I've been waiting for you …
Many people said that you would never know which would come first, an accident or tomorrow.
Accidents were indeed scary, but what was scarier than accidents were people's hearts and conspiracies. You had tried your best and fought back, but the result was still not what you wanted.
However, Qin Sheng just wanted to fight with his own strength. Just like what he had said, no one was a deity or a Buddha, and no one's life was invincible. Even if he lost, he had to lose with integrity and dignity.
Zhao Quan quickly contacted the leaders of Tianshui City and the Tianshui police. They were shocked by what happened that night, so they immediately set up a special task force to investigate the case. Soon, the Public Security Bureau sent a few police officers to Xiyuan Hotel to record the statements of Qin Sheng and Han Bing. They also expanded the search area according to what Qin Sheng and Han Bing said.
The people in Han Village also knew that something had happened on the road, especially that Han Bing's cousins were missing …
It was already three o 'clock in the morning when everything was done. After sending the relatives of the Han Family, Han Bing was finally exhausted. Qin Sheng knew that Han Bing was relying on him at this moment, so he said softly, "Sleep for a while, I'll sit in the living room. Call me if you need anything."
Han Bing did not know why, but she slowly walked over and hugged him tightly under Qin Sheng's puzzled gaze. Qin Sheng could almost feel the softness of Han Bing's chest and the fragrance on her body. But at this time, he had no time to think about these things.
"Don't leave me at any time, okay?" Han Bing was like a little girl who had been awakened from a nightmare, trembling as she said. All the things that she had experienced during this period of time had put too much pressure on her and she could collapse at any time.
Qin Sheng hugged her waist and stroked her back gently, saying, "Don't worry, I won't."
When Han Bing fell asleep, Qin Sheng came out of the bedroom and sat in the living room outside, smoking. Chen Bei Ming and Old Wu were missing. Even if he went back from Tianshui, there were still many unknown dangers in Shanghai. But he had no one by his side, he needed at least two people that he absolutely trusted.
Zhongnan Mountains, Qin Sheng subconsciously thought of that place …
Early in the morning, after Zhao Quan had arranged everything, he left Tianshui and returned to Lanzhou. After all, he was a busy man and would not stay in Tianshui with Qin Sheng. Qin Sheng and Han Bing cooperated with the police and returned to the scene of the incident last night. The two cars that they were in had already been driven away. However, there was still no news of Chen Beiming, Old Wu and the rest. The police brought them to the place where the fight took place. Everything matched what Qin Sheng and Han Bing had said. When they saw a few pools of blood that had already coagulated, Qin Sheng and Han Bing had already thought of the worst.
The relatives of the Han Family had some influence in Tianshui. He told them to think of a solution and to contact Han Bing immediately if there was any news. In the afternoon, Qin Sheng and Han Bing finished all the work on the police side. After confirming that they could leave Tianshui, they directly took the Gulfstream G450 back to Shanghai.
In Shanghai, Zheng Ping and Zhao Dongsheng had been constantly calling Han Bing to come back and take charge of the situation. Otherwise, such a big company would not be able to survive.
Chen Beiming and Old Wu were not around, so Qin Sheng had to accompany Han Bing. However, before he left Tianshui, he had already called his best friend, Hao Lei. Hao Lei had joined the army after graduating from high school and had just been demobilized this year. According to Lao Meng, Hao Lei was a scout and had received two second-class merits. He had been selected to join the Special Forces, but he took the initiative to ask to be demobilized.
After being demobilized, he had been staying at home and did not go out to look for a job. Qin Sheng casually asked, "Since you don't want to stay in Xi 'an, would you like to come to Shanghai?"
Unexpectedly, Hao Lei agreed immediately. He said that he had nothing to do anyway, so he would go to Shanghai to have a look. If there was a chance, he could stay and if he was not used to it, he could come back.
Needless to say, Qin Sheng and Hao Lei's relationship was very good. With Hao Lei by his side, Qin Sheng could rest assured. However, Qin Sheng quickly gave Hao Lei a task, which was to go to Zhongnan Mountains to ask for help from an old man.
Qin Sheng had told Hao Lei everything that needed to be said. As for the location of the old man in Zhongnan Mountains, Qin Sheng also gave him a rough location. Unless the old man had already left Zhongnan Mountains.
After Hao Lei hung up the phone, he drove straight to Zhongnan Mountains …
When the Gulfstream G450 arrived in Shanghai, it was exactly six o 'clock at night. It was already dark in Shanghai. Qin Sheng did not trust anyone from the Han family, so he asked Jiang Xianbang for help and asked him to send them directly to Huarun Nine Mile Bund instead of Tomson Golf Villa.
From the moment the plane landed at Pudong Airport, Qin Sheng knew that he had to be careful with every step he took. He could not make any mistakes, or he would fall into the abyss.
In order to protect Han Bing, Old Wu and Chen Beiming might have sacrificed their lives. Therefore, Qin Sheng had to ensure Han Bing's safety no matter what.
Shanghai and Han Village were worlds apart. After staying in Han Village for a few days, Qin Sheng was a little dazed when he suddenly returned to this bustling metropolis. Han Bing, who was sitting beside him, had already fallen asleep while leaning on Qin Sheng's shoulder.
