Chapter 588: Sharp Tongue, Soft Heart
“…Lin Ze…? Hahahaha, you are Lin Ze…?”
There was a hint of uncertainty, a hint of madness, and a hint of disbelief in Li Chengtian's voice.
He was still holding Chang Yue's collar, but after seeing Lin Ze, his emotions seemed to become extremely excited.
"It's you, it's you!! Lin Ze! It's you!!"
After confirming that the person behind him was indeed Lin Ze, whom he knew, Li Chengtian suddenly laughed, as happy as a child.
"Hurry up! Help me! Help me! Kill Chang Yue! Hurry up!!" There was an urgency and a command in his voice.
Lin Ze's eyes moved slightly, she stared at the crazy man in front of her. The once familiar figure has now become strange.
"I'll say it again..." Lin Ze took a deep breath, and then his eyes gradually became cold: "Let him go."
Li Chengtian was stunned for a moment, then he let go of Chang Yue, slowly stood up and looked at Lin Ze.
There was a hint of forced tenderness in his eyes. "Lin Ze, it's me... I'm Li Chengtian... Don't you recognize me?"
“…”
Lin Ze's hand holding the knife trembled slightly, and then she slowly nodded.
"I remember...I will probably never forget you, Li Chengtian."
There was a tremor in her voice, a hint of pain.
Li Chengtian limped closer to Lin Ze, the smile on his face beginning to twist.
"I'm back, Lin Ze, I'm back..." There was an almost pleading tone in his voice.
"I told you." Lin Ze's knife pressed against Li Chengtian's neck again. "...Don't move."
There was a determination and firmness in her voice.
Li Chengtian was stunned for a moment, and then the smile was still on his face.
"I...I know...you must be...resenting me. I've been away for so long...Lin Ze...you must be hating me...I'm back...this time, I won't leave...I won't leave..."
There was an almost pleading tone in his voice.
Seeing the man raise his hands and hug him, the knife in Lin Ze's hand slowly slipped out of his hand and fell to the ground.
"Lin Ze... I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm back, I'm back... You still love me, right... You must still love me, help me kill Chang Yue, kill him... Come with me... I'll take you away... Let's go kill Lu Shan, kill Shuo Bai, kill, kill everyone, hahahahaha."
There was an almost crazy persistence in Li Chengtian's voice.
Lin Ze felt the man's embrace, but it wasn't as gentle as it had been back then. Her eyes, which had been slightly closed, slowly opened. "...I...used to love you." Her voice trembled, a hint of pain.
"......What did you say?" Li Chengtian's body froze.
"The you I loved... might have died long ago... If it was you before, would you really say something like this to me? You've found your true love, you have your own child... Li Chengtian, can you forget all this?"
Lin Ze's voice trembled a little. She gently broke free from Li Chengtian's arms, and then held up the face that was distorted with shock.
"So now...don't move."
Lin Ze's hand suddenly grabbed Li Chengtian's neck.
"You also... betrayed me!!! Lin Ze!! You are not Lin Ze!! You are just a piece of debris!!"
Li Chengtian suddenly jumped up, and the aura of the realm on his body spread out violently, directly turning this piece of mountains, rivers, and world into a purgatory on earth.
Chang Yue ignored his own injuries and pounced on Lin Ze. Just when the two were about to join forces to capture him, Li Chengtian had already broken the realm decree and then rushed out like a shadow.
His figure left a trail of afterimages in the air and soon disappeared on the other side of the boundary decree.
Lin Ze looked at the direction where Li Chengtian disappeared, his eyes filled with sadness and helplessness.
She slowly squatted down and picked up the knife that had fallen to the ground.
"I... was negligent. I shouldn't have given him the chance to escape."
Lin Ze looked at the knife in his hand, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.
Chang Yue covered his injured abdomen and slowly walked to Lin Ze.
He saw tears glistening in the corners of Lin Ze's eyes and couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm sorry...for making you face him again..." Chang Yue whispered, with guilt in his tone.
