thousand strings

He Qianxian was woken up by the knock on the door, but when he opened the door, no one was seen. A second later, he heard a gasp. Li Baiqing stood at the door of his room and stared at him dumbfounded.

Li Baiqing stepped forward in two steps, staring at his chest. He Qianxian put on the nightgown he picked up on the ground casually, and half of his chest was exposed.

Li Baiqing pointed at him, then pointed at the door, hesitated to speak, and said a complete sentence after a while, "Are you alright?"

He Qianxian didn't want to explain, and asked, "What do you need from me?"

Li Baiqing took a deep breath, pointed to the watch on his wrist, "arrived in Hong Kong at ten o'clock, now it's nine o'clock."

He Qianxian nodded, "I see."

As soon as the words fell, Li Boqing felt a gust of wind blowing, and when the tip of his nose touched the door, he jumped back in fright, and realized that he was rejected by others, his teeth itching with hatred.

He Qianxian went back to the bedroom, picked up his clothes and put them on indiscriminately, and was about to go back to the room to tidy up, when there was a muffled groan behind him, like the discomfort of a hangover.He Qianxian wanted to pretend not to hear, but the other party called his name.

"He Qianxian." His voice was low and nasal.

He Qianxian turned to see Qin An sitting on the bed, holding his temples, with a tired face.His quilt had fallen to his waist, and he could vaguely see his pubic bone. He Qianxian looked away, and Qin An whispered again, "Good morning."

The usual morning greeting seemed a bit abrupt at this time, He Qianxian also asked the morning queen, saying: "Clean up, we are going to disembark." When it was over, he hesitated and asked, "You, are you okay?"

Qin An seemed to be thinking about it and fell silent. After a while, the corner of his mouth raised into a smile, "No problem, see you later."

He Qianxian nodded, took two steps, and turned his head a little uneasy. Qin An was still sitting on the bed and watched him. The two eyes met. He Qianxian was a little embarrassed, but Qin An smiled again, "Forgot something?"

He Qianxian shook his head, and quickly left the room.

Before getting off the boat, He Qianxian ran into Ye Rui, who greeted him and asked him how he slept last night.

Before He Qianxian could make a sound, Li Baiqing came forward, said hello to Ye Rui, put He Qianxian's shoulders, and asked, "Where's your Qin An, aren't you together?"

He Qianxian frowned, and said in a deep voice, "I'm waiting for him."

"Okay then, wait, Miss Ye and I are leaving first." Finally, he leaned over and whispered mysteriously, "Don't worry, I didn't see anything this morning."

After finishing speaking, she gave him a knowing smile, regardless of whether Ye Rui wanted to leave or not, she took her off the boat first.

When Qin An and Frederick appeared in front of him, the guests were almost gone, and the remaining three or two greeted the host who saw them off at the pier.

The three of them walked towards the pier, and Qin An, who was talking to Frederick, suddenly said, "Fred and my mentor are going to live in the He residence for a while, is that okay?"

He Qianxian, who had drifted to the recently renovated clock tower next to the port, suddenly came back to his senses, glanced at Fred, and said, "You can arrange it."

Fred was very happy to say thank you to He Qianxian in Chinese when he learned that he could live in He's house.

"You're welcome." The three of them had already reached the boarding ladder, He Qianxian glanced at the hull of the boat, and the letters EDXIR were shining golden in the morning sun.

Although He Zhai has a big family and a great business, there are very few long-term residents in the house, and international friends like Fred have never been seen before.For this reason, Qin An also invited a translator to accompany him.

The wife of Qin An's mentor, Fred, came to He's house on the second night.He Qianxian was already half asleep with a book at the time, when he heard the butler say that the guests had arrived, and went downstairs to see an Asian woman in her fifties with fair complexion, wearing a simple bun and wearing dark blue Cheongsam, mature and generous, is more like an old Shanghai lady than a medical tutor.

