Chapter 2196 He Suddenly Raised His Head and Looked Straight at Her...

The 21st looked straight at her...

Tan Qingqing's thoughts were so occupied by memories that she didn't even hear Zhang Minghui call her twice when the car started back on the road.

It wasn't until the car stopped in front of the home she had been away from for four years that she was brought back to her thoughts by the familiar scenery and regained some clarity.

"Qingqing, I'm home."

Zhang Minghui looked at her sideways and said with a smile.

In four years, the only thing that hasn’t changed in G City is the villa area here.

No matter how much the city has changed, this place is still as familiar as it was then.

Amid her aunt's surprised call of "Sir, the lady is back, sir, the lady is back!", Tan Qingqing followed Zhang Minghui, who was carrying the suitcase, into the villa and into the living room.

She saw her father, Qin Mu, standing up from the sofa after hearing the voice.

The father and daughter looked at each other. Tan Qingqing's eyes quickly turned red at her father's joyful and excited expression, and she said, "Dad, I'm back." Her red lips overflowed.

The corners of Tan Mu's mouth moved, and a gratified and kind smile appeared on his face that had been tempered by time. He opened his arms and hugged his daughter tightly who was finally willing to go home.

"Qingqing, just come back."

"Dad, I'm sorry."

"Silly girl, why are you sorry to Dad?"

Tan Mu let go of Tan Qingqing and said to Zhang Minghui, "Xiaohui, thank you for picking up Qingqing."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Tan Qingqing again, "Qingqing, it's such a long journey, you go back to your room and take a shower before coming down for dinner. Dad will cook you two dishes. Xiaohui, let's have dinner here."

"good."

Tan Qingqing smiled and nodded.

There was no need for an aunt here, so she helped Tan Qingqing carry the suitcase upstairs.

Pushing open the door to the room, the first thing you see is the family photo on the small table in front of the bed. In the crystal photo frame, she has a bright smile, her gentle and beautiful mother, and her handsome and gentle father.

Tan Qingqing pursed her lips, said "thank you" to her aunt, took the suitcase and entered the house, closing the door.

"Mom, I'm back."

She knelt down and reached out to touch her mother in the photo.

My heart no longer hurts as much as before, it seems to have been numbed by the pain.

Downstairs, Zhang Minghui followed Tan Mu into the kitchen.

Seeing the prepared ingredients, his eyes moved slightly and he asked with a smile, "Uncle Tan, do you know Qingqing is coming back?"

"Zi Yi called me and told me."

Tan Mu shook his head lightly, "Qingqing didn't tell me when she came back."

Zhang Minghui suddenly said, "No wonder, Qingqing also said just now that no one knew about her return this time."

——

After dinner, Zhang Minghui did not stay at Qin's house anymore.

After he left, Tan Qingqing said to Tan Mu, "Dad, I want to see my mother."

"Well, let's go now."

Qin Mu smiled and nodded.

Tan Qingqing bought her mother An Lin's favorite flowers, and the father and daughter came to An Lin's tombstone.

But they found a bouquet of the same flowers placed in front of the tombstone.

Someone came just now.

There was some emotion surging in her watery eyes, but it disappeared again.

On the side, Tan Mu looked away from the bouquet in front of the tombstone, glanced sideways at Qingqing, and finally landed on the face of the woman with a gentle smile on the tombstone.

She spoke gently, "An Lin, our daughter is back."

"Mom, I'm back."

Tan Qingqing put down the bouquet and knelt in front of the tombstone.

As soon as the words came out, the tears fell uncontrollably.

"Mom, are you okay over there? Qingqing has been unfilial these years and has never come back to see you..."

"Qingqing, wipe away your tears. Although you are not at home,... dad visits you often. Mom, she will not be lonely, and she will not blame you."

Qin Mu paused for a moment, and the name on his lips was changed to his own.

Although Qingqing did not grow up with them, he, as a father, knows best what kind of temper his own daughter is.

Some things, some people... He didn't want to force her.

Tan Qingqing took the tissue from her father and wiped away her tears.

She gave another forced smile and said to An Lin on the tombstone, "Mom, I won't leave when I come back this time. I will often come to accompany you in the future. Don't worry, I will also take good care of Dad and accompany him." of."

Qin Mu raised his hand and patted her shoulder, with a kind smile on his face, "Let's go home. You have a good sleep tonight."

After returning home, Tan Mu rushed Qingqing upstairs to rest.

She said that she must be tired and sleepy after flying for more than ten hours. Tan Qingqing was indeed tired and sleepy.

Before coming back, she worked overtime for two days.

And because I had to come back, I couldn't sleep at night.

On the plane, I couldn't even sleep. I had been escaping for four years and there was so much to prepare for.

But now that I'm home, I suddenly feel that I don't need to prepare anything... I don't need anything at all.

Tan Qingqing, who was extremely sleepy, fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.

If she hadn't woken up from a dream, she should have been able to stay up all night.

Sitting up from the bed, she calmed down, lifted the quilt and got out of bed to drink water.

The hot water I poured before going to bed has turned into cold water.

She took a sip, and without feeling sleepy, she walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and opened the curtains.

Outside, the moonlight poured down from the sky, gently covering this luxurious villa area like a beautiful tulle garment.

The stars here are brighter than those abroad.

She raised her neck, searching for which star in the sky was her mother.

After searching for a long time, I couldn't find my mother. Instead, my neck hurt.

She pressed the back of her neck uncomfortably and looked down at the ground.

His eyes suddenly froze.

The fingers pressing on the back of the neck forgot to move.

It was as if a storm suddenly arose in her inner lake that had finally calmed down due to the dream, and the peaceful inner lake was stirred up into a turbulent wave.

Her breath caught in the turbulent waves.

From such a distance, she couldn't see clearly the faces of the people in the car.

Even the license plate is invisible.

I just saw a black car parked quietly under the dim street lights.

That noble and elegant black is that person's favorite color.

The man sitting in the car leaned against the seat, one arm resting on the lowered window, holding a lit cigarette between his fingers.

He didn't look up.

At least, when Qingqing lowered her head and saw him, she never looked up.

The handsome and sculptured outline outlined by the light of the street lamp became softer and colder under the moonlight, and became more gentle.

Suddenly, he seemed to feel something.

The second before Tan Qingqing looked back in panic, he suddenly raised his head and looked straight at her.

Time seems to have stopped.

Tan Qingqing held her breath subconsciously, whether because she thought she would not be discovered or because she was afraid. As soon as she took a breath, everything in front of her became an illusion.

Like waking up from a dream countless times.

She didn't dare to blink and stared closely at the slightly raised handsome face.

However, soon everything became a dream.

The man in the car threw away the remaining cigarette butts and raised the window glass under her gaze.

The luxurious black car drove away in her sight...
