"I apparently inherited a nearly bankrupt bookstore!" Lin Xi stared intently at the dusty old bookstore, while his assistant looked utterly confused. Was the boss losing his mind? Even hand...
"Li Wei, I hope you cherish your life and don't disappoint me." Lin Xi smiled coldly, then turned and walked into the villa.
Seeing Lin Xi enter the villa, Li Wei took a deep breath, enduring his bruises, and struggled to walk out the door.
Shortly after, he got into a car and quickly disappeared into the street.
At this moment, Li Wei was covered in blood.
His body was covered in knife and gunshot wounds, clearly indicating that he had suffered a severe injury and would be difficult to recover from in the short term.
Even so, his heart was still filled with hatred.
"Lin Xi, one day I will make you pay for your crimes in blood!"
Li Wei made a silent vow in his heart.
Although he is now a cripple, he firmly believes that one day he will make Lin Xisheng wish he were dead!
"Lin Xi, I will make sure you are reduced to ashes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a chilling glint flashed in his eyes.
Lin Xi, you just wait and see!
"Young Master Lin, where are we going now?" the driver asked Lin Xi, turning to him.
"Go to the hospital," Lin Xi replied coldly.
"Yes, Young Master Lin." The driver nodded respectfully and drove quickly towards the hospital.
...
"Young Master Lin, how did you get so badly injured? I'll arrange a doctor for you right away," a middle-aged woman said with concern as she looked at Lin Xi on the hospital bed.
She is Chen Li, the chairman of Huasheng Group, who previously collaborated with Lin Xi.
"No need, I can be discharged now, I'm fine." Lin Xi waved her hand, her tone indifferent.
“Well… alright, in that case, you rest first, I’ll go and handle the discharge procedures,” Chen Li nodded in agreement.
"Mm." Lin Xi nodded and said nothing more.
A moment later, Chen Li completed all the formalities.
After completing the formalities, she approached the ward and gently knocked on the door.
"Please come in," Lin Xi's voice came from inside the room.
"Young Master Lin, everything has been arranged. I'll see you off." Chen Li opened the door and smiled.
"No need to trouble yourself, I can manage on my own," Lin Xi said, slowly getting out of bed and walking towards the door.
Seeing this, Chen Li hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself, afraid of angering Lin Xi, so she chose to remain silent and followed him out the door.
The two went downstairs together.
“Young Master Lin, although your injury is not serious, it is still a knife wound, so you need to be careful. It’s best not to go out for a while.” Chen Li said with concern as she walked to the car. “Yes, I understand.” Lin Xi nodded slightly, then opened the car door and got in.
Seeing this, Chen Li could only sigh and get into the car.
The car drove for a while and then entered the city.
Looking at the familiar buildings outside the window, a trace of reminiscence crossed Lin Xi's face.
This place was where he grew up, but now it's just an empty shell.
It seems that the world is indeed cruel.
"Aunt Chen, go to a hotel in the city center and book the best suite. I have something to tell you," Lin Xi said, turning to Chen Li.
"Yes, Young Master Lin."
Upon hearing this, Chen Li's face showed a hint of confusion, but she didn't ask any further questions and simply did as she was told.
Then, Lin Xi closed her eyes to rest.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a luxury hotel.
Lin Xi looked around at the lavish decorations, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her.
"Heh." Lin Xi sneered and got out of the car.
Welcome!
Chen Li then led Lin Xi into the hotel.
...
Night falls and the city lights come on.
A person stands alone on the top floor of the hotel, gazing into the distance, lost in thought.
Are you telling the truth?
After a long while, Lin Xi finally looked away and whispered.
"Of course!"
A middle-aged man emerged from the shadows, nodded to Lin Xi, and answered earnestly.
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Lin Xi's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.
"You're not lying to me, are you?" Lin Xi said coldly.
He couldn't believe that such a coincidence could happen to him!
He clearly saw Lin Haoyu at the hospital entrance.
But instead of dying, the man beat him so badly that he almost lost his life!
What surprised Lin Xi the most was that his mother had actually found a master to heal him, which made him feel like he was in a dream.
"Young Master Lin, you are my savior, how could I deceive you? Everything I said is true!"
"Besides, you are safe and sound now, why would I lie to you?" the middle-aged man replied sincerely.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi chose to remain silent.
His injuries have now largely healed.
That opponent was indeed a top-tier expert.
Even so, his injuries had not recovered to even half of his peak strength. Not to mention, he was unable to use his true energy.
"Young Master Lin, how about this? We can sign a cooperation agreement immediately, and then I will send people to protect you so that you can continue to develop in China. What do you think?" Seeing Lin Xi deep in thought, the middle-aged man made another suggestion.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
Then, he picked up the pen on the table, signed the document, and handed it to the other party.
The middle-aged man quickly took the document, and upon seeing Lin Xi's signed name, he breathed a sigh of relief and then handed the document back to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi did not refuse and began reading immediately.
"I've already signed this agreement. Go back and tell Aunt Chen that I owe her a favor this time," Lin Xi said to the middle-aged man after reading it.
The middle-aged man quickly bowed and agreed.
He then turned and drove away, disappearing from sight.
"Hmph! Don't be too smug. I'll become stronger sooner or later and crush you under my feet!" Lin Xi sneered to himself.
He had made up his mind that he would get rid of Chen Li and Lin Haoyu as soon as he had the chance!
He not only wants to eliminate them, but also to deal with Lin Yun and Lin Haiyang. He wants revenge and to trample them all under his feet!
"Are you Lin Xi?"
At that moment, a chilling voice rang in Lin Xi's ears.
Lin Xi looked up and saw a man dressed in black standing proudly with his hands behind his back, looking down at him.
"Who are you?" Lin Xi asked, frowning.
"You don't need to know who I am. Now I'm telling you, you have no chance of survival because... you must die!" The man said slowly, a wicked smile playing on his lips.
"You are... Lin Haoyu?" Upon hearing this, Lin Xi's pupils contracted sharply, and she stared coldly at Lin Haoyu.
"Heh, it's me." Lin Haoyu said coldly, "But I have to tell you, you're dead!"
"I will never let you get away with this!" Lin Xi gritted her teeth. "You bastards! You all deserve to die!"
Upon hearing this, a mocking smile flashed in Lin Haoyu's eyes.
"Since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!"
After saying that, Lin Haoyu approached Lin Xi step by step.
