Chapter 231 He is not as bad as you

The luxury yacht enjoyed only one night and arrived at the Rose Island, which had been abandoned for many years, at noon.

Ning Yan took Shi Ming off the boat and kept reminding him to follow her closely and to listen to her and not act impulsively if anything went wrong.

Shi Ming nodded and waved his hand. Ning Yan looked in shock at the dozen or so tall and strong bodyguards in black carrying guns who came out from behind.

One of them was still holding Shi Ming's suitcase of US dollars.

To say he wasn't surprised was true. Ning Yan looked at him in disbelief: "Where did you get so many bodyguards?"

"Rented."

“…”

"Ten thousand dollars a day."

It is true that there will always be brave men when there is a lot of money.

Who wouldn't want to come at this price?

It seems that he really underestimated Shi Ming. Not only did he know to prepare the ransom in advance, he also prepared bodyguards and thugs in case the negotiations failed.

A person like Shi Ming who is well-planned and intelligent would be very successful in business or anything else, even if he doesn't become a star.

Not to mention Gu Jiujing, Ning Yan also thinks he is super charming now.

"Leaving?"

Shi Ming turned around and calmly asked Ning Yan, who was still immersed in shock.

A group of people landed on the island.

The once beautiful island, after the fire and massacre, and more than ten years of abandonment, is now unrecognizable even to Ning Yan.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery around him, Ning Yan felt complicated and his brows were tightly furrowed.

He couldn't help but ask Shi Ming: "Why do you think K asked me to meet here?"

They all knew the answer.

Shi Ming asked him back: "Who do you think this K on the killer list is?"

Ning Yan stared at the abandoned rose garden, his tone calm, with a sense of relief that a heavy burden had been settled: "I think it might be 'Ning Yan'. I suspected it was him from the beginning."

Shi Ming looked at him.

Ning Yan suddenly smiled.

His smile lacked the warmth, radiance, and sincerity of the past. It was bitter, almost powerless. "Ever since the name K topped the killer list, many more people have been hunting me. That's why I've always suspected he came back for revenge."

"Do you think he will hate you?" Shi Ming looked at him and said.

"Yes, I think he will." Ning Yan lowered his head and frowned, trying to think about the figure in his memory, "But I don't think that's like him."

It is difficult to associate the beautiful person in memory with the word "hate", but the facts happening before his eyes keep pointing to the truth that Ning Yan cannot accept the most.

So for so long, Ning Yan rarely took the initiative to look for K.

Just like when he woke up from Ilok Manor after losing his memory, he never took the initiative to look for his lost memories.

He is trying to escape reality and avoid facing the truth.

I don't even want to uncover the truth myself.

He was afraid of seeing a 'Ning Yan' full of hatred, and afraid that when they met again after thirteen years, they would be greeted with swords and spears that were completely changed.

"Boom—"

The heavy, corroded and rusted iron door was pushed open, and light shone in from the broken, old windows.

Under the huge dome, there stood people who had been waiting for a long time, with the sun shining all over them. Lan Ze was tied up and thrown aside.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Lan Ze immediately turned around and saw Ning Yan standing at the door, and shouted, "Brother Ning!"

Ning Yan didn't respond, his eyes fell quietly on the man.

He was dressed in white, his hair was also snow-white, soft and fluffy, and he stood smiling in the sunlight coming in from the window.

This was the place where all the children on Rose Island prayed on Sundays. There are murals and reliefs of the goddess and Jesus on the dome and around it.

In the past, every time he finished praying, Ning Yan would let him stand in the light, looking at his wavy white hair with envy, and couldn't help but say, "K, you are as beautiful as an angel."

There were no mirrors at that time, so he had no idea how beautiful he was.

Now, standing opposite was an adult 'K', with snow-white hair, and in the warm golden sunlight, she was incredibly beautiful.

But this feeling of seeing myself... is really too weird.

Ning Yan felt cold all over, his hair stood on end, and he had goose bumps all over his body.

"Finally we meet again."

The other person looked at him gently and smiled, as harmless as an angel. "You are exactly as I imagined you to be."

Ning Yan stared at him with eyes that trembled violently, but he didn't say anything.

Shi Ming keenly noticed the ups and downs of his emotions and turned to 'K' and said, "We're here. Can you release Lan Ze first?"

