Chapter 374: If you don’t get it, you won’t lose it
The matter was resolved perfectly and Lin Zhiqing was safe and sound.
By the time she finished explaining everything that had happened, it was already completely dark.
Lin Congli and others came with fear in their hearts, but felt much more relaxed when they left.
The same goes for Lin Zhiqing.
As soon as she returned to Shuqing Pavilion, she couldn't wait to move her body.
Apart from anything else, she had been staying under Li Jinzhi's bed for more than an hour, her whole body tense. Now she suddenly relaxed, and her whole body felt sore and painful.
Chaoyan went to arrange hot water for cleansing, and Lin Zhiqing was the only one left in the room.
She took out a booklet and a charcoal pencil, and drew a big cross on the name of the Minister of Justice in the booklet.
Just as she was about to close the book, her hair swayed slightly from back to front.
She frowned slightly and clenched the charcoal pencil in her hand, but soon she smelled a familiar scent of incense powder.
The next moment, Yan Wu's voice, begging for a beating, rang out: "Your handwriting is so ugly."
Lin Zhiqing released the charcoal pencil he was holding tightly and said slowly, "You people can't appreciate my masterpiece."
Yan Wu slowly sat down opposite Lin Zhiqing: "Did you just notice me?"
"If it weren't for the fragrance on your body, my pen would have been pointed at you long ago." Lin Zhiqing put away the booklet.
"I'm so scared." Yan Yu crossed his arms over his chest and made a very exaggerated gesture.
Lin Zhiqing ignored him.
He wasn't embarrassed and continued to speak: "Why are you so cautious? It's as if everyone wants to harm you."
"No." Lin Zhiqing said concisely.
Yan Wu held up his chin and said, "You're lying. Don't think I can't see that you like to keep a back-up plan when doing things."
"As for why you kept a backup plan, it's because you don't trust us, so you always want to plan everything out."
He hit the nail on the head, but Lin Zhiqing didn't like the feeling of having his thoughts pried into, so he said calmly:
"Isn't it the same with you?"
"Yes, we are the same kind of people." Yan Yu said without hesitation: "But you are luckier than me. There are people to help you no matter what you do."
"I am a lonely man."
Lin Zhiqing was about to speak when Yan Wu spoke again:
"But even so, I do things much more simply than you do. Don't you feel tired?"
Are you tired?
It's really tiring.
Ever since arriving in Dasheng, Lin Zhiqing has been afraid of making a wrong move.
She wants to live, to live well, so she has come this far.
It is precisely because she does not belong to this world that she always feels detached from it.
Because of this, she didn't dare to put her life in the hands of anyone.
Especially after she had that dream a few days ago, she always wondered if the real Lin Zhiqing would suddenly come back one day.
At that time, will she be completely out of the game?
If she places too much emotion on the people of Dasheng, and if that day really comes, how will she face the feeling of losing someone she cares about again?
If you don't gain it, you won't lose it.
Lin Zhiqing knew that there was something wrong with her thoughts, but she couldn't control herself.
Therefore, she kept people who were kind to her out of her heart and always remained vigilant.
This is to ensure my survival and to prevent myself from becoming dependent on the people and things here.
It is because of these ideas that she clings to the psychological knowledge she has mastered and uses it as a judgment to separate herself from others.
Recently, she always felt that her connection with Dasheng was getting weaker and weaker.
Lin Zhiqing's mentality means that she has to consider many consequences before doing anything, which of course is very tiring.
Lin Zhiqing sighed slightly: "Yan Wu, you don't understand me."
So, don't try to guess what I'm thinking.
Yan Wu understood the hidden meaning behind Lin Zhiqing's words and smiled: "Why, is it not enough for me to just care about you?"
"If it weren't for me today, you would have suffered."
Lin Zhiqing refused to give in: "If it weren't for you today, there wouldn't be so much trouble."
"But thank you very much."
"Thank you?" Yan Wu raised an eyebrow. "I haven't heard that word in a long time."
Lin Zhiqing smiled and said, "Thank you for returning the veil in time today. Otherwise, our plan would have completely collapsed."
"A veil?" Yan Wu asked with a puzzled look, "Are you talking about that?"
Yan Yu pointed to the wardrobe behind Lin Zhiqing.
Lin Zhiqing turned around and saw that her veil had been placed on the cabinet.
But she remembered that Chao Yan had put the veil hat into the inner room.
Seeing that Lin Zhiqing was a little confused, Yan Wu realized that the information between the two was not synchronized, so he said:
"You may have misunderstood something. I came here today to give you your veil."
"I just put the veil on the cabinet."
"Besides, you said earlier that the veil appeared at the place where you lied about falling."
"I had already left the villa by then, so how could I know where you fell? Do you think we have telepathy?"
Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing quickly stood up and went into the inner room to look for another veil hat.
Soon, two identical veils appeared on the table.
If there was any difference, Lin Zhiqing looked for a long time and could only see that the veil hat that Yan Yu returned was cleaner.
The one I brought back had some dust and dirt on it.
Yan Wu walked around the table and asked, "Are you so cautious that you even need to prepare two veils?"
"I don't have the leisure time for that." Lin Zhiqing pursed his lips.
Yan Wu pouted his chin and asked, "Where did the other one come from? It can't have appeared out of thin air, right?"
Lin Zhiqing didn't answer. She stared at the veil hat she brought back and had some ideas in her mind.
Lu Huai!
This thing was prepared by Lu Huai.
Only Lu Huai could be so careful and think ten steps ahead.
She thought about it again. Since when did Lu Huai interfere with her plan?
It should have started... when Jiang Liuyun wanted to kill someone to silence them, those people inexplicably appeared outside Li Jinzhi's yard in the back mountain.
Those people were not arranged by Lin Zhiqing. She was worried at the time, fearing that Jiang Liuyun would kill everyone and there would be no witnesses.
Then, someone appeared outside the door, forcing Jiang Liuyun to stop killing to silence the witness.
Then, Lu Huai appeared and took her away from under the bed in Li Jinzhi's yard.
After sending her back to the front yard, Lu Huai disappeared.
After that, Lin Zhiqing did not hear any news of Lu Huai appearing in the villa.
The more he thought about this, the clearer Lin Zhiqing's thoughts became.
No wonder the son of the Imperial College's chief academic officer could clearly state that there was a palm-sized hole in her sleeve when he was providing her alibi.
The only people who knew about this were Chao Yan and Lu Huai.
Lu Huai arranged for the son of the Imperial College's chief academic officer to rescue her.
As for the matter of the veil hat, it was probably because Lu Huai thought of the flaw in it, so he helped her find an identical veil hat to help her get through it.
