Among the three guardian families, the Zheng family had completely disappointed the Qin family. This meant that his grandfather was not omnipotent. In the future, Qin Sheng would definitely not contact the Zheng family again. As for whether he would settle the score with the Zheng family in the future, that was a matter for the future. At least for now, Qin Sheng could not care less.
Fortunately, the He Family did not disappoint the Qin Family again. Otherwise, Qin Sheng would really suspect his grandfather. At least the He Family's level was worthy of the so-called Guardian Families. The He Family did not go back on their word. Even though so many years had passed, even though Old Master Qin had passed away many years ago, the He Family still chose to fulfill their promise. This was the stability of a family.
However, Qin Sheng could not contact the last Guardian Family no matter how hard he tried. He did not know whether it was a coincidence or some other reason. Qin Sheng had casually picked the order and he had already contacted the first two, but there was no news about the last Guardian Family. This was a little strange.
Had this family declined, or had they forgotten about this matter or something? It was also possible that they, like the Zheng Family, did not intend to fulfill their original promise, so they did not pick up the call.
Due to the return of Chang Xinyi and Hao Mingyi and the unhappy departure of the board of directors, the atmosphere within the Chang 'an Faction became very awkward. Chang Xinyi and Hao Mingyi regained control of the power, which disrupted the previous arrangement of the Sixth Uncle, and the direct descendants of the Sixth Uncle, who were hostile to Chang Xinyi and Hao Mingyi, the whole Chang' an Faction had fallen into endless internal strife.
Chang Xinyi and Hao Mingyi were already preparing for the shareholders' meeting, but they were still trying to buy more time for the Qin family. In this way, the Qin family would have a chance to persuade the other families. If they couldn't get the support of the other families, the Qin family would be completely defeated at the shareholders' meeting.
However, Sixth Uncle probably wouldn't give the Qin family too many chances. When they were ready, they would put pressure on Chang Xinyi and Hao Mingyi. At that time, Chang Xinyi and Hao Mingyi wouldn't be able to stall for time. Everyone was racing against time.
Among the four major shareholders behind the Chang 'an Faction, Qin Sheng was in charge of the Yang family, which was also the most difficult one. However, Gongsun had some connections with the Yang family, so he took the initiative to accompany Qin Sheng to have a try. He had already contacted the Yang family, who did not refuse. Maybe because of these years' friendship, it would be too unsatisfactory if they didn't meet them. However, for Qin Sheng, it was already a good start. As for the result, it depended on their own efforts.
Zhao Anzhi went to the Zhang family, Qin Ran contacted the Shen family, and Chang Xinyi was in charge of the Dong family. They had already contacted them. Now, they would meet them. Next, the two sides would meet. Anyway, as long as they won these families, the Family, the Qin and the Qin could do it, the Family would.
Gongsun told Qin Sheng that the Yang family would meet the day after tomorrow. Although it was a little late, Qin Sheng could only wait. The only thing he worried about was that Sixth Uncle would be one step ahead of them. In that case, their efforts would be in vain.
During this time, Qin Sheng visited the Song family again and asked Gongsun to make an appointment in advance. This time, Old Master Song did not refuse and asked him to go there in the afternoon, which surprised Qin Sheng. He didn't have much hope. After all, after the Qin family had an accident, the Song family directly drew a line with them. Qin Sheng still remembered the rejection at that time.
Nobody knew who leaked the news. When Song Hesheng heard that Qin Sheng was coming again, he waited for Qin Sheng in advance. It seemed that he wanted to fight with Qin Sheng to the death. Nobody knew what kind of enmity Song Hesheng had with Qin Sheng for him to stare at Qin Sheng so fixedly.
As soon as Qin Sheng entered the gate of the Song family with Chang Baji, he saw Song Hesheng drinking tea leisurely in the yard. Obviously, he was waiting for Qin Sheng. Qin Sheng felt a headache when he saw Song Hesheng. He knew that Song Hesheng always had a problem with him. These few times they met, there was a strong smell of gunpowder.
Song Hesheng stood up slowly and said to the housekeeper of the Song family, "Uncle Lan, I want to talk to Qin Sheng for a while. You can take Qin Sheng there later." He dared not drive Qin Sheng away. After all, his grandfather had agreed to meet him, so he did not dare to act recklessly.
