CHAPTER 141:
A Chance Encounter
Don't be stingy, give me some. If you have any opinions about this book or are not satisfied with the plot, you can leave a comment in the book review or circle. Thank you.)
Even if some people tried to keep a low profile, they could not hide their existence in the crowd. Just like when Qin Sheng first met Lin Su, he saw Lin Su sitting in the corner and listening to music the moment he entered the bar. During that period of time, they traveled together and visited most of the places in Southwest Sichuan. During that period of time, they experienced many things, such as getting lost in the primeval forest, being chased by the aborigines because of a small conflict, encountering heavy rain and mudslides, etc.
They already had a good impression of each other at that time, but Lin Su and Qin Sheng were both proud people. Qin Sheng did not have time to think about these at that time. Lin Su, on the other hand, restrained her inner feelings because she did not know Qin Sheng well. That was why they made the final parting promise. Maybe they believed in fate more.
Shangshan Ruoshui seemed to be peaceful, but only a few people knew that there might be turbulence behind it. If it really passed to someone else, everyone knew that there would be a cleansing and reorganization.
Today, after Qin Sheng got off work, he did not rush to the gym. Instead, he went to the bookstore. Unexpectedly, other than Xiao Le, the other two were not there. After asking, he found out that they had taken leave for something. Anyway, this small shop did not have much business, they were all repeat customers, Xiao Le could take care of it alone.
"Do whatever you want, I won't bother you," Xiao Le sat at the cashier and said casually after greeting Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng was already very familiar with this place. Every time he came to the bookstore, he felt that time passed very quickly. He poured a glass of water, took a small stool and sat under the bookshelf, casually flipping through those old books. His favorite seller still did not send any books recently, which made Qin Sheng somewhat disappointed.
Recently, Qin Sheng had taken a liking to reading historical books. It was wise to learn from the past and learn from the future by reading history. Other than those official and unofficial histories, Qin Sheng's favorite author of modern history was none other than Old Man Su Shu, Qian Mu. He could be said to be a generation's master of Chinese history. His book "The Gains and Losses of China's Past Dynasties" was highly praised by many people. There was also "The Outline of National History", "The Years of the Scholars of the Pre-Qin Dynasty" and so on. He could be considered to be a truly talented and knowledgeable person.
It was very obvious that this bosom friend, whom he had never met before, liked Qian Mu quite a lot. There were too many annotations on the book, "The Gains and Losses of China's Past Dynasties". For example, there was a sentence that said, "Talking about history can make people not be arbitrary. This is because things are too complicated. The pros and cons will only be seen after a long time. They are all laid out in history."
This time, Qin Sheng found a book called "Sixteen Lectures on National History". However, it was empty. Qin Sheng was fascinated by it. After an unknown period of time, Qin Sheng raised his head and intended to stretch his muscles and bones. After doing this for so long, he felt a little uncomfortable. After getting up, he realized that a man was standing beside him and staring at him with a smile on his face. Qin Sheng didn't know when he had done this.
The man looked ordinary and was not tall. He was about 1.7 meters tall. He wore a pair of round iron-rimmed glasses and was dressed very well. He wore a woolen coat outside his suit and held a scarf in his hand.
"There is something that was formed from chaos. It was born from heaven and earth. It was lonely and sparse. It was independent and did not change. It was circular and did not perish. It could be the mother of the world." The man muttered to himself, "Young man, it seems like you like to read history books."
The man used the word "read" instead of "look". This word was very particular. A scholar was a scholar. Reading a book had a different meaning.
The man looked like he was not even 40 years old. It was a little strange for him to call Qin Sheng a young man. However, Qin Sheng still asked politely, "Have you also read this book called" Sixteen Lectures on National History "?"
"The trajectory of history is always the same. It is very difficult for humans to make breakthroughs in their thinking. Therefore, reading more history books, no matter in life or work, is beneficial," the man said slowly. Then, he looked up and smiled. "The essence of feudalism is to divide land and people. The characteristics of the rural commune is that the land is shared, production is shared, and consumption is shared. "
Coupled with the original text, it was obvious that this man had read this book.
At this moment, Xiao Le ran over with a glass of water and handed it to the man. At the same time, he smiled politely and said, "Mr. Song, please have some water. He is the Qin Sheng that I told you about."
"You are?" Qin Sheng was a little confused.
Mr. Song pushed his glasses and replied, "Xiao Le said that you bought all my books. Naturally, I have to come and see what kind of person the buyer is. Otherwise, my books will be in trouble."
Qin Sheng suddenly understood. He quickly bowed slightly and said, "You are Mr. Huang Pu?"
"I am not talented, I do not deserve to be called Mr. Song. You can just call me Brother Song." Mr. Song was very humble. Mr. Huang Pu was a nickname he gave himself. Every book had the words Mr. Huang Pu on the title page.
