Chapter 680 : Mingyue Enters the Lord’s Heart (13): Inhumane
Father He couldn’t understand what was going on.
He might not have known other celebrities, but since it was Film Emperor Qin, Father He knew him even though he didn’t know much about the entertainment industry.
Mother He was a big fan of his as well. She was even disappointed when Qin Xiuchen focused on the businesses of the Qin family and only acted in The Realm of Gods.
Their DVD collection at home included all of his works.
The He family was also worried about He Chen. Qu Zixiao was considered a fine lad in the capital’s circle. Hence, Father He felt that it would be hard for He Chen to find a guy like him after the divorce.
When Madam Zhang tried to introduce a guy closer to her age, Father He even wanted to give up trying to introduce guys to He Chen. But...
Father He looked up and saw Qin Ran and Cheng Juan next to Qin Xiuchen.
Qin Ran hid from the public for the past year. Hence, even though Father He felt that she looked familiar, he didn’t recognize her as he wasn’t familiar with the IT or physics industry. But Father He recognized Cheng Juan, who appeared on the news previously.
He was utterly shocked and couldn’t understand what was happening for a moment. He turned and looked at Mother He and the helper.
The helper had recovered from her shock. She then tapped on Mother He’s back and whispered, “Let’s welcome them in.”
Father and Mother He then broke out of their shock and said, “Please, come in.”
The crowd then entered the house.
The rest of the onlookers remained outside.
Madam Zhang was still confused. She hadn’t really understood what Qin Xiuchen had just said. What did she hear, exactly?
Film Emperor Qin was going to ask for He Chen’s hand in marriage?
“Madam Zhang, you were close to them just now. Did you manage to see who those people were?” The rest of the onlookers asked Madam Zhang.
Madam Zhang was confused as well. “I saw Film Emperor Qin just now, but that’s impossible. He Chen is a divorcee and is just a reporter in New Media. Why would Film Emperor Qin...”
How did she attract his attention?
“We weren’t asking you about Film Emperor Qin, we know who he is. We’re asking about the people next to him, did you see who they were?” The onlookers asked as they gathered around her.
It was just a couple of minutes between Film Emperor Qin’s arrival and them entering the house. Madam Zhang was still shocked by his appearance and didn’t pay attention to the people around him.
It was only after hearing what they said that she asked, “Why are you guys so concerned about the people that came with Film Emperor Qin?”
Shouldn’t the focus be on Film Emperor Qin?
“No. Have you seen the cars?” The neighbors showed Madam Zhang to the cars parked outside.
The first car was a black sedan, but the subsequent cars were simply dazzling. Madam Zhang knew that the cars were not normal...
“The cars belong to his friends. The oldest daughter from the He family would never have gotten such a crowd. Even though the first car is just a black sedan, the license plate belongs to the military. Only a powerful family can own it. The second daughter of the He family seems powerful...”
Madam Zhang was shocked. “I just announced that she will never get married. Will I get in trouble?”
Of course, they wouldn’t have imagined that the cars coming the next month would be even more dazzling.
A post became popular on Weibo—
[Oh damn!! It’s them! It’s them again! They suddenly appeared in our neighborhood!! We’ve managed to snap a few photos of them! (Photos attached)]
[Are you that desperate for attention??!!]
[I’m going to report the creator of this post.]
-Replied by the creator- [Please don’t. Here is the person...]
[It seems kinda familiar...]
[I agree...]
[Seems like everyone knows what’s going on.]
[They seemed to have changed some cars. I’m going to cry over how poor I am.]
[I’ve never imagined being able to see these pictures on Weibo and even commenting on them.]
...
In the He family house.
It was a two-story house. They had a huge living room that could fit everyone.
The entire process was just a conversation between Qin Xiuchen, Butler Qin, and Father He. Butler Qin was trying his best to promote Qin Xiuchen while Father He was still shocked.
Chang Ning toured around the house as it was his first time here. He then looked at Father He and asked politely, “Where’s He Chen?”
“You are...” Father He didn’t know who Chang Ning was, but he noticed that Chang Ning was chatting with Cheng Juan as though they were friends and understood that he must be powerful as well.
