She suddenly laughed and said charmingly, "Are you teasing me?"
"I don't have the time to lie," Chen Tinghan said. "Back then on the playground, when I said stopping you was my biggest goal, it wasn't some malicious retort; it was what I really meant."
"Do you remember what happened after the dance on the last day of your second semester of high school?"
Wang Jinling was not a fool. Chen Tinghan's hint was so direct that her memory followed the guidance back to that night. The hazy and blurry figure gradually overlapped with the boy in front of her.
It's not her fault. That night was arguably the worst day in Wang Jinling's 18 years of life. In her eyes, there was actually no one else present during the conversation with Chen Tinghan on the rooftop. Those words were just a veiled criticism directed at herself.
"So that's you."
"It's me."
"So I understand very well how lucky it is to have someone lend a hand when someone is in trouble."
Wang Jinling reacted. She closed her eyes and recalled something: "That's why you had an argument with your classmates at the end of last semester."
Chen Tinghan said: "Because you have done me a favor."
"I feel unworthy of this." Wang Jinling said with a hint of meaning.
Chen Tinghan also understood what she meant and just smiled, not caring: "Whether those words were said to me or not, you may feel that you didn't say anything meaningful, but from my perspective, there is no doubt that you saved me."
Wang Jinling narrowed her almond-shaped eyes, a hint of danger rising from her. "So you're repaying a favor?"
In Wang Jinling's view, repaying a favor is not a completely positive word, because it means that the boy approaches her, stays close to her, and spends all the time with her just out of gratitude for the favor, rather than out of interest in Wang Jinling as an individual.
Chen Tinghan shook his head and said, "It's half and half. I like happy endings when I read books, but I hate tragedies. You can understand this as my wishful thinking. I believe that killing is not a good way to solve problems. From the moment you kill the first person, you go from being a problem solver to becoming the problem itself.
Your life will always go against the path of a happy ending. You may think you have it all for a while, but it is just an illusion, a bubble that will burst at the slightest touch.
Wang Jinling sneered, "This is your narrow understanding of the world."
Chen Tinghan took another sip of coffee. The cold hot drink tasted bitter like medicine, which made him frown slightly. He exhaled and said, "So I said this was my wishful thinking.
I admire you very much, so I hope you get a good ending in the way I want and get the happiness I want you to get."
It must be said that Wang Jinling believes that the two are now in the process of negotiating, attacking each other with the premise of persuading each other, and the smell of gunpowder should be the basis of this dialogue.
But the young man, with lips that had sipped bitter coffee, spoke words mercilessly, penetrating into her chest without any reason.
She calmly lifted her hair to cover her red earlobes.
If you don't hide it, and let people see your weakness, there's no need for this conversation to continue.
Chen Tinghan seemed unaware and said, "It's not too late now. We can still turn back."
Wang Jinling let out a long sigh, put her feet down, sat up straight and said, "Zhang Keqi must die."
Chen Tinghan didn't ask why, because Wang Jinling had already explained it. Firstly, that was her promise to Ji Yanghai. Secondly, she believed that the only way to defeat an unscrupulous enemy was to resort to equally or even more unscrupulous tactics. Finally, time was not on her side, and she didn't have the luxury of waiting for so-called fairness and justice.
"But," Wang Jinling suddenly said, "we can make a bet."
"We made a bet last time." Chen Tinghan said puzzledly.
"This is a supplement to our previous bet." Wang Jinling once again revealed a bewitching smile and said, "I promise, I will find Zhang Keqi before you do and kill him. And I will kill him in a way that you can't blame me for."
"......" Chen Tinghan pondered the meaning of her words and vaguely grasped something, but unfortunately it was an elusive flash of inspiration.
She stood up, walked over to Chen Tinghan, and leaned in close, so close that they were almost face to face. Chen Tinghan could even smell the exciting fragrance on her body. She said, "My request remains the same as last time. If you win, I will accept your wishful thinking and accept... the happiness you want to give me."
A demon, a demon without a doubt... Chen Tinghan suppressed the throbbing in his heart and said calmly, "Okay."
"It's getting late. I'll have someone take you back."
Chen Tinghan inexplicably tugged at the corner of his clothes and sat there for a while before slowly getting up and saying, "I have an appointment with the police officer outside, so I won't bother you."
"good."
......
This gym is the private territory of Wang Jinling and Chen Tinghan. She does not allow any unrelated people to set foot in it. Therefore, Shi Zirui, the personal secretary of the dignified Miss Wang, actually has to clean the table herself and be busy back and forth.
While she was busy, her eyes were not honest. She would glance at her eldest daughter every two steps.
Wang Jinling closed her eyes to rest, but then she noticed something and said, "Look again, and I'll dig your eyes out."
Her threats had no effect. Instead, they relaxed Shi Zirui's deliberately stern face. She said with a smile, "It takes a hundred years of hard work to be in the same boat. I think you two are quite suitable. You are both masters who pretend to be good, and you are both cunning monsters at such a young age.
Only when you two talk face to face can I see that you are like human beings."
Wang Jinling took a long time to calm down her earlobe. She said, "If I were prettier, maybe I could make him reveal a little flaw."
Shi Zirui looked at Wang Jinling and suddenly felt pity for her.
A virgin who has never seen a man is truly pitiful. Even if she is a genius, if she has never seen something, she will never know. How could that young man just now not have revealed any flaws?
"Let me give you an idea."
Wang Jinling said coldly, "Don't come out. Hold it back."
Shi Zirui ignored her and said, "My suggestion is to drug him and sleep with him first. He's definitely a virgin. With such a strong sense of responsibility, he'll definitely do whatever you say after we sleep together. Don't worry about him turning against you after he pulls up his pants."
Wang Jinling's eyes twitched.
She shook her head and said, "How's the business going?"
"That's about it. Although the boss surnamed Lu has a tough attitude, his family is obviously his weak spot."
"That's good. We need to make sure Zhang Keqi belongs to Boss Lu." Wang Jinling smiled sweetly and said, "We have to win the bet, openly and honestly, and make him mine."
