The white spider left the ward.
Lin Batian looked at the document in his hand, and his brows suddenly furrowed.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xun asked, puzzled.
Lin Batian looked at him: "This person is related to Xiao Su."
Lin Xun's pupils contracted: "What do you mean?"
Lin Batian explained, "According to his confession, he was a university teacher who was in debt to loan sharks and had nowhere to turn. He was later bought off by Qin Tian to be a puppet. He has a girlfriend named Lan Yin, who was Xiao Su's high school classmate."
"Lan Yin? It's her?!" Lin Xun's expression changed drastically.
This Lan Yin, I met the two of them not long ago, but it turns out that the other party is Qin Tian's person?
Lin Batian nodded: "Yes, it seems that they have become Qin Tian's tools because of money."
This tool, however, is quite powerful.
A look of anxiety flashed across Lin Xun's face: "Then isn't my senior in danger?"
He tried to get up, but the movement aggravated his wound, causing him to gasp in pain.
Lin Batian's lips twitched: "What's the panic? You don't need to worry about her safety. I have many people around her, she's perfectly safe."
Just kidding, from the very beginning, he focused on protecting Su Qingshi, okay? He even protected her more than his own son.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
His face was somewhat grim: "Damn it, if this Qin Tian isn't eliminated, he'll definitely become a great menace."
"Don't worry, according to my investigation, Qin Tian has already entered Nancheng. Taking him down will be very easy," Lin Batian said calmly, his tone filled with absolute confidence. "Leave this matter to me."
...
The Su family.
Su Qingshi was cooking, but she seemed distracted.
It's been so long, and there's still no news from Lin Xun. Although Gu Yanyan told her that Lin Xun had something to do, her heart has been beating very fast ever since then.
"Hmm? What's burning?" Su Mo's voice came from outside.
Su Qingshi snapped out of her daze, looked down, and was both amused and exasperated. It turned out that she hadn't flipped her own dish.
A dozen minutes later.
Su Mo looked at the food on the table, his lips twitching slightly. He pointed to a dark-colored dish and asked, "Could you please tell me what this black, charcoal-like thing is?"
"Eggs," Su Qingshi said calmly.
Su Mo's eyes widened, giving him a "Are you kidding me?" look: "So you mean, this is what a cooked egg looks like?"
Su Qingshi paused for a moment, then said calmly, "Actually, I wanted to cook it."
In the blink of an eye, the moisture evaporated.
Su Mo's lips twitched uncontrollably.
However, under the threatening gaze of his younger sister, he had no choice but to start eating.
After the meal, Su Qingshi suddenly received a phone call.
"Lan Yin?"
Su Qingshi frowned and asked, "How did you get my phone number?"
On the other end of the phone, Lan Yin's anxious voice came through: "Qing Shi, where are you? I have something urgent to tell you."
Su Qingshi asked in confusion, "What is it?"
"It's about Lin Xun!"
...
Half an hour later, following the navigation, Su Qingshi arrived at a water bridge on the Youjiang River.
She sensed something was wrong, but her worry for Lin Xun prevented her from thinking too much about it.
Soon, Su Qingshi met Lan Yin, who was dressed in black.
She wore her hair in a bun today and looked quite capable, completely different from the delicate girl she was last time.
Upon seeing Su Qingshi, Lan Yin smiled and said, "You've come."
Su Qingshi stood two meters away and asked coldly, "You said Lin Xun is in trouble? What exactly happened?"
Lan Yin suddenly smiled and said, "Qing Shi, I really envy you. I've known you for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen such a flustered expression on your face."
Su Qingshi frowned: "What are you trying to say?"
Lan Yin laughed, a maniacal laugh, like a devil: "Didn't you want to know how Lin Xun is? I'll tell you, he's dead!"
Upon hearing this, Su Qingshi's pupils contracted, and her pretty face instantly turned pale: "You, what did you say?!"
Lin Xun, is he dead?
These words exploded in her mind like a thunderclap.
"Yes, yes, that's the look of despair on her face. Tsk tsk, it's really funny. I never thought our aloof goddess would have this side to her." Lan Yin burst into laughter.
Su Qingshi looked at her, a hint of red appearing in her eyes, and stared intently at her, asking, "What exactly happened?!"
She didn't believe Lan Yin's one-sided account; she didn't believe Lin Xun was dead!
This woman must be insane.
Lan Yin walked towards her step by step, chuckling, "You know what? A long time ago, I was very jealous of you. Why? Why can you get so many people's approval? They are clearly people you hate, but they still follow you around like a leech?"
"Why should you get everything without doing anything?"
Su Qingshi slowly stepped back and said calmly, "I think you have some misunderstanding. Everything I have achieved is the result of my own hard work."
They only see her glamorous side, but they never know what she has sacrificed for all of this.
"Bullshit!" Lan Yin roared, then revealed a sinister smile: "Su Qingshi, we've been friends for so many years, I'm giving you a chance now. Kneel down and beg me, and I can make you suffer less."
Su Qingshi stared at her, her mind racing as she considered a solution.
"Are you one of Qin Tian's men?"
Suddenly, Su Qingshi's words made Lan Yin's expression freeze.
Upon seeing this, Su Qingshi understood: "So that's how it is. He's already come after you to deal with us?"
Lan Yin's expression became somewhat out of control: "So what if that's the case? Do you know how much your life is worth? Ten million! Ten million! I've never seen so much money before. As long as we hand you over to him, he'll give us ten million. Then, my husband, my child, and I can live a better life!"
Su Qingshi took a deep breath and said, "Lan Yin, this is not an excuse for your crime. Ten million. Do you know what you will face if you are caught? Do you want your child to be stigmatized the moment they make a move?"
She was trying to stall for time and calm the other person down.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Lan Yin's face showed a struggle.
But soon, she became fierce again: "Shut up, ha, I have no other choice now, Su Qingshi, if you have to blame someone, blame yourself, you forced me to do this."
Su Qingshi ignored her and looked directly into Lan Yin's eyes: "I can give you ten million, but you have to answer me, Lin Xun, what happened?"
Lan Yin's expression stiffened, then she sneered: "To tell you the truth, someone made a move when he left Nancheng. I guess he's dead now."
Su Qingshi trembled, her whole body swayed, and her face turned as pale as paper.
