Wang Jinling rubbed the hair in front of her forehead for a while, trying to hide her expression, and then suddenly lifted it up, revealing her smooth forehead and a pair of beautiful eyes without any disguise. Then the eyes narrowed into a slit, and she began to laugh, from a nasal sound to a chuckle, until finally a laugh that could not be concealed.
Her laughter was pleasant, but it contained an indescribable mockery.
After a long while, Wang Jinling's smile froze strangely. She said calmly, "I was saying that you've been wary of me since we first met. I was curious, but no matter who sees me, I'm probably quite beautiful. Objectively speaking, no one should be disgusted by me just by seeing me."
Chen Tinghan was shocked and said, "You are so fucking narcissistic."
Wang Jinling leaned close to his ear, blew gently, and said, "Am I not beautiful?"
"It's okay," Chen Tinghan coughed and said, "Don't tease me."
Wang Jinling glanced at him and said with a smile, "If I weren't good-looking, you would harass me instead of teasing me."
Then she let him go, not exposing anything, and instead said, "Let me ask you a question. Let's assume I am the person you foresaw in your mind, and my temperament and methods are exactly the same as hers. Or, in other words, I now believe that I am her. Then, according to which country's law should you punish me for these things that have not yet happened?"
I find that you are really naive only in this matter. Are you going to sentence me to death in your inner moral court? Presumption of innocence, Officer Chen."
In the past, Chen Tinghan couldn't stand people saying he was naive. In the beginning, he did believe in justice. But things are different now. In his previous life, he lived to be over 30 years old. He had seen a lot of things and suffered enough losses. He only felt pain, just like the waves washing over the reefs. After a long time, the reefs became smooth.
What hurt him the most was that he had been trapped in an inner struggle. He didn't know how to balance family and gratitude. After his rebirth, this idea became stable and solid.
He wants them all.
He will not bet his entire life on Wang Jinling again, nor will he let the tragedy of his previous life repeat itself. His parents and sister deserve to enjoy a happy and perfect life.
So Chen Tinghan wasn't thinking about blood debt and blood avenging. Wang Jinling didn't kill his parents. If you had to argue, there was some causal relationship. She killed Cheng Jun, but that was a mystery. Cheng Jun was alive and well. Even if it was a play, the stage hadn't even been set. Who was he going to settle the score with? His goal had always been to get Wang Jinling back on track.
"I'm not as righteous as you think. I won't label you a murderer simply because I saw you kill someone in the future."
Chen Tinghan pulled his hand away and said, "Even if you are exactly the same as that person in the future, there is no law on this planet that can punish people from the future."
Wang Jinling adjusted her hair and asked, "Then I don't understand. Why are you wary of me while also trying to oppose me? Isn't it the principle of presumption of innocence?"
"I gave you a reason, but you didn't believe it." Chen Tinghan said.
"I believe it, but not enough. This is part of the truth." Wang Jinling said, "I feel like you've always been afraid of me. Why?"
"Because I am indeed afraid of you. Is there someone like me in your dream?"
Wang Jinling suddenly moved closer and said, "Yes."
Chen Tinghan moved closer to the door and said, "That's why I'm afraid of you. In your dreams, I should be the most sticky person in your life, and I always play roles that are detrimental to you."
"I'm not that hypocritical," Wang Jinling said. "I don't accept the responsibility forced upon me by that dream, and naturally, I don't accept the description of you in that dream."
"So, is it a misunderstanding?"
"That must be a misunderstanding."
The two smiled at each other, but there was no smile on their faces. Chen Tinghan couldn't judge the truthfulness of her words, or whether she was reborn like himself. It was not important whether she was or not, but he couldn't figure it out now. He could only temporarily understand it as the awakening of memories from the previous life.
After such a big detour, Wang Jinling finally got to the point. She said, "So, when will you hand Zhang Keqi over to me?"
Chen Tinghan laughed and said, "He fell into the sea and is not in my hands. How can I give it to you?"
"Just fish it out of the sea and see where you carved it." Wang Jinling said lightly.
"Why do you have to kill him?" Chen Tinghan was puzzled.
Wang Jinling said, "Because only when he dies can Ji Yanghai truly obey me. This is my promise to him. Who would dare to follow a master who can't fulfill his promises? Don't you think so?"
"That's a reasonable reason, but it's still a bit far-fetched, isn't it?" Chen Tinghan smiled and imitated her, saying coldly and emphatically, "I believe it, but it's not enough."
Wang Jinling put her feet back on the cushion. From a psychological point of view, this should be a sign of slight defensiveness.
Chen Tinghan pretended not to see it, closed his eyes and said, "You should have promised not only one person, but two, or even more. Their demand is also Zhang Keqi's death. If Zhang Keqi doesn't die, too many people in Wanghai will be unable to sleep.
Wang Kai might not be afraid, but the moles who used to work for Zhang Keqi should be. Very afraid, trembling with fear, unable to sleep. If Zhang Keqi gets angry, none of those who used to work for him, or to be more specific, the group led by Cui Lixue, will be able to escape.
