Chapter 29 Lin San was very brave
Gu Changfeng was in a dilemma, handling Lin San would go against his conscience, but not handling him would also risk offending Qin Shenghan. Even with Gu Changfeng's many years of experience in the business world, he didn't know how to handle it for the time being.
"Former chairman, no matter what my son did, it's not right for the security guard to hit him. If you can't bear to deal with that little security guard, just let me handle it." Qin Sheng Han was furious when he saw his only son being beaten into a serious injury by a young security guard.
Gu Changfeng remained silent and did not express either opposition or agreement.
Gu Jialan stepped forward, blocking Lin San's path, and looked at the furious Qin Shenghan: "Uncle Qin, if you want to vent your anger, just find me."
"Jialan, stop messing around." His daughter stepped out to take responsibility, Gu Changfeng could no longer pretend to be mute.
Gu Jialan stood stubbornly in front of Lin San, ignoring Gu Changfeng's words.
Lin San gently pushed aside Gu Jialan and walked to Qin Shenghan: "This has nothing to do with Miss Gu, all of this is my responsibility. You can deal with me as you please."
"Lin San, step aside for me." Gu Jialan's face sank as she commanded.
Lin San stood still on the spot, quietly gazing at Qin Shenghan.
"Dad, we can't let this security guard off..." Qin Hao said with a pale face.
Qin Sheng Han's face was gloomy and terrifying, with flashes of murderous intent in his eyes from time to time. A lowly security guard dared to confront him, which was truly detestable.
Gu Changfeng frowned and glanced at Lin San, saying: "Lin San, aren't you going to apologize to Old Qin yet?"
Lin San Cong slightly bowed his head: "Sorry, Mr. Qin."
"Hmph, you hurt my precious son, can a simple apology just settle this?" Qin Sheng Han coldly snorted.
Lin San suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth, turned around and grabbed a wine bottle from the dinner table next to him, and violently smashed it against his own head.
"Crash!" The wine bottle shattered, and the wine splashed all over Lin San's entire head, faintly visible, with blood flowing down.
"Ah! Lin San! You're crazy!" Gu Jialan exclaimed.
Gu Changfeng was also stunned, his eyes fixed on Lin San were filled with astonishment.
Lin San threw away the half bottle of wine in his hand, picked up a few more bottles, and smashed them all on his own forehead. The shards of glass scattered all over the floor, the wine wetting Lin San's clothes, and fresh blood slowly trickled down his face, finally dripping onto the ground.
The whole hall was stunned, staring at Lin San's blood-covered face, with eyes full of incredulity.
Qin Sheng Han stared blankly at Lin San, his mouth slightly agape, his expression one of great surprise. He had not expected Lin San to take such action.
"Mr. Qin, if you're still not satisfied, I'll continue to hit my own head with this wine bottle." Lin San said in a hoarse voice.
"Lin San!" Gu Jialan came to, hastily grabbed a napkin from the table and pressed it against Lin San's forehead: "Lin San, why are you so stupid?!"
Lin San smiled and said: "I don't want to make things difficult for you."
"You're such an idiot." Gula couldn't think of anything else to say to Lin San, who was indeed too impulsive in his actions.
Gu Changfeng let out a gentle sigh and calmly looked at Qin Shenghan: "Boss Qin, my security guard has already apologized, I think this matter should be settled now."
"Dad, we can't let this little security guard off so easily..." Qin Hao shouted loudly.
Gu Changfeng furrowed his brow, twitched the corner of his mouth, but ultimately said nothing. He simply gazed quietly at Qin Shenghan, waiting for Qin's final decision.
Qin Sheng Han looked at Lin San deeply, nodded slightly: "You have guts, today I'll let it go because of Chairman Gu's face, the matter of you hurting my son will not be pursued."
"Dad, you can't be serious..." Upon hearing that Qin Shenghan was going to let Lin San off, Qin Hao immediately became anxious.
Qin Sheng Han's face sank: "Shut up, you good-for-nothing."
Qin Hao was still afraid of his father Qin Shenghan. When he saw Qin Shenghan get angry, he immediately shut his mouth tightly and didn't dare to speak again.
Qin Sheng Han beckoned two female waitresses over and had them help Qin Hao to the infirmary for treatment.
Qin Hao glared fiercely at Lin San before he left, his eyes filled with anger and resentment.
Lin San smiled and looked at Qin Hao, without a hint of fear in his eyes. In Lin San's opinion, Qin Hao was just a spoiled rich kid who relied on his parents to survive, not worth paying attention to.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for the disturbance caused by a slight misunderstanding. Now that the matter has been resolved, please continue with your entertainment." Qin Shenghan apologized repeatedly to the guests in the hall.
The people in the hall were all some dignitaries, of course, they wouldn't care too much about a small security guard's affairs, and soon they gathered together again to chat and drink.
Qin Sheng Han glanced at Lin San, let out a cold snort, and turned his head to leave.
Gu Changfeng walked up to Lin San and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Lin San shook his head: "Thank you, Chairman, for your concern. I'm fine, just a little skin broken on my head."
"I've troubled you today." Gu Changfeng patted Lin San's shoulder.
