"Are you sure that you sent this girl on the boat?"
A face was hidden in the darkness, carrying a strong sense of oppression. Guo Fuhua, who was sitting across from him, felt as if a mountain was collapsing in front of him.
Guo Fuhua swallowed his saliva and raised his head shakily. His eyes suddenly narrowed and he said with a trembling voice, "I-I'm sure. I saw it with my own eyes."
Lin Yan's expression became more and more gloomy, as if there was a thick layer of lead clouds covering his face. It was as if, in the next second, a violent storm would arise. He stood up unhurriedly and walked straight in front of Guo Fuhua. He lowered his long and narrow eyes. His cold and sharp eyes were like an eagle, locking onto his prey.
Guo Fuhua only met Lin Yan's eyes once, but he felt as if he was being stared at by the Grim Reaper. He couldn't help but shiver and said with a trembling voice, "Yes, indeed."
"Who else was on the boat?" Lin Yan's thin lips slightly opened, his voice deep like mud.
Guo Fuhua said, "There was a man, I think, I think he was a police officer."
Police?!
Lin Yan slightly narrowed his eyes. It had been so many years, but even with Lin Yan's methods, he still didn't have a single clue. What happened back then almost toppled the entire Lin Yan family and even took the lives of Lin Yan's parents.
Even after so many years, Lin Yan still couldn't let it go. He must find the real culprit and find that girl.
"M-Mr. Mr. Lin, that's all I know. I really didn't, didn't participate in what happened back then. Please, please let me and my family go." Guo Fuhua's voice trembled even more.
Under the incandescent light, Lin Yan's eyes, which were as sharp as an eagle's, appeared clear, transparent, and incomparably distant. He closed his eyes and didn't even look at Guo Fuhua as he turned around and walked out of the room.
Guo Fuhua gasped heavily as if he had been granted amnesty. After confirming that Lin Yan had left, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
Du du du …
After a few beeps, the person on the other end of the phone picked up. A cold, indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone to Guo Fuhua's ears. "He still found you?"
…
Walking on the empty street, gusts of night wind rolled up Lin Yan's clothes. His posture was still tall and straight. The moonlight shone on his body, making his shoulders, waist, and legs even more obvious.
Half of his face was hidden in the darkness and a sea of clouds surged out of his eyes, making it impossible to see what Lin Yan was thinking at this moment.
Lin Yan got into his Cherokee and drove straight to Binhai City.
At the end of September, there was always a lot of rain in Binhai, almost one after another. The black Jeep Cherokee drove on the highway, like a black bolt of lightning, extremely fast, the taillights behind the car dragged a long light shadow, flashing past.
By the time he returned to Binhai City, it was already after midnight. In such a heavy rain, Lin Yan's body was almost not wet at all. The moment he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped.
His door was not locked. He remembered that when he left, he had locked the door.
Slightly narrowing his eyes, a touch of coldness flashed in his distant and sharp eyes.
Lin Yan gently pushed the door open and walked in quietly.
There was a faint lemon smell in the room, very light and very pleasant. He never used air fresheners at home, he liked the natural air very much, the smell that diffused in the room.
Lin Yan furrowed his brows, and an extremely small figure appeared in his eyes as he walked out of his study.
"Who?!" Lin Yan's voice was low and cold. Before the other party could react, he suddenly reached out, grabbed the other party's slender wrist, and then threw her over his shoulder.
"Lin Yan!"
Ye Zi anxiously shouted his name.
Lin Yan recognized Ye Zi's voice, and then Ye Zi hung on Lin Yan's body in a strange position.
"Let me go." Ye Zi was unhappy, and she patted Lin Yan's back hard, hoping that he would put her down.
Lin Yan carefully put Ye Zi down, frowned and stared at Ye Zi, "Why are you in my house?"
Ye Zi rolled her eyes at Lin Yan, walked to the door, turned on the light, picked up the key on the shoe cabinet at the porch, and threw it at Lin Yan.
Lin Yan caught the key, and then remembered that he had given his key to Ye Zi, and told her that she could live in his house.
Ye Zi glared angrily at Lin Yan. He was always this temperamental, sometimes warm like jade, sometimes cold like frost.
"In the future, even if you beg me to come, I won't come." Ye Zi glared at Lin Yan, took her backpack, and turned to leave.
"Wait."
Lin Yan suddenly stopped Ye Zi.
Ye Zi turned around, "Is there anything else?"
"Drink some wine with me," Lin Yan said calmly.
Drink wine?!
Ye Zi frowned, and her bright eyes scanned Lin Yan's body. She had been really depressed for the past few days, and maybe drinking some wine would make her feel better.
She pursed her lips and nodded.
