Chapter 210 The moment she understood him, he shattered.

While he was still thinking, she spoke again.

She said, "Simply gambling with your life is too boring. I think Young Master Lin has gambled like this many times before, so let's add some additional conditions."

Just as he was thinking that she was nothing special, she had already stated her additional conditions—

"It's a gamble on whether someone is willing to die for another person without expecting anything in return, from the bottom of their heart, and regardless of everything."

This defines the purity of the gambling game.

At that time, he didn't know her plans. He just thought it was easy. His subordinates had followed him for so many years, and they all had their lives on their hands. They would definitely do it.

So he said, "Okay."

Then he saw her smile, her eyes sweeping over the faces of those under his hands.

That's good.

She said, "That's why it's stipulated that after this person takes action, Young Master Lin, you can't give him any compensation whatsoever."

“Nothing is acceptable, including giving his family money or promising to take care of them.”

Before he could figure out her intentions, she acted again.

Shi Nian looked at the people present and said, "Young Master Lin, I'm using my life to save A-Zhi. Young Master Lin, whose life are you using?"

“In short,” she said, turning her gaze to him, “Young Master Lin, who would be willing to die for you without asking for anything in return?”

Instantly, he frowned and glanced back at his men.

Then he saw hesitation and fear in their eyes.

Looking at the woman in front of me, she still had a smiling face.

This angered him, and he stood up from the recliner, quickly approached her, and pressed the muzzle of his gun against her head.

"Don't worry about who I'm taking my place. Didn't you say you were taking Lu Yanzhi's place? Do you need me to help you out? I'll shoot you right now and send you to meet your God."

Anyway, he didn't intend to keep the agreement, so shooting her a little earlier wouldn't be a problem; he'd killed quite a few people over the years.

But she was smiling.

He smiled, but his eyes held a hint of pity.

Yes, that was blatant pity!

Pity for him, Lin Xuan.

"Lin Xuan," she called him by his full name.

"Before you came to Country F, your deeds had already spread all over the world."

"Many people say you are capricious and that your hands are stained with blood, but I think you are an extremely pathetic person."

Enraged, Lin Xuan pressed the gun against her head even harder.

But she didn't seem afraid of this emotion.

"I feel like you've been playing pranks all along."

She laughed, "But these pranks are very bloody and scary."

"I don't know what you've lost, or what kind of inner turmoil you're going through."

"But I can see that your so-called carefree attitude and mood swings are just a way to find something, or someone, to fill the void in your heart."

"I call this feeling incompetence."

"I want to protect some people, but I am powerless; I want to fight for some things, but I can't; I want someone to be wholeheartedly for me, but there are always too many things mixed in their eyes when they look at me."

"So you start looking for ways to vent your feelings through pranks."

Lin Xuan still remembers how angry he was back then.

At that moment, he almost pulled the trigger and killed her. In fact, he had already made some moves, and it was just a little bit more than that the bullet would have been fired and blown the woman's head off.

She saw right through his hidden feelings.

She even felt sorry for him.

But he didn't want to admit it, so he grinned maliciously and said in an extremely sarcastic tone, "What's the point of saying all this? And what can you do now?"

"You know perfectly well that even if I blew your head off today, that contract probably still wouldn't be signed. Aren't you incompetent?"

"Hahaha!"

He suddenly burst into laughter, looking at her sarcastically: "After saying all that, aren't you just afraid of dying?"

"Beg me, Shi Nian, beg me to spare your life and let you slink back to the country with Lu Yanzhi!"

But she didn't beg him.

She didn't even refute it.

She admitted it very naturally.

“Yes, I am powerless,” she said. “It is because I have experienced that powerlessness firsthand that I understand how you feel right now.”

"Complete understanding".

She looked at him, her eyes slightly red, but she was smiling.

Just one look from her was enough to convince him that she truly understood.

This was the first time in his life that he had experienced such a feeling.

It seemed that something shattered the moment she came to understand him.

“But Lin Xuan, I’m luckier than you,” she said. “I have a lover who is devoted to me wholeheartedly.”

"Him?" Lin Xuan was referring to Lu Yanzhi.

"Yes." Her words were very firm, both in her eyes and in her heart.

“He saved my life,” she said. “He saved me when I was on the verge of death, and he gave me strength when I was weak.”

The most beautiful words he ever said to me were not "I love you," but rather, "You are part of my life plan."

“Lin Xuan, if you held a gun to his head today and asked him if he was willing to die for me, I believe he would say yes without hesitation.”

"And, Lin Xuan, what I want to tell you is," she said with a smile, "that if you have someone you want to protect, then do your best to do so, even if you can't. If you want something, then try your best to get it. Impotent rage is useless."

She paused slightly and said, "This is my personal experience."

Without thinking, he blurted out, "What if I still can't do it?"

She smiled gently: "You can do it."

"As long as you're ruthless enough to yourself."

Her words were like a powerful stimulant, a sudden enlightenment.

It's like a psychological suggestion, telling him that he can do it.

Before he could say anything more, she smiled at him again.

"I remember the bet you made with me, a bet of life and death, Lin Xuan, I bet I'll win."

Before he could understand what she meant, she had already leaped into the ice pool next to her.

Lin Xuan still remembers standing there blankly, completely unable to react.

His mind felt like it was exploding.

You can do it.

"As long as you're ruthless enough to yourself."

She showed him what that meant through her actions.

The icy pool in late autumn is extremely cold; staying there for a while will cause hypothermia, and one will freeze to death in no time.

Even if they don't die, they will fall seriously ill.

But that wasn't all. While she was in the pool, her lips turning purple from the cold and her face contorted in pain, blood suddenly began to flow out.

At that moment, he was still wondering why there was blood.

She had no wounds, and none of them fired a shot.

I was still wondering if the ice had scratched her skin.

She seemed surprised by the presence of blood, but then she seemed to understand.
