Mission Accomplished
The Fourth Master was stubborn, which was well-known in Sijiu City. He had been like this since he was young, and no one could change it.
Therefore, Qin Sheng did not think that even if he had a heart-to-heart talk with the First Master of the Chen Family, he would be able to persuade his old father. After all, nobody could change the decision made by the Fourth Master.
However, he did not expect that he would be so lucky this time. The First Master of the Chen Family actually persuaded his father, and the Fourth Master finally chose to see Qin Sheng.
How could Qin Sheng not be surprised?
However, the Fourth Master choosing to see Qin Sheng did not mean that the Qin Family and the Chen Family could reconcile, so Qin Sheng could not be happy too early.
Based on his understanding of the Fourth Master, it would not be so easy.
Although the Fourth Master lived in a villa, it was not so luxurious. On the contrary, it was very simple and clean. There were all kinds of flowers and plants in the yard. Compared with the environment of Sijiu City, Sanya was more suitable to grow these things.
Qin Sheng followed the First Master of the Chen Family and walked in slowly. He said half-jokingly, "Brother Chen, it seems that you are more important in front of the Fourth Master."
The First Master of the Chen Family smiled bitterly and said, "What do I mean? Maybe the old man wanted to see you long ago, but he just wanted to save face. I am just a way for him to step down. "
Qin Sheng felt that this was a little interesting.
He said respectfully, "Brother Chen, you are too polite."
"But I don't know what the old man will decide. You have to work hard. I hope that our two families can reconcile and we can walk together like before," the First Master of the Chen Family said sincerely.
Qin Sheng also said sincerely, "Brother Chen, the relationship between our fathers is different. As long as this matter is over, we can do whatever we want."
"That is true." The First Master of the Chen Family nodded silently.
Soon, they walked into the villa. The place where the Fourth Master lived was very lively. There were all kinds of daily necessities everywhere, and the two cats he used to raise were wandering around.
The First Master of the Chen Family stretched out his hand and said, "My father is waiting for you on the balcony on the second floor. You can go up by yourself. I will not disturb you."
Qin Sheng smiled and nodded. Then he walked up to the second floor seriously.
A black and white cat followed Qin Sheng upstairs. After going upstairs, it meowed a few times, as if it was telling its owner that a stranger had come up. Then, it jumped onto a Buddha head placed in the living room on the second floor, looking very natural.
Last night, the sea breeze was strong, and in the second half of the night, there was an abnormal rainstorm. Today's weather was exceptionally warm and sunny, and the air was not as stuffy as it used to be. Coupled with the gentle breeze, it was indeed suitable to look at the sea and enjoy the scenery.
Compared to the simplicity of the first floor, the second floor was filled with more collectibles, most of which were made up of various stones. This was just a small hobby of the Fourth Master.
Qin Sheng slowly walked to the back of the Fourth Master and greeted him in a low voice, "Fourth Master, you finally see me."
Master Si didn't turn around. He just waved his hand and said, "Sit."
There were two chairs on the balcony and tea on the table. There were also some fruits and snacks, which were the local specialties of Sanya.
After Qin Sheng sat down, he said again, "I thought I wouldn't be able to see Fourth Master in Sanya this time. Thanks to Brother Chen, Fourth Master is willing to see me."
At this time, Qin Sheng took a good look at the Fourth Master and found that this old man, who used to be full of vigor, had become so old now. It had only been three years. How could he look like this?
Qin Sheng was stunned for a moment.
The Fourth Master seemed to notice Qin Sheng's gaze and asked in a low voice, "Do you feel that I've aged a lot?"
Qin Sheng didn't know how to answer this question. It seemed that when people were old, they didn't like others to say that they were old, because along with old age, they were about to die.
"Isn't your First Uncle old, too?" The Fourth Master chuckled.
Qin Sheng didn't seem to think so. Maybe when he saw his First Uncle, he was already very old, and there was not much change in the past two years.
"Have you come back to see your father?" The Fourth Master frowned and asked.
Qin Sheng shook his head and said, "No, he said that he wouldn't let me see him."
