Preparing for the Worst
Why did Sixth Uncle have trouble sleeping and eating these days? Ever since he had talked with Elder Long that day, Sixth Uncle had been somewhat worried. He had guessed what Elder Long was thinking. Elder Long just wanted to use them to get rid of the Qin Family, and they wanted to use Elder Long's influence to kill Qin Changan. In this way, they would have a common goal, which was equal to common interests. That was why they could work together.
But now, Elder Long only cared about his own interests, regardless of Sixth Uncle's life and death. Of course, Sixth Uncle would not agree. Therefore, after talking with Elder Long that day, Sixth Uncle was dubious about what Elder Long had said. He did not give up, but inquired about it through his own connections. Recently, more and more unfavorable news came out, which made Sixth Uncle somewhat angry with Elder Long.
What did Qin Changan say? Qin Changan's news was about some targets that the Chang 'an family had transferred benefits to in recent years, especially through whom. Of course, it involved Sixth Uncle. Only Sixth Uncle had such a great ability. Secondly, some of the targets that the Chang' an family had transferred benefits to had fallen from power, while some were still in power. Therefore, this was the most terrible thing. What was more terrible was that these things were told by Qin Changan. Obviously, Qin Changan had chosen the path of hurting himself and his enemy.
Secondly, the Joint Investigation Group, which had been suspended, had made some moves recently again. Not only had they entered the headquarters of the Chang 'an family for investigation many times, but they had also gone to the subsidiary companies under the Chang' an family to investigate. Sixth Uncle was somewhat anxious. Now that the Chang 'an family was under their control, it was obvious that something had gone wrong.
In the siheyuan, Sixth Uncle sat alone at the teahouse, drinking tea. Unconsciously, he lit a cigarette, which he had quit for a long time. The cigarette was the most common Central Hòi 0.8, which he used to smoke. No matter where he went, he would take it with him. Now that he suddenly started smoking again, it could be seen that Sixth Uncle was very upset.
Today, his eldest daughter came to visit him. As soon as she entered the room, she saw that the room was full of smoke. She walked over in surprise and said, "Dad, why did you start smoking again? Didn't the doctor tell you to quit? Aren't you afraid that your old disease will come back if you keep smoking?"
"I'll only smoke one. I'm craving the taste. If you say you don't want to smoke, then I won't." Sixth Uncle put out the cigarette. He raised his head and smiled at his daughter, who always liked to cry when she was young. In the blink of an eye, she was already a grandmother. Time passed so quickly. The outside world had already undergone earth-shaking changes, but some things seemed to have never changed.
At this time, one of Sixth Uncle's henchmen came in and told him that Ze Yuan was here. Ze Yuan came in immediately. He smiled and greeted Sixth Uncle's daughter. "Sister Hua, why are you here? I haven't seen you for a long time. How have you been?"
"Zeyuan, this is my home. Why can't I come? What are you saying?" Sixth Uncle's daughter was a bit unhappy.
Ze Yuan laughed and said, "Sister Hua, I didn't mean that. You still have the same temper. By the way, I heard that your eldest son went somewhere recently. That boy is quite smart and has a sense of propriety. I think he will have a bright future."
Sister Hua's face lit up when she heard Ze Yuan praising her son. Both of her sons were quite capable. Of course, the main reason why they could progress so quickly was because of their family background. Otherwise, how could they progress so quickly even though they had the same ability? Sister Hua smiled when she heard Ze Yuan praising her son.
Seven o 'clock?
Sixth Uncle said at this time, "You go and talk to your mother. I have something to talk to Ze Yuan about."
After his daughter left, Sixth Uncle asked Ze Yuan to sit opposite him. He poured a cup of tea for Ze Yuan. Ze Yuan frowned and asked, "Sixth Uncle, why did you call me here in such a hurry? What's wrong?"
"Ze Yuan, I always feel that something is wrong. I'm afraid we have to prepare for the worst," Uncle Liu said straightforwardly. This sentence directly stunned Ze Yuan. Why did they suddenly have to prepare for the worst?
Ze Yuan asked subconsciously, "What's the worst?"
"That is, Qin Changan will completely detonate the Chang 'an System and let everyone die with him. At that time, I guess we will be in trouble. Now that the Chang' an System is in our hands, we have paid a great price. If the matter is thoroughly investigated, all our efforts will be in vain, and our family will also be affected. So we have to prepare for the worst," Sixth Uncle said slowly. The more he said, the more he felt the pressure.
Ze Yuan shook his head and said, "Sixth Uncle, I don't think Qin Changan will do that. If he really does that, the Qin Family will eventually give up all the benefits they have gained this time. It is meaningless to do that."
Sixth Uncle squinted and said, "He has already separated the Qin Family from the Chang 'an System. It may not have much impact on the Qin Family. Now I think he is playing a big game of chess. We have all become his chess pieces, and he himself is also a chess piece on this chessboard." The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
Ze Yuan continued to ask, "Sixth Uncle, anyway, there is still Elder Long. He is so powerful."
