Chapter 185 I Miss You
Chapter 185 I Miss You
Song Shiyao reluctantly withdrew his hand and went to find Song Shiyan.
Song Shiyao fears nothing and no one, except his younger brother...
Qin Yingxue welcomed Jiang Linlin, a frequent visitor to her home.
This time, she brought a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses to her door, carrying various gift boxes, mostly children's toys and snacks, all of which were imported.
After moving to Yanjing, Jiang Linlin would visit several times a month, but this was the first time she had brought guests over.
Seeing the two people's intimate physical contact, Qin Yingxue vaguely understood what was going on. She poured tea and served snacks and fruit to the guests.
"Yingxue, we're all family here, don't bother. Where are Song Shiyan and his two brothers?"
Jiang Linlin looked around as she spoke.
Hearing the commotion outside, Song Shiyao, without bothering to persuade his older brother, rushed out like a locomotive: "Auntie, you're here!"
Song Shiyao rushed halfway there, but when he saw the strange man sitting next to Jiang Linlin, he stopped in his tracks and then buried his face in Jiang Linlin's arms. "Auntie, you haven't come to see me for half a month. I've missed you so much!"
Of the three brothers, Song Shiyao is the most charming and good at flattery.
Jiang Linlin also doted on him the most, and hugged him tightly with a doting smile on her face: "Didn't I go to Malaysia with your Uncle Li? Look, I brought you a lot of delicious food."
Jiang Linlin gently rubbed Song Shiyao's fluffy head with a beaming smile.
Qin Yingxue wanted to stop them, but seeing the man surnamed Li standing to the side, she could only shut her mouth.
In front of outsiders, one should always give Jiang Linlin some face.
The two, one big and one small, were completely absorbed in opening the bags and taking out toys. Jiang Linlin seemed to have forgotten about the friends she had brought and was having a great time playing with Song Shiyao.
Qin Yingxue looked up at the man, who was holding a teacup in one hand, his eyes, seen through his glasses, radiating tenderness and affection.
Now Qin Yingxue had a general idea of what was going on.
After Song Shiyan finished bathing, Qin Yingxue asked her to go to the room and call Song Shiqing out.
Song Shiqing walked slowly at the very back. Her fair skin was flushed pink from the heat, and her delicate features were even more beautiful than a girl's.
The man's eyes flashed with amazement when he saw Song Shiqing.
Once the three brothers were all present, Jiang Linlin finally came to her senses and began to introduce them one by one: "Yingxue, this is my business partner, Li Xiangdong."
Just partners?
A hint of interest flashed in Qin Yingxue's eyes.
"Xiang Dong. This is my good sister Qin Yingxue. These are her three triplets, the eldest is Song Shiyan, the second is Song Shiyao, and the youngest is Song Shiqing."
As Jiang Linlin introduced the gifts, she beckoned her eldest and third sons over and handed them the gifts she had carefully selected for them.
Song Shiyan is a thick ancient medical book.
Song Shiyan is an exquisite dagger inlaid with rubies.
Song Shiqing is a beautifully packaged cello.
The three of them were delighted with the gift Jiang Linlin gave them; it was truly a gift that touched their hearts.
Even Song Shiqing, who usually has very few expressions, showed a lighthearted expression and immediately began adjusting the sound.
Li Xiangdong initially felt that the three children were still too young, and that the gift Jiang Linlin gave was inappropriate.
Upon hearing Song Shiqing casually pluck a few musical notes, his pupils widened, his mouth slightly agape, and he wore an expression of utter shock.
What did he just hear?
Even heavenly music can't compare!
After the initial shock, Li Xiangdong was filled with dread. Looking at the eight-year-old child before him, he realized that this boy would be extraordinary when he grew up.
Now he finally understood why Jiang Linlin doted on these three children so much; not only were they cute and pretty, but each of them was also exceptionally skilled in martial arts...
The three children received the gifts they liked, and Qin Yingxue sent them out to play, leaving the three adults to sit in the living room drinking tea and chatting.
"Yingxue, now that the child is all grown up, are you still unwilling to come and help me?" Jiang Linlin would invite her every time she came, and her perseverance over the past eight years is commendable.
“They’re all at that mischievous age right now, and if I don’t keep a close eye on them, they’ll get into trouble. I don’t want to go through what happened when my second child was three years old.” Qin Yingxue shook her head, a bitter smile on her face.
Although she appeared fierce in the drowning incident, she was the one who suffered the most in her heart.
This was the first time she faced fear and dread. Qin Yingxue, who originally wanted to make a name for herself in Yanjing, devoted herself to her three children from then on.
Jiang Linlin sighed: "Next year will be 1990. Opportunities are everywhere now, and if you miss them, you'll miss them forever. Song Yanchuan's current salary is only enough for your family's expenses. When the children grow up, you can't expect them to still live with you in the military family compound, with three children crammed into one room!"
Over the past few years, Jiang Linlin has already bought a house in Yanjing, and even wanted to buy one for her three children, but Qin Yingxue refused.
Over the years, Qin Yingxue has come to know that Jiang Linlin is no longer the same Jiang Linlin she once was. They now get along very well and comfortably, almost like best friends.
The only thing would be better if Jiang Linlin didn't keep urging her to go out and earn money, and instead reminded her how "poor" she was now.
However, after Sanbao started school, she had much more free time.
Actually, apart from Song Shiyao, she didn't need to worry about the other two children.
It's about time to find a business to do, and then legitimately take the house out...
Undeterred by her failure to persuade Qin Yingxue, Jiang Linlin sat for a while before bidding farewell to Li Xiangdong and leaving.
Qin Yingxue saw her off at the door and saw Li Xiangdong go to drive away. Qin Yingxue gently nudged her arm and asked, "Is it him?"
Jiang Linlin stared in Li Xiangdong's direction for a long time before shaking her head at Qin Yingxue: "No."
Qin Yingxue's eyes widened: "Could it be that he hasn't confessed to you yet?"
She had no doubt that the crux of the problem lay with Jiang Linlin.
After all these years, this was the first time Jiang Linlin had brought a man to her home.
"I'll tell you the details later when I have time. By the way, Yingxue, Shirley broke up with her boyfriend and is going back to China in a few days. Shall we have a meal together then?"
When Jiang Linlin mentioned Shirley, Qin Yingxue didn't immediately react.
After Jiang Linlin finished speaking, a scene from several years ago suddenly appeared in Qin Yingxue's mind.
A red wool coat, high heels...
"No need, I'm not familiar with her." Qin Yingxue refused without thinking.
Jiang Linlin nodded upon hearing this.
Qin Yingxue originally thought this was just a minor incident.
A week later, Jiang Linlin came to visit again, this time with Qin Xueli, who looked radiant and dressed fashionably.
Guests are guests, and even if Qin Yingxue wasn't really welcoming, she still greeted them with a smile and offered them tea and water.
"Sister Qin, stop what you're doing and let's talk."
With a bright smile, Qin Xueli looked at Qin Yingxue and asked, "I hope you won't be upset that I came uninvited."
