Trouble!
In China, the provincial capital was the economic, political and cultural center of a province. However, in some provinces, the provincial capital was overshadowed by other cities, such as Tsingtao and Jinan in Shandong, Xiamen and Fuzhou in Fujian, Shenyang and Dalian in Liaoning, etc., who were better than the provincial capital in terms of economy and culture and became dazzling stars. Jinan suffered the most. In the past two years, not only had Tsingtao overshadowed it economically, but also Yantai had surpassed it.
The reason why Tsingtao's economy was the best in Shandong was that it was a natural port city near the sea. Of course, its economy was developed. Secondly, Tsingtao had always been a famous historical and cultural city in modern history. Of course, it was also an economic center.
At the seaside of the music square, Song Zhiqiu walked with Qin Sheng at a moderate pace. Qin Sheng's clothes were bought randomly in Jiujiang. They looked a bit sloppy and thin. After all, it was much colder in the north than in the south. Fortunately, the weather was good today. Song Zhiqiu, who was next to Qin Sheng, looked like a mature model. She was wearing a V-neck sweater and a gray windbreaker, a Hermès scarf around her neck, high-heeled boots and a pair of tight jeans. Perhaps because the sun was too dazzling, she was also wearing a pair of big sunglasses. She was totally different from Qin Sheng, who was next to her.
The comfortable sunshine made people feel a little lazy. Qin Sheng and Song Zhiqiu might have reached a tacit understanding, so they didn't oppose each other. Therefore, the atmosphere was relatively harmonious.
This was the downtown area of Tsingtao. Not far away was the Olympic Sailing Center, a landmark of Tsingtao. There were many tourists and citizens here and there.
Song Zhiqiu suddenly thought of this and asked casually, "Last year, someone suddenly sent me a message, saying that the ancient jade of our Song family was in the Tal Temple in Qinghai. Was it you?"
Qin Sheng answered honestly, "Yes, it was in Hangzhou. I met the Zhang family by chance, so I had to make a deal with them. They helped me do something, and I told them where the ancient jade was. Later, I thought that if they really got it, the Song family would definitely hate me. So I sent you a message. "
Song Zhiqiu laughed at herself and said, "I'm surprised that you still remember my phone number."
Qin Sheng shrugged and said, "Have you forgotten that I have a photographic memory? Otherwise, how could I have called you last night? "
Song Zhiqiu said disapprovingly, "I actually hope that you will forget it. In this way, we will not meet again, and you will not disturb my life." She did not feel very honored.
Qin Sheng did not dwell on this topic. Instead, he asked, "What was the final result? Between you and the Zhang family, who got the ancient jade?"
Song Zhiqiu stared at Qin Sheng disdainfully as she said, "We were a little late. In the end, the Zhang family got ahead of us. If our family knew that you were in Tsingtao, I don't need to say more about the consequences. I guess that you would not be able to leave Tsingtao." If her family knew that she was entangled with Qin Sheng, she would definitely be scolded to death.
Qin Sheng laughed and said, "Don't worry. I will leave in two days."
"Where are you going?" Song Zhiqiu didn't want to care about Qin Sheng's business anymore, but she still asked out of the blue.
He wanted to go to Hong Kong to look for Jiang Xianbang first. When Zhuang Zhou had given him this identity, he had asked him to apply for the corresponding passport and Hong Kong and Macao Travel Permit in Xiamen. During this period, he had experienced so much. It was time for him to settle down again. Now he was a little impatient and anxious, which was not a good sign.
Uncle Jiang had experienced so many storms and waves, so he could give him a lot of life advice. In this way, he could start the next road and not be too confused. However, he was confused about one thing. So far, he had not contacted Uncle Zhuang. He did not know where he was and what he was doing. This was unexpected.
Qin Sheng answered truthfully, "Hong Kong."
Song Zhiqiu frowned and asked, "Hong Kong? Do you have friends in Hong Kong? "
Qin Sheng nodded and replied, "There is an elder there. He should be able to help me a lot."
Song Zhiqiu sighed and asked, "What on earth have you experienced in the past two years? I feel that you have suffered a lot of setbacks and grievances. You are not like this in the past. You seem to be a different person."
Qin Sheng said, "After leaving Shandong, I went to many places. At that time, I didn't have any ideas. I just wanted to walk around. Later, I went back to Shanghai and stayed there for several months. Then I offended someone and almost lost my life. I recuperated in Xiamen for half a year. After I recovered, I went to Hangzhou. I had been in Hangzhou for several months. Originally, I had a firm foothold. Just a few days ago, I was driven out of Hangzhou again. At that time, I wanted to go to Wuhan. However, the news was leaked and I was betrayed by a trusted friend. I couldn't go to Wuhan anymore. So I had to choose Tsingtao. "
After hearing this, Song Zhiqiu said, "It's really complicated."
Qin Sheng laughed at himself and said, "Let's not talk about this. Maybe this is my fate. I am destined to drift for the first half of my life. I don't know when I can settle down."
Song Zhiqiu squinted and said, "Maybe you want too much, so you have to pay more than others."
Qin Sheng sighed with emotion as he said, "Maybe. When I can't move anymore, I might be able to settle down." Then, he embraced the blue sky and white clouds with both hands. After taking a deep breath, he said, "Tsingtao is really a good place. Let me take a good look around. I don't know when I can come here again. But I will definitely not look for you again."
His words made Song Zhiqiu feel inexplicably sad. However, she did not say anything. It was destined that they would miss each other. Their presumptuous behavior last night put an end to this relationship. Qin Sheng had his way to go, so did she. Maybe they were really not the same kind of people.
