Volume 2 Chapter 59 Qin family’s cute grandpa

After realizing the expressions of Shao Qing and others, the old man felt aggrieved. His expression quickly became serious and he felt his heart hurt again.

Then Xiao Baozi reached out quietly and touched the old man’s waist. He originally wanted to touch the old man’s hair. This was because when he was sad, his mother often touched his head.

But he was too short. Even if he tippy toed, he could only touch the old man’s waist.

The old man’s expression didn’t change, but there was some joy revealed in his eyes. He tried to suppress the corners of his mouth, fearing that he would suddenly smile and scare away Xiao Baozi.

Then the old man sneakily grabbed the tender paws of Xiao Baozi and Xiao Baozi did not pull away. His thoughts were simple. This was the grandfather of his friend, he had to give him some face. Didn’t he see how bad his friend’s grandpa felt?

After Xiao Baozi did not pull his hands away, the old man’s mood was obviously a lot brighter. When he looked at Shao Qing and the others again, his eyes became a lot softer.

“Xiao Xi, are these your friends?”

Qin Zixi nodded, and then introduced Shao Qing and the rest to the senior one by one. To tell the truth, the old man had never heard of Shao Qing’s name before. But even though he didn’t have much expression, once could tell that he was listening carefully to make sure he remembered them.

Shao Qing’s impression of the old man improved instantly. Obviously, the old man only took them so seriously because they were friends brought back by his grandson.

Especially when introducing Shao Qing, the old man heard that Xiao Baozi was Shao Qing’s son, and he said two words to Shao Qing: “Very good.”

Then he said: “Don’t stand at the door. Let’s go in. Since everyone is a friend of Xiao Xi’s, you don’t have to restrain yourself.”

Then he took the lead and walked in. Qin Zixi’s home decoration was not very luxurious, it was a bit low key, but concrete details can be seen everywhere.

It even carried a military-style toughness. In short, the decorations were very appreciated by Shao Qing. She couldn’t help but look at it more.

After the group of people sat down on the sofa in the hall, a nanny came up to pour tea. When the old man sat down, he especially let Xiao Baozi sit beside him, and ordered the nanny to bring some candy.

A large box of candy with chocolate, fudge, and toffee, in short, everything a child would like to eat was in there.

The old man looked at Xiao Baozi very kindly: “What do you like to eat? If you like it, you can have it all.”

Xiao Baozi was not frightened, but also not greedy. He only took two pieces, a chocolate and a piece of jelly bean. Then looking again at the gummy figures, struggling to decide between the swinging Sun Wukong or Chang’e, he gritted his teeth and took Sun Wukong.

Xiao Baozi behaved so well, the old man immediately liked him. He pushed the box and said, “Take it all if you like.”

Xiao Baozi shook his head, and then said softly: “You are Brother Xi’s grandfather, so baby doesn’t see you as an outsider. However as a person, I can’t be too greedy. I’ll just eat these.”

The old man nodded, seeming to want to laugh, but he squeezed his lips tightly, presumably afraid of scaring the child again.

A child’s upbringing can be seen from the children, so the old man’s impression of Shao Qing got even better.

He stood up reluctantly, and then said: “If I’m here, you guys probably won’t be able to relax and have fun. So, I’ll go upstairs first.”

Xiao Baozi hesitated, then grabbed the old man’s clothes: ” Grandpa stay and play with us. I like Grandpa.”

The old man was happy. Although he did not show it blatantly, the excitement in his eyes was obvious. It was the first time a child had been so close to him.

But the old man still gritted his teeth and refused: “No, you will be afraid if I’m here.”

Xiao Baozi replied in a sincere manner: “Why will I be afraid? Just like how other kids are afraid of my eyes? But I’m not afraid of Grandpa or is it that Grandpa doesn’t like baby???”

The old man felt distressed, with a cold face he answered: “Who is afraid of your eyes? Grandpa thinks your eyes are very cool and beautiful!”

