"cut."
Xia Ke'an tried to grab his ear in retaliation, but to no avail, and then changed the subject in frustration, "But what exactly did you guys do that night? Can you tell me?"
"Want to hear it? Call me Daddy if you want to hear it."
"dad."
"屮."
Xu Shi was shocked by the old woman's shamelessness; she didn't even stutter when she called out, did she? Women's gossipy nature is terrifying…
However, there was no point in hiding it from her, so he held Xia Ke'an in his arms and told her the general outline of what had happened.
"I see."
After listening, the white-haired loli nodded thoughtfully, "I must say you're really wicked... You knew this day would come, didn't you?"
"perhaps?"
Xu Shi remained noncommittal, but it was true that cultivating Lin Yue was not just out of a perverse sense of humor. At the right time, she could also be a very good pawn, and now she was proving useful.
Under the dual control of "increased entropy of malice" and "implantation of victimhood intentions," he was not worried at all that the other party would cause any trouble, and he had the upper hand completely.
"It's a terrible thing to go against you."
Xia Ke'an sighed, especially when she thought about how he had manipulated those people, she felt a little sorry for them...
"That's enough. Who are you trying to fool with your crocodile tears?"
Xu Shi teased, "Come on, aren't you going to the company today? Daddy will take you out to play?"
"Dad? You're the older brother."
Xia Ke'an blinked and corrected him with an innocent look.
"You're going back on your word right after you just said that, aren't you?"
Xu Shi gave her a flick on the forehead, but the vomiting didn't work on his buddy.
"Did I? I didn't say that."
The old lady vehemently denied it.
Then, in the next second, Xu Shi picked him up and hung him on the clothes rack in the yard.
"Put me down!"
The white-haired little girl exclaimed, "Didn't you say you'd take me out to play?"
"Isn't this outside?"
Xu Shi grinned mischievously, "Go play by yourself!"
"snort!"
Xia Ke'an was on the verge of tears. What a petty and mean man!
...
On the other side.
While Xu Shi was cracking jokes here, Lin Yue, who was in Sin City, felt like every day was an eternity.
How could it be easy?
With her sister in Xu Shi's hands, she felt increasingly uneasy. Even though she had made a deal with him and he promised not to harm Lin Xing, she still couldn't put her mind at ease.
"Moon Chief".
Seeing this, her subordinate whispered something to her.
He was one of the witnesses who was present at the time, and he roughly knew what had happened.
However, he wouldn't tell anyone—firstly, Lin Yue had repeatedly emphasized this, and secondly, he genuinely admired the Lin sisters.
The fact is that "Spark" is more popular now than before, and people are happy and willing to follow them.
"What's up?"
Lin Yue snapped out of her daze, shook her head, and asked.
"It's like this, there are a few people outside looking for you, saying they want to see you in person about something."
"...Let them in."
Lin Yue paused for a moment, then nodded and gave the instructions.
Before long, several people dressed in black cloaks were led in.
The man at the head of the group took off his hood; it was Chen He.
"Sink head...sink into the river?"
Lin Yue's heart tightened, and she said.
It really was him? Although she had expected this, seeing him in person still made Lin Yue feel a little emotional—mostly because of Xu Shi's perfect planning; things turned out exactly as he had predicted.
"It's me, Lin Yue. Long time no see."
It had been a long time since I'd seen him. He looked much older and more weathered. Although he didn't look dejected, he had long lost his former vigor and spirit.
Seeing Lin Yue sitting in the high seat, he was actually a little saddened - he had heard so many stories about her before, but he didn't quite believe it, since it didn't match the Lin Yue he knew.
But now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he has to admit that the new leader of the Sixth District has long lost his former naivety and has been replaced by the aura of a leader.
"...Where have you been all this time? Why haven't I been able to find you?"
Lin Yue showed him a seat, but couldn't help asking a few questions.
"It's more like clinging to life."
Shen He chuckled self-deprecatingly, but a strange feeling of unease crept into his heart.
Last time, she left the organization in anger because she couldn't stay in District Six.
Unexpectedly, a few months later, she became the leader here, and instead came to her with a request.
"So...what do you want from me?"
Lin Yue didn't ask any more questions. For some reason, she suddenly realized that there seemed to be some unspeakable distance between her and Shen He. Not only had her former admiration vanished, but even after a long separation, she couldn't feel any emotion in her heart.
Even their conversations felt awkward, as if they were strangers.
"I...have come to ask for your help."
Shen He also sensed the subtle atmosphere and felt a little awkward, so he just smiled and got straight to the point.
"You know, I became the way I am now entirely thanks to Xu Shi."
He continued, "Fortunately, I've finally found a chance... Are you still willing to be with me, Lin Yue?"
Tell me your plans.
Lin Yue did not agree immediately, but continued to ask.
With the defeat of the first generation of "Spark" preceding her and Lin Xing's capture following, she is now truly hesitant and timid, vaguely aware that Xu Shi is not so easy to deal with.
But Shen He seems quite confident... so that's why Xu Shi came to find me ahead of time, right? Given that guy's personality, he certainly wouldn't overlook any detail in this situation.
