It was autumn, and the quiet campus seemed to have felt the autumn in advance. The yellow leaves on the streets fluttered in the wind, rubbing against the ground and making rustling sounds. It was class time, so the entire campus was very quiet. The only sound on the entire street was Lin Qing and Ouyang Wanwan's footsteps, accompanied by the rustling of leaves.
"Autumn is here! Lin Qing, do you know? " For us musicians, autumn is a season full of inspiration." Ouyang Wanwan reached out her small hand to catch the falling leaves in front of her. It was as if she had many feelings. At this moment, she seemed very quiet. It was a kind of inner peace that could be felt by the surroundings.
"Yes, I am!" " Yes!" Lin Qing answered. He bent down to pick up the fallen leaves under his feet and twirled the leaf stalk between his fingers." Autumn always makes people inexplicably sad. Perhaps this kind of weather can trigger memories deep in one's heart!"”At this moment, he recalled the scene of the old man standing under the maple tree in the courtyard and sighing. The old man was probably sighing about his past glory and downfall!
"Hehe, Lin Qing, you look like an old man now!”Ouyang Wanwan couldn't help but chuckle when she saw Lin Qing frowning at the fallen leaf in his hand.
"How could that be? I'm so young, how can I compare to an old man!”
"Hehe, you don't know how old you looked just now. Only an old man who has experienced countless hardships would give off such a feeling.”
"Is that so? Hehe, maybe I've also experienced hardships!”Lin Qing didn't comment. Maturity wasn't a privilege of the elderly, but how much they could learn from their experiences. It wasn't uncommon for people to spend their whole lives together.
"Hehe, alright! I admit that you have also experienced hardships, okay? Master Lin!" After saying that, he couldn't help but laugh. Being with Lin Qing always made him laugh without any scruples.
"Wanwan, my good granddaughter! Grandpa will love you!"
Lin Qing shamelessly stretched out his hands and walked over to hug her. Ouyang Wanwan blushed and avoided him. The empty street was filled with the laughter of two people, accompanied by the dancing autumn leaves falling from the stage.
The Pavilion of Everlasting Regret. There was actually a small pavilion in the middle of the pool in Capital University. Of course, this was not the name of the Pavilion of Everlasting Regret. There were two lines written at the entrance of the pavilion by Qin Guan, a poet of the Song Dynasty: If the two feelings are long, how can they be in the morning and evening? Lin Qing and Ouyang Wanwan stood side by side at the entrance of the pavilion, looking at the two lines.
Lin Qing laughed." Hehe, it seems like the person who named the pavilion has a dispute over their relationship!”
"Nonsense! It was obvious that she was only separated from her lover, but they were very loving. How could there be any emotional disputes?”Ouyang Wanwan had some opinions. Women would always think of the most beautiful and romantic side when it came to love.
"You don't understand!" Lin Qing began to show off his limited knowledge and said with a smile,"Think about it! These two phrases meant that although two lovers were separated by two places, they still only loved each other! However, the pavilion was called the Pavilion of Everlasting Regret. In other words, the person who named the pavilion was filled with hatred for the person he liked. Didn't this mean that he had a relationship dispute?”
"You're being unreasonable. You can guess so many meanings from the name of the pavilion.”Ouyang Wanwan ignored Lin Qing's coquettish behavior and walked into the pavilion to find a stone chair to sit on.
Lin Qing smiled awkwardly and sat down across from her. He wondered why Zhou Yiping didn't come to see Wanwan today. He didn't know that she could be as free as a small bodyguard like him. Lin Qing thought about it and asked Wan Wan in front of him to understand a little.
"Wanwan, do you know what Zhou Yiping's family does?”Lin Qing tried his best to sound natural.
"What? Why did she want to know about him?”
"Didn't you grow up with him? You should know him very well!”
"I only treat him as my brother. There's nothing between us!”Seeing Lin Qing's half-smile, Ouyang Wanwan quickly explained.
