The Silent Mansion in Beijing.
Ji Wuchen tossed and turned in bed, the two children in his dream becoming clearer and clearer. They looked only slightly similar to Ye Ying, the classmate he was filling in for, but his manly intuition told him that it was her.
His mind was racing, and he couldn't sleep through the long night, suffering from rare insomnia.
Ji Wuchen got up, went outside to make a cup of tea, returned to his room, went to his study, and read a book while drinking tea.
………
Ye Ying was sleeping soundly, enjoying a good night's rest.
"Sister Lin, we've watched the Ye family live carefree for ten years, are we just going to do nothing...?" Xiao Jun, a henchman, asked.
Sister Lin completed her daily signature move, took a drag of her cigarette, and said irritably:
"Who knows what our superiors are thinking? Today it's this, tomorrow it's that. Today they want to beat us up, tomorrow they want to persuade us with kind words. I'm fed up. I don't know who to listen to. It's like when the devils fight, the underlings are the hardest to deal with. We're the ones who are getting into trouble..."
"We originally planned to do this job for fun, then we'd call it a day, let the brothers go back to their hometowns, build houses, have children, and retire... but plans don't always go as expected."
well……
Xiao Jun sighed and asked weakly, "Sister Lin, shall we run away...?"
Sister Lin glared at him, took two more puffs of her cigarette, and looked at him like he was an idiot. She said, "Xiao Jun, Xiao Jun, are you out of your mind? If we run away, tomorrow the brothers will have to buy coffins and erect tombstones for their families and relatives."
"Not to mention the few of us, before we even left Beijing, we were riddled with bullets, and we didn't even have a body left..."
Xiao Jun gasped, "No way...?"
Sister Lin: "How could you not? You usually see how I, your sister Lin, skin and rip out the enemy, and you're scared half to death. If you see our superiors, you'd better keep your tail between your legs. They're not easy to deal with... They're even more ruthless than me..."
"If you are timid and cowardly, they will treat you like a soft persimmon and bully you relentlessly."
Xiao Jun nodded, indicating that he had learned something.
Sister Lin threw her cigarette butt aside and said, "Xiao Jun, you'd better be smart. Don't keep asking this and that. Just do what you're told. We've known each other for over ten years, and I'm just trying to remind you. The people upstairs aren't as gentle as me... or as kind-hearted as me."
Xiao Jun...
I never expected Sister Lin to be so narcissistic and good at beautifying herself. She's clearly a wicked woman, but she insists on pretending to be a virtuous lady. I'd rather believe that my mother is going to get married or that blood will fall from the sky than believe Sister Lin's words.
Killing someone is just a matter of beheading them.
Lin Jie's daily life and work consisted of killing without blinking an eye, and Xiao Jun knew it all too well.
Although he was very small, only the size of an ant, he also had an aspirational heart.
Even ants try to survive, let alone him?
If he actually believed Sister Lin, he wouldn't be far from death. Think about his brothers before him; they all died because Sister Lin said, "We're all a group, we're all family. Family doesn't stand on ceremony. If we have any opinions or good ideas, we can speak up directly..."
His brother was also a straightforward person; he said some nonsensical things right in front of the higher-ups, things that were disrespectful to Sister Lin…