Sixth Uncle said seriously, "I'm afraid that even he can't protect himself at that time. You should know that Elder Long and the Qin Family are sworn enemies. Zhu Qinghuan might have been killed by him. Besides, now that he has appeared again, I don't believe that the Qin Family doesn't know about it. I'm afraid that the Qin Family will also plot against him, "Sixth Uncle said seriously.
Ze Yuan found it funny and said, "The Qin Family doesn't have this ability, does it?"
Sixth Uncle suddenly raised his head and said with his eyes lit up, "Ze Yuan, have you forgotten about the Zhu Family? Back then, Old Master Zhu couldn't protect himself, so he had no chance to save the Qin Family. As a result, his daughter died in an accident. Old Master Zhu didn't know about it. Nowadays, the Zhu Family is not the Zhu Family anymore. Not to mention the power that Old Master Zhu has accumulated over the years, Zhu Weiguo's status in the military and the son-in-law of the Zhu Family. Do you think that Elder Long can defeat him? The most important thing is that Zhu Qinghuan might have been killed by Elder Long. This is no longer a matter of the Qin Family. Instead, it involves the Zhu Family. If the Zhu Family really takes action, Elder Long will be in danger. This time, we are so close to Elder Long. At that time, we don't know what will happen. Of course, these are the worst results, and they may not happen. "
Ze Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Sixth Uncle, just tell me directly. What should we do in the worst case?"
Sixth Uncle thought for a while and said slowly, "That is to cut ties with the family. Everything will be related to us in the end. When the day comes, we can lose our interests or sacrifice ourselves, but we can't let the whole family be in danger. Do you understand?"
Ze Yuan didn't expect that it would be so serious. However, he had always trusted Sixth Uncle. Without hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "I understand."
While Sixth Uncle and Ze Yuan were preparing for a rainy day, Qin Sheng still didn't know what had happened in Beijing.
Qin Sheng didn't know what had happened in Beijing yet. Maybe it was not urgent, so Qin Ran and the others didn't plan to tell Qin Sheng. After all, the Qin Family had nothing to do with the Chang 'an System now. Even if something happened, it would be Sixth Uncle's problem.
The Fang Family treated Qin Sheng with great hospitality, which was not something that ordinary friends could enjoy. Of course, Qin Sheng knew that the Fang Family treated him so well, not because he was Fang Lu's classmate, but because he was Qin Changan's son, the son-in-law of the Song Family, and the nephew of the Zhu Family. That was why he was treated so well.
Qin Sheng sat beside Old Master Fang and said with a smile, "When we were on the road, Brother Fang said that the Fang Family's chef was very good at cooking. I was wondering how good it would be. I didn't expect that it was really good. When I come to Guangzhou in the future, I will have to bother you, Old Master and Old Lady."
Old Master Fang smiled and said, "Not at all. Treat this place as your home. When you come to Guangzhou in the future, you can stay here and chat with me."
Fang Lu joked, "Grandpa, Qin Sheng is a busy man. When I was in Beijing, I had to make an appointment with him half a month in advance if I wanted to invite him to dinner."
"It's good for young people to be busy. Young people from families like yours, if you don't work hard in your career, what else can you pursue? " Old Master Fang said calmly. Of course, he didn't say that the only thing left was to spend money and enjoy life. Life would be so empty if you spent your whole life enjoying it.
"Old Master, let me propose a toast to you with tea instead of wine. I wish you and Grandma good health and good luck." Qin Sheng picked up the teacup and offered a toast. Since he was going to visit the old leader in the evening, Qin Sheng didn't drink. Otherwise, people would think that it was disrespectful. However, Fang Tianye had promised that they would drink to their heart's content after the visit.
After lunch, Qin Sheng went out for a walk with Old Master Fang. Although the weather was not very hot, people in Guangzhou were already wearing short-sleeved shirts. Flowers and plants were blooming under the green trees. Such an environment was really good. Qin Sheng thought about building a private garden like this in Beijing in the future. Even if it was on the weekends, it would be good to relax.
Old Master Fang and Qin Sheng walked in front, while Fang Lu and Fang Tianye followed behind them. However, they kept a suitable distance. As for Fang Tianye's parents, they had already returned to the city. They would only come back every few days. Today, they were so busy because of Qin Sheng.
Fang Tianye said half-jokingly, "Alas, Lulu, after getting along with Qin Sheng these days, I feel that we are quite congenial. If it weren't for the fact that he is already engaged and his engagement partner is so outstanding, I would have tricked him into becoming the son-in-law of our Fang Family."
Hearing this, Fang Lu said embarrassedly, "Uncle, why are you becoming more and more improper?"
"I didn't say that I would marry you. Why are you in such a hurry? Do you like Qin Sheng? Lulu, don't you already have someone you like? Why are you falling in love with him? This is not good. "Fang Tianye looked very serious as he said this. Fang Lu was completely speechless.
Fang Lu was completely speechless. In any case, if she continued to speak, it would only make things worse. She knew herself well enough to not cross the line with Qin Sheng. She did not even want to think about it. Otherwise, she would die a horrible death. Although she admired Qin Sheng very much, she knew that she could not control him. Even if Qin Sheng had not been engaged, she would not have chosen him.
