take your surname

Chapter 42

When Lan Ke brought Qin An'an to Yuewan Villa, Qin Xu was lying carelessly on the sofa playing with his mobile phone. When the doorbell rang, he was startled.

Few people visit Yuewan Villa on weekdays. Except for Aunt Chen who is at home with her grandson at this time, few people know that Qin Yi lives here. Qin Xu thought he had auditory hallucinations at first, so he sat up and held his breath to listen A few seconds later, the doorbell rang again at the right time, and he got up and put on his slippers. When he opened the door, he saw two familiar and unfamiliar faces. Lan Ke saw Qin Xu, his face was slightly stiff, but soon returned to her most familiar face. The usual gentle smile.

And Qin Anan held Lan Ke's hand, wore a small pink coat and a small tutu skirt, and looked up at Qin Xu.

Lan Ke glanced behind Qin Xu and asked, "Xiao Xu, is Qin Yi there?"

Qin Xu nodded, "Upstairs."

"I... have something to discuss with him. I was afraid I couldn't make it clear on the phone, so I came here directly." Lan Ke handed the paper bag in front of Qin Xu, and said with a smile: "Didn't you like to eat matcha mille-feuille when you were young?" Is it? The store is not open now, so I made one at home. Although it is not as good as the one in the dessert shop, the taste is still very close. Would you like to try it?"

Qin Xu took it cautiously and turned sideways, "Come in and sit down first."

He didn't call Lan Ke "Mom", and Lan Ke didn't notice, they were like distant relatives visiting occasionally.In fact, before Qin An'an appeared, the relationship between Qin Xu and Lan Ke was good. At least compared to Qin Kai, Lan Ke did give Qin Xu sincerely.But Qin Xu is a very selfish person, he loves sweets and fears bitterness, and is insatiable in greed. From the moment Qin Yi hugged him off the wall and brought him to Yuewan Villa when he was 12 years old, his heart gradually drifted away from Lan Ke. up.

Of course, Lan Ke was not troubled by this, and everyone returned to their own lives in unison.

Qin Xu put the pillow back to its original position, let Lan Ke sit on the sofa, "I'll go upstairs and call Uncle."

When he walked upstairs, Qin Yi was talking on the phone. From his relaxed tone, Qin Xu could guess that Liang Tao should be on the other end of the phone.

"...It has nothing to do with me whether you back down or not. I just want to see the result. The deadline is next Wednesday. That's it. Hang up."

Qin Yi put down his phone, turned around, and saw Qin Xu who was leaning against the door in a daze, "What's wrong?"

"Mom and Qin An'an are downstairs. She seems to be looking for you urgently."

Qin Yi was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized that he touched the back of Qin Xu's neck, "Got it, you stay here first." After speaking, he was about to leave, but was held back by Qin Xu again.

"Can't I listen?"

"Nothing important, you play your game, I'll be up soon."

Qin Xu didn't speak, he watched Qin Yi go downstairs, and then heard Lan Ke's earnest voice, but soon, the voice dropped down, Qin Xu had no intention of eavesdropping, it stands to reason that he would stick to Qin in everything Yi, but this time he is really not interested.

He stood at the door of Qin Yi's study for a while, then turned around and saw Qin Anan walking up the stairs in small steps. Because there are many steps in the stairs, she looked a little tired, panting while counting, But when she saw Qin Xu, she grinned, quickly stepped up the last two steps, walked in front of Qin Xu, took out a lollipop from the little princess bag she carried, raised it above her head, and then sent it to Qin Xu. In Qin Xu's hands.

"……thanks."

Qin Xu took the lollipop, wondering why Qin An'an would get close to him, Qin Anan hesitated after speaking, and asked, "Brother Xu, do you like strawberry flavor?"

Qin Xu said "uh" for a long time, not knowing how to answer, but Qin Anan thought that Qin Xu didn't like strawberry flavor, so he quickly took out several more from his small bag, "This is mango flavor, and this one is milk flavor Yes, brother, you choose yourself."

Qin Xu was a little at a loss, waved his hands and said, "I like strawberry flavor, thank you."

"Okay, I like strawberry flavor too," Qin Anan smiled like Lan Ke, and when she wasn't smiling, her eyes looked like Qin Kai, but overall she looked more like Lan Ke. She put the rest of the candy back In the bag, he said: "Dad bought these for me. Mom doesn't know, so keep them hidden."

"How is your father now?"

Qin An'an might not quite understand this question. She tilted her head and thought for a long time, then said, "I don't know, I haven't seen him for a month."

"But didn't he buy you a lollipop?"

Qin Anan nodded, "Dad asked the driver uncle to deliver the candy. Dad doesn't live at home."

Qin Xu was dumbfounded, "He may be busy with work and don't have time to go back."

Qin Anan nodded, stood up and walked towards the stairs, Qin Xu realized that Qin Anan had climbed up specially to give him a lollipop.At the corner, he saw that Qin Yi and Lan Ke seemed to have finished talking, and they broke up with displeasure on their faces, so he called Qin Anan to stop her, and he went up to pick Qin Anan up and walked to the first floor.

