A Positive Response
The sun was shining brightly, and the breeze was blowing gently. Occasionally, a few white clouds floated by, but they disappeared in a flash.
It was a nice day.
Qin Sheng rolled down the window and let the breeze blow on him. The sad atmosphere seemed to be blown away.
Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu were in the same car. Song Ruyu held Qin Sheng's hand tightly and stared at him for a few seconds, as if she was trying to guess what he was thinking.
Qin Sheng said casually, "Ruyu, have you ever thought about what happens to people after they die? Do they really enter another world and look at this world from another angle? Or is it that death is death and there's really nothing left?" Ruyu asked casually. Ruyu nodded.
This question seemed very profound, but it also seemed to be very common, as if everyone had thought about this before.
Qin Sheng had experienced life and death several times and thought about it many times.
Song Ruyu thought for a moment and replied, "I always think that people die and nothing else."
She was a firm atheist.
"Sometimes, I also feel that way. But since I was young, Grandpa told me that it was not like that. He seemed to be able to see through a person's past, present, and future life. So Grandpa also seemed to be very indifferent to everything. He was so desireless," Qin Sheng said faintly. At the same time, he thought of those childish topics that he had asked Grandpa about when he was young. If he asked about those topics again today, they would be so profound and unpredictable.
Song Ruyu didn't say anything. She had her own logic and understanding, and she respected other people's opinions.
Qin Sheng continued, "Another example is that when I was young, I had already forgotten what my mother looked like, but I always dreamed of her. I didn't know who she was until I saw her photo. Then I knew that the woman who always appeared in my dreams was my mother."
Song Ruyu frowned slightly and didn't say anything. She was also thinking about why.
"It is said that the end of science is theology. Others regard this as feudal superstition, but I have been by my grandfather's side since I was a child, so some things are hard for me to understand. Isn't it said that this world is more filled with dark matter? Those so-called spirits and souls, do they also belong to dark matter? Or should I say that after people die, they actually live in the same world as us, but we can't see them?" Qin Sheng said somewhat mysteriously.
Song Ruyu didn't know why Qin Sheng suddenly said this, or maybe he thought of many things because of the death of the Fourth Master.
"Why did you say that?" Song Ruyu asked.
Qin Sheng explained, "I just thought that when Grandpa passed away, he was not afraid of death at all. Instead, he seemed to be embracing death, so I overthought."
Song Ruyu said softly, "Don't say such things to others in the future. Otherwise, people will think you're crazy."
"Well, I've always been a psycho," Qin Sheng muttered in a low voice.
At this time, the motorcade had arrived at their destination, a resort surrounded by mountains and the sea in Sanya. This resort belonged to a company under the Chen family. It was not open to the public and only entertained the company's internal staff. Otherwise, why would they hold a farewell ceremony in a hotel? There were many big shots coming today, so the security of the resort was very high. There were security personnel dressed in black and wearing earphones everywhere. There were also many security guards in ordinary security uniforms. The Chen family had hired the largest security company in Hainan to be in charge of the security for the farewell ceremony.
Not everyone could attend the farewell ceremony of the Fourth Master. The precondition was that they had to be friends of the Fourth Master or friends of the Chen family. The team in charge of the funeral of the Chen family would also be informed in advance. Otherwise, they would not be allowed in. After all, there would be many big shots coming, and the Chen family did not want any accidents.
When the Qin family's motorcade arrived at the resort, the parking lot was full of all kinds of cars. Almost all of them were black or white, which looked very grand.
From the entrance of the resort to the farewell ceremony hall, there were all kinds of flowers on both sides of the road. There were not only white or yellow chrysanthemums. Maybe the Chen family didn't want the atmosphere to be too heavy.
The Qin family had already informed the Chen family, so they also knew that the Qin family was coming. They entered the resort smoothly.
Some people had arrived earlier than the Qin family, so they saw many old friends or acquaintances in the parking lot. However, they didn't have time to say hello before they got in the cars and left in a hurry.
Everyone went to the farewell ceremony site. No one spoke along the way. Qin Sheng and the others followed the elders unhurriedly.
Outside the site of the farewell ceremony, they met more acquaintances and friends. Everyone was waiting to enter the site. Compared with the relatives and friends who didn't have time to say hello in the parking lot, how could they be so familiar with each other now that they were all together?
Qin Sheng also saw several old acquaintances, such as the previous shareholders of the Chang 'an family. They had more contacts with the Fourth Master and the Qin family in the past. How could they not come this time?
