Obedience is Better Than Politeness
(The updates are not very stable recently, because I am renovating my new house. Since I'm a single dog that's about to enter my thirties, I have to do everything by myself. No one can help me, and I don't like trouble anyway, so I've been as busy as a dog recently. Every day, I run around to keep an eye on things, and I can only write at night. I hope everyone can understand how difficult it is for a single dog like me. As for the plot, the last big climax of the first million words is coming, please look forward to it.)
In the middle of October, a cold air from the north hit Hangzhou. Compared with this time in previous years, Hangzhou got cold earlier this year, and there was continuous autumn rain.
After the autumn rain and the cold, Hangzhou, which had just passed the National Day Golden Week, was a bit bleak, as if it was lonely after a party.
When Qin Sheng got up, Lin Su was already up. Lin Yue was still sleeping soundly in the master bedroom. Born in a family like the Lin family, Lin Yue rarely had troubles, at least she did not have to worry about life.
Lin Su had cooked porridge and two steamed buns. There was a plate of pickled vegetables and Qin Sheng's favorite oil chili on the table. Seeing Qin Sheng coming out of the study, Lin Su, who was wearing pajamas and had messy hair, said softly, "Eat something before you go."
Qin Sheng, who was already dressed neatly, walked over and gently combed Lin Su's hair. Then he sat down and ate the steamed buns and drank the porridge without saying a word. He always did not like to talk when he was eating. Qin Sheng did not speak, neither did Lin Su. She just quietly watched Qin Sheng eat.
A few minutes later, Qin Sheng finished a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns. He wiped his mouth with a tissue and stood up to go out. Lin Su handed the umbrella to Qin Sheng and said, "It's raining outside, take the umbrella."
Qin Sheng nodded and was about to go out. He seemed to think of something and turned back to kiss Lin Su's forehead gently. Lin Su smiled and said, "I will wait for you to come back."
The autumn rain was pattering outside. There was no passerby in the community. Qin Sheng's figure looked a little lonely. Most people were still in the dream at this time, but Qin Sheng had to face the enemy that he did not want to face.
When Qin Sheng arrived at the gate of the community, Chang Baji was already waiting for him there.
He got in the car, closed the umbrella and closed the door.
Qin Sheng picked up his phone and began to look at the unread messages in WeChat. There were messages from everyone, but Qin Sheng did not reply to any of them. Then, he opened the app and began to read the news. It seemed to be similar to his daily routine at work. He did not feel anything strange.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Lingyin Temple. Chang Baji found a place to park the car. The two of them walked toward the main entrance of the Lingyin Temple with black umbrellas in their hands. Lin Changhe had sent a text message to Chang Baji on the way, saying that he would wait for them at the main entrance.
The Lingyin Temple opened its gate at seven o 'clock. In the past, there would have been many tourists burning incense and worshipping Buddha. However, the weather was not good today, so there were not many tourists. There were only a few devout monks.
At the entrance of the Lingyin Temple, Lin Changhe, who was dressed in a black coat, had been waiting for a long time, followed by two bodyguards. The three of them happened to be holding black umbrellas, which made them look like gangsters meeting or doing business.
After seeing Lin Changhe, Qin Sheng asked in a low voice, "Second Uncle, has he arrived already?"
Today, Qin Sheng looked very serious, and his eyes were full of indifference. Lin Changhe said in a low voice, "He's already waiting for you inside."
"Then let's go," Qin Sheng said.
Lin Changhe and Qin Sheng walked in the front, while Chang Baji and the two bodyguards followed them separately. At the gate of the Lingyin Temple, Qin Sheng looked up at the three big characters of the Lingyin Temple on the golden board and smiled unnaturally. It seemed that everyone in a high position liked to inscribe words.
Lin Changhe had arranged everything, so they directly entered the Lingyin Temple and went straight to the place where Yan Chaozong was. This was not the first time that Qin Sheng had come to the Lingyin Temple. No matter whether it was a blessed land of Taoism or a famous mountain of Buddhism, Qin Sheng would definitely pay his respects to the top of the mountain every time he came to a place. Therefore, he had been to the Lingyin Temple several times. However, except for the first time, he just wandered around casually.
In the Mahavira Hall of the Lingyin Temple, Yan Chaozong, who was dressed casually, was discussing the Dharma with a master. Although Yan Chaozong was a rich playboy, he was not an ignorant wastrel. He was proficient in many kinds of knowledge. Although he was not erudite and knowledgeable, he had dabbled in many things and was multi-talented. Otherwise, how could he be appointed as the future successor of the Yan Family by Old Master Yan?
At the foot of the steps outside the Mahavira Hall, Feng He, who was wearing a black leather jacket, was waiting for Yan Chaozong with an umbrella. Or maybe he was waiting for Qin Sheng's arrival. After so many days, how would he feel?
When Lin Changhe and Qin Sheng walked in front of Feng He, Feng He stretched out his hand and blocked their way. Lin Changhe was a little angry. As an elder of the Lin Family, even the servants of the Yan Family were so arrogant. Qin Sheng did not care. He just looked at this ruthless person who had chased him all the way to Western Sichuan and wanted to kill him. Unfortunately, they had paid a heavy price in the end.
Feng He stared at Qin Sheng with his vicious eyes and sneered, "I didn't expect that you could still be alive."
Qin Sheng shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Do you want me to die so much?"
