Rose of Heaven

219-220

At half past ten, Lin Jingmo arrived at the downstairs of Cheng Yaosi's apartment.

    When the door staff saw her, they showed a professional and polite fake smile, did not stop her and asked her the purpose of her visit, and diligently sent her to the elevator and helped her swipe the card.

    The elevator slowly closed, and the mirror reflected a cold face.

    In the three hours, she did think about turning herself in. Instead of being manipulated by Cheng Yaosi, she might as well end it herself, but such thoughts were quickly suppressed.

    After all, people really can't have weaknesses.

    Lin Jingmo also tried to think about whether she could dig out some handle from Cheng Yaosi to check and balance. For a long time, she only thought of his private possession of firearms, but unless physical evidence was found, this would not pose any threat to him. Lin Jingmo discovered Cheng Yaosi's cleverness. The way he used to solve problems was always legal and unscrupulous. This was especially true when dealing with the problem of Yuan Jianbang. If she hadn't taken the initiative to expose it, Yuan Jianbang would not have known who killed him when he died.

    All the options were blocked, so the only solution was to temporarily agree to Cheng Yaosi and then look for a chance to get out.

    However... the elevator reached the top floor, and Lin Jingmo stared ahead with dark pupils. Why was it Cheng Yaosi who was standing opposite her this time

    ? If he had not escaped death from the pursuit of Yuan Jianbang, if he had not done so much for her, she would have regained her selfishness and cruelty, and would have naturally held a knife to him, instead of being undecided like now.

    She knew in her heart that compared with her backstabbing, Cheng Yaosi's little reward was nothing.

    The heavy armored door at the end of the corridor was open. Lin Jingmo thought of the staff who had greeted her downstairs early. This confidence that she would come was very Cheng Yaosi.

    She stepped in slowly, and the auntie at the door was waiting there, preparing slippers for her.

    They were almost exactly the same as the pair she wore that day, black satin, with gold embroidery.

    So the uneasiness at that time was not groundless. Look, less than 24 hours later, it's back on her feet again.

    The moment her feet stepped on the soles of the shoes, her heart, which had been fluctuating all the way, seemed to settle down. Lin Jingmo suddenly felt a sense of acceptance of her situation.

    Just like when you were a child taking an exam, if the other person scored 20 points higher than you, you might still want to struggle in your heart, but if the other person scored 200 points higher than you, struggling would be useless, and you could only find another way out.

    After Lin Jingmo changed her shoes, her aunt led her to the entrance and turned back to her small room.

    Only the corner lights were on in the living room, and the entire space was hidden in the dark. A tall man was smoking by the window. From the time she came in until now, he had not looked back.

    Lin Jingmo stood in the brightly lit entrance, moving step by step until she was swallowed by the shadow.

    That bad feeling came up again, and Lin Jingmo broke the silence first: "You can ask someone to let him go."

    Cheng Yaosi looked at her from the window, a long and slender shadow, there were only the two of them in the room, and it would be like this from now on. This made him feel extremely relaxed, and even if Lin Jingmo mentioned Zhou Yanzheng, it did not ruin his mood.
