Chapter 317 Jump the Gun (1/2)

People always feel sorrowful at times of saying goodbye. When they meet each other again after a long time, they feel happy. All these things, including life, death, love, and hate, make up everybody’s life. If life was as boring as still water, it would be meaningless.

Outside the entrance of the Hunan Cuisine Restaurant, Qin Sheng, Ms. An, Yu Fengzhi, and Lyu Yuan stood in the parking lot. After they said goodbye to each other this time, it was unknown when they could meet each other again. Back when they had parted with each other in Shanghai at that time, it was not until nine months later that they reunited. However, at that time, Qin Sheng had left without even saying goodbye. This time, he took the initiative to say goodbye to them.

Ms. An took the initiative to hug Qin Sheng and say, “Take care.”

Qin Sheng nodded quietly. Lyu Yuan patted Qin Sheng’s shoulder gently and said goodbye to him. Upon thinking of how immature Qin Sheng had been when he had just entered Shangshan Ruoshui, he felt a bit emotional. At that time, he had been somewhat unwilling to submit himself to Qin Sheng. It was not until today that he finally understood that his life was not the same as Qin Sheng’s.

Yu Fengzhi was the last one to say goodbye to Qin Sheng. At this moment, her feelings were complex. She held Qin Sheng tightly and was not willing to part with him in this way, fearing that she would not be able to see Qin Sheng again.

Qin Sheng patted her shoulder gently and teased her on purpose as he said, “Don’t be so sentimental. After all, I have not been diagnosed with an incurable disease yet.”

Yu Fengzhi smiled in a cute manner as she said, “You are still in a mood to make fun of me at a time like this. I am speechless now. However, wherever you are, I will always miss you.”

Upon finishing her words, Yu Fengzhi lifted up her head without hesitation and kissed Qin Sheng’s face affectionately. After that, she let go of Qin Sheng resolutely. Qin Sheng found it funny and didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. He waved his hands at everybody on the scene, got in the car, and left without even turning back.

After Qin Sheng left the Hunan Cuisine Restaurant, he directly went back to the Golden Coast in Binjiang. Ever since Lin Su was gone, only he stayed here. The house was not as warm as the previous one, which he had thought of as his home. Instead, it became somewhat desolate now. Lin Su had called him, saying that she had arrived in Ningbo by high-speed train at noon and she was accompanying her grandmother now at this moment. Qin Sheng had not asked her how she had dealt with all the family members of the Lin Family. He believed that Lin Su certainly could handle them quite well with her wisdom. At worst, she would choose to ignore them directly.

Qin Sheng packed his stuff away randomly, which were all necessities. Of course, he would not take other messy items along with him. He could buy others he needed in Wuhan at that time.

At this time, Qin Sheng received a text on his mobile. When he read through the text, he was so startled that cold sweat rolled down his back because what the text said was: “Third Master Wu has united with both the Qu Family and Yan Family to get you killed. You should leave as quickly as possible. Don’t ever trust anybody.”

The Qu Family and the Yan Family had driven Qin Sheng into a dead end and made him feel hard-pressed. Even Third Master Wu intended to kill him now. Qin Sheng was so astounded that he was speechless. He wondered whether it was because he had done something pretty vicious in his previous life or not that the three strong forces in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai regions actually had united together to eradicate him.

As for why Third Master Wu intended to kill him, Qin Sheng had an answer in his mind subconsciously. He did not bear any grudge against Third Master Wu and was on pretty good terms with both Luo Changgong and Yang Deng. Back when Third Master Wu had held a birthday party, he had even given him two valuable gifts, but Third Master Wu actually intended to kill him now. Obviously, either the Qu Family or the Yan Family had promised Third Master Wu great benefits, causing Third Master Wu, who had been indifferent to all worldly affairs before, to make up his mind to kill Qin Sheng.

After Qin Sheng came to his senses, he knew he could not stay here anymore. Leaving tomorrow evening definitely would not work. He had to leave tonight. Otherwise, he would not have a chance to leave here.

After Qin Sheng made up his mind, he called Chang Baji immediately and said, “Lao Chang, I will leave tonight. The Qu Family and the Yan Family united with Third Master Wu. If I still stay here, I am afraid that I can’t leave here anymore.”

Upon hearing this piece of news, Chang Baji was astounded for a long time before he came to his senses. He thought, “Even Third Master Wu was convinced. Qin Sheng was so unlucky that the three strong forces even united together to deal with him. Probably nobody would believe it if he told them so.”

After Chang Baji came to his senses, he said calmly, “You wait in the Golden Coast. We are on our way to pick you up.” At nightfall, he had discussed and made a plan with Hao Lei to ensure that Qin Sheng could leave Hangzhou City safe and sound. However, it occurred to neither of them that Qin Sheng would need to leave in such a hasty manner.

Qin Sheng nodded quietly and said, “OK.”

Chang Baji and Hao Lei went back to their apartment, which had four big bedrooms. They had been living together all the time. Gu Qingyang was already there. Chang Baji felt somewhat indignant since Gu Xiaobo had not come back yet.

He stared at Gu Qingyang and asked, “Why is Xiaobo not at home yet? Call him now and inform him that wherever he is and whatever he is doing now, he needs to come back home immediately.”

This was the first time that Gu Qingyang had seen his Senior Uncle Chang act like this. Consequently, he called Gu Xiaobo in a hurry. In this case, Gu Xiaobo probably would be scolded after he came back.

Meanwhile, Chang Baji gave orders to Hao Lei as he said, “An accident happened. We need to jump the gun. Ask Tang She to leave for the Golden Coast now and drive directly into the underground garage.”

Hao Lei slightly changed the look on his face. Instead of asking for more details, he said straightforwardly, “All right. I will set it up right away.”

Originally, Qin Sheng had planned to leave tomorrow evening. However, he had no choice but to be forced to leave now. Who on earth had sent him the text?

Nan Shan Road was in close proximity to West Lake. At this moment, while holding an umbrella, Gu Xiaobo stood beside the lake and gazed at the foggy and rainy West Lake. Two men stood across from him, speaking with him in undertones.

At this time, Gu Xiaobo’s mobile phone rang. The man across from Gu Xiaobo stared at him closely and said, “Pick it up right here.”

Gu Xiaobo was hesitant for a while. In the end, he picked up the phone, only to hear Gu Qingyang directly shout at him, “Xiaobo, where are you now? Senior Uncle ordered you to come back home right away.”

Gu Xiaobo looked calmly as he said, “I get it and will come back home right away.”
