Chapter 2317 - 38: Qin Jin, Should I Learn to Cook? (Part 3)

Jian Ran saw the old man getting emotional and took the initiative to speak.

"I will... Please take care of yourself. When they have kids, I definitely won’t be taking care of them, you’ll have to do it..."

"Hmph... You wish."

"Haha."

Jian Ran chuckled softly, the old man had grown so adorable with age.

...

Gu Xiran got into the car and opened the window, gazing outside.

She was casually admiring the scenery when a sleek black Lamborghini drove past.

In Yuncheng City, only a handful of people could casually drive a Lamborghini.

Gu Xiran’s beautiful eyes widened, staring at the man in the car, clenching her small hand.

It was Qin Song...

Qin Song was dressed in a suit, sitting with his legs crossed, seriously reviewing the files in his hands.

It was the first time she saw Qin Song like this.

Such a typical corporate man.

Given the car’s direction, he was likely heading back to the Qin Family’s house.

Gu Xiran held her breath, not wanting Qin Song to see her, hastily attempting to turn away, only to see the man, who was reviewing documents, slowly looking out the window.

Their gazes met in the air...

Gu Xiran: "..."

As if for one fleeting moment, time stood still.

But in the next instant, the two cars brushed past each other.

And they could no longer see one another.

Gu Xiran silently reassured herself, surely Qin Song didn’t see her just now; the car was moving too fast.

Even if he did see her, it didn’t matter; it had been three years, Qin Song probably didn’t remember her, not now...

...

On the other end:

The assistant was reporting the afternoon schedule to Qin Song when Qin Song glanced out the window, appearing somewhat pensive.

"Mr. Qin, what’s wrong?"

Qin Song: "..."

Qin Song slightly regained his composure, his gaze returning to the contract in his hand.

"It’s nothing."

Gu Xiran is back.

The woman he had almost forgotten.

Three years had passed.

Time had gone by so quickly.

Qin Song pressed his lips together; these past three years, ever since his health improved, he started managing the Qin Family’s affairs.

Not for any other reason, but so that Qin Jin wouldn’t have to work so hard.

Qin Jin was always busy with this and that... It was clear to Qin Song how tiring it had been.

During the time of his illness, Qin Jin had taken on all of his burdens.

So upon reflection, Qin Song thought he should be more responsible.

Well... truth be told, there was a constant feeling of busyness, incompleted tasks, that kind of fulfillment, was very satisfying.

That sense of fulfillment kept him from overthinking.

Thinking about what kind of relationship he really had with Gu Xiran.

But somehow, with the recent brush past, the long-lost excitement... caught him off guard.

It was somewhat overwhelming.

Qin Song... Perhaps three years ago, it wasn’t just a simple fondness you had for her.

It should have been head-over-heels love.

...

After a two-hour drive, Gu Xiran rested for a while.

She hadn’t really rested since getting off the plane.

As they neared the base, Sister Ping reminded her: "Tang Bao, you need three months of intense training, during this time, you should be staying here."

"Alright, what exactly will I be learning?"

"Combat, firearms training, you know, Director Li is a perfectionist."

"Okay."

Gu Xiran pondered and still felt a bit pressured.

Sister Ping, however, was all smiles.

"After all, the early stage relies on your performance for the special effects to be great later on, Tang Bao, don’t let me down."

"Sure."

Gu Xiran laughed lightly and nodded.

"So during this time, I won’t have any media exposure, right?"

"In theory, yes, but I’ll be releasing news continuously and posting photos of your hard training... sometimes overexposure isn’t beneficial."

"Understood."

Gu Xiran had never doubted Sister Ping’s handling skills.

Spending these three months here, staying close to Qin Jin, seemed like a good choice too.

Gu Xiran’s beautiful eyes widened... She realized the closer the car got to the base, the more her emotions surged.

Indeed, emotions deep down can’t be deceived.

"Tang Bao, Director Li’s production has government support, otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to come here..."

"Okay."

Director Li’s winning of international awards was a pride for the Chinese community.

Thus... naturally he hoped to promote local culture well.

"Tang Bao, if this movie turns out well, you’ll definitely become renowned in Hollywood."
