I am cannon fodder, but I can hug thighs

Chapter 204 Emotional Backlash

"Just think of it as paying for love." Lin Jin didn't care. After all, she really liked this velvet flower hairpin. It was indeed beautifully made by Yin Fushu.

Yin Fushu became famous in the capital after the Zheqinghui incident. Although a velvet flower hairpin sold for one or two taels of silver, many people went to her to buy hairpins, saying that it is easy to get a hairpin but hard to find a soulmate. Yin Fushu was still a gentleman among women.

But unfortunately, Yin Fushu did not continue selling hairpins, and after asking for a long time, everyone still did not know where Yin Fushu lived.

Xi Lilong took the envoy to the Dali Temple. Her father was the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, so the two of them would definitely meet.

She handed the person over to the official from the Dali Temple in a businesslike manner without much greeting, just like when she went to court every day. Even if she met him, she would only greet him like an ordinary colleague.

"Xiao Qi." The Dali Temple Minister suddenly called out to Xi Lilong.

She paused, as if she had hesitated for a long time, but she just stood there without turning around: "My Lord is confused."

Xi Qi is dead.

"Your mother has been missing you these past few years, and her health is not good." A heavy sigh sounded behind Xi Lilong, "You are angry with me, but do you even deny your mother?"

Xi Lilong looked back at his father: "Really? Then why haven't I received a single letter from home in the past three years? Not even a single word. Are you missing Xi Qi or the current Xi Long?"

She was never a three-year-old who could be easily fooled.

"Were you really worried that I would die on the battlefield and cared about my life, or were you afraid that if I died I would not bring honor to my family, or even bring shame to my family and make the Xi family a laughing stock?" There was no sadness or joy in Xi Lilong's eyes, as if he was just stating a normal fact.

"With your talent and strategy, you can be a female official..."

"But I don't want to." Xi Lilong interrupted him, "I was born to be on the battlefield. The battlefield is the best for me. Father, you probably don't know that the happiest moment for me is to trust my comrades with my back and kill the enemy on the battlefield."

Perhaps this is why she cannot become a qualified daughter of the Xi family.

"I have been trying to convince myself since my sister passed away, but I have suppressed it for too long. After all, I am not my sister." Xi Lilong turned and left, completely giving up his thoughts.

At night, Hulufei died suddenly in the Dali Temple cell, and other envoys almost suffocated to death.

Because Lin Jin lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Tu Huaining moved in without any hesitation. He did not treat Song Shiqiu as an outsider at all, but treated it as his own home.

When Lin Jin heard the news of Hulu Fei's sudden death, she felt bad: "Huai Ning."

"No." Tu Huaining directly rejected what Lin Jin was about to say next, "I regretted not poisoning everyone in the Lin Mansion earlier, so I left trouble for the future. No matter what, I will not listen to you on this matter."

Lin Jin held his forehead with his hand: "I..." What should I do if I want to refute but I am powerless?

"Why do you always leave this kind of trouble!" Tu Huaining stood up suddenly, "Hasn't the loss you suffered from Lin Lin been enough?!"

"Huai Ning, this is not called leaving trouble behind." Lin Jin quickly pulled Tu Huai Ning and poured her some tea to calm her down. "Because the standard for judging whether a person is wrong is behavior rather than thoughts. If it was Song Shiqiu who did it, I would think it was reasonable because he must be considering it from the perspective of the entire Da Xia. But Huai Ning, are you?"

Tu Huaining was not like that. Tu Huaining killed Hulufei because of himself.

"If it's just that Hulufei wanted to beat me today, she was wrong, but this is not a crime punishable by death, understand?"

"Do you think Song Shiqiu is kind? Do you know how many people died at his hands?" Seeing her comparing herself with Song Shiqiu, Tu Huaining snorted in dissatisfaction, "You treated him more than that back then."

"Has Song Shiqiu ever killed innocent people?" Lin Jin was helpless.

Tu Huaining was stunned. She looked at Lin Jin: "Are you blaming me? Are you blaming me for those people?"

"I don't blame you, I just think you can... maybe we can forgive each other while we can?" Lin Jin tried to persuade Tu Huaining.

"No, either they don't come to provoke me, or why should I spare them?"

Lin Jin knew that Tu Huaining was not so easy to persuade: "Then let's put it another way. What if one day I have a dispute with someone else, and the other party wants to kill me like you do?"

"Then I will make her regret it and let the people she cherishes die in the most painful way in front of her." Tu Huaining took out a bottle of medicine, "I have many ways to torture people."

Ever since she gave the box of poison to Lin Jin three years ago, she had no intention of hiding her temper anymore and spoke about it more openly.

Lin Jin felt a little cold: "Huai Ning, am I unable to persuade you?"

"Cousin, you don't understand human nature. Good people are good people, and bad people are bad people. People who want to harm others will not give up on harming you just because you are a good person. A truly good person will not turn bad because of a few words." Tu Huaining's eyes were cold. Three years ago, her face was still a little childish, but now that she has grown up, the coldness between her eyebrows can no longer be suppressed.

Lin Jin groaned. She felt that what Tu Huaining said was right, but that was not what she meant. She felt as if her concept had been changed.

"Just like today, Hulu Fei almost beat you up, but you still come to persuade me for her sake." Tu Huaining put down the medicine bottle in his hand, on which was written the words "100 Days of Heartbreak". "Good is good, evil is evil. A bad guy will not be merciful to you just because you let him go. He will only think about how to harm you next time."

So just kill him, just do it.

Lin Jin sighed heavily. She felt a headache and wanted to persuade him but she had no way to do it.

"I'm not afraid of the world hating or fearing me. I just want to make sure you and Liu Zhengqing are safe." Tu Huaining has always known what he wants in his heart.

No one can hurt her family. If her family members kill each other, she will kill the person who provoked the conflict.

Tu Huaining's words left Lin Jin speechless. She tossed and turned in bed at night, unable to fall asleep. She tried to hypnotize herself that she would go to the saline-alkali land tomorrow, but even after drinking the exchanged dream water, she could not fall asleep peacefully.

[Host, are you worried?] The system, which had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke, [We have detected that your emotional fluctuations are quite different from usual. Does the host need any help?]

"It's a bit troubling, but you probably can't help." Lin Jin almost forgot that there was a system and sighed helplessly.

What can AI understand?

[The system will do its best to help the host solve the problem. ]

Lin Jin was amused by the system's serious attitude, but soon became depressed again: "I wonder if I am asking too much. I want to do everything. I want to change their fate and correct some of their wrong thoughts, but I have never thought about whether this is really good for them. Maybe... I am asking too much."

[According to the data from the system database, even people who are very pessimistic and depressed every day hope that their lives will be smooth and everything they want will come true.]

[Everyone has his or her own Garden of Eden in his or her heart, but the deviation between ideal life and real life will cause people to have various emotions. ]

[Some people choose to live in pessimism and passively slack off, but others choose to work hard to make their lives closer to their ideal state. ]

[Which type do you think you are? 】

"I feel like I'm somewhere in between." Lin Jin smiled bitterly and covered his head with the quilt in annoyance. "They never asked me for anything, but I always wanted to change them and force things to develop in the direction I want. System, am I greedy?"
