Chapter 136 Something happened, my brother took the responsibility
After breakfast the next day, Lin Yan followed Lin Zhi to a jewelry wholesale market called Jianmi.
The market is large and bustling, with vendors lining both sides of the road.
There are many types of jewelry.
The stalls were crowded with buyers from all over the world.
Qin Yuan introduced her to him.
"The Jianmi market just opened today, and it's bustling. Some of these people are private merchants, some are hired by thugs to pick up goods and resell them at a profit, and some are tourists brought here by tour guides to shop."
Qin Yuan suddenly leaned closer and continued, "The stones and jewels on these stalls all belong to your brother. And these stall owners who pretend not to know each other are also your brother's people."
Lin Yan was very surprised. She glanced suspiciously at the jewelry on the stall and asked.
"Where did he get the goods? Are they real or fake?"
"Seventh brother has his own channels." Qin Yuan turned the beads on his wrist, narrowed his eyes, and continued.
"As for the goods... fake or real, real or fake, it all depends on whether they have a discerning eye for quality. The jewelry market is already full of mixed people, so it depends on who you serve."
Lin Yan: "Are you selling fake goods?"
"Sister Lin." Qin Yuan drooped his eyelids and said nonchalantly, "You can't say that. Ninety percent of what we sell is good stuff. Besides, what is real? What is fake? A piece of stone is worth whatever you think it's worth. Value is assigned by people, don't you understand?"
Lin Yan was too lazy to argue with him: "Aren't you afraid that someone will cause trouble?"
"That's not true." Qin Yuan said, "Seventh Brother has someone above him, so no one dares to make trouble."
As we were chatting, a dark-skinned man in a floral shirt came jogging over.
"Brother Yuan, Brother Qi is calling you."
After saying that, the man looked at her with a smile: "You are the sister of the seventh brother, right? You are so fair!"
"Don't look." Qin Yuan glared at him and said, "Get lost."
The man shrank his neck and slipped away.
Qin Yuan lowered his head and raised his eyebrows at her: "Let's go, Sister Lin, go see the gift your brother prepared for you."
Lin Yan followed Qin Yuan around the market and found that the surrounding areas were all bungalows.
Qin Yuan led her into a room. The room was empty and not very big, with only a few chairs and a table.
Lin Zhi, wearing a black shirt, was sitting on a stool smoking with a gloomy look on his face.
Seeing her coming, he put out his cigarette.
"Yan Yan, come and sit down."
Lin Yan walked over and sat next to him: "Brother, what gift?"
Lin Zhi and Qin Yuan exchanged glances, and Qin Yuan clapped his hands towards the door.
Three women with haggard faces and disheveled clothes walked in staggeringly with their hands tied.
When Lin Yan saw their faces clearly, her whole body stiffened.
Although so many years have passed, and although the appearance has lost the immaturity and youthfulness of the past.
But she still recognized the people in front of her at a glance.
Ren Keyi.
Tao Wen.
Ouyang Ling.
Their names had already pierced into Lin Yan's flesh like a knife.
She will never forget that pain.
The loud sound of slapping brought her back to her senses.
Qin Yuan slapped them each and spat at them casually.
"What are you standing there for? Huh? Don't you know how to kowtow to your ancestors when you see them?"
Hearing this, the three of them began to kowtow to her like soulless machines.
He kept repeating the word "I'm sorry"...
Lin Yan had no expression and looked at them with unusual indifference.
"Yan Yan." Lin Zhi's voice came over in a lukewarm tone: "These three bitches are in your hands now. You can vent your anger however you want."
After saying that, he continued, "This is a lawless place, you can come here as you please. If anything goes wrong, I will take care of it."
When the three heard this, their cries of begging for mercy mixed with their sobs echoed in the bungalow.
Lin Yan took a deep breath and walked towards them as if she had gathered all her strength.
She stopped and looked down at them who were crying and bruised, and suddenly she sneered.
Crocodile tears are so humorous.
She had once been like them now, kowtowed countless times and trembled in begging for mercy.
But the result was even more severe bullying.
People will not easily regret what they have done.
Unless, you suffer the same retribution as I do.
Even if you feel regret, essentially you are not repentant in your heart. You are just afraid that the knife that you once used on others will come back to you and you are afraid of the pain.
She turned her gaze towards Qin Yuan and said coldly, "Do you have any boiling water? The kind that's at 100 degrees."
Qin Yuan said calmly: "Wait, I'll make it for you now."
As Qin Yuan just stepped out of the door, Ren Keyi suddenly raised his head and hugged her legs, tears flowing from his sunken eyes, and apologized to her.
"Lin Yan... I was young back then... I didn't understand right from wrong... I was wrong... I was really wrong! Please let me go... Please let me go..."
"Young?" Lin Yan's eyes twitched. "I was young then too, but I remember you were pretty rough."
"Lin Yan... I... I was ignorant at that time..."
Tao Wen, who was kneeling beside her, took over the conversation tremblingly: "Lin Yan... all of this was done by Mo Jiaozi... It was not our intention..."
Ouyang Ling, who dared not say a word, also joined in the commotion: "That's right... We never intended to hurt you... It's all Mo Jiaozi's fault... It's all her fault... We were forced..."
There was no sincere apology.
Just meaningless shirking.
Lin Yan: "Three of you were already high school students back then, with independent minds. You did whatever Mo Jiaozi told you to do. Now, if I tell you to die, are you willing to go?"
Several people were speechless.
A few seconds later, another burst of distraught crying was heard.
Not long after, Qin Yuan returned to the house carrying a kettle.
"Sister Lin, the weapon you requested."
Lin Yan took the kettle, and the white hot steam coming out of the kettle blurred her face.
The three of them looked at each other and seemed to have anticipated something, and wanted to stand up and escape.
"Kneel down." Lin Zhi warned in a cold voice, "Anyone who dares to stand up will have their legs broken."
There was no other way, they could only kneel on the ground in agony with pale faces...
Lin Yan hesitated for a moment.
But if you do something wrong, you will pay the price.
Without profound lessons, people will never learn from them.
This truth, though late, must be made known to them...
Then, screams filled the entire room...
Afterwards, they were taken away.
Lin Yan stared at the water stains on the ground for a long time.
Lin Zhi's palm fell on her shoulder: "Yan Yan, is that all?"
Lin Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, being a villain seems to be quite difficult."
"Then I'll do it for you."
"Leave them alive. After all, death is a relief for them now."
"Yeah, I agree."
Lin Yan looked up at him, her nose sour: "Brother... Mo Jiaozi was also done by you... right?"
Lin Zhiyin's eyes moved, but he didn't respond.
But Lin Yan had already understood his consent.
How much had he done for her behind her back...
"Brother...it's because of me...that you've been hiding all these years, right?"
Lin Zhi looked at the tears rolling out of her eyes, raised his hand and wiped them away slightly stiffly, his voice calm.
"Yan Yan, the thing I regret most is joining the army. Sometimes I think, if I hadn't joined the army, you wouldn't have been bullied during your three years of high school."
"I won't... suffer from mental illness..."
Tears drew transparent tracks on her cheeks again.
"Brother..." Lin Yan smiled: "It will be hard before it's sweet. Things will get better and better in the future..."
When I walked out of the bungalow, the gloomy weather had turned into clear skies.
Lin Yan habitually looked up at the sun.
Although it is dazzling, you can face the light.
She tilted her head back and slowly closed her eyes.
Same sky, same sun.
What would Xing Yu be doing at this moment?
She held the lisianthus pendant around her neck.
Recite silently with determination in your heart.
Treat the disease seriously and return home as soon as possible to hug him...
