After Lin Qingqing went up, Ou Yuanlan drove away. In fact, tonight, he has been comforted. Perhaps it was the right decision to take her to this family dinner.

But Lin Qingqing on the other side didn't have time to calm down, and he was frightened again. As soon as the elevator door opened, she was about to go to her bag to find the key, when suddenly a dark shadow appeared in front of her.

"Qingqing, why did you come back so late?" Lin Yan's voice used to be like a sweater sun-dried in winter, which made people feel very warm. But now, the familiar sound just made her sick to her stomach.

Lin Qingqing took a few steps back, with caution in his eyes. "What are you doing?" She asked coldly.

Now between the two, there is no explanation, no greeting, just calculation and fear. Thinking about the pure them before, Lin Qingqing sometimes felt that this was as unreal as a dream. Maybe one day, she woke up from her dream, and the two of them were still walking on the high school campus.

Even though the light in the corridor was relatively dim, Lin Yan still clearly saw the vigilant look on Lin Qingqing's face. "Qingqing, why are you so afraid of me now?" He pretended not to be aware.

"Huh." Lin Qingqing sneered. "Lin Yan, this is your own choice." Indeed, it was his choice. When he decided to just use Lin Qingqing as an object of use, the two were destined to face off one day.

But this seems to be just Lin Qing's list, Lin Yan doesn't think so. "Qingqing, you can't say that, you are still a member of the Lin family after all." He is now starting to play the emotional card.

The Lin family, Lin Qingqing doesn't want to be a member of the Lin family in his life. If it weren't for the fact that she had no name or surname, she didn't even know who her father was, so she followed the Lin family's surname. Now that she thinks about it, this is probably the thing she regrets the most. Once she was a member of the Lin family, she was destined to have a bumpy life.

"I'd rather I wasn't a member of the Lin family." Lin Qingqing said word by word, from the bottom of his heart.

Lin Yan shook his head. "But Qingqing, you know, you can't deny it. Isn't it? He knew Lin Qingqing too well, and with just one glance, he could see through what the woman in front of him was thinking.

If the enemy on the opposite side is thousands of troops, Lin Qingqing will not be afraid at all, the big deal is to be crushed. But she was afraid that the person on the other side knew her too well, and this feeling was like appearing naked in front of others, allowing others to eat her.

The meaning of this sentence is not that Lin Qingqing doesn't understand, she just doesn't want to understand. There are many things she thinks that if she doesn't face them, she can always hide them and pretend they didn't exist. But there will always be many people who try their best to remind her how real that bloody past is.

Seeing Lin Qingqing's collapse, Lin Yan seemed to see hope. "Qingqing, about your life experience......" He continued to probe, the topic became deeper and deeper, and it could even be said that he was only running to the death hole.

"Brother Lin Yan!" Lin Qingqing suddenly shouted. "One last time, I beg you, can you stop mentioning these things?" Her tone softened instantly.

It turned out that Lin Yan knew more than she imagined, Lin Qingqing closed her eyes, and tears poured out from under her closed eyes. Something called humiliation flowed through her veins, down her veins and down her heart.

Sure enough, Lin Yan succeeded. There was a grim smile on his face, but it was fleeting in the next second. "Qingqing, I need your help." He's starting to make conditions. Since his sister is so capable, she can have a good relationship with Ou Yuanlan, and she can successfully become Mrs. Ou, so why don't he make good use of it.

Desire is like a ball that is constantly expanding, it is filled with gas in Lin Yan's heart little by little, and finally, it covers all his conscience. In fact, people's changes are not achieved overnight, but in the three years in the United States, he knew how important it is to be strong.

Lin Qingqing knew that all this was not so simple at all. There was a sad smile on her face, or perhaps despair. "Lin Yan, in the end, what you see is the surplus value on me." The tears on her face hadn't dried yet, but she couldn't help but have more tears in her eyes.

For a moment, Lin Yan's heart trembled. Then, a deeper ice appeared under his eyes. "Qingqing, you have no choice." He turned his head and continued to threaten.

The incident a long time ago was not caused by their mistakes, but they were the mistakes themselves. Once a mistake is made, there are only two outcomes. Either be honest and reckless. Either eliminate, no matter the cost.

Tears poured out of Lin Qingqing's eyes again, covering her entire little face. "Say it." Her voice was weak.

"I want the development plan in the west of the city to fail, and I want Ou Yuanlan to lose under my hands." Lin Yan was blunt. He knew that Lin Qingqing had a handle in his hands, so no matter what happened now, she would keep it a secret.

Sure enough, for the sake of profit, Lin Qingqing felt that his eyes were very sour. "Does it have to be like this?" She struggled last.

There was no sound in the hallway, and the two men stood facing each other, both twisting their faces to the side. Before the voice-activated light was about to go out, Lin Yan finally opened his mouth. "This is the last time, and after this time, I will no longer persecute you." This also seems to be his compromise.

Lin Qingqing closed her eyes, she only felt a tearing sensation spreading in her chest. It was as if her internal organs had been cut open with a knife, and then twisted together in a mess.

Without waiting for Lin Qingqing's answer, Lin Yan was leaving. "Qingqing, think about it." He still has a warm appearance, glasses with gold rimmed, and a simple black blazer. But seeing the pair of black leather shoes walking in, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but want to hide.

Finally, before she could dodge, Lin Yan handed her a handkerchief paper. "Let's wipe it." After being forcefully stuffed into Lin Qingqing's hand, he turned around and left without looking back.

Looking at the handkerchief paper that was crumpled in his hand, Lin Qingqing's tears came again. She still remembers that when she was in high school, when she was in class, the Lin family sent someone over to tell her the news of her mother's death.

Lin Qingqing was still young at that time, and she didn't know anything, only crying. When I think that from now on, when she is alone in this world, I can't suppress the feeling of wanting to cry.

When Lin Yan came to see her, she was squatting in the corner crying. At that time, Lin Yan also took out a handkerchief, but unlike today, he was squatting on the ground at that time, helping Lin Qingqing dry his crying dirty little face little by little.
