Chen Xun has been separated from the Chen Mansion. The house he lives in now was a reward from His Majesty. It is located on the most prosperous Peacock Street and even occupies half of the street.

In the silent courtyard, the candlelight in the bedroom flickered and was about to burn out.

He listened to An Liang's report with an unclear expression. After a while, he suddenly laughed for an unknown reason and asked in a faint voice, "It's really interesting."

Does she want to tie herself to him?

An Liang bent down and dared not make a sound.

The master looks cold, but in fact he is even colder than he looks. He dislikes trouble. This Miss Lin is hitting the master's sore spot.

"It's interesting."

"It's been a long time since anyone has made up these things for me."

An Liang looked at the dagger with a white blade placed next to his hand, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He thought to himself that if this gentleman really killed the daughter of a court official, it would not be easy to end it.

What's more, Miss Lin's grandfather is not a simple character either.

An Liang said: "Everything Miss Lin said is true, but the tone of her words can easily be misunderstood."

Chen Xun picked up the dagger and started playing with it in his hand: "I see. Didn't you say to find another time to try it again?"

An Liang immediately said, "He has been tied up."

Alas, after following the master for so many years, how could I not understand his intentions? Miss Lin, you just wish yourself good luck.

As An Liang followed him out of the door, he stopped and let his hands fall loosely.

With the sound of the dagger piercing the bone, the subtle noise in the yard finally stopped.

Because of those cases, the people behind these people took risks and tried to get rid of their masters in Kyoto.

But the master is highly skilled in martial arts, and his temperament is rather cold, and he never shows mercy when he attacks.

After hearing the voices stop, he brought Miss Lin here, untied Lin Xi's black bag, lowered his head even more, and bent his waist even deeper: "Miss Lin, my master wants to see you."

Lin Xi looked in the direction he was going, and saw a broad figure in the moonlight, holding a bloody dagger in his hand, his body filled with frost and murderous aura.

An Liang just looked at the two of them and quietly walked out.

"Miss Lin, do you remember what you called me the first time?"

Chen Xun's voice fell into his ears, but he did not turn around. Lin Xi's heart was beating fast, his scalp was numb, and he stammered:

"Uncle."

A gentle and pleasant voice came into Chen Xun's ears, and his eyes were cold.

"I don't believe in Buddha, God, fate or luck. I only believe in myself, Miss Lin..."

As his voice fell, he had already arrived in front of Lin Xi, with the dagger against her neck.

The sticky blood touched her skin, and she couldn't help wanting to vomit. But now that she was like this, she suddenly became afraid of him. "I think Third Master should have found out the right and wrong of what happened that night. Why does he keep making things difficult for a little girl like me?"

Chen Xun did not retract his dagger because of her words, and there was an indiscernible emotion in his dark eyes.

"I just want to confirm one thing."

"Did someone send you to get to me?"

Lin Xi's mind turned pale. Seeing Chen Xun's expression change, his eyes became more determined. He shook his head firmly: "It was just a chance encounter."

"accidental?"

Chen Xun smiled, and this smile made Lin Xi dazed.

It’s so, so beautiful.

Although his reputation in the capital is not necessarily very good, his appearance is one of the best looking.

"I don't believe in coincidence. It's really strange that we meet." Chen Xun was indifferent, his eyes full of the oppressive feeling of a superior.

Lin Xi was forced to be speechless. She clenched her hands, lowered her head, and felt a sore nose. Her tears fell on his dagger one by one. She asked in a choked voice, "Why, no matter what I say, you don't believe me?"

"Why? Why do all of you want my life, want me dead?"

"Chen Xun, what did I do wrong? I just met you twice by chance, why do you want to kill me?"

"I just want to be loved by my family, what's wrong with that? Why?"

This was the question she had always wanted to ask after she died in her previous life, but she died before she could ask it.

This time, Chen Xun made her unable to help but vent all the emotions she had suppressed in her heart. Finally, her tears dried up. She took a deep breath, grabbed his wrist with her backhand, and brought it close to her neck. "Chen Xun, I have never thought of killing you. Not before, not now, and not in the future."

The dagger cut her skin, causing a sharp pain, but she did not flinch. Instead, she cut deeper.

"If you don't believe me, you can come and take my life later, but not now. I still want revenge."

Chen Xun thought of what An Liang had said to him.

Miss Lin's mother died early, and she has lived in her grandfather's house since she was a child. However, her grandfather has a strict personality and is no exception to anyone. If you don't meet his requirements, you won't be allowed to eat.

She was brought back from Yecheng simply because Xu heard that the evil monk could transfer a person's good fortune in life to her daughter.

And her father had no affection for her at all.

Everyone wanted to suck blood from her.

It's just that the things that happened to her happened to be witnessed by him. How could he miss such a coincidence?

Believe easily.

Chen Xun let go of the dagger.

The dagger fell to the ground, but his hand was still in front of her neck.

Lin Xi didn't let go of his hand either.

"In that case, then I understand."

An Liang, who had been waiting outside, received the news from the gatekeeper. His expression was somewhat different. He stood outside the door without disturbing them and asked, "Master, someone from the Lin residence came and said they were here to send a thank-you gift today."

Chen Xun completely let go of his hand, and their hands separated, with the corners of their clothes dancing in the breeze.

"Get out."

Chen Xun's voice was indifferent.

An Liang: “Yes.”

He walked steadily to the door and saw the person waiting outside. After looking at his sticker, he asked, "Today, you are handling a case at the Horyuji Temple, so you can't say you are saving people."

The man was also a shrewd person. Seeing that An Liang had a say in this mansion, he walked a few steps closer and asked, "Today, it was Master Chen who personally saved my eldest daughter. These are gifts of thanks. I would also like to ask you, what exactly does Master Chen think?"

An Liang didn't expect that the Lin family would be so biased, and he didn't say a word.

The man was also waiting, and the atmosphere became awkward if it continued to be so tense.

An Liang sneered: "Take your gift and get out."

The visitor from the Lin Mansion didn't expect that a servant around Mr. Chen Sanye would be so unkind, and his face changed.

"You are just a servant, why do you act like a big shot in front of me..." His eldest uncle is also Xu's confidant, and everyone in the Lin family respects him.

An Liang's eyes were indifferent: "I don't allow you to speculate on my affairs. Close the door."

They were driven out with their gifts. Changbo rolled on the ground for several times, eating ashes, thinking that he should go back and tell his wife as soon as possible.

Humph, this Lord Chen probably has no affection for Miss Lin.