“Then stay and play with baby.” Xiao Baozi smiled immediately, and then revealed two little tiger’s teeth. The old man’s heart softened immediately, and the butt he lifted up fell back down.

In his heart he repeated, en … just a little longer…

“You don’t have to restrain yourself, just treat this place as your own home.”

After spending some time together, they discovered the old man was actually very kind. It was just because of his face that made him seem fierce.

It can be seen just from how he got along with Xiao Baozi. How can an old man who likes babies so much have a hard heart.

When the group of people sat together, it was natural to talk and drink tea. The old man’s eyes were very observant. After staring at Shao Qing for a long time, he suddenly said: “You were a soldier before.”

His sentence was not a question, but a statement. There was a special reaction between soldiers just like when Shao Qing saw Yan Hanqing for the first time. Thus he could be sure that she was a soldier.

“Yes, Han Qing and I were both soldiers, but I have been retired for a long time.” Shao Qing chuckled. Although she said that she retired, she didn’t even arrange herself to change jobs. At one point, she was at a loss of what she should do for a living. But she still did not regret giving the highlight of her youth to her military career.

She even had an unremovable military complex. Even though she has been discharged for so long, even if she struggled for so long in the apocalypse, when she sees the military again, she always has a heartfelt sentiment.

Most people who have been soldiers for a long time would be like this, like her, and like the old man in front of her.

“I can see it.” His eyes were very soft, as if he was recalling his youth: “At your age, why did you retire so early?”

“I was injured while performing a task. My physical strength couldn’t keep up with the training, and I could only retire.” Shao Qing chuckled and said: “When I retired, I was really young.”

The old man’s eyes suddenly became more gentle. From Shao Qing’s words, a sentiment can be heard. She was not the kind of soldier in military service for mandatory services, nor the soldier that can be bought in with money, but a soldier who was truly on the verge of life and death constantly.

“Okay, very good.”

The old man sighed, and then said: “A good soldier.”

Yan Hanqing on the side remained silent until no one said anything, then he gave a military salute: “Senior official.”

The old man looked at Yan Hanqing carefully, then patted his thigh: “This kid, I know you! Northern China’s Northeast Tiger!”

Yan Hanqing didn’t do anything because of the praise. He even felt that he was no longer qualified to keep that title, but it was obvious the old man remembered clearly. The few people changed from casual chatting to chatting about military life.

While the rest couldn’t join in at the moment.

When Qin Zixi’s father came back, he saw his old father hanging his arm around a young man’s shoulder, and was very happily chatting with another pretty good-looking woman.

His chin immediately smashed to the ground. Is this his dad who had a poker face all day long and was usually so oppressive? Did he overwork himself these two days and was hallucinating!?

It was not until Qin Zixi said, “Dad, are you back?”

Then did Qin dad react. All of this in front of him was not an illusion. His dad was really putting his arm around this young man and was chatting with that woman.

In fact, there was a cute and lovely child sitting beside him. His father, who had never gotten along with children, actually sat with a child and that child had not been scared off yet!

Hell, he just didn’t go home for a day! How does it feel like it’s the end of the world? No, it’s already the end of the world…

Qin Dad felt that he was incoherent now. He thumped his head, and then walked over: “Xiao Xi, are you back? Dad, you are in a good mood today…”

The old man immediately stared at his son: “Don’t come! Turn your face away, don’t scare my baby.” He said as he pulled Xiao Baozi into his arms.

Qin dad’s mouth twitched. Hasn’t it always been you that is always scaring children away? Besides, that’s someone else’s baby, how could you call them your baby?

But Qin Dad didn’t dare roast him about it. He didn’t look at him as a director-level person or that he was also a big stubborn man. In his own home, in the eyes of his father, he will always be the son who hasn’t grown up. As long as he provoked his father a little, then he would get a big fat beating. In fact it would be a beating on the buttocks, leaving him no face at all.

