Chapter 302 What the Hell? (2/2)
Qu Huanxi got up and went to meet Yan Chaozong. They’ve made an all-round plan, waiting for the protagonist and audience today to come and get ready. All other chores were handled by Qu Huanxi’s underlings.
The next day, all the people in this field in Hangzhou received the invitation from Qu Huanxi and Yan Chaozong. It told them the time, 12 o’clock, and the place, Yuerong Manor in Xixi, but with no description for what would be going on. This was exactly what Yan Chaozong had informed Qin Sheng of.
It was obvious.
Old Monk and his underlings would definitely come. Some guests, including Boss Hu, Luo Changgong, Yang Deng, and the Dugus were invited by Yuan Ke and others. After all, Qu Huanxi was not influential enough. Besides, Yan Chaozong also invited his guests.
The people invited by Yan Chaozong were all confused by this, wondering what Yan Chaozong was planning. Some might think that the Yan family was going to increase their investment in Hangzhou. While Qu Huanxi’s guests suspected that Old Monk would take some big action. Soon after, Hangzhou became turbulent and all those people were expecting what would happen the next day.
Third Master Wu and several big shots at the same level as Luo Changgong received the invitation and talked about it. Some of them were willing to go, but others were not. They thought the meeting was for declaring the successor of Old Monk, and it was none of their business.
In the evening, when Yang Deng was having dinner at Luo Changgong’s home, he casually asked, “What the hell do you think Old Monk is doing? Since they had taken such a big action.”
“No idea. We’ll know when we arrive there. Now that we’re free tomorrow, why not go and have a look?” Luo Changgong said at will while drinking wine.
Yang Deng wanted to ask Qin Sheng to go along with him, but he didn’t for fear of disturbing Qin Sheng, who was occupied with various businesses recently. Of course, he didn’t imagine that Qin Sheng was the protagonist of this show.
Yang Deng nodded and said, “Well, let’s see what they can do to entertain us.”
At the same time, Lin Changhe also received a call from Yan Chaozong, saying that the Yan family was holding a luncheon at Yuerong Manor in Xixi and the guests were all family members that were close to the Yan family and their partners, so Lin Changhe should not be absent from this occasion. Lin Changhe felt it a little weird, but still accepted the invitation.
Qin Sheng had no idea of what was going on outside of his house, where he stayed the whole day. He didn’t go anywhere, but just read in his study. Only books could make him calm when other things annoyed him. Reading was beneficial anyway. With the long passage of history, all those wise men had written their experiences and opinions into books for future generations to study and then practice.
Chang Baji didn’t go to meet Boss Hu. He had arranged all the things for tomorrow, and his men would be divided into two groups—one would track Yan Chaozong at Amanfayun and the other would follow him to protect Qin Sheng.
Chang Baji heard that something was happening around Old Monk, but he didn’t ask further because he thought it was none of Qin Sheng’s business. After all, he knew nothing about the relationship between Yan Chaozong and Qu Huanxi.
On the third day, it was time. Chang Baji arrived at the Golden Coast at about eight o’clock. Qin Sheng was waiting for Yan Chaozong’s call at home.
At 11 o’clock, at the same time, Qin Sheng received the call from Yan Chaozong, saying that his men had reached the gate of the Golden Coast and asking Qin Sheng to go. Chang Baji received the call from Hao Lei, who was at Amanfayun, saying that Yan Chaozong had left.
Lin Su had already gone to work in the morning, and Qin Sheng was at home alone. He hung up the phone and just left.
Qin Sheng went downstairs and saw Chang Baji, along with Gu Qingyang, Gu Xiaobo, and others. Chang Baji whispered, “Yan Chaozong has left.”
Qin Sheng thought for a second and said, “I know. He called me.”
Qin Sheng and his men stepped out and saw two Audi A6Ls parked beside the gate. Five or six men wearing black suits got out of the car and said to Qin Sheng politely, “Mr. Qin, Master Yan asked us to pick you up. Let’s go.”
Gu Xiaobo was worried and said, “Brother Qin…”
Qin Sheng waved his hand and said, “You guys just follow behind.”
After that, Qin Sheng got in the car. Chang Baji, Gu Qingyang, Gu Xiaobo, and others got in two other cars, closely following behind.
No conflicts.
At this moment, at a crossroad with a traffic light, the two Audi A6Ls suddenly sped up and went at the red light. Chang Baji then realized that things were getting worse. He didn’t hesitate and said, “Follow them!”
