Source Of Calamity - Ch 25
As soon as Su Shiqing’s words fell, Qin Yue’s eyes changed. He didn’t expect Su Shiqing to be so stupid. Qin Yue wanted to open his mouth to cover up for Su Shiqing’s mistake, but before Qin Yue opened his mouth, Qin Xing spoke.
Qin Xing said, “I know.”
Su Shiqing’s eyes widened, he was dumbfounded, and stammered, “Uncle…..you know…..then why did you still…..”
Qin Xing smiled and said, “I know what you know, and I know what you don’t.”
Su Shiqing: “…..”
Qin Xing’s eyes were cold, but his smile never faded. He said, “Have you said everything you wanted to say?”
Su Shiqing didn’t speak, he was completely dumbfounded.
Qin Yue quickly said: “Uncle, Shi Qing is also afraid that Xiao Zhen will make a mistake, and he has no bad intentions.”
“It doesn’t matter whether he has ulterior goals or not.” Qin Xing stood up, “Ah Yue, if you can’t even manage the people around you well, what else can I expect from you?”
In Qin Xing’s eyes, Su Shiqing was like a flea. It didn’t matter whether he was tall, short, fat or thin, and Qin Xing didn’t have to exterminate it himself.
But Qin Yue was different. The child he raised was originally smart and generous, fierce and cunning like a wolf, but also able to pretend to be upright and carefree.
However, since Su Shiqing appeared, Qin Yue’s brain seemed to have developed a problem, and his IQ dropped by an unknown amount.
People who came into contact with Su Shiqing seemed to have this tendency.
“Ah Yue, since this Mr. Su’s surname is not Qin, you should not bring him home in the future. Uncle has no time to care about what you do outside.” Before leaving, Qin Xing turned to look at Qin Yue: “Ah Yue , if you still want to continue to sit firmly as the heir of the Qin family, then stop acting on your own initiative.”
Qin Xing: “Don’t take advantage of Uncle for being too good-tempered.”
Qin Yue took a step back in horror. He watched Qin Xing leave the study in a frozen state before sitting down heavily on the sofa.
He knew that Uncle was right. He had indeed done a lot of stupid things recently. He didn’t know why he did some things. But every time he got an idea in his head, he immediately did it.
Only now did Su Shiqing knew to be panicked. He leaned closer to Qin Yue, brows furrowed, eyes filled with tears, and nervously went to clutch at Qin Yue’s hand: “Ah Yue, does Uncle hate me? Are you angry with me?”
Qin Yue, who was originally thinking, seemed to have his brain emptied at this moment. He looked at Su Shiqing with tender distress, held Su Shiqing’s hand back, kissed Su Shiqing’s forehead lightly, and comforted him: “Don’t worry, Uncle may have heard Xiao Zhen say something.”
“I don’t even know why Xiao Zhen hates me so much!” Su Shiqing felt aggrieved, “I’ve never done anything wrong to Xiao Zhen, I know Xiao Zhen likes you, but how can a person control one’s heart? Falling in love is out of one’s control, and emotional matters can’t be assigned to first come first served.”
“Xiao Zhen feels that I snatched you away, but if you love him, you wouldn’t have been snatched. Why doesn’t he reflect on this? If he was good enough, how can he be robbed of his lover?” Su Shiqing, “And you’re originally not his lover at all, you haven’t been together for even a day.”
Su Shiqing said sadly: “He also said that anyone can be with you, but I am the only one who can’t, only me he will not accept.”
“I don’t know why Xiao Zhen hates me so much. What exactly does he hate about me?”
Qin Yue couldn’t figure it out either. After all, it was Shen Zhen who brought Su Shiqing to the Qin family. If Shen Zhen didn’t like Su Shiqing, how could he have brought Su Shiqing over.
But Shen Zhen’s attitude was there, and anyone with eyes could see that he didn’t like Su Shiqing anymore.
Perhaps if Su Shiqing was unlucky, he would even be secretly happy.
Qin Yue put the coat on for Su Shiqing: “I’ll take you back first.”
Su Shiqing shook his head quickly: “Ah Yue, don’t send me back to the Su family, I don’t want to go back, you don’t know how my family treats me, Ah Yue…..”
“I’ll find a way.” Qin Yue patted him on the shoulder, “I bought a house outside some time ago, I’ll take you there for now.”
Su Shiqing suddenly became happy: “Ah Yue, will you be living with me?”
Qin Yue shook his head: “I have to stay at home recently.”
Su Shiqing lowered his eyes in desolation, but quickly cheered up, showing a warm and innocent smile to Qin Yue: “It’s okay, I can live well by myself, you don’t have to worry about me, and don’t be top busy on my account.”
Qin Yue smoothed Su Shiqing’s hair, and sighed: “It won’t be long, I will hire an auntie to take care of you, and the environment in the community is also very good, haven’t you always wanted to keep a pet? I asked someone to buy you a pet, a corgi.”
“I’ve always wanted to have a dog, Ah Yue, you’re so kind.” Su Shiqing threw himself into Qin Yue’s arms, “Then come and see me more during the day.”
Qin Yue said dotingly: “Okay.”
Shen Zhen, who was sleeping, didn’t know what had happened. He was having a nightmare. In the dream, it was what he experienced in his previous life.
At that time, he was still immersed in the blow of Qin Yue and Su Shiqing being together.
Su Shiqing was a person who could be said to have some skills, but did not have any skills. He didn’t understand business affairs, and he didn’t know how to deal with people in the upper class, but he had a group of bizarre supporters. Those people included a bigwig in the business world, a gambling king, a scientist, and a leading doctor in the industry. They pursue and love Su Shiqing like they have taken the wrong medicine.
