Rebirth: I Want to Be a Hot Heroine

Nothing happened that night, and Lin Tong was eventually sent to the bedroom by the servant.

She tossed and turned in bed, not knowing what tomorrow would be like, nor how Qin Guanjiu was doing.

Lin Tong was worried about everything and didn't sleep all night.

When he woke up in the morning, the dew wet the windows. Lin Tong watched as it gradually got brighter outside, so he got up and opened the dew-covered window.

At a glance, you can see the entire scenery of the island.

Looking further away, you can see the shaking sea surface, and a faint glow is rising from the sea level, gradually rising.

The golden glow appeared and sprinkled wantonly on the sea surface. The originally deep blue lake water was emitting golden light, like a large piece of shimmering silver foil.

When I came here yesterday, the weather was not so good and the sea water was not this color.

Today I saw the sunrise over the sea.

I don’t know how long it took, but the sun gradually separated from the sea level and jumped into the sky covered with white clouds.

This island is a good choice for a vacation.

Lin Tong left the window and took a hot bath, and all the fatigue of the night disappeared.

The servant knocked on the door and asked considerately, "Ms. Lin, would you like to have breakfast in your room or downstairs?"

Lin Tong thought for a moment and said, "I'll go downstairs to eat."

The servant respectfully left the room.

When Lin Tong went downstairs, Tao An was already there.

That’s right, I’m almost fifty years old and I don’t feel much.

Lin Tong couldn't help but smile faintly. She calmly walked down the stairs and slowly sat down opposite Tao An.

Tao An was reading the newspaper. He caught a glimpse of Lin Tong sitting across from him unscrupulously. He smiled and said, "Good morning."

Lin Tong smiled and said nothing.

After a moment of silence, Tao An said, "The weather is nice today. Your mother said she wanted to go out for a walk. Do you think I should let her go out for a walk?"

"Why ask me this question?" Lin Tong raised his eyes, "You already have the answer, don't you?"

Tao An put down the newspaper without comment, crossed his legs, looked past Lin Tong and stared at the scenery outside the window.

He suddenly sighed, "Your mother hasn't seen such good sunshine for a long time."

Lin Tong was stunned for a moment, and put down his hand that was about to pick up the chopsticks.

This sentence made her realize how long her mother had been imprisoned by Tao An.

Lin Tong forced a smile and said, "The sun is shining. You can see it by opening the window."

"But her room has no windows." Tao An withdrew his distant gaze and looked at Lin Tong.

Lin Tong couldn't imagine how desperate it would be for a person to stay in a windowless and airtight house all day, all month, and all year long.

Even during the days when she was in the mental hospital, she could still look at the light outside through that small window.

Living in such an environment, no matter how strong the mother's will was, it would have been worn down long ago.

Tao An wanted to torture her like this, destroy her will, and erase all her thoughts.

Bitterness spread in the mouth.

Lin Tong's eyes fell on the breakfast brought by the servant, "Then open a window for her, and she won't think about the sunshine outside."

"But you have to know that once a person has seen the sunshine outside, he will not want to watch the sunrise through the window." Tao An picked up the newspaper again.

"So, the best way is to prevent this person from ever seeing any ray of sunshine." He turned a page of the newspaper, a smile on his face, mysterious.

Lin Tong's heart sank, she knew Tao An's answer.

Lin Tong suddenly lost the mood to eat. She pushed aside the exquisite breakfast beside her, picked up the milk and took a sip, then put it down and rubbed the handle of the cup.

The white jade cup had a warm feeling. Lin Tong raised her eyes and said, "But she has seen it. No matter how you deprive her of the opportunity to see the sunshine, that ray of sunshine is always in her heart and can never be erased."

Tao An nodded thoughtfully, "I heard that Tao Ruiyi once injected you with Faith's mind control agent and hypnotized you, but you finally remembered it."

He clicked his tongue twice, "Just like you said, the roots that have already grown in my heart need to be pulled out from my heart."

"But the seed is still in my heart. It will grow sooner or later, right?" Lin Tong was afraid that Tao An wanted to do something to Tong Huaijing, so she hurriedly reminded Tao An.

What he said was nothing more than talking about the importance of Tong Huaijing to Hu Wan. His implication was that he wanted to kill Tong Huaijing, but the only question was how to kill him.

Lin Tong guessed that he might do it in front of Hu Wan, so as to uproot her heart.

Tao An didn't say anything, so Lin Tong continued, "You should know that the most difficult thing in the world is to compete for love with a dead person."

"Do you think I would still consider this kind of thing now? Love is no longer useful to me now, so don't try to convince me to let Tong Huaijing go. He is still useful to me if I keep him." Tao An's voice suddenly became serious.

He had worked hard all his life to get Hu Wan, and he would never dream that Hu Wan would fall in love with him.

You have to get one of the people and the heart, right?

Moreover, how wonderful would it be if Hu Wan saw Tong Huaijing die in front of her?

Tao An smiled, "To be honest, I now understand why Qin Guanjiu fell in love with you. You are smart, wise, calm, and bold. Most importantly, you love him."

"Although I expected him to follow you to see Kashima just for you, it still surprised me." Tao An suddenly frowned as if he thought of something.

Lin Tong suddenly became alert. Why would Tao An mention Qin Guanjiu for no reason?

Lin Tong tightened his grip on the cup and suddenly felt uneasy.

"I almost forgot to tell you why I separated him and you. It's because what I hate most is people like you who are in love, especially Tong Huaijing's daughter." Tao An suddenly laughed twice.

He patted his thigh and said, "It's been a whole night. Don't kill Qin Guanjiu. Bring him here to show Miss Lin."

Tao An's laughter was extremely hearty, but Lin Tong was completely trapped in an ice cellar.

It’s not that she hadn’t thought about Tao An taking action against Qin Guanjiu, but Tao An and Qin Guanjiu had no grudges against each other.

She still underestimated Tao An's abnormal psychology.

Lin Tong felt like she was put into an ice cellar, unable to move at all. She suddenly became afraid.

"Tao An, you can't touch him!" Lin Tong slammed the table and shouted angrily: "If anything happens to Qin Guanjiu, you'll be dead!"

Tao An ignored her, "Don't be impatient, young man. You've only said a few words and you've become so impatient. I just praised you for being calm."

"Tao An! If you have anything to say, come to me. He has no grudge against you! You can't touch him at all!" Lin Tong glared at Tao An, wishing he could throw the milk in the cup at him.

"Lin Tong." A familiar voice sounded.
