Lin Yan did not know why Ye Zi would follow him here. It was a quiet night, and a girl like her …
Did she not have any sense of safety at all?
"Why are you following me?" Lin Yan's thin lips parted slightly as he asked in a low voice.
Ye Zi pursed her lips tightly until they were completely devoid of color. She then relaxed her lips and furrowed her brows. After a long silence, she said, "I followed the murderer here."
"Suspect?" When Lin Yan heard this, he stared at her in confusion.
The corners of his lips curled up into a devilish and wild smile. It was as if he was a completely different person from the Young Master Lin that Ye Zi usually saw. He approached Ye Zi and raised his eyebrows slightly. He lowered his voice and blew his hot breath on Ye Zi's face. "Do I look like a murderer to you?"
Ye Zi subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She stared at Lin Yan, and a sense of nervousness welled up in her. Her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, and the tip of her nose was slightly cold. Her legs felt as though they were filled with lead, and she couldn't muster up any strength.
"Ha!"
In a flash, Lin Yan couldn't help but laugh. He raised his hand and lightly knocked Ye Zi's forehead. "Idiot."
Ye Zi rubbed her forehead and stared at Lin Yan without blinking.
"There's no murderer here." Lin Yan laughed. "This is a factory under the Lin Group. It hasn't started construction yet."
Ye Zi bit her lower lip. Her nervousness didn't lessen at all.
Wu Xinyi had mentioned that she recognized Lin Yan's back. Lin Yan had appeared in a hotel near K University. Could it be Lin Yan?!
But on second thought, Ye Zi didn't think so. After all, Lin Yan's identity …
Fang Tao was just an ordinary college student. Even if Lin Yan wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't do it himself.
Could it be that Wu Xinyi was mistaken?
Or perhaps, Lin Yan had only gone to the hotel that day to get a room with someone else …
With this thought, Ye Zi couldn't help but blush. She actually remembered the first time she met Lin Yan, in Room 419 …
"What's wrong?" Lin Yan frowned when he saw Ye Zi standing still.
Ye Zi shook her head. "No, nothing."
She was afraid that Lin Yan would notice something. If that guy knew that she was thinking about the first time they met, would he …??????
Buzz buzz …
As Ye Zi followed Lin Yan into the factory, her cell phone suddenly vibrated.
She then remembered that when she followed Lin Yan here, she had sent Chen Mo a WeChat message. When she opened WeChat, there were already dozens of voice messages from Chen Mo. Only then did Ye Zi reply to Chen Mo, "Brother Chen Mo, I followed the wrong person."
Chen Mo drove his Jeep at an extremely fast speed. In the dark of the night, the two headlights were like two streaks of lightning, dragging long shadows in the dark. In an instant, they whizzed past on the road.
His heart was already tangled up in a knot. He was afraid that something bad would happen to Ye Zi.
It wasn't until he received Ye Zi's WeChat message that Chen Mo's hanging heart finally returned to its original position.
Chen Mo suddenly slammed on the brakes. The army-green Jeep came to an abrupt stop in the dark of the night.
In the end, she still ended up with Lin Yan.
Chen Mo smiled bitterly. After waiting for so many years, he still couldn't open his mouth. He had been suppressing his emotions with all his might, but he still couldn't find a way to vent them. He tightened his grip on his cell phone, but he still couldn't make the call.
After a long time, Chen Mo turned the car around and sped in the direction of the Municipal Crime Squad.
Lin Yan looked at Ye Zi. He only felt that this little girl could actually disregard her own life for Ye Xinrou. She actually followed him to the suburban industrial park so late at night.
Ye Xinrou was only her sister in name. Did she have to risk everything for her?
"Ye Zi," Lin Yan suddenly called out softly.
"Huh?" Ye Zi frowned and looked at Lin Yan. "What's wrong?"
Seeing Lin Yan's gaze, Ye Zi thought that there was something on her face. She raised her hand and touched her face. "Is my face dirty?"
Lin Yan replied, "No."
Ye Zi frowned and asked. "Then why are you looking at me like that?"
Lin Yan replied, "I like it."
Ye Zi pursed her lips. It seemed that there were only two people in the huge factory, Lin Yan and her. Even the sound of their voices echoed. "Are you staying here tonight?"
"No." Lin Yan was still a man of few words.
"Oh." Ye Zi nodded. Fortunately, Lin Yan still had to go back to the city. In this case, she could still hitch a ride with him. "Then let's go back together?"
Lin Yan nodded. "I still have some work to do. You stay here and wait for me."
His voice was extremely soft and indifferent. His hand landed lightly on Ye Zi's shoulder, yet it seemed extremely heavy. He turned around and naturally let go of the hand that was on Ye Zi's body. Ye Zi sneaked a glance at him. In her heart, there was actually a feeling of reluctance to part with him.
