Zhou Yan’s older male cousin, Liu Jing, is said to be the son of Zhou Yan’s mother’s sister. Zhou Yan stayed at their home for several years as a child, because it was convenient to go to school there.
Liu Jing, as an only child, liked this beautiful and lovely sister very much, and Zhou Yan was also very clever in character. The brother and sister had a good relationship. Even if the two later went their separate ways because of their studies and work, they often had contact.
Only when Zhou Yan and Qi Sheng got together, Liu Jing began to feel that Zhou Yan didn’t respect herself, and gradually alienated her. It was not until Zhou Yan gave birth to Qi Wenfeng that they gradually regained some contact.
However, Qi Sheng didn’t pay much attention at that time. When Zhou Yan thought deeply and transferred property, they deliberately reduced contacts on the surface.
Liu Jing was an ordinary office worker and now works in Nanshi. Zhou Yan secretly met Liu Jing under the pretext of traveling to Nanshi.
Because Zhou Yan’s hometown wasn’t in Nanshi, and Nanshi was also a tourist city, Qi Sheng just thought that Zhou Yan liked to go there to play. Zhou Yan doesn’t work. Besides taking care of Qi Wenfeng, she likes to go out to travel. There were many cities she often goes to, so Qi Sheng didn’t see that Zhou Yan went behind his back to meet old acquaintances.
After a round of calculation, Qi Sheng had to sigh with emotion. With Zhou Yan’s caution, and if he hadn’t known the development of the plot, he really wouldn’t have found any clues.
Giving his son some buffer time, Qi Sheng asked him, “son, if one day you find your wife or girlfriend secretly transferring your property behind your back, or even plotting something you don’t know. What would you do?”
Qi Wenfeng hadn’t recovered at that moment. It was because he couldn’t believe that his seemingly weak mother did this in secret, and that even he didn’t know, thinking that his mother could hide things so deeply. He lived with her since he was born and didn’t know that his mother had a cousin who had a good relationship with her. However, looking at what was in his father’s cell phone, he gave it back to his father in exasperation.
Staring at Qi Sheng, he said angrily, “this … this proves nothing. You don’t know what other people say about Mom. She just doesn’t feel safe. Isn’t she just afraid that you wouldn’t want us one day, so she saved some private money!”
“Son, you may feel uncomfortable when Dad says these following words, but Dad thinks that it’s better to say some things.”
Looking at the child whose eyes were red with tears, Qi Sheng still felt determined.
“You should also know a little about Dad. Although I like to play around all these years. I still pay attention to my children. When I was with your mother, I just wanted to get what I wanted. As usual, after getting along for a few months, I separated. I didn’t even know you existed until you were a year old. Your mother didn’t bring you to me …”
“Stop it!” Qi Wenfeng looked at his father with tears in his eyes and a sense of injustice. Isn’t this man very fond of him? Why are you saying these things today?
“Dad is telling you all this, just because I wanted to tell you. If it weren’t for you, if Dad found out today that someone around me was calculating me… Even if I liked her very much, at the lightest, I would have sent her far away!”
Qi Sheng came to his son and hugged the child crying in tears. He didn’t sit back until he calmed down.
Qi Wenfeng’s eyes were red, and he forced tears from his eyes and looked at his father: “Are you … are you going to stop Mom now that you found her like this?”
Qi Sheng put the side dishes into the pot and began to talk slowly about Qi Wenyu and Xu Ning.
At the beginning, Xu Ning went to Qi Wenyu, time after time, to ask for money. Their abnormal behavior attracted the attention of Zhou Yan, who arranged for people to watch Qi Wenyu.
Zhou Yan hoped Qi Wenyu would make some mistakes, although she was unwilling at the beginning. It was so that she could talk about it with him in bed, and look for opportunities to make her son enter the Qi household.
