Chapter 559: Han Jing’s True Origins (Part 4)
At this moment, Qin Shutong, who had been listening silently without expressing any opinion, seeing that they had come to a mutual understanding, spoke, "Xichen, Miss Han, there’s something I’ve always wanted to find an opportunity to tell Xichen, but... he never gave me the chance. The reason I was surprised and curious when I saw you yesterday was not just because of your appearance, but also because I know something, something about your father."
Lian Xichen and Han Jing simultaneously looked at Qin Shutong: "What do you mean?"
The secret that Qin Shutong knew had been buried in his heart for many years, but he never had the opportunity to reveal it.
Now that he had met the people he should meet, he felt that if he didn’t speak up, it might cause misunderstandings for many people. Xichen had helped him so much over the years, and a large part of Dong Qin Country’s stability was due to his efforts. He had always wanted to find an opportunity to repay him, but he had never been able to find a way to help him.
In life, it’s rare to find a confidant, and he knew that Xichen was not enamored with the power of Dong Qin Country. Now he was about to let go and leave, and if he didn’t find the opportunity to say it now, he feared he would have even less chance in the future.
Qin Shutong glanced at Xiao Xue, who was being held in Lan Ling’s arms, and still spoke up, "Miss Han, this matter is somewhat... so it’s best to take Xiao Xue outside first."
Han Jing looked at Lan Ling, with Lan Ling’s eyes filled with gossiping interest... he really didn’t want to go, what should he do? Then he glanced at An Chuxue.
An Chuxue rolled her eyes helplessly at him, reached out to take Xiao Xue: "Xiao Xue, how about we go out and play for a while? They have some very important things to discuss now, so how about An’an’s mother takes you to the street?"
Xiao Xue looked at her ignorantly, then looked at the others, shaking her little head, "I don’t want to go out, who knows what you all want to do behind my back?"
"Pfft," everyone couldn’t help but laugh.
Han Jing reached out and poked her little head, "Little ancestor, what things can be hidden from you? It’s just that some things are not for children to hear, listening will make your ears itch, you wouldn’t want your ears to itch every day, would you? So mother is doing this for your own good, understand?"
Everyone was somewhat speechless at Han Jing’s casual way of coaxing children, was being a mother done this way now? Even fibbing doesn’t bring a hint of blush.
Xiao Xue stared at Han Jing for a while with wide eyes, covered her ears, and shook her head.
Then she reached out to An Chuxue, and An Chuxue picked her up, "Come on, little baby, An’an’s mother will take you to buy pretty clothes, okay?"
As soon as Xiao Xue heard about buying clothes, she happily nodded and agreed. Little girls all love beauty. When they were shopping in the morning, she was not in a good mood, and didn’t pay attention to anything, of course, she had to make up for it!
Although her grandmother brought many new clothes and all sorts of hairpins for her every year, those weren’t chosen by herself, which still left her a bit disappointed. Now she finally had the opportunity, she must carefully select so that she can tell Sister Xiao Hong in Ghost Immortal Town about the outside world!
After An Chuxue took Xiao Xue out for about a quarter of an hour, Han Jing finally spoke to Qin Shutong, "Mr. Qin, you can speak now."
Qin Shutong smiled, "Miss Han, I’m a few years your senior, if you don’t mind, you can call me Big Brother. Mr. Qin sounds too formal!"
