Lin Yang swallowed hard, but still nodded firmly.
Zhong Yan placed her thumb in the palm of her hand and tapped it lightly. Then she quickly rubbed it between her fingers, as if counting something. After that, her expression changed slightly.
"I'm sorry, I can't do this."
"Hey, I'm telling you, Zhong Yan..." Huang Youde was furious. He had given her the money to do things for him, and now she was saying she couldn't do it. Was this some kind of joke?
"I'll return the money to you. As for the rest, you'll have to find someone else." Zhong Yan glanced at him indifferently, her eyes flashing with a sharp edge.
Before Huang Youde could say anything, Lin Yang panicked and blocked her way without saying a word: "Miss Zhong Yan, you can't leave. My daughter's life is in your hands."
Zhong Yan looked up and met his gaze. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a hint of mockery, as if she could see through people's hearts with just one look.
Lin Yang looked somewhat embarrassed, but still insisted on standing there: "Zhong Yan, you people in this line of work are the most kind-hearted. I hope you can help my daughter this time. In the future, I will definitely not let her cause you any more trouble."
In fact, he has already asked quite a few people for help these days, but none of them have a solution.
I heard that Zhong Yan has been quite outstanding lately, and after inquiring about the Zhong family's reputation, I finally found her. Besides, as a wise person once said, the one who tied the knot must untie it.
Zhong Yan crossed her arms and scrutinized his expression. Everyone liked to use words like "compassionate" or "merciful" to shut her up, but alas, could it be that she looked more like a saintly hypocrite?
"Mr. Lin, it's not impossible for me to help you."
"Thank you."
"Wait a minute, before we go any further, I have a few questions for you." Zhong Yan's voice was cold and clear, making no attempt to hide the chill in it: "Could you tell me where Lin Zhengling went before? I can assure you that she was perfectly fine before she came back from school."
Lin Yang was stunned for a moment, his expression becoming even more embarrassed: "Zhong Yan, you know everything? My daughter didn't do it on purpose, she really didn't do it on purpose."
"oh?"
“She was just curious and wanted to go check it out, that’s all,” Lin Yang said awkwardly, a hint of embarrassment flashing between his brows. “She’s my own daughter, I know what kind of person she is. Even if she did something to you before, it was out of necessity, yes, out of necessity.”
“What a convenient excuse of being forced into a corner.” Zhong Yan smiled faintly as she looked him up and down. “Mr. Lin, you are a good father. Even if your own daughter wanted to commit murder, you could still cover it up.”
Lin Yang swayed, almost losing his footing. For the first time, he realized that some things in this world are not something that can be done secretly. If you're not careful, you can easily get yourself into trouble.
Now, isn't that exactly what he's doing?
"Zhong Yan, just name your conditions."
"I have no conditions, only six words to offer: 'You reap what you sow.'" Zhong Yan said expressionlessly, "I don't think I have any obligation to help someone who wants to harm me. Do you think you can save me so you can harm me again?"
