A Small Circle
This was the place with the best scenery of Qujiang South Lake, so there were many bars and restaurants. For people in summer, after a hot day, life began in the evening, especially for young people. Therefore, most of the people here were young men and women in twos and threes, including many beautiful and handsome men. After all, such an environment was most suitable for flirting with girls.
Su Yongxian's age was rare, not to mention drinking wine and smoking cigars, which was rare here, so he attracted a lot of attention.
"Qin Sheng, I remember the last time I saw you was the Spring Festival three years ago. At that time, you had dinner at home. After that, I never heard from you again," Su Yongxian said slowly. Unconsciously, he had not seen Qin Sheng for three and a half years. At that time, when he heard from his daughter that she and Qin Sheng had broken up, he was very shocked. Because his daughter and Qin Sheng had been in love for so many years, they rarely quarreled. His daughter was more obedient and sensible, and Qin Sheng was more protective of her. Therefore, Su Yongxian was very shocked when he heard that his daughter had broken up with him.
Qin Sheng also said with some emotion, "Yes, uncle, we haven't seen each other for three years and eight months. Originally, when I came back last year, I should have visited you and aunt, but I always felt ashamed."
Su Yongxian chuckled and said, "This is serious. Your aunt and I have known you for ten years and watched you and Su Qin grow up. Even if you broke up later, you can't not contact us."
"Uncle, you are right. I thought too much." Qin Sheng nodded silently. He felt that Su Yongxian did not look for him just to talk about the old days.
Su Yongxian said thoughtfully, "Qin Sheng, I want to ask you something."
"Uncle, go ahead." Qin Sheng could not help but be nervous.
Su Yongxian's eyes were deep as he said, "You disappeared for so long. Is it because you broke up with Su Qin? If so, I apologize to you on behalf of Su Qin."
"Uncle, this time you thought too much. Although it was Su Qin who broke up with me, my departure has nothing to do with it. This is my grandfather's arrangement for me. I have to do something," Qin Sheng explained truthfully.
Su Yongxian finally felt at ease and replied, "That's good. However, speaking of the Old Master's death, you shouldn't have done that. Why didn't you inform us at that time? We could have sent the Old Master on his last journey."
Su Yongxian had only met Old Master Qin once. At that time, he was shocked and felt that the old master was not an ordinary person. In the past, he had only heard Qin Sheng mention it occasionally. Later, when it rained, Qin Sheng stayed at the Lins' house. He was more or less worried about the Old Master. Su Yongxian sent him back to the foot of Zhongnan Mountains. That was how they met. The old man also gave him a bracelet, saying that he was kind and wise, and that his life would be smooth sailing.
Qin Sheng explained very seriously, "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to inform everyone, but this is grandpa's arrangement. He wants to leave quietly. He doesn't like those complicated ceremonies, and he doesn't like to be disturbed by others. At that time, even Uncle Lin and Auntie Wang didn't know. It was grandpa's few hermit friends in Zhongnan Mountains and the old Taoist priest of Louguantai who helped to deal with the funeral affairs." The Old Master was antisocial and had been alone all his life. Naturally, he didn't care about those common customs.
What's the point? Su Yongxian said thoughtfully, "Then I understand. Old Master is not an ordinary person. Then how did you spend these three years? Where are you living now? If you don't mind, you can tell me. I don't mean anything."
Su Yongxian raised his glass and clinked with Qin Sheng. Then he took a sip and smoked the cigar.
"Uncle, it's nothing to hide. I went out to travel according to grandpa's arrangement. I traveled all over the country in more than two years. I only came back last October. Then I went to Shanghai and now I'm working in Hangzhou," Qin Sheng said very simply.
Su Yongxian said casually, "How's the work? Is it going well? Don't you plan to go back to Xi 'an?"
"It's okay. The work is arranged by grandpa's old friend. I won't go back to Xi 'an these few years. I don't know about the future." Qin Sheng shook his head and said.
Actually, Su Yongxian wanted to say that if Qin Sheng went back to Xi 'an, he could directly enter the Su family's company. As long as Qin Sheng could come back, then his daughter would definitely come back. In this way, they wouldn't have to miss their daughter. Usually, they could only video call. Occasionally, they could go to Shanghai or see their daughter when she came back.
Su Yongxian was silent for a moment and asked tentatively, "The beautiful girl beside you today, is she your girlfriend?"
Qin Sheng was not surprised that Su Yongxian would ask. Maybe he just guessed and was not sure. After hesitating for a moment, Qin Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, her name is Lin Su. She's my girlfriend."
"She's very beautiful and has a special temperament. She's a good match for you." Su Yongxian knew the answer, but he was still a little disappointed. He continued, "It seems that you and Su Qin can't go back to the past. So Qin Sheng, can you do me a favor?"
Qin Sheng knew that this was the purpose of Su Yongxian's meeting tonight. He replied, "Uncle, please."
"You already have a new girlfriend and a new life. Can you help me to let Su Qin give up and let her start a new life? I beg you. We only have one daughter, and we don't want to see her torture herself like this." Su Yongxian finally told him the purpose of this trip. Su Yongxian's eyes lit up.
