The storm is coming and the building is about to collapse
Yan Chaozong had suddenly disappeared, and there was a high possibility that something had happened to him. Xu Xingwei did not need to think to know that it was definitely Qin Sheng who had done it. Otherwise, who would have such a big grudge against Yan Chaozong? As for the impact of Yan Chaozong's death on the Yan family, Xu Xingwei was too lazy to think about these things. If he had to worry about everything, how tiring would his life be? Moreover, it was not him who forced Yan Chaozong to deal with Qin Sheng. It was Yan Chaozong who took the initiative to look for him. Therefore, Xu Xingwei could not be blamed for Yan Chaozong's ending.
However, Xu Xingwei still felt that it was a pity that Yan Chaozong had died. After all, he still admired Yan Chaozong very much. Yan Chaozong was also quite good at creating trouble for Qin Sheng. It could be said that he had helped Xu Xingwei a lot. Now that Yan Chaozong was dead, Qin Sheng had no more worries in Shanghai. This made Xu Xingwei somewhat upset. Even the backup Third Master Wu had died. Qin Sheng was really cruel and merciless.
However, it was still possible for them to make some trouble for Qin Sheng. The Yan Family could make the best use of them. No matter how much trouble Third Master Wu caused, Qin Sheng's life in Shanghai would still not be easy. As long as the Qin Family collapsed, they could deal with Qin Sheng in whatever way they wanted.
Finally, what Xu Xingwei had always wanted to confirm was to see the attitude of the Zhu Family. After all, the Zhu Family had a lot of say in Shanghai. If they suppressed Qin Sheng, they could also see the attitude of the Zhu Family. In this way, he could be more certain about how to deal with Qin Sheng in the future.
Xu Xingwei acted very quickly. After discussing with the elders in his family, he directly sent people to Shanghai. Actually, this matter could be either big or small. If it was a big matter, they could pour a lot of dirty water on Qin Sheng. If it was a small matter, they might not be able to find out that it had anything to do with Qin Sheng at all. It would depend on how they handled it.
In Beijing, in the siheyuan of the Qin Family, Qin Changan returned home at four o 'clock, which was rare. These days, if Qin Changan went out, he might not come back until two or three o' clock at night. If he did not go out, he almost stayed in the study. Only Gongsun was qualified to enter his study. Even Qin Ran and Qin Jing were not allowed to enter the study at will. No one knew what he was doing.
Today, Qin Changan seemed to be in a good mood. He called Qin Ran and Qin Jing in advance and told them to go home for dinner. He wanted to cook personally. The sun rose from the west today. Qin Changan had not cooked for a long time.
Originally, Qin Ran had a dinner party in the evening. Since the old man had called her, she could only turn it down without hesitation. However, she was a little suspicious in her heart. Why did the old man suddenly want to cook? Was it a good thing or a bad thing? No matter whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, in fact, it was related to the crisis of the Qin Family. Qin Jing didn't think too much about it. When he heard that his uncle was going to cook personally, he quickly promised to come back earlier to help.
When Qin Ran and Qin Jing came back, Qin Changan was busy cooking in the kitchen. Gongsun and the two chefs were helping him at the side. They seemed to be doing well. This was totally different from the usual Qin Changan. Qin Jing, who was at the door, widened his eyes.
Qin Ran and Qin Jing wanted to come in to help, but they were directly driven out by Qin Changan, who said that Gongsun and the two chefs were enough. They could just wait in the living room obediently. He had prepared fruits and desserts for them to fill their stomachs first. Dinner would be ready soon.
Qin Ran and Qin Jing left helplessly. As soon as they arrived in the living room, Qin Ran called Qin Sheng without hesitation. Qin Sheng had just picked up Lin Su and was about to go for dinner. After greeting her, he asked with a smile, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Before Qin Ran could say anything, Qin Jing, who was next to her, said, "Brother, do you know that Uncle cooked for us today?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Sheng was stunned. At this moment, the old man was still in a good mood. He could not help but ask, "Sister, what's going on? What's wrong with the old man?"
Qin Ran shook her head. "I don't know. He called us in the afternoon and asked us to come back early. It's a pity that you didn't have the chance."
"Well, is something wrong?" Qin Sheng frowned and asked.
Qin Ran said thoughtfully, "I'll try to find out when we eat. I'll tell you later."
Qin Sheng nodded and said, "Okay. I'll wait for your news."
At this time, Qin Jing interrupted and said, "Brother, when will you bring sister-in-law back? I miss you. Come back soon. What's so good about Shanghai? Beijing is our home."
"Hahaha, little girl, you can come to Shanghai. Your sister-in-law and I will take you to eat, drink and have fun." Qin Sheng responded with a smile. Lin Su also smiled and said, "Yaya, if you are free this weekend, you can come to Shanghai for a few days. I miss you, too."
