Chapter 11 – Who Says Corpses Must Always Be Dealt With?
Lin Yaoyao immediately answered the phone.
“How did you know?” As soon as the call was answered, a serious voice came from the other side.
“Know what?” Lin Yaoyao pretended not to know.
“What are you pretending for? Don’t forget you were raised by me!” Her father’s voice sounded stern.
“So … Dad, are those things really real?” Lin Yaoyao continued on the phone while looking at Ling Tian.
So, everything is indeed real!
The people from that era all knew about this!
“Stop talking. Where are you now?” Her father on the other end of the line said. “I’m coming to find you! In person!”
“Right now?” Lin Yaoyao hesitated and quickly said, “It’s so late; maybe tomorrow?”
“Don’t waste time. Right now! Do you know you might be in danger?” Her father’s voice was exceptionally serious.
Lin Yaoyao hesitated for a moment and then said, “I’m at home right now.”
“Good! Stay where you are, don’t go anywhere!” Her father on the other end of the line said before hanging up.
“This …”
Lin Yaoyao looked at her phone and didn’t know what to do for a moment.
She then glanced at Ling Tian and furrowed her brow, “My dad is coming to find me now. What should I do?”
What if father is really a Puppeteer? Will he … will he kill me?
Her own biological father killing her; just thinking about it is too terrifying, right?
How would he kill her?
If he’s a sadistic Puppeteer, would he torture her before killing her, making her wish for death?
And then, would he split open her skull to take out her brain?
It’s too scary …
What should she do?
Lin Yaoyao looked at Ling Tian, her eyes filled with a plea for help.
But as she looked at Ling Tian’s expressionless face, she suddenly calmed down.
This guy … he’s so powerful, will he protect her?
“You … don’t go anywhere either. Just stay here with me, okay?” she said immediately.
All the previous vows she had made were thrown out the window …
How could she not care about Ling Tian anymore? It’s impossible!
“I have no intention of going anywhere!” Ling Tian nodded indifferently.
“Okay, if my dad is a Puppeteer, you must help me!” Lin Yaoyao took a deep breath.
“If he’s a powerful Puppeteer, I’ll kill him,” Ling Tian said nonchalantly.
Because weak Puppeteers weren’t worth his time!
With this statement, Lin Yaoyao hesitated.
If her father is a Puppeteer, does that mean she has to … kill him?
He’s her father, the one who raised her from childhood!
Can she really make herself do it?
“Worthless!” At this moment, Ling Tian said two words.
He seemed to be very annoyed by Lin Yaoyao’s inability to make tough decisions.
“I …,” Lin Yaoyao’s brow furrowed even more.
Anyone would be in a dilemma, right?
Also …
“Kill him? It seems like you’re saying it so casually!” Lin Yaoyao continued to ask, “Do you often do such things? Have you killed Puppeteers before? How many?”
“Thousands, I’ve lost count,” Ling Tian replied.
He probably killed more Puppeteers than anyone else in the world!
Upon hearing Ling Tian’s indifferent response, Lin Yaoyao was once again taken aback.
Thousands?
So many?
She suddenly understood why this guy was so taciturn.
The quietness in his character wasn’t due to introversion or aloofness; it was the result of extensive experience in life and death struggles!
That’s why he appeared so cruel and composed, with such deep, profound eyes!
It’s the result of enduring cruelty and maintaining composure through countless killings!
Lin Yaoyao found that she seemed to understand Ling Tian a bit more, but he became even more mysterious to her.
What had this young man been through?
How much killing had he endured to develop that kind of gaze and demeanor?
It was unimaginable!
Furthermore, in fact, he didn’t have any scars or tall walls in his heart; this was just his inherent nature!
This nature was honed by experiencing countless battles.
Damn it, she had been thinking about consoling him and getting closer to him to soothe his inner wounds …
She was too naive!
“What … you shouldn’t harm him if my father is a human!” Lin Yaoyao continued, “Our relationship needs to be explained clearly! I just rented the house to you, you’re just my tenant, and there is nothing between us! Everything that happened before … let’s just pretend it didn’t happen!”
As she said this, she began swearing again.
There will absolutely be nothing between her and Ling Tian in the future!
After all, Ling Tian has no intention of taking responsibility, so why should she cling to him?
“I had no intention of going anywhere!” Ling Tian nodded indifferently.
