Chapter 302 Failed
Most of the things in life would not go your way, and no one could be omnipotent.
No one could have a smooth life, and no one could be omnipotent. Everyone had things that they could not get or accomplish. Everyone had regrets and regrets. These beautiful and unpleasant things formed a life.
No one could be sure whether the choice at the moment was right or wrong. But they had to make a choice after all. After all, many times in life were multiple-choice questions. One after another, they formed a score.
Qin Sheng locked himself in the study. Every time he had to make a choice, he would be alone and think about it quietly. Finally, he made a choice. It was the same today.
A bottle of liquor, a pack of cigarettes, and a song that he would never get tired of listening to.
He smoked, drank, listened to the song, and slowly fell into deep thought. Time passed, from 10 o 'clock to 12 o' clock, and then to 2 o 'clock. Qin Sheng's brain was playing a game, and he had weighed all the pros and cons.
If he refused, he would either start a full-scale war with Yan Chaozong, or he could only take Lin Su away from this troublesome place. It was uncertain whether Chang Baji and the others would still follow him. Everything that he had worked so hard to get would be wasted. The Lin family was completely disappointed.
If he agreed, he would lose his dignity, which he did not want to lose the most. He would become the laughing stock of Yan Chaozong. He would be laughed at by many people, and many people would be disappointed. But he could continue to live in Hangzhou, and he would not have to wander around. If he was lucky, he could make a name for himself here many years later.
For many people, this was an easy choice, but for Qin Sheng, it was a difficult choice. He was afraid that after making this choice today, he would have no principles and bottom line in the future. He was afraid that he would not be that young man anymore.
But he had no choice.
So he could only make this choice.
After he finished drinking and smoking, the song was still playing. However, Qin Sheng had already fallen asleep leaning against the chair. In his dream, he had returned to his childhood. His grandfather was sitting under the old locust tree, enjoying the cool breeze, leisurely and contented. He was playing in the yard, carefree and carefree.
It seemed that every time Qin Sheng encountered setbacks or difficulties, he could dream of his grandfather.
When they were young, many people yearned to grow up, as if they could travel the world with a sword when they grew up. When they grew up, many people wanted to go back to their childhood, because they found that the world they yearned for did not exist, and there were too many troubles and sorrows.
At dawn, Qin Sheng opened his eyes and took out his phone. In the end, he sent a text message to Yan Chaozong. "You decide the time and place."
He admitted defeat.
On this day, Qin Sheng turned off his phone and locked himself in the study. He did not contact anyone, did not eat or drink, and only smoked and drank. He completely let himself sink into depravity. He had once believed that he would never be a good-for-nothing in this life. But now, he had to kneel down and apologize to someone. Wasn't that enough of a good-for-nothing?
In the Amanfayun Hotel, when Yan Chaozong woke up in the early morning, he saw Qin Sheng's text message on the screen of his mobile phone and burst into laughter all of a sudden. He felt extremely carefree and comfortable, which startled the beautiful campus belle in the quilt next to him. The beautiful campus belle rushed to Hangzhou from Shanghai last night. After all, Yan Chaozong felt somewhat lonely in Hangzhou.
Yan Chaozong shouted excitedly, "Hahaha, I thought you were so awesome. I thought the man Lin Su chose would be indomitable. But you still admitted defeat. You are just so-so, Qin Sheng." Yan Chaozong was very excited.
The pretty campus belle asked in a daze, "Honey, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, go back to sleep." Yan Chaozong patted the back of the pretty campus belle and comforted her. Then he put on his clothes and got up.
After getting up, Yan Chaozong dialed Qu Huanxi's number directly without washing up. Last night, Qu Huanxi had been drinking alone all night. In the end, he got himself drunk. He hadn't gotten up until Yan Chaozong's call.
Qu Huanxi did not see who was calling. He had a splitting headache and asked casually, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Yan Chaozong." Yan Chaozong came straight to the point.
Qu Huanxi became a little sober and asked, "Oh, Childe Yan, what can I do for you?"
"He agreed. You can get ready. We will discuss the location at noon the day after tomorrow." Yan Chaozong arranged directly without any nonsense.
Qu Huanxi was stunned. Although he liked to join in the fun and humiliate others, he could not be happy today. Because the woman he liked the most was about to get married. Nothing could arouse his interest. He could only deal with it and said in a low voice, "I see. I will arrange it now."
After hanging up the phone, Qu Huanxi continued to sleep. Everyone had bad moods, including him.
Men would always be restless if they could not get what they wanted. They would not cherish what they had. Perhaps, even if Qu Huanxi had gotten that woman back then, he would have gotten tired of her in a short time based on his character. But he just could not get her. This was the root of the problem.
The most helpless thing for men was the sense of failure.
Qin Sheng's phone was turned off. At first, nothing happened. But at noon, it became serious. Cao Da had something to discuss with Qin Sheng. He still wanted to help Qin Sheng more or less. However, Qin Sheng's phone was turned off. Hence, he went to look for Chang Baji. There was no news from Chang Baji either. This time, nobody could find Qin Sheng.
Chang Baji could only contact Lin Su, because no one had seen Qin Sheng today. Maybe only Lin Su knew where Qin Sheng was. Lin Su did not go back to the Golden Coast last night. In the morning, she directly went to the company from Martial Arts No.1. She was ready to resign. Last night, her Second Uncle discussed with her and planned to let her be in charge of the affairs of the Lin family in Hangzhou. After all, she was capable. Moreover, how could the daughter of the Lin family work for others? She would be laughed at if others knew about it.
Lin Su told Chang Baji that she had not been home for two days. Chang Baji panicked, afraid that something bad had happened to Qin Sheng. Lin Su also realized that something was wrong. She hurried to ask Chang Baji. Chang Baji told her that Qin Sheng's phone was turned off and no one could contact him.