"Chairman, you mustn't say that, it's my own fault for getting into trouble, and receiving some punishment is also to be expected." Lin San hastily said.
"Not bad, you're really not bad."
"Thank you for your praise, Chairman," Lin San said gratefully.
"Lin San, you've lost a lot of blood, we need to bandage it quickly." Gu Jialan urged anxiously from the side.
"There is an infirmary on the cruise ship." Gu Changfeng reminded.
"I'll take you to the infirmary." Gu Jialan didn't say another word and supported Lin San as they walked out of the hall.
Gu Changfeng watched as Gu Jialan helped Lin San leave, then turned and walked towards Qin Shenghan, intending to have a good chat with him and see if he could untie this knot in his heart.
On deck.
Gujalan leaned against the railing, slightly tilting her head back, and enjoyed the gentle caress of the breeze.
Lin San and Li Cong stood quietly on one side with their heads wrapped in thick gauze.
Lin San's injury is not very serious, just a small cut on his forehead, apply some medicine and bandage it, he'll be fine.
Lin San smiled as he gazed at Gu Jialan's back, feeling very pleased. As long as he was with Gu Jialan, Lin San felt especially happy.
Li Cong stretched out his hand and gently poked Lin San.
Lin San turned around with a puzzled expression and asked softly: "What's wrong?"
Li Cong lowered his voice and asked: "Is your forehead injury okay?"
Lin San smiled: "It's nothing, just a small crack."
Li Cong patted Lin San on the back and gave a thumbs up: "Awesome! You were totally cool in the hall just now! You're simply my idol!"
"Alright, stop teasing me. I was also helpless and had no choice but to hit myself on the head with a wine bottle just now." Lin San said with a crooked mouth.
"Lin San, no matter what you say, you're very brave." Li Cong said with admiration: "If it were me, I would never dare to hit my own head with a wine bottle."
"You didn't see the look on Mr. Qin's face, he was determined to not let me off. If I don't sacrifice a bit of my self-interest, will Mr. Qin let me go?" Lin San said helplessly.
"That Qin fellow is obviously no good. He's clearly the one who let his son get away with being unreasonable, and yet he blames you for it. It's simply unfair." Li Cong said angrily.
"They are a wealthy family, of course they can do whatever they want." Lin San said.
"What's wrong with being a big shot? Can't they just do whatever they want and get away with it?" Li Cong said discontentedly.
Lin San let out a bitter laugh: "This world is quite realistic. The rules of society are still dictated by these wealthy elite."
"Miss Guo, the banquet is about to begin. Chairman Guo invites you to go to the hall." Zhou Tian walked over from one side.
Gujalan turned around and nodded slightly at Zhou Tian, then lifted his foot and walked towards the main hall.
Lin San and Li Cong hastily followed up.
It was already near dusk, the sky gradually darkened, after several hours of navigation, the cruise ship had entered the depths of the ocean, surrounded by endless sea water.
The hall was brightly lit, the dining table was filled with all kinds of food and expensive wine, and the corner played pleasant light music.
Gujalan led Lin San and Li Cong to a less crowded corner, quietly staring at the temporary high platform in front of them.
Lin San and Li Cong stood on either side of Gu Jialan, their faces stern, like two door gods.
Gu Jialan turned around and glanced at Lin San and Li Cong, saying in a warm voice: "You don't have to be so formal, if you want to eat something, there's food on the dining table."
"Thank you, Miss Gu." Li Cong had long been tempted by the sumptuous food on the table, but was too embarrassed to eat. Now that Gu Jialan had spoken up, Li Cong no longer held back and picked up a chicken leg with his hand, taking big bites of it.
Lin San didn't stand on ceremony either, picking up a banana and starting to eat it. Food that doesn't cost money is free food, so he might as well eat it since it's free anyway.
Gu Jialan poured a glass of red wine and slowly drank it, Gu Jialan had always been fond of red wine since childhood, especially high-end red wine. This hobby was probably influenced by Gu Changfeng, who was a wine connoisseur himself and collected many precious wines at home.
Gu Changfeng was standing next to a temporarily built high platform, chatting happily with several middle-aged men who had a lot of demeanor.
Qin Sheng Han is not in the hall, Qin Hao's lower back injury is still lying in the rest room, and it is estimated that he will not come out to attend the banquet.
"Wow wow wow......" The hall suddenly erupted in a warm applause.
Lin San looked up in confusion and found Qin Shenghan walking slowly into the room, surrounded by a group of people, and making his way to the front platform. At this time, Qin Shenghan was wearing a black suit, his hair combed neatly and shining, and he looked much more spirited than before.
As soon as Qin Shenghan stepped onto the high platform, the applause in the hall never stopped. Today is Qin Shenghan's birthday, and the atmosphere must be lively.
Qin Sheng Han smiled and waved his hand at everyone: "Everyone be quiet for a moment, let me say two sentences."
When Qin Shenghan was about to speak, the guests in the hall instinctively put down their hands and closed their mouths. Suddenly, the hall became unusually quiet.
Qin Sheng Han nodded in satisfaction, the guests he had invited were still giving him face. Qin Sheng Han cleared his throat and began his long-prepared speech.