Two days ago, he angered his dad and now he couldn’t even sit down properly!

What should I do if I accidentally provoke my dad again in front of so many people? What a shame! How can I live if the news spread?

So Qin Dad moved away two steps calmly and retreated to a safe distance, then grinned, revealing a smile that he thought was very kind: “Dad, is this okay?”

Then he was slapped in the face by the old man’s shoe. Shao Qing’s mouth twitched. Looking at the smile, is that hereditary? Fortunately, Qin Zixi was not like the two men. Looking at Qin Zixi’s white and tender appearance, he probably got it from his mother.

“Go to the side, don’t embarrass yourself.” After the old man threatened Qin Dad, his face looked softly at Xiao Baozi: “What do you want to eat tonight? Grandpa can tell someone to make it for you.”

Xiao Baozi thought about it: “I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs, winter melon soup….” the list went on, then he turned to his mum and asked, “Mama, can I have pudding after dinner tonight?”

Shao Qing nodded. She generally would not force Xiao Baozi to eat anything, but she would control the amount of sweets eaten by Xiao Baozi. This was because eating too much sweets was bad for his teeth and bad for the body.

Xiao Baozi immediately shouted happily: “Then pudding is good, I want to eat strawberry flavor.”

“All right, no problem.” Looking at the gentle face of the old man, Qin Dad’s eyeballs were about to fall to the ground.

This was his father! Yet he has never been so gentle to him! Since he was small, he would get fat beatings after fat beatings. Disobedient, fat beating, troublesome, fat beating, bad grades in military school, fat beating, bad mood, fat beating, face annoying, fat beating.

For decades, except for when Qin Zixi was born, he never smiled at him!

Qin Dad felt wronged. Carrying the shoe thrown by his Dad, he had to give it back. Xiao Baozi ran over, took the shoes, then helped Qin grandpa put it on. After all, the old man treated him so well. Ma Ma had said, if you cast yourself or something then you have to repay or something. Anyway, it just means that if others are kind to you then you should be kind to others.

The old man quickly raised his feet: “Don’t, grandpa’s feet smell…”

Xiao Baozi’s hands were quicker and had already put on the shoe for the old man. The old man had a red blush on his face. He was so happy, it was as if Xiao Baozi was his own grandson.

Qin Dad on the other hand: ……

When the old man looked up, he saw his son was not showing himself off as someone worthy of respect and suddenly shouted: “What are you doing standing there in such a stupid manner?! Don’t you see the guests? How did I give birth to such a moron!”

Qin Dad turned into a wilting eggplant. The old man glared at him: “I told you not to stand there being stupid. Go to the kitchen first and tell the chef to make sweet and sour pork ribs and winter melon tonight. Also make……. En, does baby like to eat beans? How about scrambled eggs with tomatoes?”

Xiao Baozi said with a gentle voice:” I can eat everything but coriander. Grandpa doesn’t have to just order what I like. I’m not a picky eater. Grandpa should order what he likes.”

“Baby is so good! Then let’s have another stir fry beans, tomato and scrambled eggs. The rest can be whatever the chef sees fit. Also, don’t forget to make dessert after dinner and ask for strawberry-flavored pudding.” The old man waved his hand and Qin Dad felt that he had become a housekeeper, his whole being was unhappy.

“Go!” The old man glared at him: “I knew you weren’t able to think in different angles. You really aren’t just stupid looking.”

Qin Dad, pk*.

* drops dead

The old man was in a very good mood. This kind of good mood is maintained until dinner. At dinner, Xiao Baozi sat beside him and the entire time he would serve Xiao Baozi in various ways, acting even more considerate than Shao Qing.

Xiao Baozi would also lift his little buttocks up to pick vegetables for him. If one was watching this happy scene, they would definitely think that Xiao Baozi was the grandson of this old man, and even Qin Zixi was thrown to the side coldly.