These people also caused Qin Yue a lot of trouble.
However, Su Shiqing said, “I don’t feel anything for them, and I don’t know why they are like this.”
But once faced with those people, he would never outright reject them, he would always say something like: “I think you are a very nice person.”
“You are so kind, no one has ever cared so much about me.”
While dealing with these rivals, Qin Yue fell in love with Su Shiqing even more.
Shen Zhen’s death in his previous life was just that of an expendable victim of various emotional games. Don’t know which of Su Shiqing’s suitors found out that he had offended Su Shiqing, and then started to punish him. During that time, Shen Zhen didn’t even have money to eat.
Facing the double attack from Su Shiqing’s suitors and the Shen family, Shen Zhen was powerless to fight back.
When he was at a dead end, he finally lowered his head and went to look for Qin Yue, hoping that he would be the better man and let him go.
The first thing Qin Yue said when he saw him was: “Why don’t you go die?”
At that time, Shen Zhen only felt that there was nothing more despairing than the death of the heart.
Qin Yue said: “How did you treat Shi Qing? Do you remember? Shi Qing doesn’t want to quibble with you, but I can’t pretend that I don’t know. Shi Qing treats everyone sincerely and has never been malicious. Shen Zhen, you still don’t feel regret even now? Don’t you feel ashamed?”
When Qin Yue’s words fell, Shen Zhen passed out. His health had stretched to the limit, and his whole body had been hollowed out long ago.
When he woke up again, it was due to being trampled awake by Su Shiqing.
After Su Shiqing stepped on him, he covered his mouth in surprise: “Why is Xiao Zhen here?”
However, he did not back away, his foot was still on the back of Shen Zhen’s hand.
Shen Zhen woke up from the nightmare, he panted harshly, his heart was beating like it was going to burst through his chest, he was gnashing his teeth, his eyes were full of fury, he hadn’t thought about all this for a long time, and he never thought about the past after he was reborn.
However, a sudden dream reminded him of the humiliation and hatred at that time.
Why should he forget the past?
Why was he pretending nothing happened?
Weren’t Qin Yue and Su Shiqing walking the same old path in this lifetime?
If there was no Qin Xing in this life, Qin Yue and Su Shiqing would still be the same as in the previous life.
His sin was that with him as a foil, Su Shiqing would only seem useless in comparison.
So the author wanted to kill him off, to make him die in humiliation, so that Su Shiqing’s image as a little white lotus flower would be invincible.
Look, Su Shiqing didn’t even need to get his hands dirty, there were countless people willing to help him get rid of him.
Shen Zhen walked up to the mirror, his eyes red with hatred.
He had a job now and was about to set up his own real estate company and his own network information company.
He had everything he didn’t have in his previous life.
That being the case, why couldn’t he compete with Qin Yue? Called a king if successful, called a bandit if defeated, so even if he lost, he had no regrets.
Shen Zhen woke up from a nightmare at three o’clock in the morning and couldn’t fall asleep again. He sat in front of the windowsill and searched for information about the Su family. He had never known much about the Su family before, because this family was a burden to Su Shiqing. After Su Shiqing gained power, the Su family’s fate was also miserable.
Shen Zhen didn’t care whether the Su family had a good or bad ending, none of that mattered.
Su Shiqing had three male cousins and two female cousins.
Their relationship with Su Shiqing was not good, and Su Shiqing’s eldest uncle was in charge of the Su family’s business.
Su Shiqing’s eldest male cousin and eldest female cousin have already started to mingle in social venues, making friends, connections, and benefiting the family.
Shen Zhen’s mouth curled into a sneer.
Presumably the Su family didn’t want Su Shiqing to gain power either?
They didn’t treat Su Shiqing very well in the past, and they didn’t naively think that Su Shiqing would really repay evil with kindness.
Shen Zhen called Assistant Ma in the middle of the night.
Assistant Ma was still sleeping at this time, but his phone was switched on 24 hours a day, and he was on standby at any time. The moment he picked up the phone, his tone was very sober, as if he hadn’t slept all night, and he was extremely calm: “Young Master Shen, what’s the matter?”
Shen Zhen: “I’m sorry, Brother Ma, for disturbing you so late, I want to know the contact information of the eldest young master of the Su family.”
Assistant Ma seemed to be rummaging through the documents, and after a while he said, “I sent it to your mailbox, please check it.”
Assistant Ma would not ask other questions. He had seen a lot of things, and he would not dig to the bottom of it. This was the ethics of a senior assistant.
“Thank you Brother Ma, I’ll treat you to a meal when there’s time.” Shen Zhen said politely.
Assistant Ma smiled and said, “It will be good if you just to speak kindly of me in front of Mr. Qin, for the sake of my dedicated work ethics.”
Shen Zhen agreed: “Definitely.”
If only all the employees were like Brother Ma, Shen Zhen thought when he hung up the phone.
But it was impossible to think about it. How much was Brother Ma’s annual salary? How much was the annual salary of ordinary employees?
There were very few people who could achieve the position of Brother Ma.
Shen Zhen saved the number of the eldest young master of the Su family, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, propping his chin with his hand, he walked out of the room in a good mood, and went to pour a cup of coffee for himself.
He wondered what would happen to Su Shiqing, Qin Yue, and that business bigwig in this life.
He had a hard time in his previous life, so how could he let them continue enjoying themselves?
