Chapter 464 - Zhang Mi Reaped What She Had Sown (2/2)

Qin Sheng didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. “That is where the difference between Wei Li’s and Han Xu’s character lies,” he thought.

Over the two classes in the afternoon, Han Xu looked somewhat absent-minded. It was unknown whether he did so because he was hurt by Zhang Mi, who he liked sincerely, or he felt uncomfortable in secret about being cheated like that. Even so, knowing that Han Xu was much better than anyone else when it came to self-healing, Qin Sheng did not offer him any condolence at all.

The two consecutive classes were quite fulfilling ones, where the tycoon, who had retired from his leading post many years ago, imparted much real stuff related to the economic and systematic transformation to them, from which Qin Sheng benefited a lot. His classmates also raised their hands enthusiastically and brought their questions up, inquiring about more profound questions.

When it was time for the group discussion, the old man in his 70s walked slowly to where Qin Sheng’s group was. He patted Qin Sheng gently on his shoulder, and smiled amiably as he asked, “Are you Qin Sheng?”

Feeling somewhat surprised, Qin Sheng nodded and smiled in a hurry. The old man, who didn’t say anything at all, replied, “If you feel confused about anything, feel free to turn to me directly.”

Qin Sheng, who didn’t know the hidden meaning of the old man’s words, had no choice but to keep nodding smilingly. After that, the old man went away.

After the classes were over, Han Xu was in a much better mood. After all, he had planned to organize a party tonight. If he were in a bad mood then, of course, nobody would be enthusiastic at all.

Han Xu forced a smile and asked, “Lao Qin, are you sure you don’t want to come with us?” Han Xu, who was unwilling to keep everything in his mind, certainly wanted to drink tonight so that he could vent off his dissatisfaction and resentment. The way he saw it, that was how he should live his life.

Since Chang Baji and Hao Lei had driven there to wait for Qin Sheng, he replied smilingly, “I have to go home first. Catch up with you later.”

Since Qin Sheng said so, Han Xu didn’t question him anymore.

On the way back to the siheyuan, Qin Sheng asked casually, “How did you feel there? Did you ever sense the aura of the youth and the power of the wisdom?”

Hao Lei sighed emotionally as he said, “Lao Qin, I feel regretful that I didn’t work hard at school that very year. Why didn’t you help me? I think I had potential at that time. If I had worked hard then, I couldn’t have gone so far as to feel so regretful now.”

Qin Sheng didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. “F*ck off. All you knew at that time was playing for fun. We did advise you many times. The times when you skipped and absented yourself from classes were much more than that when you attended classes.”

Feeling somewhat disappointed, Hao Lei replied helplessly, “Forget it. I don’t have any hope in my life. I’m just hoping that my son will be enrolled in Peking University or Tsinghua University someday.” The current society was no longer what it used to be. Previously, as long as one was bold and adventurous, they could carve out a niche. What the current society needed were talents and wisdom. If he had not been following Qin Sheng all the time, he might end up being just an ordinary policeman in the police station in Xi’an. Relying on the connections of his family, he probably would be a negligible leader. Even so, he would be unaccomplished all over his life.

Qin Sheng cursed at him smilingly and said, “Without even a girlfriend, you dare to dream of giving birth to a son. You have a lunatic dream.”

Qin Sheng’s words had no hidden meanings at all. However, hardly had he finished his words when he felt regretful. After all, the issue between Hao Lei and Han Bing, which brought him a headache, had not been solved yet.

By the time they arrived at the siheyuan, the dinner had been ready. Nan Gong was also home today. Qin Sheng was curious about what this woman had been doing on the usual days. However, he didn’t know how he should take the initiative to get information from her.

It was not until Qin Sheng asked Auntie Xue that he knew that as usual, the old guy would not be home for dinner today, saying that he would come back home pretty late. After that, Qin Sheng felt more intense in secret.

Only four persons were sitting at the dinner table. Other than answering Qin Sheng’s questions at times, Nan Gong lowered her head and focused on her dinner most of the time. She directly left after finishing the dinner, making Qin Sheng feel that the atmosphere was more and more unharmonious. He wondered why he was the only idler who had nothing to do while others were all in a rush.

The more Qin Sheng pondered on it, the more aggrieved he felt. In the end, he directly gave up on thinking about these issues. After the dinner, he would directly take Chang Baji and Hao Lei to Han Xu’s party, where he could drink and solve his numerous sorrows.
