Hearing Xu Shi say this, not only Lin Yue herself, but Su Lin and Jiang Chengcheng were just as surprised as she was.
Su Lin: Release them? This isn't like the young master. He's already bored after less than a day? No, no, the young master must have something else in mind, right...?
Jiang Chengcheng: Who is this woman? Why is she tied up in the inner room by Chairman Xu? Tsk, I really don't like her...
"What did you say?"
Lin Yue even doubted if there was something wrong with her ears, "Let me go?"
"Yes, I'll let you go."
Xu Shi asked earnestly, "How about that? You've never seen someone as tolerant as me, have you? I didn't even pursue the person who wanted to kill me... Why don't you quickly say thank you, Chairman Xu?"
His expression left no room for doubt that he was speaking from the heart.
"...Who knows if you have ulterior motives?"
But Lin Yue still didn't believe it, so she gritted her teeth and turned her head away.
"You don't understand me, so I don't blame you for thinking that way."
Xu Shi sighed regretfully, "But don't think too badly of me, little sister... I may have tormented you, but to be honest, I still admire you quite a bit."
"……Clam?"
"Really, believe me."
Xu Shi's eyes were incredibly sincere. "Because I understand why you would come alone to assassinate me... It's because 'Spark' has suffered a series of setbacks recently, and you couldn't bear to see your leader, Shenhe, in a dilemma, so you took this risk, right?"
"Such loyalty is truly rare... Or let me guess, it's not just loyalty? There's also admiration and longing buried deep in its heart?"
"..."
Lin Yue was speechless upon hearing this, because what the other party said was basically true, but she didn't know why Xu Shi had brought these things up.
"So, based on your sincerity, I'm willing to give you a chance."
Xu Shi smiled. "Go back and regroup. Who knows, maybe one day in the future you'll actually kill me and fulfill your wish...right?"
At this moment, at least at this moment, he appears quite generous and very upright.
Unfortunately, Lin Yue did not experience Mr. Xu's personal charm as a result.
Xu Shi's words only made her feel worse—it seemed he definitely didn't know she had left the organization, and although her feelings for Shen He were still there, they had become less pure because of Shen He's actions.
She longed for the Shenhe that had once led everyone to sweep away the poison of the city of sin and establish a new order, but not necessarily the Shenhe that now lived under someone else's roof and ignored her own feelings.
But now is not the time to dwell on this. She paused, then asked again to confirm, "You really... are you just going to let me go like this?"
Xu Shi shrugged. "I never lie."
"Don't think this will change anything."
Lin Yue regained some composure and looked at him coldly, saying, "One day, you will pay the price for this arrogance."
"The truth is, even if there were a hundred of you, you probably wouldn't be a match for me."
Xu Shi ignored her for ungrateful behavior and simply gestured to Su Lin.
The other person understood immediately, walked behind Lin Yue, and injected a sedative into her neck.
"...Before you take her back, remember to change her clothes. It's too awful to see her like this, all ragged and tattered."
Before losing consciousness, Lin Yue heard Xu Shi's instructions.
The other person murmured gently to themselves, "How can there be such a good person as me?"
...
"Congratulations, young master, your acting skills have improved a lot."
Looking at the unconscious assassin girl, Su Lin couldn't help but complain, "Even I almost believed it."
"What are you saying? I really mean to keep my promise and let her go back, okay?"
Xu Shi rolled his eyes at her, "If you disagree with me again, I'll deduct a month's salary from your paycheck."
However, this isn't some kind of dramatic capture and release scheme; what era are we living in? He doesn't have the time or energy for that.
It's simply because letting Lin Yue go back is more useful than keeping her detained.
He now needs to cultivate his own power in Sin City, and the little assassin sister is undoubtedly a good candidate.
She's the enemy? That doesn't matter.
From the moment the seed of "entropy of evil thoughts" was planted, poor Lin Yue was destined to be manipulated by him.
Although they had a great time with the "victim consciousness implantation," the main course couldn't be neglected... In fact, the emotional feedback brought by Lin Yue was no weaker than that of Xia Wuyou and the others.
Hers is even more complicated.
Now is the time when she is most disappointed in Shenhe, but her feelings for him may not be severed. These two emotions are mixed together, and she feels that they will produce many strange chemical reactions.
As for herself, it was simpler—the modified six-pointed star assassin was just for show, and the enhanced "entropy of evil thoughts" made Xu Shi very confident that she would not break through her inner demons because of it.
On the contrary, she only felt more and more afraid of herself when she recalled all of this.
Of course, one more point needs to be added: under the influence of "victim consciousness implantation," she has subconscious masochistic tendencies.
Like a duckling looking for its mother, this masochistic tendency only manifests when she is with herself, and only she can satisfy her desire in this regard.
So, what happens when these different seeds intertwine at the same time...? Just thinking about it is so exciting!
However, having Lin Yue alone is not enough; she is just the beginning, and we need to find her some more partners.
