Chapter 258 - Eavesdrop

Di San and Si Shui felt a chill on their spin when they saw Feng Er\'s devious smile. It\'s as if they have seen something they shouldn\'t have seen and so they immediately looked away.

Fortunately, Feng Er seemed to not have noticed their evasive reaction as she spoke. "I think paranoia is inherent in the Lin family." She said. "First, it was Lin Yuxiu. Then, it was her daughter. Naturally, their paranoia was triggered of their excessive love towards their husband to the point they wanted to possess all of him." She took a sip of water before she continued. "She becomes excessively jealous with other women approaching her husband, disregarding their intentions. I concluded it is paranoia." She explained.

Di San and Si Shui finally felt they were enlightened.. "So, the females in the Lin family inherits paranoia in their genes…" they said. "Then, maybe, we can – " they looked at each other before they turned to Feng Er with widened eyes.

Feng Er\'s brows raised before she grinned. "Is it what I am thinking?" she asked as she combed her long, silky black hair with her fingers.

"En. A honeytrap." Di San and Si Shui answered.

"Count me in, then." Feng Er winked.

East Pavilion, District 4.

"Lao Xie. He\'s the one I told you last night in the call." Jonathan Baurne said as he motioned to the young man standing upright behind him. "He is Raymond Chase\'s former bodyguard, Yi Ling. He knew some secrets of Raymond Chase." He told Lao Xie.

Lao Xie is an old man with white hairs. However, after he left the world of light and plunged into the world of darkness, he felt more relaxed. And so, he doesn\'t look like he\'s already sixty-eight years old and just looked like he was in his late fifties. Even his skin is not that wrinkled. "Yes. Some of my people have encountered some problems with Raymond Chase lately. This young man\'s arrival is like a timely rain." He said, his tone casual but it has some hidden meaning.

The young man behind Jonathan Baurne frowned while Jonathan Baurne laughed. "Why would I calculate you, Lao Xie? There\'s only me and my nephew left in my family. You could say, I am relying on you." He told him as he poured Lao Xie\'s cup with tea. "Raymond Chase is also an idiot. How can he scheme against you?" he asked.

Lao Xie didn\'t answer and just looked at the young man named Yi Ling. "My people encountered a problem with Raymond Chase. He won\'t sign some documents because of his fucking temper. He\'s more temperamental than a woman having her monthly period." He said.

Hearing his words, the young man\'s expression eased.

"If you\'re his former subordinate, how do you think I can deal with this problem?" Lao Xie asked.

The young man\'s handsome brows knitted. "His weakness is women. Just give him a woman." He answered. "Also, because he thought I touched his woman, he kicked his latest favorite woman." He said.

Lao Xie\'s brows slightly raised and a smile formed on his lips, but he hid it with sipping his tea. How can it escape Jonathan Baurne\'s eyes? "So, Lao Xie?" Jonathan smiled.

"He is a good seedling." Lao Xie said.

Joanthan Baurne felt satisfied as he poured Lao Xie\'s cup with tea again. "Yes." Jonathan agreed as he waved his subordinates to leave, including the young man.

With all the people gone, the smile on Lao Xie\'s lips disappeared. "Is it because of xiao Ling?" he asked Jonathan.

Jonathan\'s expression looked heavy and tired. "En." He nodded. "He reminds me of xiao Ling. Same dedication, but just different personality." He honestly answered. "If they have the same personality, I\'d doubt xiao Ling reincarnated to him." He joked, but none of them laughed nor smiled.

Silence fell upon them. "How will you deal with Jason?" Lao Xie asked.

"I – " Jonathan\'s eyes flashed hesitation.

"I know, he\'s your nephew, and you\'ve promised your elder brother to take care of him." Lao Xie said. "Then, what about xiao Ling?!" he asked with anger in his voice.

Jonathan\'s eyes reddened and he lowered his head. "I don\'t know…" he answered as he pulled his hair.

Lao Xie\'s chest heaved up and down as he suppressed his anger. "I know, I am speaking because I am biased with xiao Ling." He said. "However, what will happen if Lu Si sees Jason?" he asked.

Jonathan\'s eyes widened in alarm.

