On the way, Lin Zhi, who was upset, was suddenly stopped by Chuntao.

"Hey, master, you are going in the wrong direction."

Lin Zhi paused, glanced at it, and then realized that he was walking towards Jiang Chuting's residence unconsciously.He pursed his lips, turned around with a sullen face, and just as he took a step, he asked Chuntao: "It's so late, my mother hasn't rested yet? What do you want from me?"

Chuntao said: "Madam is not feeling well, I just want to see you."

"She's not feeling well?" Lin Zhiwen said with a terrified expression, "Why didn't you tell her earlier?" He walked forward with his hands behind his back, and his pace quickened a bit.

Chuntao said that Lin Xi had a sudden headache.When Lin Zhi arrived, the maid was rubbing her forehead with medicated oil, her face didn't look well, and her brows were also frowning.

Hearing that Lin Zhi had entered the room, Lin Xi opened her eyes with a tired smile, cheered up and said a few words to him.

Lin Xi sniffed at the tip of her nose and asked, "You smell of alcohol all over your body, how much have you drunk?"

Lin Zhi replied: "Not much, just drink some to relieve boredom."

However, Lin Xi knew why he was so drunk, her heart was already churning, but she didn't show it on her face, she just said: "Drink some hangover soup later, so as not to wake up tomorrow morning and have a headache." Then she ordered someone to prepare the soup .

Lin Zhi wanted to help her to lie down on the bed to rest, Lin Xi waved her hands, her voice was sickly and weak, "It's hard to fall asleep even while lying down, and I always... think of your father."

Lin Zhi's eyebrows twitched suddenly, and he didn't say anything. He didn't want to bring up this topic at all now.

"Lin Zhi." Lin Xi grabbed his wrist, looked at his face with fixed eyes, and said softly: "Since you have said it all, you don't like him, then let him go, don't let him go." Stay here, okay?"

"Mother, I..."

Lin Xi clenched his hand even tighter, put the other hand on his face, and interrupted him: "I know, you want to vent your anger on me, but the person he likes is not you, silly boy."

The last sentence made Lin Zhi's forehead twitch.

Lin Xi already had tears in his eyes, and said sadly: "If he doesn't have you in his heart, you can't do anything to hurt him, so why do you want to vent your anger? Just let him go, why bother wasting energy on him? This is not what I want have witnessed."

Lin Zhi tried his best to suppress the scorching anger overflowing his chest, held her hand instead, and said in a low voice: "Mom, it's not because of my face that he approached me. I'm still confident in this. I can To take revenge on him, I don't want to give up just like this, I just want to abuse his feelings and let him taste the pain. Wait for me... wait for me to vent my anger enough, and it will not be too late to drive him away. "

Lin Xi stared at him for a long time, raised her hand to touch the center of her brow, her complexion seemed even paler.

"Let me massage you." Seeing this, Lin Zhi stood behind Lin Xi and massaged her himself.

He was moving his hands, his eyes were slightly closed, and his eyes gradually drifted away.

Suddenly, I heard Lin Xi calling him, "Lin Zhi."

"Mom, tell me."

Lin Xi said with a slightly trembling tone, "Actually, before your father died, he made me swear that he would not hurt him in his life. I promised, and I did it."

Lin Zhi's movements stopped suddenly.

In what he has always known, his father was the one who was seduced and bewitched, and he always had a certain degree of partiality towards his relatives, so even the rumors back then were also part of his father. Only Jiang Chuting hated him, and he never really hated his father.

However, at this moment, when he heard these words, the anger that he had suppressed just now was ignited with a sneer, and the flames rushed straight up, causing red threads to burst out of his eyes. Gloomy and scary.

Before his father died, his thoughts were all about him, so he was just being seduced and bewitched, isn't this a mutual love?

"Chu Ran, have you ever met someone who loves each other?"

"I have."

He said it before, he has.

At that time, he was full of confidence that he would definitely replace the person he once had in his heart, but the reality slapped him mercilessly.

Then I heard Lin Xi continue: "I know your temperament, I can't hold you back, but I have already promised your father that I don't want you to do too much... So, I thought of a fastest and easiest way to end this matter. thing."

Lin Zhi said stiffly, "What method."

Lin Xi didn't look back either, she just raised her hand and pulled down Lin Zhi's right hand that was rubbing for her, and said, "Get married, you will get married right away."

Lin Zhi was suffocated, and subconsciously repeated: "Get married?"

