"For ?" Lin Chuan was even more startled.
"That's right, it's all for you." Yang Zi said earnestly, "Everything I've done is for the sake of being with you and to be able to help you in your career."
"Impossible!" Lin Chuan shook his head.
"If any word I say is false, I would rather be struck by lightning." Yang Zi raised her hand to swear, her face solemn, and her eyes shining with a firm, clear light. Lin Chuan had seen through countless people, and this ti he saw the sincerity in Yang Zi's heart as well. Yang Zi said seriously, "Lin Chuan, if soone really has to be held responsible, you are the true murderer!"
Lin Chuan was taken aback, his eyes filled with confusion.
"I..." Lin Chuan was stupefied.
"What do you think, are you still going to report ?" Yang Zi asked with a composed smile, "If you really want to report to the public security authorities, I don't mind. I am willing to be sent to prison by the man I love. However, I don't think you need to report , because I can be of great help to you. The Liu Group is now under my control, and with its abilities, it can provide significant assistance to Sichuan University Group. What do you think?"
"I don't need it," Lin Chuan shook his head, his tone resolute.
"No, you will need it." Yang Zi let out a cold laugh, revealing a sinister smile at the corner of her mouth.
"Yang Zi, you've really changed," Lin Chuan said with a bitter smile.
Yang Zi was taken aback, then quickly reverted to her gentle and charming deanor. Holding Lin Chuan she said, "Lin Chuan, I haven't changed. Really, I haven't. You have to believe . I am still that Yang Zi, the one you have deeply loved since high school. If you wish, I can sacrifice anything for you at any ti. My heart is yours, my body is yours, and my wealth is also yours. Lin Chuan, I want to be with you."
Lin Chuan gently pushed Yang Zi away, saying, "I'm sorry, I am not the Lin Chuan you are looking for."
Having said that, Lin Chuan slowly walked towards the exit.
"Stop right there!" Yang Zi shouted.
Lin Chuan stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and smiled, "Yang Zi, if you don't want others to know, don't do it yourself. I won't report you, but you should take care of yourself."
With that, Lin Chuan strode out confidently.
"Stop, you stop right there!" Yang Zi roared furiously.
No matter how hysterically she yelled, Lin Chuan completely ignored her. He disappeared from view. Yang Zi collapsed into a chair. Her eyes blazed with intense fury, all she had sought and desperately wanted was slipping away from her at this mont. The frustration and bitterness in her heart erupted instantaneously.
Bang...
Yang Zi violently threw the computer on the desk out. The Apple computer imdiately shattered into several pieces. In a fit of hysterical rage, she shouted, "Lin Chuan, I will make you co back and beg , you will definitely co back and beg !"
Lin Chuan's departure made her very upset and deeply saddened.
All that she had done, all her actions, were for Lin Chuan. Yet, Lin Chuan did not appreciate it and instead drifted further away.
"Chairman Yang, what's the matter?" The secretary hurriedly entered.
"Get out, get out!" Yang Zi bellowed furiously.
"Yes, yes!" The secretary fled in panic, quickly shutting the door behind her.
Lin Chuan left the Liu Group and was very upset on his way back. He never expected Yang Zi to beco what she was today. Moreover, her transformation into what she has beco today was greatly related to him. If they hadn't crossed that line that night, perhaps there would be no entanglent between them. Yet, he did get involved with her, and looking back at that night, he was incredibly excited.
Now in retrospect, he indeed made a mistake that any man might make that night. Lin Chuan felt an imnse sense of self-bla.
Perhaps, it was that night that left an expectation in Yang Zi's heart, having her taste the happiness a woman deserves. That's why she resorted to every possible ans to kill Liu Shaoqi. If it wasn't for that, Liu Shaoqi would not have died, Tang Jian would not have died. Yang Zi would not have beco what she is now.
None of this, he could not absolve himself of. Yang Zi was right; he was the murderer.
Lin Chuan drove dazedly to the City Committee.
The security of the City Committee saw Lin Chuan's car from afar and quickly raised the boom gate, standing at the entrance to greet Lin Chuan. He didn't respond and just drove in.
In the staff lounge of the logistics departnt.
A group of people were chatting, playing cards, and reading novels noisily.
Lin Chuan's entrance didn't catch their attention, but Luo Guoqing saw him and quickly waved, "Lin Chuan, you look like a walking corpse, has sothing happened?"
"Not really." Lin Chuan shook his head, then handed Luo Guoqing a cigarette, saying, "Here, have one."
"No thanks, I just had one." Luo Guoqing shook his head.
"The City Committee seems to have been pretty quiet lately, huh?" Lin Chuan said with a smile.
