Chapter 447 - End of the Story

Chapter 447 End of the Story

Qin Sheng finally took his revenge on the Lin Family and ended his story with the Lins. The Lin Family had lost its past honor and really declined. What Qin Sheng did this day was almost a monodrama, where no one dared to start any conversation with him, and either begged for mercy, or kept silence. He felt dull.

Before he came to Ningbo, Qin Sheng thought it would have been an intense fight with a couple of rounds, and never imagined that the Lin Family had declined so much that they couldn’t afford any strikes. It only took him three days to let the Lins surrender, which disappointed him a lot.

The good news was that he didn’t waste quite a few time or energy to handle these and could leave Ningbo for Shanghai, where he had piles of business to deal with, earlier than he expected.

Qin Sheng and Lin Su left the living room and ignored the Lins. They had done and gained what they wanted. These people would behave themselves and stay away from Qin Sheng and Lin Su for quite a long time in the following days. Moreover, he believed that since Lin Su was going to inherit 40% of the Lins’ business and wealth, becoming the next leader of the Lin Family, and none of them would look down upon her and her families couldn’t wait to rebuild their relationship with her. Only children insisted on telling right from wrong. In the adults’ world, however, interests spoke louder than emotions.

After Qin Sheng and Lin Su left, the Lins were still in the weird atmosphere—some were still crying, some sighing, and some slapping themselves, not daring to stop. After all, the bodyguards from the Qu Family were still there in the living room.

Qin Sheng, however, didn’t target at Lin Changhe’s family of three, who had cared for Lin Su a lot and never troubled Qin Sheng deliberately. Lin Changhe had to make a decision for the benefit of the whole Lin Family, but he appreciated Qin Sheng and never said anything injustice to him, let alone Lin Yue, who had been getting along well with Qin Sheng.

“That’s all. I’ve already surrendered. You’re not capable to fight against Qin Sheng, but if you’re gonna try, I won’t stop you, but remember, never get the Lin Family involved.” Lin Changting’s fake smile was replaced by a clouding face. He had never been so shameful, especially in front of the whole Lin Family, losing all his dignity.

There was nothing but silence. Yu Hong wanted to complain, but gave up once she thought about the young man’s unchallengeable looking. Since Lin Changting had declared that, her feelings were nothing. After all, she was incapable of doing anything without her husband and son.

Lin Changhe said flatly, “Nobody made a mistake for that thing, any big family would have done the same choice and Qin Sheng understood it. He’s a quite good and reasonable young man. I can tell from his attitude to Susu. Without Susu, he would have hated we Lin Family so much that he might kill some of us. We have made two mistakes here. One is that we didn’t treat Susu well. She’s one of the Lin Family anyway, and I don’t want to criticize you for how you treated her now, you know that, right? The other is that when Susu took Qin Sheng here for the first time, we had the right to disagree on their relationship and deal with that in many ways, but we shouldn’t have laughed at them with sarcasm. We created the hate in his mind by ourselves. So Qin Sheng had the right to take his revenge on us today, and you deserve these. Just think about what you’ve done. If you don’t change yourselves, you’ll make trouble for the family again sooner or later. Since my elder brother had decided to give me the leadership of the family, I’ll never indulge your behavior anymore.”

The Lins said nothing and just listened to Lin Changhe, who was so right about everything, ending the conflict between Qin Sheng and the Lin Family.

They just thought about what they’d done and regretted that they hadn’t been kind to Susu, or they wouldn’t have experienced this awkward situation. For example, Lin Changhe’s family of three would gain more further benefits.

Lin Su took Qin Sheng to the small yard where her grandmother lived. Since Lin Su had a conflict with the Lin Family, the old lady moved from the main building of the house here. After all, she was in a bad condition of health caused by her rage since she quarreled a lot with the Lin Brothers.

The old lady had a family hall for worshipping the Buddha, and she also moved her hall here. She was chanting scriptures in her hall, stilling, until the maid informed her that Susu and her boyfriend were coming. She rose to give them a look and a smile.

Lin Su, for a couple of days, had not seen her grandmother, who was in a cold war with the Family and even didn’t join in the New Year’s Eve Dinner Party. Lin Changting also didn’t allow Lin Su to come to see her. Therefore, Lin Su was so excited to see her grandmother now with her eyes red. “Grandmother, I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. You must be very worried about me.”

The old lady had been bitterly in worry for Lin Su’s thing. She had been with Lin Su since she knew that her granddaughter didn’t like Yan Chaozong and wanted to reject the engagement offering, encouraging her to seek her true love and good marriage. Lin Su should’ve broken down without the support of her grandmother.

The old lady had had a couple of medical conditions before, getting her even older-looking and a rather pale face. She held Lin Su’s hands and let out a fond smile. “My little girl, it’s not your fault, but mine. I was incapable to protect you.”

Lin Su tried to hold her tears back by pressing her lips together tightly. “Grandmother, don’t say so. You’re making me feel worse.”

Qin Sheng squeezed Lin Su’s shoulder a bit to ground her. “Susu, Grandmother cares about you. You should be happy now. Everything’s all right now.”

Lin Su nodded and wiped the tears gathering at the corner of her eyes.

The old lady then turned to Qin Sheng and smiled. “Good boy, you never let me down. My Susu made a good choice of boyfriend. I’m not capable enough to protect her, but you do. I’m not worried about you two anymore.”