During the whole day, Song Zhiqiu accompanied Qin Sheng to wander around nearby. In the end, she booked a new hotel for Qin Sheng, which was the Westin behind the Deep Blue Center. In this way, it would be more convenient for them to go out. Of course, she would not let Qin Sheng stay in the Deep Blue Center again. It was already very risky yesterday. If it was seen by others, first of all, it would be bad for her reputation. Second, it would put Qin Sheng in danger. Besides, what had happened between them last night, of course, they could not continue like this.
In the evening, Song Zhiqiu took Qin Sheng to a seafood restaurant in Badaguan. She knew that Qin Sheng liked seafood and the seafood in this restaurant was very authentic. So she took Qin Sheng there.
In the next three days, Song Zhiqiu put aside all her work and social activities and accompanied Qin Sheng to wander around Tsingtao. This was the only thing she could do for Qin Sheng. Although she did not put aside what had happened before, Qin Sheng's current state was obviously not right. As Qin Sheng's friend and a woman who used to like Qin Sheng, she naturally hoped that Qin Sheng could be better. So she not only took Qin Sheng to all the scenic spots in the downtown area, including Laoshan and Huangdao, but Qin Sheng could not stop praising the Laoshan green tea. She also borrowed her friend's yacht and took Qin Sheng out to sea once.
Qin Sheng would leave Tsingtao tomorrow. He had already bought a plane ticket to Shenzhen. Tonight could be regarded as his last dinner. As Qin Sheng said, after this farewell, he did not know when they would meet again. Even if they met, they would probably pretend not to know each other.
Food stalls by the sea were Qin Sheng's favorite. It was also a place where Song Zhiqiu had taken Qin Sheng to before. Beer, seafood, and barbecue. Song Zhiqiu was familiar with Qin Sheng's temperament. She knew that he did not like those high-end restaurants. He only liked this kind of food stalls that were down-to-earth. Of course, they could only do it indoors in this season. If they did it outdoors, they would have been frozen to death.
Seafood and barbecue were all over the table. Qin Sheng and Song Zhiqiu held the beer mugs. The authentic Tsingtao beer tasted absolutely good.
Song Zhiqiu picked up the mug and said, "I wish you no more ups and downs in your life. The road ahead is bright and sunny. I also wish you can find a confidante as soon as possible. You don't have to travel all over the world as your home."
"Thank you." Qin Sheng thanked her sincerely.
In the corner, Zhuang Zhou and Nangong lowered their heads and ate seafood. They went wherever Qin Sheng and Song Zhiqiu went these days. It could be regarded as a public tour. They liked Tsingtao a little.
"I have booked the plane tickets. You will take the same flight with Qin Sheng tomorrow. I will take another flight later. I have booked a first-class ticket for you. You will board the plane at the last minute. In this way, you will leave early when you get off the plane. You will not meet each other. "Zhuang Zhou stared at Qin Sheng, who was not far away, and arranged the arrangement for Nangong in a low voice.
Nangong sighed and said with hidden bitterness, "It's really troublesome. We just arrived in Tsingtao. Now we have to go to Shenzhen and then Hong Kong. When will it end?"
"I don't know. Let's wait for Beijing's arrangement." Zhuang Zhou smiled bitterly.
Nangong stared at Qin Sheng and said, "When he returns to Beijing, he must compensate me for what I have done. Otherwise, I will definitely not spare him."
"That depends on your ability." Zhuang Zhou smiled and said.
In No. 8 Laiyang Road, Song Zhiqiu was not willing to live in the building developed by the Song Family. However, the other members of the Song Family were quite willing to live there. After all, the Song Family was a luxury house manufacturer in Tsingtao. Living in the luxury house of the Song Family, they did not need to pay for it.
Song Jianing, Song Zhiqiu's cousin, lived here. Except for the elders, he was the one who loved Song Zhiqiu the most in the Song Family. After Qin Sheng ran away on the night before the engagement party, he led some people to chase after Qin Sheng for nearly two months. If he had not been so busy with work, he would not have stopped until he caught Qin Sheng.
In the direct line of the Song Family, Song Jianing was the eldest grandson, and Song Zhiqiu was the eldest granddaughter. Consequently, they had a very good relationship.
These days, Song Jianing had been on a business trip in Shanghai. He had just come back today. Every time he went on a business trip, he would bring Song Zhiqiu gifts and invite her to dinner.
Today was the same. Unexpectedly, when he called Song Zhiqiu, she said that she had something to do and was having dinner with her friends. In this way, Song Jianing felt that something was wrong.
Before this, the company's assistant had told him that Song Zhiqiu had not come to work in the company for four days. This was not Song Zhiqiu's character. In addition, Song Jianing's friend had said that he had seen Song Zhiqiu go out to sea with a strange man on a yacht.
Originally, Song Jianing had planned to ask Song Zhiqiu when he saw her. Unexpectedly, he did not see her today. Song Jianing had to think more. Could it be that his sister was in love?
Consequently, Song Jianing called Xiaoliu, Song Zhiqiu's driver. After the phone was connected, he said on purpose, "Xiaoliu, where is Zhiqiu? Why can't I get through to her? "
"Well …" Xiaoliu said hesitantly.
Song Jianing followed up and asked, "I already know something. It depends on whether you are willing to tell me. If you want to continue working in the Song Family, you should tell me the truth. Otherwise, you can leave tomorrow. Which man has Zhiqiu been with these days? "
Song Jianing was totally talking nonsense, but he hit the nail on the head. Xiaoliu, the driver, had a guilty conscience. Hearing Young Master Song's words, he was so scared that he had to tell him everything.
After hearing Xiaoliu's words, Song Jianing's expression changed instantly. He hung up the phone directly and went straight to the place where Song Zhiqiu and Qin Sheng had dinner …
