Chapter 29 Not Possible (1/2)

Some old songs may require more mature singers who had been through much in life to express their essence. For example, when the song ”Looking Back”, was sung by a young singer, he would not be able to bring out its essence compared to if it were sung by an uncle. Just as it was suitable for Qin Sheng to sing ”More Beautiful than Spring” but not ”Looking Back”.

Looking back, the past was like a dream;

Looking back, my heart remained the same;

The endless road accompanied me...

Perhaps it would take another 20 to 30 years before Qin Sheng could understand the matters of heart.

Chang Baji had followed closely behind Qin Sheng as they left the bar. He thought to himself, if he were like Qin Sheng, he would not have to worry about not being able to find girls.

Unfortunately, not only was he not good looking, apart from knowing how to fight, he had no other notable skills and talents.

While Qin Sheng had left the bar, the woman on the second floor was still weeping. In fact, she was stunned when Qin Sheng appeared in the bar. All the more she could no longer contain her emotions by the time Qin Sheng finished singing the song.

She was the new boss of this bar who usually visited once in a few days at irregular timings. Some people knew she was once a resident singer in the bar who used to work part-time in her university days. Later on, when the boss of the bar migrated overseas, she took over the bar and business was as usual after that. Most of the employees here were undergraduates. While she had no desire to earn a living through running a bar, she did it for nostalgic reasons.

”What happened Su Qin?” the young and handsome bodyguard next to her asked. He was clueless as to why this woman, whom he pursued for over a year, was at this moment weeping. However, he could sense that it had to do with the man who sang the song a moment ago.

Su Qin, a woman who had left lots of memories in Qin Sheng's life, who was the only woman other than the women in the Lin family, who doted on Qin Sheng.

She wore waist-long black hair and was cladded in a flower print long skirt. Dangling from her neck was a necklace with an expensive-looking pendant. This jade pendant used to belong to Qin Sheng but he gave it to Su Qin on her 18th birthday. While Su Qin had given herself to Qin Sheng on his 18th birthday.

Su Qin eyes were big and dark and they had a certain calm about them. Su Qin wiped away her tears and said, ”Nothing, some bad memories just came to my mind.”

”Perhaps you are under too much pressure recently. Would you like to make time for some relaxation and take a trip somewhere to cheer up? I heard Palau is a great place, or how about Daxi?” The man extended the invitation to Su Qin. He was a new and upcoming star in the financial scene in Shanghai and it seemed that it was only a matter of time that Su Qin would accept his pursuit. It was a common belief that taking a tour together would help a couple get to know each other deeper. It was during the trip that the lady would start to want to rely on the man, and being alone with each other would solidify their relationship.

”I don't think so. We will talk about that next time,” Su Qin shook her head replied.

”Alright, we can go anywhere you like, when you find the time.” The man did not push it but smiled and behaved like a gentleman.

As Su Qin touched the jade pendant hanging on her neck and called to mind the memories, a smile appeared on her face, but she eventually said, ”It's getting late, I have to go home.”

”Let me arrange for the driver to send you home.” The man quickly got up.

”The wine could not be compared to you”... As Su Qin pondered over the lyrics of the Qin Sheng's song, she started to wonder if the ”you” in the lyrics was actually referring to her...

Outside the YOUNG bar, as Qin Sheng and Chang Baji were getting ready to walk away, the men in ambush were trying to inform their accomplice in the streets, saying, ”Fourth Brother, they are leaving. Let's prepare to strike.”

The people following Qin Sheng and Chang Baji had parked their car beside Qin Sheng's Mercedes, which was basically within a back alley. Qin Sheng had purposely parked his car there since it was easier to carry out their plans in a more secluded place. If their car was parked at a place with much traffic, even their enemies would hesitate to strike.

When Qin Sheng and Chang Baji were nearing the alley where their car was parked, there were already a few men following closely behind them. When Chang Baji glanced sideways at Qin Sheng, he saw an unfamiliar cold smile on his face, which was a total contrast with his usual mannerism.

Once they entered the alley, four men emerged from the back of it, five other men appeared and blocked the entrance to the alley simultaneously. Each of the four men at the back was holding a knife in his hand. What was fortunate was that they were not holding guns. This was after all Shanghai and possession of a gun was a big criminal offense.

”Brothers, you must have been mistaken?” Chang Baji greeted them with a smile, as he had been through much worse circumstances with gangsters et cetera.

The leader of the group was called Fourth Brother. He was Zhao Dongsheng's best thug for the reason that he was a skillful fighter. With a long knife in his hand, he drew near to them and said, ”No mistakes. We are looking for you two.”