Hearing Qin Sheng's answer, the Fourth Master shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Why not? If you really want to see him, why can't you see him? We are all companions who grew up together, he won't be so disrespectful. Besides, with the relationship between your First Uncle and him, he won't stop you from seeing him. "
The Fourth Master's words made Qin Sheng fall into deep thought.
It seemed that in the beginning, when he just came back, his First Uncle had arranged for him to see the Old Master. Later, when he wanted to see him, he said that the procedure had come to an end and he wouldn't let him see him at this time.
When Qin Sheng was confused, the Fourth Master explained slowly, "I guess it's because your father doesn't want you to see him. It's to protect you. Or maybe he doesn't want you to see his old look, which is the most unbearable."
Qin Sheng fell into deep silence and felt a little regretful at the same time. At this time, he understood.
He didn't deny that the Fourth Master's words were to fool him.
It seemed that from the moment he entered the door, the Fourth Master had taken the initiative, but Qin Sheng didn't notice it.
He was still too young in front of the Fourth Master.
After all, not everyone was a match for the Fourth Master. The Fourth Master's opponents were only the times and time.
Or maybe, as a junior, he didn't have the confidence to take the initiative.
"I know him better than anyone else. Otherwise, how could we have been together for so many years?" The Fourth Master muttered to himself, "We are all old. In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed. Flowers will bloom again, but people will never be young again."
Yes, people would have the same feeling when they were old.
At this time, Qin Sheng said, "Fourth Master, you and my father have known each other for most of our lives. It's really unnecessary to make things like this."
"Okay, I know what you want to say. Last night, Big Brother told me what you want to say. You don't have to say these words." The Fourth Master directly waved his hand to stop him.
Qin Sheng frowned. The Fourth Master was really stubborn.
He braced himself and said, "Fourth Master, what do you mean?"
"You guys, do you really think I'm stubborn? Of course, some things are because of my pressure, but some things have long been beyond my ability. Even if I continue to pressure now, your father may not be able to come out easily. Both your father and I realized what we did wrong in the end, "the Fourth Master explained slowly.
Qin Sheng was shocked, but he obviously didn't understand.
Master Si said with a smile, "I exerted pressure on your father because I wanted to protect more people, including our Chen family. Now, I think we should do what we should do. I won't fight for it." Master Si said with a smile.
"So you agree?" The more Qin Sheng listened, the more confused he became.
The Fourth Master laughed at himself and said, "What can I do if I don't agree? I can't completely fall out with your family, can I? It's not that I can't fight against you, but I'm a little tired of these things. I've lived like a dog for most of my life. I'm old and serious about some things, but I didn't expect to cause trouble for many people and the country. Even if I die, I can't face my parents who have sacrificed so much for the country. "
Listening to the Fourth Master's words, Qin Sheng felt that the Fourth Master made such a decision in order to protect the Chen Family. He was afraid that the Qin Family would fall out with the Chen Family.
But he felt that it was not the case, and there seemed to be other reasons.
"Qin Sheng, after going back to Beijing, go see your father and tell your First Uncle not to make trouble anymore. If the Qin Family wants to be safe, don't make trouble anymore." The Fourth Master chuckled.
Qin Sheng wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. "Fourth Master …"
The Fourth Master looked at the boundless sea and said, "I didn't understand a lot of things until last night, but I don't know if your father has thought it through."
Qin Sheng felt that it was hard for him to understand what the Fourth Master said today, and he didn't know whether the Fourth Master had agreed or not.
It seemed that he had agreed, but it also seemed that he had not.
"It seems that we don't have a chance to drink anymore." The Fourth Master let out a long sigh, and then directly waved his hand, indicating that Qin Sheng could leave.
Qin Sheng stood up and left with a confused look.
When he was about to go downstairs, he saw the back of the Fourth Master was very lonely, as if he had aged a lot.
Qin Sheng let out a long sigh. He thought about what the Fourth Master had said just now, and he should have agreed.
Otherwise, why did he want to see him?
But he didn't quite understand these words.
Qin Sheng shook his head. It seemed that he had to report to his First Uncle and Uncle Gongsun before he could completely understand.
But no matter what, he had met the Fourth Master today, and the task of this trip was considered completed.
