Asynchronous reading of data from a barcode scanner via RS232 serial port

I have a barcode reader that connects to a PC via the RS232 serial port. I am writing C ++ code to send a command to scan a barcode and get a response on a PC. Currently, the program can correctly send data to the device, but does not read the response from the barcode scanner. In this case, as soon as we send the command to read the barcode, it will respond with a positive or negative confirmation.

e.g:- Send BEEP command.
 1. Host(PC) send a BEEP command to barcode scanner
 2. Barcode scanner make a beep sound and send the acknowledgement back
    to host (PC)
 3. Host (PC) read the acknowledgement

in the lower code, the first two steps work correctly, but I could not write the third correctly. Please help me correct the source code to read the response from the barcode scanner asynchronously.