Qin Sheng was thinking about how to face everything that was about to happen, and whether the old man in Zhongnan Mountains would agree to help. In fact, Qin Sheng was not sure, but no matter what, he had to bite the bullet and continue moving forward.
When they returned to Huarun Nine Mile Bund, Qin Sheng sent Han Bing home and said softly, "Take a shower and have a good sleep."
"Are you leaving?" Han Bing asked nervously.
Qin Sheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "No, even if you chase me away now, I won't leave. But we're a man and a woman, aren't you afraid that I'll do something to you?"
"You're not that kind of person." Han Bing stared at Qin Sheng with a pitiful look.
Qin Sheng was really not in the mood to bicker with Han Bing. Moreover, the atmosphere was really not suitable. He just patted her shoulder and said, "Go in and sleep."
Han Bing nodded and went back to the bedroom. She took a shower and went straight to sleep. She was really a little tired and did not want to think about anything else.
After Han Bing fell asleep, Qin Sheng waited for Jiang Xianbang in the living room.
Half an hour later, Qin Sheng went downstairs to pick up Jiang Xianbang. The two of them did not enter Han Bing's house, but smoked and chatted at the stairs. Jiang Xianbang's bodyguards were guarding Han Bing's house.
"Sigh, you're really lucky, I was really afraid that you wouldn't come back," Jiang Xianbang said helplessly as he smoked the Shaanxi Good Cat that Qin Sheng handed to him.
"Those who deserve to die can't live, those who deserve to live can't die either." Qin Sheng's mood was a little gloomy.
Han Guoping was dead, and now even the Han family's biggest protection, Chen Bei Ming and Old Wu, were missing. The speed at which the Han family was being destroyed was really shocking. Only Han Bing was left, could she hold on?
"I told you not to get involved in this mess, but you just didn't listen," Jiang Xianbang said resentfully.
Qin Sheng sighed and said, "Even if I want to leave now, I can't."
"Tell me, what do you plan to do?" Jiang Xianbang really did not know what Qin Sheng could do. Facing both internal and external troubles, it was hard for him to hold the fort alone.
"We'll see. I've asked two friends from Xi 'an to help. I can't handle these things alone. When Han Bing wakes up, I'll have a good talk with her and see what she's thinking. I'll make a decision after that," Qin Sheng said thoughtfully.
Jiang Xianbang pointed at Qin Sheng and said, "You, you, I really don't know what to do with you. I've told Zhao Quan in Tianshui, you don't have to worry about the rest. If you really need help in Shanghai, don't be shy. Anyway, I've offended a lot of people, so it doesn't matter if I offend a few more. They can't do anything to me, so you don't have to die on the streets."
"Hahaha, thank you, Uncle Jiang. I was waiting for you to say that," Qin Sheng said shamelessly.
Jiang Xianbang stood up and said, "Alright, I'm going back. You handle the other things yourself."
After Jiang Xianbang left, Qin Sheng returned to the living room again. He was still waiting for Hao Lei's news. Regardless of whether Hao Lei could succeed or not, Hao Lei had to rush to Shanghai at noon tomorrow. Every day that he delayed meant one more day of danger.
After Hao Lei hung up the phone with Qin Sheng, he drove straight to Zhongnan Mountains. The place was really hard to find. In the end, he could only park his car by the roadside and walk to the thatched cottage where the old man lived.
Hao Lei followed the route that Qin Sheng said and searched for nearly two hours. His shoes were almost worn out, and he finally found the place. It was located halfway up the mountain, and there was only a stone path leading to it. There were three primitive thatched cottages and a fenced yard. There were a few trees and a few vegetable fields in the yard.
Hao Lei had only heard that there were many reclusive masters living in Zhongnan Mountains, but today was the first time he saw them. This feeling made him feel like he had returned to the farming culture of the past.
"Is anyone there?" Hao Lei shouted loudly. From the outside, he could see that there was a withered yellow light coming from the window of the thatched cottage in the middle. It was not the light from a light bulb, but from a bonfire or kerosene lamp.
Hao Lei shouted a few times, but there was still no response.
In this deep mountain forest, coupled with the sounds of all kinds of wild beasts, it really made people feel very creepy. If it were not for Hao Lei's strong mental strength, ordinary people would have been scared away long ago.
He slowly approached the thatched cottage, his whole body tensed up, ready to deal with any sudden crisis. Finally, he pushed open the old wooden door. The door bolt looked like an antique. After an ear-piercing squeak, the door was finally pushed open.
At this time, suddenly, someone said, "Isn't it a pleasure to have a friend from afar?"
The voice was low and hoarse, like the last words of an old man who was about to be buried, shouting with his last strength. It scared Hao Lei so much that his legs became weak.
He walked in shakily, and only then did he get a clear look at the situation inside. An old man dressed in a gray robe was sitting cross-legged on a brick bed, meditating. A pot of fragrant tea was boiling on the fire beside him. There were only a few wooden furnishings in the room, and Hao Lei felt like he had traveled to another world.
"Old man, do you know Qin Sheng? He was the one who asked me to find you," Hao Lei said carefully.
The old man had long hair like a Taoist priest, and his hair was already pure white. In addition, his face was full of wrinkles, and no one would doubt that he was a real reclusive master.
Hao Lei felt that this old man had a strong aura, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
"Fate comes and goes, there is no cause and no effect. I have been waiting for you," the old man said again, but still did not open his eyes.
