Chapter 114 It’s okay
But when he was only two steps away from the girl, Mu Lin's expression suddenly changed and he stopped abruptly.
The girl, who had no strength to fight back just now, had already turned around and stared at him, her knuckles turning white from holding the knife with such force.
"Don't come here."
She staggered back toward the door, her trembling voice full of warning.
"I knew it, Mu Lin. You are still the same as you were five years ago. How dare you still think that I can forgive you?"
Mu Lin's breathing suddenly tightened, and a cold voice came out from between his teeth.
"Jiang Wan, you are really good..."
He clenched his fists and sneered, "You're right, it was really uncomfortable in there, but I came out safe and sound. Do you really think you can pose any threat to me with just a knife like this?"
Of course, Jiang Wan didn't think that a knife like this could be of any use.
But without this knife, how could the situation become uncontrollable?
At least on the surface, it would take at least this level to solve Mu Lin's problem once and for all.
Mu Lin is like a bomb lurking in the dark. The sooner he comes out, the sooner her safety will be no longer guaranteed.
Five years ago, she knew that Mu Lin was not someone who would give up easily. After spending several years in prison, the man was apparently even more fearless, otherwise he would not have threatened her to come here.
Therefore, after receiving the news, she immediately asked Fu Qing to come over and told him not to take any action until the most urgent moment of the situation.
Shao Ting hasn't come yet. She must seize this great opportunity to completely dispel Shao Ting's suspicion of her.
She tightened her knuckles unconsciously, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
"Mu Lin, have you ever thought that letting me go is the best option for you?"
The girl's voice unknowingly began to tremble in a heart-wrenching way. Mu Lin's throat suddenly tightened and he froze in place.
After a long while, he chuckled and said expressionlessly, "Impossible, Jiang Wan, I told you, don't even think about getting rid of me."
He raised the corners of his lips: "Look at me now, do I still have a future? My life is ruined because of you. Tell me, why can you still be with other men? And I can only spy on you like a rat in the gutter?"
Jiang Wan shook his head and whispered in a trembling voice: "Mu Lin, you are hopeless."
Mu Lin's face suddenly twisted, and he roared: "Yes, I am indeed hopeless, so I will drag you with me even if I die. Jiang Wan, you are destined to..."
However, before he could finish his words, he suddenly fell silent.
After listening attentively for a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Jiang Wan, you actually called the police."
Jiang Wan was stunned and didn't hear any movement.
Mu Lin's face looked extremely ugly.
The only thing he had developed during those years in prison was his hearing. Now he could almost conclude that there were quite a few people outside, approaching from all directions.
This noise... could only be the police.
He has nowhere to escape.
Mu Lin almost gritted his teeth, his eyes twisted for a moment, but he didn't plan to escape.
Just as he had just said to Jiang Wan, he did nothing this time, and even if he was locked up, he would be able to get out soon.
Seeing that the scene was not chaotic, the police who arrived breathed a sigh of relief.
After surrounding all the entrances and exits of the first floor, the leader raised his gun and warned Mu Lin, who was standing in the middle of the first floor, in a solemn voice: "Don't act rashly! Back off, retreat ten meters away!"
Even though Mu Lin was unwilling, he knew that he couldn't confront them head-on at this time.
He suppressed his ferocious expression and was about to step back, but he saw Jiang Wan suddenly look in a certain direction, and the tears that had been lingering in his eyes fell like strings.
He heard her sobbing cry of relief.
"Mr. Shao..."
Mu Lin's eyes sharpened, and he followed her gaze, and indeed saw the figure of a very tall man.
He remembered this man. Jiang Wan got out of this man's car last night.
Even though he only saw half of the man's face in the car at that time, he was still able to recognize him by his sharp and clear outline.
The other person was standing among the policemen at this moment, staring at him like an awakened beast. His dark and cold pupils made Mu Lin feel as if his throat was strangled.
Almost instinctively, Mu Lin was told that this was definitely a man who had seen blood on his hands.
How ridiculous.
That man is gone, and there is another man like this by Jiang Wan's side.
It was not until this moment that he finally realized that he might never get Jiang Wan in this life.
But he has been thinking about it for five years.
How could he be willing to accept this?
The police around him kept urging him to step back, and the warning tone in their voices became increasingly strong.
Mu Lin stared at Jiang Wan's hopeful eyes, and his whole body suddenly began to tremble uncontrollably.
The resentment and unwillingness in my heart reached their peak at this moment.
He wants to die with Jiang Wan.
Since he can't get it, no one else can get it either.
Almost at the moment this thought came to his mind, he gritted his teeth and rushed to Jiang Wan, grabbed her right hand and tried to snatch the knife from her.
However, before he could even grab the handle of the knife, he heard two loud gunshots in succession, "bang" and "bang".
The piercing pain in his arms caused Mu Lin to fall to the ground. Cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead and a painful howl came from his throat.
In his blurred vision, he saw the man called Mr. Shao by Jiang Wan slowly lower his arm, hand the gun in his hand to the person next to him, and then walk towards him.
He was soon handcuffed and put on a stretcher.
The overly bloody scene made Jiang Wan's legs go weak, but fortunately someone grabbed him in his arms before he fell to the ground.
The man's cold and slow voice fell into my ears.
"never mind."
She finally reacted and put her arms around the man's waist tightly, buried her head in his chest, and cried with tears in her eyes.
"Mr. Shao...I thought I was really going to die..."
Shao Ting only felt a hot and wet feeling on his chest, and his heart seemed to be heating up as well.
After a while, he whispered, "As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you."
*
At this time, Mu Lin, who was carried into the ambulance, had not completely lost consciousness.
The severe pain had spread throughout his body, but he had experienced this feeling once before and did not even faint from the pain.
He half-closed his eyes numbly, almost anticipating the outcome.
But until this moment he was still unwilling.
Until this moment he was still thinking that if he still had a chance to get out, he would definitely kill Jiang Wan directly.
What is Jiang Wan doing at this moment?
I should cry in that man's arms.
When Mu Lin thought of that scene, his chest felt like it was cut by a blunt knife.
This pain almost overshadows the physical pain.
Until... a vague, familiar voice suddenly came to his ears, which made his hair stand on end.
"You wouldn't have died."
This sound...
Mu Lin's pupils suddenly widened, and his consciousness returned a little bit almost instinctively.
He tried hard to open his eyes, but could only see half of the man's face under the brim of his hat.
But just this half face was enough to recognize the man's identity.
Mu Lin suddenly began to tremble, all the muscles and bones in his body were twitching. He opened his lips to shout something, but the next moment the man cut half of his throat.
Even as blood was dripping from his mouth, he still mouthed the man's name with great anger.
A faint laugh escaped from the man's nose.
"You remembered it wrongly. Didn't you say it yourself?"
"I don't have a name. I'm Jiang Wan's dog."
