Chapter 230 I'm Taking My Sister Away
At two o'clock in the morning, Lin Yi'an tossed and turned, unable to sleep, his mind still preoccupied with Mo Ziyuan's information. He finally got up and went to find Shi Jingsheng.
With a soft "bang," he slammed his hand on the edge of the bed without any hesitation: "Get up."
"what!"
Shi Jingsheng was somewhat unhappy.
"Why are you here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? I'm going to sleep, I don't have time to play with you."
Lin Yi'an seemed oblivious to the impatience in his tone.
"Get up and wake up, I have something to ask you."
"Say what it is right away."
Unable to resist, Shi Jingsheng simply sat up and looked at Lin Yi'an in front of him.
"Jing Sheng, let me ask you, under what circumstances would Zi Yuan set a password that neither of us knows?" Lin Yi'an's voice carried a hint of seriousness.
Shi Jingsheng was sleeping soundly and didn't really want to discuss this issue with him.
"Password? What password? Did you go through his safe? If it's his safe, the password should be five 1s and one 5."
He stared in disbelief.
How did you know?
At this moment, Shi Jingsheng was fully awake and raised an eyebrow.
"I saw it by chance last time, but there shouldn't be anything important in his safe. You can go and take a look if you want."
Lin Yi'an didn't say anything more and went straight out of the room to the study.
Even a moment before entering the password, he didn't forget to repent for his sins.
"Ziyuan, Ziyuan, brother, I didn't mean to peek. It's just that I felt there was something inside that I had to know. If you want to know my secret, just ask me directly, and I'll tell you everything. But we good brothers shouldn't have any secrets, right?"
After some self-reassurance, Lin Yi'an successfully convinced himself.
He got the password right, but once inside, he discovered it was just a video.
The man was a little confused. Knowing his good brother as he did, why would he lock a video specifically for that purpose?
The video showed a little girl wearing a light pink tulle dress, lying on a thick carpet. The wind from the balcony blew, and the light was just right, blowing her hair in all directions.
Tranquil and beautiful, that's what he would have thought if it weren't his sister, but the person inside is Lin Yiluo!!!
He looked at the date under the video and compared it in his mind. The girl had just arrived, and if he remembered correctly, it should have been about ten days. In his memory, the two of them should not have had any interaction.
Lin Yi'an felt a chill run down her spine. From this angle, why would Mo Ziyuan have such a video, especially since it was taken in her own baby's room?
The man began to look through the other documents, but there was nothing there. It was too clean, strangely clean.
That video was clearly surveillance footage; there should have been other videos, so why is there nothing?
He then looked through the USB drive's data recordings. Mo Ziyuan's computer used the world's most advanced technology, and Lin Yi'an and Shi Jingsheng each had an identical one. He searched through every aspect of the computer before trying to restore it.
Sure enough, half an hour later, the restoration was successful. Looking at the more than 100 GB of content, Lin Yi'an didn't dare to open it; he didn't dare to look.
The watch on the man's wrist beeped, alerting him to a high heart rate.
Lin Yi'an pulled off his watch and tossed it aside. He rested his arm on the table, rubbed his forehead, and closed his eyes.
About ten minutes later, he slowly opened his eyes and then deleted all the content. This time, he deleted everything completely, except for the video he had seen.
He guessed it, he must have guessed it, he guessed what was inside. Lin Yi'an didn't dare to look, afraid that what was inside would be exactly what he thought.
Next to him was his water glass, the water inside of which had already cooled down, but he still picked it up and drank it all in one gulp. The glass shattered and exploded in his hand under the immense pressure.
Blood splattered everywhere along with the shards of ceramic, and even the keyboard was not spared. Drop after drop of blood splattered onto the table, but Lin Yi'an sat there as if he felt no pain.
The blood on the table had congealed into a small pit, then slid down the edge of the table onto the carpet, dripping and soaking the thick white carpet.
Lin Yi'an finally reacted. After an unknown amount of time, he slowly stood up and walked step by step toward Shi Jingsheng's room.