Lin Xi's eyes were pitch black and she spoke slowly, "Yes, on the eve of my marriage with your father, his reputation was ruined by making a big fuss. You will definitely be able to find out whether he is sincere to you by taking this opportunity. If he If there is any further commotion, it means that he really cares about you, and your marriage is undoubtedly the biggest revenge for him. If he doesn't have you in his heart and doesn't care at all, then no matter how much you do, it's just because of you It's meaningless to have a face similar to your father's to take revenge on him, mother really doesn't want to break the oath she made to your father."

The only response to Lin Xi was the dead silence behind her.

Lin Xi gritted her teeth secretly, and did not force him to respond immediately, sighed lightly, and whispered fortunately: "Fortunately, you are clear-headed, and you have not been bewitched like your father, otherwise, you would be gouging out my heart , I really can’t live.”

Lin Zhi's fingertips trembled, he pulled his hand out, calmed down, returned to Lin Xi, looked at her as usual, and said, "Mother, don't think too much, the more you think about it, the more painful your head will be. Eat later." Take the medicine and rest quickly."

Lin Xi nodded, and said again: "By the way, there will be important guests coming to the Houtian Mansion, you have to greet me well."

Lin Zhi didn't even think about it, and responded casually: "Okay, I know."

Lin Zhi personally went to see if the medicine was ready, and Chun Tao hurried to Lin Xi's ear to report: "Ma'am, that man went to the young master's yard."

Lin Xi's face darkened, her five fingers clenched into fists, and just about to say something, Lin Zhi came in with the medicine.

Chuntao retreated to the side, Lin Xi drank the medicine, her expression became more and more sleepy, and she knew to Lin: "It's getting late, mother has arranged a room for you, so don't worry about it, and sleep here. Thinking of having you By the side, mother can sleep more soundly tonight."

Lin Zhi hesitated for a while before agreeing.

Lin Xi looked at him and smiled lightly in relief.

After putting Lin Xi to sleep, Lin Zhi went to take a bath and change clothes, returned to the room arranged, and lay on the bed, eyes wide open, as if possessed by a demon, and the words came back and forth in his mind - take this opportunity, You must be able to figure out whether he is sincere to you.

Really...can you figure it out?

Jiang Chuting couldn't hold back the thoughts in his heart, and came to look for Lin Zhi, but Lin Zhi didn't see him, but he saw Zhao Chengyang.

This man had saved him before, and had met him a few times before. Although he knew that Lin Zhi's friend couldn't have too much affection for him, he still nodded when he bumped into him head-on.

After Zhao Chengyang was left by Lin Zhi, he finished drinking alone in the courtyard before coming out. He didn't expect to meet Jiang Chuting just in time.

Seeing his cold and frail figure under the moonlight, Zhao Chengyang also saluted him, tapped the palm of his hand twice with the handle of the fan a little uncomfortably, walked a few steps closer, and told him kindly: "Are you looking for Zhi Lin? He was called away by his mother, and he hasn't come back yet. How about you go in and wait?" He stepped aside as he spoke, and stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation.

Jiang Chuting's expression darkened, he shook his head and said, "Thank you for letting me know, I won't go in."

Zhao Chengyang whispered someone to tell Lin Zhi the news, Jiang Chuting waited silently outside for half an hour, but he still didn't return, he turned and left.

Zhao Chengyang wanted to stop him, but he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, so he had to watch him leave.

Before dawn the next day, not long after Lin Zhi had returned to his room, Zhao Chengyang, who was staying in Lin's mansion, was fully dressed and rushed to look for him.

Lin Zhi was very strange. As a son of a rich family, although Zhao Chengyang was not lazy, he rarely got up so early.

Zhao Chengyang took a sip of tea, woke up, and asked him, "You didn't come back last night?"

"Well, my mother is not feeling well, and I'll be there with her."

Zhao Chengyang let out a long sigh, it's time for him to feel unwell.

Zhao Chengyang waved his fan and told him in a normal tone: "Last night, he came to see you."

Lin Zhi, who was originally calm, suddenly raised his eyes to look at him, but didn't answer.

Zhao Chengyang said casually: "I sent someone to invite you, but I didn't come back until he left, saying that you had already fallen asleep, so I didn't dare to disturb you."

Lin Zhi did not receive the news, and said, "What do you want me to do? I will rush back when he comes? Who does he think he is?"

Zhao Chengyang looked worried: "Oh, I don't know if he was injured or sick. His face was really bloodless. I heard that you were not here. He waited for more than half an hour before leaving. His expression was extremely sad."

Lin Zhi said coldly: "Why are you sad, can't you be sad that seeing my face can't relieve his lovesickness?" He said so, but his breath was a little confused.

