Jiang Qi thought about it carefully and said, "Let's talk about my grandpa and grandma first?"
"Yeah." Ming Luochun responded.
"My grandpa and grandma are not together, you know?"
"know."
Jiang Qi's ability to express herself has never been very good, and she would go off topic if she wasn't careful. But Ming Luochun was very patient with her. He could slowly listen to her finish what she wanted to say.
"The relationship between the two of them is like this. My family migrated to Country M when my great-grandfather's generation came. At first, we mainly engaged in the art auction business. Later, my grandfather began to develop the trade industry and established the current H.Y.
As for my grandmother, her family was originally aristocratic family in Country F. They had their own territory and private army. After experiencing the revolution and war, they only had a weapons manufacturing company. Later, in order to achieve positive revenue, they registered a mercenary company.
It just so happened that when they met, my grandfather's trade business needed an escort team, and my grandmother needed business. So the two of them came up with a cooperation, and later..." Jiang Qi stopped talking here. She was hesitating. She didn't know how to objectively describe her grandmother's so-called life stain to others.
"If it's inconvenient, you don't have to tell me." Ming Luochun saw her hesitation and spoke first.
"Oh. It's not inconvenient at all. It wasn't a secret in the first place." Jiang Qi glanced at him and said frankly, "Later, in order to make the cooperation between the two sides more in-depth and stable, and also to gain the reputation and support of my grandmother's noble status, my grandfather began to pursue my grandmother.
My grandmother was only in her twenties at the time and was naturally bewitched. They got married soon after. My grandfather had been a playboy since he was a child and had many mistresses. When my grandmother was pregnant with my father, one of them came to her house.
My grandmother then realized what kind of person my grandfather was. She originally wanted to divorce him directly, but she didn't sign a prenuptial agreement before marrying my grandfather. However, my grandfather transferred all the shares and property under his name to his childhood sweetheart before the marriage.
If she divorced, my grandmother would not only lose everything, but also have to give up half of her property, which was not worth it. She made a decision after thinking about it for a night. Although my grandfather was not a good person, he was really capable. She almost bankrupted herself and supported H.Y to tie all the interests of her grandfather and me together, making it impossible for my grandfather to divorce her. No matter how many children he had outside, my father was the only legal heir of my grandfather.
Later, they came clean with each other, and my grandmother took my father back to Country F to settle down. Up to now, the two of them have only a marriage in name only and only exchanges of interests. "
After Jiang Qi finished speaking, she waited for Ming Luochun's response. But he just looked at her, and when Jiang Qi looked back at him, she seemed to see the confusion in his eyes.
Because she ended it a little suddenly, Ming Luochun hadn't yet reacted to what Jiang Qi wanted to express, but based on the information she had just given him, he also needed to digest it, so he didn't know what to say in response.
Jiang Qi could only continue to speak: "So although I call him grandpa, strictly speaking I am only my grandmother's granddaughter, and I don't have much contact with him. I didn't even meet him before I was eighteen. And for some reason, my inheritance rights in the family directly skipped my father, which means that my grandfather and I only have a working relationship so far. There is no connection or emotion related to relatives. So you don't have to pay attention to him at all, he has nothing to do with us."
After hearing Jiang Qi's words, Ming Luochun looked at her in a daze. After a moment, he asked, "Why are you telling me this, sister?"
"What, why?" Jiang Qi was also a little confused. Was there anything wrong with what he had just said?
"Why would my sister want to tell me this?"
"Because..." Jiang Qi was also stunned. Yes, why did she explain all this to him? So that he wouldn't have to worry about her grandfather? But from the perspective of her grandfather's social status, as long as the two of them didn't get married, her grandfather would never have any intersection with the Ming family.
But why did she tell him this?
she does not know.
While Jiang Qi was still thinking about the reason, her phone rang again, but she did not check the caller ID immediately but subconsciously looked at Ming Luochun to ask for his opinion first.
"Sister, you go ahead and do your work first." Ming Luochun was still considerate and gentle.
"it is good."
Jiang Qi only looked at the phone after getting the other party's consent. It was Tang Xin calling: "Hello? Xinxin."
"Qiqi, good evening!" The other party's cheerful voice clearly showed that he was in a good mood.
"Good evening." Jiang Qi replied in a slow voice, as if coaxing a child, "It's so late, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"I got the concert tickets you wanted." Tang Xin acted like a kid seeking credit.
"Thank you, thank you for your trouble." Jiang Qi was not surprised.
"You're welcome!" It is a very happy thing to be needed by Jiang Qi.
"Then when should I give it to you?" Tang Xin asked. The Jiang family was not a place she could go to casually.
After hearing Tang Xin's words, Jiang Qi thought for a moment and asked her, "Xinxin, is there a jewelry auction exhibition at the Shangnan Art Center the day after tomorrow?"
Tang Xin thought about Jiang Qi's sudden question and replied, "Shangnan Art Center... there seems to be a show. The organizer also sent me an invitation letter and brochure. What's the matter?"
"Then I'll go get it the day after tomorrow, and then you can give it to me."
"But, I'm not interested in the jewelry exhibition, and there's no need for me to go there."
"Just consider it as accompanying me."
"You...when did you start to be interested in this kind of exhibition?" Tang Xin wondered.
"I'm just bored." Jiang Qi looked like she didn't want to explain, but she didn't know what excuse to come up with.
"Okay, then we'll see you the day after tomorrow?"
"Well, see you the day after tomorrow."
The two said good night to each other and hung up the phone.
While Jiang Qi was talking on the phone, Ming Luochun stayed quietly by the side, looking out the car window.
Jiang Qi looked to her side out of habit as she took the phone away from her ear.
The night breeze happened to blow in and gently ruffled the black hair that naturally fell on his forehead. Her gaze went up to his eyes.
She paused for a moment.
I wonder what he was looking at at this moment? Or maybe he was not looking at anything. But his beautiful eyes were no longer as gentle as usual when he looked at her, but were filled with a silent and calm expression.
A chill instantly ran up her tailbone. Jiang Qi was frightened. She had seen these eyes before and they were very familiar to her. The owner of these eyes seemed to be someone she was afraid of, no, she should be in awe of.
Ming Luochun heard that Jiang Qi's conversation seemed to be over, so he looked at her, and happened to run into her gaze, which was staring at him blankly. He clearly saw the expression in her eyes at the moment.