Being stared at was really uncomfortable, but what made Shi Jingsheng open his eyes was the fishy smell that filled the room. He rubbed his nose, thinking he must have smelled something wrong.
To her surprise, the fishy smell became even stronger after she sat up. She turned on the bedside lamp and saw Lin Yi'an standing in front of her.
Lin Yi'an stood there expressionless, his eyes somewhat vacant, and there were red spots on his white pajamas.
"Holy crap!" Shi Jingsheng looked down at his hand and saw blood still seeping from his palm, shards of porcelain embedded in the flesh—a horrifying sight. He quickly rolled off the bed, grabbed Lin Yi'an's wrist, and asked anxiously, "What happened to your hand?!"
He gently pulled him up, and blood was still seeping from Lin Yi'an's hands. Not only that, but there were also white ceramic shards mixed in with his hands.
Shi Jingsheng pulled him to sit on the sofa, took out the first-aid kit, and began to treat the wound. Lin Yi'an, who would usually cry out in pain at the slightest pain, was now like a numb puppet, letting Shi Jingsheng use tweezers to remove the porcelain shards, disinfect with iodine, and bandage with gauze. Shi Jingsheng's heart sank little by little.
Based on Shi Jingsheng's understanding of him, he was absolutely certain that something serious had happened.
He didn't ask any more questions and focused on treating his injured hand. Only after bandaging it did he give him some instructions.
"Don't get it wet for the next few days. Your hand is injured quite deeply. If it really hurts, I can prescribe some medicine for you."
After a long silence, Lin Yi'an finally spoke, his voice hoarse like sandpaper: "Jing Sheng, I'm taking Yi Luo to move out tomorrow."
Shi Jingsheng knew something big must have happened, but he didn't understand what was going on. He tried hard to process what was happening, but couldn't come up with anything. In the end, he just nodded in agreement.
"good."
After Lin Yi'an left, Shi Jingsheng immediately put on a coat and went out. He originally intended to go directly to Mo Ziyuan, but when he passed Lin Yiluo's room, he found it completely dark, indicating that Mo Ziyuan was unaware of what had happened that evening. The study light, however, was glaringly bright. Shi Jingsheng frowned and pushed open the door to go inside.
A strong, pungent smell of blood wafted through the air, mingled with the cool scent of shattered ceramic pieces. The study was a mess, and Shi Jingsheng's first thought was that "an enemy has come to the door," even picturing Lin Yi'an being threatened. But after scanning the room, he found no signs of a struggle, only scattered shards of glass and congealed blood, clearly indicating that Lin Yi'an had made the mess himself.
He walked to the desk, where the blood was the most abundant. It had only just begun to congeal. Looking at all this blood, Shi Jingsheng thought he was stupid. He had lost so much blood and still came to him. Didn't he even feel bad?
The computer was still on. The man picked up a few sheets of paper and casually wiped the keyboard. After turning it on, he saw the locked file.
Without the slightest hesitation, he entered the password directly. As soon as he entered, he saw the video. Just as Lin Yi'an had thought, if the person in the video wasn't Lin Yiluo, he would find it beautiful and heartwarming.
Looking at the date below, he immediately understood that it was when the girl first arrived. Shi Jingsheng himself felt a little scared, wondering if his good brother was secretly watching him. However, he was open and honest and there seemed to be nothing he needed to be watched. If Ziyuan really wanted to see him, he would cooperate and let him see wherever he wanted.
Shi Jingsheng searched for other things. Given Mo Ziyuan's personality, it was impossible that he only had these things. Lin Yi'an must have found something else, otherwise he wouldn't have acted that way.
He sat in front of the computer and searched for a long time before finally finding some clues, but they had been cleaned up so thoroughly that all he could tell were videos.
The videos had been completely cleaned up by Lin Yi'an. Without even thinking, Shi Jingsheng knew who these videos were related to, and he could even guess the general content of them.
He studied it for a while longer, making sure that the contents couldn't be restored before he felt relieved. He was going to find Yi'an now, since Ziyuan probably couldn't appease Yi'an either, so he might as well choose a side for now.
