Qin Sheng and Chang Baji left just like that. They had stayed in the Lingyin Temple for more than half an hour, which was shorter than they had imagined. Perhaps no one had expected this. Perhaps they had thought that when the two enemies met, they would at least pretend to be courteous to each other for a few rounds.
Qin Sheng, who originally wanted to burn incense, was not in the mood anymore. They held an umbrella and left the Lingyin Temple slowly. Chang Baji did not ask much on the way. It was not until they got in the car that he opened his mouth and said, "Not satisfactory?"
"Lao Chang, when people are not powerful, they can only be humiliated in all kinds of ways. What they made me do today, sooner or later, I will pay them back double." Qin Sheng's eyes were like torches. He was not a person who returned good for evil, that was the way of a saint. He was just a nobody who had a nose and two eyes. He would have love and hate, love and hate, and he would be happy and unhappy. Therefore, he could only return good for evil. In this way, he could live to his heart's content.
Chang Baji knew what Qin Sheng meant, and it was also within his expectation. He thought that Qin Sheng dared to make this choice because he knew what he would experience. But what was the final result?
"Kowtow and apologize." Qin Sheng did not hide and said honestly.
For ordinary people, if they offended a big shot, kowtowing and apologizing might be a piece of cake. As a man, as long as it was over, it would be fine. Perhaps many people often kowtowed and apologized, and gradually, they would not feel that it was a big deal.
But for Qin Sheng, kowtowing and apologizing was equivalent to breaking his legs. He did not know when he could stand up again. This might be more uncomfortable than killing him.
Chang Baji was slightly surprised. It was simple for ordinary people, but for Qin Sheng, it was like hitting the soft spot. Yan Chaozong's shrewdness and means were still fierce.
"Then what about you?" Chang Baji did not persuade Qin Sheng to give up, nor did he say that it was nothing. He just still let Qin Sheng choose. After all, he was not in Qin Sheng's position, so he did not understand Qin Sheng's dilemma. But he was sure that if Qin Sheng really agreed, Qin Sheng's position in his heart would definitely be affected. He would not look down on Qin Sheng because of this, but he would more or less feel uncomfortable.
Qin Sheng closed his eyes, rubbed his temples and said, "Let me think, let me think."
Chang Baji did not disturb Qin Sheng anymore. He just drove quietly and let Qin Sheng make his own choice. This was Qin Sheng's life, not his. He could not make the decision.
The old friend that Lin Changhe was visiting was an eminent monk of the Lingyin Temple, who had been friends with the Lin family for many years. The monk, who was about the same age as the old lady, was a close friend of Grandpa Lin. It was an unwritten rule that the juniors of the Lin family would visit him every time they came.
When Lin Changhe came out, he saw that the bodyguard in Shifang Garden was already standing at the door. Lin Changhe asked in a hurry, "Where are they?"
"Mr. Lin, they've all gone back," the bodyguard reported truthfully.
Surprised, Lin Changhe said, "So fast?"
Of course, he did not ask the bodyguard how their conversation went. Obviously, the bodyguard did not know either. After thinking for a while, he immediately dialed Qin Sheng's number, but Qin Sheng did not answer. Then Chang Baji dialed Yan Chaozong's number. After the phone was answered, Chang Baji said, "Chaozong, how was your conversation?"
"Second Uncle, it seems that Qin Sheng did not tell you. We had a good chat. As for the result, you will know in a few days." Yan Chaozong deliberately kept Chang Baji guessing.
Second Uncle Lin disliked Yan Chaozong more or less. He felt that this young man was too arrogant. After saying a few words, he hung up the phone. From Yan Chaozong's tone, Lin Changhe could tell that he had won this round and should have reached a conclusion. However, Qin Sheng might have to pay a big price. Lin Changhe sighed. Everything was within his expectation. However, Qin Sheng was the only one who had to pay the price.
Thinking of the ups and downs of the Lin family over these years, if the big brother had taken a bigger step, he would not have been in such a difficult situation now. Although it was not as good as the top, it was more than enough. However, which family did not want to go up?
For those rich and powerful families in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, in order to consolidate the family's status and influence, it was an unwritten rule since ancient times. Of course, the Lin family was not an exception. In some places, most of the local industries were controlled by several big families. The relationship between clans might not be obvious in the north, but in the south, the clans had a great influence. This was also the reason why there were more ancestral shrines in the south than in the north.
Lin Changhe could not help thinking that if Lin Su had been a boy, such a thing might not have happened. After all, the education from childhood would have been deeply rooted in her. However, Lin Changhe felt lucky that Lin Su was a girl. If she had been a boy, no matter what, the Lin family would not have recognized her as his girlfriend. He would have been excluded by all the big families related to the Lin family.
The most famous thing should be the one between Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman. Xu Zhimo was Jin Yong's cousin. In various novels, Jin Yong had a cousin who was always a bad guy. In the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, there was a sex maniac called Yunzhonghe. Xu Zhimo's pen name was Yunzhonghe.