Lin Ze shook his head and casually threw the knife away.
"His madness hasn't gotten any better. He's only more dangerous now than before."
Lin Ze helped Chang Yue walk out of the boundary decree and returned to the director's office.
At this moment, the office window has been broken, which should be done by Li Chengtian.
"His power is very unstable right now, so don't stimulate him for now."
Lin Ze said.
"No..." Chang Yue shook his head and sighed: "He should go somewhere else."
Lin Ze frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled: "Where are you going? Are you going to find Li Lingan?"
"He will go find Li Muchan. I just told him that the current An An is Li Muchan."
Hearing Chang Yue's words, Lin Ze's face turned cold: "Do you really not care about Li Muhan's life or death at all?"
"There are some things that Li Chengtian must face. This is the sin he committed in the past, so he must untie this knot."
Lin Ze threw Chang Yue aside and then jumped out of the window.
Looking at Lin Ze's back, Chang Yue couldn't help but think of some things that happened in the past.
That junior fellow who always follows behind him, and that monster with the power to destroy everything, when did these two become friends?
But that night, Li Chengtian did not show up again.
Lin Ze personally waited outside Li Muhan's residence for a whole night, but Li Chengtian did not reveal any clues.
After a long time, Lin Ze understood something.
Li Chengtian didn't believe Chang Yue. His madness was more serious than anyone imagined.
He still firmly believed that the girl he saw was Li Lingan.
The next day, when Li Muhan and Xia Yue were about to go out, they were surprised to find Lin Ze standing at their door smoking.
In the smoke, Lin Ze's figure seemed a little lonely, but still determined.
"......Director Lin?" Li Muhan looked at Lin Ze blankly, obviously surprised by her appearance.
Lin Ze turned his head and gave him a faint smile: "Well, good morning, are you going to training today too?"
"Uh, yes."
"What about Xia Yue? Are you going to take care of the child today too?"
Xia Yue turned her head away angrily, seemingly very dissatisfied with the fact that the tasks of both teams were assigned to her: "...Humph."
Lin Ze looked at the angry Xia Yue and couldn't help but chuckle. She patted Xia Yue's shoulder and soothed her, "Don't be angry. This can't be helped. We're short on manpower, so everyone needs to be more tolerant."
"......snort."
Xia Yue was still looking angry, and finally Lin Ze came up with a solution.
"How about this? Team Hati has been carrying out their missions perfectly lately. What do you think about letting her lead the team with you?"
In fact, Xia Yue's relationship with Hati has not been so tense recently.
Especially after Hati taught her many practical tips, the two would even chat on the phone.
Of course, they would start arguing after just three sentences.
But in a way, this is actually a sign of a good relationship.
If Hati could come and help, that wouldn't be impossible. The key is that I really don't want to face the three Liu sisters alone anymore. They're almost like dress-up dolls...
"Hmph... If that stupid wolf wants to come and help, I, I might consider it."
Seeing Xia Yue's awkward look, Li Muhan rubbed her head and said to Lin Ze, "Please, Director Lin, let Hati help."
Lin Ze saw through Xia Yue's little thoughts and laughed secretly in her heart. She knew Xia Yue's character. Although she was harsh in words, she was actually very happy in her heart.
"Then it's settled. I'll go inform Hati and ask her to come to you as soon as possible. You two should work together and lead those two teams well." Lin Ze made the final decision.
Then Lin Ze reminded them: "Oh, by the way, no fighting. If you two dare to fight in front of the interns..."
Lin Ze's eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent: "The three of you, clean your necks and wait."
“????”
Li Muhan's face was full of question marks.
"No! Director Lin! What does this have to do with me?!"
Lin Ze's figure gradually disappeared into the distance, and Li Muhan let out a long sigh.
"Xia Yue, did you notice?"
He turned and looked at Xia Yue.
Xia Yue also nodded meaningfully.
"The moment I opened the door just now, Lin Ze was filled with murderous intent."