When Fred saw his wife, he couldn't be more happy. He stepped forward for a romantic kiss, which made all the servants in the He residence cover their mouths and laugh.

After the two parted, Qin An introduced: "Yueqiu, my mentor. He Qianxian."

"It's a pleasure to meet you." He Qianxian stretched out his hand, and Yue Qiu smiled, "I heard about you from Qin An. It's a pity that Qin An gave up his medical career."

The topic of meeting for the first time was a bit abrupt, which caused Qin An to cough slightly.He Qianxian withdrew his hand resentfully, and also smiled, "Well, Qin An is very smart, and is very good at everything."

Yue Qiu didn't answer any more, but gave Qin An a meaningful look.

The autumn is coming, so naturally there is no need for translation.Fred does rehabilitation for He Qianxian every morning, and spends most of the rest of the time hanging out with Yue Qiu.

Although there were guests, He Qianxian was as boring as ever.As soon as Qin An arrived home that day, He Qianxian called him to stop.The two sat down in the living room, and He Qianxian asked to see the previous accounts of the He family.

At that time, Qin An was about to pick up his tea, and when he heard He Qianxian's request, his fingers froze in mid-air for a long time before he woke up.

He Qianxian has lived in the He residence for more than 30 years, and has never paid attention to the expenses of the He family. On the one hand, he brought it up this time because he really has nothing to do.

Qin An was silent for a second, then nodded: "When do you want it? Do you want the details of all the assets and accounts of the He family, or just the accounts of the family?"

He Qianxian paused, and said, "Just the family's expense account. The company's is too complicated, and I can't understand it. Give me all the existing ones."

He Yunzheng let him read the company report back then, but He Qianxian slept more soundly than any other night.

He Qianxian felt that he didn't say anything funny, but after Qin An heard the words, he pursed his lips and smiled, his brows and eyes showed a smile, "Okay," took a sip of tea, "I'm from the company and I'll take a look."

There were forty or fifty account books sent in the evening. He Qianxian flipped through a few pages, all of which were trivial details, so small that they clearly recorded the purchase of a potted plant, and flipped through a few more pages. Throw it aside, turn on the TV, and see Bai Xufeng.

Bai Xufeng invested in a movie, appeared on the entertainment news, dressed neatly, and promoted it with the actors.He Qianxian frowned and changed the channel.

When the knock on the door rang, He Qianxian was about to turn off the TV.Qin An came in, looked at the ledgers on the table, they were neatly stacked, and only one was opened.He pointed to the ledger, "Is there any problem?"

He Qianxian put down the remote control, picked up the account book just now, and said, "Are there only details?"

"No, my father made a summary of the accounts in the past, and I will go through them every month recently, and there is also a summary." Qin An said, and sat down opposite He Qianxian, "It will be summarized every month. Dad would do it on the last few pages, I like to do it on the first few pages."

He Qianxian turned to the last few pages, and sure enough, there was a monthly summary, which was recorded separately by month and category, which was very clear.

"Basically, there will be no problems with daily projects, and the extra expenses will be clearly noted." When Qin An said, He Qianxian had already taken it seriously and did not listen to his words.

Qin An smiled lightly, but said nothing.

After He Qianxian finished flipping through the last few pages of the account, Qin An suddenly got up and said, "You've been reading it for a long time, let's go for a walk."

In fact, it was only 10 minutes, but He Qianxian agreed without hesitation.

He Qianxian only read one-third of these ledgers in a week.He Qianxian has a general understanding of the He family's expenditure items for more than ten years. Although there is a lot of expenditure, there is basically no waste. If you have to say waste, it is probably his expenses.When He Yunzheng was alive, he didn't control his pocket money, basically he gave it to him, but fortunately he didn't have any bad habits, so he didn't spend too much money.Looking at the recent accounts, of course He Qianxian had no expenses, and Qin An didn't see any expenses either.

