Chapter 29 Dealing with Traitors
After getting in the car, Lu Shiman turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window.
Chu Qi sat in the co-pilot seat and reported his work to Ji Linshen.
Lu Shiman always felt that Ji Linshen's condition was different from that in Jincheng. It was like a wild beast that had been imprisoned for a long time and was suddenly released. His aura was fierce and fierce.
She secretly glanced at Ji Linshen out of the corner of her eye. His expression was dull, his eyelashes drooped, and no emotion could be seen in his eyes, but his tightly pursed thin lips still betrayed his current mood.
He's clearly back on his own territory, so why is he still unhappy?
Lu Shiman knew very little about Ji Linshen, and most of what he heard from others.
It's nothing more than being cruel and ruthless, and using any means necessary.
She knew nothing about his past and didn't want to know.
She understands that the more you know, the sooner you die.
The car drove all the way to a huge manor. The garden and lawn alone occupied a large area, not to mention the castle-like house.
It was almost dawn and Lu Shiman was really sleepy, but Ji Linshen obviously still had a lot of things to deal with, so she couldn't say she wanted to sleep.
Following behind Ji Linshen, he yawned one after another, his eyelids twitching wildly.
Walking into the hall, the crystal chandelier was dazzling. A man was kneeling in the middle of the hall with his head lowered, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
Seeing Ji Linshen, the man trembled and lowered his head even lower.
Next to the kneeling man, a man with a crew cut and wearing a black T-shirt, saw Ji Linshen and said respectfully, "Boss."
Ji Lin nodded deeply, walked to the sofa and sat down, crossed his legs, casually rested his arms on the armrests, and stared lazily at the man kneeling in front of him.
Seeing this, Chu Qi immediately went to pour him a glass of wine.
Ji Linshen took the wine glass and shook it gently. The ice cubes collided with the wall of the glass, making a crisp sound.
Lu Shiman stood two or three steps away from Ji Linshen, not knowing what he was going to do, nor what she was going to do.
"Chu Qi."
"Master."
"Send her to rest." Ji Linshen ordered lightly, his eyes fixed on the kneeling man.
"You look a little tired. Don't you want to sleep?" Lu Shiman looked at Ji Linshen's tired expression and couldn't help but ask.
"I'll go after I'm done with it. You go to sleep first." Ji Linshen's tone softened a little.
Lu Shiman followed Chu Qi. When she passed by the man, she took a quick glance at him, stopped after walking a few steps, and turned to look at Ji Linshen.
"Anything else?" Ji Linshen met her gaze.
"Well, we live in a society ruled by law now." Lu Shiman was afraid that Ji Linshen would kill someone.
Ji Lin chuckled deeply and waved his hand to signal Chu Qi to take her away.
"Miss Lu, please follow me."
Lu Shiman followed him in the elevator to the fifth floor. Before entering the room, she couldn't help but ask, "Did the kneeling man make a mistake?"
Chu Qi smiled slightly: "Miss Lu, that man betrayed the young master."
"So...will you beat him to death?"
"No, Miss Lu." It just made him live a life worse than death.
Lu Shiman breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had no right to ask anything, she still felt a little sorry to see someone being beaten to death.
The room is very large, and the black and gold style decoration looks extremely luxurious. It should be Ji Linshen's room.
She was really sleepy, so she fell on the bed and fell asleep in a few seconds.
In the hall.
The atmosphere was stagnant.
Ji Linshen gently stroked the wall of the cup with his fingertips, and a biting chill came through his fingertips.
Chu Qizhe returned to the hall: "Master, Miss Lu has arrived in your room."
Ji Lin nodded deeply, put the cup heavily on the table in front of him, and said indifferently: "Bring it here."
The kneeling man couldn't stop shaking when he heard him speak.
"Master, Master, I know I was wrong. I was momentarily possessed by the devil. Please forgive me for all the years I have risked my life for you."
"Going through life and death..." Ji Linshen sighed softly, took the gloves from Chu Qi and put them on.
Seeing him speak, the man thought it was helpful and begged for mercy even harder: "Master, I won't dare to do it again. Please forgive me this time. I am willing to do anything for you. Master, please..."
Ji Linshen stood up, walked slowly to the man, leaned over slightly, and held the man's neck with his gloved hands, his five fingers exerting force, his tone still calm: "A Xing, what kind of ghost could make you lose your mind and betray me?"
