pretty face, you can go around seducing men. Don't even think about who you really are, you're nothing but an illegitimate child. With your kind, you dare to dream of getting a swan You're delusiona...Li Lanqiu was about to go crazy. What on earth was going on Her flawless plan had ended up letting Lin Meng escape. What were those guys with guns eating They let a vulnerable woman get away, and they had guns! Not just one person either, but several, and yet they couldn't stop her!
"A mysterious person saved us. He looks pretty capable. Or maybe we've been targeted instead. You need to be more careful!"
This is a message from my teammate.
But what does it mean to be unidentified, and what does it mean to "be targeted" Are the people in the organization all eating feces They are being watched but remain oblivious, and they even tell her to "be more careful." They're holding her back, do they know that!
Lin Meng was back safe and sound, but she had to painstakingly go through each photo and arrange them, just to cover up. She even had to rack her brains to come up with a plausible excuse to answer Rong Ling's potential interrogation. All of this was thanks—or rather, "thanks"—to her teammates!
They are simply pigs!
Killing one person won't solve anything!
Had she known sooner, she would have done it herself!
Filled with resentment, she could only arrange the photos she had put away according to the original scene setup. She was fortunate that she had been careful enough to take pictures of the scene before putting the photos away. This allowed her to rearrange everything based on the previous shots. Damn it! If Lin Meng had just died like that, she wouldn't have had to do any of this. Rong Ling wouldn't have suspected her at all, and she could have seamlessly replaced Lin Meng's position!
Now everything is ruined!
Fuming, she finished the last photo and then began to carefully make a final check. Rong Ling and Lin Meng were now on their way back, she didn't have much time to waste. She took one last look at the room, nodded, and quickly slipped away, back to her own room, where she carefully removed her gloves and hid them in her suitcase. In her line of work, the most taboo thing was leaving behind unwanted fingerprints!
It was just those kinds of photos that were there. Rong Ling saw them and thought back to how Lin Meng had been shot the moment she went out, fearing it might be detrimental to her. But there was nothing she could do about it; she would just have to stay honest, deny everything, and push it all onto He Ya. That stupid woman, being a scapegoat, couldn't be better. However, she overlooked a very important, and fatal, point: Rong Ling had been back before, and she had pushed open the small study to take a look. Although it was only for a short time, what he saw in the small study was very clean. Her self-righteous remedy, her attempt at restoration, would ultimately lead to the greatest suspicion against her!
Rong Ling, Lin Meng and two other little kids came back together after that and called her.
Li Lanqiu acted as if she knew nothing, happily grinning at Rong Ling and greeting him, "You're back!"
His eyes held only Rong Ling. Towards Lin Meng, he didn't even offer a greeting. In the past, Rong Ling would have chosen to endure such situations, but today, Lin Meng's repeated encounters with danger had left him deeply agitated and furious. Even though he showed no sign of it on his face, he still wore the same indifferent expression as always, seemingly unchanged from before.
But, he's got to be ruthless!
"Tonight, I have to see you off. You should stay at my friend's place for the night first. Your parents will arrive in Kyoto tomorrow and pick you up then!"
Li Lanqiu's face immediately changed, and she instantly forced tears out of her eyes.
"You're going to send me away!" she said, her expression one of utter indignation.
Although Rong Ling had some affection for her, he did his best to give her an explanation that wouldn't shame her.
"Mengmeng was shot when she went out today, that's very dangerous. And I've been in danger before. I can't be sure who's targeting us, so this place is very dangerous now. You have nothing to do with these things, so for your own good, you need to leave!"
He thought that if she were smart, she should go down this easy path, so as not to hurt each other's face. But apparently, she wasn't as clever as he imagined!
“I won’t leave. How could I leave you when you’re in danger!” Li Lanqiu tried her best to show her deep affection, stepping forward to grab Rong Ling. However, Rong Ling reached out and embraced Lin Meng, declaring his rejection of Li Lanqiu through his intimacy with Lin Meng.
"You have to leave, for a while. One of my brothers will be back soon, and tonight you can stay with him."
"I won't go anywhere else, except by your side!"
"My mind is made up!"
If he were cruel, it would be goddamn cruel!
If he set his mind to something, no one could make him change it, except――the woman in his arms now!
Li Lanqiu burst into tears, feeling a sense of panic welling up inside her. She wondered if Rong Ling had discovered something It couldn't be, she thought to herself. She believed she had been flawless in her actions, and with the position she held in Rong Ling's heart, he shouldn't have any reason to suspect her. Besides, if he truly was suspicious, wouldn't he be acting more agitated
“I won’t leave, no one can make me. Rong Ling, you can’t be so cruel. I’ve lost my memory, and you just have the heart to drive me away! I just want to stay by your side, so you can help me recover my memories as soon as possible. You wouldn't even be willing to do this small favor!”
Rong Ling's expression was cold, only because he didn't trust anyone right now.
“All I can recall are things from high school, hardly worth mentioning. You're better off forgetting those things; there's no need to bring them back up. You've been abroad for over a decade; if you want to recover your memories, it would be more helpful to reach out to your foreign friends. As for recovering memories from when you were younger, your parents and close relatives are the ones who can truly help!” — Li Lanqiu
Rong Ling looked at her coldly. "I can't help you!"
Li Lanqiu's face paled instantly. After biting her lips hard, she clenched her fists, her chest rising and falling rapidly. Then, as if she could bear it no longer, she roared and erupted.
“You’re lying! If you really felt that way, you wouldn’t have agreed to let me move in. Besides, don’t belittle the time we spent together. To me, it was the best time of my life, a time I need to remember most. Even if I forgot everything else, I couldn’t forget those moments. And now you want me to forget!”
Tears flowed freely, Li Lanqiu gave a pitiful smile, looking even more like a weeping willow. "Rong, you're so cruel!"
"Since it's a memory that you absolutely can't forget, how could you possibly forget now!" Rong Ling countered, his voice icy cold. It was a harsh accusation, like a sword piercing through her seemingly heartfelt lie with no mercy!
Li Lanqiu immediately looked as if she had been slapped, her face turning red and then white in rapid succession. It was a truly pathetic sight!
"You go tidy up a bit, my brother will be here soon!"
A man's ruthless voice, truly like the icy winds of winter, lacked any warmth. It swept over you, and no matter how warmly dressed or thick your skin might be, you felt a chilling throughout your whole being!stigate a case, not to take your mommy away. Don't worry, don't cry."The little boy, with tears in his eyes, stubbornly said."I don't care what anyone says, people outside are all liars. Youyou has to...
