People have different pursuits. Some aspire for the improvement of material life and some others are in pursuit of the satisfaction of their spiritual world. However happy the material life is, if the spiritual world cannot keep pace with the material life, people will get lost sooner or later.
That was what Qin Sheng was most concerned about. During the period when he had been in Shanghai and Hangzhou, every time he had taken a bolder approach, he had reminded himself that he should try his best to take it more and more slowly so that he could put his mind at ease gradually and keep going forward in the end.
However, ever since Qin Sheng had reconciled with his family members in Tsingtao and learned about his family background, he had been totally in disorder. The psychological gap in his mind was the same as what happened when a tall building had been built from scratch yet did not have a solid foundation. After that, it took Qin Sheng three months to acc
When a man looks at his loved one, he would have rich expressions in his eyes—the feelings of softness, the expectation of eternity, the light of happiness. It would seem that everything was fading except her. Qin Sheng, although he didn't have an idea of what others would want, he considered every single detail about rest of their lives every time he stared at Lin Su with deep love.Qin Sheng knew nothing about Hao Lei's feelings for Han Bing, which began and grew to this day. He was flustered since everyone knew Han Bing had fallen for him and about the thing that happened between them. Qin Sheng would be in a real dilemma if Hao Lei was very into Han Bing. Qin Sheng was all right with that and was even willing to be their matchmaker, but would this offend Han Bing? Would she be irritated? He was afraid to f*ck up everything and even lose a friend in the process.Qin Sheng also knew about Hao Lei, who was more likely to hide his feelings at the bottom of
When people's living conditions got better, they would naturally pursue morality. Society was more aware of civil virtues, except for some, like those two young men.All people, once they reached certain age, had to take responsibility for their actions. Parents were to blame if they raised naughty kids who made terrible mistakes.Those two young men were both at their twenties. Given their shameful behavior, cutting in line and being offensive, Qin Sheng was going to act in their parents' stead to give them a lesson of morality.Aside from Song Ruyu, who was so angry that she came out to criticize them, the rest of the people were indifferent and still. Qin Sheng could understand the older couple, they would prefer avoiding trouble given their advanced age. But what about the others? Was it none of their business? That was exactly the problem with modern day society. Most people were indifferent and only cared about their own interests. The go
Although the barbecue and seafood were delicious and the beer tasted good, Qin Sheng was not interested anymore. That was because he had been shocked by what Song Ruyu said. It didn't occur to him that this girl would be so amazing, to be working in the policy research office of the CPC central committee, which everybody knew was strict with their recruitment. Even if the applicants were descendants of the families whose predecessors had been leaders at the CPC, if they weren't genuinely talented, they would be unwilling to have them work in such a department.Song Ruyu asked amusedly, "What's wrong with you?" To her, what she did was nothing but a profession. After all, a lot of her friends worked in Ministries and Commissions; few of whom liked to work in her department, which had little extra gain to reap.On the contrary, Song Ruyu liked what she did very much. That was because, by doing her job, she could take part in the stipulation of the national po
The fastest way to travel by ground was to take a four-hour trip in a high speed train to travel from Shanghai to Beijing. Instead of taking a flight, Qin Sheng preferred to take the high speed train so that he could enjoy the scenery along the way. Chang Baji and Hao Lei sat on the row behind him. There was a little girl sitting on his right side; going by her looks, she had just enrolled in Middle School. She was enjoying movies in the iPad she was holding.Qin Sheng thought that the little girl was quite cute. Based on her temperament and the way she was dressed, she probably came from a rich family. If so, Qin Sheng wondered why the elders of her family had so easily allowed her to travel alone. "Could it be that they are confident that nothing will take place along the way?"The always smiling little girl may have sensed Qin Sheng's stare. She raised her head and offered a wider and radiant smile to Qin Sheng as she said, "Hello, uncle."Q
Qin Sheng liked the little Ke'er very much; she was cute, beautiful, kind, innocent, smart and considerate. If he had a daughter like her in the future, he would certainly spoil her and give her all his love.However, it didn't occur to him that Ke'er would live in the same street as him, which was a genuine twist of fate. Qin Sheng could not help sighing emotionally; a lot of things in life had been written in the stars. After some people met for the first time, they would be etched in each other's mind for thousands of years. However, although some people had passed by each other for tens of thousands of times, they would not be necessarily connected."Brother, what's wrong with you again?" Ke'er saw he was absentminded all of a sudden; she wondered what he was thinking about.Qin Sheng stroked Ke'er's hair and smiled as he replied, "If I tell you the truth, you may not believe it. We live in the same street. Don't you think life is interesti
All the households in the Hutong alley where the Qin Family house lay were secluded and distinguished homes, whose doors were closed tightly on usual days. People could not see what was going on inside the household from outside. Consequently, all the families living there were not ordinary ones at all. On usual days, rarely would they visit each other. After all, each family household was crowded with visitors and vehicles. Moreover, people living there were either the rich or the powerful, who were too occupied to have time for their neighbors.To say the least, they were old neighbors to each other living there for many years. Of course, they knew each other quite well. Even so, they were not much connected. Even if they knew the detailed background of each family nearby, they did not pay a visit specifically. Once they met each other, they only nodded and greeted, respectively. That was because, in the vanity fair of Sijiu City, where people did not necessarily make
Qin Sheng felt a little upset. He knew something must have happened to the company. Otherwise, the old man would not look so tired. He carried all the pressure alone and didn't intend to tell him. In fact, even if he told him, he couldn't help, which made Qin Sheng a little fidgeted.Qin Sheng watched the old man going upstairs and then looked at Uncle Gongsun and frowned. "Uncle Gongsun, I know there are some things the old man doesn't want to tell me, but since I have returned to the Qin Family, I am also responsible for it. Whether I can help you or not, I should know the truth."Gongsun didn't know what to say. Qin Changan hadn't told Qin Sheng the truth, so he couldn't tell him on his own. But Qin Sheng was not an outsider, so it was not good to keep him in the dark.After weighing the advantages and disadvantages, Gongsun decided to reveal a little. “Well, it's not too serious, but it's troublesome. If we can't deal with it properly, ther
If it was before, with Qin Sheng's character, he would like to meet different friends, so that he could broaden his horizons. He had no concerns or taboos before. But now Qin Sheng's identity and status had changed a lot. When he met new friends, he would ponder over the motives of these people, especially those who already knew his new identity, whose motives were interests. Otherwise, in their capacity, who was willing to make ordinary friends?Hence, it was hard for Qin Sheng and Wei Li to become true friends. They all knew it, and then they only sought what they wanted from each other. The careless Han Xu could be friends with Qin Sheng because Han Xu didn't want to get anything from Qin Sheng from the beginning. But Qin Sheng was still vigilant. After all, it was easy to fall in the dark.At this thought, Qin Sheng suddenly felt a little tired from living. But one must be tired if they wanted to go on. If one chose an ordinary road, they would not feel