As people say, ‘everything comes to those who set their minds on it’. The appearance of Xu Ning made her think that even the gods care for her. Qi Wenyu, her most difficult problem to solve, was unbelievably not the child of the Qi family at all. She was almost unable to disguise her excitement and happiness at that moment.
Qi Wenyu was unable to accept the truth when he first found out about it. It was like thunder in clear skies for him. He was brought up by his grandfather, and his goal was to assume the responsibility of the Qi family. But one day someone told him that he was not a child of the Qi family. What he enjoyed now was secretly calculated from the Qi family. He occupied another person’s identity and enjoyed everything that should have belonged to that person.
Even if it was true, at that moment he couldn’t bear it. He hesitated for a long time, but couldn’t summon up the courage to tell the truth to his grandfather and parents. He secretly went to see the original son, Shen Yan. Clearly twelfth grade was the most strained grade, but Shen Yan went to work nearby, every night. He learned that Shen Yan had a very bad life, he knew that this person suffered a lot over the years …
He was even more afraid. Once he told the truth, he was no longer qualified to stay in the Qi family. During that time, he spent every day in torment until the matter came to light. On the contrary, he felt relieved …
If one keeps trying to do something, good or bad, the chances of success are very high. Zhou Yan finally found Qi Wenyu’s secret weakness, and wouldn’t let this opportunity pass easily.
Zhou Yan also knew something about the Qi family over the years. The most difficult thing was the Qi patriarch. After all, Qi Wenyu was a child he raised from an early age. Their feelings were naturally deep. If the Qi patriarch softens, he would think that the child was innocent and let Qi Wenyu stay in the Qi family. This isn’t what she wanted to see.
So, she asked her cousin to help her find someone to contact Xu Ning and coerced Xu Ning to tell the ‘truth’ to the Qi family.
Xu Ning was short of money at that time, Qi Wenyu couldn’t be counted on. In a moment of irritation and impatience, she agreed to her terms on impulse.
Over the years, Liu Jing had also gained a lot of benefits, as an ordinary office worker he had a very prosperous life. He was more and more supportive of his cousin’s purpose. Therefore, he has met the person many times in private, intentionally or unintentionally. In that way, even across the city, the future development was still in accordance with their expectations.
Qi Sheng was furious at Xu Ning’s calculation and even hated Qi Wenyu for being a white eyed wolf. Thinking that his fatherly love for Qi Wenyu made the child ‘feel at ease’ staying at the Qi’s house after knowing the truth, and still ‘subsidized’ his biological mother in private. Because of this, Qi Sheng couldn’t accept Qi Wenyu back, no matter how he persuaded.
Qi Wenfeng didn’t expect his mother to be the driving force behind these things, but he didn’t like Qi Wenyu and could not help but defend: “Since Qi Wenyu isn’t surnamed Qi and his mother had caused so much suffering to Elder Brother Yan, there’s nothing wrong with Mom trying to drive him away …”
He looked at his father secretly and saw that his father was not angry because of his words. He continued, “Grandpa is too partial to Qi Wenyu. If she didn’t do this, wouldn’t he stay in the Qi household? I’m still your son, is grandpa’s grandson, but I haven’t been to the Qi house for years …”
He does favor Qi Wenyu, and even Qi Sheng, his own son, was below Qi Wenyu in the old man’s heart. So, in order to keep Qi Wenyu unaffected over the years, even if Qi Wenfeng was also the blood of the Qi family, he hasn’t let Qi Wenfeng enter the Qi family.
“Son, your mother has made you and Wenyu compete in everything over the years. Do you really not understand what she’s thinking?” Qi Sheng didn’t continue the topic. His goal today was to reduce Zhou Yan’s influence on the child, so that the child would have his own thoughts and judgments.
Qi Wenfeng listened to his father’s words and felt a little guilty. He bowed his head and silently chewed his rice. Qi Sheng thought it was very funny.
He gave his son some dishes he usually liked to eat and said helplessly, “son, avoiding things wouldn’t solve anything!”