Seeing Qin An'an's intimate gesture of hugging Qin Xushi, Lan Ke was stunned for a few seconds, then stepped forward to take Qin An'an in embarrassment, and said to Qin Yi, "Then I'll go first."

Qin Yi sat on the sofa and nodded to her.

Lan Ke turned around and faced Qin Xu. She squeezed Qin An'an's little hand and guided her: "Tell brother, Happy New Year."

Qin Anan said it obediently, and Qin Xu raised the corner of his mouth and replied, "Happy New Year."

Lan Ke brushed away the broken hair falling from his forehead with his fingertips, looked at Qin Xu tenderly, and said, "Seeing that you are doing well here, I am relieved."

Qin Xu didn't speak, he lowered his head, his eyes drifted to Qin Yi.Lan Ke left in a hurry, to put it bluntly in a mess, Qin Xu felt a little depressed when he saw Lan Ke like this.

"What's the matter?" Qin Xu sat beside Qin Yi and asked him.

"It's nothing. She came here and asked me to help Yang Junyan. She said that Yang Junyan was under attack from Jin Hui's back and back, and he couldn't hold on any longer."

The swelling in Qin Xu's heart suddenly disappeared, and he sneered, "Oh."

He put his head on Qin Yi's shoulder, took Qin Yi's arm around his waist, found a comfortable position to lie down, and asked for a long time: "Then how did you answer her?"

"Same as your answer."

Qin Xu smiled, turned over and got up, and sat on Qin Yi's body. When Qin Yi pushed him, he stuck to him even tighter, evenly. Glancing at him, she leaned back slightly, leaned against the pillow, closed her eyes and rubbed her temples.

Qin Xu looked at Qin Yiying's straight nose and slender eyelashes, and suddenly felt that Qin Yi should have a child so as not to waste the gene favored by God. He asked, "Uncle, do you like children?"

"do not like."

"Why don't you like it? Do you find it noisy?"

"There's no reason."

"I don't like children either, but I don't hate Qin Anan, so I can't hate her."

Qin Xu collapsed on Qin Yi's chest, listening to his heartbeat, "Uncle, how did you manage to forget everything about the old house, and completely let go of previous memories and feelings?"

Qin Yi opened his eyes, raised his head slightly, and said: "I didn't forget, I just put those unpleasant people and things in a box called the past, then put that box in the corner, close the door, look forward, and pass by." life now."

"Can you lend me that box?"

Qin Yi chuckled, put one arm around him, "Yes."

"Uncle, I suddenly thought of something." Qin Xu raised his head, looked into Qin Yi's eyes and said, "Actually, none of our surnames are Qin."

Qin Yi looked a little dazed, "You may not, of course, the probability is very low."

"So you know your parentage—"

"Well, it's not Qin."

"What's that surname?"

Qin Xu felt that Qin Yi took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, and then heard Qin Yi say: "Forget it, I seem to have heard it mentioned when I was young, but I can't remember it now."

Qin Xu grabbed Qin Yi's shoulders, touched Qin Yi's face carefully, and murmured: "It's kind of funny, what's going on, we two people whose surname is not Qin have been uncles and nephews for 12 years."

Qin Yi also laughed, "What? Want to change your name?"

Qin Xu's eyes were a little blank, "Can it be changed?"

"OK."

Qin Xu didn't speak, but bit his lips twice, then fell on Qin Yi's shoulder in a daze, Qin Yi gently hugged him, and the two remained silent.A few minutes later, Qin Xu said again: "I won't change it, I'm already used to this name, and this surname, I'm also used to it, it's better than Seventeen."

Qin Yi asked him what Seventeen meant, and Qin Xu told him. After listening, Qin Yi hugged Qin Xu tightly.

"Do you love me? Then kiss me." Qin Xu pursed his lips.

Qin Yi's kiss landed on his forehead, but this time Qin Xu didn't make any fuss, he couldn't help but said happily: "From now on, I will take your surname, this Qin character is not Qin Kai Qin Wensong Your Qin is Qin Yi's Qin, I belong to you."

He felt that Qin Yi's hand on his waist suddenly tightened, and his whole body tensed up. He took advantage of the victory and continued to say: "Is there a saying, use your surname, and give me my name? Do you think it's okay? "

Qin Xu was just trying to be coquettish and obedient, and wrapped his fingers around Qin Yi's hair. He lowered his head to look into Qin Yi's eyes, but suddenly froze.

Qin Yi stared at him with burning eyes, as if there was a ball of fire inside, trying to pierce him, Qin Yi said in a deep voice: "Xiao Xu, adults should learn to be responsible for what they have said, not everything can be used Come on kidding."

Qin Xu hasn't seen Qin Yi so serious for a long time, he was a little scared, he sat back subconsciously, and he said: "I'm not joking, that's what I think in my heart, I want to be a real family with you, one only The place for the two of us is a very warm little home, and no one abandons the other."

