SOURCE OF CALAMITY CH 025 CALLED A KING IF SUCCESSFUL, CALLED A BANDIT IF DEFEATED
As soon as Su Shiqingâs words fell, Qin Yueâs eyes changed. He didnât expect Su Shiqing to be so stupid. Qin Yue wanted to open his mouth to cover up for Su Shiqingâs mistake, but before Qin Yue opened his mouth, Qin Xing spoke.
Qin Xing said, âI know.â
Su Shiqingâs eyes widened, he was dumbfounded, and stammered, âUncleâŚ..you knowâŚ..then why did you stillâŚ..â
Qin Xing smiled and said, âI know what you know, and I know what you donât.â
Su Shiqing: ââŚ..â
Qin Xingâs eyes were cold, but his smile never faded. He said, âHave you said everything you wanted to say?â
Su Shiqing didnât speak, he was completely dumbfounded.
Qin Yue quickly said: âUncle, Shi Qing is also afraid that Xiao Zhen will make a mistake, and he has no bad intentions.â
âIt doesnât matter whether he has ulterior goals or not.â Qin Xing stood up, âAh Yue, if you canât even manage the people around you well, what else can I expect from you?â
In Qin Xingâs eyes, Su Shiqing was like a flea. It didnât matter whether he was tall, short, fat or thin, and Qin Xing didnât 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 Yueâs 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.
âAh Yue, since this Mr. Suâs surname is not Qin, you should not bring him home in the future. Uncle has no time to care about what you do outside.â Before leaving, Qin Xing turned to look at Qin Yue: âAh Yue , if you still want to continue to sit firmly as the heir of the Qin family, then stop acting on your own initiative.â
Qin Xing: âDonât take advantage of Uncle for being too good-tempered.â
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 didnât 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 Yueâs hand: âAh Yue, does Uncle hate me? Are you angry with me?â
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 Shiqingâs hand back, kissed Su Shiqingâs forehead lightly, and comforted him: âDonât worry, Uncle may have heard Xiao Zhen say something.â
âI donât even know why Xiao Zhen hates me so much!â Su Shiqing felt aggrieved, âIâve never done anything wrong to Xiao Zhen, I know Xiao Zhen likes you, but how can a person control oneâs heart? Falling in love is out of oneâs control, and emotional matters canât be assigned to first come first served.â
âXiao Zhen feels that I snatched you away, but if you love him, you wouldnât have been snatched. Why doesnât he reflect on this? If he was good enough, how can he be robbed of his lover?â Su Shiqing, âAnd youâre originally not his lover at all, you havenât been together for even a day.â
Su Shiqing said sadly: âHe also said that anyone can be with you, but I am the only one who canât, only me he will not accept.â
âI donât know why Xiao Zhen hates me so much. What exactly does he hate about me?â
Qin Yue couldnât figure it out either. After all, it was Shen Zhen who brought Su Shiqing to the Qin family. If Shen Zhen didnât like Su Shiqing, how could he have brought Su Shiqing over.
But Shen Zhenâs attitude was there, and anyone with eyes could see that he didnât 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: âIâll take you back first.â
Su Shiqing shook his head quickly: âAh Yue, donât send me back to the Su family, I donât want to go back, you donât know how my family treats me, Ah YueâŚ..â
âIâll find a way.â Qin Yue patted him on the shoulder, âI bought a house outside some time ago, Iâll take you there for now.â
Su Shiqing suddenly became happy: âAh Yue, will you be living with me?â
Qin Yue shook his head: âI have to stay at home recently.â
Su Shiqing lowered his eyes in desolation, but quickly cheered up, showing a warm and innocent smile to Qin Yue: âItâs okay, I can live well by myself, you donât have to worry about me, and donât be top busy on my account.â
Qin Yue smoothed Su Shiqingâs hair, and sighed: âIt wonât be long, I will hire an auntie to take care of you, and the environment in the community is also very good, havenât you always wanted to keep a pet? I asked someone to buy you a pet, a corgi.â
âIâve always wanted to have a dog, Ah Yue, youâre so kind.â Su Shiqing threw himself into Qin Yueâs arms, âThen come and see me more during the day.â
Qin Yue said dotingly: âOkay.â
Shen Zhen, who was sleeping, didnât 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 didnât understand business affairs, and he didnât 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, âI donât feel anything for them, and I donât know why they are like this.â
But once faced with those people, he would never outright reject them, he would always say something like: âI think you are a very nice person.â
âYou are so kind, no one has ever cared so much about me.â
While dealing with these rivals, Qin Yue fell in love with Su Shiqing even more.
Shen Zhenâs death in his previous life was just that of an expendable victim of various emotional games. Donât know which of Su Shiqingâs suitors found out that he had offended Su Shiqing, and then started to punish him. During that time, Shen Zhen didnât even have money to eat.
Facing the double attack from Su Shiqingâs 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: âWhy donât you go die?â
At that time, Shen Zhen only felt that there was nothing more despairing than the death of the heart.
Qin Yue said: âHow did you treat Shi Qing? Do you remember? Shi Qing doesnât want to quibble with you, but I canât pretend that I donât know. Shi Qing treats everyone sincerely and has never been malicious. Shen Zhen, you still donât feel regret even now? Donât you feel ashamed?â
When Qin Yueâs 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: âWhy is Xiao Zhen here?â
However, he did not back away, his foot was still on the back of Shen Zhenâs 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 hadnât 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?
Werenât 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 Shiqingâs image as a little white lotus flower would be invincible.
Look, Su Shiqing didnât 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 didnât have in his previous life.
That being the case, why couldnât 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 oâclock in the morning and couldnât 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 familyâs fate was also miserable.
Shen Zhen didnât 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 Shiqingâs eldest uncle was in charge of the Su familyâs business.
Su Shiqingâs eldest male cousin and eldest female cousin have already started to mingle in social venues, making friends, connections, and benefiting the family.
Shen Zhenâs mouth curled into a sneer.
Presumably the Su family didnât want Su Shiqing to gain power either?
They didnât treat Su Shiqing very well in the past, and they didnât 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 hadnât slept all night, and he was extremely calm: âYoung Master Shen, whatâs the matter?â
Shen Zhen: âIâm sorry, Brother Ma, for disturbing you so late, I want to know the contact information of the eldest young master of the Su family.â
Assistant Ma seemed to be rummaging through the documents, and after a while he said, âI sent it to your mailbox, please check it.â
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.
âThank you Brother Ma, Iâll treat you to a meal when thereâs time.â Shen Zhen said politely.
Assistant Ma smiled and said, âIt will be good if you just to speak kindly of me in front of Mr. Qin, for the sake of my dedicated work ethics.â
Shen Zhen agreed: âDefinitely.â
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 Maâs 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?