That night, when He Qianxian arrived at the restaurant for dinner, no one else came down yet.After he was seated, the housekeeper handed him a wet towel, and He Qianxian asked, "Doesn't Qin An pay from home?"

The butler was stunned for a while, and didn't understand what he meant and didn't dare to say anything easily. Fortunately, Fred and his wife came down, so he hurriedly stepped aside.

Qin An had just arrived home, went back to his room to tidy up, went downstairs and kept answering the phone, and just as he hung up the line at the door of the restaurant, the phone rang again, and he picked up the phone without even thinking about it.

Yue Qiu heard him talking on the phone just now, and now he smiled, "Boss Qin, you are very busy."

Qin An smiled awkwardly, and Yue Qiu said, "Just kidding, don't mind." This was said to He Qianxian.He Qianxian paused, before Qin An was seated, raised his chopsticks and said, "Let's eat."

Halfway through eating, He Qianxian saw someone stumbling past the window, it was Uncle Min.Although Uncle Min lives in He's house, he always eats in the room and never comes to the restaurant.He Qianxian understands that Uncle Min has always considered himself the old housekeeper of the He family, and cannot surpass his status.

"Why is Uncle Min down now?" He Qianxian asked.

Qin An looked up, Uncle Min had disappeared in front of the window, he got up, "I'll go and see."

He Qianxian followed and saw Uncle Min squatting under a tree from a distance with a basket beside him. He shivered and took out a bowl of rice and a plate of fish from the basket, and some others came out of nowhere. Here comes Mingbi.Qin An stepped forward to grab him and persuade him to get up, but Uncle Min stubbornly refused.

He Qianxian approached and heard Qin An say, "Dad, don't burn it."

Uncle Min waved his hands, choked up, and said, "Today is Master He's birthday, so we have to celebrate his birthday anyway."

How could He Qianxian not remember that today was He Yunzheng's birthday, and after looking through the photo albums in the study all afternoon, his mood had just calmed down, but now he couldn't help but feel sad again.

"Father, we all remember it in our hearts, but we still don't want to burn it. Let's go back to the room." Qin An tried to pull him again, but Uncle Min still refused. He wiped his eyes with his sleeve and said in a hoarse voice, "You don't understand, you I don’t understand, I know you don’t believe it, but I believe it, I have to burn some money to Mr. He…” He took out his lighter and was about to light coins when Qin An cut it off, “That’s enough Dad, come back with me Room!"

Seeing that the two of them were arguing and were about to argue, He Qianxian said, "Forget it, let Uncle Min burn it."

Qin An raised his head, frowned, stared at He Qianxian for a while, let go, and turned back to the restaurant.Seeing him leave, He Qianxian sighed helplessly. Turning around, Uncle Min looked at him nervously: "Master Qianxian is laughing."

He Qianxian shook his head, then squatted down, and accompanied Uncle Min to burn paper money.After burning the last one, Uncle Min suddenly said: "Qin An's child is stubborn, he didn't mean to show his face to you just now, so don't take it personally."

He Qianxian nodded, and Uncle Min said, "Master Qianxian, I have a heartfelt request."

He Qianxian was helping Uncle Min pack his things, and smiled when he heard this, "Say it, Uncle Min."

Uncle Min's eyes were still burning with flames. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Qin An is a promising kid. I'm very pleased, but I'm about to die now, and I haven't talked about a girlfriend yet." , I was anxious, and told him that he was always unwilling to talk to me, but this child listens to you, you tell him, let him not be too high-sighted, and quickly find a woman to settle down."

These words made He Qianxian think of He Yunzheng again. At that time, He Yunzheng often urged him to get married and have children to start a family. Unfortunately, He Yunzheng left and he was still alone.At this moment, he can fully understand Uncle Min's thoughts. He nodded and agreed to Uncle Min's request.

After dinner, He Qianxian rested for half an hour as usual, and then went for a walk in the yard to digest food.When he reached the door, he turned back and went upstairs to knock on the door of Qin An's room.

