Qiao Wanwan hurriedly stepped in front of Xu Lai, "You can't kill her!"

"If it weren't for her, would He Songling have betrayed me?" Lin Feng's sinister eyes, like a venomous snake, fixed on He Songling's face. "Since you love her so much, of course I want you to watch her die with your own eyes..."

“If anyone should die, it should be me!” He Songling stepped forward. “Lin Feng, my life was given to me by your brother. When you came to me, I agreed to help you avenge your brother without hesitation. This is my way of repaying him.”

“In my heart, Lai Lai is just as important as your brother, which is why I withdrew halfway through. But I never betrayed you, because betraying you would be the same as betraying your brother.”

"You think I'd believe your nonsense?" Lin Feng clearly didn't believe him. "He Songling, the thing I hate most in my life is being abandoned!"

"Since you don't believe me, then I beg you, please promise me, for your brother's sake, to let her go. If you need someone to die to vent your anger, then kill me!"

Lin Feng scoffed, "I didn't realize you were so devoted."

“Your brother always told me that I’m the same kind of person as him. I didn’t think so before, but later I realized that maybe he was right. We are the same in our persistence in love.” He Songling grasped his wrist and pointed the gun at his forehead. “Trading my life for Xu Lai’s life is not a loss for you.”

Lin Feng sneered, took two steps forward, and shoved Qiao Wanwan aside. The next second, a loud "bang" rang out!

Xu Lai was shot and fell to the ground, blood gushing from his chest instantly!

"Xu Lai!"

"Lai Lai!"

He Songling rushed forward, knelt beside Xu Lai, and was heartbroken!

Lin Feng looked down at him condescendingly, "Since you resemble my brother so much, I'll treat you like my brother. The biggest weakness of both of you is being seduced by women, so I'm going to help you put an end to this."

"You're absolutely heartless!" Qiao Wanwan looked at him. "Xu Lai is innocent!"

"Isn't my brother innocent?" Lin Feng turned to look at her. "Qiao Wanwan, if it weren't for you, he wouldn't have died. He was so outstanding; his life should have been incredibly brilliant, but it was ruined by you. Don't you feel even a little bit guilty towards him?"

Qiao Wanwan said coldly, "No matter how clearly I explain it to you, you won't listen, because you have no concept of right and wrong."

"Life is meaningless anyway, what's the point of distinguishing right from wrong so clearly?" Lin Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Qiao Wanwan, letting you die like this is too easy for you..."

“I know you want my whole family to die with Lin Mo, but that’s impossible. If you kill me, you won’t live either; we’ll both perish.” Qiao Wanwan looked at him. “Lin Mo and I used to be friends. Why would I want him to die? I also believe that if he could see all this, he wouldn’t want you to go down this path of no return.”

"Stop talking nonsense!" Lin Feng roared. "Qiao Wanwan, do you think I'm afraid of death? Fine, let's die together now, and I'll take you to my brother to apologize to him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his gun and pointed it at Qiao Wanwan!

"Wait a minute!" A voice suddenly came from the doorway.

Lin Feng stared intently, then froze.

The people who came in were Lin Mo's parents, who were also Lin Feng's parents.

"My child..." Lin's mother cried, tears streaming down her face, "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I really didn't know you existed..."

"What are you doing here?" Lin Feng suddenly realized and shouted, "Zhan Jingting sent you! Where is Zhan Jingting! Zhan Jingting, come out and face your death! You're a man, sending your wife to her death, are you even human?!"

"Jingting, don't fall for his trick! He's trying to provoke you!" Qiao Wanwan shouted urgently. "If you come, he'll kill us both and leave our child an orphan!"

"Hahahaha..." Lin Feng burst into wild laughter, "Yes, making your children orphans and subjecting them to the pain I went through, that would be truly satisfying, hahahahaha..."

"Master Zhan didn't come." Lin's father wiped away his tears. "My child, you've suffered."

"I've never blamed you," Lin Feng said calmly. "After all, you genuinely didn't know I existed. The one who deserved to die was that old man; it's just a pity I couldn't kill him with my own hands..."

"Child, let bygones be bygones." Lin's mother slowly walked towards him. "Come home with your father and mother."

"Don't come any closer!" Lin Feng took two steps back. "Just because I don't blame you doesn't mean I'm willing to accept this. The Lin family treats me like a jinx, why would I go back?"

"You were born after ten months of my pregnancy, you're not a jinx!" Lin's mother cried. "I know you offended Master Zhan, but it's alright. I'll take responsibility for your sins and let you live a good life. My child, you're our only family left in this world. I beg you, please stop. It might not be too late to stop now..."

“From the day my brother died, the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do is take revenge. I’ve been unable to stop for a long time.” Lin Feng smiled bitterly and said, “Moreover, revenge is my only motivation to live. If I stop now, I really don’t know how I would go on living.”

"How could that be?" Lin's mother hurriedly said, "Although your father and I are not very capable, the Lin family still has a lot of wealth. We have enough money for you to live on for a lifetime. After you come home, you can do what you are interested in and start your life properly. Child, your life should not be trapped by the word 'revenge'."

“Your brother is my son. I know him. He wouldn’t want you to do this. He secretly helped you when he found you, not because he wanted you to take your own life.”

"Really...?" Lin Feng was a little skeptical. "My brother never told me what I should or shouldn't do. He just told me to follow my heart. In my heart, there's only one thing: to avenge him..."

"Trust your mother, let go of your hatred, and you'll find that this world is vast, and there are many beautiful things in it," Lin's mother cried. "My child, you've suffered for over twenty years, that's enough. It's time to taste some sweetness in the rest of your life. Listen to your mother, put down the gun..."

Lin Feng stared at her blankly, "Zhan Jingting won't let me go, and he won't let you go either."

"Mom will atone for your sins, Mom will die for you, as long as you can live well, Mom will do anything!"

Lin Feng asked in disbelief, "Why?"

"Because you are my child," Lin's mother cried out. "Just thinking about all the suffering you've endured outside makes me want to kill myself. In the end, it's all my fault. I failed in my duty as a mother, I didn't protect you or take good care of you. I'm guilty, I'm the one who deserves to die!"
