"Jian Ran —"
Perhaps Qin Yue knew what Jian Ran was thinking about, so he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace, trying to give her warmth and comfort.
Jian Ran looked at him and gave him a reassuring smile.
From now on, she was Qin Family's wife and Qin's father was her father. Qin's mother was her mother.
She was also a part of the Qin Family. She could also have a warm and harmonious family, and she could also be happy.
Looking at Jian Ran's smile, Qin Yue didn't say anything. He just held her hand tightly in his palm.
"Aunt Aunt Liu, I'm hungry." Qin Xiaobao shouted.
"Miss, the food is ready." Aunt Liu continued with a smile.
"Thank you, Aunt Liu Aunt." Qin Xiaobao anxiously dragged Qin's father and the others back, "Dad, Mom, Bro, Sister-in-law, let's go eat first. Anyways, everyone will be here during the new year, so there's plenty of time to chat, so there's no need to be in such a rush."
Qin's mother and Qin's father were dragged to the front by Qin Xiaobao, while Jian Ran and Qin Yue were walking at the back. As they walked, Qin Yue suddenly pulled Jian Ran.
Jian Ran looked back at him, and he rubbed her head."Don't worry."
Jian Ran looked at him and smiled, "With you here, I'm not worried at all."
All of her worry and apprehension disappeared the moment he appeared, because she knew he was her most solid shield.
No one said anything at the table. Even the usually talkative Qin Xiaobao obediently ate, not daring to make a sound.
Everyone in Qin Family had to follow the rules without saying a word. Everyone was no exception, and everyone had already developed this habit over the years.
Jian Ran would occasionally look up and down at everyone. It was not hard to imagine why Qin Yue was so outstanding when she saw Qin's father and Qin's mother.
Qin's father's and Qin's mother's looks and temperament were both outstanding people, but Qin Yue had inherited their strengths, how could he not be outstanding.
Qin's mother was not well, and after ru ing for an entire day, he went back to his room to rest after di er.
Qin Xiaobao followed behind Qin Yue and Jian Ran with a sly smile, "Brother, sister-in-law, it's still so early today. What are you guys doing tonight?"
Qin Yue stopped and looked at Qin Xiaobao. He said in a neither light nor heavy tone, "New Year is coming soon."
"You scoundrel!" Upon hearing Qin Yue mention this, Qin Xiaobao became anxious. She stomped her feet and said, "If you dare to deduct my new year's money again, I'm not done with you."
She was a bad brother. Last year, he had deducted half of the New Year's money from her grandpa and parents, causing her to have a difficult life.
If he had dared to do this again this year, she would have taken his wife away.
However, he wasn't so idle right now.
Now that he was married, he should spend more time with his wife.
Thinking of this, Qin Xiaobao put on a smile and said sweetly, "Brother, sister-in-law, then rest early and give birth to my nephew or niece."
With that, Qin Xiaobao turned and ran away.
Qin Yue shook his head helplessly as he looked at her back. When he retracted his gaze, he saw Jian Ran sizing him up.
"What's wrong?" Qin Yue asked.
"No, nothing." Jian Ran shook her head.
She didn't tell Qin Yue because she thought of something when she heard Qin Xiaobao's words.
They returned to the room on the third floor together. After entering the room, Jian Ran turned around and hugged Qin Yue.
Her hands wrapped around his slender waist, and her head rested on his chest. She rubbed against his chest with much force: "Mr. Qin, quickly pinch me."
Today, Qin Family's parents came too suddenly, and they accepted her too suddenly. Everything happened too suddenly, to the point where she felt that all of this was just a dream.
Qin Yue held her, rubbed her head and said softly, "Everything is real, you're not dreaming."
"But I was so afraid I was dreaming." Jian Ran said softly.
Happiness was not so easy for her. A warm and harmonious family was an unattainable dream for her.
"Jian Ran!" Qin Yue held her head and said in a serious tone, "I forgot all the bad things in the past. You just need to remember that you have me."
Qin Yue understood Jian Ran's mentality.
The happier Jian Ran was, the more she would think about the bad things that had happened in the past.
She would be afraid of being swallowed up by the unexpected changes that would bring her happiness.
"Mm, then I don't want to." Jian Ran nodded and looked up from Qin Yue's arms, pulling him to sit down, "I went to look for some stuff today, help me check and see if Grandpa and Mom will like the presents I prepared."
"As long as you prepare it, they will definitely like it." Qin Yue said.
Jian Ran rolled her eyes and opened all the things she bought in front of him."This is a double-sided embroidery. I plan to give it to mom. What do you think?"
Qin Yue picked it up and looked at it, then nodded and said, "Very good."
Jian Ran then opened up the calligraphy and paintings that she had given to Grandfather Qin."These are for grandpa to see."
Qin Yue looked at it seriously and said, "Although it's not some masterpiece, but it's a good one and Grandpa will like it."
After listening to Qin Yue's evaluation, Jian Ran fell into deep thought. After a long time, she finally opened her mouth and said, "But I still can't think of anything to give to father and Little Treasure."
Qin Yue stood up and carried Jian Ran.
Jian Ran jumped up in fright, patting him on the chest anxiously."I'm still discussing business with you, what are you trying to do?"
"What do you think I want to do?" Qin Yue smiled, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"I ..." Jian Ran was speechless. He suddenly carried her to her room. What else could she think of?
"Go take a bath first. Once you're done, I'll tell you what to send father and Little Treasure on their way." Qin Yue said.
"You mean what you say." Jian Ran's face turned red again. Actually, every time he didn't want to do anything to her, it was all her imagination.
"Yes." Qin Yue nodded.
Jian Ran glanced at him, then turned around and went to the bathroom. After washing up, Qin Yue sat on the sofa and watched her pat the seat beside her.
Jian Ran walked over and sat down beside him."Are you going to tell me now?"
Qin Yue didn't say anything, but he suddenly raised Jian Ran's left leg.
Jian Ran instinctively wanted to dodge, but he moved even faster. He stretched out his palm and lifted up her pant leg.
On her left calf, there was a long scar that went from her knees to her ankles, ruining the beauty of her leg.
The last time he had used it, he had already told the doctor to use the best medicine to remove scars, but the results were not good and the scars had not been completely removed.
Qin Yue's big palm gently caressed her scar. His rough fingers seemed to carry an electric current, making Jian Ran shiver all of a sudden.
