C194 The Warmth of Home
Qin Shu tilted his head and watched the elevator door close. Although the man was tightly wrapped and the voice was not familiar, he gave him a familiar feeling.
Had he seen him somewhere before? Even when he walked out of the district and stopped a taxi by the side of the road, he could not remember where he had seen this person before.
The driver was a woman in her thirties. After Qin Shu gave her the address, she kept looking at Qin Shu from the rearview mirror.
"You must be Qin Shu from the LP, right?" After looking at him for half a minute, the female driver suddenly said in a surprised tone.
Her words brought Qin Shu back to his senses. He realized that the female driver was looking at him while driving. Qin Shu was scared out of his wits again, "Driver, can you look at the road while driving?"
Seeing that the car was about to collide with the rear of the car in front of him, Qin Shu quickly reminded her.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," the woman driver said, quickly turning her head and slowing down the car. "But you really look like Qin Shu. Are you him?"
Qin Shu deliberately made a very ugly expression, "Big sister, do you think I look like him? But my mother and I watched his competition. Even my mother said that I look like him."
Qin Shu had recently gained some fame from participating in the competition of The Sound, but before today, he had not reached the point where he would be recognized on the streets. If that was the case, what would he do when he went out in the future? He was not a person who could sit still.
The lady driver also thought that it was unlikely that Qin Shu would ride in her car.
So she did not ask any more questions and just drove.
Qin Shu rushed home before 12 o'clock. When he entered the house, Aunt Liu just happened to serve the last dish on the table.
Yu was walking around the birthday cake by the tea table. When he saw that his uncle had returned, he immediately pulled him and Qiao Lin to sing a birthday song.
Qiao Lin had no choice but to do as he was told. He opened the cake box and put in the birthday candles. Everyone sang a birthday song around the cake first and Qiao Lin made another wish. This wish was the same as the one he made that night. He was not greedy.
"Dad Qiao Lin, this is my birthday present for you." Yu had been clamoring to sing a birthday song and eat cake in order to give Qiao Lin a birthday present.
Qiao Lin did not expect that even Yu had prepared a birthday present for him.
"Thank you, Yu," Qiao Lin took the gift box that was wrapped in white paper from him, "Can I open it now?"
Yu nodded vigorously, "I gave it to Dad Qiao Lin, of course you have to open it."
With Yu's permission, Qiao Lin opened the gift box. Inside was a frame in the shape of a small house. There was already a photo in the frame, which was taken on the Ferris Wheel when they brought Yu to the amusement park. In the photo, Qin Lang and Qiao Lin were leaning their heads together and Yu was leaning in their arms. All three of them were laughing happily.
"This photo frame was bought last night after we sent you to Qin Shu's competition venue. He picked it out himself and bought it with the New Year's money given to him by his elders," Qin Lang said for Yu.
Qiao Lin patted Yu's head and squatted down. He kissed Yu on the cheek, "Thank you, Yu. Dad likes this gift very much."
Although it was a simple gift, Qiao Lin really liked it, whether it was the meaning of the gift or Yu's intentions.
Even Aunt Liu took out the gift she had prepared, a red scarf that she had knitted herself, "Qiao Lin, Aunt Liu doesn't know what you like either. It's cold and I just knitted this two days ago. I hope your future will be as red as this scarf."
Qiao Lin took the scarf with both hands and put it around his neck, "Thank you, Aunt Liu. This way, I won't have to worry about the cold when I go out."
Qin Shu, who was standing at the side, felt a little awkward when he saw this scene. He saw the rings on Qin Lang and Qiao Lin's hands and knew that it was his brother's birthday present for Qiao Lin. Now, not only Aunt Liu, but even that brat Yu had given him a present, yet he came back empty-handed.
On the way, he thought about Aunt Liu's cooking and the man he had met downstairs at Yee Fann's house.
"Qiao, I came back in a hurry and didn't prepare a present. I'll send you a red packet on WeChat." Qin Shu did as he said and quickly took out his phone from his pocket.
"No, your family has been good enough to me. You're going to be a big star."
Qiao Lin was now very glad that he had moved here to live with Qin Lang and Yu. He was glad that he had fallen in love with Qin Lang and accepted his love, which was why he was where he was today. Whether it was Qin Lang, Yu, Qin Shu, or Aunt Liu, they all brought warmth to his house.
He was content.
"What do you mean by your family? You and my brother..."
Qin Shu wanted to tell him about the relationship between you and my brother. We were already a family, but before he could finish, Qin Lang pushed him and interrupted him.
"All right, you don't have much money here and you still want to give out red packets. If you, Qiao, say no, then no. Aren't you hungry? Everyone, hurry up and eat. Otherwise, the food will get cold. "
When Aunt Liu returned to the kitchen, Qin Lang whispered in Qin Shu's ear, "If you leak anything about me and Qiao Lin, Mom will soon find out about it. If she finds out about me and Qiao Lin, your relationship with Yee Fann won't be too far away. Mom is old and can't take any shock. Even if I have to tell her, I will wait for her to come back and tell her myself when she's prepared. So don't talk nonsense for now."
Qin Lang's words woke him up from his dream. Only then did Qin Shu realize that he had almost said the wrong thing, "I know, brother. I won't talk nonsense anymore."
Qin Shu suddenly remembered the scene in the taxi, "Brother, it's been more than a year since I got my driver's license, and I've only driven your car occasionally to practice. I'm getting rusty. I was almost recognized on the way back today. For the convenience of travel, can I borrow some money from you first to buy a broken car?"
Qin Lang thought about Qin Shu's situation in the future. It would indeed be inconvenient for him to travel," Go and eat first. "
After saying that, he turned around and returned to his bedroom.
When he came out again, all the dishes on the table were already on the table. Everyone sat down and only started eating after he sat down.
Qin Shu first put a chicken leg in Qiao Lin's bowl and then peeled a shrimp for Yu. In order to please Qin Lang, he gave the other chicken leg to him.
Qin Lang took out a car key from his pocket. "Didn't you want a car? There's another one in the garage downstairs. I've only driven it once or twice. You can drive it. But before that, it's best to send it to the maintenance center for inspection. Only after the car is fine will you be allowed to drive it."
"Yes, yes, yes." Qin Shu's face was full of smiles. He did not mind that the car had been left in the garage by Qin Lang for a few months. The car was even better than the one Qin Lang was driving now. It was a luxury sports car given by the company after Qin Lang won the Best Male Lead trophy at the beginning of the year. Qin Lang did not drive it because it was too cool. Qin Shu had been thinking about it for a long time.