He remained expressionless for a moment, and finally seemed unable to sit still.

Jiang Chuting had been in poor health before, and was injured again that day, so he knew that Zhao Chengyang was not lying when he said that he had a bad complexion.

Zhao Chengyang secretly watched Lin Zhi's fluctuating expression, and said, "Lin Zhi, I persuaded you yesterday, if you really think he doesn't love you, and you don't love him, why don't you just let him go?" , stop torturing each other."

When Lin Zhi heard this, he exploded almost immediately, and said angrily: "Go!? Why should I let him go? He lied to me, how could I let him go so easily?!"

As Lin Zhi's friend for so many years, Zhao Chengyang, as a cool-headed bystander, saw him clearly, and commented on him in two words: hard-spoken.

Now he is completely dazzled by jealousy and anger, and he has to wait until he wakes up. It's hard to listen to what others say.

Lin Zhi had two clusters of flames in his eyes, pursed his lips tightly, stood up suddenly, and strode outside.

Of course Zhao Chengyang knew where he was going, so he didn't go to poke him, lest the kid would become angry again, just shook his head and sighed silently.

Obviously caring about death or life, he also said that he didn't love others at all, and lied to himself.Don't make people feel cold, only then will you know you regret it.

The closer he got to the place where Jiang Chuting lived, Lin Zhi's footsteps slowed down instead.

He hesitated for a moment, thinking angrily why he came here, after waiting for half an hour, I had to rush to find him?Wouldn't it make him feel that I can't do without him?And what does it matter to me if he's hurt and he's sick?Will you still feel sorry for him?

Immediately turned around and returned, walked about ten steps, and stopped.

Forget it, let's go and see if he is sad. If not, it means that Zhao Chengyang is talking nonsense again, so go back and beat him up.

Finally made up his mind, he turned around and walked faster, but when he was approaching, he heard a few maids hiding behind a tree and gossiping.

The Lin Mansion has strict control over the servants, but the place is remote and deserted, and few people come here, so their speeches are much bolder than usual.

"Our young master won't really get along with that man, right? It's ridiculous."

"Everyone knew about the trouble back then, and now he's attacking the young master. This person is really shameless."

"What's the difference between a man and a man? They're both tough. I can't figure it out."

"Although, he is quite good-looking, and I can't tell how old he is..."

"What's the use of looking good? She's just a shameless vixen, with a noble face on the surface, but she might be a slut in private."

"Yes, I heard that he and Master Yun... tsk tsk tsk, many people saw it with their own eyes."

"How could Madam tolerate him staying in the mansion? I would have fainted with anger."

"Our young master obviously doesn't like him, otherwise he would be ignored after bringing him back for almost two days, probably to lock him up and humiliate him."

"Yeah, no one brought food or water. I'm still hungry. It's pitiful to say—Master!" All fell to their knees in silence, trembling slightly.

Lin Zhi's face was ashen, and he shouted angrily: "Talking about master's right and wrong behind his back? Who gave you the courage? Get off, each of you will receive twenty sticks!"

The twenty sticks in Lin's mansion are enough to keep a person unable to get out of bed for several months. Several maids kneeling on the ground turned pale and limp to the ground one after another.

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Zhi summoned a more trustworthy steward, and said coldly: "The person brought back by my young master, why is there no one to bring water and food, leaving him hungry? I wonder if you have lived enough?" gone?"

Guanshi Liu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, not daring to say a word.

As soon as Jiang Chuting entered the Lin residence, an old man from the Lin family recognized his identity.When servants do things, they are nothing more than listening to their master's orders, watching their faces, and trying to figure out their thoughts.

Lin Xi didn't say anything, but needless to say, everyone knew that she and Jiang Chuting were definitely incompatible.Although Lin Zhi put the person in a courtyard that couldn't be more biased, but his attitude was not clear, coupled with some vague rumors, he didn't know whether Lin Zhi liked or hated that person, how to deal with it was even more difficult.

Therefore, the servants had no choice but to leave him as air.Don't please, don't offend, no matter which master blames it, there is room for it.

When Lin Zhi had enough scolding, Guanshi Liu quickly said that he would start making arrangements immediately, but Lin Zhi stopped him, "Wait."

Manager Liu respectfully said, "What else can you order, young master?"

Lin Zhi took two steps back and forth with his hands behind his back, and added in a deep voice: "The food doesn't need to be prepared too complicatedly, as long as it's light and fresh, there must be enough tea and water. Also, don't make too much noise, when the time comes , just send it over quietly."