Jin Yong's ancestors were from the Cha family in Haining, Zhejiang. The Cha family of Haining was once called "a giant family since the Tang and Song Dynasties, and one of the few families in the south of the Yangtze River" by Emperor Kangxi. How powerful was the Cha family to get such a comment from the Sheng ancestor? The Cha family of Haining had ten Jinshi and five Hanlin uncles and nephews. The in-laws of the Cha family were all rich and powerful families in Haining. The glory of the Cha family was in the Kangxi period. After Yongzheng ascended the throne, the Cha family was involved in Longke's rebellion. Why? Because the in-laws of the Cha family was the Chen family of Haining. The Chen family not only had a close relationship with Yongzheng, but also was the confidant of Qianlong.
In the end, the root of the Cha family's standing was the marriage between the rich and powerful families. For example, Aunt Jiang, whom Jin Yong mentioned, was married to Jiang Baili of the Jiang family. Jin Yong's teacher was Wang Zhean, the younger brother of Wang Guowei. The nephew of the finance family was Chen Congzhou, a professor in the Chen family.
The reason why Xu Zhimo was slandered was that he broke the marriage between the rich and powerful families. He abandoned his wife and married Lu Xiaoman, a social butterfly in Shanghai. The whole Haining family drew a clear line with Xu Zhimo. They only recognized Xu Zhimo's wife and son, and completely ignored Lu Xiaoman.
Because his wife's family was one of the financial oligarchs in Shanghai at that time.
This was also the reason why the Lin family could be deeply rooted in Ningbo. Because they also had marriage with the rich and powerful families in Ningbo. The Yan family, which could become a tycoon in Shanghai from Ningbo, was also the same. Because the rich and powerful families shared most of the resources through marriage. They were bound together for good or bad. This was the real reason why the Lin family looked down on Qin Sheng. It was not because they were not of the same social status, but because the Lin family could not break this tradition.
So Lin Changhe sighed. Fortunately, Lin Su was a daughter and not a son. Otherwise, she would be completely abandoned by the Lin family. These things, whether it was Qin Sheng or Lin Su, would only see the surface, and would not see the essence of things.
At this time, after Qin Sheng and Chang Baji left the Linyin Temple, they did not directly go back to the Golden Coast. Instead, they asked Chang Baji to send them to Jiuxi Rose Garden. Chang Baji would go to Boss Hu's training base later, so Gu Qingyang had returned to work.
Qin Sheng walked to the villa of the Cao family. Cao Ying was in boarding school and could only go home on weekends. Cao Zhang, who was already a senior and had no classes, was playing with his little sister in the living room. Their laughter was endless. Cao Da sat not far away and read the newspaper. His second aunt, Mi Na, was playing with her mobile phone and chatting with Cao Da from time to time. Her eyes were full of happiness. As for his first aunt, Ji Jing, she went to Shanghai to buy goods.
Qin Sheng was quite envious of Cao Zhang. He was only a few years older than Cao Zhang, but he had already felt the hardships of life. He had to shoulder everything on his own. However, Cao Zhang did not have to, because his father was there to shelter him from the wind and rain.
Yu 'er had a good impression of Qin Sheng. She ran to him and hugged his leg and shouted, "Brother Qin."
Cao Zhang said politely, "Brother Qin."
Mi Na looked up slightly and smiled. "Qin Sheng is here."
Cao Da put down the newspaper and stared at Qin Sheng. He felt that Qin Sheng had something to do. Qin Sheng greeted Cao Da and the others politely.
"What's up?" Cao Da asked directly.
Qin Sheng nodded.
"Let's talk in the study." Cao Da stood up slowly and asked Cao Zhang to take his little daughter away.
In the study, Cao Da went in and said with a smile, "It's over. Why are you still so worried? You should let go of everything."
"Uncle Cao, I'm sorry," Qin Sheng said guiltily.
Cao Da frowned and said, "What's wrong? I said it had nothing to do with you. Why do you still feel sorry?"
"Uncle Cao, I already know who the mastermind is. That's why I'm sorry. If I don't tell you, I will feel uneasy." Qin Sheng did not want to hide it, so he said so.
"You know who the mastermind is?" Cao Da asked in surprise.
Qin Sheng said slowly, "My enemy."
"Your enemy?" Cao Da was shocked.
Qin Sheng nodded seriously and said, "Yes, my enemy, the Yan family in Shanghai."
Cao Da was lost in thought and stopped talking …
In Amanfayun's villa, Qu Huanxi had been waiting for Yan Chaozong before he came back from the Lingyin Temple. Since he came here so early in the morning, he obviously knew about the meeting between Yan Chaozong and Qin Sheng. As soon as Yan Chaozong arrived in Hangzhou, he told Qu Huanxi the reason. Qu Huanxi, who was worried about not having a good show to watch, would certainly not miss it.
Seeing Yan Chaozong enter the room, Qu Huanxi stood up quickly and said, "Old Yan, how is it?"
"Everything is going according to plan." Yan Chaozong smiled playfully.
Qu Huanxi said excitedly, "Did he agree?"
"Not yet. I gave him time to think about it," Yan Chaozong replied.
Qu Huanxi pointed at Yan Chaozong and laughed. "You really want to play this guy to death. But if he really agreed, would you really let him go? "
Yan Chaozong rolled his eyes at Qu Huanxi and said sarcastically, "What do you think?"
Qu Huanxi instantly understood what Yan Chaozong meant. Then he laughed. The next plot would be more exciting …