Qin Sheng was stunned and said in surprise, "Uncle, how can I help? I can help with other things, but I really can't do anything about this."
"Qin Sheng, you know that Su Qin loves you deeply. You don't want her to be like this, right? You're the only one who can help her now." Su Yongxian sighed bitterly.
An elder who used to be good to him said such words for his daughter, which made Qin Sheng feel bitter and guilty. He was the initiator of all this. If she hadn't met him, if they hadn't broken up, Su Qin wouldn't have been like this.
"Uncle, let me think about it. I can't give you an answer in a short time." Qin Sheng did not agree directly. Instead, he stepped back. He really had no way to refuse Su Yongxian. He did not expect that Su Qin's situation was more serious than he thought.
Su Yongxian said helplessly, "Okay, I'll wait for your answer. I hope you won't let me down. I really hope you can still be like before. I don't know how you got to where you are today. We really don't understand the feelings of you young people."
Qin Sheng did not say anything more. After smoking a cigar and drinking more than half of a bottle of wine, Qin Sheng and Su Yongxian left. Su Yongxian's driver sent Qin Sheng to the gate of Jindi Furong Shijia.
When Qin Sheng came back, Auntie Wang and Xin Xin had already gone to bed because they had to catch a flight tomorrow morning. When he returned to the room, Lin Su was still playing with her mobile phone and waiting for him.
Seeing Qin Sheng coming in, Lin Su stood up and said, "You're back." She also smelled the alcohol on Qin Sheng. She frowned and said, "You drank?"
Qin Sheng chuckled and said, "A little, not much."
"Take a shower and go to sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow," Lin Su said softly and continued to lie down.
Qin Sheng was very confused and said, "Don't you have anything to ask or say?"
"What do I want to ask? About Su Qin? About whom you went out to meet? Everyone has a past. I'm grateful to her for accompanying you through the road, which allowed me to meet the best you. I don't want to know about your past. Otherwise, I would only envy her for meeting you earlier than me. But she is very beautiful, which shows that our Qin Sheng is very charming, has good taste and taste. Anyway, no matter how much I say, it is not as important as you are by my side now. The other things are meaningless and will only add to my troubles. "Although Lin Su did not want to say anything, she still said such a long sentence. These words were also from her heart. She did not want Qin Sheng to think too much.
After listening, Qin Sheng sighed in his heart and felt that he really underestimated Lin Su. Lin Su's realm really made him feel ashamed. Such a woman was really the soul partner of any man.
So Qin Sheng walked over and sat by the bed, looking at Lin Su very affectionately. Lin Su looked puzzled and said, "What are you doing?"
Qin Sheng said softly, "Nothing. I just want to see my wife and see whether I am dreaming or not. If it is a dream, I hope I will never wake up. If it is not a dream, I hope I can meet you in my next life."
Lin Su laughed and pushed Qin Sheng away. "This again? I don't want to eat it."
"Really?" Qin Sheng said playfully.
After saying that, before Lin Su could react, he pushed Lin Su onto the bed and directly kissed her domineeringly. Lin Su wanted to struggle, but how could she be Qin Sheng's opponent? In the end, she could only give up.
Qin Sheng did not push his luck. After enjoying it, he ran away to take a shower. Lin Su was so angry that she said angrily, "Rogue."
The next morning, Wang Li prepared to send Qin Sheng, Lin Su and Xin Xin to the airport. What Qin Sheng did not expect was that Meng Zhe, Wu Hao and Zhao Xuan also came to send Qin Sheng to the airport. They did not call Qin Sheng until they arrived at the entrance of Jindi Furong Shijia District. This made Qin Sheng very surprised. In the end, Qin Sheng, Lin Su and Xin Xin took their car to the airport.
On the way, they chatted casually. At the airport, they exchanged greetings and said goodbye politely. Meng Zhe said that when there was a chance, they would rush to Hangzhou to harass Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng said with a smile, "Hangzhou welcomes you."
At 11 o 'clock in the afternoon, Qin Sheng and his group arrived in Hangzhou. Hao Lei drove to the airport to pick them up. When he saw Xin Xin, he was very happy. On the way, he kept chatting with Xin Xin, ignoring Qin Sheng and Lin Su.
After returning to Hangzhou, Qin Sheng left Xin Xin to Lin Su. Lin Su specially applied for a few days' leave from the company, preparing to take Xin Xin to visit Hangzhou. After all, this city was similar to Xi 'an. There were too many places to visit.
Qin Sheng began a new busy life. The first thing he did was to gather everyone together. This group of people was his small circle.
Chang Baji, Hao Lei, Yu Fengzhi, Ms. An, Lyu Yuan, as well as Chang Baji's two martial nephews, Gu Qingyang and Gu Xiaobo. Because of this relationship, Qin Sheng naturally treated them as his trusted subordinates. In this way, they would work for him unswervingly.
Lin Su helped Qin Sheng to choose the place to eat. It was a quiet restaurant near Longjing. The environment and atmosphere were good.
