Chapter 537: 533. I Still Like This Face of Yours

He Yong had been listening silently on the side; as for the questions Zhang Ran asked, he felt he couldn't get a word in.

Now that there was something for him to do, he also felt a sense of relief in his heart.

At the same time, he also thought of his daughter, He Qing.

Come to think of it, since he had come out, he hadn't celebrated He Qing's birthday either.

When Zhang Ran went to pick up the two little ones from school in the afternoon, he quietly told them about this matter and asked them to prepare a gift as well.

Susu and Taotao were both very excited; it was also their first time celebrating their parents' birthdays.

In fact, both Sicheng and Siyan had long since forgotten their own birthdays.

Sicheng was because of the pressures of life; he simply didn't have the energy to celebrate a birthday. Every day he had to consider how to make money; how could he have any time to celebrate a birthday?

Ever since he turned eighteen, he hadn't celebrated his birthday again.

Siyan was about the same; she had selectively forgotten her birthday because of the Sun family.

So much time had passed that even though their birthdays were approaching, neither of them had noticed.

It was Liu Lu who noticed this matter; it wasn't that she had thought of their birthdays, but rather that Zhang Xiaotao and Susu were acting a bit too obviously.

Liu Lu didn't remember Sicheng and Siyan's birthdays either; it wasn't that she didn't care, the reason was the same as Sicheng's—she had long since forgotten both of their birthdays.

Never mind Sicheng, she had even forgotten her own birthday.

Zhang Xiaotao had said he wanted to keep it a secret, but after Liu Lu prodded him with a few words, it was all spilled.

When Liu Lu learned that Zhang Ran was going to celebrate Sicheng and the others' birthdays, she was also slightly stunned.

Immediately, Liu Lu also began to prepare gifts, especially the gift for her sister-in-law, which had to be prepared with great care.

Although the outside affairs did not affect Zhang Ran, they did affect others, such as Qiu Qianyang.

Ever since the last incident, Qiu Qianyang had begun to use the excuse of his five-billion loss to formally take root within Galaxy Capital.

During this time, he hadn't been idle at all; he was now transferring some of his confidants into Galaxy Capital, striving to gain more say.

The supervision and auditing of finances had also begun to intensify.

However, to some shareholders of Galaxy Capital, these things were understandable; they were actually doing these things themselves.

It was just that Qiu Qianyang had entered Galaxy Capital a bit slowly, and many things had already been carved up.

Although there had been many changes over these years, Qiu Qianyang had never found a suitable opportunity.

Now that the opportunity had come, he naturally needed to grasp more power; these were all things that were beyond reproach.

Furthermore, Qiu Qianyang had also begun to vigorously befriend these shareholders, getting them to support him.

In the eyes of these shareholders, Qiu Qianyang's purpose had no problems.

But Qiu Qianyang knew himself that he was doing this entirely so that Zhang Ran's future move against Galaxy Capital could go more smoothly.

If he could pull in some people who supported him, then when Zhang Ran made his move, these people might not go all out to help Mu Jinyuan.

This was his true purpose, only this purpose was hidden very, very deep!

For once, Qiu Qianyang didn't work overtime today; instead, he returned home early to eat and play with his wife and son, and coaxed his son to sleep.

"Wife, if one day you discovered that I wasn't this current appearance, what would you do?" Qiu Qianyang suddenly said this while holding Lin Huiqin.

Lin Huiqin was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you aren't you, then who else could you be?"

Qiu Qianyang looked down into Lin Huiqin's eyes, his expression very serious: "I am serious."

"I am also serious. You are you, not any other person, even if you were called by another name, it would be the same," Lin Huiqin said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Qianyang's heart shook. He looked at Lin Huiqin and said: "You knew?"

Lin Huiqin said softly: "We are husband and wife. Although we haven't lived together for long, only for a year, I know you very well. Some of your things cannot be hidden from me."

Lin Huiqin had always known that Qiu Qianyang had things on his mind; just as she said, it is very, very difficult for a husband and wife to hide things from each other.

For example, that photo kept in Qiu Qianyang's safe!

Qiu Qianyang might not believe it if he were told, but his safe was opened by his son, not by Lin Huiqin.

After Lin Huiqin finished speaking, she stroked Qiu Qianyang's face and smiled: "This face is still better looking; it's much better looking than the you in the photo."

Qiu Qianyang was silent and speechless; he didn't know what to say.

"How did you know?" Taking a deep breath, Qiu Qianyang still asked; this matter could not be known by others.

Even when Zhang Ran was right in front of him at the time, he hadn't acknowledged him, and had only given a slight hint.

Lin Huiqin said: "Next time you set a password, don't use our son's birthday as the password. It's very easy to guess; at the very least, our son opened it directly."

After saying this, Lin Huiqin seemed unable to hold back: "Why did you have to do this? To hide your identity, you not only had plastic surgery, but you also kept this secret hidden in your heart for so many years."

"Even to hide your identity, you didn't want to get married, and you didn't even want children. Why?"

This was something Lin Huiqin had always wanted to ask, especially after she learned of Qiu Qianyang's secret, but since Qiu Qianyang hadn't spoken of it before, she hadn't asked.

Now that the matter was out in the open, Lin Huiqin couldn't help herself.

"But if you don't want to say it, forget it," Lin Huiqin said again; she didn't want to force Qiu Qianyang.

Qiu Qianyang looked at his wife and finally sighed: "I can't tell you yet. When the right time comes, I will tell you everything from beginning to end."

"As for why I rejected you all back then, I was also worried that things would escalate to an uncontrollable point."

"But there is no need to worry now, because there is someone carrying all the pressure in front of us. Even if the sky falls, he will be the one to hold it up first."

When he said this, Qiu Qianyang revealed a slightly proud look, as if he were proud of that person and also trusted him deeply!

Lin Huiqin was slightly stunned; she had almost never seen such a side of Qiu Qianyang. All along, Qiu Qianyang had been calm, composed, and often expressionless, as if he wanted to hide all his emotions deep in his heart, not letting anyone discover them.

"Alright, anyway, we have plenty of time now," Lin Huiqin said with a smile.

Lin Huiqin was actually a very smart woman; she could guess some things from the events that had happened recently.

At this moment, a person's photo also appeared in her mind; this was the matter that had been reported in the newspapers for the past two days.
