Chapter 919: Chapter 919
But unexpectedly, that day, the woman who hadn’t visited for a very, very long time suddenly took the initiative to come over.
“Xiaojin, is your husband at home?”
“Ah… Aning? Yes, he’s here.” Likewise, Xiaojin was incredibly shocked to see her.
Hurriedly, Xiaojin went inside to report, and then, Lin Yebai in the study saw the girl who indeed looked much better, come in.
“Brother Lin…” She came in, saw him, and greeted him as she used to.
Lin Yebai trembled slightly upon hearing it, almost letting the ink drop onto the rice paper…
How long had it been since he last heard her call him that?
He secretly took several deep breaths, calming the excitement within him, then put down his pen and looked at her quietly: “What brings you here today? Have you eaten?”
The girl standing in front of him nodded: “Yes, I came to check in and to really thank you for what happened that day.”
Was she really thanking him?
Lin Yebai was caught off guard, not quite accustomed: “It’s nothing, as long as you resolved it. Is there something you need today?”
Seeing her in good spirits, he didn’t want to ask more, fearing discomfort if he probed further, so he took the initiative to ask her purpose.
Sure enough, upon hearing his question, the girl spoke: “I just wanted to come and ask, if I want to get evidence of Ou Qichang and Hu Zhiming murdering my parents, what do you think is the best way?”
Evidence?
Was she not going to take revenge herself? Was she going to send him to jail? A public trial?
Lin Yebai looked at her in some surprise: “Do you… want them to be brought to justice?”
Ye Ning nodded: “I’ve thought about it. If I kill him, it would only take his life, but if I send him to court, his shameful acts will become publicly known. By then, he will be ruined and have nothing left, which would be the best revenge for us, the Ye Family.”
Lin Yebai: “…”
Though that made sense, deciding to do this suddenly doesn’t seem like too quick a change?
He looked at her quietly: “That’s not a bad method, but since it’s been so many years, I’m afraid it will be very difficult to find evidence.”
“That’s why I’m here to ask you if there’s a good method?” Ye Ning was also looking at him, her gaze like water, but the light within was incredibly firm.
Seeing this, Lin Yebai felt a trace of sorrow, and he withdrew his gaze…
“Then put out a reward. On this path, once you issue it, you won’t fear not finding what you want.”
“You mean…”
“You can use your name, Phoenix Blue Ink, and say whoever can help find evidence of the Ye Family massacre years ago will be rewarded, but I must remind you, the people on this road are not ordinary, they will demand a lot.”
“Approximately how much?”
“Tens of millions at the very least, and there will be introductions from friends too, so you’ll have to manage that. You’ll owe them favors.”
Ye Ning stood there pondering for a moment…
Tens of millions?
She had already put the Phoenix Blue Ink seal up for auction, and if she estimated correctly, the money should be enough.
So at the moment, she agreed, told him that once she raised the money, she would let him handle it, as she didn’t understand the rules and market within.
Lin Yebai of course wouldn’t refuse, he watched her as she left, and then resumed writing…