"you?"

'K' turned to him. Although his expression remained unchanged, his eyes had turned cold. "I think I only called him."

“…”

Bang!

A gunshot rang out.

The bullet hit the mural on the stone wall, breaking one of the goddess's fingers.

Ning Yan hugged Shi Ming beside him and quickly rolled to the side, hiding behind a stone pillar. He subconsciously protected Shi Ming behind him.

At the same time, the bodyguards waiting outside heard the gunshots and immediately filed in.

More than a dozen submachine guns were pointed at 'K', but 'K' did not show any panic.

With a flick of his wrist, he pointed the gun at Lan Ze, who was tied to the ground, without changing his expression, and said coldly: "Let them go, or we will all die here together today."

Ning Yan had no choice but to say to Shi Ming: "He seems angry, why don't you go back to the boat first?"

Shi Ming asked back, "Are you sure he won't be angry if I leave?"

Ning Yan nodded: "Sure."

"What if he wants to kill you?"

“…”

"Just stand still, right? Let him hit you? Do you think you owe him anyway? After the fight, we'll both be even?" Shi Ming looked at him coldly, his voice unconsciously raised.

“…He won’t.”

"How do you know he won't? Didn't you see him shoot me just now?!"

"But he didn't hit me."

"Just because he didn't hit you just now, does that mean he won't hit you in the future? Can't he just send me away before hitting you? Are you stupid?!"

"No, but you stay—"

Bang!

Another gunshot rang out, this time hitting the stone pillar where they were hiding. 'K' sneered and said, "Could you two stop flirting? I've been waiting here for so long, I'm running out of patience."

“…”

The two looked at each other.

Ning Yan looked at him helplessly, then suddenly pulled him up and pushed him out the door: "This matter has nothing to do with you, so don't meddle in other people's business or make trouble. Go back to the boat immediately! Don't meddle in my affairs!"

Shi Ming was pushed violently and directly to the door, and his shoulder hit the heavy iron door.

He was probably confused. He didn't expect Ning Yan to push him, and push him so hard?

He leaned against the wall for a long time before he finally came to his senses and walked out.

Ning Yan looked at 'K' who was still holding the gun, raised his hands, smiled and said, "Look, he's gone. Let's sit down and have a good chat, okay?"

Shi Ming suddenly stopped, turned around, and shouted, "I'm not leaving!!!"

After saying this, he strode towards Ning Yan with a cold face.

Without waiting for Ning Yan's reaction, Shi Ming's two hands had already tightly grasped his collar. He glared at him angrily and roared, "You pushed me just now? How dare you push me?!"

"I'm telling you, Ning Yan! What I hate most in my life is people pushing me! What I hate most is people saying I'm being unreasonable!"

"Aren't you being unreasonable? I've already told you clearly! This is my business, I don't need you to interfere!"

"Ning Yan, say that again!"

"It's the same no matter how many times I say it! I didn't want to bring you here in the first place. This is my own business and what does it have to do with you?"

"Okay! I don't care about you! You fucking think I want to care about you, right?"

The two quarreled more fiercely, more anxiously, and more intensely.

His face was red and his voice was as loud as thunder.

'K' frowned, looking at the two people in front of him in confusion and panic as they turned against each other, and wanted to point the gun in his hand at Shi Ming.

But the two of them were pulling at each other's collars, making it difficult to separate and completely impossible to aim.

Unable to bear it any longer, 'K' frowned and shouted, "Stop arguing!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Ming suddenly pushed Ning Yan viciously.

Ning Yan fell forward.

Just as 'K' was about to point the gun at Shi Ming—

Suddenly, Ning Yan changed the direction of his fall with lightning speed, raised his head, stared at him with his bottomless eyes, and pounced on him with the lightning precision of a cheetah.

Bang.

The bullet missed the target.

The gun in his hand fell out, Ning Yan hugged 'K''s waist and fell to the ground with him.

The physical fight lasted only three seconds, and in just three seconds, 'K' stopped all his movements.

Ning Yan sat on him, holding the gun that had just been knocked away.

The tip of the gun was against 'K's' head.

"You are not him."

Ning Yan lowered his eyes, his gaze as cold as frost and snow, and said slowly: "He is not as bad as you."
