Chapter 21: Succession to the Head of the Family

"Impossible, impossible......" Lin Heng had lost his mind at this time, and just kept muttering to himself there.

"Someone! Press Lin Heng down for me! Miss Ben personally interrogated! Su Xing said. Those family soldiers looked at Lin Heng and didn't dare to step forward, after all, Lin Heng had been the head of the family for so many years, and he was still very prestigious in the Lin family.

"What? What I said didn't work, did it? Su Xing's aura was full at this time, and he was not angry and arrogant. Those soldiers were shocked at a glance.

"Now that my Lin Mansion has a lot of affairs, there is no need to hold a succession ceremony. Costly. Su Xing said. The new head of the family will definitely encounter a lot of resistance when he takes office, and Lin Heng must have many henchmen who have been in charge of the Lin family for so many years, and they must be eliminated one by one. If the succession ceremony is held again, I don't know how many people will take advantage of it to mess around.

As soon as Su Xing's words fell, a beautiful word sounded below.

"Miss Lin looks really bold."

"This brother is better than the lowly people on the side branch."

......

Lin Heng, who was praised just now, became a lowly person in the side branch at this time, human nature is always complicated, sincerity will always be mixed with falsehood, I don't know how much lowliness is hidden in nobility, and how much kindness is hidden in depravity.

It was dusk, and the crowd had dispersed.

"Yun'er......" Du Xiang came over, his face full of tears.

"Little aunt, there is no need to say any more, Lin Heng...... Mortal! Su Xing knew that Du Xiang would definitely come to her for Lin Heng's business, but Su Xing had to avenge the murder of his father and mother!

"Yun'er, I know that my husband is sorry for you. It doesn't matter if you kick him out of the house, or if you abolish his martial arts. But I beg only you, that you will spare him a life. Du Xiang said with a crying voice, for her, Lin Heng is all she has.

"I'm sorry, I can't." Su Xing really couldn't show mercy to his enemies.

"Okay, I got it." After hearing this, Du Xiang suddenly became unexpectedly calm, and said lightly: "Then you...... Take me to meet him. ”

"Okay."

When the two of them reached the cell, it was completely dark, and there were only a few stars in the ink-like sky, glowing faintly and indistinctly. Du Xiang looked at the sky like this and let out a long sigh, and then as if he had made some major decision, his eyes were full of determination.

The cell was very damp, and the heavy smell of blood was mixed with a faint musty smell, which was so bad that it was disgusting, and from time to time there were the voices of prisoners in pain. How can Du Xiang say that the conditions at home are also good, where have you ever been in this kind of place? Sure enough, not long after she came in, her face became pale, but she still endured to go down with Su Xing. The two walked down the damp path, and because the cells that went further inside were separated from the cells outside, the more they walked inside, the painful voices and shouts of the prisoners gradually disappeared, and finally calmed down. When I walked to the innermost part, there was no sound in my ears, only a deathly silence.

Walking to the deepest cell, Su Xing stopped and said softly: "It's here." ”

Sure enough, I saw Lin Heng leaning against the wall, his eyes closed, embarrassed, but still with a smile on his face.

"Husband......" Du Xiang called softly, gentle as usual.

Hearing this voice, Lin Heng sat up from the ground suddenly. "Ah Xiang, why are you here?"

"Husband and wife are one, and naturally where you are, I will be there." Du Xiang saw a smile on Lin Heng's face.

"You go! Who wants you to come! Less self-inflicted and more sentimental! Wife? Lao Tzu married you just because you are Qin Lan's friend and can help me ascend to the position of the head of the family! Lin Heng suddenly yelled at Du Xiang. This is the first time that Lin Heng has yelled at her for so many years since they got married.

"Yun'er, you open the cell door, I want to go in." Du Xiang was not angry, and his face was terrifyingly calm when he said this to Su Xing.

"What are you doing in here! Get out! Hearing Du Xiang's words, Lin Heng almost collapsed and shouted.

"Don't be afraid, husband, Ah Xiang will always be with you." Du Xiang still had a gentle and calm face.

"You...... What's the trouble with that? Lin Heng sat on the ground as if he had been drained of his strength. He knew that with the friendship between Du Xiang and Qin Lan, Lin Yun would definitely treat Du Xiang politely, so why did she bother to go to this prison with him to suffer.

"Because we are husband and wife, in this life, I will follow you, life and death!" Du Xiang walked over and hugged him gently, without the despair of dying, his face was calm, and his eyes were full of determination.

"Okay." Lin Heng hugged Du Xiang and said lightly. He is just a concubine in a side branch of the Lin family, even if he always flatters and compliments with a smile, he is still stared at and bullied; Even though he lived carefully, there were still people who kept making trouble for him; Even though he worked diligently every day, his father turned a blind eye to his efforts. Why! Why was he born to accept such injustices! Later, he saw Lin Yun's father at a family banquet, with a sword at his waist and a brocade dress. At that moment, he understood, it was power! Only when he becomes strong will others be in awe of him and truly see him as a human being!

Later, he went to get acquainted with him, the elder brother of the main family. He appreciates himself very much, and with his strength, Lin Heng climbs up step by step, rising higher and higher, and his ambitions and desires are also getting bigger and bigger. The face of the spring breeze is still smiling in front of people, but behind it has begun to contact Luoyu Palace. What he wanted was also changed from his pitiful self-esteem to the position of the head of the Lin family with infinite scenery. There are more and more pictures in my heart. He originally married Du Xiang in order to quickly ascend to the position of the head of the family. It was only later that he found out that this gentle and virtuous woman really cherished him, loved him, and respected him. But so what, she still can't compare to the position of head of the family he wants! So after a short hesitation, he still killed her friend Qin Lan and the previous door master, and finally ascended to the position of door master.

Sometimes, people wear the mask so seamlessly that they think that in the process of wearing the mask, they actually become the same person as the mask. After becoming the master of the door, he still has a smile on his face, as if it has become a habit, even if he is now high up and does not need to please anyone. It is also because of this mask that his prestige in the martial arts has gradually increased, making it even more unattainable for all those who once looked down on him.

However, it wasn't until Du Xiang found him at this time when he was about to die. Only then did he realize that all the powers in this world could not match the true heart of the person he loved.

"Hehehe......" Lin Heng suddenly laughed, ridiculous! It's ridiculous! It turns out that he has lived such a ridiculous and ridiculous life in this life!

Su Xing sighed helplessly when he saw this scene, closed the prison door, and left.

When I went to see it again the next morning, only the bodies of Du Xiang and Lin Heng were left in the cell. The two hugged each other, and Lin Heng was still holding a dagger in his hand, which should have been brought by Du Xiang when he came. Lin Heng had a smile on his face, only he knew that the smile this time was real.

Because this person who wears a mask and has done bad things all his life, after all, when he left, he took off his mask in front of his beloved and changed back to his original appearance......