Lin Su told Chang Baji that the last time Qin Sheng called her was last night. After thinking for a while, Chang Baji contacted Gu Qingyang. Gu Qingyang had been Qin Sheng's driver for two days, so he might know where Qin Sheng was. Gu Qingyang was surprised to receive the call. He had been waiting for Qin Sheng at the gate of the Golden Coast community in the morning. Qin Sheng had not come out yet. He had texted Qin Sheng, but Qin Sheng did not reply. He thought Qin Sheng was busy, so he did not call him but waited outside.
Receiving the call from his Senior Uncle, Gu Qingyang said honestly, "Senior Uncle, I went back after driving Brother Qin home last night. I arrived at the gate of the community at seven o 'clock this morning, but Brother Qin has not come out yet. If he is not at home, I definitely don't know where he is. "
Therefore, he could only exclude the last possibility, which was his home in the Golden Coast. As Gu Qingyang had said, if Qin Sheng was not at home, no one knew where he was. In a big city with millions of people, it was easy for a person to disappear.
Therefore, Lin Su and Chang Baji went to the Golden Coast at the same time …
Lin Su and Chang Baji arrived at the Golden Coast almost at the same time. Lin Su could tell that she was worried about Qin Sheng. When she saw Chang Baji, she asked, "What happened to him these days?"
Of course, he could not tell her about that. Chang Baji had to say, "I was not in the city these days, so I really don't know."
Lin Su could only ask Gu Qingyang, "Qingyang, do you know?"
"I don't know. When I drove Brother Qin home last night, I didn't find anything strange." Gu Qingyang shook his head. He thought that Qin Sheng might be missing because of what happened last night. However, it was Qin Sheng's first love. Of course, he could not tell Lin Su about it. Otherwise, it would cause family conflicts.
Lin Su felt somewhat helpless. She frowned and had to go home with Chang Baji and Gu Qingyang to see whether Qin Sheng was at home. When she opened the door, the living room was empty. There was no one in the room. When Chang Baji was about to check the study, he found that the door of the study was locked. He finally felt relieved, because he was sure that Qin Sheng was in the study.
Seeing Chang Baji's expression, Lin Su frowned and asked, "Is he inside?"
Chang Baji explained, "The door is locked from the inside. He should be inside."
Lin Su gnashed her teeth and knocked on the door. "Qin Sheng, are you inside?"
No one answered. Lin Su knocked on the door again and said, "What happened to you? Don't scare me."
Before Lin Su finished her words, Qin Sheng had already opened the door.
When they saw that the door was opened, both Lin Su and Chang Baji were completely relieved. However, Qin Sheng in front of them was quite embarrassed. His hair was disheveled and his face was greasy. His eyes were dull. He reeked of alcohol and smoke. The room was also a mess.
"Why are you here?" No matter how depraved Qin Sheng was, he would definitely not see anything strange in front of Lin Su.
Lin Su said somewhat angrily, "What happened to you? You turned off your phone. None of us could find you. We thought something happened to you."
"I'm fine. I was just thinking about something. Maybe my phone ran out of battery and turned off automatically." Qin Sheng said with a smile. It seemed that he was really fine.
Although Lin Su had some doubts, in front of outsiders, she could only say, "Well, don't do this in the future. You really scared everyone."
Seeing Lin Su's beautiful face turned pale and seeing Chang Baji's anxiety and worry, Qin Sheng was more determined to make that choice.
Qin Sheng touched Lin Su's hair and admitted, "Okay, I got it. I'm hungry. I haven't eaten yet."
Lin Su was satisfied and said, "I'm going to make something for you."
After Lin Su left, Qin Sheng said, "Qingyang, go to the living room and sit for a while. Lao Chang, I have something to tell you."
Chang Baji followed Qin Sheng into the study and closed the door. The study was in a mess. The floor was full of cigarette butts and two bottles of white wine. It could be seen what Qin Sheng had experienced.
"I've already made my choice." Qin Sheng opened the window and said without turning his head, "Maybe I'll let you down."
"Is this the reason why you are degenerate and give up on yourself?" Chang Baji asked in a sarcastic tone. Now he understood why Qin Sheng turned off his phone. He was completely avoiding it.
Qin Sheng did not say anything and remained silent.
Chang Baji continued, "Do you know what the symbol of maturity is? Maturity is compromise. You can't not compromise. Some things are there, forcing you to compromise. I know you have your own principles and character, but people have to gradually change with the environment to adapt to the survival rules and game rules of this society. I dare not say that you can be flexible, but at least you should be able to pick up and let go. If you can't let go now, how can you do it in the future? Not everyone can bow and bend their knees. But those who can do it, even if they are as humble as the dust, can also be a dog's tail flower. "
Chang Baji rarely talked about these long principles, but his relationship with Qin Sheng was complicated. He did not want to see Qin Sheng be defeated by reality because of this matter.
Chang Baji's words made Qin Sheng's depressed mood gradually brighten. Yes, he could not let go of these things. This time he shed all pretenses and survived, but what about the next time?
"Do you know there is a kind of fish called lungfish? If you put it in the water, it breathes with its gills. If it is still on land, it breathes with its lungs. If there is nothing, it doesn't eat or drink and hibernates in the mud for several years. You are also a person who has been to the gates of hell many times. Don't you understand? Everything that can't kill you will only make you stronger. "In the end, Chang Baji's tone had become extremely tough.
If he finished saying these words and Qin Sheng still could not stand up, then he would be completely disappointed. Maybe he would leave Qin Sheng. A person without ambition and confidence was more terrible than anything else.
