Chapter 170: Chapter 162 A Rather Tough Approach_2 After elaborating in detail, a couple of hours had passed. Of course, Mr. Qin also introduced the accompanying Luo Cheng, his cousin. At last, once Mr. Qin had more or less sorted out the family relations, he finally spoke of his ultimate purpose. “Qin Ye, once the business here is settled, you all should come back with us to Jing City! If the family knew about you... they would definitely be overjoyed.” Upon hearing this, Qin Ye’s eyebrows knotted tightly. He then said, “I won’t go.” Mr. Qin was slightly stunned upon hearing the refusal, clearly surprised by his response. Of course, he was also perplexed. “Why?” “Things are fine as they are now, I don’t have any plans to go anywhere else for the time being,” Qin Ye did not explain much. “But since you are Old Man Qin’s grandson, you should definitely go back and recognize your ancestry. Right now, he only has you three siblings left. If he knew he had found you, he would definitely be happy. If you don’t go... I’m afraid it will distress him.” “Because you won’t go, he will definitely come here. At his age, and with his poor health, can you really bear to put him through all this trouble?” He really didn’t expect this cousin to be so stubborn, impossible to persuade no matter what he said. Even his silver tongue couldn’t change his cousin’s mind in the slightest. Qin Ye looked at him, “Then let Qin Yu go with you first.” Qin Yu, standing to the side, had a stunned expression: “...?” Big brother, are you serious? If you don’t want to go, that’s one thing, but why drag him into it? He didn’t want to go either. Moreover, he was still just a child. At this moment, Qin Yu firmly considered himself a child. Mr. Qin’s gaze turned towards Qin Yu, feeling a bit of pity for this younger cousin. He had heard that the boy was already 13 but still appeared only about ten years old. No one from the Qin Family was ever short. So, was this... stunted by malnutrition? What a pitiful plight. He still had to bring him back to their large compound, give him more meat to eat, and exercise well. In that case, he should be able to grow taller in the next one or two years. “Go, all three of you siblings should go, of course, including your younger sister. Everyone must go, not a single one left behind.” Qin Ye had already expressed his own thoughts, whether the other party accepted them or not was not his concern. He was a living person, could they bind him up and take him if he chose not to go? Mr. Qin, looking at Qin Ye’s expression, knew he had not been able to persuade him. So he turned to look at Rong Yan, “Sister-in-law, regarding this matter... could you help persuade him? As soon as Qin Ye agrees, arranging for you to be transferred back wouldn’t be difficult.” He really couldn’t quite understand... As far as he knew, the people of Qin Family Village hadn’t been much help to the three Qin siblings. Could it be that his cousin held some extraordinary sentiment towards these people? Otherwise, why would he sit tight here and even be unwilling to recognize his heritage? Rong Yan arched an eyebrow, not surprised by what he said. But. “I respect all of his decisions.” So, ask her to persuade? It was out of the question. Qin Ye felt touched by his wife’s words... His wife was truly wonderful. Mr. Qin was taken aback by Rong Yan’s response, about to say something more, when Rong Yan tapped her watch on her left wrist, “The two hours you mentioned are almost up, and there seems to be no movement over there yet.” Mr. Qin:... Alright! He’d first ensure things were settled smoothly. Anyway, he definitely wasn’t leaving today or tomorrow, so there was still time to persuade this stubborn mule. Standing up, he then let out a cold snort, “Luo Cheng, go take a walk around the village. If they haven’t said anything, then we don’t need to bother with them anymore, just take action.” Luo Cheng nodded, then turned and walked out. At this moment, Mr. Qin looked towards Tie Zhu, who hadn’t left yet. Considering he was one of the few friends of Qin Ye. With a friendly demeanor, “Brother Tie Zhu, that we brothers were able to recognize each other today, I truly should thank you for that.” If it hadn’t been for him, he probably would have left tomorrow, and then might never come back to this place in his lifetime. Which would mean missing out. Tie Zhu quickly waved his