Killing Intent in the Heavy Rain (Part 2)
The Lin Family hadn't seen such a scene for a long time.
The last time was when Lin Ze got married. At that time, the Lin Family was in the limelight. The marriage made the Lin Family famous. Almost everyone in Ningbo knew about it.
The last time was when Old Master Lin passed away. The scene at that time was not much worse than when Old Madam passed away today. It was just that the Lin family was now on a higher level than before, and there were also the factors of the Qin family and Qin Sheng. Therefore, many big shots in the Yangtze River Delta who did not have much contact with the Lin family usually came to mourn. It could be said that they had given the Lin family enough face, so many people could not understand the Lin family.
The Lin Family thought the next time was when Lin Su got married. After all, the Qin Family and Qin Sheng's background were here. At that time, it would definitely be an unprecedented event in Ningbo.
However, they didn't expect that Old Madam Lin would walk in front of them, which made the Lin Family sigh with emotion.
The Old Madam Lin would feel sorry that she couldn't see her favorite granddaughter get married.
The crowd walked out with the coffin in their hands. It was not until the coffin was placed on the hearse that the members of the Lin Family got up and got on the hearse. Qin Sheng followed Lin Changting and Lin Changhe into the hearse and stayed by Old Madam Lin's side.
Raising the coffin …
The motorcade moved slowly. There were endless cars coming to see them off. There were traffic policemen on duty at every intersection. Fortunately, the Lin Family's old house was in the suburbs. If it was in the downtown area, it might cause a great shock. However, the Lin Family had a plan, which was limited to Ningbo, so there wouldn't be any media reports.
Later, except for the Lin Family's motorcade, the other guests took a detour and went to the ancestral grave of the Lin Family in advance. Anyway, it was a distance away, so they wouldn't be seen by too many people.
Qin Sheng, who was sitting in the car, had not felt such a sorrowful atmosphere for a long time. The last time he felt this way was when his grandfather passed away. However, compared with the scene of Old Madam Lin's funeral, Old Master Qin's funeral seemed very shabby. He left this world quietly. Except for Qin Sheng, his biological grandson, no other immediate family members knew about it.
Maybe not many people had the same ending as Old Master Qin.
He was born ordinary, lived a wonderful life, and died a peaceful death. That was the life of Old Master Qin.
"Qin Sheng, let bygones be bygones. I don't expect you to do anything to me or the Lin family. I don't know how you and Susu are doing now. I just hope that you won't let her down. I've let her down in this life. I owe her and her mother, and I won't have a chance to pay them back in this life. I just hope that she can be happy," Lin Changting suddenly said without warning.
Apart from the driver and the butler of the Lin Family, who was sitting in the passenger seat, there was no one else.
There were only Lin Changting, Lin Changhe, and Old Lady Lin's two nephews in the back car. Qin Sheng was the last one.
Old Madam Lin's two nephews were about the same age as Lin Changting and Lin Changhe. One of them had retired as a director and had helped the Lin family a lot in the past. The other one was a professor at Zhejiang University and was still teaching there. After all, there were more scholarly families in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
They didn't know these trifles of the Lin family and didn't have much contact with Qin Sheng. They only knew that Qin Sheng was Lin Su's boyfriend. They also knew that Qin Sheng's identity and background were not simple. It was thanks to this man that the Lin family could survive until now.
Hearing Lin Changting's words, they were just stunned for a while and did not say anything. They continued to be lost in thought. Lin Changhe was a little surprised and looked at Qin Sheng subconsciously.
It did not occur to Qin Sheng that Lin Changting would suddenly say something like this. It seemed that after coming to the Lin Family this time, apart from greeting him, Lin Changting almost did not say anything else. The conversation between them definitely did not exceed 10 sentences.
Qin Sheng slowly raised his head, looked at Lin Changting, and said, "Uncle Lin, I've forgotten what happened in the past. As for Lin Su, you don't have to worry about it. Lin Su has me in this life. As long as it's within my ability, I will give her the greatest happiness."
Qin Sheng still had a lot of resentment towards Lin Changting. This was not only because of Lin Changting's attitude towards him in the past, but also because Lin Changting had hurt Lin Su in this life. He really owed Lin Su too much. Just because he was old and changed his attitude towards Lin Su, did Qin Sheng have to be respectful to him?
If a bad guy chose to be a good guy because he was old and couldn't bear the knife anymore, should we let him go?
If this was really the case, the cost of being a bad guy was really too low. Why should we be a good guy?
If this was really the case, the world would really be in chaos.
Qin Sheng hated the saying of Buddhism the most, "Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately." A good guy needed to go through a lifetime of hardships and setbacks to become a Buddha, while a bad guy could become a Buddha as long as he put down the butcher's knife after doing bad things for his whole life. It was really f * cking nonsense.
Therefore, Qin Sheng had always been close to Taoism.
"Okay." Lin Changting didn't know what to say, so he just nodded awkwardly.
On the way, they didn't talk much. The two nephews of Old Madam Lin didn't communicate much with Qin Sheng. They mostly chatted with Lin Changting and Lin Changhe, talking about the past of Old Madam Lin.
After nearly an hour's journey, the Lin Family's motorcade finally arrived at the destination of this trip, the ancestral grave of the Lin Family.
The ancestral grave of the Lin Family was against the mountain and facing the sea. There was also a small river in front of it, which hid wind and gathered water. It was a good place with good Feng Shui. No wonder the Lin Family could be so prosperous.