"You can say that!" Luo Guoqing nodded, saying, "Song Hao died, and now Song Ming has no desire to govern. Secretary Tang is in control of the political scene. Moreover, a month ago, Song Ming's people were purged. More than half of the people under Song Ming were taken away—so were placed under discipline inspection, so were jailed, others fled... Now Song Ming has lost the montum he used to have."
"No wonder," Lin Chuan nodded.
At this mont, the Song brothers entered from outside, and their eyes imdiately landed on Lin Chuan.
"Oh, Lin Chuan, you're here," Song Wen hurried over, quickly pulled out a pack of He Tian Xia cigarettes, and smiled, "Co on, have one."
Lin Chuan looked at him with so surprise, accepted the incomprehensible cigarette, and Song Wu hurried to light it for him. The two brothers had the countenance of obsequious servants, treating Lin Chuan with utmost respect, as if Lin Chuan was their master.
After the two approached the card ga, Luo Guoqing laughed and said, "See that? Even these two brothers have realized that Song Ming's influence is waning; that's why they can't act arrogant anymore. Their attitude towards others has suddenly improved a lot, and they seem very respectful."
"Mhm," Lin Chuan nodded and said, "I was just confused about that. Those who don't know better might think these two guys have had their brains scrambled."
"It's good that they're behaving now; I'm just worried these two might still cause trouble," Luo Guoqing said with a chuckle.
Lin Chuan sat in the lounge for a while, his mind still in disarray. So, he decided to check on Tang Yung's office.
After going upstairs, he heard a burst of intense arguing coming from the office.
"Bai Yifan, get out of here," Tang Yung said angrily.
"Tang Yung, I never imagined you'd fall out with over soone like Lin Chuan," Bai Yifan's voice ca from inside.
"I can't believe you turned out to be such a despicable, shaless, and vile scrote," Tang Yung was furious as she pushed Bai Yifan towards the door, but he pushed back, sending Tang Yung flying back. She was no match for him and instantly fell to the ground.
Lin Chuan rushed in imdiately, grabbing Bai Yifan's arm with one hand, angrily saying, "Bai Yifan, how dare you hit a woman?!"
"I'll hit you too," Bai Yifan turned around, swinging his fist towards Lin Chuan.
Seeing this, Lin Chuan imdiately caught his fist and twisted hard.
Crack...
Bai Yifan's arm was imdiately twisted out of shape. He scread in pain, frantically twisting his body to follow the movent of Lin Chuan's arm while begging for rcy, "Ouch, it's killing , it's killing . Let go of , release !"
"That's for hitting a woman!" Lin Chuan scolded.
At this ti, Tang Yung got up from the ground. Bai Yifan pleaded, "Let go, it hurts... it hurts!"
"Sis, are you okay?" Lin Chuan looked at Tang Yung.
"I'm fine," Tang Yung shook her head, looking dejected.
"Sis, tell how you want to teach him a lesson, I'll listen to you," Lin Chuan said imdiately.
But Tang Yung shook her head: "Let him go; I never want to see him again."
"Sis, he bullied you; how can we let him off so easily?" Lin Chuan was not pleased.
"Let him go," Tang Yung repeated.
"Alright!" Lin Chuan nodded.
Having no choice, Lin Chuan reluctantly let go. Bai Yifan angrily said, "Bastard, you nearly dislocated my arm."
"I didn't break your arm, and that's already showing rcy. What more do you want?" Lin Chuan glared at him fiercely and threatened, "Don't believe for a second that I won't rip your arm off right now!"
Frightened, Bai Yifan quickly backed away several steps.
"Scram now, or don't bla for not being polite!" Lin Chuan glared furiously at Bai Yifan.
Bai Yifan clenched his teeth and said, "Just you wait, I'll get back at you both!"
Never having fully committed to act against Lin Chuan and Tang Yung, this ti he finally made up his mind. He decided to find a way to deal with Lin Chuan and Tang Yung after he left. Bai Yifan, still fuming, walked out of the City Committee building and drove away in his white rcedes.
In the office, Tang Yung's eyes were red, and she choked up repeatedly.
"Sis, what's wrong?" Lin Chuan asked anxiously.
"It's nothing!" Tang Yung shook her head.
"Did he bully you?" Lin Chuan asked.
"No!" Tang Yung said between sobs, "I just never thought he'd beco soone like this. He's changed; he's no longer the Bai Yifan who was knowledgeable and who used to talk to about the world, discuss current affairs. Now, all he thinks about is possession, all he wants is to take."
"What did he say to you?" Lin Chuan asked.
"He wanted to give him the land of the Changlin Factory," Tang Yung sighed, "I told him the land of the Changlin Factory has already been sold to you, but he didn't believe . He also insulted , calling a whore, a cheap woman begging at your feet..."
Tang Yung was almost choked up to tears and couldn't continue.
