As the voice from outside the door fell, the person also walked in.
He was a man in his forties, dressed in a suit and leather shoes. His eyes carried a clear hint of mockery, and a sneering smile played on his lips.
"Lin Xiaotian, I originally suspected that this matter had something to do with you. I never expected it to be you. Master Liu was just a tool for me to use. I've come here today to strike a deal with you."
"Even if you don't hand over Master Liu, I won't let him off."
"Consider this me preemptively catching a spy for your Chu Group. This is of great benefit to you."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaotian's smile became even more pronounced. "You're trying to turn my people against me, and you tell me this is catching a spy for me?"
"Why don't you say that after I ransacked your house and stole everything, the money I spent was for charity?"
Lin Xiaotian said with a half-smile, "And you don't even introduce yourself after coming in, just spewing this useless nonsense. Do you think this young master is a patient person?"
The man's smile grew even more obvious.
His gaze also became more mocking. "Lin Xiaotian, I know what you're planning, aren't you going to tear me limb from limb?"
"But before you do anything, you'd better think carefully about whether the people around you will be implicated."
"Moreover, you know nothing about me, while I know you very well. I am in the shadows, and you are in the light, the one being spied upon at my will."
"Since I dare to show myself before you today, it proves that I have a way to deal with you, and I can even make you willingly become a tool in my hands."
After speaking, he swaggered and sat down on the sofa, a hint of smugness in his eyes.
Lin Xiaotian smiled and said, "Come, tell me who gave you this confidence?"
"If you can't give me a satisfactory explanation today, and you can't make me willingly be your tool, then prepare to endure the ultimate torment this world has to offer. This young master won't give you any chances."
"Even if the person behind you has heaven-defying power, I can still easily crush you."
"Then I'll go and uproot the person behind you. I hate it the most when people threaten me with my friends and family. You've crossed my bottom line."
The man chuckled and opened his palm. A small bug flew up from his hand.
After circling him once, the bug landed on his shoulder.
"Lin Xiaotian, you are a smart person, and I know your information very well. Seeing this little bug by my side, you should know who I am, right?"
"Someone from the Song family?" Lin Xiaotian had been waiting for them to come to him.
He just didn't expect them to find him first instead of going after Bai Wuji.
This surprised him a little, but his smile became even brighter. "This young master was already waiting for you, but you guys just walked right into the trap."
"If you had gone directly to Bai Wuji, perhaps this young master would have been a little gentler with you. But now that you've come directly to me, and spoken so disrespectfully, playing these little games with me."
"This young master finds you very displeasing, and the consequences will be severe."
A cold laugh appeared on the man's face. "Lin Xiaotian, how dare you speak so arrogantly in front of me, Song Hui? Do you really think I'm a pawn that can be easily manipulated?"
"I'm giving you a chance now. Hand over the secrets you hold immediately, and perhaps I can make your death a little more pleasant."
"Don't doubt my words, I'm not joking. I'm very interested in the secrets you hold."
"Especially that jade pendant, how did you make it?"
Lin Xiaotian smiled and shook his head. "Some things, even if I tell you, you won't be able to make them. After all, fools like you are not worth mentioning in front of me. And as I said, I'm in a very bad mood right now."
As his voice fell, he suddenly took a step forward, moving like lightning directly in front of Song Hui.
Then, he raised his hand and brought it down.
"Slap! Slap!"
The crisp sound of slaps rang out, twice in succession.
Song Hui didn't even have time to react. He only saw a blur in front of him, and a figure had appeared on his face.
When he felt the stinging pain, a bloody taste filled his mouth, and his eyes were filled with disbelief as he stared foolishly at Lin Xiaotian.
"You dare to hit me?"
"Do you know the consequences of attacking me?"
"I was prepared before I came. If you attack me, your friends and family are secondary. The most important thing is the employees in this company. They will be bathed in blood the moment they fall, and the ones who will kill them are the蛊虫 I've spread."
"It seems you don't care about the employees of your company at all. Since you want them to die, I will fulfill your wish now."
The anger in his heart was burning. He had been planning for this day for a long time and hadn't gone after Bai Wuji because the core of all problems lay with Lin Xiaotian.
He had prepared to get straight to the point, but he never expected Lin Xiaotian to be so unpredictable, resorting to slaps right away.
These two slaps truly ignited his rage, and he lost the desire to play games.
He took out a strangely shaped jade flute from his person.
Just as he was about to bring it to his lips to blow, the jade flute in his hand suddenly disappeared.
He froze for a moment, instinctively looking at Lin Xiaotian, and then saw the flute being idly played with in Lin Xiaotian's hand, his smile becoming even more pronounced.
Lin Xiaotian said with a smile, "I originally thought that your Song family had profound research in the art of蛊虫. Now, this young master realizes that you are still at such a primitive stage."
"To this day, you still need sound to control those蛊虫. It's simply extremely backward."
"I really want to know, if you lose this jade flute, can you still control those bugs? If you can't, this young master doesn't mind beating you severely, and teaching you how to play with bugs."
"You can't even manage your own old trade, yet you come out to threaten people. It's like looking for a lantern in a toilet."
Song Hui gritted his teeth and said, "If you have the guts, give me back the flute!"
"I will definitely show you what the extreme of painful death is."