So Qin Zixi and Qin Dad formed a poor father and son duo, one being ignored by his father and the other given the cold shoulder by his grandfather.

When Xiao Baozi sat and ate his pudding satisfactorily, the old man asked Shao Qing: “You aren’t from Jing Du?”

Shao Qing nodded: “We are from the survivor base in S City.”

“Then did you guys come to Jing Du just to take a look?” If it was someone else, he would never ask this sentence. The position of this old man in China can not be shaken. The people that could catch his gaze were very few especially if they were his juniors, that was even less.

It was mostly because of Xiao Baozi and that Shao Qing was very compatible to him, that he asked a few more questions.

“I just wanted to come and have a look. I have the idea of ​​settling down, but I haven’t decided where yet.” Shao Qing didn’t say anything. She understood the old man’s meaning. If they want to settle down, the old man would definitely be ready to help. Shao Qing was really reluctant to accept others’ feelings too much.

If Qin Zixi wanted to help her, she would definitely not say much, but Qin Zixi’s grandpa wanting to help too, that was just too much.

The old man could see through Shao Qing’s thoughts too, so he didn’t ask much, but just said: “Well, it’s good to settle down. Stay in our house tonight. It’s getting pretty late. Going outside to find a place would be troublesome. We have plenty of extra rooms so having you lot is absolutely not a problem.”

Shao Qing didn’t intend to decline. The old man immediately said:”Let the baby sleep with me tonight, okay baby.”

“Okay” Xiao Baozi blinked as he replied. If Grandpa liked him then he definitely won’t reject him and brother Xi becoming best friends.

“Grandpa, why don’t I sleep with you and Brother Xiao Xi, the three of us?”

The old man thought about it. The bed was quite big anyways, so it wouldn’t be a big deal with his grandson joining as well. He nodded and looked at Shao Qing.

The old man with white hair and beard, looked at her with expectant eyes. Shao Qing could only say: “Don’t trouble Grandpa.”

“I know Ma Ma.” Xiao Baozi was very clever and then the old man held his grandson in his left hand and Xiao Baozi in his right hand, then went upstairs to bed feeling like a winner in life.

Qin Dad was left to make arrangements for Shao Qing and the rest on where they should stay. Qin Dad was very cold to Shao Qing. He simply arranged the butler to assist them.

Shao Qing and her two octopuses slept in the same room. Yes, the two octopuses crawled over in the middle of the night.

When the two came over it was already midnight. Normal people were already asleep at this time, but Shao Qing was not asleep and was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling.

Yan Qiyue was the first to come over and rub himself against her. He organized his thoughts and asked: “Still thinking about the man we met during the day today? Why are you thinking of that little gigolo? Just looking at us two is enough.”

Er Dai agreed and stuck himself onto Shao Qing.

What is so nice about that little gigolo!

Shao Qing sighed and then said: “How do you know I’m thinking of him?”

“You still need to ask this question? You guys must know each other. Just from seeing how he looked at you, towards you… hmph…” Yan Qiyue whispered: “there’s definitely some other feelings.”

Shao Qing smiled and then said: “Do you want to guess what I am thinking about specifically?”

“Are you thinking about your past?” Yan Qiyue widened his eyes and then said: “I think you two must have a past!”

Shao Qing answered lightly: “You guessed about half right.”

“Did I guess that you are thinking about your past correctly or that you two have a past correctly?” Yan Qiyue was actually quite jealous, but he knew clearly that Shao Qing’s gaze on the guy was definitely not gentle. He just saw that Shao Qing was in a bad mood and deliberately tried to make her happy.

Shao Qing said: “The second half of the sentence.”

Yan Qiyue immediately moved over to her coquettishly: “That’s already done. You just have to look forward, look at your side. With someone so handsome like me, why would you still need to think about him?”

“Thinking about how to kill him.” Shao Qing said very seriously: “I have considered dozens of ways to kill him, do you want to help me think?”

Yan Qiyue: ……