Feng He replied straightforwardly, "Anyone who does harm to the Yan Family is my enemy." The two of them met each other not because they were old friends, but because they were enemies. Therefore, they did not exchange pleasantries and only talked to each other straightforwardly.
Originally, Qin Sheng wanted to refute, but he thought that Feng He was useless and did not have the strength to kill him. In the end, he gave up. Today, he was here to admit his cowardice and be a grandson. There was no need to haggle with a dog. Therefore, he just smiled bitterly and did not say anything.
Chang Baji stared at Feng He as if he was looking at a clown. To him, Feng He was just a defeated opponent. If one day Qin Sheng had the strength to fight with Yan Chaozong, Feng He would definitely be his first prey.
However, when Feng He saw Chang Baji, he did not dare to look down on him at all. He knew that Chang Baji was a real big shot. It was completely because of his protection that Qin Sheng could live to this day. Otherwise, they would not have lured the tiger away from the mountain and then dared to kill Qin Sheng. Unfortunately, Uncle Zhao and his gang were not lucky.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here." As an elder of the Lin Family, Lin Changhe had enough confidence to face Qin Sheng and Yan Chaozong. He could be polite to them, but you could not ignore him. Yan Chaozong pretended to be like this. If it was only Qin Sheng, it would not matter. But now that he was here, he was somewhat angry, so he directly ordered.
Qin Sheng nodded silently and was ready to go to the Mahavira Hall. Feng He stopped him again and said, "Young Master asked you to wait here."
Lin Changhe was annoyed and said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you point your fingers here?"
When Lin Changhe got angry, Feng He did not dare to say anything. He did not dare to show off in front of the Second Master of the Lin Family. At that time, even the Young Master could not protect him. Therefore, he could only step back obediently.
It was true that Lin Changhe bullied the weak and feared the strong. Qin Sheng finally vented his anger and walked slowly to the Mahavira Hall.
Yan Chaozong, who was in the Mahavira Hall, did not notice the movement outside at first. It was not until he heard the noise that he saw Lin Changhe and Qin Sheng had arrived.
Qin Sheng was already walking towards him. Yan Chaozong smiled at the master in front of him and said, "An old friend has come to visit. I won't bother you today. I'll come again another day."
"Amitabha. Benefactor, please go ahead." The master with an extraordinary bearing smiled happily.
Yan Chaozong then stood up and walked out of the hall unhurriedly. He stared at Qin Sheng with a slightly sarcastic smile, as if he was the winner. Qin Sheng, who was at the bottom of the stairs, also saw Yan Chaozong. He stopped subconsciously and looked calm. He just faced Yan Chaozong and tried not to let Yan Chaozong notice his subtle reaction.
They were old friends, rivals in love, and enemies.
One was on the stairs, and the other was at the bottom. They just looked at each other, which seemed to reflect their current situation. However, no matter whether it was Qin Sheng or Yan Chaozong, they had won or lost many times. Qin Sheng lost his future and won Lin Su. Yan Chaozong lost Lin Su and crushed Qin Sheng.
In the end, standing on the stairs, Yan Chaozong took the initiative to say, "The fast noodles in Shifang Garden taste good. I eat a bowl every time I come here. Do you want to have a try?"
Yan Chaozong's attitude surprised Qin Sheng a little. He even took the initiative to invite him to eat fast noodles. However, it was a good beginning after all. Even though Qin Sheng had eaten breakfast, he had to show respect to Yan Chaozong. So he said in a low voice, "I'll do as you say."
Yan Chaozong smiled with a complicated expression. Then he walked in the direction of Shifang Garden. When he passed by Qin Sheng, he did not look at him at all. Qin Sheng followed him resentfully.
On the other side, Feng He and Chang Baji subconsciously wanted to follow him. However, Yan Chaozong took the lead and waved his hand without looking back. Feng He immediately understood what was going on and did not follow him. Qin Sheng turned to look at Chang Baji and nodded. Then Chang Baji did not follow him.
Lin Changhe said casually, "This is their business. Let them solve it." He believed that Yan Chaozong was not so narrow-minded and would not mess around in this place. Lin Changhe had done what he should do. The rest depended on Qin Sheng. Consequently, he did not intend to stay here anymore. He planned to ask for a cup of tea from a master who was familiar with him in the Lingyin Temple.
As a result, only Chang Baji and Feng He were left here.
Feng He stared at Chang Baji and said respectfully and provocatively, "If there is a chance, I would like to learn from you again."
Chang Baji said in a tone that was neither light nor heavy, "I have never spared a person twice." His words were a little heavy and full of killing intent.
Feng He was not angry at all. He sneered and said, "Senior, are you so confident?"
"If you don't believe me, you can have a try at any time. I will wait." Chang Baji did not bother to pay attention to this loser and walked in the direction of Shifang Garden. Of course, he would not disturb the detailed conversation between Qin Sheng and Yan Chaozong. However, the closer he was to Qin Sheng, the farther away the danger was from Qin Sheng.
Shifang Garden, which was a restaurant for outsiders in the Lingyin Temple, had always been famous for its vegetarian dishes. In particular, it was famous for its fast noodles. Many tourists and pilgrims who came here would taste a bowl of fast noodles after offering incense. In the past, every time Yan Chaozong accompanied the seniors in his family to the Lingyin Temple, he would eat a bowl of fast noodles. This habit had been maintained.
At this moment, there were not many guests in Shifang Garden. Qin Sheng and Yan Chaozong sat opposite to each other by the door. Although the fast noodles had not been served, there was an undercurrent.