It's almost autumn, and the night wind is a bit chilly.The two walked in silence for a while, and came to the garden. The small street lamps in the yard glowed orange, causing moths to flap their wings and bump into each other.There were not many moths, only three or two, but the movement was very loud. He Qianxian looked over and asked, "Can this light be turned off?"

"I'll let someone close it."

The two walked a few more steps, the street lights behind them went out, and the sound of thumping and thumping just now also disappeared.The lights dimmed, and the sky looked brighter.He Qianxian raised his head, and there was a bright moon in the sky, sprinkled with silver light.

"Uncle Min chatted with me for a while just now." He Qianxian said.

Qin An was on the side, and responded in a low voice, but didn't ask what they said.

He Qianxian continued: "Uncle Min hopes that you can find a woman and get married early, let me persuade you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin An interrupted him, "Did he want it, or did you want it?" The two stopped and looked at each other.Under the silver moonlight, Qin An's face was a little cold, and He Qianxian did not hide it, "Of course I also hope that you can get married."

"Why don't I get married? You know the reason better than anyone else." Qin An's tone was calm, but his eyes were aggressive.

He Qianxian turned her head away, "I said before, I will get married."

Qin An stepped forward, and He Qianxian stepped back a few steps. He stepped on the grass, and could even smell the fragrance of the crushed grass.Qin An stopped, staring at He Qianxian's face, "Why can't you accept me?" That night on the boat, he was the one who seduced He Qianxian. With him, but now it seems that He Qianxian was just venting his desire at that time.

Qin An was disappointed, "You can accept Ke Yuxiang, why can't you accept me?" Qin An knew he shouldn't ask this question, but the unwillingness in his heart made him lose his mind, "Why?"

"Because I like him."

Qin An knew the answer a long time ago, but when these words came out of He Qianxian's mouth, they still pierced into his heart like a sharp knife. He nodded with a sneer, and heard He Qianxian continue to say: "When I was at my worst, it was He was with me all the time, not you, Qin An."

"I have been looking for you all those years!" If he knew where He Qianxian was, he would definitely accompany him, "It's not fair, He Qianxian."

This is so unfair!

"But I like him, Qin An. There is never such a thing as fairness in love."

"He's already gone." Qin An gritted his teeth and grabbed He Qianxian who wanted to leave.

"Let go of me." He Qianxian waved his hand without breaking free.

"What if I don't let go." Qin An's voice was deep and determined, a tone He Qianxian had never heard before, He Qianxian struggled again, Qin An pulled him into his arms, and took a bite bit on his neck.

He Qianxian was in pain, so he pushed Qin An away suddenly, and punched Qin An's abdomen involuntarily. Qin An didn't dodge, but clasped his hands firmly on He Qianxian's shoulders.He Qianxian felt Qin An's body tremble violently, but his lips were still kissed.His lips were bitten, and just a second later, He Qianxian's mouth had a strong fishy smell. He pushed Qin An away and cursed: "You are crazy, Qin An!"

"Yes, I'm crazy!" Qin An was about to kiss him after he finished speaking, but He Qianxian punched him in the face again.

"What are you doing?!" A woman's voice came from afar.When He Qianxian saw two figures rushing over from the path, he let go of Qin An's clothes.Fred and his wife approached, with a distance of one meter between them, Qin An wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, Yue Qiu saw it, and said, "Xiao An, you are bleeding."

Qin An shook his head, "I'm fine."

"What happened? A fight?" Yue Qiu asked.

Qin An didn't answer, Yue Qiu looked at He Qianxian, she looked at He Qianxian, the perpetrator, obviously unfriendly, He Qianxian frowned, turned around and left unceremoniously.

After walking a few steps, he heard Yue Qiu scolding Qin An behind him: "Is there something you young couple can't say well, you have to do it?"

Qin An's voice was very low: "It's my fault, I made him unhappy."

Yue Qiu snorted coldly, "Then you deserve it!"
