The Qin Family had been rooted in Sijiu City for several generations. However, it seemed that every 20 years, the Qin Family would face a calamity. No one knew whether it was a coincidence or fate. The Old Master had experienced it twice in the past. Now, Qin Changan was also going through it for the second time. As for Qin Sheng, it was his first time. Every time, the Qin Family would pay a heavy price. However, they could get through it quietly every time. Every time, the Qin Family would stand up again.
Zhao Anzhi was born into a wealthy family. She absolutely worshipped Qin Changxing when he was young. At that time, Qin Changxing was high-spirited and was considered one of the best among the younger generation in Sijiu City. It was just that he was not as famous as Sixth Uncle. After all, Sixth Uncle's family background determined his starting point.
Old Master Zhao also admired Qin Changxing's talent, so he agreed to this marriage. Although Old Master Qin had a wide network in Sijiu City back then, most people didn't think that this was a good match. However, who asked Zhao Anzhi to like him?
After getting married, Qin Changxing did not disappoint Zhao Anzhi. After he entered the official career, he showed his strong ability, which made many old leaders admire him. Moreover, in that special era, outstanding young people were always put in important positions, and Qin Changxing was one of them.
Just like that, Qin Changxing walked further and further on his path. More and more people placed their bets on Qin Changxing. They felt that Qin Changxing would one day stand at a high enough position. Just like that, it lasted until that storm.
The storm was huge and involved many people. The Qin Family was not just one of them. However, the Qin Family was targeted. Everyone knew the final result. Qin Changxing had chosen a path that no one had expected. From then on, Qin Changxing had completely disappointed Zhao Anzhi.
So many years had passed, and Zhao Anzhi didn't want to care about their grudges anymore. The Qin Family was once again in trouble, and as a man of the Qin Family, Zhao Anzhi felt that Qin Changxing had to stand up. This was because he was also a man of the Qin Family, and he couldn't just watch the Qin Family fall into the abyss.
If Qin Changxing still chose to be a coward, Zhao Anzhi would be completely disappointed. After this disappointment, there would be despair. Then, once the Qin Family's matter was settled, Zhao Anzhi would choose to leave the country with her daughter and never come back.
She dialed the number without any emotional fluctuations. Even if Qin Changxing did not pick up the phone, Zhao Anzhi no longer had any psychological burden. After all, she had already prepared herself for the worst.
Fortunately, Qin Changxing did not disappoint her. Not long after, Qin Changxing picked up the phone. Although the two had been separated for so long, they were still familiar with each other. Without any pleasantries, Zhao Anzhi asked directly, "How long is this coward going to stop?"
Qin Changxing shook his head and smiled bitterly as he said, "I already know what happened in Chang 'an."
"Understood? And then? Did he only know? You are a man of the Qin Family. Everyone in the Qin Family is working hard for the Qin Family. What are you doing? Are you just going to watch people bully us orphans and widows? Doesn't your conscience hurt? " The calmer Qin Changxing was, the more excited Zhao Anzhi was. She was just a woman. Although she had made some friends in Sijiu City, so many years had passed. Would they help her? Moreover, her maiden family had long lost their power. If her old father was still alive or her older brother was powerful, would she need to be so humble? Who was she doing this for? It was all for the Qin Family. As for Qin Sheng and Qin Ran, the Zhu Family had already said that they would not help them. How capable could these two children be? Seeing them so tired and mentally exhausted every day, how could Zhao Anzhi not feel sorry for them?
Qin Changxing was calm. No one would make him feel anything. He waited until Zhao Anzhi finished speaking before replying, "Anzhi, wait a little longer. It's not time yet."
"Not time yet? When is it?" Zhao Anzhi roared.
Qin Changxing said faintly, "When it's time, I will naturally go back."
"I think you just want to be a coward. Are you going to wait until everything is settled before you come back? What can we do when the time comes? Qin Changxing, let me tell you, after this, I will take Yaya back to Canada. Don't even think about seeing her in this life, "Zhao Anzhi threatened angrily.
Qin Changxing did not know how to explain to Zhao Anzhi. Should he say that he was ready, but it was not time yet? There were some things that Zhao Anzhi did not understand.
"Give me some time." Qin Changxing could only say so.
When Zhao Anzhi heard this, she did not get angry. Instead, she laughed and said, "Give you some time? I gave you more than 20 years. What did you give me in return? Do you know? The thing that I regret the most in my life is choosing you. "
"Anzhi," Qin Changxing said helplessly.
Zhao Anzhi let out a long sigh and said, "Forget it, I won't say anything. Maybe it was a mistake for me to come back. This is your Qin family's matter. What does it have to do with me? Qin Changxing, this is the last time I call you. Let's stop here for the rest of our lives. Goodbye. "
After saying the last sentence, Zhao Anzhi hung up the phone completely. Qin Changxing wanted to say a few more words, but there was only a busy tone coming from the phone.
After Zhao Anzhi hung up the phone, she sat on the sofa and covered her face with tears. She was under too much pressure. She did not do these things for others to see. She just did not want to let these children down. After all, she was the only one they could rely on now. Qin Sheng stood outside the study for a long time, but he did not have the courage to knock on the door.
