Both the decor and the layout of this hotel were exactly what Shen Ye liked.
A few days ago, he almost impulsively bought the hotel. If it weren't for the system, the hotel would probably have changed hands by now.
Jiang Lin'an still had that bright smile when he came up from the underground parking garage, but he looked different from usual.
It was like he had become a different person, but Shen Ye couldn't quite put his finger on what had changed.
Could it be an illusion?
"Dad, want to have a drink with me?"
Jiang Lin'an's words interrupted Shen Ye's thoughts and made Shen Ye notice the subtle changes on Jiang Lin'an's face.
That smile held a knife within it, a sinister intent lurking beneath...
"dad?"
Just as he was about to speak, the phone rang. He picked it up and swiped to answer. Yang Fei's solemn voice came from the other end of the line, "Boss, Miss Lin is dead. The police are already suspecting the young master."
Shen Ye didn't say anything, hung up the phone, and stared straight at Jiang Lin'an, only to find that Jiang Lin'an was also looking at him.
He smiled, but his gaze was sharp as a blade. He asked softly, "Dad, what's wrong?"
"What did you do that you're asking me what happened?" Shen Ye said angrily, slamming his hand on the table with a dull thud.
"I don't know what I did."
Jiang Lin'an's mockery was like a biting wind whistling past Shen Ye's ears. He clenched his fist, his nails digging deep into his palm. If it weren't for the physical pain that calmed him down, there would probably be five finger marks on Jiang Lin'an's face by now.
He took a deep breath, looked at Jiang Lin'an's ambiguous gaze, and said softly, "Jiang Lin'an, I apologize for the mistakes I made before. I shouldn't have provoked you. So, from now on, you go your way and I'll go mine. We'll be strangers."
Jiang Lin'an, I hope you'll avoid some detours, love fewer wrong people, and make fewer mistakes in the future...
A moment of silence.
Jiang Lin'an did not expect that Shen Ye would say such a thing at this moment.
"If you dare to abandon me, I will kill you."
The man he loved with all his might, the man who raised him, simply picked up his phone from the table and left after saying those words, as if he didn't care about what he said.
"The night is deep..."
Jiang Lin'an's eyes suddenly reddened, but he didn't cry, because tears were useless.
He simply watched Shen Ye Qingyi's retreating figure calmly and whispered, "If I could have you in this life, what would it matter if I destroyed this world?"
The night was deep and dark. After a gust of wind, snowflakes fell and landed on his hair and shoulders, melting away in an instant.
Jiang Lin'an looked up at the tranquil night sky.
There was once someone who said to him on such a day, a snowy day, "Lin'an, no matter what happens, I will never abandon you, because you are the first snow in my heart."
But now, he has fallen so low that he is almost a complete mess.
He smiled, touched his dry eyes, and stepped into the secret base that belonged to him and a few other members.
Let's destroy the world tonight.
Anyway, the world has already abandoned him.
Overnight, Shen's Group's stock plummeted to its daily limit, and its ongoing projects also encountered problems and setbacks overnight...
Even the Shen Group's available funds dwindled to zero overnight...
Driving at 200 km/h in the dead of night, after running countless red lights, we finally arrived at the villa.
The villa was lifeless. When the door was opened, everything was exactly as it had been yesterday, as if Jiang Lin'an had not returned home all night.
He went upstairs, opened Jiang Lin'an's bedroom door, and saw a scene that almost took his breath away...
