Chapter 1317: Chapter 1317: Blood Debt Must Be Paid in Blood (3)
After Lin Zhi finished speaking her piece, she instructed the servant to “show the guest out.”
Once Lan Lin was ushered out of the villa, Lin Zhi sat on the sofa, lost in thought. Taking revenge should have been gratifying, so why didn’t she feel happy at all?
Over the years, she had been obsessing over these people from the past, wasn’t it all so that one day she could return the humiliation she suffered back in full asure?
Lin Zhi didn’t know how long she had been sitting in the living room until it grew dark. Only then did she snap out of it and asked the servant, “Has Ye Zheng not co ho yet?”
Ordinarily, at this ti, he would have been back from work. If he had a business engagent or dinner arrangents, he would call ho in advance to let her know.
Today, with no phone call and no sight of him, sothing seed off.
The servant shook their head: “Mr. Ye hasn’t returned yet, should Madam give him a call?”
Thinking it over, Lin Zhi found it reasonable and placed the first call, but no one answered.
She furrowed her brows in confusion and dialed again. This ti, the call connected, but it was Su Hongxing’s voice that answered, “Is this Madam Lin? Mr. Ye is currently unavailable to take calls.”
Lin Zhi stood up abruptly: “Su girl?!”
“Does Madam Lin know where I am? Why don’t we play a little riddle ga?” Su Hongxing said, revealing a specific date.
Lin Zhi listened, her complexion turned pale. She rembered that day—it was the day Ye Qilan died.
“Su girl, if you have an issue, co at ; don’t harm Ye Zheng. He knows nothing about what I’ve done,” Lin Zhi said before hastily leaving the living room.
She told the driver to start the car and gave an address.
She guessed that Su Hongxing should be at the place where Ye Qilan died.
If Su Hongxing was there, then Ye Zheng should also be there.
Before reaching the destination, Lin Zhi made several calls, only slightly relieved when she had mustered enough manpower.
She had once hoped that certain things would forever remain uncovered, but the way things had turned out, it showed that secrets can’t be kept forever.
What’s destined to co will inevitably arrive.
When Lin Zhi arrived at the old house, Su Hongxing sat in the dilapidated living room. Not far from her, in the corner, was the disheveled Cao Shiyu.
Cao Shiyu trembled and cowered in the corner, her gaze vacant, her face gaunt and emaciated, a shadow of a person, clearly in an abnormal ntal state.
Lin Zhi sat down opposite Su Hongxing, her voice taut, “Su girl…”
Su Hongxing handed Lin Zhi a wooden box, “Madam Lin, we’ve known each other for so long, yet I’ve never given you a present. This is specially prepared for you, please accept it with my complints.”
Lin Zhi saw the wooden box and her forehead twitched. Hesitating for a mont, she opened it and inside was a bloody piece of flesh.
After glancing at it, she quickly averted her eyes.
“This was carved from Ye Zheng’s body, does it pain your heart seeing this?” Su Hongxing asked faintly.
Lin Zhi clenched her fists tightly, her eyes red with anger, “He knew nothing about these matters, he never got involved from beginning to end, why did you drag an innocent person into this?!”
“You claim he’s innocent, so do you think I’m innocent?” Su Hongxing retorted.
Lin Zhi was at a loss for words, and it took her a long while to respond in a hoarse voice, “I simply did what I had to do.”
“I also simply did what I had to do. My man died in front of ; he gave his life trying to protect . As his fiancée, it’s only natural for to seek vengeance for him, to find the real culprit behind the scenes, don’t you think it’s my righteous duty?” Su Hongxing questioned her repeatedly.
Lin Zhi was once again rendered speechless by Su Hongxing.