"Now... isn't it?"

Qin Xu actually hesitated about this question, but he shook his head and gave his answer, "No, it's not enough, I want a closer relationship, otherwise I don't feel safe."

The 12-year-old Qin Xu had to wrap himself in a tight quilt to fall asleep. At that time, he said that he had no sense of security, and Qin Xu still lacked a sense of security. Obviously, Qin Yi had tried his best to give him a lot.

Qin Yi sometimes wonders: What exactly does Qin Xu want?

He doesn't know, so he seldom promises, and doesn't respond to Qin Xu's overtures, but every time he opens his arms, Qin Xu bumps into his arms with a smile, as if his embrace is a warm haven , That appearance was remembered by Qin Yi, he thought: This may be what Qin Xu wants.

One that stays there forever, never leaves the safe haven where he abandoned him.

Qin Xu had lunch, and was a little tired in the afternoon. He slumped on the sofa and played with his mobile phone for a while before going upstairs to sleep. Qin Yi was a little obsessive about cleaning the kitchen. He wiped the range hood twice with a rag before finishing the cleaning work, and went to the bathroom to wash his hands .

As soon as I came out, I heard the phone vibrate twice.

He took it over and saw that Eddie had sent him a message.

——President Qin, do you have time to come to Mengdian for a gathering?I'm leaving Haishi tonight, and I want to say goodbye to you solemnly.

Qin Yi was taken aback, a little surprised, he replied: "Okay, I'm free now."

Eddie replied quickly, "That's great, I'll wait for you."

Qin Yi went upstairs and wanted to tell Qin Xu something, but when he walked to the bed, he saw that Qin Xu was fast asleep and breathing steadily.Qin Yi had no choice but to help him tuck the corner of the quilt, and gently helped him close the screen curtain of the French window, turned and left.

He sent a message to Qin Xu, saying that Eddie was leaving Haishi, said goodbye to him before leaving, and that he would go home soon.

When we arrived at Mengdian, there were already a lot of people inside. Qin Yi even saw a few familiar faces in the lobby. They were all wealthy bosses who were famous as "beloved wives". He tried to avoid running into these people head-on, causing unnecessary trouble. He asked Eddie to come down to pick him up, and went upstairs through the staff passage.

The little security guard guarding the entrance of the staff passage was tall and looked young. He saw Qin Yi bowing habitually at first, but stopped in the middle of the bow, barely stood up straight, and turned sideways to let Qin Yi enter.

Qin Yi walked in without knowing it, but from the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of Eddie holding onto the shoulder of the little security guard, kissing him on the cheek, blinking his eyes to comfort him, and then followed.

Qin Yi understood now, "Oh, it turned out to be elopement."

Eddie smiled and corrected: "It's not elopement, it's going home."

Walking into the room, there was a prepared tea set and boiling water on the small coffee table. Qin Yi took off his coat and sat down.

"So it's settled?"

Eddie didn't close the door, just concealed it. This is Qin Yi's usual rule. Eddie walked to the edge of the sofa and shrugged, "It's not settled, but I just want to change direction and take a look on another road."

"What about later?"

"He said that there is a lake to be developed in his hometown, and he can open a small hotel there."

"It will actually be very hard."

"Yeah, I think so too," Eddie nodded, but put his hands on his chin and smiled yearningly, "but as soon as he said it, I felt that the picture was the most comfortable life I could think of, away from the world, But there's smoke."

"I wish you happiness."

"Don't wish me happiness, you should wish me happiness, wish me a new life, wish me love myself again."

"Well, congratulations."

"President Qin, I won't wish you that much." He picked up the small porcelain cup and touched Qin Yi, "I wish you happiness."

Qin Yi paused, and said, "Thank you."

"Leaving this time, I probably won't come back again. If the inn can be set up, I made the right turn. I will definitely call you and tell you. I hope you will not be disgusted with it at that time. Take the children and stay with us for two sky."

"Of course, I'm looking forward to it."

"By the way, you and the kids—" Eddie was about to speak, when he heard a "sneeze!"

Eddie and Qin Yi looked over at the same time, and saw Qin Xu rubbing his nose while pushing the door, and glanced at Eddie quietly. He looked embarrassed, but he spoke very confidently, staring straight at Qin Yi and said: "You answer his question first, and then settle accounts with me later."

Qin Yi had no choice but to turn to Eddie, "What did you ask?"

"Let me ask, are you getting along well with the kid, uncle and nephew? How is the kid's grades now?"

Qin Xu was in a hurry, and hurried up, "It's not this!"

Eddie laughed loudly, "Which one is that? Hey, why isn't Little Vinegar Bao jealous today?"

Qin Yi also looked over, and Qin Xu said awkwardly: "I heard everything at the door."

Qin Yi shook his head. It just so happened that there were some unpleasant voices from the next door. He stood up and put on his coat, holding Qin Xu's arm and was about to leave, but Eddie grabbed Qin Xu's shoulder from behind.

"Brother, come, can I have a word with you?"
