The next afternoon, Lin Zhibai picked me up in a Land Rover Range Rover.
I got into the car, and he casually fastened my seatbelt with his hand, his movements skillful and efficient.
"I..." I was about to say that I would do it myself when he had already quickly tied it for me.
He said in an icy tone, "When you see your brother, try to persuade him! People who go against Brother Qin never end well!"
I replied politely, "Thank you!"
"Is my brother alright?" I asked again, still worried.
"He's fine!" Lin Zhibai's reply remained icy.
We then entered the Qin family home and arrived at the small house in the backyard.
From afar, I saw my brother's pale face, his head drooping, the burning light in his eyes extinguished, and he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
"Brother!" My heart ached, and I hugged him tightly.
I stared intently at his body. "Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine!" He forced a smile that was more bitter than gallnut.
I gently punched his chest. "How could you be so foolish? Why couldn't you trust me?"
My tears kept flowing, and I sobbed softly.
My brother frowned in pain, as if I had just hit him hard, and his voice was hoarse: "I don't want to see you suffer!"
Then she gently wiped away my tears.
He felt sorry for me too, and his eyes were filled with tears.
“Brother, I will get you out of here. Promise me you won’t do anything so foolish again, okay? Even if you kill him, you’ll still go to jail! How can I just watch you suffer!” I whispered in his ear.
He gently took my hand, and those hands trembled slightly...
"It's all because my brother is incompetent!" His voice was low and hoarse, filled with deep self-blame and regret.
I quickly interrupted him.
"In my heart, brother, you have always been the most amazing person! Over the years, you have taken meticulous care of me and given me a warm home."
But this time, you must trust me this once and not act rashly like before. If anything happens to you, how will I live with myself? As I said this, my eyes were full of worry and heartache.
"He didn't take his anger out on you, did he? Did he bully you?"
"No~" I shook my head, but before I could finish speaking, tears of pain streamed down my pale cheeks.
One glistening tear after another rolled down my clothes like pearls from a broken string.
"Don't cry!" Seeing me crying so sadly, my brother panicked and looked completely helpless.
I gripped his arm tightly, crying out in a hoarse voice, "Brother! If something really happens to you, I will never live on alone!"
So please, please don't do those dangerous things anymore, okay?
Hearing my words, he was taken aback at first, then slowly reached out and gently patted my shoulder, comforting me, "I'll never act rashly again. Don't cry!"
I sniffled, stopped crying, then rested my head on his shoulder and murmured, "Brother! You're my only family in this world. We must both live well!"
"Okay! From now on, I'll follow Qianqian's arrangements!" His tone was exceptionally gentle.
Before we knew it, we had been chatting for a very long time.
Just then, a soft knock on the door broke the silence inside the house.
Lin Zhibai appeared at the door at some point.
The moment he pushed open the door and stepped into the room, he saw that the woman's once beautiful and charming eyes were now red and swollen from crying, making her look incredibly pitiful.
This scene evoked a sense of pity in Lin Zhibai.
He looked at me and gently reminded me, "Miss Yao, it's getting late, you should go back!"
Hearing this, I stood up reluctantly, waved goodbye to my brother, and slowly walked towards the door.
My heart is filled with reluctance.
When I got into Lin Zhibai's car, his deep eyes immediately noticed me, still immersed in sadness.
He silently pulled out a few tissues from the side and handed them to me, his eyes filled with concern. He said softly, "Don't worry too much, he'll be fine!"
I gratefully took the tissue, wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes, and whispered my thanks to him: "Thank you!"
At this moment, Lin Zhibai was somewhat lost in thought. He stared blankly at her profile for two or three seconds before snapping out of his daze.
Then the car was started and slowly driven away from the spot.
Meanwhile, in another corner of the city.
A Rolls-Royce Phantom sedan, incredibly luxurious, was parked quietly by the wide roadside.
Inside the car, Qin Shisheng sat upright in a comfortable seat, his face gloomy.
Not long after, Jiang Zhou walked quickly to the car, opened the door, and got inside.
While fastening his seatbelt, he reported the latest situation to Qin Shisheng: "President Qin! According to Miss He, the person who told her the news was a middle-aged man. That man claimed to be your subordinate, and based on Miss He's description, he is very likely from Ms. Hu's side!"
After hearing Jiang Zhou's words, Qin Shisheng's face grew even uglier. His anger caused him to clench his fists tightly, and his knuckles turned slightly white from the excessive force.
After a moment of silence, he coldly uttered two words: "Go see her!" His voice carried an irresistible air of authority.
Upon receiving the order, Jiang Zhou dared not delay and quickly replied, "Okay!"
He then stepped on the gas and sped towards Hu Xuelian's residence.