“I’m He Chen’s friend and one of her business partners, Chang Ning. You can address me as Chang Ning.” Chang Ning introduced himself.
Father He didn’t dare to address him that way, just as he didn’t dare to address Cheng Juan by his name. He then turned to Mother He and said, “Get He Chen down. Ask Jinxin to take time off work and return.”
Father He couldn’t handle the situation. He needed He Jinxin.
He Chen hadn’t woken up yet. Mother He looked at Qin Xiuchen and Qin Ran and headed upstairs to look for her.
The helper saw that as Mother He headed up, she pinched herself.
Mother He knocked on He Chen’s door. She had just woken up and was drying her hair. She then greeted her mother. “Mom?”
Mother He remained at the door and stared at her. She then asked, “He Chen, have you forgotten to tell us something?”
He Chen could hear the commotion downstairs. She knew that Qin Xiuchen was here.
She put away the hairdryer, put on a dark jacket, and headed out before replying, “I’ve forgotten to inform you that the Qin family will be here today.”
Mother He was speechless.
“Have we got some visitors?” Grandma He asked as she opened the door after hearing the commotion.
He Chen smiled and held onto her. She then replied, “Grandma, your grandson-in-law is here.”
...
The matter was done rather quickly.
However, everyone in the He Family, except He Chen, couldn’t understand what was happening.
Butler Qin then took advantage of this and told them the date of the marriage.
Grandma He neither cared about the show business nor the capital’s inner circle, but she knew about Qin Xiuchen. Everyone in the Qin family was attractive, and Grandma He liked him as a grandson-in-law already.
The Qin family didn’t have a big sofa. Hence, only the Qin and He families sat on it and discussed these matters.
Meanwhile, Kenneth and Chang Ning were at the other table discussing other matters.
Pan Mingyue managed to capture the part where they entered the house, and she was reviewing the footage. Lu Zhaoying was next to her, seemingly deep in thought.
Qin Ran was too protective of Pan Mingyue, so it was rare for Chang Ning to meet her. Hence, he immediately talked about 129 with her.
Pan Mingyue was from an investigation family. Hence, Chang Ning felt that she was the best person to manage 129.
Slag Dragon was overseas and had a whole kingdom waiting for him. Hence, he couldn’t work regularly. It would be a miracle if Qin Ran could take on one project per month. He Chen was focused on being a reporter and was only a member of 129 on a freelance basis. Giant Crocodile was even worse.
Chang Ning only recently realized that the founding members of 129 were all freelancers, except for him.
“Director Chang, I’m not able to do it.” Pan Mingyue rejected him. Judging from her expression, she must really think that she couldn’t do it.
Chang Ning was speechless.
Could it be that all your friends are big bosses and you can’t properly gauge your abilities?
Who would’ve gotten an internship at the Inspection Institute in their fourth year and even managed to remove the assistant director from power?
As they discussed, Kenneth was cleaning his gun. He only glanced at Pan Mingyue. He didn’t know who she was, but he was shocked by what Chang Ning said. He then made a mental note to investigate who Pan Mingyue was.
As they discussed, the Qin and He families had decided on the date of the wedding. It would be on the tenth of the following month.
“It will be settled by the Qin family.” Qin Hanqiu said, “I’ll come over with Butler Qin to discuss with you guys about the wedding. Do let me know the guest list so that I can get the invitations done.”
Cheng Juan kept silent until the last part. He then stood up and said, “The wedding should be at the venue that we used previously. It will fit all of us.”
The most important thing was that it was designed rather well.
Qin Hanqiu was then reminded that he shamelessly bought the last piece of real estate in the capital just for the wedding.
“Alright, we should have it there. We won’t be having lunch. Let Xinchen stay here, and we’ll start to work on the wedding,” Qin Hanqiu said as he smiled at Father He.
Father He didn’t dare to reply and kept silent.
Then, they headed out. Chang Ning and Kenneth saw that they were leaving and stood up as well. They also quietly touched their guns.
Father He was speechless after he saw the guns.
What the f*ck.