It was very late at night and it was very quiet outside.
Ye Zi took a nap and sat in the office, waiting for Lin Yan to finish his work.
After a long while, Ye Zi paused and slowly opened her eyes. She saw that Lin Yan was still working at his desk. His brows were so handsome, strong and elegant. He was frowning as if he had met with some trouble.
"Clang."
Suddenly, a loud sound interrupted Lin Yan's thoughts. He looked up and met Ye Zi's eyes.
Their eyes met and Ye Zi's face suddenly turned red. "You, what are you looking at?"
She pursed her lips and quickly avoided Lin Yan's gaze.
"Someone is coming!" Lin Yan lowered his voice. He only said these four words, but it made her scalp go numb.
Ye Zi narrowed her eyes and bit her lower lip. She quickly stood up and walked in front of Lin Yan. Lin Yan also stood up at this moment and waved to the side, indicating for Ye Zi to stand behind him.
Lin Yan turned off the lights in the office and stood by the window on the fourth floor. He looked into the factory and clearly saw a figure swaying into the factory. That person must have drunk too much.
The factory had a night watchman, but judging from this person's height, it should not be.
"Clang."
The sound of glass being thrown on the ground was heard. That person walked straight into the room where the night watchman was resting. After that, there was no more sound in the factory.
Compared to Lin Yan's vigilance, Ye Zi was much more shocked. At this moment, she could clearly see that the person's back was 90% similar to Lin Yan's. He was no less than 185 cm tall. Perhaps, like Lin Yan, he had a fitness habit, so his figure was excellent.
Ye Zi gently tugged at Lin Yan's sleeve and said in a low voice, "This person's back is very similar to yours."
Lin Yan frowned. "Is that all I'm like?"
"No." Ye Zi furrowed her brows. "Didn't I just tell you that I followed the suspect here? I thought it was you."
Lin Yan closed his eyes. "Are you sure it's him?"
Ye Zi shook her head. "I just heard from Wu Xinyi that he knows the back. He also appeared at the hotel that day."
Lin Yan stared at Ye Zi and said, "You stay here. No matter what happens, don't come out."
After that, Lin Yan walked out of the office on the fourth floor.
"Lin Yan."
Ye Zi huffed and called out softly.
Lin Yan stopped and turned to look at Ye Zi. "Is there anything else?"
Ye Zi frowned and bit her lip. She subconsciously clenched her fists and said word by word, "Be careful."
Lin Yan nodded and walked downstairs quickly.
Outside the night watchman's lounge, Lin Yan stopped in his tracks and looked inside. Under the dim light, a young man was holding a glass of wine and pouring a mouthful into his mouth. Then, he hung his head, looking dispirited.
"Damn it!"
After a long time, he cursed angrily.
Then, the man stood up and smashed the empty wine bottle in his hand onto the ground with all his might, smashing it into pieces.
"Bam!" Ye Zi, who was in the office on the fourth floor, heard a crisp sound. She shivered for no reason and tiptoed to look downstairs.
Lin Yan was still standing outside the door. He looked into the room calmly.
Ye Zi was very curious. Who was the man in the room?
She tiptoed downstairs and stood behind Lin Yan.
Lin Yan heard soft footsteps. He suddenly turned around and threw a fierce punch. When it was less than an inch away from Ye Zi's face, Lin Yan suddenly realized that the person was Ye Zi. His punch suddenly stopped.
Lin Yan used a voice that only the two of them could hear and asked Ye Zi, "Why did you come down? Go back. "
Ye Zi pursed her lips and shook her head. She wanted to stay. She wanted to stay by Lin Yan's side.
Lin Yan knew that he couldn't change her stubbornness. He shook his head helplessly and held Ye Zi's hand.
Her hand was extremely cold. It was as if all the blood in her body was flowing back to her heart. Lin Yan knew that she was afraid. He could only use this method to relieve her anxiety.
"F * ck!"
The man in the room cursed. Then, he knelt on the ground dejectedly. He grabbed his hair and burst into tears.
He looked like he was in extreme pain. In a flash, he started to slap his face. Slap slap slap … One slap after another. Each slap was harder than the last. It was as if he didn't know pain. He was so focused on self-abuse that he didn't notice that there were two people staring at him from outside the door.
After a while, the man seemed to be tired. He knelt on the ground and sobbed.
Ye Zi held Lin Yan's hand tightly. She didn't even dare to breathe. She just stood behind him.
"Bang."
The factory's metal door opened again. A beam of light shone on Lin Yan and Ye Zi. Then, a middle-aged man with a hunched back stepped over the threshold and walked into the factory. He saw two people standing outside the night watchman's lounge.
"Who are you people?"
The night watchman's roar not only startled Lin Yan and Ye Zi, but it also startled the man in the room. Wonderful! (