Outside the study, Qin Sheng stood for a long time, but he did not have the courage to knock on the door. He heard the angry voice of the aunt and heard her sobbing. He suddenly felt that he was very useless. He had done a lot of things, but it was useless. This really made him feel very frustrated.
Qin Sheng did not have the courage to go in, nor did he know how to comfort the aunt. He turned around and left with an ugly face. The only thing he could do was to calm himself down.
When Qin Sheng walked to the staircase, his sister came back. He stopped and did not go downstairs immediately. He saw his sister sitting down and leaning on the sofa, looking very tired. This really made Qin Sheng's heart ache.
He wanted to escape, but he did not know how. In the end, he could only bite the bullet and walk down. When he was about to reach his sister, he said in a low voice, "Sister, you're back."
Hearing Qin Sheng's voice, Qin Ran immediately returned to normal. She quickly got up and said with a smile, "I thought you were not back yet."
The Qin Ran at this moment was completely different from the Qin Ran just now. The Qin Ran just now was the real Qin Ran, and the Qin Ran at this moment was just the Qin Ran that Qin Ran wanted Qin Sheng to see. Life was very tiring, and he relied on acting, acting for himself and acting for others.
He especially noticed that his sister's eyes seemed to be swollen. Why? It could only be because she was crying like this. This impact made Qin Sheng confused again. He did not want to stay here, not even for a second. He quickly said, "Sister, I'm going out to buy some supper. What do you want to eat?"
"Supper? Ask the kitchen to make whatever you want to eat. Why are you going out so late? "Qin Ran was a little confused.
Qin Sheng smiled and said, "I don't want to bother them. I can go out to buy some. I can go out to get some fresh air."
Qin Ran did not think much about it. She replied, "Then go. Remember to come back early. I don't want anything. How about losing weight these days?"
If it was in the past, Qin Sheng might still make a few jokes with his sister, or feel distressed about losing weight. But today, Qin Sheng was not in any mood. He just nodded and left.
As soon as Qin Sheng walked out of the villa, Qin Ran fell on the sofa again. She was like a deflated balloon, without any power.
Qin Ran did not know what to say. She had tried her best, and Ma Weiyang had also helped her the last time. Although she had met Ma Weiyang's father, the result was not very satisfactory. Fortunately, Ma Weiyang had been by her side to help her. In addition, she had really broken down at that time. Ma Weiyang's father had promised to ask about this matter. But he would only ask, and he would not interfere.
Even so, Qin Ran was already satisfied.
…
At the Marriott Hotel at the foot of Mount Wutai.
Qin Changxing stood on the balcony and looked at the endless Mount Wutai, lost in thought. This was the place he had stayed in for more than 20 years. It was very familiar but also very strange. A few days ago, he did not live in the temple anymore. He had also said goodbye to everyone in the temple. The big monk, who was like a brother and a master, smiled and nodded to him, saying that it was as he expected.
As for the meaning behind this, Qin Changxing could understand. Just as the old monk had said, his ties with the mortal world had not been severed. He did not belong here and would leave sooner or later. In the past, Qin Changxing did not believe it, but now, he had to believe it.
Qin Changxing did not wear the monk's robe anymore. He wore very casual ordinary clothes. When he put on such clothes again, Qin Changxing felt a little strange. He was not used to himself in the mirror, but he knew that it was himself.
He had chosen to leave the mountain. He had no choice but to do so. If he still did not leave the mountain, he would be sorry to the ancestors of the Qin Family. He would really be alone in the future.
However, Qin Changxing still wanted to wait a little longer. He already knew everything and was deducing everything. He felt that the Qin Family's affairs were not so simple. Everything could not be seen only from one side. He did not think that this matter was only aimed at the Qin Family. These years, the Qin Family was indeed very prosperous under the management of his younger brother, Qin Changan. However, the Qin Family was not qualified to be treated like this.
In the past two days, he had studied a lot of things in the past few years in the Marriott Hotel. There were a few families who had been treated similarly to the Qin Family. Which family had not been prosperous in the past few years? They had always been successful in conquering the domestic market. In the foreign market, they were like local tycoons who were not short of money. They were just buying, buying, buying. The final result was that they were in debt, and there were internal and external troubles.
However, the difference between the Qin Family and the other families was that the Qin Family's affairs were too complicated. It involved many aspects and many people. How could it be so simple?
Therefore, Qin Changxing did not think that this matter was aimed at the Qin Family. He wanted to wait and see. What should happen had not happened yet. Therefore, he was not willing to be anxious.
Moreover, he had an even deeper doubt, and that was that his younger brother was not as simple as he seemed. He also seemed to be waiting for something. Everyone wanted to kill him, but he did not reveal too many things about others, which was even more thought-provoking.
Considering all the circumstances, Qin Changxing could only think that the final moment of this drama had not arrived yet. He still needed to wait and wait. His younger brother, Qin Changan, was waiting. He was also waiting now.
