Chapter 21 - Interrogation

Lin Luo replied, "This fish looks delicious. Why don't you eat some too?"

"I don't eat such things…" Lin Ying blurted out. Halfway through her sentence, she realized her faux pas, so she tidied her hair and cleared her throat as she said, "No, there's no need. I've already eaten. You can eat it."

Lin Luo smiled.

She raised the basket and pressed her hand on the back of Lin Ying's head.

Her small face just happened to fit right into the basket and come into contact with the tofu fish that was stained with sand.

Lin Ying waved her hands and struggled with all her might.

However, for some reason, she felt weak all over. As she waved her hands, she felt an abnormal sense of heaviness.

"Oh, ah, you, how dare you?!"

When Lin Luo let go, Lin Ying stuck her head out of the basket. Her delicate face was covered in fish and mud, but this couldn't hide Lin Ying's angry expression. "This is the second time! I, I'm going to kill you!"

"Kill me?" Lin Luo easily dodged Lin Ying's clumsy attack and her voice was filled with disdain as she said, "You can try."

Lin Ying's eyes burned with anger as she took out her knife and stabbed at Lin Luo.

Lin Luo tilted her head and dodged the knife, but a few strands of hair were cut off.

The small knife was used to cut fish, so it was damp and gave off a fishy smell.

Lin Luo sniffed the place where her hair was cut. A fishy smell lingered at the tip of her hair.

"Are you afraid now? Kneel down! Kneel down and kowtow to me! Say that you're wrong!" At this moment, Lin Ying no longer had her usual feigned innocence and cuteness. Even though she had a beautiful appearance, it couldn't hide her viciousness and evilness in her.

Her voice was high-pitched and harsh.

She waved the knife back and forth in the air.

"You fool, you'll be trampled under my feet for the rest of your life!"

"You fool, you'll be trampled under my feet for the rest of your life!"

Lin Luo took out her headband and braided her hair. Then, she slowly turned to look at Lin Ying. "Is that so?"

"What are you going to do if I don't kneel?"

"Are you going to kill me? Bring it on."

Lin Luo revealed her neck. "If you stab me, blood will gush out and I'll die."

Lin Ying's hand that was holding the knife trembled slightly.

The tip of the knife was also trembling.

"Are you crazy?" Lin Ying shouted.

Lin Luo suddenly took a big step forward and stood in front of Lin Ying. Then, she grabbed Lin Ying's hand and placed it on her neck. Her voice was gentle as she whispered, "Bring it on, don't you want to kill me?"

"No, no…" Lin Ying's pupils dilated.

She was just boasting.

She had never even killed a fish before, so how could she dare to kill someone?!

Lin Ying retracted the knife.

After Lin Luo pressed Lin Ying's finger bones twice, Lin Ying's entire hand began to go numb. The small knife lost its support and fell to the ground.

"Speaking of which, you contributed to her death." As Lin Luo spoke, she pulled Lin Ying to the large board and lifted it.

Lin Ying only took one look before her body stiffened.

Qiao Sheng! Qiao Sheng was inside!

When he finally saw the outside world, Qiao Sheng tried his best to escape, but every time he wanted to escape, he was pressed back into the pit by Lin Luo.

Lin Ying was so terrified that she couldn't make a single sound. All she could think about was escaping.

She wanted to escape, but Lin Luo was even faster.

With a gentle push, Lin Ying fell into the pit.

Lin Ying struggled in the water. "No, no…"

"Father, Mother, save me, save me!"

Lin Luo sat back in her chair and drank her tea in a leisurely manner. "Yet another person who only knows how to call her parents when she encounters trouble."

After she finished her tea, she dragged the board.

Lin Ying was about to have a mental breakdown. "Lin Luo, aren't you afraid that Grandpa and Grandma will teach you a lesson?"

"I'm our grandpa and grandma's favorite granddaughter. If you dare to bully me, they'll definitely teach you a lesson!"

"They will make sure you're unable to get married!"

Lin Luo shrugged. "What has my marriage got to do with them?"

"However, since you like to complain, I'll give you this chance." Lin Luo pulled Lin Ying out and said with a sneer, "Go back and tell your grandparents that it's time I settle the score with the Lin family."

The reason the original host's parents were in a shipwreck back then was also related to the Lin family.

Lin Ying took deep breaths of fresh air as she sat on the ground.

"Get lost. Or, do you need my help?"

"I-I'll leave myself!" Lin Ying hugged herself as she limped away.

Only then did Lin Luo look at Qiao Sheng, who was struggling in the chili water in the pit. "You're the only one left now. How should I deal with you?"

Qiao Sheng swallowed hard.

"I'm willing to do anything. Please don't lock me up anymore…"

He had underestimated Lin Luo. If he had known that Lin Luo was so terrifying, he would have rather been beaten to death by Yan Su than run to Lin Luo!

Lin Luo rubbed her chin aloofly. "Should I let you clean the pigpen or make you go to sea to catch pearls for me?"

Qiao Sheng had once forced the original host to do all of this.

"How about this? Tell me first, who gave you the courage to come to me time and time again?"

Lin Luo took out a silver needle and pierced it through Qiao Sheng's neck under his terrified gaze.

"Don't act rashly and don't pant heavily. Otherwise, if this silver needle moves, you'll lose your life."

Qiao Sheng held his breath.

"Tell me, why did you approach me and want to marry me?"

The original host couldn't tell, but she could.

Qiao Sheng despised the original host, but he was very adamant about marrying the original host.

Not long ago, Qiao Sheng had told a fortune teller the original host's birth date and horoscope in order to calculate an auspicious time to get married.

"I'll tell you everything."

Qiao Sheng said every word very slowly and with difficulty. "Your parents left you a sum of money. You can only withdraw this money when you go to the bank with your husband after you get married."

"I don't have any bad intentions. I just want that money."

"I really don't have any other designs."

Lin Luo snorted. "How strange. I didn't even know about this, so how did you know?"

Qiao Sheng was speechless.

His gaze became shifty.

"This… I…"

"If you don't want to say it, so be it." When Lin Luo reached out to touch the silver needle, Qiao Sheng said, "I'll tell you, so don't move. I didn't say I wouldn't say it!"

Qiao Sheng closed his eyes, then gritted his teeth and revealed everything.

"It's Lin Ying. Lin Ying told me about this. She even asked me to give her some money after it was done. I agreed."

Lin Luo pursed her lips.

In that case, things made sense.

In the past, Lin Ying usually ignored Qiao Sheng. However, Qiao Sheng and Lin Ying started hanging out often all of a sudden. Not long after, Qiao Sheng expressed his intention to marry the original host.

"You guys have quite a good plan," Lin Luo said.

Qiao Sheng didn't dare to refute. He shrank his head as he said, "Can you take out these silver needles? You've already pierced them through me. Will I die?"