The man called Uncle Lan nodded silently and did not say anything. As long as he did not mess things up, he still had to give face to Song Hesheng, the favored son of the Song family. Everyone thought that Song Hesheng would go far in the future.
This time, Song Hesheng did not lose his temper. On the contrary, he walked to Qin Sheng politely and said with a smile, "Qin Sheng, let's talk for a while."
The First Young Master of the Song family took the initiative to ask. Qin Sheng did not dare to say no. He looked back at Chang Baji and signaled him to wait here. At least there would be no danger here. Chang Baji nodded silently and agreed.
There were many people here. Song Hesheng took Qin Sheng to a quiet place in the side yard. After finding a chair and sitting down, he said, "Why do you have to go through so much trouble?"
Qin Sheng asked curiously, "Brother Song, what do you mean? I don't understand."
Song Hesheng said with interest, "What? Are you still pretending in front of me? Is it necessary? Don't you know what I mean? The result of some things has already been decided. It is not something that a small character like you can change. Do you know what you are doing? They say that you are an ant trying to shake a tree. Even they praise you. "
Qin Sheng said disdainfully, "Brother Song, if you want to continue to humiliate me, I don't think it is necessary. Because it is useless to me. It will also make me look down on you. It turns out that the famous Song Hesheng is like this."
Hearing this, Song Hesheng subconsciously wanted to get angry. However, he thought it was meaningless. He calmed down and said, "I don't have the time to humiliate you. I just want to advise you to make a choice that you already know. If you go on like this, the Qin family will only get worse."
Qin Sheng said firmly, "What if I insist?"
"Then your Qin Family will lose even this last bit of leftovers. You can ignore it, but what about your sister, your sister and the others? If you have some brains, you will know how to compromise to preserve your strength. In this way, you will live a happy and stable life for the rest of your life. However, if you continue to do this, the final result will be the destruction of your family. "Song Hesheng's tone was very tough. It seemed that he had always been like this in front of Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Brother Song, let me ask you something. If something happened to the Song family now, if you were me, what would you do?"
It seemed that Song Hesheng did not think about this question. It was impossible for the Song family to be in trouble. The elders had basically been in the Qingshui yamen these years. There were no juniors in the family who did business. Even if they really wanted to do something, there was still his grandfather watching over them. He might break their legs.
Besides, as long as his grandfather could live one more day, no one would dare to touch the Song family. His grandfather was the Song family's stabilizing force.
When Song Hesheng hesitated, Qin Sheng already had an answer. He smiled and said, "I think you will be the same as me."
At this time, Song Hesheng came to his senses. He was a little unhappy that Qin Sheng had taken the lead. He laughed and said, "No, I am different from you. I will weigh the pros and cons before making a choice. I will not make an unnecessary struggle. As long as there is life, there is hope."
Hearing this answer, Qin Sheng shook his head and said, "Oh, it seems that we are not different people."
Song Hesheng looked directly at Qin Sheng and said, "We are not the same people."
"Then there is nothing to talk about." After saying this, Qin Sheng stood up and was ready to leave.
At this time, Song Hesheng said loudly, "Qin Sheng, I know why you came to the Song family. Don't worry. Grandpa will not help the Qin family. This is the path that the Qin family has chosen. In the end, the Qin family has to bear the final result."
Qin Sheng stopped and wanted to refute a few words. However, he felt that it was unnecessary. Song Hesheng's opinion of him was too strong. They were destined not to be friends. So Qin Sheng continued to walk forward.
At this time, Song Hesheng said again, "And remember what I said. Stay away from my sister. Don't have any ideas about her. Otherwise, I will not spare you."
Song Hesheng had the confidence to say such words. His life was destined to be high. After Qin Changan fell, what did the Qin family have? Could they continue to rely on Qin Sheng? This was a joke. In another ten or twenty years, what would Qin Sheng be in his eyes at that time? At that time, it would be a piece of cake for him to deal with Qin Sheng. Maybe by that time, the Qin family would have already disappeared.
Qin Sheng stopped again and turned around thoughtfully to stare at Song Hesheng. Why did Song Hesheng say this every time? It seemed that he and Song Ruyu were just friends. Qin Sheng laughed at himself and did not want to say anything more to Song Hesheng. He walked to the front yard again.
In the yard, Uncle Lan, who was in charge of the Song family, was still waiting for Qin Sheng. When Qin Sheng came back, he took Qin Sheng to the backyard again, where Old Master Song was waiting.
