Chapter 314 That’ll Be Fine… (1/2)

Zhuang Zhou and Nan Gong didn’t fully understand Qin Changan’s arrangement. Maybe it was because Qin Changan was at a higher position, and he definitely thought in different ways. The only thing they could do now was do as Qin Changan asked.

Qin Sheng and others arrived at the gate of the west branch of the Public Security Bureau. Qin Sheng had contacted Xue Qingyan on the way, finding out the time that Chang Baji and his followers had left and telling Xue Qingyan that he had sent Lin Su back to Ningbo.

Xue Qingyan was kind of surprised by this news, but still showed her empathy toward Qin Sheng. It was obvious that Qin Sheng had made up his mind to leave, which made Xue Qingyan upset. But she still respected Qin Sheng’s decision. She had the ability to help Qin Sheng, but she was not sure how much she should do. If Qin Sheng stayed here and something happened to him during this time, she could never take that responsibility.

Temporary endurance and withdrawal were required to pave the way to a brighter future. Qin Sheng would be safe by leaving Hangzhou, the battleground. And she would take this time to think about how she could ask somebody for help.

At half-past 10, Chang Baji and his followers were finally released. They had been trapped for almost two days. Apart from Chang Baji, everybody looked tired. They had more or less gotten hurt and suffered in the Public Security Bureau.

Qin Sheng didn’t let his underlings drive to the gate, but walked there to welcome Chang Baji and the others. He walked in front of everybody and said with guilt, “I’m really sorry for making you all suffer.”

Qin Sheng looked at everybody—from Chang Baji, Hao Lei, Gu Qingyang, and Gu Xiaobo to Tang She. They really suffered a lot this time. Qin Sheng himself was also in a difficult situation now. If he became a big shot one day, he would never forget these people, who had followed him and suffered with him.

Hao Lei walked toward Qin Sheng and made a brother-like gesture. He said, “Don’t say sorry. It’s not our first time to be put in there. It’s not that bad. And we also recalled some old memories. Hahaha…”

Tang She laughed and said, “Brother Qin, it’s all right, not a big deal. At least we vented our anger that day.”

Since Qin Sheng was dressed decently, he was obviously not released on this day. Gu Xiaobo realized this and asked, “Brother Qin, when were you released?”

“Yesterday morning,” Qin Sheng answered honestly.

Gu Xiaobo got it, but still gazed at Qin Sheng suspiciously. But nobody knew what he was thinking about.

Gu Qingyang said nothing, but he still felt uncomfortable since it was his first time to be held in the Public Security Bureau. Although he didn’t suffer a lot in there, those policemen’s words had offended him.

“Let’s go. We can talk elsewhere,” Chang Baji said, looking at Qin Sheng. They both realized what the other one was worrying about since they knew the truth of this incident.

Qin Sheng and other people all got in the car. Qin Sheng had booked rooms for everybody in the Four Seasons Hotel, preparing clean clothes for them to take a shower and relax. Besides that, he had booked seats at the Golden Sand Hall restaurant. Qin Sheng held this feast to celebrate their getting out and to say goodbye to them.

In a private room of the Golden Sand Hall in the Four Seasons Hotel beside West Lake, Qin Sheng sat alone, smoking and waiting for others. He had ordered many dishes and two bottles of red wine for his guests. He was pleased to know Chang Baji, Hao Lei, and the rest. Though he was not a lucky dog, he had made a lot of good friends.

10 minutes later, Qin Sheng’s guests entered the room and took their seats. Chang Baji was sitting to the left of Qin Sheng and Hao Lei to the right. The others also took their seats one after another.

Then the waiters began to serve the dishes and pour wine for everyone.

“Thank you for your help with the matter of Yuerong Manor. I’m sorry for what you had suffered these days,” Qin Sheng looked at everyone and said slowly. “Among all of you, Hao Lei was the first one I got to know, Lao Chang the second, and Tang She the last. All of you have never disappointed me. You’re my real friends, so I will be straight and honest. Today, in addition to welcoming your return, I have something else to say.”

Everybody looked at each other and they all had no idea about what Qin Sheng was going to say.

“Apart from Lao Chang and Hao Lei, the rest of you might be wondering what happened in Yuerong Manor. You must be curious about what kind of enemy had such incredible power to design a trap for me and make us suffer so much.” Qin Sheng looked at the other three people, who had curious looks, and said, “It’s is a long story. Yan Chaozong was our enemy when we were in Shanghai. And he is exactly the reason why we left Shanghai for Hangzhou. We didn’t expect that he would even chase us here. As for Qu Huanxi, he had some conflicts with us before and he had resentment toward us. So he cooperated with Yan Chaozong to fight against us. Now, I totally have no room to talk with them.”

Gu Xiaobo squinted and said, “Brother Qin, what are you going to do then?”

“You all more or less know about the power of the Qu Family in Hangzhou, and even in the entire Zhejiang Province. The Yan Family took up roots in Shanghai. It power is not less than that of the Qu Family in Hangzhou. Besides, the Yan Family is from Ningbo and has influence in Zhejiang Province. Now, the two big families are cooperating to beat me down. Obviously, I have no chance in Hangzhou and all of you might also become their targets because of me,” Qin Sheng said directly.

Except for Chang Baji, everybody was astonished by the news.

“Are you going to leave Hangzhou?” Hao Lei asked surprisingly. He never expected that the thing had gone that far. Qin Sheng just developed his own business in Hangzhou, but now he had no choice but to leave.

Gu Xiaobo said with a disappointed look, “Brother Qin, is there no other way?”
