So, to prevent Zishu from firing, Xiao Wen released the Fire Phoenix Birdâs flame on these people, surrounded them, and also rescued Qin Xiaoyu and Gu Zishu from the train car.
Hearing Gu Qiaoqiaoâs words, Qin Xuan was stunned. Set a fire? How did they manage that in a car?
Isnât that a very dangerous thing?
Even if there are bad people, isnât Xiao Yu and Zishu also in the car?
If there was an explosion, wouldnât everything be over?
His suspicious gaze turned to his son, Qin Yize, who said softly, "The fire is not what youâre imagining, it can be controlled..."
Qin Xuanâs eyes darkened slightly, and many wild thoughts suddenly emerged in his mind.
He wasnât completely unaware of some matters regarding the Gu Family. From Gu Qiaoqiao to other matters, he vaguely figured out some things.
But this is the Gu Familyâs secret. It must have been revealed under pressing circumstances, but he wouldnât spread it around or dig deeper.
Qin Xuan glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao and said meaningfully, "Qiaoqiao, you donât need to say anything else. When Xiao Wen returns, thank her for me."
"Weâre all family, no need to thank anyone..." Grandma Qin said aloud from the side. As she got older, some things were clearer, but she didnât care much, as long as the children were safe and healthy, everything was fine.
Then she looked at the time and said to Qin Xuan, "It seems your wife still needs some time to recover in the room. Iâll go cook."
Gu Qiaoqiao stood up, "Grandma, Iâll do it. You rest here."
After all, having just experienced a scare, Gu Qiaoqiao worried Grandma Qin wouldnât be able to handle it physically.
But Grandma Qin dismissively waved her hand, "No need to rest, itâs fine. Iâll go and assist you in cooking. Tonight weâll make your and Ah Zeâs favorite dishes."
Then she took Gu Qiaoqiao to the kitchen.
Seeing Gu Qiaoqiao leave, Qin Xuan pondered for a moment, sat next to Qin Yize. The father and son were so close, seemingly for the first time.
Qin Yize was a bit unaccustomed, shifting his body slightly with some unease...
Unexpectedly, Qin Xuan acted as if he didnât notice Qin Yizeâs reaction, mysteriously said in a low voice, "Ah Ze, do you also know about Xiao Wenâs matter?"
Qin Yizeâs eyes flickered slightly and he nodded honestly, "I know a few things..."
"Xiao Wen and Qiaoqiao are not ordinary people." Qin Xuan said confidently.
Some things arenât explicitly mentioned, but for Qin Xuan, they were already understood.
Besides, Grandpa had mentioned it to him before.
And Gu Qiaoqiao obviously didnât intend to hide it from them; otherwise, she wouldnât have given them the peace Buddha pendant when relations were still not good, clearly showing that Gu Qiaoqiao trusted their character despite not being close back then.
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan curiously asked, "Ah Ze, how do you think Xiao Wen sets the fire?"
Qin Yize frowned slightly, shook his head, "I really donât know. When Xiao Wen comes back, you can ask her?"
Qin Xuan tilted his head, looked at his son for a long while, and then said, "Iâll surely ask Xiao Wen when she comes back, but rest assured, I wonât tell your second and third uncles."
What should be said, what shouldnât be, Qin Xuan knew very well.
His second brother absolutely couldnât be told. Ever since the smuggling incident, after the situation was clarified, they were not criminally charged but their illegal gains were confiscated, thanks to Qin Yize and the old masterâs influence.
Now they honestly stayed home, ordered by the old master to reflect behind closed doors, but what they truly thought in their hearts, as his elder brother, he couldnât fathom his second brother anymore.
The third brother was relatively better, very close to him, but now that heâs in politics, itâs better not to let him know about some things.
Despite this, Qin Xuan still felt that life was becoming different than before.
He didnât reject such a change.
Although things kept happening, they always turned dangers into safety. At this moment, he felt as if, in the unseen, a goddess of luck was always blessing the Qin Family and the Gu Family.
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan patted his sonâs shoulder and said in a low voice, "Both my children are the best!"
"Xiao Yuâs performance exceeded my expectations." Qin Yize spoke.
"That child is too naive, pure-hearted. Although this time was thrilling, it also served as a wake-up call for her that the world isnât just sunshine; thereâs darkness too..." Qin Xuan said seriously.
Qin Yize nodded in agreement.
Qin Xuan stood up, looked at his handsome and graceful son, and softly asked, "Ah Ze, youâre not leaving tonight, are you?"
"I took leave from my supervisor and am going back tomorrow."
"Alright, then tonight letâs have a drink together, to celebrate Xiao Yu and Zishuâs safe escape." Qin Xuan raised his voice and said.
Qin Yize concentrated for a moment, then said, "Itâs been a long time since Iâve had a drink with Dad. Today, Iâll have a couple of glasses with you."
Qin Xuan straightened his back and suddenly said, "No wonder Xiao Yuâs tone was still filled with excitement. Now I can even picture the scene. They say sea, land, air, sea, land, air. If it were on the water, it would really be sea, land, air all mobilized. No, now we should add one more, the extraordinary Xiao Wen. I bet that group of people never dreamed they would provoke such people."
"Mm, that group must be regretting it now. However, the net of heaven is vast and wide, yet not a thing slips through; this day would come sooner or later." Qin Yize said calmly.
The successful rescue of Qin Xiaoyu was closely related to Gu Qiaoqiao and his remote command from the Imperial Capital, as his father said, it was indeed a full mobilization.
"Just as Grandma said just now, those people did every possible wrong deed, didnât expect this time to be their end." Qin Yize added.
Qin Xuan nodded, not continuing the topic. He wanted to check on his wife Shen Manru, wondering why she hadnât come out yet.
So he said in a deep voice, "Go to the kitchen and see if you can help with anything. Iâll go to the bedroom to see your mother, she might still not have calmed down..."
After all, this incident was too sudden and scary for the family, and as Xiao Yu said, very exciting, so it needed some time to settle down.
Saying this, without waiting for Qin Yize to reply, Qin Xuan quickly walked towards the bedroom.
Qin Yize stood up, looked towards the bedroom direction. His mother was well protected by his grandmother at home, and by his grandmother and father at the Qin Family, so she never encountered much. Just like he had never told her about the fierce battles he fought on the battlefield.
He feared she wouldnât be able to handle it, and worried that seeing those scars would make her collapse.
Now it seems to be true.