Finally meeting his idol, Qin Sheng was a little at a loss. It was like a small fan meeting a big star. He really admired this man, he did not expect to finally meet him today.
"This …" Qin Sheng did not know what to say. He could only move the stool over and said with a silly smile, "Please sit."
"It is rare that someone likes my books. I have met a soulmate. You don't have to be so polite and don't be too nervous. I am just an ordinary person. I am not as mysterious as you think. Just treat me as a friend." Brother Song laughed. Xiao Le, who was beside him, covered his mouth and laughed so hard that he bent over. It was rare to see Qin Sheng like this, he was really too cute.
Qin Sheng laughed and said, "Brother Song, I really like your books. The comments in your books are very special, they opened up a lot of ideas for me."
"I have nothing to do, so I just drew some murals. As long as you think it is useful." Brother Song smiled politely.
The more Brother Song acted like this, the more Qin Sheng felt that Brother Song was someone important. He took the initiative to invite him, "Brother Song, why don't we find a place to sit?"
Brother Song frowned slightly and hesitated. After a while, he said, "Next time. I have something to do today and came here on the way. I did not expect to meet you. I will leave you my phone number. If you are interested, you can come and talk to me."
"Alright, I will listen to you," Qin Sheng said excitedly.
Brother Song told Qin Sheng his phone number and said, "If you like my books, come to my house another day. I have a lot of old books that I want to deal with. You can choose what you like."
"That is great." To Qin Sheng, this news was like a pie falling from the sky. He quickly thanked him.
Brother Song stood up slowly and said a few words with a smile. He then left. Qin Sheng walked Brother Song to the door before entering. After entering, Xiao Le came up to him and said, "Mr. Song is a good person. He is a good friend of our boss."
"Hahahaha, I am so happy today. I did not expect to see Brother Song." Qin Sheng did not listen to Xiao Le at all. He hugged Xiao Le and shouted.
"Ah!" Xiao Le exclaimed and hugged Qin Sheng tightly.
Qin Sheng then realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly put Xiao Le down and said awkwardly, "Sorry, sorry. I was too excited."
"Good boy." Xiao Le blushed and said coquettishly.
After staying in the bookstore for a while, Qin Sheng returned to Shilin Huayuan to change his clothes and go to the gym. But when he came out of the neighborhood, he met an uninvited guest. This uninvited guest was his first girlfriend, Su Qin.
Su Qin was driving a petite BMW MINI. She had been sitting in the car the whole time. It was not until Qin Sheng came out that she got out of the car and walked towards Qin Sheng slowly. Su Qin, who was thin in the first place, was wearing thin clothes. It seemed that she could not withstand the biting cold wind at all.
"Why are you here?" Qin Sheng frowned.
Su Qin shook her head and smiled bitterly. "Can't I look for you? If we can't be lovers, can't we even be friends? "
"That's not what I meant." Qin Sheng quickly shook his head. As he said, Su Qin had her own life. Qin Sheng did not want to break Su Qin's already peaceful life because of his appearance. So after returning to Shanghai, Qin Sheng did not take the initiative to look for Su Qin. He did not know that the owner of YOUNG Bar was Su Qin.
Su Qin took the initiative to invite him. "Let's find a place to sit?"
After Su Qin finished speaking, she turned around and got into the car without waiting for Qin Sheng's reply. Qin Sheng hesitated for a moment and finally nodded. He followed Su Qin into the car and left.
After the BMW MINI left, a red Maserati on the opposite side of the street drove into Jinlin Huayuan. This was Han Bing's car. The driver was naturally Hao Lei. But Han Bing was also sitting in the back and witnessed the scene at the door.
Han Bing was a little jealous. "Hao Lei, do you know that woman?"
Hao Lei did not know whether he should say it or not. With such a hesitation, Han Bing naturally knew the answer. She smiled bitterly and said, "I'm just asking."
"Qin Sheng's first love, Su Qin." After thinking about it, Hao Lei still told Han Bing. He also knew that today was such a coincidence. Qin Sheng and Su Qin did not contact each other. Why would she come to look for Qin Sheng? What was more speechless was that Han Bing saw it. This was f * cking troublesome.
Han Bing said faintly, "She is quite beautiful. Is she also from Xi 'an?"
"Yes, we are all high school classmates." Hao Lei replied.
"I did not expect Qin Sheng to have such a beautiful first love. I really underestimated him. Is she also in Shanghai?" Han Bing continued to ask. She was more concerned about everything about Qin Sheng, not to mention that Qin Sheng's first love had appeared.
Hao Lei nodded and said, "Yes, but they have already separated. Don't think too much about it. Maybe they are just old friends catching up."
"What can I think too much about?" Han Bing curled her lips and snorted. "He is not here anymore. I won't go in. Send me back."
