Chapter 451 - Am I More Beautiful?” Aren’t You?” (1/2)
Chapter 451 “Am I More Beautiful?” “Aren’t You?”
Since Qin Sheng had dared to go to Ningbo, it meant that he had made up his mind that he would not avoid anybody. After all, such a great scene had been made. Those enemies of Qin Sheng’s must have known what he had done in Ningbo. Even so, Qin Sheng would not give a damn about them at all, whom he had to get revenge on sooner or later. However, currently, Qin Sheng did not have time for them. If they took the initiative to confront him in person recklessly, he would not mind dealing with them conveniently at all.
Qin Sheng was no longer what he used to be, who had had no choice but to defend himself passively. Currently, Qin Sheng took control of the initiative to launch an attack. Moreover, the difference between his capability and that of his enemies had been transformed qualitatively. Right now, it was Qin Sheng who had the upper hand.
Yan Chaozong had known that Qin Sheng had come back and that it was Qin Sheng who had caused all the trouble in Ningbo. At that moment, the gang members in Hangzhou were investigating what had happened in Ningbo as well, especially Third Master Wu, who had been living on Mount Putuo for a long time exclusively. Since such a great issue had happened under his nose, of course, he was greatly concerned.
It was not until 4 p.m. that the old lady woke up in the old-style villa on Sinan Road. Qin Sheng, who was free and at leisure, was chatting with the medical staffers there, inquiring about how it was going with his grandmother’s health condition, which was his greatest concern currently. After all, he was unwilling to see the kind of situation taking place in which his grandmother would part from him when he had hardly just reconciled with her.
Two pairs of medical staffers took care of the old lady by changing shifts every other day, who were all experienced and senior nurses from Ruijin Hospital. It was a young woman in her 30s named Xu Lan who was on duty today. Although she was not quite good-looking, she looked quite well preserved. Most importantly, she had a mild temperament.
According to Xu Lan, the blood pressure of the old lady was quite high and something had gone wrong with her heart. Organ failures took place in her body gradually. If her health condition did not worsen, it would be no problem at all for her to live on for several more years. However, nobody could be confident about some things.
The health condition of Qin Sheng’s grandmother was worse than what he had anticipated. However, Qin Sheng was clear about how his grandmother was doing now, making him feel more assertive that he should pursue his future career in Shanghai so that he could have more time to accompany his grandmother, who would not need to always keep him in her mind then. For Qin Sheng, the family connection was the most important thing. He felt especially so while facing his grandmother’s current situation. He did not want to be regretful anymore. After all, he already had many regrets in his life so far.
After his grandma woke up, Qin Sheng chatted with her in the living room and also massaged her shoulders.
With such a filial grandson by her side, the old lady grinned with happiness and said smilingly, “Sheng’er, when did the girl, Ruyu, leave?”
Qin Sheng replied evenly, “She left soon after you fell asleep this afternoon due to some emergency. However, we exchanged contact numbers with each other. I will show her around in the future.”
The old lady nodded quietly and said, “The girl is the Old Master Song’s favorite. You have to take care of her well on my behalf. To be honest, if you did not have a girlfriend, I would be happy to bring you two together. After all, it would be a legendary story if our families cemented the old ties because of your marriage.”
As Qin Sheng heard what his grandmother had said, he did not know whether he should laugh or cry as he replied, “Grandma, don’t confuse who my partner is by mistake. How could I deserve Ruyu?”
The old lady replied unhappily, “What do you mean, Sheng’er? Are other girls from other families out of your league? They should feel happy in secret for being married to you, Sheng’er.”
In the elder’s eyes, their descendants were always the best. Of course, the old lady also thought so. After all, both the family background of the Zhu Family and Qin Family were there. It was true that nobody in Sijiu City dared to say that Qin Sheng did not deserve the girl in their family.
Qin Sheng kept talking with the old lady until it was 5 p.m. Since Chang Baji was waiting for him at the entrance, he greeted the old lady before he left. The old lady was somewhat unhappy, who insisted that Qin Sheng should not leave before he had dinner. It was not until Qin Sheng told her that he had asked others, including his Small Aunt, to eat outside that the old lady agreed to let him go.
In Shimao Riviera Garden, Song Chu and Tan Jing had helped Lin Su choose what she was going to wear at the dinner tonight. In the end, they had gone to the Shanghai International Finance Center and spent only an hour there before they had completed the mission. After all, Lin Su was a born beauty, who would look quite beautiful no matter what she wore.
As Song Chu stared at Lin Su, who was ill at ease, she did not know whether she should laugh or cry as she said, “Susu, you have been together with Qin Sheng for so long a time. There is nothing for you to worry about since you are going there to meet the elders of his family. Moreover, you are so beautiful that his family members will surely be satisfied with you.” She wondered why Lin Su had acted like this. Based on Lin Su’s reaction, it was clear that she loved Qin Sheng sincerely.
Tan Jing, who was sitting by the side of Lin Su, echoed her agreement, “Yeah. Feel free to meet the elders of his family relaxedly and boldly. Nothing will take place.”
Lin Su let out a sigh as she said, “If not for what happened before, I wouldn’t be so anxious now. However, the reason I am somewhat afraid is that his family members know how my family treated Qin Sheng in the past.”
Song Chu replied thoughtfully, “What you said does make sense. To be honest, any elder from any family would be somewhat resentful if they knew how your family treated Qin Sheng. However, seriously, it did not occur to us that Qin Sheng would turn out to be a secretive super-rich kid of a tycoon. Previously, we all thought he did not deserve you. Nobody could know the situation would turn the other way around. Susu, I admire your insight sincerely. Both Tan Jing and I are inferior to you when it comes to insight. However, what I am curious about is why Qin Sheng did not tell you about his family background before. If he had done so, he would not have gone through what happened later.”
Lin Su smiled gently as she replied, “When it comes to some things, you don’t know them well. Life is filled with surprises. He probably did not know what would happen to him at that moment either.”
Song Chu asked with great interest, “Susu, what on earth does Qin Sheng’s family do? Both Jingjing and I know what happened in Ningbo. What happened to Lin Songhao is astounding, let alone what happened to your family.”
Tan Jing, who was displeased with what Song Chu had said, snorted and said, “Song Chu, what is the point of these questions? What matters is that Qin Sheng should be nice to Lin Su. They’ve ended up happily now.”
Lin Su replied casually, “I don’t know either. I probably will know it in the future.”
As the women talked with each other, Qin Sheng opened the door and walked in. After he saw both Song Chu and Tan Jing were there, he was somewhat surprised. To be honest, he was not resentful toward them, who were Lin Su’s two besties. He understood what they had done in the past. After all, all they had done was for the good of Lin Su. They had expected Lin Su to find someone who was her match and deserved her.