Qin Jing pouted and said, "Let me think about it."
After chatting for a while, they ended the video call. However, they were a little uneasy, especially Qin Sheng. Uncle Gongsun's words on the phone a few days ago made it hard for him to calm down. Although a few days had passed and everything seemed to be the same, Qin Sheng was still a little worried.
Half an hour later, in the Qin Family's dining room, a table full of sumptuous dinners was set up. They were all cooked by Qin Changan, unlike in the past, when most of the dishes were cooked by the chefs of the Qin Family.
Qin Changan was in a good mood. He not only prepared dinner, but also asked Gongsun to open a bottle of red wine and white wine. The red wine was for Qin Ran and Qin Jing, and the white wine was for him and Gongsun. Qin Ran and Qin Jing looked at each other. Qin Ran could not help but ask, "Dad, what's wrong with you today? Is there anything wrong? Why do you suddenly want to cook and ask us to drink with you? "
At this time, Qin Changan just sat down and was pouring wine for Gongsun. He smiled and said, "Nothing. I just want to drink. There is no one else but you two girls to accompany me. What's wrong? You don't want to accompany an old man like me?"
Qin Ran hurriedly replied, "No, no, no. We don't mean that. If you want to drink, we will accompany you."
There was no one else in the dining room. Qin Changan did not ask the servants to wait on them by the side. It was just the four of them chatting and drinking happily. The atmosphere during this period was too oppressive. Now, they could finally relax completely. Everything that should be arranged had been arranged. Then, they should enjoy the last bit of warmth.
Qin Jing muttered in a low voice, "Sigh. If Mom and Brother were here, our family would be complete. If Brother brought Sister-in-law, it would be even better."
During this period, Zhao Anzhi had been in Shenzhen all the time. Sometimes, she went to Hong Kong. It seemed that she was busier than Qin Changan. After all, Qin Changan had arranged an important matter for her. It would be difficult for her to come back in a short time. After all, the Qin Family's own people were needed in Shenzhen. In this way, Qin Changan's pressure in Beijing would be less.
As for Qin Sheng, Qin Changan did not have any thoughts about it. He had cut the Gordian knot in Shanghai quickly. Therefore, apart from those trivial matters, Qin Sheng had nothing important to worry about in Shanghai. In the future, he would not have any worries. In fact, when he had asked Qin Sheng to go to Shanghai in the beginning, apart from letting Qin Sheng solve his previous matters, it was more for the relationship between Qin Sheng and the Zhu Family. As for the reorganization of the company in Shanghai, Qin Changan had never cared about it. He did not ask about it at all, because it was too insignificant.
Finally, there was Lin Su, whom Yaya had mentioned. This was also something that gave Qin Changan a headache. Logically speaking, since Lin Su had done so much, as her future father-in-law, he should have met her earlier. However, because of the Qin Family's current situation, Qin Changan had not met her. It was not that he was dissatisfied with Lin Su. On the contrary, he was very satisfied with what Lin Su had done. If these things had not happened, he might have married Qin Sheng and Lin Su this year. In this way, the Qin Family could have a son earlier.
It was a pity that this thing happened.
Qin Changan was very clear that once he fell, it would be very difficult for Qin Sheng to support the Qin Family, which was a big ship. Qin Sheng needed enough external forces to push forward, such as the Zhu Family's attitude, the backup arranged by his grandfather, and especially the engagement with the Song Family.
If it had not been for Lin Su, Qin Changan would definitely have mentioned this thing after Qin Sheng came back. Because the Song Family's background was very important to the Qin Family and Qin Sheng in the future. Not to mention Old Master Song's status, Song Ruyu alone was enough for Qin Changan to think of ways to marry Qin Sheng, not to mention the engagement with the Song Family.
Now, Qin Changan did not want to put pressure on Qin Sheng. After Qin Sheng faced the pressure himself, Qin Changan would wait for him to make a choice. Because at that time, the Song Family would be a node that no one could avoid. It all depended on Qin Sheng's decision.
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. If they don't come back, we won't have dinner." After coming to his senses, Qin Changan said with a smile. Today, Qin Changan was so amiable and approachable, without any arrogance. He was just an ordinary uncle next door.
Smiling, Qin Jing picked up a piece of pork ribs for Qin Changan and said, "Uncle, you are right."
All of a sudden, Qin Changan asked with interest, "Yaya, you are not young anymore. Is it time for you to fall in love? Is there anyone chasing you? Whether it is your colleagues in the company or your friends in real life, they are all fine. Let me check them out for you."
