Chapter 504: Different Paths

Qin Xiangnuan also understood how difficult it was to change a person's inherent thinking. This could only be influenced overnight, and it could not be explained in just a few words.

"You are you first, and Jiang Lin's secret guard second." Qin Xiangnuan knew that this sentence overturned An Feng's previous belief.

The An Fengs have always been arranged in the opposite order of what Qin Xiangnuan said. Shouldn't the An Wei have first obtained the identity given by Jiang Lin, and then the people who came after him?

"Your life is important, too." Qin Xiangnuan said, "Anfeng, given the choice, Jiang Lin will never allow someone else's life to be exchanged for his own."

An Feng thought about what Qin Xiangnuan said last, turned his head to glance at his lost left arm, and then fell into deep thought.

Undercurrent was very efficient, and Jiang Lin and the Ninth Prince met on the second day.

"Prince Jiang is so courageous, I admire him very much." The Ninth Prince said to Jiang Lin nonchalantly with a smile on his face.

Jiang Lin looked at the stranger in front of him. The smile on his face made Jiang Lin feel a little annoyed.

"Prince Jiang has probably already forgotten me, right?" The Ninth Prince, not having heard him speak, said self-deprecatingly, "That's not surprising. After all, I've been dead for a long time. Who would even remember me?"

"What do you want to do?" Jiang Lin didn't want to listen to him and asked straight to the point.

"I just want to take back what belongs to me." The Ninth Prince said with a frown, but there was still a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

"You..." Jiang Lin was about to hear the car sound.

The Ninth Prince suddenly burst into laughter, causing Jiang Lin to frown.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Lin asked coldly.

The Ninth Prince smiled happily, not hiding his pity for Jiang Lin, and said to Jiang Lin, "You won't believe what I said, will you?"

Jiang Lin's eyes darkened, but the Ninth Prince didn't care at all.

"Jiang Lin, don't be silly." The Ninth Prince stopped smiling and sneered, "There's nothing in this entire palace that belongs to you and me. We're just the emperor's little toys."

Jiang Lin narrowed his eyes, feeling strange about the "we" mentioned by the Ninth Prince.

"Don't be surprised," the Ninth Prince said. "I only found out about it later. I found it very interesting, and I really wanted to ask you about it."

The Ninth Prince straightened his expression and looked at Jiang Lin with blinking eyes.

Jiang Lin intuitively knew he wouldn't hear anything pleasant from the other person, but at this moment he could only say one word to him, "Ask."

The Ninth Prince was also not polite and spoke directly, "Since you knew that you were the emperor's abandoned son, have you ever thought about fighting for the throne? If you do, I don't mind helping you."

Jiang Lin's expression became serious, and he stared closely at the Ninth Prince. This man seemed to be a little crazy.

"I don't want it." Jiang Lin directly rejected his words. He did not refute his identity because the Ninth Prince dared to say so, he must have found out something.

Jiang Lin didn't have to go through any futile efforts to prove himself.

However, the Ninth Prince did not believe his words. If Jiang Lin did not want that position, why would he have planned carefully for so long?

"Jiang Lin, I believe you know my strength. If we work together, we can accomplish anything you want within a year.

"I don't need you!" Jiang Lin said coldly.

The Ninth Prince was stunned for a moment, and then his aura turned cold. "Jiang Lin, don't be ungrateful, or you will end up like Gu Mingqi."

Jiang Lin sneered at the Ninth Prince's threat, "Then try it."

The Ninth Prince suddenly smiled, his smile was cold and greasy, "Just don't come begging me in the end."

"You're delusional." Jiang Lin said.

"I'm waiting for the day when you come to beg me." The Ninth Prince was still smiling, and his gaze at Jiang Lin made people feel annoyed.

"Ninth Prince, there's no need for us to be on edge here." Jiang Lin resisted the urge to turn around and leave. He really wanted to have a good talk with him.

However, the Ninth Prince did not think so. At this moment, his face was full of contempt for Jiang Lin. He thought that the other party had no ambition and was willing to survive as an ant.

"Jiang Lin, I thought that even if we couldn't become colleagues, we would still be equal opponents. Today's opinion has greatly disappointed me." The Ninth Prince seemed full of regret.

"Ninth Prince." Jiang Lin didn't care about the sarcasm in his words. "If you want the throne, just go ahead and take it. But you can't stand on that high position while stepping on the lives of the people."

After hearing this, the Ninth Prince's eyes changed when he looked at Jiang Lin, but the sarcasm in his eyes did not diminish.

"Jiang Lin, why are you pretending to be a kind person here?" The Ninth Prince smiled playfully.

Jiang Lin's eyes turned dark and unclear. "No matter who I am, I won't stand by and watch Hu Lai."

"Do you think you can stop me?" The Ninth Prince sneered. "Jiang Lin, what do you think will happen to you if I tell him about your secret return to the capital right now?"

Jiang Lin's eyelids twitched imperceptibly, and he bit his tongue and uttered, "You can go and give it a try."

The Ninth Prince laughed cheerfully and spoke to Jiang Lin, emphasizing each word, "Don't worry, I'm not that kind. I'll keep him in the dark for now. When I'm most hopeful that you'll come to his rescue, I'll tell him everything you've done."

Now the Ninth Prince does not want to take the Emperor's life out of hand. He wants to torture the man who is a father but does not do what a father should do, bit by bit.

The Ninth Prince wants to let him gain a little hope in despair, and finally, when he thinks he has grasped that hope, the Ninth Prince will personally extinguish that hope.

In this way, the Ninth Prince would feel relieved when he could sense the other person's pain.

But the Ninth Prince didn't care about what happened afterwards. He didn't want the throne, so that's why he invited Jiang Lin in the first place. If he wanted it, it would be fine to give it to him.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Lin rejected him directly, so the Ninth Prince's thoughts naturally changed a little.

After parting ways with the Ninth Prince on bad terms, Jiang Lin returned to his residence with a dark complexion. No one else bothered to frown at him, and Qin Xiangnuan was no exception.

"Miss Qin, I think there is something wrong with this Ninth Prince." Anliu whispered secretly to Qin Xiangnuan.

Qin Xiangnuan turned her head and saw Anliu pointing at her head, without commenting on what he said.

"Ms. Qin, please don't disbelieve it." Anliu saw that Qin Xiangnuan didn't respond, and repeated it to her anxiously.

"I haven't met him, so I can't jump to conclusions." Qin Xiangnuan said seriously.

However, after seeing how Jiang Lin became like this after meeting the Ninth Prince, Qin Xiangnuan agreed with Anliu's conclusion in her heart.

"Ms. Qin." Anliu looked at Qin Xiangnuan disapprovingly, and wanted to continue to talk about some evidence he had guessed.

But Qin Xiangnuan waved her hand and told him to stop talking, saying that the Ninth Prince would definitely attack them later, so Qin Xiangnuan told him to be on guard first.
