Chapter 22 Hostility
"Dong dong dong..."

Lin An frowned when he heard a knock on the door.

Before he could speak, the door opened with a "click" sound.

Then, when he saw Luo Lai's familiar face, he felt a little surprised.

"Why did Luo Lai come to me? Does she have something to tell me?" Luo Lai's appearance surprised Lin An, and several questions came to mind.

But Lin An didn't show it at all on the surface. Lin An looked at Luo Lai and asked, "Sister Luo Lai, do you have anything to do with me?"

Luo Lai ignored Lin An, turned around and closed the door, locking it from the inside. Then he walked straight towards Lin An and stopped more than 20 centimeters in front of Lin An.

Lin An felt that the other party was unusual and became wary.

Within this distance, Lin An could clearly smell the aroma emanating from Luo Lai.

Luo Lai stared at Lin An for a moment, then slowly asked: "What is your purpose?"

Lin An was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Sister Luo Lai, I don't know what you are talking about."

Luo Lai snorted coldly and said, "Don't think I don't know! Do you think you can inherit part of your uncle's inheritance through this method?! I tell you, it's impossible!"

Lin An was silent for two seconds, then raised his head, looked at Luo Lai seriously, and retorted: "Who said I want to inherit the inheritance? Sister Luo Lai, I have no blood relationship with Aunt Ruoxi. Even if my uncle has the inheritance, it won't be my turn. Come and inherit.”

Lin An also understood at this time why Luo Lai had not said he would come back for dinner before, but he suddenly came back during dinner.

It turned out that she had learned about Lin An and was worried about him competing for the inheritance.

Luo Lai stared at Lin An with his eyes, as if he was judging the authenticity of Lin An's words.

Seeing this, Lin An repeated his words again.

Luo Lai still stared at Lin An closely for a long time, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You didn't lie to me?"

"Of course!" Lin An affirmed.

"That's why I wrongly blamed you." Luo Lai suddenly laughed, reached out and patted Lin An on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "To express my apology, I will invite you to dinner tomorrow night, you won't refuse, right? "

As he said that, Luo Lai looked at Lin An with burning eyes.

"Uh... of course not." Lin An was a little unsure of Luo Lai's thoughts, so he had to agree.

"This is what you promised, I'll remember it!" Luo Lai seemed very happy when he heard Lin An agreed, and then walked outside, shouting as he walked: "Don't forget it!"

Looking at Luo Lai's back disappearing at the door of the room, Lin An sighed slightly and said to himself: "Women are indeed difficult to deal with..."

Maple Leaf City on the other side.

It was already around two o'clock in the evening. Except for the entertainment area in the city's central district, there were fewer pedestrians and fewer vehicles on other streets. The street lights were shining softly, making the quiet streets even more dim.

And on such a silent night, in a certain abandoned factory.

Because the environment here is dilapidated, dirty and remote, generally no one wants to come here.

This abandoned factory is about [-] square meters, surrounded by low and dilapidated factory buildings.

At this time, inside the factory, a man stood there with a respectful expression, as if waiting for something.The man was dressed in black, with a lean build, dark skin, and a little bloodshot eyes.

Suddenly, there was a slight movement from deep inside the factory.

The man immediately straightened his back and looked respectful.

A moment later, a woman wearing a black robe and a hood slowly walked out of a dilapidated factory building.

"Boss." When the man saw the person coming, he hurriedly bent down and said respectfully.

The woman glanced at the man indifferently, and then walked straight outside the factory. As she walked, she asked, "How did things go?"

The man quickly said: "Don't worry, boss, I have done everything according to your instructions."

The woman in black robe slowed down a little, turned her head, glanced at the man, and asked, "Are you sure there is no news?"

"Absolutely not. Except for Mark, all the people who escaped were silenced without leaving any traces." The man said confidently.

After listening to his words, the woman in black robe nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well done! You did a very good job on this matter. Unlike Mark, that loser, who couldn't even handle a little kid and almost killed himself." Get in."

"Boss, what should we do with Mark?" the man asked hesitantly.

The woman in black robe waved her hand and said: "Forget it, after all, we met once and he has done a lot for me. Let's give him a chance to atone for his sins and let him go to Katowice to continue dealing with that kid. As for whether he can come back alive, it depends on fate."

"I understand." The man said and stepped aside.

The woman in black robe walked farther along the factory wall and quickly disappeared into the night.

After the woman in black robe left, a ferocious smile suddenly appeared on the man's face. He returned to the abandoned factory and walked out with a figure covered in blood.

"Bang!" The man threw it away and dropped the figure in his hand to the ground.

If it weren't for the figure's chest rising and falling slightly, no one would be able to believe that this was a living person.

Seeing this figure, the corner of the man's mouth curved, then he squatted down, patted Mark's face with his hand, and said, "Mark, you are lucky, otherwise, you would be dead!"

Mark was lying on the cold ground, his whole body was covered in scars, and blood was dripping down his body. He was dying, and his breath of life was extremely weak.

"Ahem..." Mark opened his eyes with difficulty, then breathed heavily, looked at the man, then glanced at the shabby environment around him, and said weakly: "Jesse...you..."

The man named Jesse sneered, ignored Marco, and repeated what the woman had told him before.

After finishing speaking, Jesse said sadly: "Mark, this is your last chance. I hope you won't let your boss down!"

With that said, Jesse walked out, but before he walked out of the factory, he took something out of his arms and threw it in Mark's direction, and it fell right in front of Mark.

Mark struggled to open his eyes, then turned his head with difficulty and looked at the thing that fell on the ground.

What fell on the ground was a round light blue pill with the English letter 'X' written on it.

Mark's expression changed several times when he saw the pill.

He moved his body with difficulty, picked up the things tremblingly, opened his mouth that was overflowing with blood, and then swallowed the pills into his belly.
