Taking the Initiative
Since Xue Ke and Gu Yongning had already met with Yan Chaozong, Qin Sheng could naturally infer that these two groups of people had colluded with each other. Who knew when they had hooked up?
When two groups of enemies from different circles met, Qin Sheng would not think that they were just drinking tea and chatting. There seemed to be no other explanation except for joining hands to target him. After all, there were no such coincidences in the world. Too many coincidences were intentional, it was just that outsiders did not know.
Therefore, since Qin Sheng had met Xue Ke and Gu Yongning tonight, after considering some of the logic behind it, he decided to make a big deal out of it and magnify their conflict.
When Qin Sheng returned home, Lin Su had already fallen asleep on the sofa. She did not call Qin Sheng to come home early. She knew that Qin Sheng had a lot of things to do recently. Of course, Lin Su also had a lot of things to deal with. In addition to the Lin family's company, she also had to help take care of Uncle Lin and Aunt Wang. After all, Qin Sheng did not have time.
Qin Sheng gently carried Lin Su into the master bedroom. Lin Su, who was sleeping soundly, was murmuring in her sleep. No one knew what she was talking about or what she was dreaming about. Anyway, she did not wake up.
Qin Sheng covered her with the quilt and kissed her forehead gently. Then he got up and went into the study. He wanted to deduce the environment he was in, predict any possible situation, and then come up with corresponding countermeasures.
This time, he wanted to prepare for the worst. First of all, if something really happened to the Qin family, and then if the Zhu family really did not intend to help, then what would be the direction of everything? What would be his final situation?
This night, Qin Sheng was very energetic and did not feel sleepy at all. It seemed that all the pressure had turned into fighting spirit. No matter how confused the road ahead was, there would be a time when he rushed out of it.
In the morning, when Lin Su woke up, it was already 7: 30. Lin Su vaguely remembered that she seemed to have slept on the sofa last night. Why did she wake up in bed?
There was only one answer. That was, Qin Sheng came back last night and carried her back to the room. But when Lin Su turned around, she found that Qin Sheng was not next to her, which made her a little confused.
Lin Su quickly got up. As soon as she opened the door, she heard something in the kitchen. Lin Su quickly walked to the kitchen and found Qin Sheng, wearing an apron, making breakfast. There were fried eggs, fruits and so on on the table.
He saw Lin Su, who had woken up at some point, standing not far away from him. He smiled and teased her. "I just made breakfast and was about to wake you up. You're already up. Are you hungry?" Lin Su's eyes lit up.
Lin Su did not say anything. She just pouted and ran to Qin Sheng. Then, she hugged Qin Sheng tightly and pressed her face against his chest like a spoiled little girl.
Qin Sheng patted Lin Su's shoulder and said, "Alright, alright, what's going on? Go take a shower and change your clothes. You still have to go to work after dinner."
Lin Su muttered, "When did you come back last night? Why didn't you wake me up when you came back?"
"I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't want to disturb you. You must be exhausted recently," Qin Sheng explained with a smile. He felt somewhat guilty about Lin Su. He had promised Lin Su to go back to Ningbo to pay respects to his mother, but he had postponed it. He had promised Lin Su to visit Second Uncle Lin, but he had no time, let alone care about Lin Su's work.
"I know you are worried about me. Go and take a shower." Qin Sheng patted Lin Su and told her not to worry about him.
After breakfast, they went to their respective companies. Yang Daniu, who went back last night, was waiting for Qin Sheng in the underground parking lot. Chang Baji taught him these things. Of course, there were other bodyguards.
When Qin Sheng arrived at the company, he did not see Zhong Shan, which surprised him. Zhong Shan came earlier than Qin Sheng every day. After asking Yan Pan, he learned that Zhong Shan was on the phone in the conference room. It seemed that something went wrong.
When Qin Sheng arrived at the company, he did not see Zhong Shan, which surprised him a little. Every day, Zhong Shan came earlier than Qin Sheng. After asking Yan Pan, Qin Sheng learned that Zhong Shan was on the phone in the conference room. It seemed that something had gone wrong and he did not look good.
Qin Sheng did not think much about it. Who didn't have something to do? He thought it might be Zhong Shan's private affairs. He began to deal with today's work, and Yan Pan reported the progress of each matter by his side.
Half an hour later, Zhong Shan returned to the office. He still looked pale. Qin Sheng asked casually, "Brother Zhong, what's wrong? What happened?"
Zhong Shan did not mind Yan Pan's presence. He directly told Qin Sheng, "Shengjing submitted his resignation report to Beijing."
Qin Sheng's face changed instantly when he heard this news. He did not expect that what Zhong Shan was worried about was this bad news. Basically, Sheng Jing had been internally designated as the second-in-command of the new company after the reorganization. After Qin Sheng left Shanghai, Sheng Jing would be fully responsible for the new company. Moreover, Qin Sheng still needed Sheng Jing's help to participate in the reorganization.
Now, Sheng Jing had resigned. What the hell was he supposed to do?
Qin Sheng frowned and asked, "Is there no way to save it?"
Zhong Shan said truthfully, "I don't know who is in charge of this matter in Beijing. So far, they have agreed to Shengjing's resignation without informing us at all. I just called Shengjing, and he said that a large domestic bank was poaching him with a lot of money. He has no choice, and he likes that position very much."
Qin Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "We can keep him by paying him a high salary and giving him enough power."
Zhong Shan thought for a moment and replied, "Let's not talk about whether we have this right or not. The most important thing is that Shengjing has made up his mind. We have no way to change it."
Qin Sheng gave in again and said, "No, let me talk to him. Maybe there is still a chance?"