Everyone was a little surprised that the whole Qin family came here. Of course, some big shots also received the news in advance.
Many people had already come over to say hello to Qin Changxing and Zhao Anzhi. Although Qin Changxing had been a monk for many years, he knew many old friends. He had also contacted a lot in the past three years, so they got along well with each other.
Maybe because of the sensitive identity of the Qin family, or because today's occasion was different, they didn't come over to say hello. They just nodded at them from a distance.
Qin Sheng, Qin Ran, Song Ruyu, and Qin Jing just followed the elders to greet the other elders. As for the friends they knew, they could only make eye contact. After all, with so many elders present today, there was no chance for the juniors to speak.
At this time, someone who was not very harmonious suddenly came over and directly scolded, "How dare the Qin family come to see the Fourth Master? If it weren't for the Qin family, would the Fourth Master suddenly die?"
This voice was very harsh. Moreover, on such a sensitive occasion, it was easy for the Qin family to become the target of public criticism.
Although many people knew about the things between the Qin family and the Chen family, how many people knew the inside story? Moreover, who knew what the Fourth Master's death had to do with the Qin family?
This sentence directly led all the topics to the Qin family. In an instant, the Qin family became the focus of all the people present.
Some people didn't understand it but thought it was awesome. Some people were waiting to see the fun, and some people frowned. What was supposed to come finally came.
The one who spoke was none other than Ze Yuan, who had been close to the Fourth Master these years and had rushed to Sanya as soon as the Fourth Master died. He was also the one who knew the resentment between the Qin family and the Chen family the most. Of course, he had the biggest opinion of the Qin family.
He had long known that the Qin family would come today, and he was full of anger. Now he was just waiting for the Qin family to show up.
"Ze Yuan, what do you mean by that? What's the occasion today? Mind your words and actions. "As the representative of the Qin family, Qin Changxing naturally stood out and said.
Ze Yuan, who was wearing a black suit with a white chrysanthemum pinned on his chest, said calmly, "Brother Changxing, don't you know what I mean? How did the Qin family end up like this? Fourth Uncle and the Chen family did a lot of things for you. What did you do in the end? Biting the hand that feeds you, is that what a human would do? "
Hearing this, Qin Sheng couldn't hold back his anger. He knew that someone might make trouble today, but he didn't expect that it would be Ze Yuan.
Song Ruyu held Qin Sheng's arm tightly. She didn't want Qin Sheng to stand out today. After all, everyone wanted Qin Sheng to make trouble, which would make the situation worse.
"Ze Yuan, I know that you were close to the Fourth Master, and his death made you sad. I'll just take these words as nonsense. Don't continue to make a fool of yourself here." Qin Changxing's words were very polite.
Ze Yuan didn't stop there. He laughed and said, "Brother Changxing, fine. I won't talk about the past. Let's talk about how Fourth Uncle passed away. Why did Fourth Uncle suddenly get seriously ill and go to the hospital after Qin Sheng came to Sanya to see him and finally died? Why don't you tell us what happened? Did you force Fourth Uncle to die? "
As expected, Ze Yuan pointed the spearhead at Qin Sheng. When he said these words, he stared at Qin Sheng fiercely.
As expected, after this sentence, many people present who didn't know what had happened began to talk about it.
Before Qin Changxing could respond, Ze Yuan confronted Qin Sheng and asked, "Qin Sheng, if you are a man, you should take the initiative to stand out and tell us what happened. Am I telling the truth?"
This sentence put Qin Sheng in a difficult position. He tried hard to control his emotions and didn't want to have a direct conflict with Ze Yuan. In this way, he would fall into their trap.
However, if he didn't respond, others would acquiesce to this fact. They would think that Qin Sheng had indeed done something guilty, so he didn't dare to respond directly.
Qin Changxing and Zhao Anzhi were both afraid that Qin Sheng couldn't control his temper and would quarrel with Ze Yuan here. They both looked at Qin Sheng and signaled him to calm down.
What should Qin Sheng do?
His brain was spinning rapidly. He began to think of countermeasures. How could he not be at a disadvantage?
In the end, Qin Sheng thought of a desperate way. He was also betting on the probability, but he didn't know whether he could make the right bet.
If he made the right bet, although this matter would definitely affect him, he could minimize the impact.
But if he lost the bet.
It was possible that he would lose all standing and reputation.
So Qin Sheng chose to respond directly.