Hearing his uncle's teasing, Qin Jing blushed and said, "Uncle, I am still young. I am not in a hurry to fall in love. Do you want me to get married earlier?"
"What do you think? I am afraid that you will learn from your sister. I have prepared this dowry for more than 30 years, but your sister just does not give me a chance. What do you think I should do?" After teasing Qin Jing, Qin Changan made fun of Qin Ran. He did not have any requirements for this daughter, as long as she liked this man. Even if she was a beggar on the street, he would not say no. Anyway, what the Qin Family did not lack was money. Even if it was Ah Dou, he could help him up.
Hearing this, Qin Ran said helplessly, "Dad, you are bringing up the past again. I know about my situation. Don't worry."
Qin Changan suddenly sighed and said, "How can I not worry? I am already so old. The grandchildren of my friends of the same age are already in primary school and junior high school. I am still the same. Don't you think so? "
"Dad …" Qin Ran said somewhat embarrassedly.
Qin Changan continued, "Ran Ran, in the past, you said that you would not get married until you found your brother. I could understand you. Now that your brother is back, you should also consider marriage. After all, you are not young anymore. If you really do not want to get married, I will not urge you."
Qin Ran was lost in thought and did not know what to say. It seemed that she really needed to think about it. So she said, "Dad, I know."
Not knowing what to say, Qin Changan lowered his head and drank a glass of wine. He laughed at himself and said, "I am afraid that I will not be able to see it. I hope you can forgive me."
Qin Changan's voice was very low. Even Gongsun, who was sitting next to him, did not hear it. Qin Ran seemed to feel something and asked, "Dad, what did you say?"
Qin Changan smiled and shook his head. "Nothing. Let's eat. The dishes are getting cold. These are all my specialties. Come and have a taste."
For the rest of the time, the atmosphere of the dinner was more relaxed and casual. Qin Changan talked about the interesting things that happened to the children when they were young. He also talked about the past, which amused Qin Ran and Qin Jing. At this moment, he was just a simple father, without any status and without any pressure.
After finishing a bottle of wine, the dinner was also over. No one drank too much. It was just right. Qin Ran and Qin Jing had to go to work tomorrow, so they went back to their rooms early to rest. The two girls slept together tonight and whispered to each other.
Qin Changan did not rest. After dinner, he went into the study and sat alone in the study, smoking. When Gongsun came in, Qin Changan asked him to rest early. He did not need to accompany him. He just needed to be alone for a while. Gongsun sighed and left.
Qin Changan just sat in the study and smoked for the whole night. He thought about many things and many people. His life could be regarded as a legend. He didn't know how others would judge him. Anyway, he didn't care about it. Qin Changan sat in the study and smoked for the whole night.
After dawn, Qin Changan still did not walk out of the study. In the past, he would do morning exercises at this time and then go out after breakfast. He would go to the company or meet his friends. This was his rhythm of life, but not today.
When Qin Ran and Qin Jing got up and had breakfast, they were a little surprised that they did not see Qin Changan. Gongsun said that Qin Changan was still sleeping. However, he was too tired recently. Qin Ran and Qin Jing did not think much about it. After breakfast, they went to work.
In the study, Qin Changan squinted. No one knew whether he was thinking or sleeping. At this moment, the familiar phone rang. Qin Changan directly hung up and did not pick it up. The phone did not ring again.
At this moment, he walked out of the study slowly. He seemed to have aged a lot. His hair, which had originally been a little shocking, seemed to have turned white overnight. If Qin Ran and Qin Jing had seen this, they would have been heartbroken. Therefore, Qin Changan did not let them see it.
After taking a shower and changing into a clean set of foster father clothes, Qin Changan walked to the side hall on the second floor. The photos of his deceased parents and wife were hanging in the hall. Qin Changan burned three incense sticks for them and said with a smile, "I won't be able to accompany you in the future."
At this time, in the alley outside the Qin Family's siheyuan, seven or eight cars suddenly appeared. From the license plates, one could tell that they were not ordinary. In the end, these cars stopped at the gate of the Qin Family's siheyuan. The other cars surrounded the entire siheyuan. Several men and women got out of the cars. The leading ones looked quite old. They frowned and gave orders quickly. After that, they knocked on the gate of the Qin Family's siheyuan.
In the siheyuan, Qin Changan seemed to have heard the noise. When these people broke into the siheyuan, Qin Changan walked out slowly. He looked up at the sky and took a few deep breaths of fresh air. He was afraid that there would not be many opportunities like this in the future.
At this time, Qin Changan muttered to himself, "This life is over."
On this day, the storm of the Qin Family officially came to an end. Qin Changan was arrested, which shocked everyone instantly.
The storm was coming. The Qin Family was in danger. Who could turn the tide?
