"Lin Hong, didn't you call me when you were in prison and say you had something to tell me?" Lin Jiu lowered his hood and looked down at Lin Hong who was tied to a broken chair.

"Really? I had forgotten about this." Lin Hong lowered his head and no longer looked at Lin Jiu.

"Let me help you recall it." Lin Jiu handed a pair of car keys to Lin Hong.

"What do you want to do?" Lin Hong narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Jiu vigilantly.

"Give you freedom. Didn't Lin Yao arrange for you to be released on medical parole for one year? Oh no, she is Gu Yao now.

I can get you out of here.

Drive south. There is a Lingyin Temple on the mountain at the end of the road. I have already agreed with the abbot that you can stay there to atone for your sins."

"Lin Jiu, are you crazy? You want to be a monk? How is that possible?" Lin Hong was very emotional and yelled at Lin Jiu with his neck tilted back.

Lin Jiu patted Lin Hong's shoulder, leaned over and whispered in his ear,

"In seven days, you will get a new identity and a sum of money, enough for you to leave Xia Country and start a new life. You know exactly what I want to know."

"I'm also very clear that now I'm the only one who knows this. I called you to negotiate terms with you. I don't care how you take over the Lin Group, but I want all the money the Lin Group had before."

"Then there's nothing to talk about." Lin Jiu stood up with a look of regret and prepared to leave.

Just then, hurried footsteps were heard in the corridor.

Lin Jiu turned off the door and lights in the basement, and the place fell into darkness again.

Bang!

The door was kicked open.

"Damn, it's so dark, where's the light?" The two thugs came in in the dark and took a long time to find the light.

They walked up to Lin Hong carrying several plastic bags, grabbed his hair and made him look up.

"Lin Hong, Miss Gu is asking you one last time, what are you going to say to Lin Jiu?"

Lin Jiu, who was hiding in the corner, raised his eyebrows slightly. It turned out that Lin Yao brought Lin Hong here for the same purpose as hers.

"You won't tell me, right? I'll let you be stubborn, damn it!"

The thugs pried open Lin Hong's mouth, stuffed a funnel into his mouth, and then tore open the chili water bag.

The smell of chili pepper instantly filled the entire basement, and the other gangster choked and sneezed twice in a row.

Lin Hong shrank back in fear, and the thug held him down, "Don't worry, it's just pepper spray."

The gangster picked up the bag and poured the pepper water into Lin Hong's stomach.

Lin Hong's face turned red the moment he was touched by the spiciness, and tears started streaming down his face.

puff--

Lin Hong sprayed the pepper spray all over the floor.

The chair fell to the ground with him, and Lin Hong coughed violently with his face pressed against the ground.

The pungent smell made the gangsters nauseous.

"That's disgusting, more cans!"

The thugs lifted up the chair and Lin Hong and stuffed the funnel into his mouth again, this time, both bags at once.

Lin Hong's eyes were red from the spicy food, and his eyes were wide open, as if his eyeballs were about to pop out.

As soon as he shouted, pepper spray poured into his nasal cavity and flowed out of his nostrils.

Snot, tears, and chili water were all over his face and body. The burning pain made Lin Hong feel like he would rather die than live.

He stretched out his hands and struggled desperately, but the thugs held him firmly on the chair.

He could only try his best to spray pepper spray, which splashed all over the thugs, but it was unable to stop them from continuing to pour pepper spray.

At this time, Lin Jiu walked quietly behind the two thugs.

She crossed her arms and watched Lin Hong struggling desperately.

She was waiting for Lin Hong to make up his mind to tell her the secret of his life.

When Lin Hong nodded vigorously at Lin Jiu.

She immediately raised her hand and knocked the two thugs unconscious.

At this time, Lin Hong had been tortured to the point that veins on his neck were exposed, his face was covered with muscles, and he looked no longer like a human.

Lin Jiu untied the ropes on him, and he collapsed to the ground. He kept spitting out a liquid that looked like pepper spray or blood. He opened his mouth weakly and said, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

Lin Hong slowly raised his head and looked at Lin Jiu, blood filling his teeth. "I've seen him before. You and he have very similar eyes."
