238: Chapter 238 Family Dinner

"Really... do we really have to go in?"

Qin Yushang felt a little apprehensive. Although she had already prepared herself mentally, now that they were actually at the entrance, she still felt a bit hesitant.

"Don't worry, I'll draw the fire for you."

Qin Yun squeezed her hand and gave a slight smile. Qin Yushang gained a bit more confidence and said with a deep breath,

"Okay."

..."Xiao Shang, Xiao Yun, why didn't you two say something before coming back!"

Su Yunxi spoke immediately upon seeing her two children return. Meanwhile, Qin Yun felt a bit awkward; looking at Comrade Qin Shucheng, who was sitting to the side scrolling through his phone, he gave a light cough.

"Dad, Mom, I have something to announce to you, so... I want to take you out to eat today, just the four of us."

Seeing Qin Yun's serious expression, Su Yunxi seemed to realize something.

"What happened? Or did you get into trouble again?"

"No, it's just... I have something I want to tell you, and it's not very convenient to talk here, so I thought about taking you out."

"Alright then, let's go to Jintang Restaurant! It just so happens I haven't eaten their food in a long time."

Qin Shucheng said slowly. Su Yunxi suddenly turned back to look at him and said, "Old Qin, you're going too? Haven't you avoided eating out for a long time?"

"Heh, shouldn't one change their taste occasionally? Besides, these two children clearly have important matters to discuss. As parents, what's wrong with following their arrangements? It also saves you from having to cook yourself."

Seeing that their parents had agreed so peacefully to their terms, the two saw their chance and immediately led them to the car.

Jintang Restaurant. Qin Yun felt a wave of emotion as he returned here.

After all, he had met Sister Yan here once, and scenes of the past surfaced in his mind like memories.

Because Qin Yun had booked a private room in advance, various delicacies were already laid out on the table as soon as the four of them entered.

"Xiao Yun, this is..."

Both Qin Shucheng and Su Yunxi felt that something was not quite right, but Qin Yun spoke softly.

"I booked it in advance. After all, the matter I want to discuss with you today is a major one and can't be decided rashly. But let's eat first; we'll talk after we finish the meal."

Qin Shucheng and Su Yunxi didn't understand what Qin Yun was up to. Su Yunxi simply went to Qin Yushang's side and asked in a low voice,

"Xiao Shang, what exactly do you two want to tell us?"

Qin Yushang's cheeks turned a few shades redder, and her tone was a bit flustered. "This... it's better to let Brother say it! It won't feel the same if it's told in advance."

"Even I can't know beforehand? Is it that ceremonial?"

Su Yunxi was somewhat puzzled, but she still let out a light sigh. "Since you don't want to tell us early, then... let's wait until after the meal!"

After the four of them took their seats, Qin Yun was the first to stand up and pour fine red wine into Qin Shucheng and Su Yunxi's glasses, saying,

"Dad, Mom, you've worked hard all these years. This is my toast to you; I'll drink first as a sign of respect."

Seeing Qin Yun's unusual behavior, the two felt even more strange, but they still drank the wine he offered.

In the next moment, Qin Yun went to their side and started chatting warmly, asking after their well-being; he was like a completely different person compared to the usual troublemaker son.

Seeing Qin Yun like this, Qin Yushang couldn't help but burst into laughter. She hadn't expected him to actually take the girls' advice and treat this meal from the perspective of a son-in-law.

At first, Qin Shucheng and Su Yunxi thought Qin Yun had made some mistake that required them to step in and fix.

But it turned out not to be the case at all. Qin Yun seemed to truly be having a heart-to-heart with them. As time passed and the alcohol took effect, the three of them began to speak freely, and the atmosphere in the private room became cheerful.

As the meal came to an end, Qin Shucheng saw that the time was about right and immediately said,

"Alright, son, tell Dad, what exactly is going on? You've been too unusual today. Look, we've finished the food and the wine; it's time you told us, right?"

"That's right! Xiao Yun, Xiao Shang, what do you want to discuss with us? It can't be that you came specifically just to show your filial piety!"

Qin Yun took a deep breath and then looked at Qin Yushang, who slowly took out a report and handed it directly to the two of them.

It was the Paternity Test Report for Qin Yun and Qin Yushang. When the two saw this, their expressions changed.

"Dad, Mom, I'm not the Qin Family's biological child, right?"

Qin Yushang said slowly. Qin Shucheng and Su Yunxi looked at each other, their hearts skipping a beat.

Oh no, the secret couldn't be kept hidden after all.

"No, that's not it. Xiao Shang, you are our child. After all, for so many years, we have always treated you as our own. Even if there's no blood relation, we are still a family."

Su Yunxi slowly stood up and said anxiously, while Qin Shucheng added calmly,

"That's right. You are actually the child of our good friends. They were Narcotics Police, heroes who sacrificed their lives during a mission, so we decided to raise you. But this wasn't out of responsibility; it was because when we saw how tiny you were, we especially liked you. Don't think too much; no matter what happens, you are a daughter of our Qin Family."

After Qin Shucheng said this, Qin Yushang's eyes grew moist, and she said,

"Dad, Mom, thank you... thank you..."

Su Yunxi slowly embraced Qin Yushang. "My Xiao Shang, don't cry, don't cry. Mom is right here! You will always be Mom's darling. So, you didn't treat us to this meal just to tell us this, did you?"

At this point, Qin Yun shook his head. "No, there's one more thing."

"What?"

Before the two could understand what was happening, Qin Yun slowly knelt down before them.

"Dad, Mom, I've liked Xiao Shang for a long time, I love her so much. So, please allow me to be with her!"

Qin Shucheng, Su Yunxi: !!!!

"Ah?"
