring Festival Holiday, the entrance of their family house had been crowded with visitors and vehicles. Qin Sheng had noticed that many car plates of the vehicles were quite special. Moreover, the security officers, who were dressed in military uniforms, and the bodyguards dressed in uniforms had shown up there too. It was clear that the “family” was certainly not ordinary at all, making Qin Sheng quite curious about Ke’er’s identity. Even so, Qin Sheng could understand that Ke’er’s family had to be prominent since many retired officials were living in the area. Moreover, every household there belonged to distinguished families and secluded clans.

They soon arrived at Ke’er’s family house since it was only about a hundred meters away. Qin Sheng asked Ke’er to ring the doorbell. A young man soon walked out. He was somewhat surprised once he saw Qin Sheng; however, he naturally paid more attention to Ke’er.

“Alas, my little lady, why are you here all of a sudden?” The young man was dressed handsomely, who looked quite energetic as well. It seemed that he should be 24 or 25 years old.

Ke’er pouted her lips and replied with an aggrieved tone, “Mom and Dad didn’t pick me up at the railway station. I’m so unhappy about it. I will talk with my Grandfather and complain about it.”

The young man asked surprisedly, “Then, how did you get here?”

Ke’er pointed at Qin Sheng and explained, “It is this brother who sent me here. He’s so nice.”

Feeling somewhat confused, the young man said politely, “Brother, I wonder how should I address you. Thank you so much for what you did.”

Qin Sheng smiled gently and said, “It’s OK. It just so happened that I live nearby. That was the reason why it was convenient for me to bring her here. However, I need to point one thing out: it is easy for a little girl traveling alone to run into an accident, more so if there aren’t any adults to pick her up in the railway station.”

What Qin Sheng said struck terror in the young man’s mind. He thought in secret, “If this little lady were lost, the whole Li Family would make a ruckus. I need to report what happened to Grandfather.”