Halfway up the mountain, Old Ghost and several of his brothers were staring at this place. Seeing that Old Madam Lin's funeral was about to end, if they still couldn't find a chance, they could only return without accomplishing anything. At that time, it would be hard for them to explain to Elder Long.
One of Old Ghost's men frowned and said, "Uncle Ghost, there is still no chance."
Old Ghost gritted his teeth and said, "Keep waiting."
Another man said in a low voice, "Today is the last day. What if we still can't find a chance?"
Old Ghost said calmly, "Then let's go to Shenzhen again."
Hearing Old Ghost's words, the others didn't say anything more.
At this moment, the ancestral grave of the Lin Family was already full of cars, and there were more than a hundred people outside. They were all here to see Old Madam Lin off. The Lin Family had already arranged a lot of people to guard the surroundings.
After getting out of the car, the people of the Lin Family carried the old lady's coffin to the grave where Old Madam Lin and Old Master Lin were buried together. The grave had been dug up and was waiting to be buried.
The direct and collateral relatives of the Lin Family cried again, and the air was full of sadness.
When the old lady's coffin arrived at the grave, it had already been taken over by the people here. The person in charge of the funeral began to bury the old lady according to the customs. The whole process was carried out in an orderly manner. Qin Sheng was already standing next to Lin Yue, holding her shoulder and comforting this little girl.
In fact, what Qin Sheng was most afraid of was that Old Madam Lin's funeral would be too noisy. It was very likely that Lin Su would get the news from other friends, and then there would be trouble.
However, this was also a matter of time. Qin Sheng had no choice but to hide it as long as he could.
Before long, the old lady was buried. Next, it was time for the guests to pay their respects.
These guests who came to see Old Madam Lin off were all dressed in solemn black clothes, holding chrysanthemums in their hands. These chrysanthemums were also prepared in advance by the Lin Family.
The direct and collateral relatives of the Lin Family all stood on both sides. After these guests finished paying their respects, it was the family members' turn to pay their respects. At that time, there would be other procedures.
The guests lined up to pay their respects. After paying their respects, they directly got into the car and left the ancestral grave of the Lin Family. Their task this time was completely over.
Qin Sheng also saw several old acquaintances, such as Wei Li, the Dugu siblings, the Old Monk's grandson, Qu Huanxi, who had already returned to Hangzhou, Boss Hu's son, Brother Luo, Wu Yongchuan, and so on.
After paying their respects to Old Madam Lin, these old acquaintances who knew Qin Sheng said goodbye to him one after another and then drove away.
The weather was getting worse and worse. The Lin Family was a little worried that it would rain, so they paid their respects faster. Soon, the guests finished paying their respects.
After that, only the direct descendants of the Lin Family were left.
Qin Sheng paid his respects alone. He burned three sticks of incense for Old Madam Lin and poured three glasses of wine for her. After that, he put the bunch of yellow chrysanthemums on the grave and said in a low voice, "Grandma, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Su didn't come to see you off. I hope you don't blame her. Thank you. It's all my fault. Grandma, don't worry. I won't let you down. I won't let her down in this life. I'll make her happy later. You can go in peace. "
After saying that, Qin Sheng kowtowed three times and stood up.
However, Qin Sheng was not in a hurry to leave. He kept watching the other members of the Lin Family paying their respects.
When Lin Yue came back, she had already passed out from crying. No matter how hard Qin Sheng tried, he could not pull her up. He could only directly hold her in his arms and walk to the side. He tried his best to calm her down.
Half an hour later, the funeral finally came to an end. At this time, the cloudy sky finally began to rain. At the beginning, it was only a light drizzle, but then it became a downpour.
All the members of the Lin Family could not help sighing with emotion. This was the result of the old lady's good deeds throughout her life. God waited until the funeral was over before it started to rain. Otherwise, the funeral would have been torturous.
The rest of the members of the Lin Family echoed one after another.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. The rest of the members of the Lin Family directly got in their cars and prepared to go home.
Qin Sheng had planned to visit Lin Su's mother after the funeral, because he would go back to Shenzhen in the afternoon. In the future, he would have little time to come to Ningbo. Moreover, Xue Qingyan had said that Lin Su missed her mother.
Therefore, although it was raining heavily, Qin Sheng still went to visit Lin Su's mother according to his original plan. Moreover, it would not take up too much time.
At this time, Lin Yue said, "Brother-in-law, let me go with you."
Qin Sheng touched Lin Yue's hair and said gently, "No need. You'd better go back and have a good rest. Second Uncle has already arranged for someone to take me there. You don't need to worry about me. Don't get wet in the rain and catch a cold."
Lin Yue had been a little tired these days. After some persuasion, Lin Yue did not insist on going.
At this time, Lin Changhe said, "The rain is a little heavy. Be careful and come back early."
Qin Sheng came to the Lin Family with bodyguards, so Lin Changhe did not need to worry about anything.
Qin Sheng nodded and said, "Okay, I know."
After saying this, Qin Sheng parted ways with the members of the Lin Family.
He got into an off-road vehicle prepared by the Lin Family and followed the man arranged by Lin Changhe to go to Lin Su's mother's grave with two bodyguards. The route happened to be the opposite of the route that the members of the Lin Family took.
This scene was seen by Old Ghost, who was hiding not far away.
When he saw Qin Sheng going in the opposite direction, Old Ghost finally showed a bloodthirsty smile and said, "Here comes our chance."