She closed the door and sat on the sofa in the living room.
Lin Yan took out a bottle of red wine and two goblets from the wine cabinet in the kitchen. He placed them on the coffee table, poured two glasses of wine, and pushed one glass in front of Ye Zi.
Ye Zi didn't hesitate to raise the wine cup and drink the red wine that was like blood in the cup in one gulp.
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Zi. His red wine was the best, and it was not like the wine Ye Zi usually drank, which had a strong aftereffect. After just one glass, Ye Zi's cheeks were flushed red.
Lin Yan took a sip of the wine in his glass, and his movements were slow and elegant.
Both of them didn't say anything. They just drank their wine in silence.
One glass, two glasses, three glasses …
In the blink of an eye, Lin Yan's glass of red wine had been drunk by Ye Zi, while Lin Yan only drank one glass.
"Is, is there more?" Ye Zi looked straight at Lin Yan and asked.
Lin Yan glanced at Ye Zi, and then snatched the goblet from her hand, "You drank too much, you can't drink anymore."
"I, I didn't drink too much, I can still, still drink." Ye Zi threw herself forward, trying to snatch the goblet that Lin Yan had snatched away.
Ye Zi's body lost its balance, and she directly fell into Lin Yan's arms. His embrace was very warm and firm, and it was very comfortable to hold. Ye Zi's drunkenness got to her head, and she snuggled into Lin Yan's arms.
"Lin Yan, hehe …" Ye Zi laughed foolishly, "Lin Yan, you son of a b * tch."
Lin Yan frowned slightly. After so many years, this was the first time he had been scolded like this.
Son of a b * tch!
His face was sullen, but he couldn't be calculative with a drunk cat.
"You, you jinx, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have, wouldn't have … ugh …"
Ye Zi burped, and the smell of alcohol hit Lin Yan's face. Lin Yan gently pressed his eyebrows together. He was a germaphobe, but at this moment, he endured it and let Ye Zi hug him.
After a long time, Lin Yan carried Ye Zi and walked into the bedroom.
It seemed that every time he slept with Ye Zi, Lin Yan would feel very at ease. He seemed to have never felt that kind of feeling.
The moonlight passed through the thin curtains and shone into Lin Yan's bedroom, and reflected on Ye Zi's face. Her skin was extremely white and thin, and she had long and curly eyelashes, a small cherry nose, and two pink lips.
She was so quiet when she fell asleep, like a cat that was sleeping peacefully.
Lin Yan looked at her like this, and his eyes gradually became blurred.
If she was still here, would she be like this?
In Lin Yan's heart, he still couldn't let go of that little girl. He slowly reached out his hand and gently touched Ye Zi's plump and beautiful forehead, and unknowingly fell asleep.
"Ah!"
Early the next morning, Lin Yan was awakened by a sharp, ear-piercing scream.
Slowly opening his eyelids, what was reflected in his eyes was a little leopard that was as violent as thunder. Last night, it was as quiet as a kitten. Unexpectedly, in just one night's time, it was …
Lin Yan frowned, and really wanted to knock her out with a stick. Perhaps, only then, she could calm down.
"Bastard, rogue, shameless scum, what did you do to me last night?!" Ye Zi angrily scolded.
Lin Yan stretched his body, yawned, and slowly stood up. Suddenly, a soft pillow attacked him from behind, but Lin Yan didn't even look at it. He reached out and caught it, and then, gently placed it on the bed.
He didn't pay attention to Ye Zi, but turned around and walked out of the bedroom. In the bathroom, he brushed his teeth, washed his face, and then began to jog on the treadmill. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Ye Zi walking out. He slowly picked up the television, and the financial news began to play.
Ye Zi had no choice but to hang her head and feel the strangeness of her body. Only then did she realize that Lin Yan didn't do anything to her.
"Hey." Ye Zi moved closer to the treadmill, and blinked her clear eyes, "Last night, did I drink too much?"
Hearing this, Lin Yan slightly frowned, and the word "bastard" couldn't help but appear in his mind. He couldn't help but curl his lips, and unexpectedly, he smiled.
"What are you smiling at?" Ye Zi frowned and asked.
Lin Yan, "Nothing, just thinking about how you looked last night."
"Ah?!" When Ye Zi heard this, she couldn't help but widen her eyes. It seemed that she drank too much last night, and must have said something unspeakable. Could it be that she had scolded him behind his back?
No, no, if that was really the case, Lin Yan would definitely eat her alive.
"Did I say something?" Ye Zi asked again.
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Quite a lot."
I'm done for, I'm done for. My mouth must have said something I can't tell others.
"Can you tell me what I said to you last night?" Ye Zi persisted.