"I didn't say anything about you two. Why are you in a hurry? I just wanted to hear about his family background.”Lin Qing was surprised by Ouyang Wanwan's uneasiness.
Sensing that Lin Qing didn't care much about her and Zhou Yiping's childhood friendship, Ouyang Wanwan smiled." Speak!" What do you want to know? I will answer you one by one!”
"Tell me what you know. The more detailed, the better.”
"So greedy!" Ouyang Wanwan stared at Lin Qing and said coquettishly. Then, she slowly began to speak.
Ever since I could remember, my dad has known Zhou Yiping's grandfather, Zhou Jianying. The age difference between the two of them was huge, but it didn't seem to affect their relationship. I especially remember my dad's evaluation of Grandpa Zhou: A hero should shout for this! In my memory, this is the highest evaluation my father has of people.
Grandpa Zhou wasn't just the current secretary of the municipal party committee. He also founded the Zhou Corporation. His Zhou Corporation was involved in various fields, including electronics, real estate, hotels, and so on. There were countless of them! I heard from my dad that he once had a son called Zhou Jianguo. This Uncle Zhou also has a lot of power in the Jingdu military district!
My dad said that Grandpa Zhou's son died in an accident during a mission. However, there was once when I went to the Zhou family to play with Zhou Yiping, I heard Grandpa Zhou talking about his son with another soldier in his room. He said that he could only be locked up there and so on. I don't remember clearly, but I think this Uncle Zhou shouldn't be dead.
The scariest thing is that my dad told me that Grandpa Zhou even formed a gang in the capital! It seemed to be called the Azure Dragon Gang. It was said that this gang was the most powerful gang in the capital. But I don't believe it. The capital is so peaceful. How can there be a triad? Moreover, Grandpa Zhou was the secretary of the municipal party committee. How could he form a gang! My dad must be joking with me.
As for Zhou Jianying! When I was young, I always called him brother because I didn't have many friends. He was the only one who was willing to play with me. Three years ago, he was sent to the University of Cambridge in England to study. He only returned recently, so he often came to look for me.
"What else do you want to know?" Ouyang Wanwan ended her speech with a smile.
"Hehe, I guess that's all you know. What else can you tell me?”At this moment, Lin Qing's heart was in turmoil. He didn't expect Ouyang Wanwan to know so many secrets. This information was definitely worth studying.
"Hehe, you've seen through me. That's all I know!”
"Hehe, you already know quite a bit. You actually know how to eavesdrop on an adult's conversation at such a young age. You're really bold!”
"Who asked them to be so mysterious? Of course I'm curious!”Ouyang Wanwan pouted like a little girl. Those who didn't know better would really think that she was acting coquettishly to her lover!
Lin Qing was about to tease her a little more when the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. He took it out and picked it up without looking at it. Other than Chu Xinru, no one else called him.
"Lin Qing, where did you go? Why aren't you at home? I have to attend a charity event in the afternoon. Hurry up and come back!”Chu Xinru's anxious voice came through the phone.
"I'm at school. Don't worry, I'll rush back immediately.”
After hanging up the phone, Lin Qing smiled bitterly. It seemed that the bodyguards were not that relaxed. "I'm sorry, Xinru has an event to attend in the afternoon. I have to go with her. See you next time!"
"You're leaving just like that? Did he forget what he had to do?”
"No!" Lin Qing thought for a moment and smiled. I came to school to see you! What can I forget?"
"Hmph, you have a phone now? Why didn't you ask for my number?"
"Hehe, I'm sorry. I was anxious! Here, you can deposit it yourself." Lin Qing smiled awkwardly and handed the phone over.
"Alright! You can leave! Hehe…"
Lin Qing took the phone and felt that Ouyang Wanwan's smile was very strange. After leaving the school gate, he took out his phone and looked at it. There was an additional name on the contact list: The housekeeper.
