Chapter 338 - 338 338 Mother

338: Chapter 338 Mother Son 338: Chapter 338 Mother Son Qin Han’s words were so clear, Zhong Wanshan couldn’t not understand what he meant.

He nodded and said, “I understand, Senior Brother.

I’ll go to the Wu family to call off the engagement tomorrow!”

“Hmm!”

Zhong Wanshan then said to Zhang Henian, “Brother Zhang, after I call off the engagement at the Wu family, I’ll arrange an engagement ceremony the day after tomorrow!

Let’s set these two kids’ marriage up.

What do you think?”

“I’ll follow Older Brother Zhong’s arrangements!”

And just like that, Qin Han set up the marriage between Zhang Yalin and Zhong Yuanliang.

Perhaps feeling that Qin Han had done her a huge favor, Zhang Yalin specially added two dishes to the noon meal, and everyone ate with joy and contentment.

Zhang Henian was happy because his granddaughter finally had a future to look forward to, and he didn’t have any more concerns.

The only one was Zhong Yuanliang, eating with his head low and a bitter look on his face.

Seeing Zhong Yuanliang like this, Zhang Yalin couldn’t stand it and said fiercely, “Is marrying me that much of a loss of face for you?”

“No…

not at all.

I just haven’t adjusted to the idea yet!” Zhong Yuanliang quickly explained.

“I’m about to become a married woman and I’m not half as sissy as you!” Zhang Yalin declared with imposing determination, causing Qin Han and Zhang Henian to roll their eyes helplessly.

In the evening after work, Qin Han went to pick up Song Yuwei as usual.

Seeing Song Yuwei coming out of the company, he smiled and got out of the car.

But as he got out, Qin Han saw a woman with disheveled hair and plain clothes, her face bearing a look of misery, accompanied by a child around five or six years old.

The little fellow held his mother’s hand, showing an understanding beyond his years and a curiosity about the urban jungle.

Song Yuwei, seeing this, felt compassionate, while Qin Han, although also looking at the mother and child, focused more on the child.

Song Yuwei opened her purse, took out a stack of cash, but Qin Han grabbed her hand.

Song Yuwei looked at him, not understanding.

Qin Han was never a heartless person.

Why would he stop her?

Qin Han turned back to the car, took out some snacks that were prepared for Didi, walked over to the mother and child, crouched down, and said to the little one, “Hungry, huh?”

Seeing the child’s curious gaze, Qin Han’s face broke into a warm smile.

The sudden approach of a stranger made the woman hold her child tighter, wary, as if her frail body could burst forth with endless energy at any moment.

She seemed ready to fight for her life if Qin Han dared to have any designs on her child.

The child looked at the bag of exquisitely packaged snacks with childish longing in his eyes, and swallowed instinctively, but still shook his head gently, sensibly saying, “Mommy said we can’t take things from strangers.”

His eyes held a heartbreaking firmness.

Song Yuwei’s eyes unexpectedly filled with tears watching this scene.

She had been an orphan and had later adopted Didi.

She couldn’t bear to see scenes like this.

Qin Han smiled faintly, handed the snacks to the child, and said, “We’ve talked, so we’re friends now, not strangers.

Don’t believe me?

Ask your mom.”

The child looked up at his mother, is that really the case?

Seeing the hopeful look in her son’s eyes, the plainly dressed woman finally couldn’t bring herself to refuse and gently nodded.

She knew that the couple before her probably wouldn’t harm them nor did they have any reason to.

She didn’t recognize the car they drove, but this young man and woman were clearly wealthy.

They were only acting out of sympathy.

She was loath to accept charity from this society because she feared it would strip her son of his dignity, but it was a world that would not give a single chance to her and her child.

Impoverished and struggling even for food and warmth, let alone snacks, they found it hard to get by.

“Thank you, Uncle,” the child said politely as he took the snacks, his face lit up with joy.

Qin Han smiled faintly, gently ruffled the child’s hair, and turned to the woman, saying, “If you want to cure his illness, go to Qin’s Clinic.”

“Thank you,” the woman almost hoarsely eked out the two words.

The woman firmly etched the four characters of Qin’s Medical Clinic into her heart, knowing that as long as there was even the slightest glimmer of hope, no mother would ever give up on her child.

This was maternal love, and also the greatest thing in this world.

After softly voicing her thanks, the woman led her child away.

As the mother and son slowly disappeared into the distance, Qin Han, who had been a person of two lives and had seen countless down-on-their-luck orphans and widows, was not easily moved.

However, each time he saw such a scene, he could not remain entirely indifferent.

Looking at Song Yuwei beside him, a touch of melancholy appeared in Qin Han’s eyes as he looked up at the sky.

“No one in this world is to be pitied, the most pitiable are the orphans and widows,” Qin Han said softly.

Hearing Qin Han’s words, a tender look crossed Song Yuwei’s face, for she knew that Qin Han had also been an orphan since childhood.

Though he was more fortunate than she was, having been raised by an uncle, Song Yuwei also knew that Qin Han’s mother had been played with emotionally and abandoned by a man.

Perhaps that was the reason for Qin Han’s self-destructive behavior in those years.

At that moment, Qin Han’s thoughts also turned to the young Song Yuwei, and he stood up, took her soft little hand in his, and smiled gently.

Then, he led Song Yuwei into the carriage.

All the way, Qin Han said nothing, and Song Yuwei knew he was still preoccupied with the mother and son from earlier.

She understood Qin Han’s intention: it was better to teach a man to fish than to simply give him a fish.

Moreover, from the woman’s behavior just now, it was clear she did not want to accept anyone’s charity.

They were poor, but they had their dignity.

Though dignity might be worth nothing to the poor, it was all they had left as their last treasure.

Song Yuwei understood this feeling all too well because, for a time, she and Didi had lived in such a way.

The only difference was that they had a place to stay.

“Yuwei, do you think we should invite the Song family to our wedding?” Qin Han asked with a smile.

After thinking for a moment, Song Yuwei said, “Let’s invite them.

After all, in a way, they are family.”

“When my father came yesterday, I mentioned the wedding to him, and he also suggested inviting the Song family.”

“We don’t interact much with them, but out of sentiment, it still ought to be done.”

“What do you think?

If you dislike them, we don’t have to invite them.

Honestly, I don’t see the wedding as that important.”

“As long as you treat me well, I will be completely content,” she said.

Qin Han turned back and gave Song Yuwei a tender look, saying, “Let’s invite them.

It’ll be livelier that way!”

“The wedding must take place!

I don’t want you to have any regrets in this lifetime.”

“Mhmm!” Song Yuwei said with a sweet smile.

Meanwhile, in a Siheyuan far away in the capital.

The elder in black clothes and a masked face was fuming with rage, “A bunch of good-for-nothings, how could you be deceived like this?

What use do I have for you?”

“This isn’t the complete Thousand Gold Elixir formula, rubbish!

Rubbish!”

Several black-clothed individuals knelt beside the elder, trembling and not daring to speak, fearing they might draw his ire upon themselves!

After cursing for a while, the elder in black slowly sat down on the chair.

It took a while before he spoke, “Ming Xizhi, you didn’t touch them, did you?”

“No, we thought that attacking Ming Xizhi would be disadvantageous to us, so we waited until he left before we made our move!”

“Hmm, at least you’re not completely foolish!” the elder said blandly.

“Leak the information about that kid by Qin Han’s side to Red Sun!”