Zhong Shan stopped him directly and said, "I don't think it is necessary, and I think this matter is too strange. Shengjing's resignation was too sudden. When I talked to him during this period, he did not show any signs of resignation at all. Moreover, he was full of expectations for the new company and said a series of ideas. He suddenly resigned, and the people in Beijing agreed without hesitation. I don't believe that there is no ghost."
Zhong Shan's analysis made Qin Sheng seem to understand. He asked, "What do you mean?"
Zhong Shan said without hesitation, "Someone is targeting you."
Qin Sheng fell into deep thought, and his face was a little serious. Yan Pan had already left the office sensibly. These high-level fights were not something she could interfere with.
Zhong Shan continued, "You and I are very clear that this time we went south to Shanghai to reorganize several companies in Shanghai. It is nothing more than a test for you by some people in the headquarters. It may be the board of directors, or it may be other shareholders. You will certainly not stay in Shanghai all the time. As long as the things in Shanghai are successfully completed, you may return to Beijing to take over the important task. But if the things in Shanghai are delayed for too long, who will benefit the most? "
Qin Sheng understood what was going on no matter how stupid he was. He replied, "Some people do not want the reorganization to be too smooth, so they deliberately make trouble. Their goal is very clear. They are either delaying the time or letting the board of directors be disappointed in me. In this way, it will be difficult for me to take over."
"It is good that you understand." Zhong Shan echoed and nodded.
Qin Sheng frowned and said, "Who do you think it is?"
"There is a mole in the group, but not exactly a mole. The background of each shareholder is unfathomable. If something really happens to Master Qin, and you can't take over, then only these shareholders will benefit." Zhong Shan was not sure who it was, but he still knew about these things.
Qin Sheng squinted and said, "I understand."
"I am very surprised that Master Qin doesn't care about these things?" Zhong Shan asked very doubtfully.
Qin Sheng did not rush to answer. He got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Looking at the prosperous Lujiazui Financial District, he sighed and said, "Maybe he wants to see how my ability is and whether I can successfully complete the task under such conditions. Maybe he is willing but unable."
Zhong Shan was silent for a moment and said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about this now. Don't think too badly about it. Although Shengjing resigned, we still have other backup candidates. But we must catch Xu Yong. If something happens to Xu Yong, then we will be in danger."
Qin Sheng agreed with Zhong Shan's words and immediately said, "You call Xu Yong now and ask him to meet. I will treat him to dinner tonight."
"Okay, I will call him now."
Before the first wave subsided, another wave arose. It seemed that there was a big net being woven in the dark, and Qin Sheng might be the prey, or the prey might be the whole Qin family.
The Qin family's situation had to be considered, and the task in Shanghai had to be completed. Then how should he deal with the new hatred and old hatred? Qin Sheng had to make a choice.
Yan Chaozong definitely had to take action. But Yan Chaozong had brought Xue Ke and Gu Yongning with him. At the same time, he had formed an alliance with Third Master Wu. What should he do?
In that case, there was only one choice, which was to break their alliance and divide them from the inside. This would give him a chance to benefit from it.
Xue Ke and Gu Yongning could not do this. They did not fall for this trick at all. He did not have enough bargaining chips and interests to tempt them. Therefore, Qin Sheng set his target on Third Master Wu.
If he took a step back, he would be in a better position. At least he had to make concessions now. Otherwise, things would become more and more difficult.
Therefore, Qin Sheng chose to take the initiative and talk to Third Master Wu. At least he had to stabilize Third Master Wu.
Since he had made up his mind to make concessions, Qin Sheng immediately called Chang Baji and asked him to confirm whether Third Master Wu was still in Shanghai. They would take the initiative to find Third Master Wu.
In the swimming pool of the W Hotel on the Bund, Xue Ke and Gu Yongning were swimming. Gao Xi and Xu Bin were still sleeping. Their swimming skills were not bad. They had already swum for a kilometer, and it seemed that they were not satisfied.
No one knew when Yan Chaozong arrived. Xue Ke and Gu Yongning said that they had something to talk to him about. They seemed to be in a hurry. Yan Chaozong had to put down his company's affairs and rush over. Fortunately, he was not far away.
After Yan Chaozong arrived, Xue Ke and Gu Yongning came up. They drank and chatted with Yan Chaozong. Xue Ke went straight to the point. "Do you know who we met last night?"
"Except for Qin Sheng, I can't think of anyone else," Yan Chaozong replied very directly.
Gu Yongning was very surprised. "You can even guess this?"
"I don't need to guess. If it was someone else, you don't need to ask me," Yan Chaozong said truthfully. His logical thinking ability had always been very strong.
Xue Ke said directly, "Don't mention it. Let me tell you directly. Last night was really f * cking unlucky. First, we offended the Eldest Miss of the Song Family. Later, we met Qin Sheng. We were threatened by him and almost got into a fight."
"Tell me in detail," Yan Chaozong said very curiously.
Therefore, Xue Ke and Gu Yongning repeated everything that happened last night. After listening, Yan Chaozong frowned and said, "Song Ruyu is Song Hesheng's sister? How did she and Qin Sheng know each other? "
Xue Ke said with a smile, "Don't worry too much. The Song Family and the Qin Family do have some relations. However, the Song Family's status is destined to not intervene in the Qin Family's affairs. Moreover, people like Song Hesheng will not mix with Qin Sheng at all. You don't have to worry too much."
"Then why did you ask me to come here?" Yan Chaozong was puzzled.
Gu Yongning snorted and said, "Qin Sheng is so arrogant. He did not take us seriously at all. He even hit our people in front of us. How can we swallow this?"
