Chapter 283 Something Happened (1/2)
Yang Deng wanted to let Qin Sheng into this circle. However, Third Master Wu didn’t want him to do it. Qin Sheng was not an ordinary person. Third Master Wu could tell based on the things he did in Shanghai. Plus, he could stay in Hangzhou for a short time. This man wanted an important position in this circle, yet everyone’s position was fixed. If Qin Sheng wanted to get a position, that meant that someone would need to give up theirs. This was a difficult situation.
That was why Third Master Wu didn’t invite Qin Sheng, though he didn’t know that Qin Sheng would not say yes. Thus, this issue had come to an end. Because of the painting and the calligraphy piece, as well as the good words of Yang Deng and Luo Changgong, Third Master Wu had promised to do one thing for Qin Sheng that was within his ability. Coming from Third Master Wu, this was a great favor. Qin Sheng wouldn’t use it unless he had no choice.
When Qin Sheng walked out of the study, Yang Deng ran to him and said eagerly, “How did your conversation with the old master go?”
“Not bad. It is obvious that the old master likes the painting very much. He would pay me a lot of money to buy it if I could finish the second half,” Qin Sheng said with a smile on his face.
Yang Deng was curious. “Anything else?”
“We just talked about things in Shanghai, you know that. We didn’t talk about anything else,” Qin Sheng said.
Yang Deng was stunned. “Nothing else? He didn’t tell you whether he was willing to let you into this circle?”
Qin Sheng didn’t know anything, yet when Yang Deng said this, he suddenly realized the truth and got lost deep in thought. It was obvious that Yang Deng had introduced him to the old master, but the old master hadn’t said so. What did he mean?
Qin Sheng shook his head when he came back to earth. “No, but the old master promised me one thing. I can ask him for a favor whenever I need one, as long as this favor is within his ability.”
Yang Deng sighed with helpless emotion. It seemed that this path had been blocked.
“I’m ready to go back to Hangzhou. What about you?” Qin Sheng was a little upset and confused, but he didn’t know why. Thus, he just changed the topic.
Yang Deng lowered his head and said in a low voice, “You wait for me in the car. I will say hello to the old master and then we’ll go back to Hangzhou.”
Yang Deng was a person who took friendship and promises seriously. Qin Sheng had come to Putuo Mountain with him, so he definitely would not let Qin Sheng get into trouble in Ningbo. He would stop the Lin family if they really wanted to hurt Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng said hello to the people in the yard and then walked out. He encountered Luo Changgong while he was walking out of the door. Luo Changgong had just come back, so they chatted a little. Luo Changgong would definitely tease him.
On the other side, Lin Ze had suffered many losses in Landison Resort. Therefore, he left with Fu Bo angrily. When he walked out, he called Lin Changhe and said that Qin Sheng had refused to see him and rejected him directly. He wanted to ask Fu Bo to take Qin Sheng away. Although they’d fought with each other, Third Master Wu’s people had stopped them and stood by Qin Sheng.
Of course, Lin Changhe knew what Lin Changting meant. They had a tacit understanding, as they had been brothers for many years. Thus, when Lin Changhe heard Lin Ze’s words, he was annoyed. This nephew was really a piece of trash, but he couldn’t blame Lin Ze for this. He had told him to invite Qin Sheng here, not drag him here. This stupid guy had even used violence at Third Master Wu’s birthday party. Did he like to play with fire?
Lin Changhe just sighed. It seemed that Qin Sheng was a taboo subject for him. After all, he had nearly been killed by Yan Chaozong, so he felt some resentment and suspicion for the Lin family.
“What should we do, uncle? Do we need to find someone to make him leave Putuo Mountain?” Lin Ze asked.
Lin Changhe was angry with Lin Ze. Why hadn’t he tried to think about it? Third Master Wu had known all about this. If he really beat Qin Sheng, Third Master Wu would definitely get angry with him. After all, Qin Sheng had come to celebrate Third Master Wu’s birthday.
Lin Changhe held back his anger and said in a low voice, “That’s fine. Just stay away from this affair. I will try to figure it out. You come back.”
“We’ll just let it go, uncle?” Lin Ze was astonished. This was not the Lin family’s style. Why would they worry about tackling Qin Sheng?
Lin Changhe, who did not want to talk to him anymore, said he was busy and then hung up the phone. He had no idea what the Lin family would be like if Lin Ze took over the Lin family’s business. If he was as excellent as his nephew, Lin Songhao, he would not worry so much.
Lin Ze still had no idea what was going on when he hung up the phone. He could not figure it out so he stopped thinking about it. He turned his anger to Fu Bo and said, “What’s wrong with you? You can’t even beat him down?”
Fu Bo, who had no idea, just said, “Young Master, he is fierce. He is different from the person he used to be when he was in our home.”
“Really?” Lin Ze mumbled. Of course he believed Fu Bo’s words. It seemed that he’d have to take more people when he met Qin Sheng next time. He didn’t want to be beaten twice.
Qin Sheng waited in his car for more than ten minutes. Then, Yang Deng came back and told him to go. They immediately moved to Hangzhou.
Yuan Ke, Qu Huanxi, and the Dugu siblings arrived half an hour earlier than them at Hangzhou. Different people were thinking about different things. Qu Huanxi called Yan Chaozong when he got into the car, while Yan Chaozong had left Hangzhou to go to Shanghai.
“Your love rival created a buzz today. He’s really well-known.” Qu Huanxi sneered.
Yan Chaozong scorned. “Ordinary people all want to create a buzz. Skillful people choose to play it down, as they are confident enough.”
“In my opinion, Hangzhou will not allow such a high-profile person to exist. I really want to know what he looks like when he is crying,” Qu Huanxi said triumphantly.