hands upon hearing this, “No need to be so polite, I hadn’t expected it either!” Who would know this affair was just like a big opera performance? Even the playwright wouldn’t dare to write such a story, let alone these common folks... It was something they couldn’t even fathom. “Some other day, I’ll treat you to a drink. It’s getting late now, so, if you’re not busy, why don’t you stay a little longer, and let Luo Cheng walk you back later?” “There’s no need for that, I can just walk back. After all, I’ve traveled this path back and forth countless times. They didn’t bring it up just now, and he was too embarrassed to leave, of course, he also had some gossip... wanted to stay and listen to the outcome. He had heard about enough, and it was time for him to go. Plus, if he walked back, he could make it home in time for dinner. “How could that be...” Mr. Qin didn’t finish his sentence when he heard Qin Ye say, “Then, since it’s still early, you might as well head back now.” As for borrowing a bicycle... that was out of the question, as his wife still needed to ride it! There was no way he would lend it to another man. Mr. Qin: ...Don’t you even have the courtesy to insist on your guest staying? Fortunately, Tie Zhu knew what kind of person Qin Ye was. He took the hint and did not linger any further: “Then I’ll be on my way. If there’s anything, come find me in that house in the town.” “Alright, then take care.” Mr. Qin waved him off, holding a very good impression of Tie Zhu. Rong Yan stood up, “You keep talking, I’ll go check on the kitchen.” She walked directly toward the kitchen. Qin Ye thought about his mother-in-law busying herself alone, which seemed arduous. So he turned to his cheap cousin, “Didn’t you say you’d handle it yourself? Then take your time to think about it.” After saying that, he directly left. If he knew the final result for his cheap cousin was not so satisfactory, then he would come himself tomorrow. Since it wasn’t Qin Shengshi she was marrying, then his grandmother needed to have her status reinstated. When Mr. Qin saw that his cousin headed towards the kitchen, he was somewhat speechless. Wasn’t this a bit too clingy to the wife? The man had barely left, and he was already following close behind. However, with such a beautiful wife, being a bit clingy was probably normal, especially since they hadn’t been married for more than two months! Half an hour later, Luo Cheng returned. Mr. Qin looked at him, “How did it go?” Luo Cheng replied concisely, “It’s already spread throughout the village.” Mr. Qin, hearing this, showed no superfluous expression, “Did he make everything clear?” Luo Cheng nodded, “Yes, everything’s clear. Also, the team leader’s father came out as a witness to help clarify.” Mr. Qin:... It looked like the money and the cigarettes had played their part. However, any intelligent person would know how to choose. “You go to the kitchen and call Qin Ye. We’ll go out together to discuss the grave digging tonight. If we can’t bring the body back, we’ll cremate it and bring back the ashes.” Luo Cheng nodded. He then walked toward the kitchen, but he didn’t go in, because at that moment Qin Ye came out. “I’ll go with you.” With these words, it was clear he had already overheard their conversation in the kitchen. Mr. Qin glanced at him, “Let’s go, then! To prevent any sabotage, we’ll cremate great-aunt’s ashes first.” The three cousins headed outside. Qin Yu ran out from the house and secretly followed them... After hearing they had all left, Madam Rong couldn’t help but sigh, “They wouldn’t really go dig up a grave in the middle of the night, would they?” The thought made things somehow more stressful. “This matter, I think it’s better sooner rather than later, their decision is right,” Rong Yan agreed. Although she didn’t know what Old Man Qin was thinking, she had a feeling... this matter needed to be addressed sooner. Madam Rong:... Couldn’t it wait for tomorrow? Forget it, since she couldn’t wrap her head around this matter. “Girl, what do you think, will Qin Ye go back?” Rong Yan replied, “Going back or not isn’t important, what’s important is...” her eyes fell on the pot, “your dish is about to burn.” Madam Rong, hearing this, turned and saw that things were amiss. “You child, if the pot is burning, you should have said something earlier...” Rong Yan shrugged. She had only just noticed herself...
