"Wait a minute... let me think..."
He really felt the face was familiar, but he just couldn’t remember where he had seen it before.
Mr. Qin felt that they were on the right track, and since he was quick-witted, he hinted, "The familiar face you’ve seen might not be her in person, it could also be her child..."
He had heard from the old man that when she left, she might’ve been pregnant!
And sure enough, this hint really opened up Tie Zhu’s mind.
He suddenly thought of someone,
"I think this person looks a lot like my brother’s dad."
Of course, he had never met Qin Ye’s grandmother; after all, she had passed away a long time ago. When she died, he was probably still who knows where, possibly getting pushed around like a dog.
"Who is it?" Mr. Qin’s expression was somewhat excited. Over the years, helping to look for people, there had been many false leads, but whenever they went to confirm, they would return disappointed.
This time, he somehow felt they would find the person.
Tie Zhu was shocked by his excitement and wondered if he had said something wrong?
"... let me take a closer look."
Damn! It really does bear a resemblance.
When Mr. Qin’s father was young, he was a handsome guy known throughout the local area, and he had even been a soldier, quite capable back then.
Even though the family was not well-off, with a wicked stepmother, he had heard that there were many girls who wanted to marry him back then; it was just unfortunate that in the end, he married someone from out of town.
Suddenly, Tie Zhu remembered that Qin Ye’s dad indeed had a father, so surely the person they were looking for must be him.
Otherwise, according to what this man said, wouldn’t it mean that Qin Ye’s dad wasn’t actually born to Grandpa Qin Ye?
The complex relationships tangled his brain.
"... it seems a little like him, and a little not."
Mr. Qin: ...
Whether it looked like him or not, having such a clue was rare, and he felt it would be better to meet the person, especially since he had been delayed here for quite a long time.
Without any more useful leads, he was also ready to return to Beijing.
He had been out for a long while and still had many things to deal with back home.
"Could you take me to meet him first?"
When Tie Zhu heard this, he almost wished he could slap himself for being so talkative.
With a reluctant face, he said, "It’s not that I’m willing to take you there, it’s that my brother’s dad has been dead for many years."
Mr. Qin frowned upon hearing this, "Then take me to meet your brother. I really appreciate it because this is very important to me and our family. And rest assured, whether it’s him or not, I won’t cause any inconvenience to your brother’s life."
Tie Zhu: ...
With things put that way, it seemed like he couldn’t refuse.
With a hesitant and restless heart, he relented with a nod, "Alright then!"
On second thought, considering how the Qin Family had been so bad to Qin Ye’s family, maybe... just maybe the person they were looking for actually wasn’t blood-related.
The moment this rebellious thought materialized, Tie Zhu increasingly felt like the possibility wasn’t entirely without merit.
Otherwise, how could a real grandfather be so cruel to his own flesh and blood? Something was distinctly wrong here!
When Mr. Qin saw he agreed, he became a bit impatient, "Why don’t we go right now?"
Hearing this, Tie Zhu thought, is there really such a rush?
But still, he nodded, "... Sure."
Mr. Qin turned to the person beside him, "Luo Cheng, go borrow a vehicle."
Luo Cheng immediately nodded, handed the wild ginseng back to Mr. Qin, and set out.
Mr. Qin looked at the wild ginseng in hand, feeling it wasn’t quite right to hold onto it.
"Brother Tie Zhu, please keep these safe for me for now."
Tie Zhu: ...
Are you sure it’s appropriate to leave such valuable things with me?