Soon, Qin Sheng was taken to the backyard. Old Master Song was sitting in a cane chair under a tree in the backyard, listening to the radio. There were medical staff beside him. He saw Qin Sheng from afar, and then smiled kindly and waved at Qin Sheng to come over.
Uncle Lan stopped and motioned for the medical staff to leave first. Qin Sheng walked over slowly. When he got close, he called out, "Grandpa Song."
Old Master Song greeted him, "Qin Sheng, sit down, sit down."
Although Old Master Song seemed to be very serious on TV, he was usually very kind. He looked at Qin Sheng with a smile and said, "I've suffered a lot. But I'm much more energetic than when I just came back." Qin Sheng nodded.
Qin Sheng did not know what Old Master Song meant by "much more energetic". It should be that he had become more mature after experiencing so much.
Qin Sheng did not want Old Master Song to think that he was here to ask for help, so he said directly, "Grandpa Song, I'm here today to see you, nothing else. When I was in Shanghai some time ago, my grandma asked about you and asked me to come back and say hello to you."
"Hahaha, it's been a few days since I last talked to your grandma on the phone. I don't know how she is now. I heard from others that she was in the hospital half a year ago. If I had not been too old to walk, I might have gone to Shanghai to see her," Old Master Song said in a trembling voice. He had to take a break after a few words, because he was old.
Qin Sheng quickly said, "Grandpa Song, grandma must know. If she is better, she will definitely come back to Beijing to see you."
"We are all old. I really envy you children," Old Master Song sighed.
Qin Sheng replied with a smile, "Grandpa, you are also young. It will not be a problem for you to live for another ten or twenty years."
"You child," Old Master Song said happily.
Qin Sheng did not have other advantages, but he was sweet in front of the elders, and it was easy to make them happy. But it also depended on who he was talking to.
Old Master Song did not wait for Qin Sheng to continue and asked directly, "It's not easy during this period, right?" Old Master Song did not wait for Qin Sheng to continue and asked directly. Old Master Song was not in good health, so he was not willing to say more.
Qin Sheng said honestly, "These are what I should experience and bear."
Old Master Song nodded silently and said, "How is your father?"
"I just saw him a few days ago. He is fine," Qin Sheng could only say so.
Old Master Song sighed and said, "In those days, if he had listened to me, he would not have ended up like this. If he had listened to me three years ago, he would have stopped at the brink of the cliff. But at that time, he was too glorious, how could he listen to me?"
Qin Sheng remained silent. The three years ago that the Old Master mentioned was definitely the time when the Old Master and the Chang 'an School were at their peak. At that time, the Chang' an School was so prominent. Whether it was at home or abroad, the Chang 'an School was crazy about acquisitions. It seemed that the Chang' an School would never run out of resources. Not to mention the time when the Chang 'an School was at its peak in terms of politics.
It seemed that since then, the Chang 'an School suddenly fell into a crisis and finally came to this day.
After a while, Qin Sheng said, "Grandpa Song, apart from visiting you today, there is one more thing I want to ask you. You can rest assured that I am not asking for your help. I just want to ask you a question."
"What question?" Old Master Song had never seen a young man who dared to be so confident in front of him. Maybe it was out of curiosity, he asked.
Qin Sheng gritted his teeth and asked, "What's the worst result for my father? Will he die?"
This was the most uncertain thing in Qin Sheng's mind. Although he had heard many people talking about it, everyone was just guessing in their hearts. They dared not give him an absolute guarantee, because they did not know what was going on. But he believed that Old Master Song had the ability to know. A few days ago, when Qin Sheng called his Big Uncle Qin Changxing to ask about the news of the third guardian family, he mentioned this matter. His Big Uncle told him that the one closest to the center of power was Old Master Song. Because of the relationship between the Qin Family and the Song Family, he had to ask Old Master Song about some things. That was why Qin Sheng dared to ask this question.
In fact, if he really wanted to know, Qin Changxing could know it himself. But he would not make that choice, because that was the last guarantee of the Qin Family.
Old Master Song pondered for a long time. Qin Sheng was also waiting anxiously. Every minute and second could be a torture. He was afraid to hear the worst result, because no matter from the official side or from the enemy side, the Qin Family was under great pressure. It could be imagined what Old Master Song was shouldering.
After a long time, Old Master Song said tiredly, "I don't think so."