Qin Sheng was a bit hesitating. “Grandmother, don’t you feel bad at me for what I’ve done to Lin Family?”

The old lady sighed deeply. “Those are none of my business. I’m too old to concern them. The Lin Family had been declining for their improper behavior. Someone should appear and give them a lesson somehow, or they’ll finally ruin the whole family one day.”

The old lady must have an idea of what happened to the Lin Family these days. She used to be a leader of the family, and had her own ways to gain information. She knew that it was Qin Sheng who made it, but was not sure how far he would go. Qin Sheng believed that he should give the old lady a say here, no matter whether the old lady would blame him. He just should.

“Thank you for understanding, Grandmother. Anyway, the Lin Family is Susu’s family. I won’t go that far.” Qin Sheng said with an honest voice.

The old lady was satisfied with his attitude. “Then, I won’t mind. I don’t know what happened to you and don’t care that. The only thing I care about is that you should always be good to Susu. She had suffered so much over the past years. She’s the only person I care.”

“Oh, Grandmother,” Lin Su gave her grandmother a tight hug.

Qin Sheng said firmly, “Grandmother, you can trust me, I’ll never ever hurt Susu for the rest of my life. No matter what might happen to me in the future, being rich or poor, I’ll always be good to her, protect her.”

“Fine, I trust you.” The old lady nodded slowly.

Then she held Lin Su’s hand and Qin Sheng’s, and said in a quite serious tone, “From now on, I shift my responsibility to protect Susu to you, and wish you together till the end.”

“Grandmother—” Lin Su exploded and erupted with tears, embracing her grandmother tightly.

Qin Sheng was also moved by their love. The old lady really cared about Susu...

Qin Sheng left the hall then, giving them some time to have a private conversation. He was not sure when they would come back next time. Moreover, Lin Su’s feelings toward her family were fading.

Qin Sheng went out of the wing building, lighting a smoke in the yard, with Chang Baji and Nan Gong following. He didn’t go back to the main building to embarrass the Lins any further. He just said, “I’m going back to Shanghai later. Thank you for accompanying me these days.”

“Hmph, I thought you’d forgotten us.” Nan Gong whined. She was a bit wayward now since there were no other people.

An idea hit Qin Sheng. “Nan Gong, have you ever had feelings for someone?”

“Why do you ask me this?” Nan Gong frowned; she thought it her privacy and didn’t like it when people asked.

Qin Sheng just sighed and thought about his own things. “I mean, if you do, just go for it. Never care too much about the possible difficulties and barriers, and never ever give up. Romance is quite important to life.”

“Well.” Though Nan Gong felt nothing but dull for Qin Sheng’s sincere words.

Qin Sheng just smoked and offered a profound smile, saying nothing more. He recalled what Lin Su and he had experienced during those difficult times. No one believed that they could make it, but they did. If one of them had ever felt hard and withdrawn a little, they would have broken up.

Maybe this was destiny. It was destiny that made them together forever.

Half an hour later, Lin Su went out of the wing building. She had talked a lot to her grandmother, and was urged to have mutual understanding and caring by her grandmother. Finally, she reluctantly left.

“All good?” Qin Sheng smiled.

“Mn.” So did Lin Su.

“Let’s go pack your luggage. We’re going back to Shanghai then.” Qin Sheng smiled at Lin Su.

About 10 minutes later, Qin Sheng and Lin Su pulled out two luggage cases back to the yard. Nan Gong and Chang Baji put them into the car trunk.

Qin Sheng gave Lin Su a look. “Go say goodbye to them?”

Lin Su didn’t reject Qin Sheng’s suggestion, after all, the Lins were her families.

People in the living room were still waiting for Qin Sheng and Lin Su, and didn’t dare to leave no matter how impatient they were. Yu Ying was still acting to slap herself, with her face having bumps, and mouth bleeding, but she was feeble.

Qin Sheng asked her to stop and then turned to the Lin Brothers. “Uncles Lin, I’m done. Susu and I are going to Shanghai now. We’re here to say goodbye. Do you have anything to say to us?”

They felt quite relieved then and didn’t want to say anything else at all, just hoping Qin Sheng, the Satan, to leave as soon as possible. Finally, Lin Changting couldn’t help but say, “Qin Sheng, take care of Susu.”

“I will.” Qin Sheng eyed Lin Changting calmly, feeling that Lin Changting was both miserable and pathetic.

Lin Yue rushed over to Lin Su and said, “Sister, be safe. I’ll go to Shanghai for you later.”

“Mn, so do you.” Lin Su finally let out a smile.

As for the others of the Lins, Lin Su didn’t have much to say. She just nodded as a farewell, and didn’t quite care about their feelings.

It’s time to leave, and Qin Sheng pulled Lin Su to go. They took a few steps and stopped. Qin Sheng looked back to Lin Changhe and said, “Second Uncle Lin, don’t forget that thing.”

“Fine, I won’t.” Lin Changhe offered a bitter smile, whilst the rest of the Lins had no idea of what they’re talking about.

A few minutes later, Qin Sheng and Lin Su got on the car, leaving. Half an hour later, they left the Marriott Hotel for Shanghai. The story of the Lin Family came to an end.

Goodbye, Ningbo. Goodbye, the Lin Family.