Looking at Ah Xing's face flushed due to breathing difficulties, Ji Linshen raised the corners of his lips and increased the strength of his hands with a happy expression.
Ah Xing couldn't utter a word, his eyes were full of fear, and he could only make hoarse sounds.
Just when he thought he was about to die, Ji Linshen let go of his hand.
Ah Xing collapsed to the ground, his body shaking violently, and he kept saying, "Forgive me, forgive me."
Ji Lin squatted in front of him and gently stroked his face with his fingers: "What a pity, Axing, I was very optimistic about you before."
"If you don't live up to your expectations, then you don't deserve to live. Don't you agree?"
"I'll tell you, Master. I'll tell you everything. Please don't kill me, don't kill me." Ah Xing knelt down again and wanted to hold Ji Linshen's feet to beg for mercy, but she didn't dare.
"What are you talking about? How could I kill someone? I'm a good citizen who abides by the law." Ji Linshen raised his lips to sneer, but the smile did not reach his eyes, instead adding a bit of chillness.
"Master, I will confess everything."
"Shh, don't be so spineless, be tougher, okay?" Ji Linshen's voice was low, and it sounded particularly gloomy in the silent hall.
Chu Qi stood aside, watching the scene expressionlessly. He was already accustomed to Ji Linshen's methods.
He took a step forward and asked in a low voice: "Master, what should we do next?"
Ji Linshen stood up straight, took off his gloves and threw them on the ground, then patted the non-existent dust on his hands, as if he had just touched something dirty.
"As usual." Ji Linshen turned around and said, "Clean it up."
Chu Qi responded and then signaled someone to drag Ah Xing away.
The hall returned to calm again, with only Ji Linshen standing there.
The sky was turning pale, and the first ray of sunlight shone through the window onto Ji Linshen.
I slowly walked to the window and looked at the gradually brightening world outside, but my heart was filled with gloom.
After washing his body, he gently pushed open the door of the room. The curtains were closed and the sunlight outside could not penetrate through the thick curtains.
There was only a dim wall lamp on in the room. The dim light made it difficult for him to see everything in the room clearly, but it was enough for him to catch a glimpse of the peaceful sleeping face of the person on the bed.
Lu Shiman curled up in the quilt, holding his arms, breathing evenly and softly.
Ji Linshen walked lightly to the bed and sat down. She moved, took out her hand, frowned, and kept pinching her hand.
"It's so numb, so numb." The unconscious mumbling and somewhat funny movements made Ji Linshen raise the corners of his mouth. He stretched out his hand and gently rubbed her fingers and palms.
She was probably the first person who could numb her hands by sleeping.
The soft touch calmed Ji Linshen's heart. His hands moved gently and his eyes were fixed on her face.
Perhaps because her hand felt comfortable, her frown relaxed and she smacked her lips, looking completely defenseless.
Lying next to her, gently hugging her waist through the quilt, burying his head in the crook of her neck, and smelling the faint fragrance on her body, Ji Linshen relaxed.
The arms around her waist tightened, greedily feeling her warmth.
When Lu Shiman woke up, Ji Linshen was still sleeping soundly, and the arm on her body felt a little heavy.
She gently took Ji Linshen's hand away, got up and went to the bathroom.
When I came back, I saw Ji Linshen without a blanket. He was curled up in a ball with his brows tightly furrowed, looking very insecure.
Lu Shiman's heart softened inexplicably, and she walked forward gently, turned the quilt over and covered him with it. As if that was not enough, she turned the other side of the quilt over and covered him with it.
Ji Linshen was wrapped in the quilt, with only his head exposed. His black hair was scattered messily. His usual fierce aura was gone, and he looked a little childish.
Lu Shiman felt a little curious, so he took out his cell phone and took several pictures of that perfect face.
Feeling it was a bit monotonous, Lu Shiman took off the small flower hairband in her hand, leaned over slightly, gathered a bunch of his hair, gently tied the hairband on, and also tidied up the loose hair on his forehead.
After doing this, she picked up her phone and took two more photos.
Looking at her own masterpiece, she covered her mouth and laughed secretly. If he didn't let her leave work next time, she would print out the photos and threaten him.
"Is it fun?"
