It was the first time that Qin Sheng had seen someone cottoning up to others in such a way. Could it be that he was not afraid that he would be beaten when he would go outside?
Qin Sheng eyed the fellow in front of him up and down and finally understood why that person had initiated such a weird opening remark. He was exactly a weirdo among all the people in the entire classroom.
On their way here, Fang Huawei had already informed Qin Sheng about the situation of the study program in detail. It was not a traditional EMBA gold-plated class. Otherwise, it would be the same as all other business schools, which were flooding everywhere now. This distinction could be seen from the lists of the instructors this time, who were all the top ones of Tsinghua University. Besides, many of them were members of the advisory board, including the business leaders at home and abroad, as well as senior officials of Ministries and Commissions.
Firstly, people cou
Hangzhou, Xixi, Yuerong Manor. These three keywords already allowed Qin Sheng to understand what this man wanted to say. This man knew him, and he had met Qin Sheng at Yuerong Manor in Hangzhou, during his incident with Yan Chaozong and Qu Huanxi. "I'm afraid you've got the wrong person," replied Qin Sheng in a cold voice. Although he was no longer afraid of Yan Chaozong's gang, Qin Sheng did not want to let anyone know he was currently in Beijing, especially this group of people. He would deal with Yan Chaozong after he figured out his life and understood the details of the Qin and Zhu families' background. The man wore a fancy outfit. On the inside, he wore a British-style suit, which he had gotten tailored at Savile Street. He topped it off with a grey coat and Hermès scarf. His outfit presented himself as an upper-society elite man. "I don't think so. You can't possibly look the same and have the same name, right? Besides,
After Qin Sheng got onto the car, Qin Ran then told him that she was bringing him to the siheyuan for dinner. Every month on this date, Qin Ra would always return to the siheyuan to have dinner with Qin Changan. It had already become an unwritten rule. No matter how angry she was at him, she must still be filial to her parent. Hence, now that Qin Sheng had come back, she would also make him follow this rule. She hoped that the father and son could have more interactions. Otherwise, their relationship would continue to be stiff. During this time, Qin Sheng's heart had calmed down gradually, and he had figured out some things. He had started to look at things from Qin Changan's point of view. He was Qin Changan's son, Qin Changan definitely did not have ill intentions towards him. He had sent someone to follow him secretly in order to protect him. Thinking about it, without this protection, he could have died on Mount Jiuhua already. How could he possibly be living so fr
Some love stories were too perfect, which was why God could bear to break them apart. If the incident from more than 20 years ago had not happened, perhaps many people would continue to admire Qin Sheng's parents' love. When they had first met, they had been barely 16. There had been a big snowfall, and the accumulated snow in the backyard had reached their ankles. A few boys had been there building a snowman. A girl wrapped in a wool jacket had been standing not far away, watching them silently. Her cheeks had been red, and she had been humming a song that no one had heard before. Qin Changan had been led into the courtyard by his father. He had been instantly attracted to the girl. Afterward, when recalling that day, he had said that he had finally understood what it meant by 'a glance of a thousand years' and 'continuing the relationship of previous life'. His father had gone back in, but Qin Changan had just stood there, mo
The name of this bar was also very interesting. It was called Dayin (Big Camouflage), which gave the idea of 'hiding in the city is far better than hiding in the forest'. After all, this bar was hidden in the city area. The guests in the restaurant outside definitely did not know that there was still a high-class bar hidden behind. The bar's space was not tiny. The decoration was very unique, as well. There were three pool tables in the middle, and large sofa seats lined the windows. Four-seaters were scattered all over. On the north side against the wall was the bar counter. The whole wall was filled with all kinds of alcohol in the wine cabinet. As long as you could find the name for it, they had it. There were two bartenders, one male one female. They were both good looking. After all, those who could come in were not ordinary people, and the owner was not short of this sum of money. On the right was a corridor leading deeper into the bar. There was a
Due to the difference in cultures in places, every place has a different value system. For example, in Dongbei, the majority of people felt that as long as you were rich, you were the boss. They felt that money was powerful and there was nothing you could not do with money. Many people became government officials just to earn money. A small leader could earn up to billions, so the corruption in Dongbei was very serious. The neighboring city of Shangdong was exactly the opposite. Hometown to Kong Meng, this city had been influenced by traditional ideas. Those who wanted to earn big money only wanted to become an official at most. For example, those five fake ministers. They bought their way from being businessmen up to the vice-ministerial level. Needless to say, how many big shots in the government and army came out of Shandong all these years? There was a joke that said that the highest praise a Shandong elder could give a younger one was that this kid would grow up t
Their chit-chat continued, unhindered by the previous interlude. At this time, Qin Sheng had attracted everybody's attention. Ma Weiyang and Zhang Da had endless questions for him, for they were even more worried about Qin Sheng than Qin Ran. They were eager to listen to his experiences and his ups and downs over the past 20 years. Qin Sheng was somewhat surprised by their enthusiasm and didn't know how to react properly. The other two men, Yin Hao and Yang Shihua, only spoke a couple of sentences but paid close attention to the others. They just stayed involved in the chat and never interrupted others' speech. Even though their families had some connections with each other more or less, these two had entered the circle later than others. Also, they were relatively younger, so they chose to keep a low profile. Compared with Wei Li, who had tried extremely hard to enter the group, Qin Sheng made it rather easily. This was not only because of his relationsh
In the early morning, Qin Changan got up first. The snow outside had not melted, and some places on the road were covered with ice. Qin Changan didn't go out for jogging, but he went downstairs to the gym in the basement for exercise. After Qin Changan finishing his exercise, he found Gongsun, who had been waiting for him in the dining room. Qin Changan found that today's breakfast was more abundant than usual. He felt surprised and asked, "Anything special today? Why do we have a feast for breakfast?" Gongsun gave Qin Changan a glass of milk and said with giggling, "Qin Sheng and Qin Ran are home. They are still asleep." Qin Changan didn't expect that Qin Sheng and Qin Ran were back to the siheyuan. He thought they would never return to his place. It was the first time Qin Sheng had stayed here since he had been back to Beijing. What was more surprising, Qin Ran was back as well. Qin Changan was happy about their return, which
After Qin Sheng's mother had passed away, the Zhu Family and the Qin Family had a quarrel over the location of her grave. The Zhu Family thought she should rest in the Mountain Babao Cemetery since her parents, who were the Zhus, were going to rest there after they died. They hoped that they could rest in a place close to their daughter. However, the Qin Family hadn't agreed. Old Master Qin was a master of feng shui theory. According to feng shui, the location of one's grave would influence one's other families and even the future generation. Old Master Qin had insisted that he must find an appropriate grave location for his daughter-in-law mostly for the benefit of the Qin Family. Thus, he had been fiercely against the Zhus and looked throughout Beijing, finally finding a suitable location at the foot of the Great Wall near Huairou. Old Master Qin believed that the nice grave he had found would guarantee that the dead would lead a better life in the heav
