In the old bungalow, everyone was sitting around the living room chatting and watching the Spring Festival Gala. The atmosphere was lively as everyone talked and laughed.

Both the old man and the old lady, as well as Qin Kang and others, have received many New Year greeting calls and videos. Having held high positions for many years, they not only have many relatives and friends, but also many colleagues and subordinates.

After all, if you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives, and if you are poor, no one cares about you in the city. This is a reality that no one can avoid.

Fortunately, the old man, the old lady, Qin Kang, and the others have become accustomed to it over the years. They are ordinary people and no one can escape from the world.

Qin Lei and Wen Xuan were within the system. Apart from paying New Year's greetings to their elders, the next best thing was to pay New Year's greetings to their leaders, which was relatively easy.

Qin Qing and Qin Lei don't have so many troubles. Qin Lei is still a graduate student, and there are no elders who need to pay New Year's greetings on New Year's Eve. The most they can do is send a message to their teachers and friends.

In addition to chatting with her girlfriends, Qin Qing kept calling Su Qin, but Su Qin didn't answer the phone so far, which made Qin Qing a little worried.

Because the old lady and the old man have already asked several times.

The old lady over there just hung up her cousin's New Year's call and looked at Qin Qing and asked, "Qingqing, why hasn't Su Qin come back yet? What is this kid doing during the New Year?"

Qin Kang stared at his sister with burning eyes. He had already noticed something strange about her. Could something have happened to Su Qin?

Qin Qing could only continue to say perfunctorily: "Mom, don't worry. It will be fine if young people go out to play. Besides, Su Qin is already on his way back."

The old lady was somewhat unhappy. After all, it was rare for the whole family to be reunited like this. Why was Su Qin so ignorant?

The thoughtful old man also noticed that something was wrong. Although Su Qin had just returned not long ago, his interactions with him during this period of time made him feel that Su Qin was not such an ignorant child. He was more capable than many middle-aged people in dealing with people.

What's going on tonight?

The old man glanced at his son calmly, and Qin Kang immediately winked at his sister knowingly. He deliberately picked up the phone and stood up to pretend to answer the phone.

The old lady didn't take it seriously, thinking it was another New Year's call from someone else.

Not long after, Qin Qing also found a reason to follow him out.

When Qin Qing came to the yard, Qin Kang immediately asked: "Little sister, what's going on over there with Su Qin?"

Qin Qing knew Su Qin's identity and situation very well. Moreover, he had provoked the Cao family, so he did not dare to hide it anymore and could only explain it truthfully.

"Brother, no one has answered Su Qin's phone calls. I'm worried that something happened to him." Qin Qing said in a panic.

Qin Kang frowned and said, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing earlier?"

Qin Lei, who sensed something was wrong, also came out at this time, and he quickly said: "Dad, when Su Qin went out, he told me that he was having New Year's Eve dinner with the Su family's bodyguards at a hotel not far away, and he should be back around now. "

"How could you not answer the phone during New Year's Eve dinner?" Qin Kang asked in confusion.

Qin Lei felt that his father was right. He had called Su Qin a few times just now, but no one answered.

Qin Kang thought for a moment and made arrangements: "Qin Lei, go to that hotel to find Su Qin now. If you don't find Su Qin, let me know immediately."

Qin Lei nodded and prepared to go out.

At this moment, the door of the old bungalow was pushed open from the outside, and Su Qin walked in slowly and deliberately drunk.

When they saw Su Qin, everyone was instantly relieved.

Qin Qing ran over quickly and asked with some displeasure: "Su Qin, what have you been doing? Why didn't you answer the phone? Do you know how worried we are about you?"

Su Qin pretended to take out the turned off mobile phone and said slightly surprised: "Ah, aunt, I don't know when the phone automatically turned off. It may be out of power, but when I went out, I told my cousin that I would be back later. It doesn’t take long, right?”

Su Qin knew very well that her aunt's nose was too sensitive, so when she passed by a convenience store, she deliberately bought a bottle of white wine and sprinkled it on herself to cover up the smell of blood.

When Qin Kang came over, Su Qin took the initiative to explain: "Uncle, I'm sorry for making you worry. I just think it's not easy for them to protect me during the New Year. It's right to have a New Year's Eve dinner with them."

As the heir of the Su family, it is not easy for Su Qin to be so considerate to his subordinates.

Qin Kang patted Su Qin on the shoulder with some relief and said, "It's good that you did this. Just pay attention to your phone next time. If you don't answer the phone, the whole family will have to worry."

"I understand, uncle." Su Qin said with a smile.

But Qin Kang didn't feel it. When he patted Su Qin's shoulder, Su Qin endured the pain and forced a smile.

When Su Qin followed everyone back to the living room of the old bungalow, the old lady complained a few words unhappily. Qin Kang and Qin Qing helped Su Qin and said some nice words. Su Qin apologized quickly and coaxed the old lady with sweet words. , the old lady was no longer angry.

Everyone continued to sit in the living room, chat and watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Everyone looked happy, but Su Qin kept forcing a smile, and the pain all over his body made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

When the New Year's bell rings, everyone wishes each other a Happy New Year.

The elders gave the New Year red envelopes that they had prepared long ago to the younger ones. Although Su Qin was not short of money, he was still a child in the eyes of the elders, so he just accepted it after a few words of evasion.

Of course, Su Qin also sent red envelopes to Tuantuan, and also gave one to his sister.

After the old lady and the old man handed out the red envelopes, they went upstairs to rest. If it hadn't been New Year's Eve tonight, they might have rested long ago.

The others chatted for a while and then went to rest. When Qin Qing was about to go upstairs, Su Qin, who was somewhat uncomfortable, called Qin Qing and said, "Auntie, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

Qin Qing was a little confused and asked Qin Lei to go back to the room first.

After everyone left, Su Qin endured the discomfort and stood up slowly. Qin Qing looked shocked when she saw Su Qin's state.

She quickly came over and asked: "Su Qin, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? Did you drink too much? I'll take you to the hospital."

Su Qin said in a deep voice: "Auntie, help me back to the room first, and then I'll tell you."

Qin Qing helped Su Qin slowly go upstairs with doubts, but when she saw Su Qin's uncomfortable look, her heart suddenly tightened.

She knew very well that Su Qin waited until everyone left before letting her help him go upstairs, just because he didn't want to worry the rest of the family.

Although the distance from the living room to Su Qin's room on the third floor was only a few dozen seconds, Qin Qing supported Su Qin and walked for several minutes. Su Qin's every step was a little difficult.

The moment he pushed open the door to the room and entered, Su Qin couldn't bear it anymore.

There was a pop.

The blood on his chest spurted out.

Qin Qing was immediately frightened.