"Earlier, Lu Si held back since we\'re all in the presence of xiao Ling. However, have you thought what would happen if Lu Si captured Jason?" Lao Xie asked.

Jonathan\'s tears finally fell. "… is there no sentiment left between us?" he asked, his voice low. But, his question isn\'t directed to Lao Xie, but to the other person not present.

Yi Ling, or Yi Bing, was listening to them. However, the last part was spoken in a whisper, and Yi Bing can\'t clearly hear what Jonathan said to Lao Xie for Lao Xie to finally stop talking. "Tch." He clicked his tongue and frowned. He really wanted for Jonathan to deal with Jason. Only then would Jason feel how it feels to be betrayed by your family, like what Jason did to Huo Ling.

Because \'Yi Ling\' was always frowning, Jonathan\'s subordinates didn\'t think much of it and just treated it as Yi Bing suffering a loss because of Lao Xie. Then, they saw Yi Bing taking out a small, black notebook the size of a palm. How hardworking. They thought before they left Yi Bing to not disturb him.

If they just know that the small, black notebook is actually the miniature version of Death Note, their soul would fly out of their body because of shock. Yi Bing flipped the pages until he watched again some of Huo Ling\'s memories in this life in the form of videos. He could see that, although they always bicker, but Huo Ling and Jason have a good relationship in the past.

Then, why has it become so bad right now? Yi Bing thought as his brows knitted and he closed the small black notebook. He shouldn\'t have watched the videos again, since he felt agitated again. He held the orange pendant where Huo Ling\'s soul is sleeping and he rubbed it with his thumb and index finger as he pondered.

Suddenly, he heard rushed and thundering footsteps behind him. He turned and saw a tall man with muscular build and is wearing a dark expression.

"Out of the way!" the man told him and pushed him, only for him to dodge the man and slid his foot, making a circle before he appeared in front of the man again.

He didn\'t speak and just blocked the man\'s way.

The man, Lu Si, momentarily paused and raised his brows in appreciation. "You\'re good." He said. "However, I will deal with you later!" he told him before he turned to Jonathan Baurne and Lao Xie afar and walked past him.

Yi Bing, who blocked Lu Si, naturally didn\'t block Lu Si again. It was then that Jonathan Baurne\'s subordinates arrived and surrounded him. "Why didn\'t you block him again?!" they asked, angry.

"Don\'t you know, between the three factions, ours and Lu Si\'s faction have the most hostile relationship?!" another one said.

Yi Bing frowned. "How could I? I know my own strength. He\'s stronger than me." He said and acted dumb and scared, but his words are half-true.

The others fell silent and didn\'t pursue the matter anymore as they left to think of their excuse to Jonathan Baurne later. Yi Bing remained and didn\'t waste a second to them as he immediately listened to the conversation afar when he saw Lu Si finally reached Jonathan Baurne and pulled him up from hi seat, making Jonathan Baurne shocked.

"Where is that bastard?!" Lu Si asked as he held Jonathan Baurne\'s arm in a tight grip.

Jonathan Baurne felt pain but he endured. "You won\'t see him again!" he told Lu Si.

"You still hide that nephew of yours?!" Lu Si said as he glared at Jonathan. "Or, is xiao Ling just a mere tool for you?!" he asked.

"No!" Jonathan answered.

However, Lu Si acted as if he was deaf. "If you hadn\'t picked up xiao Ling, he would\'ve become a vagabond. He would\'ve become my subordinate. He wouldn\'t have died if you just gave him to me! I can take care of him, and he will still be alive at this moment!" he yelled.

Jonathan Baurne\'s tears fell as he forcefully pulled his arm from Lu Si. He knew, his arm must have a purple mark from Lu Si\'s tight grip earlier, but he ignored the pain. "I know… this is all my fault…" he said.

"Jonathan!" Lao Xie cried when he saw Jonathan\'s self-blame and blank eyes. He turned to Lu Si. "Lu Si! Drop it!" he told him.

However, it\'s as if Lu Si didn\'t hear it. "Yes! It\'s all your fault! If you had just given xiao Ling to me when I asked him from you before, he wouldn\'t have died from your own nephew\'s hands!"
