Chapter 3252 Shen Tianyu 652

Qin Heng wanted to turn the car around and drive away.

But the bodyguards guarding Su Hua's house had already opened the electric carved gate.

There was nothing they could do; he came too often, especially during holidays, almost every day. If he didn't come one day, the bodyguards at the gate would find it strange.

Qin Heng stepped on the gas and drove the car in.

Since we're already here, let's go upstairs and take a look.

Su Hua and Gu Beixian were not in the living room.

Qin Heng took the elevator and went straight to Yan Yan's bedroom.

He knocked on the door and came in.

Yan Yan sat in front of the easel with a paintbrush in hand, copying a rabbit by Shen Zhou, one of the Four Masters of the late Ming Dynasty.

Qin Heng walked behind her, stared at the rabbit for a few seconds, and praised, "It's well drawn, very cute and lifelike."

Yan Yan continued painting, replying, "Compared to Grandma Su Hua, she's far inferior."

Qin Heng chuckled, "Why do you have to compare yourself to her? She's a leading figure in the field of ancient painting restoration. You can compare yourself to Emperor Qianlong. Have you seen the 'Emperor Qianlong's Copy of Orchid, Rock and Rabbit' in the collection of Gu Boli? You paint it a hundred times better than him."

Suddenly I realized, what good is being a high and mighty emperor? You'll still be ridiculed by future generations.

He's never experienced being moved, so it's not a big problem.

That's not his problem; he probably just hasn't met someone who can move his heart.

Yan Yan put down her paintbrush, turned around, looked up at him and smiled, "You went on a date with Sister Lu Yan?"

Qin Heng stared blankly at the corners of her lips, momentarily lost in thought.

She smiled at him far too rarely.

Too few, too few. In five or six years, the number of times he smiled at me could be counted on one hand.

Qin Heng quickly came to his senses and asked, "Are you laughing?"

Yan Yan's smile deepened. "Yes, I'm smiling."

Qin Heng was curious. "Why are you laughing? Is it because I praised your rabbit drawing as being better than Emperor Qianlong's?"

"No."

"Because I went on a date with Lu Yan?"

"Correct."

Qin Heng raised his hand to the bridge of his nose and thought for a moment, "Is it funny that I went on a date with Lu Yan?"

I'm happy for you.

Qin Heng didn't feel particularly happy.

He still treated Yan Yan like a younger sister, and he liked to nag her and say all sorts of things to her.

He said to her as usual, "Sister Yan is very outstanding. She's young, beautiful, has a great figure, is capable, and has a good sense of humor. She's a perfect match for me. But when I look at her, I don't feel anything at all. I'm not moved at all. Little one, have you ever felt moved?"

Yan Yan paused for a moment, her eyes involuntarily meeting his gaze.

It was a very deep look; those dark, deep eyes held so many emotions.

Realizing something was wrong, she quickly turned around, her back to him, hurriedly picked up her paintbrush, and said, "No."

Qin Heng raised the corners of his lips. "Look at me, I'm so confused. You're only seventeen, how could you possibly have feelings for someone? I'm twenty-two and I still don't."

Yan Yan hurriedly scribbled on the drawing paper with her pen, saying, "It's getting late, please go back. You and Sister Lu Yan have already met each other's parents. You two are well-matched, so cultivate your relationship and you'll naturally fall in love."

Qin Heng exclaimed, "Little one, I've noticed that you become quite talkative and eloquent whenever Lu Yan is mentioned. Do you like Lu Yan that much?"

Yan Yan's back stiffened slightly. "Yes, I like her very much. I would be very happy if she became my sister-in-law."

Qin Heng said, "Tch, if you like her so much, why don't you marry her?"

Yan Yan said softly, "Stop fooling around."

Qin Heng looked at her bulging back of the head. "I can feel that she likes me too. My parents like her, her dad likes me, you like her too, even my aloof and taciturn cousin, who doesn't care about worldly affairs, said that I should choose the one who is more suitable. All of you want me to choose Lu Yan, but I don't want to. I always feel that something is missing."

Yan Yan gripped the paintbrush tightly with her hand, remaining silent.

She didn't know what to say.

She shouldn't even be upset.

But she felt inexplicably sad.

It felt like a file was slowly grinding against her tender heart.

The pain wasn't sharp, but that dull, throbbing pain was more painful than being stabbed.

"Look at me, I'm just grasping at straws. Why am I telling a child so much?" Qin Heng raised his hand and rubbed her head. "Stop drawing and go to sleep early. Maybe you can grow a few more centimeters. I grew a centimeter this year compared to last year."

Yan Yan remained silent.

Qin Heng turned and left.

Get in the car, start the engine, and drive home.

My parents weren't in the living room.

Qin Heng quickly went upstairs and returned to his room.

He took off his coat, threw it on the sofa, and then slumped down on it.

The phone rang.

Qin Heng picked up his phone and glanced at the caller ID; it was Lu Yan calling.

Lu Yan's pleasant voice came over, "Are you home yet, Aheng?"

Qin Heng replied, "I arrived a long time ago."

Lu Yan gently scolded, "You arrived early, why didn't you text me sooner? We made a promise when we parted that you would text me to let me know you got home safely."

Qin Heng didn't know why he didn't want to send her a message first.

He has always been passive.

Lu Yan asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

"From now on, I'll just put on a show for my parents."

"We're just doing this for our parents."

"you like me?"

Lu Yan laughed out loud, "That's a difficult question to answer. If I say I like you, will you stop playing along with my act?"

"Right now, I just want to act and don't want anything to develop further."

Lu Yan paused for a moment, then said, "Shall we just let things take their course, Ah Heng? You and I are compatible in every way. I'm not extreme in my personality, and I won't do anything to annoy you. You're young, handsome, smart, have a likable personality, and are also charming and well-mannered. I'm young, single, and not bad-looking either. Wouldn't it be better if we took our fake relationship seriously and fell in love with each other?"

"Let's try to see each other less often in the future."

"Did I do something wrong today?"

Qin Heng knew she had answered correctly.

She was dressed so sexily tonight, revealing her entire smooth, snow-white back. She came close to him, her breath sweet as orchids, her eyes sparkling and shimmering, making him uncomfortable.

"Tell me what I did that made you uncomfortable, and I'll change."

"When you're alone with me in the future, don't dress so revealingly."

Lu Yan burst out laughing, "You really are a naive little brother. I'm going abroad in a few days, so we'll see each other less and contact each other less in the future. Don't back out, okay? I don't want to go on blind dates anymore, and I don't want to act with other people. I only want to act with you."

Qin Heng thought for a few seconds, then said, "Okay."

Lu Yan hung up the phone.

Qin Heng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

On the day Lu Yan left the country, Qin Heng went to the airport to see her off.

She truly kept her word.

After I went abroad, I had less contact with him and never returned to China, so we couldn't meet.

One morning four months later.

The corridor of the obstetrics and gynecology department was filled with men and women, young and old, all of whom were very good-looking and had excellent temperament. Some of them were very imposing and had an official look.

Suddenly, a loud cry was heard from inside the delivery room.

There were surprises, excitement, hearty laughter, and tears welling up in everyone's eyes.

Because the one crying in the delivery room was Shen Tianyu and Yuan Jinzhi's daughter.

Xianxian was born.
